Chapter 6

A drop of water should be repaid with a spring.

Furthermore, it was a life-saving favor. It was only right for her to devote her life to him.

However, what she pursued was a relationship with feelings between husband and wife.

And not living together without feelings and making do.

“That’s amazing. Don’t think too much. Hurry up and sleep. Resting well is the best thank you to me.”

Zhou Yi lowered his head and kissed Song Xi lightly on the forehead.

Actually, when he helped her take a shower previously, he used boiling well water. There was no soap, let alone scented soap.

Therefore, the faint fragrance on Song Xi’s body was completely the fragrance that came with her body.

This faint fragrance fascinated Zhou Yi.

He was very grateful that he had married such a good wife without even meeting her previously.

Not only was she good-looking, but she was also cultured. She was the most cultured foreign wife in their village.

When Zhou Yi kissed Song Xi’s forehead, Song Xi roared in her heart.

Fortunately, there was no unpleasant smell on him. He was refreshing. Otherwise, she might have punched him.

Of course, she could only think that way.

It was extremely difficult for her to move now. She had just taken a few steps in the supermarket and was so tired that she was about to collapse.

The next morning, Song Xi slowly opened her eyes under the temptation of a fragrance.

Zhou Yi, who was sitting beside her, heaved a sigh of relief when he saw her wake up. He was afraid that his wife would fall asleep.

Previously, it was his responsibility to take care of his little wife. It was what a husband should do.

However, after a day of contact yesterday, he was already pleased with her. It had gone from responsibility to love.

“Wife, you’re awake? Do you want to go out and wash up, or should I bring water in?” Zhou Yi leaned over and asked.

“Brother Yi, please help me go out and wash up!”

If she didn’t move around and her leg muscles shrunk, she would be finished if she couldn’t walk in the future.

Song Xi felt that her physical condition was better than yesterday. She could probably walk a few steps.

Besides, didn’t she take a few steps in the Space Supermarket last night?

Zhou Yi quickly stood up and helped Song Xi up. He helped her out of the house.

On a summer morning, a cool breeze blew as she walked out of the door.

Song Xi woke up the moment the morning breeze blew.

In the distance, the mountains overlapped and the morning fog lingered. It was as beautiful as a paradise on earth.

There was a faint fragrance of plants in the air. It was very pleasant.

Song Xi raised her head and closed her eyes, greedily enjoying the fresh air.

It had been a long time since she had breathed such fresh and sweet air.

After a while, Song Xi, who was feeling comfortable, slowly opened her eyes.

Seeing that Zhou Yi was staring at her intently, Song Xi could not help but blush.

She subconsciously looked away and only then did she notice Zhou Yi’s courtyard.

It was a very ordinary farmhouse courtyard circled with wooden stakes.

That wooden stake was not even as tall as Song Xi. It was not safe at all.

A thief could jump in with a flip. It only guarded against gentlemen and not villains.

The courtyard looked quite big, and many places were not used rationally.

Especially the vegetable fields in the courtyard. There were some sparse green plants that looked like grass.

Song Xi glanced at Zhou Yi helplessly.

If she had such a small farmhouse, she would definitely raise two dogs and plant some flowers.

Then, she would plant her favorite fruits and vegetables.

She would definitely not waste such good land resources.

Looking at Song Xi’s helpless expression, Zhou Yi touched his nose awkwardly.

Then, he helped Song Xi to the well and let her sit on the bamboo chair.

She handed the tea mug and toothbrush to Song Xi. “Wife, can you brush yourself? If not, I’ll help you brush.”

“Let me try first!” Song Xi smiled awkwardly and hurriedly reached out to take the tea mug and toothbrush.

In this era, toothbrushes and toothpaste were not as good as modern ones.

There was a strange smell when the toothpaste was used.

The toothbrush was also frivolous and uncomfortable in her mouth.

However, the conditions in this era were like this. There was no way to be picky.

Song Xi slowly brushed her teeth. Her forehead was already covered in sweat.

It was obvious how difficult such a small matter was for her now.

When she noticed the branch in Zhou Yi’s hand, she was a little surprised. “Brother Yi, why are you brushing your teeth with the branch? You can brush your teeth with a branch?”

After asking this, Song Xi was stunned.

Because she knew from Little ‘Song Xi’s’ memories.

In this era, most villagers brushed their teeth with willow branches.

Few people were willing to spend 50 cents on toothpaste and toothbrushes.

Looking at the brand-new toothbrush and toothpaste in her hand, Song Xi could no longer be picky.

It was something she despised and most people could not afford to use!

“Brother Yi…” Song Xi felt a little uncomfortable.

Zhou Yi clearly had more than 200 yuan in savings.

However, he could not even bear to buy an extra set of toiletries for a few cents.

Zhou Yi reached out and took the toiletries from Song Xi’s hand, placing them on the flat rock beside him.

After that, he brought over half a basin of hot water and mixed it until it was warm water. He wet the towel and handed it to Song Xi.

Song Xi wanted to thank him, but she was afraid that Zhou Yi would lecture her again because of this, so she didn’t say thank you.

However, she made a mental note of Zhou Yi’s care for her. She would think about the rest later.

Song Xi’s breakfast was chicken soup and noodles. There were not many noodles.

It was not that Zhou Yi could not bear to give it to her, but her body was slowly recovering. She had to eat less and eat frequently. She could not eat too much at once.

As for Zhou Yi’s, it was wild vegetable chicken soup, there were a few wild vegetables floating in the chicken soup.

No wonder he was so thin. He was so rich but he could not bear to eat.

Song Xi’s heart ached for him. She picked up some chicken from the bowl for him. “Brother Yi, your health is very important too. If you collapse from exhaustion, I might really die, so you have to recuperate too. The good days are still ahead!”

If it were anyone else, they would probably give up on her immediately and ask for the betrothal gifts and food back.

How could they treat her with all their might and take care of her in every detail like he did?

“Yes, the good days are still ahead. Thank you for your concern, wife. I’ll be fine. Wife, eat quickly.” Looking at the chicken in the bowl, Zhou Yi was extremely happy and satisfied.

He was someone who had a wife to care about.

“Zhou Yi, your wife can leave the house now?” As the two of them were eating breakfast, an unfamiliar voice suddenly sounded.

Song Xi turned her head and saw an unfamiliar auntie standing outside the wooden stake.

Zhou Yi stood up and smiled at the auntie outside the wooden stake. “Thank you for your concern, Aunt Li. She can’t go out for the time being. It should be soon.”

“Then I won’t disturb your breakfast. When your wife is fully recovered, I’ll come and get to know her.”

Aunt Li smiled and glanced at Song Xi before turning to leave.

She looked at Song Xi without sizing her up or harboring any malice.

It was the look of an elder wanting to get to know a junior.

Therefore, Song Xi did not dislike her.
