[Seven-five] Sunflowers are warm

Chapter 2 Self-reliance

Five days passed in the blink of an eye, and Xu Xiangyang managed to figure out his situation.She traveled to the Northern Song Dynasty, married Zhan Zhao, and now lives in Kaifeng Mansion.All these things are familiar and strange, Master Bao, Mr. Gongsun, Zhan Zhao...she has become Zhan Zhao's wife!Hehe, she is said to be his wife, but no one treats her as Mrs. Zhan, not even herself.

Zhan Zhao hated her to the extreme but was also extremely conflicted. She asked him for a divorce letter that day, but he said that since he married her, he would not abandon her, and she never saw him again.Thinking of this, Xu Xiangyang smiled wryly. Isn't this the deepest and heaviest punishment for her?Although she was not that Xu Xiangyang, she had to bear the consequences for her.

She is already in good health, so it's not good for Mrs. Wang to keep giving her medicine and meals.Seeing that there was a small kitchen in the courtyard where Zhan Zhao lived, he packed up and wanted to start the fire himself.However, when she finished cleaning, she found that there was no firewood or rice for the pot, which stumped her.Zhan Zhao hasn't come back for several days, and the people in Kaifeng Mansion don't want to see her, so it's not easy for her to ask them for things or borrow money.Helpless, I can only go back to the house and rummage through the boxes to see if the original owner has money.

Finally, a locked wooden box was found under the box.Xu Xiangyang thought, if it is so tightly hidden, there must be something valuable inside.She was impatient to find the key, so she hurried to find a stone outside the house and smashed the lock.There were only two broken pieces of silver and a dozen or so copper coins in it. She was a little dumbfounded, even if she didn't understand prices, she knew that this amount of money was too little.I have to buy everything from daily necessities, rice, oil and salt, how can this be enough for a few days?Zhan Zhao wasn't here, even if she was, she wouldn't be able to ask him for money.

well!Although it is said that life will always pass, it is a good day, and a bad day is also a day, but this is too sad.Sighing, he took out the silver in the box, and could only take one step at a time, so he wouldn't starve to death, right?

Probably due to the memory of the original owner, Xu Xiangyang felt that he seemed to be familiar with Kaifeng Mansion, so he left Kaifeng Mansion through the side door based on his feeling.When I went to the market, she was a little dumbfounded, it was very lively, and she was not inferior to the later generations.Walking through it felt like visiting a folk street, but she didn't forget the business.After buying some necessities, I bought another load of firewood and asked someone to send it back. I was relieved, at least I had something to eat.

However, when she was about to cook, she realized that she had nothing to start a fire, and there was no water in the kitchen, and she immediately had a big head.As a last resort, I had to bite the bullet and go to the kitchen.She vaguely knew that people at this time were making fire with torches, and she knew the way to the kitchen, but she didn't know anyone in the kitchen.Another sigh, another scolding.Fortunately, Sister-in-law Wang was also there, so she felt more at ease. Although Sister-in-law Wang didn't want to see her, she was an acquaintance and had spoken a few words to her.

"Sister-in-law Wang."

Sister-in-law Wang frowned when she saw Xu Xiangyang coming, and said viciously, "What are you doing here?" She still has the face to come out?If it were her, she would have been in hiding long ago and would have no face in front of others!

Xu Xiangyang was a little embarrassed, and said in a low voice: "I, I cleaned up the kitchen in the yard, but I don't know how to make a fire, you, can you teach me?" She originally wanted to borrow a fire bag and a bucket, but now she doesn't Dare to borrow it, anyway, there is still some money, these are necessities, just buy them.

Sister-in-law Wang glared at her angrily, she didn't tell her anything, she just told her to come with her.Xu Xiangyang obediently followed into the kitchen, and Mrs. Wang sat in front of the stove, grabbed a handful of dead leaves, and lit them with a torch.Xu Xiangyang nodded, gratefully said: "I understand, thank you, Mrs. Wang."

"Your kitchen hasn't been used for a long time, and it's hard to burn it with only firewood. Bring some leaves back. Take this too." Sister-in-law Wang said, stuffing the fire pocket into her hand, and put a basket outside to make life easier. Let her take back the thin dead branches and leaves.Xu Xiangyang thanked her again and again, and Mrs. Wang extended a helping hand to her, which gave her a glimmer of hope. Maybe she might change everyone's perception of her.It takes a long time to see people's hearts, no matter what happened before, everyone can always see that she is different from the original Xu Xiangyang.

With Huozhezi, there must be water, so Xu Xiangyang hurried out to buy buckets and washbasins.It was almost noon after tossing back and forth, so I first brought a bucket of water back to wash rice and cook.In her previous life, she was a little assistant who had no sense of existence. The ordinary could not be more ordinary, and her daily life remained the same.The pastime in my spare time is to do some fabric handicrafts and cook some delicious food, so my cooking skills are pretty good.But there was nothing here, and her money was tight, so she didn't dare to be extravagant, so she only cooked a pot of multigrain porridge to fill her stomach, without even any side dishes.

After eating, clean up the large water tank in the corner, and then carry water.The well was outside the kitchen, and it was not too far from here to the kitchen, but she had never done heavy work, and her body was also fragile, and her arms began to ache and swell after a few runs.Looking at the huge water tank, she couldn't help but sigh, when will it be full?But no matter how tired she was, she still had to grit her teeth to support her. Besides relying on herself, who else would help her?Naihe scuffed her hands after carrying half a tank of water, so she had to give up for now.

