The two of them hadn't slept well for several days in the mountains. They would be next to each other's beds, tossing and tossing for a while, and as soon as they relaxed, they both fell asleep with long breaths.

When Zhou Du woke up the next day, Shen Xi was no longer on the bed, he stood up, put on his clothes, and went out to find someone.

But he saw Shen Xi squatting at the door of the room, holding a piece of flesh in his hand, playing with the bean bag casually.

The bean bag that could not bite the flesh and blood was so angry that he almost scratched the ground with his claws, which amused Shen Xi so much that he let out two muffled laughs from time to time.

Seeing the two sticky beanbags, one big and one small, Zhou Du felt warm in his heart, and asked aloud, "Why don't you sleep more?"

Shen Xi probably didn't expect him to wake up so quickly. Hearing his voice, she turned around slightly in surprise, with a little surprise in her eyes: "You're awake."

Seeing Zhou Du, Shen Xi immediately dropped the bone in his hand, stood up, and moved closer to Zhou Du, trying to cling to him.

Even the bean buns on the ground didn't care about the flesh and blood, and jumped directly to Zhou Du's feet, howling to win Zhou Du's favor.

However, it was still one step behind Shen Xi after all, and when it got closer, Shen Xi was already standing in front of Zhou Du.

Zhou Du only had Shen Xi in his eyes. Seeing Shen Xi walking towards him, he didn't even pay attention to the threshold under his feet. He almost fell, so he quickly caught him: "Slow down."

After Shen Xi supported his arm to stabilize his figure, he smiled at him: "It's okay, this little sill won't hurt me."

Zhou Du was a little helpless, and asked him, "Are you hungry?"

"Not hungry, not hungry," Shen Xi waved his hands, walked to the tea table with tea, picked up a bowl of porridge on the table and held it to him, explaining, "I borrowed the store's kitchen to cook this in the morning. I have already eaten the preserved egg and lean pork porridge, but yours tastes good after drying for a while, you can try it."

Shen Xi took a sip by himself as he spoke, and after feeling that the temperature and taste were just right, he took another spoonful and brought it to Zhou Du's lips.

In his expectant eyes, Zhou Du opened his lips without disdain to hold the spoon that Shen Xi had just tasted.

Seeing him eating, Shen Xi asked again with a pair of dark and clear eyes: "How does it taste?"

"Not bad." For the things made by Shen Xi, Zhou Du has never felt bad, and this bowl of preserved egg and lean meat porridge is no exception.

Hearing his admiration, Shen Xi lowered his eyes and laughed crescent moon crookedly: "That's good, this is Cantonese cuisine, I'm afraid you may not be used to it, and I'm a little nervous."

"No," Zhou Du stretched out his hand to take the bowl in his hand, without thinking about it, he said, "You never have to be anxious with me."

Shen Xi originally handed the porridge bowl to Zhou Du, but when he heard his words, he withdrew his hand again, filled another spoonful of porridge with the hand holding the porcelain spoon, raised his head slightly and said, "Zhou Du, I want to You eat, can you?"

"Yes." Zhou Du lowered his eyes, and his crow-like eyelashes swept lightly, as if they were about to sweep into Shen Xi's heart.

Shen Xi slightly raised the corners of his lips, holding the spoon and feeding Zhou Du spoonful after spoonful.

Zhou Du ate the porridge fed by Shen Xi bit by bit, and he couldn't tell what it was like in his heart. He didn't tell Shen Xi that this was the first time he was fed by someone when he was so old.

I didn't expect it when I was a child, and I didn't care about it when I grew up, but Shen Xi used these seemingly insignificant things to get into his heart little by little.

Two people, one eating and the other feeding, neither of them saw the bean bag at their feet waiting to be fed.

Bean Bao was tired of opening his mouth, and he didn't wait for the two masters in front of him to feed him, so he had no choice but to close his mouth, found the bone that Shen Xi had teased with earlier, squatted in the corner, and gnawed and creaked himself.

After breakfast, the two tidied up a bit, checked out the inn room, and headed for the office.

The office is a bit busy today, and the two waited for a while before they arrived.

The people in the office obviously recognized them. As soon as they approached, the gentleman inside said, "It's you."

Zhou Du was still the same, hummed lightly, and stopped talking.

The gentleman asked again: "What's the matter with you?"

With a smile on his face, Shen Xi leaned forward, took out the wolf tail that he had cut for the task from the cloth bag, handed it to him and said: "We just came out of the mountain yesterday, and my husband wiped out all the wolves in Liushu Village. "

Mr. took the tail of the wolf and said in amazement: "So fast!"

It hasn't been long since Zhoudu took over the task, so when he saw the two just now, he thought that the two hadn't entered the mountain yet. Wolf mission.

The husband looked at the wolf tail that Shen Xi handed over, and he, who was still in shock, found it inconceivable.

"That's natural. My husband will definitely succeed immediately." Shen Xi showed a little pride, and took out a wolf skin from the sack that asked the innkeeper for it to show him, "Look, we even We brought back all the wolf skins, a total of fifteen wolves, not one more and one not less."

The gentleman in the office looked at the wolf fur in Shen Xi's hand, and after confirming that it was correct, he nodded: "That's right, it's a real wolf fur."

After seeing the wolf skin, the husband asked someone to go to Liushu Village to verify it.

Waiting here is also boring, Shen Xi simply chatted with her husband: "It sounds easy to enter the mountain this time, but it is actually extremely dangerous."

