After the system ran, I took off with my family

"Okay, Uncle Ershun, let's leave it at that. Please accompany Aunt Manxiu to eat something. Aunt Manxiu hasn't eaten yet. I'll leave first."

Seeing that Uncle Ershun had expressed his opinion, Lin Shuyue did not dwell on the topic any further and left the room after she finished speaking.

"Well, Ershun, it's getting late, we should go back."

Wang Jiumei pulled Ma Erlian behind her, and when she saw Ershun looking at her, she smiled awkwardly and pulled Ma Erlian out.

Er Shun watched his newlywed wife's family leave in a hurry with an expressionless face and said nothing. He just pulled the somewhat bewildered Wang Manxiu to sit down and picked up food for her without saying a word.

In the yard, Wang Jiumei pulled Ma Erlian out and saw Wang Manxiu's brother Wang Yuanbao, who was wrinkling his face and rubbing his bulging belly. She walked up to him and said, "Yuanbao, let's go home."

Wang Yuanbao's eyes swept across the empty hands of his aunt and second aunt. He curled his lips and muttered softly, "Sister, you are such a stingy person."

Wang Jiumei was close by, and when she heard her nephew's words, she sighed, took Ma Erlian in one hand and Wang Yuanbao in the other and walked out of the yard.

When the excitement behind her gradually faded away, Wang Jiumei finally had time to think about what had just happened. She sighed inwardly, "My second brother's wife must have made a wrong calculation. She can't control this son-in-law."

It turned out that the last time Er Shun went to the Lin family to borrow money, Li saw that the clothes he was wearing had turned white from washing and had some seams, so she took two pieces of good cloth from the warehouse and asked Chunmian and several maids to make him two new sets of clothes, as a token of her love as a sister-in-law.

On the day of delivering the betrothal gifts, Ershun dressed himself up to show his seriousness, put on the new clothes given to him by Li and went to Wang's house.

When Mrs. Liu saw her future son-in-law wearing a suitable silk suit, an idea suddenly came to her mind. She changed her previous aggressive attitude and warmly entertained Lin Ershun.

Last night, she secretly found her two sisters-in-law and asked them to follow her daughter to her son-in-law's house in the name of the bride's relatives when she got married the next day. She asked them to find an opportunity to persuade their daughter to put her parents' family first, and preferably to control her son-in-law.

Wang Jiumei was still lost in her thoughts, and the excitement in Ershun's house was gradually fading away.

Li directed several maids to clean up the messy yard and kitchen after the excitement. The women who came to the banquet also stayed to help voluntarily. Grandma Xiuyin couldn't sit still, so she ran to the kitchen to boil water by herself.

There is strength in numbers. The group quickly cleaned up the yard and the kitchen, and left with Ershun thanking them repeatedly.

After everyone left, Lin Ershun stood in the yard, quietly looking at his home illuminated by red lanterns. Looking at the red light coming through the windows of the new house and the big red "囍" characters on the windows, his heart felt sad.

"Dad, Mom, your son will have a family from now on..."

On the small road under the night sky, Lin Shuyue looked at her parents who were whispering about the wedding banquet in the evening. After thinking for a moment, she decided to tell her parents about what happened in Uncle Ershun's new house so that they would have more idea about it.

"Dad, Mom, when I brought food to Aunt Manxiu in the evening, I heard..." Lin Shuyue told them everything that happened in the evening in detail.

"That's what I was wondering, why did Manxiu's family leave in such a hurry? It turns out something like this happened." After hearing what her daughter said, Li suddenly realized.

"Ayue, don't worry about this. I believe your uncle Ershun will handle it." Lin An patted his daughter's shoulder, thought for a moment, and said solemnly: "Ayue, I know you are doing this for the good of our family, but if you encounter this kind of thing in the future, you can talk to your parents first and don't rush forward on your own." He didn't want his daughter to be talked about behind her back.

Lin Shuyue understood what her father meant. Although she disagreed, she did not refute it and just nodded obediently.

In the bridal chamber, Wang Manxiu looked at her newlywed husband squatting in front of her to wash her feet, her cheeks flushed, "Brother Ershun, why don't I do it myself? I can't let you..."

"It's okay. You and I are one family. There's no need to be so formal." Lin Ershun lowered his head and massaged her feet with moderate strength.

After hearing this, Wang Manxiu no longer refused and just lowered her head shyly.

"A Xiu, I think there are some things I still need to make clear to you."

Lin Ershun, who had his head bowed, suddenly spoke, breaking the silence in the bridal chamber and instantly waking up Wang Manxiu, who was feeling dizzy from shame. "Brother Ershun, you...just tell me..."

Lin Ershun stopped what he was doing, looked up at his newlywed wife who looked a little unnatural, and said softly: "A Xiu, do you remember that I once told you that I escaped from Anqing Prefecture?"

"Yes, you said that before." Wang Manxiu pursed her lips and nodded.

"What I didn't tell you is that if it weren't for An Zi's family, I would have died on the road of fleeing famine."

Lin Ershun sighed softly, "In fact, I followed An Zige's family because I knew that An Zige's family were kind and smart, and they had military power, so I left the Yunhua Village team and followed them.

Along the way, An Zige and his family took care of me. At that time, I had no food to eat, and An Zige let me eat with them without thinking.

Once, the rebels blocked the official road with bows and arrows drawn, wanting to capture refugees like us and send us into the army. It was the three siblings Ayue, Ayuan and Ayan who flew to the front and blocked the rain of arrows for us, allowing us to escape from that cold rain of arrows. If it weren't for them, Gangzi's family and I would have fallen under that rain of arrows like those refugees.

There are many other things like this. We were able to escape death time and time again, all thanks to An Zige and his family."

After that, he looked into his wife's eyes and said in a serious tone: "A Xiu, An Zige and his family are good to me because they value friendship and loyalty, but I can't take their help for granted. To me, An Zige and his family are my adopted parents, so I won't take advantage of their kindness for anyone else."

He didn't say it directly, but he knew his wife must understand what he meant.

"Brother Ershun, I..."

Wang Manxiu was filled with shame at this moment. She had always thought that the reason why the Lin family was so kind to Er Shun was because Er Shun helped them when they were fleeing famine. That was why she spoke to her in the tone of an elder when Lin Shuyue brought in food. Afterwards, she secretly blamed her in her heart for what she said, blaming her for making a fuss and making herself lose face in front of her family.

"Brother Ershun, it's my fault. If I had known, I wouldn't have let Second Aunt come with me. Don't worry, I will respect them like you in the future. If my family has any excessive requests, I will definitely not agree to them."

Lin Ershun looked at his wife's sincere expression and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, he was a little hesitant before saying these words. He was worried that his newlywed wife would think he was blaming her. He didn't expect his wife to be so reasonable.

"Thank you, Xiu, thank you for understanding me."
