Chapter 24: The Three Obediences and Four Virtues of a Man

  He was taken aback at first, then gazed at his withered arm, and his eyes dimmed. I couldn't bear to see others like this, I couldn't discriminate against the disabled, I couldn't discriminate against the disabled, following the principle of doing one good deed a day, so I could only comfort him by saying: "Actually, being thin is in vogue now, in our village, plump girls are unwanted."

  He looked at me with a mixture of trust and doubt, I nodded firmly and added: "Men are the same."

  He snorted and said, "Even if you despise me, it's an unavoidable thing, just like the old lady said, you'd better resign yourself to your fate."

  I used to think his smile was very innocent and pure, barely counted as cute, but now this smile seems so annoying. I also withdrew the sympathy that had risen for him. I helped him up and said coldly: "You're not in good health, don't move around too much, otherwise you'll have problems later and blame me again."

  He looked at me, intending to get angry, but then said: "Today is our wedding day, and I couldn't go in person to pick you up. Bring the wine cup, let's drink a toast of union!"

  At such a young age, you know quite a lot.

  I reluctantly picked up the cup in the past, but now I'm just thinking about what I should do with my future life.

  Alas, Chihiro, Chihiro, when will you finally see me?

  The two of them casually clinked their cups together, Song Tang downed his drink in one gulp and handed the cup to me. Suddenly, he turned fierce: "Now that we've had a drink, we're officially husband and wife. From now on, remember your three obedience and four virtues, don't think you can slack off just because I'm not in good health."

  This kid... has a lot on his mind. One look and you can tell he's the kind of child who was never spoiled by his grandparents or loved by his uncles.

  I put down the cup, walked to Song Tang's side with a smile and sat down, took out a silk handkerchief to wipe away the ** at the corner of his mouth. I said softly: "You can rest assured, since I married you, it was my parents' order and the matchmaker's words, I naturally won't have a second heart. Moreover, your mother also said that even if it's just for the sake of Song family's face, even if you're not favored, the people in the Song family will absolutely not watch me neglect you."

  His smile froze as soon as he heard the three words "not favored", and he glared at me with a burst of anger.

  I kept a straight face and said: "By the way, I'll teach you something. In our village, there's this thing called 'three obedience and four virtues' for men. Do you want to hear about it?"
