"This isn't your fault!"

Wang Qian comforted him, "You didn't do it on purpose, you just accidentally fell. Just be more careful next time!"

Then, he glanced around and asked, "By the way, why did you take Niangui to the fields?"

"I...I'll water the vegetables."

Lin Xiaoyu said timidly, "My parents are busy with other things. I haven't been able to help with anything except taking care of the baby. Niangui is already more than three months pregnant. I was thinking of carrying her in a baby carrier so I could help in any way I can."

At this point, she became tearful again, saying, "Who knew that when I was carrying the bucket to water the plants, I slipped and fell, so..."

"Stop talking!"

Before she could finish speaking, Wang Qian interrupted her, saying, "From now on, you just need to take good care of the child."

"I see!"

Lin Xiaoyu nodded, a hint of sadness flashing in her eyes.

As expected, what Wang Qian truly cared about was the child.

Otherwise, if Wang Qian had been so disdainful of her before her son was born, but suddenly became so considerate, it must have been only because of the child.

Otherwise, given Wang Qian's personality, he probably would have divorced her long ago.

In addition, Wang Qian's ex-girlfriend Liu Yanran visited some time ago and told her some secrets about Wang Qian.

It is said that Wang Qian and his ex-girlfriend Wu Yanping went sightseeing in Linjiang City.

Wang Qian has not told her about this to this day.

This in itself speaks volumes.

"I can walk by myself!"

She suddenly pushed Wang Qian's hand away and said, "Just hold Niangui tight, you don't need to help me."

She had only taken one step forward when the pain in her foot made her unsteady and she fell forward.

Wang Qian reacted quickly and caught Lin Xiaoyu before she fell.

"It's so serious, and you still say he can walk?"

Wang Qian was a little angry, and his tone became somewhat harsh.

Lin Xiaoyu's breath hitched.

It seems her guess was right; Wang Qian's attitude towards her remained the same as before.

Without her child, she is nothing in this family.

However, she was stunned when she saw what Wang Qian did next.

After scolding her, Wang Qian did not let go. Instead, ignoring Huang Bo's astonished gaze, he hoisted her onto his back and strode forward.

"Wang Qian, what are you doing? Put me down right now!"

Lin Xiaoyu blushed with embarrassment, and while punching Wang Qian's shoulder, she said in a low voice, "Your classmate is still watching."

"So what if I look?"

Wang Qian didn't care at all. "He's my brother. He knows what he should and shouldn't look at. Besides, you sprained your ankle. I just carried you back. I didn't do anything shameful. What's there to be ashamed of?"

Behind him, Huang Bo couldn't help but burst out laughing, "Haha, I didn't realize you two were such a loving couple."

Rural areas in this era were indeed still relatively conservative.

However, those of them who had attended university were more progressive and open-minded.

In their eyes, it's perfectly normal for boys to carry girls on their backs.

Moreover, Wang Qian and Lin Xiaoyu are husband and wife, so there's even less reason for them to hide it.

"Put me down!"

Lin Xiaoyu's heart was pounding, but she still insisted, "There are so many people at the door helping us make roasted green pepper sauce, and my parents are here too. It would be so embarrassing if they saw us."

“You’re my wife, it’s perfectly normal for me to carry you home, what’s there to be embarrassed about?” Wang Qian said shamelessly.

Lin Xiaoyu was speechless.

She originally wanted to forcefully break free from Wang Qian's back, but she was afraid that she would cause Wang Qian to fall as well.

Most importantly, she was a little reluctant to part with it.

It felt really good to be carried on Wang Qian's back like this.

For a moment, she was in a daze again.

Could it be that Wang Qian cares about more than just the child, and genuinely wants to be good to her?

But what about the trip to Linjiang City with Wu Yanping?

While she was lost in thought, Wang Qian had already carried her to the front door of her house.

"Xiao Qian, you're back?"

"Oh, so you even carried your wife back with you."

"They're so loving."

The women working at Wang Qian's house all cast ambiguous, half-smiling glances at him.

Lin Xiaoyu's pretty face turned even redder, but since Wang Qian had already carried her this far, she had no choice but to bury her head in Wang Qian's broad back to avoid being seen by others.

"Xiaoyu sprained her ankle. If I don't carry her, she won't be able to walk back by herself."

Wang Qian casually remarked and immediately carried Lin Xiaoyu into the living room.

Huang Bo also carried Wang Niangui in and followed them in.

Although Huang Bo wasn't holding the child and seemed a bit awkward when he did, he was very attentive and kept trying to soothe him.

Because she wasn't hurt, after being carried to the living room, Wang Niangui, who had been crying loudly, surprisingly stopped crying.

Wang Yuanguang and Lu Aihua were also at the door. After coming in and seeing what was going on, the two elderly people blamed themselves and each other.

"It's all your dad's fault. I told him he's been too busy making roasted green pepper sauce lately and that he shouldn't plant vegetables anymore, but he wouldn't listen. Now Xiaoyu went to water the plants and twisted her ankle, didn't she?"

As soon as Lu Aihua finished speaking, Wang Yuanguang glared at her with his old eyes, "Xiaoqian's mother, how dare you blame me? You were the one who suggested planting vegetables first, and I told you long ago to help Xiaoyu take care of the child, but you insisted on making her water the vegetables. It's all your fault!"

"When did I ask her to water the vegetables? Wang Yuanguang, don't lie through your teeth."

"If you didn't tell her to water it, does that mean I shouldn't have?"
