Chapter 60 Aside from the initial period after their marriage, he really never...

As the saying goes, food and sex are human nature.

Tang Mingli fully respects her own nature, to the extreme.

And isn't resignation the same?

At first, he didn't understand what his wife meant, and even misheard it as vegetarianism.

But it turns out it was fast food.

Thinking of his wife's constant urging earlier, Fu Ci gritted his teeth, but couldn't help laughing.

To be fair, aside from the time right after he got married, he has never had such a record.

Thinking of this, Fu Ci couldn't help but gently bite her exposed shoulder.

Tang Mingli, who had been looking satiated, suddenly changed his expression and exclaimed in alarm, "What are you trying to do? Put away your evil thoughts!"

She's someone who always comes downstairs for dinner on time.

"Whose thoughts are truly evil?" Fu Ci countered.

Who was pulling him to order fast food?

fast food!

That's such a fitting word.

Just how many unimaginable things are hidden in her little head?

Fu Ci couldn't help but grit his teeth again.

Unable to refute, Tang Mingli could only chuckle and say with a hint of coquettishness, "I just guessed what you were thinking and chose to take the initiative."

Perhaps as she gradually calmed down from the afterglow of passion, Tang Mingli's mind started working again. She thought of something and became quite assertive: "Who suddenly took a shower and came out of the bathroom naked?"

Fu Ci corrected, "I was just shirtless."

But Tang Mingli didn't care. Although she was wrapped in a bath towel, she was naked.

"If you hadn't had evil intentions, would you have come out naked? It's obvious you were trying to tempt me."

But she was easily tempted.

Fu Ci experienced firsthand what it means to be speechless and unable to defend oneself.

But honestly, he didn't think about any of that when he was taking a shower.

But he couldn't deny that when his wife was staring directly at him, he did have wicked thoughts...

Forget it, why bother arguing with her about this?

So what if he's a little wicked? He's the one who always benefits.

Having won the argument, Tang Mingli also knew when to stop.

She knew perfectly well that she had only managed to win by sophistry.

So she didn't hold back her praise: "Even though it's fast food, you're still great."

As she spoke, she snuggled against him.

But he immediately sensed something was wrong and quickly retreated to keep his distance.

It's enough to have tried it; we can't keep playing with fire.

Fu Ci was pleased that he could satisfy his wife, but indeed, fast food left him wanting more.

So, when Tang Mingli urged him to get dressed and come downstairs for dinner, Fu Ci turned her around and whispered in her ear.

"Let's continue tonight."

Hot breath sprayed on her ear, and Tang Mingli, who had just experienced the ultimate pleasure between a man and a woman, quickly blushed.

Let's continue then.

Although she was a little tired, well... sigh, what can she do when she's so greedy?

She truly admired Nuwa's ingenuity in creating humans, wondering how she came up with such a method of harmonizing yin and yang.

but……

Looking at her husband's muscular chest, Tang Mingli thought that it varied from person to person; not everyone could be as desirable as Fu Ci.

I'm not going to think about it anymore. I'll get dressed and go downstairs to eat.

-

After dinner, the aftereffects of the trip began to show.

Apart from the nanny Zhang Guihua, no one was in the mood to watch TV anymore; they all just wanted to go back to their rooms to rest as soon as possible.

Even Tang Mingli, who loves watching TV the most, is no exception.

The TV station is currently airing a new drama series, but she hasn't watched more than a few episodes. Plus, she's been away for a few days and can't keep up with the plot anymore, so the drama series no longer holds her attention.

Hearing her mother-in-law and grandmother say they wanted to rest early, she was the first to agree.

"I definitely need to rest properly first, and I need to rest for a couple more days. Putting aside whether I'm going to do anything or not, just taking a long bus ride is quite tiring."

"That's true." Old Madam Fu belatedly realized this and felt deeply moved, rubbing her lower back as she spoke.

During her two days in Goose City, she was so confident that she felt strong enough to travel to even farther places. But today, after returning home, taking a shower, and sitting on the sofa, she was surprised to find that her lower back was sore.

If it wasn't from being in a car, what else could it be?

Fu's mother said thankfully, "Luckily, Mingli let me take two more days off so I can rest at home for a few more days before going back to work."

At the time, she thought that taking four days off would be enough.

Having worked for so many years, she rarely took leave and felt really embarrassed to ask for too long. It was only after Mingli insisted that she finally gritted her teeth and asked for two more days.

Now it seems my daughter-in-law was the most thoughtful. So I couldn't help but praise her again.

Tang Mingli smiled, pursing her lips.

Actually, this was just experience gained from limited travel in her previous life, which made her feel guilty for praising him.

However, when her mother-in-law also mentioned the compliments the other grandmothers in the tour group had given her, she felt genuinely embarrassed and quickly interrupted.

"It's just someone being polite. It makes me feel bad. Let's not say it."

Mother Fu replied, "What are you being so polite about? This is the truth."

Madam Fu joined in, saying, "It's no politeness. If you weren't already married to Fu Ci, they probably wouldn't be able to resist arranging a marriage for their grandson."

Upon hearing this, Fu Ci, who had remained silent, raised an eyebrow, realizing that there were such risks involved in traveling with senior citizen groups, and decided it was best to avoid it in the future.

However, they were indeed tired. The three women, who usually chatted endlessly, said they were done talking and wanted to go back to their rooms to lie down after a few words.

Grandpa Fu's sense of superiority was brought into play by the comparison. He, who had been mostly silent, was so smug that he couldn't help but smugly say, "Look at you guys, you just don't exercise enough."