While doing business, the husband listened to what he had to say, and thought it was interesting, he would reply to him a few words: "What a dangerous method."

Shen Xi immediately showed a look of fear on his face, and boasted: "We didn't find the wolves so quickly. Who knew that the pack of wolves killed a few people and hid in the deep mountains. They may feel that no one can do anything to them. They never They ran out of the mountains to bite people, and we happened to meet them."

"Oh, and then?" The gentleman became interested, put down his pen, and didn't even do his official business.

Shen Xi continued: "Then my husband will fight against more than a dozen wolves alone. That wolf is so cunning, and he bit my husband's shoulder while my husband wasn't paying attention. If it wasn't for my husband's quick reaction, I'm afraid the arm would even be connected to the arm. It's all gone."

Zhou Du saw Shen Xi explaining the whole story with embellishments, and his temples couldn't help throbbing again.

However, every time he talks nonsense, his expression is extraordinarily serious, which makes people unable to arouse any doubts.

Sure enough, the gentleman who was listening vigorously looked at Zhou Du without doubt.

Zhou Du was also indeed injured, his lips were already pale, and this would make him look a little paler, and combined with his stern face, it really looked like that.

After seeing it, the gentleman in the office said in surprise: "It's not serious, have you gone to the medical center to see it?"

"Not yet," Shen Xi shook his head and said worriedly, "Isn't it just waiting to hand in the task and get the money to go and have a look, I hope there won't be any root cause."

The gentleman looked at Zhou Du's shoulder carefully again. Although Zhou Du's wound could not be seen, judging from the way Zhou Du supported it without any effort, it could be seen that no bones and muscles were injured. He comforted Shen Xi. : "Don't worry, your husband is in good health, go home and rest for a while, and he will recover."

Shen Xi forced a smile: "I accept your good words."

Not long after, the person who rushed to Liushu Village for verification came back. Before his horse ran out of Anyang Town, he met several people from Liushu Village.

Yesterday when Zhou Du and Shen Xi came out of the mountains, the people in Liushu Village were all watching. Now he asked if their physical characteristics matched, so he rode back to meet his business.

After verifying that there was no problem, the people in the office were also very forthright. Zhou Du beat fifteen wolves for five taels of silver per wolf, a total of 75 taels, and they paid Zhou Du a lot of money.

In addition, considering that Zhoudu was also injured when he beat the wolf, the husband added an additional three taels of silver for the treatment of the injury.

A total of 78 taels of silver was placed in an indigo cloth bag, which was heavy to hold in my arms.

As soon as he left the office, Shen Xi's face with a forced smile immediately became happy: "Zhou Du, there are three liang of silver too much."

Seeing him happy, Zhou Du was also happy.

Shen Xi hugged the money and smiled crescent-shaped: "It's all right now, I was still worried that you lost a lot because of fighting wolves. With this money, I can buy some supplements for you, and make up for it."

"No need," Zhou Du said indifferently, "It's just a small injury."

How can a wound that sees blood be called a minor injury?

Shen Xi didn't care about Zhou Du, anyway, he had already made a decision in his heart, after returning home, he would cook delicious food for Zhou Du every day, and try to make up for the little blood he lost.

After walking out of the office for a long time, Shen Xi was still excited while holding the silver: "Zhou Du, I have never held such a heavy silver!"

Seeing him gasping for breath, Zhou Du thought that the money was too heavy and tired him, so he stretched out his hand to lift the burden in his arms: "Let me do it."

"No, no need." Considering that Zhou Du's hand was injured, Shen Xi refused to let him carry the money, "I can carry the money even if it is twice as heavy. I am not overwhelmed by the weight. , I am overwhelmed by silver."

Shen Xi has grown up to such a big age, the most money he has ever seen is the year when the house was being built at home, Shen Mu took out all the family property in one go, 50 taels of silver, and he only took one look at the money, and then never saw it again.

But Zhou Du's money is different, he can really touch it, although it is not his, but it is enjoyable to hold it for a while.

Zhou Du heard the meaning of his words, and Gu Jing Wubo's eyes showed a little smile, and asked him: "Like silver?"

"Of course," Shen Xi said, with a confident look, "Go to the street and ask, is there anyone who doesn't like money."

Zhou Du stopped and glanced at him, and blurted out the words in his heart without thinking: "If you like it, I will give it to you."

Shen Xi's hand holding the silver trembled, almost shaking the silver in his arms to the ground, and he stammered: "Just... just kidding."

Zhou Du stopped in his tracks, and looked at him seriously with a stern face: "Do I seem to be joking?"

Shen Xi swallowed secretly, her heart beating non-stop, trembling slightly: "It's not like."

Zhou Du looked back in satisfaction.

Shen Xi felt that his hand holding the silver was weak, and after exhaling, he refused: "I can't accept it, you don't even have a place to settle down in Taoyuan Village, the money you earned so hard will be used for a sum of money. When repairing the house, one sum will be used to buy the land, and another sum will be saved to buy furniture after the house is built..."

What's more, he hasn't spent the money he earned from holding wedding banquets in the Meng Mansion a few days ago, so what will he do with Zhoudu's money.

Zhou Du saw that Shen Xi had arranged every expense of the money for him in an orderly manner, so he couldn't help but stop, and asked, "What about you?"

Shen Xi didn't react for a while: "What?"

Zhou Du looked at him with sincere and serious eyes, and asked word for word again: "How much does it cost to marry you."