The damaged part of her hand was burning, so she took out a piece of muslin cloth, cut two straps and bandaged it briefly.When looking for cloth, she accidentally found the half-embroidered pattern left by the original owner. She picked it up curiously and looked at it. In her previous life, she also liked handwork, so she tried to embroider two stitches.Probably because the body still has the habit of the original owner, she was surprised at first, and then overjoyed that the embroidery went smoothly.If you can embroider, you can get a show job, and you can make money, and if you can make money, you can live without relying on Zhan Zhao!Even if you are suspended, you are not afraid of losing your way out.When Zhan Zhao comes back, we still have to talk to him.She doesn't care about him, and he hates her, why not make up?She lives her little life, and he and Miss Ding reconnect with each other, and everyone is happy.

Zhan Zhao went out for a few days and returned to Kaifeng Mansion, the more he went to the small courtyard, the more his heart sank.A few days ago, Xu Xiangyang said that she didn't remember the past, and he didn't believe her words from the bottom of his heart, but she asked him for a divorce letter, which made him confused.If it is said that she is playing tricks, isn't he afraid that he will really divorce her?Or is she taking a step back, expecting that he won't divorce his wife, and deliberately playing tricks?No matter whether she has real amnesia or fake amnesia, he will not change his opinion of her. She can do whatever she wants with her, as long as she keeps her own place and doesn't cause trouble.

As soon as he stepped into the small courtyard, he saw the water stains on the ground extending all the way to the kitchen. He remembered that the kitchen had been left unused for a long time, did anyone go in?There was some firewood piled up outside the kitchen, Zhan Zhao was even more puzzled, he opened the door and walked in, the inside had been cleaned and organized, and it was in good order.He lifted the lid of the pot, and the porridge was still warm inside. What's going on?

Suddenly footsteps came from behind, Zhan Zhao turned his head and met Xu Xiangyang's astonished gaze.She stood at the door, looking a little at a loss, and said nervously: "Zhan, Mr. Zhan, you are back... I can't keep bothering Mrs. Wang, so I cleaned up the kitchen and started cooking by myself. You, have you eaten? There is still food in the pot." Some porridge..."

Zhan Zhao remained expressionless, and said flatly, "I've eaten."

Xu Xiangyang pursed his lips, not knowing what else to say.She was afraid of Zhan Zhao from the bottom of her heart, even though she was not the one who climbed the bed, she still had no face to face it, wishing she could find a crack to hide.Even if she didn't wear it on the bed-crawler, she wouldn't dare to have the slightest thought of a man like Zhan Zhao.She knew that she was mediocre and didn't deserve to stand shoulder to shoulder with such a man, so she didn't even dare to think about it.

Just like her former boss, talented, handsome, and the dream lover of many unmarried female employees in the company.But he chose mediocre her as his assistant. She once asked the reason, and he said that she was ordinary in appearance, average in work ability but serious in attitude, and would not want to turn a sparrow into a phoenix all day long, so he chose her.At that time, she felt so sad. Is she so mediocre that she doesn't even have the qualifications to have a secret love?She can only hide her thoughts deeper, only in this way can she get closer to him.But later he saw the clues, and then she was transferred to the department.

Such an excellent man is not something she can think of, she has a deep understanding.Therefore, she dare not get too close to Zhan Zhao, she has self-knowledge.

Zhan Zhao said no more, passed her and left the kitchen.She breathed a sigh of relief, and her heart returned to its original place.If possible, she hoped not to have any contact with him, but to get the divorce letter as soon as possible.Zhan Zhao went back to the house thoughtfully, her hands were wrapped with bandages, presumably the skin was worn out by carrying water.Her father is a scholar, and the few acres of land in the family are rented out to farmers. She is considered pampered and has never done any rough work.Her father's death dragged down the family, and her mother soon followed. She was desperate and sold herself to bury her mother.Seeing how pitiful she was, he took her to Kaifeng Mansion to find a job to make a living. Who would have thought...

It's too late to say anything now, even though she has resorted to low means, it is a fact that he has taken away her innocence, that's the only way to go.It's just Yuehua... this matter hurt her deeply, and he was sorry for her.It took less than a month for the matter to happen, and the marriage was hasty, and my heart has been depressed.This time, the Ding family pleaded guilty, and the Ding family's anger was expected. Why should only Xu Xiangyang be blamed for such a thing?He also made mistakes, if he didn't know people clearly, how could he be like this?

The knuckles of the clenched fist turned white, damn it!He slammed his fist on the window sill, the muffled sound was like the bitterness in his heart, it was unbearable to suppress.Sighing deeply, he turned around and went out of the room, and then went into the kitchen. Under Xu Xiangyang's astonished gaze, he took the bucket out.Xu Xiangyang called him timidly, "Master Zhan, this is..."

"Carry water." She is his wife now, and he can't really ignore her.

Xu Xiangyang was startled, and hurriedly stopped him, "I've already carried half a tank, it's enough." How can I let him carry water?She can do these things by herself, slow and slow, and it is always within her ability.Don't dare to bother him.

Zhan Zhao went straight out with the bucket, leaving Xu Xiangyang stunned.It took her almost an entire afternoon to pick out half a tank of water, while Zhan Zhao filled the tank in just a quarter of an hour.Although he helped carry water, his body was still full of dislike for her, so she dared not speak to him.Then he filled the water and walked away without a word.