At that moment, he had no idea that the slap in the face would come so quickly.

the next day.

Although I said last night that I should rest well for the next two days, the three elders of the Fu family still woke me up at their usual wake-up time.

After a good night's sleep, Madam Fu and her mother were no longer as tired as they had been the night before.

After breakfast, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law enjoyed tea and a rare moment of leisure on a summer morning.

Madam Fu smiled and said, "Mingli is right, tea should be savored slowly."

When talking about Tang Mingli, Fu's mother couldn't help but wonder what time Tang Mingli would come downstairs today.

Regarding her granddaughter-in-law, the elderly Mrs. Fu, who has been retired for many years, felt she had the right to speak: "It's good enough that she can come down for lunch."

Fu's mother laughed heartily, suddenly looking forward to seeing her daughter-in-law.

As the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law chatted and laughed, they saw Old Master Fu come out of the room.

His walking posture was a bit strange, and he even supported his waist with one hand.

Fu's mother immediately sensed something was wrong, got up and walked towards him, asking with concern, "Dad, are you feeling unwell?"

Grandpa Fu quickly stood up straight and waved his hand, saying, "No, no, I just slept for too long and my back is stiff."

"Is that so?" Mrs. Fu was not very convinced.

To prove that he was indeed alright, Grandpa Fu braced himself and took a few steps with his body straight.

However, he was exposed after only two steps, baring his teeth and letting out a cry of pain.

The sound of "ouch" made Old Madam Fu unable to sit still, and she quickly came over to check.

"Old man, did you hurt your back?"

When he was told the truth, Old Master Fu blushed.

Last night I was teasing them about their lack of exercise, saying they complained of backaches after just two days of playing outside. Then this morning, he accidentally strained his back when he woke up.

When she realized she had guessed correctly, Madam Fu was both amused and annoyed.

"If you hurt your back, you hurt your back, but you still insist on enduring it without saying anything. You're already so old, why are you still so stubborn?"

"I..." Old Master Fu was speechless.

"Alright, alright, I won't say anymore." Madam Fu was genuinely concerned for her husband, helping him to sit down on the sofa, and then asked, "Does it hurt?"

Grandpa Fu stubbornly said, "It doesn't hurt much, you don't need to worry about me, I'll be fine after sitting for a while."

Anyway, back strain is nothing new for him; he had it once when he was still in the army.

Thinking back carefully, it was more than 20 years ago.

Madam Fu glared at him, and although she was unhappy with his stubbornness, she couldn't bear to say anything more to him.

Meanwhile, Fu's mother had already brought over breakfast.

Today's breakfast was lean meat congee, which Grandpa Fu loves.

But today, perhaps a back injury made him realize that he is really getting old. Seeing this lean meat porridge, he couldn't help but think that this kind of liquid food is indeed very suitable for the elderly. However, he didn't quite enjoy eating it.

Madam Fu thought it was just a backache and loss of appetite, and worriedly suggested, "Why don't I go with you to the hospital to get it checked out?"

"No need, no need, it's just a sprained back, why go to the hospital?" Old Master Fu's attitude was very firm, and his tone unconsciously became fierce.

It's just a sprained back, going to the hospital is making a mountain out of a molehill.

Madam Fu was furious and said to him, "Why are you so stubborn?"

Grandpa Fu didn't care; he was stubborn as he was, and he just didn't want to go to the hospital.

The two elderly people disagreed over this matter and no longer wanted to talk to each other.

Mrs. Fu watched anxiously, but there was nothing she could do.

Just as I was wondering how to ease the tension, Tang Mingli came downstairs yawning.

Both Madam Fu and her mother were very surprised and asked her almost in unison why she was there so early.

Tang Mingli touched her nose, feeling embarrassed by the question.

Look at her, she's used to sleeping in late, and it's rare for her to get up at a normal time, which has shocked her family.

She was embarrassed to explain, "My whole body ached from sleeping, so I just got up."

That's the truth, otherwise why would she come downstairs at this time?

My body was probably really tired; lying down for too long made my muscles ache.

"Now that you're awake, eat your breakfast before the porridge gets cold," said Mrs. Fu, reaching for a bowl of porridge.

Tang Mingli quickly stepped forward, saying, "I'll do it."

Although the family members occasionally serve each other rice, it is when the whole family sits at the table and eats together.

It's really unreasonable that she's eating alone now and her mother-in-law has to serve her food.

Tang Mingli ate a bowl of porridge and two steamed buns, then patted her belly contentedly.

In her past life, she disliked steamed buns; the smell made her nauseous, so she always thought she simply didn't like them. It wasn't until she came to this era and tasted freshly steamed, handmade buns that she realized she just didn't like pre-made ones.

Moving to the living room, Tang Mingli finally noticed that her grandfather seemed a little off today.

Well, the way I'm sitting is a little strange.

"uncomfortable?"

Tang Mingli's question was naturally directed at Old Master Fu, but Old Master Fu just smiled, so she looked at Old Madam Fu and Fu's mother.

Fu's mother couldn't talk about her father-in-law, so she could only smile.

Madam Fu, on the other hand, had no reservations whatsoever. She not only mentioned that he had strained his back, but also offered her opinion.

He's so stubborn and won't listen to advice; people care about him, and he gets rude.

However, Tang Mingli noticed something.

I strained my back.

She suddenly had two ideas and said to the three elders, "I have a suggestion, but I don't know if I should say it."
