As the day began, Su Shen prepared to head out. He had already driven his sons to school before dawn, all so that he could return and prepare a hearty breakfast for Gu Zi. Now that he had satisfied the womans appetite, it was time for him to go to work.
As he stepped out of the house, Su Shen noticed Gu Zi by the pigeon cage, observing the pigeons. He approached her from behind and said, Tomorrow, when we return to your family, we should capture two more pigeons and bring this sheep back with us. What do you think?
Gu Zi was slightly surprised. She hadnt expected that on the day of their return to her family, Su Shen would still be planning to bring pigeons and a sheep to the Lin family. This was really going to make others die of envy.
She knew that no matter how angry she got with this man, it wouldnt last long because he always cared so much about her and her maternal family. He was more than willing to spend money on them.
He was so considerate in everything he did. How could she stay angry for long? It would make her appear petty.
Turning around, she embraced the mans waist and leaned into his arms. I think others might envy us. Su Shen, youre too good to me and my family. I forgive your behavior from last night. But remember, it shouldnt happen again!
Listening to the gentle tone of the woman, Su Shen felt content with a wife like her and desired nothing more.
He replied, Because you are the most important person to me, and your family is my family. I wont be stingy with anything I should do. Giving gifts when we return to your family is a tradition that has been followed from ancient times to the present day. You shouldnt worry about others being envious.
One persons thoughts couldnt influence others. Su Shen only wanted to live a good life with Gu Zi and didnt care about what others thought.
Gu Zi nodded and asked, What about the remaining pigeons? Should we keep them here?
Su Shen said, The remaining pigeons are for your nourishment. If you want to raise them yourself, I can get more for you.
Gu Zi liked the idea and, standing on her tiptoes, gave Su Shen a kis. His seemingly cold lips were actually warm and affectionate.
A smile played at the corner of Su Shens mouth, and he held her by the waist, pressing her against the pigeon cage. He leaned down and kised her, using his fingers to part her lips, gently urging her to open her mouth. He deeply and passionately tasted her sweetness.
Gu Zi was aroused by the kis and gasped for breath, breathing heavily. Even after he had left for quite some time, her lips were still crimson, exuding an ambiguous allure.
Fortunately, she didnt plan to go out today. They were returning to her family tomorrow, so she intended to tidy up the gifts and perhaps decorate the sheep and pigeons with some big red flowers to make them look presentable when they brought them back.
The day they returned to her family was a Saturday. Su Bing and Su Li didnt have to go to school, so the three siblings would also accompany them to the Lin family.
Although Su Shens car was quite large, there werent too much space to store things in the cars in this era. Therefore, Su Shen called two men from the Dig farm to help transport the two sheep and two pigeons to the Lin family.
Gu Zi just found out that Su Shen had purchased two sheep, one of which was bought from a villager, so they only needed to bring it back on the same day.
After placing the supplements, pork, fruits, and other items in the car, the remaining space in the back was just enough for Su Bing and Su Li to sit.
Su Shen drove, and Gu Zi sat in the front passenger seat, holding Lele in her arms. The family set off in a tight formation.
The Lin family was also quite busy that day. After all, it was a custom that when a daughter married, she would return to her parents home three or six days after the wedding. On that day, the maternal family would host a return feast to entertain the grooms family and close friends.
The Lin family, having formed a connection with the Su family, had become well-known in Little Lin Village. Many people came to help with the preparations, and the atmosphere was lively.
Other guests who had arrived early were seated and chatting, looking forward to the gifts that Su Shen would bring this time. After all, they couldnt help but anticipate Su Shens generosity, given his history of extravagant gifts.
Someone remarked, We cant always rely on Su Shens gifts. It makes us seem too materialistic. As long as the couple is happy, thats the most important thing.
But others had a different perspective, saying, In our villages, the Lin familys daughters have had such splendid marriages all these years thanks to Su Shens abilities. Its natural for people to look forward to his gifts. Theres nothing wrong with that.
Just as everyone was discussing, two tall men holding two sheep and two pigeons appeared in everyones sight.
As the discussions continued, two tall men appeared, each leading a sheep with two pigeons tied to their backs. Some people marveled at Su Shens generosity, while others thought that it wasnt as extravagant as previous gifts.
Indeed, it seemed that once a woman was married, she was no longer valuable..
