Chapter 226 The General's Ex-wife Will Not Remarry 20

Zhou Caixue was awakened by the noise in the yard early in the morning. After opening the door, she found that Yun and Jiang Ling'er did not go to work in the fields today, but were killing chickens in the yard.

She went back to the room, put on her clothes, and washed up with hot water from the kettle before coming out.

Jiang Linger sat on a small stool, plucking the chicken feathers, and asked shyly, "Sister-in-law, did I wake you up?"

Zhou Caixue walked over and asked curiously, "Why are you suddenly killing chickens today?"

These chickens were kept by Yun for laying eggs. She wanted to eat them before, but was not allowed. Why are they suddenly so generous and want to kill the chickens?

Jiang Linger said happily, "Today is Dad's day off, he should be back."

Zhou Caixue suddenly understood.

When Yun saw Zhou Caixue, she subconsciously opened her mouth, wanting to tell her what to do.

However, when he saw the silver bracelet on his wrist and remembered that he had asked her to give him tea and wine yesterday, he swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue.

"Second daughter-in-law, I left breakfast for you in the pot. It's still hot. Go and get it out and eat it yourself."

Zhou Caixue came to the kitchen, opened the pot lid, and brought breakfast to the table.

Today's breakfast is a bowl of white rice porridge, two steamed buns with wild vegetables, and a plate of pickled radish.

Zhou Caixue ate with gusto.

She used to eat delicacies from land and sea, but now and then she would eat some plain porridge and cabbage, which she found quite delicious.

At least she hasn't gotten tired of it yet.

Plus, Yun’s cooking skills are really good, and everything he cooks tastes delicious.

She even suspected that she had gained weight recently.

After breakfast, Zhou Caixue consciously washed her own dishes.

At this moment, Yun's happy voice came from outside the door.

"Boss, you are finally back. We have been waiting for you. Go to the study and read for a while. Lunch will be ready soon."

"You use your brain a lot studying, so I killed a chicken and will make chicken soup for you later."

Zhou Caixue came out of the house and saw a middle-aged man wearing a green scholar's robe, with a slim figure and an elegant appearance.

The man suddenly looked at her, with a dazed look in his eyes.

"Is this the second son's wife?"

Yun blamed him, "You didn't even ask for leave to attend the second son's wedding, it's been almost ten days, and you've only just met his wife for the first time!"

Jiang Weizhou stared at Zhou Caixue's face for a while before looking away.

"pretty good."

Zhou Caixue felt a little uncomfortable and turned back to her bedroom.

Yun asked, "Master, have you had breakfast?"

"Do you want me to make you some breakfast first?"

Jiang Weizhou said, "I've already eaten it when I was in town."

Yun said distressedly, "Food in town is so expensive. Come back for breakfast on your days off. I will prepare it for you in the future."

Jiang Weizhou nodded, but there was a hint of impatience in his eyes.

"it is good."

-

At noon, the family sat together to eat lunch.

Zhou Caixue felt very uncomfortable during this meal.

She always felt that a gaze was falling on her from time to time, but when she looked up, the gaze disappeared again.

Maybe she's overthinking it?

-

In the afternoon, Jiang Xubai finally came back, and Zhou Caixue finally dared to go out.

I don’t know if it’s because she is too sensitive, but she always feels very uncomfortable facing this father-in-law.

To avoid embarrassment, she stayed in the house all day and almost grew mushrooms.

As soon as Jiang Xubai came back, he saw his wife looking at him expectantly, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up.

"Miss me so much today?"

Zhou Caixue did not refute. She looked at the wooden barrel he was carrying with a look of joy on her face.

"Bathtub!"

Jiang Xubai said, "Before the bathroom was repaired, I had no place to put the bathtub. Now that the bathroom has been repaired, I bought the bathtub back."

"You can take a nice bath today."

Zhou Caixue nodded happily.

"it is good!"

She leaned over and kissed Jiang Xubai on the cheek.

"Mr. Sir, thank you!"

Jiang Xubai gave her the money he earned today and said, "We didn't catch much prey today, and I bought a bathtub, so I only have a few dozen coins left."

Zhou Caixue doesn’t think it’s too little.

She counted out half and kept the other half for him.

"Give these to your mother-in-law."

Jiang Xubai went to his parents' bedroom, handed the money to Yun, and then went to the kitchen to boil water.

Not long after, Zhou Caixue finally took a hot bath.

The night was quiet. She sat in the bathtub, her long black hair casually draped behind her. She poured water over her body and hummed an opera.

Suddenly, she seemed to hear faint footsteps outside the window.

I looked back suddenly, but found nothing.

However, she still felt a little uneasy.

Jiang Xubai waited in the room for a while, then came to the bathroom door and knocked.

"Madam, are you not done washing yet?"

Zhou Caixue said nervously, "Husband, come in for a moment."

Jiang Xubai heard that her voice was not right and quickly pushed the door open.

The door was not locked from the inside, so Jiang Xubai could add hot water to Zhou Caixue at any time.

"The water is cold, why are you still soaking in it?"

Zhou Caixue said, "Husband, when I was taking a shower just now, I heard footsteps outside the window, but when I turned around to look, there was no one there."

Jiang Xubai was stunned for a moment.

"It should be Mother or Ling'er passing by."

After a pause, he continued, "Dad has been reading in the study and hasn't come out yet."

Zhou Caixue relaxed a little, but still felt uneasy.

"But the footsteps were clearly deliberately made softer. If it wasn't for the quiet night, I might not have been able to hear them."

"Also, when I turned around, the footsteps suddenly disappeared."

"Is there a thief in the house?"

Jiang Xubai comforted her, "Don't be afraid, I'm here with you."

Zhou Caixue no longer dared to take a bath alone.

"Husband, the water is cold. Please boil some more hot water and take a bath with me."

Jiang Xubai raised his eyebrows.

"When I wanted to take a shower with you just now, you refused to do so."

Zhou Caixue rolled her eyes at him.

"If you don't want to, forget it."

Jiang Xubai smiled.

"With great pleasure."

Zhou Caixue thought it was just a simple bath, but she didn't expect that while washing, this man started to act naughty again. She slapped away his hands that were touching everywhere.

"This is the bathroom!"

Jiang Xubai said, "I locked the door when I came in just now, so no matter what we do, no one else will know."

Zhou Caixue's fair face turned red in an instant!

“Are you a stud?”

"How can it be anywhere?"

Jiang Xubai's eyes were shining.

"There's a bathroom on the fire escape map, so we can try it today."

Zhou Caixue, "..."

"It's good to be open-minded and eager to learn, but you can't learn all kinds of random things. If you put your learning energy into other things, you would have made a lot of progress a long time ago!"

"If you keep learning this nonsense, I'll tear up that book for you!"

Jiang Xubai said regretfully, "Well, the water is getting cold, so I'll let you go today."

"I'll give you a bath."

After taking a shower, the couple returned to their bedroom together.

Jiang Xubai held Zhou Caixue in his arms, feeling the soft jade-like body in his arms, and felt his heart soften as well.

"Tomorrow is market day. Do you want to go to town with me?"

Zhou Caixue asked, "Aren't you going hunting tomorrow?"

Jiang Xubai said, "I will get up earlier tomorrow and check the traps to see if there are any prey. If not, I will come back at noon and take you to town then."

"You must be bored after staying at home for so long."

Zhou Caixue smiled and said, "Uncle Dashu and his friends have been building a hut and a bathroom at home these past few days. I talk to them every day about how to build it the way I want it to be built. It gives me a sense of accomplishment and it's not boring."

"I do want to go to town to do some shopping, though."
