C30 (1/2)

Seeing Dong Shu's expression, Xu Shiqiu could guess what she was thinking, but he thought the same way, so he did not speak up to interrupt her train of thoughts.

It was already late in the night, so only after Xu Shiqiu called over some hot water, did he whisper into Dong Shu's ear. ”My wife, it's already getting late, do you want to wash up and rest? Didn't you and Yanzhu set an appointment to meet tomorrow? ”

Upon hearing Xu Shiqiu's words, Dong Shu instantly regained her senses, looked up at him, and immediately became bashful: ”I do, hubby wait a moment, I'll go wash myself now.” With that said, Dong Shu got up quickly and headed to her ear room.

Looking at Young Girl's retreating back, who seemed to be fleeing for his life, Xu Shiqiu endured his laughter, shook his head, and walked to the study room to start writing a letter.

Father's uncles had not read many books, and they only knew how to read. Thus, this letter had to be written in a more straightforward manner.

Thinking about it this way, the ink in Xu Shiqiu's hands was already finished.

Paving the paper, drawing the brush, all the movements were smooth and natural. When the two pieces of paper were finished, the ink in the inkstone had just been used up.

From the corner of her eyes, she saw Dong Shu walking over, so Xu Shiqiu quickly put down the letter in her hand and raised her head to smile at her: ”My wife's actions are so quick, I just finished writing this letter.”

Hearing Xu Shiqiu's voice, Dong Shu stopped in her tracks. Just as she was wondering if she should continue walking, she heard Xu Shiqiu say: ”But I'm just finished here, do you want my wife to come and learn a few more words?”

When Xu Shiqiu finished speaking, he immediately walked towards him. Dong Shu waited until he was beside him, then looked up and said: ”Then I'll learn a few more words from Master.”

Dong Shu had always loved to learn, no matter whether it was when she was at the Dong Clan previously or after she married into the Xu Family.

She would always imitate the people around her. Previously, she wanted to learn from her aunt, Madame Dai, to protect herself. This time, she would also learn etiquette from Xu Yanzhu and learn to read from him.

Every time she learnt to read from Xu Shiqiu, she would be extremely serious, and did not know that Xu Shiqiu enjoyed this time very much. She only felt that if there was a little while every day, he would be happy.

However, time would eventually slip away.

It had been four days since Dong Shu's arrival. Today, Dong Shu felt that her body had become lighter since morning, and without waiting for her to be happy, she hurriedly walked over to her and Xu Shiqiu: ”Third Master, Madam. The gatekeeper has informed us that Master and Second Master will be at the door in half an hour. ”

Since the Shihuan Courtyard had Cui Hua, the servants of the Xu Family bravely approached the Shihuan Courtyard as well.

After all, Cui Hua stayed in the front courtyard all day, so as long as she called out from the door, she could hear him.

Hearing Cui Hua's words, Dong Shu subconsciously looked towards Xu Shiqiu, a nervous emotion passing through her eyes. Just as she was about to speak up, she saw Xu Shiqiu frown and say unhappily: ”We'll be back soon, don't tell me you expect me to go to the door to fetch them?”

Although his big brother and second brother were his big brothers, they were, after all, not elders.

On the other hand, Yanzhu would probably need to go to the door and wait for her uncle and father.

Of course, the main reason why Xu Shiqiu was so unhappy was because Dong Shu's eyes had instantly tensed up.

In Xu Shiqiu's heart, his own Young Girl was the most important person. Since his brother and second brother were going home, there was naturally no need for him to welcome them.

Dong Shu did not know whether it was because of her that Xu Shiqiu was unhappy, but she looked at her husband, and when she saw that he was looking at her, she immediately smiled at him with her crescent eyes: ”Master, what clothes do you think I should wear today? After all, this is my first time seeing my eldest brother, eldest sister-in-law, second brother, Second Sister-in-law and those juniors. After saying this, Dong Shu thought for a moment before continuing: ”I still need to choose some gifts for the juniors. I'm an elder after all.”

Just as Dong Shu finished speaking, it immediately attracted his attention.

Xu Shiqiu stood up, walked to the side of the wardrobe, and opened it to take a careful look. Only then did he choose the long blue muslin dress and the silver red ponyface dress.

”Didn't mother give you a set of jewellery two days ago? The colors are just nice and bright, just right for your dress. As for the gifts for the juniors, I've already chosen them a few days ago.

Xu Shiqiu looked at Dong Shu who had just finished speaking, and nodded to him: ”En, I will listen to Hubby.” After he finished speaking, Dong Shu immediately stood up, prepared to change into her clothes and comb her makeup.

The color of the dress was extremely delicate and fair to begin with, and after being raised at home for a few days, she looked even more white and round.

After changing into the dress, Dong Shu started to comb her hair with Cui Hua's help.

Before, when Dong Shu didn't like to wear so many hair accessories, she always felt that it was too burdensome, but today, she had actually put on a whole set.

Heart, hairpin, hair covering, pearl hairpin, earring, one does not fall.

If it was said that Dong Shu who normally only combed her makeup simply still looked a little like a peasant girl, then after changing into her clothes and dressing up, she looked like an extremely noble and noble girl.

In addition to the etiquette she had learned from Xu Yanzhu during these few days, his actions had instead caused Xu Shiqiu to become absent-minded for an instant.

When Dong Shu, who was originally carrying it, saw his husband staring at him while lost in thought, he immediately covered his mouth and laughed: ”My husband, could it be that you do not recognize me?”

Hearing Dong Shu's naughty words, Xu Shiqiu regained his senses, and looked at her while laughing and shaking his head: ”Normally I would only look at my wife's simple attire, but today, seeing my wife's luxurious clothing, my husband is truly stunned.”

Xu Shiqiu didn't feel that it was embarrassing at all for his to say these words. Instead, when he heard his words, Dong Shu's face flushed red from shyness.
