Her misogynistic mother accepted a high-priced bride price and married her to a man with disabled legs. She was ridiculed for half her life. Facing the婆婆's (mother-in-law's) constant nitpic...
To reward Jiang Xun, Ye Li cooked two bowls of noodle soup.
The long and thin noodles are made with eggs, and green onions float in the clear soup. There is a round poached egg in each bowl.
Jiang Xun really likes the noodles made by Ye Li. The noodles are chewy and the soup has a long aftertaste. He always eats everything in the bowl.
He had already eaten all of it, but Ye Li still had more noodles in his bowl.
She looked up at her man's unfulfilled look, smiled slightly, and passed the egg in her bowl to Jiang Xun.
"You eat."
Jiang Xun discovered that every time Ye Li ate noodle soup, he would save the poached egg for last and then pass the egg to him to eat.
"I'm full, you eat."
Jiang Xun passed the egg to Ye Li again.
...
...
"I can't eat it. There are too many noodles tonight. I can't finish it! You eat some for me!" After saying that, Ye Li picked up the noodles and put them into Jiang Xun's bowl.
"Li Li, you should eat more. You are too thin." Jiang Xun's eyes fell on her waist.
His mind pictured her slender waist, which he could control with one hand.
"I'm not thin, I just have a thin waist." Ye Li didn't think much about it, but urged him to eat the noodles, "If you don't eat, the noodles will not taste good. You don't want me to feed you, do you?"
It was just a joke originally.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Xun agreed: "Okay, if you feed me, I will eat."
Ye Li was slightly stunned. She really didn't expect Jiang Xun to agree.
"Okay, I'll feed you then." Ye Li picked up his bowl, picked up a piece of noodles with chopsticks and put it to his lips, "Ah~ open your mouth."
Jiang Xun shook his head: "That's not the way to feed it."
"How do you feed it then?"
Jiang Xun pointed at her lips and said, "Feed with your mouth."
Ye Li was stunned again.
Then the scene of myself eating the noodles and spitting them into his mouth emerged in my mind.
Could it be that... he likes this kind of tune? Has this kind of fetish?
Jiang Xun seemed to see through her thoughts. He curled the corner of his mouth slightly, raised one arm, grabbed the back of her head, and pulled her in front of him.
Before Ye Li could react, his other arm was around her waist, holding her on his lap, and his warm lips covered hers.
This was his second kiss with her, but it seemed that this time the feeling was much more wonderful than the first time.
Jiang Xun's kissing technique had improved greatly compared to last time. He started with a light test, kissing her lips gently, and then he explored deeply, lingering with her.
Ye Li's heart beat faster, his cheeks felt hot, his breathing quickened, and a tingling sensation like an electric shock spread through his entire body along his spine.
I have to admit that men are sometimes naturally good at this.
This kiss was longer and more affectionate than the first one.
Ye Li felt his whole body limp, as if all his strength had been drained away by him.
She wrapped her arms tightly around his neck, just like vines wrapped around a tree.
It took a long time before Jiang Xun let her go.
Ye Li took the opportunity to lean her head on his shoulder, breathing softly.
"Wife." Jiang Xun suddenly spoke, his hoarse voice revealing a hint of desire, "You are so sweet!"
Ye Li smiled, with a happy arc on the corners of his mouth.
She stood up, with a smile in her eyes, and looked into Jiang Xun's dark eyes: "Jiang Xun, I can be even sweeter."
Jiang Xun's heart beat faster because of these words, and a flame rose in his eyes.
"How sweet is it?"
Ye Li smiled, held Jiang Xun's face with both hands, and kissed his lips gently again and again.
"Jiang Xun." She released his lips. "This is a reward for you! Thank you, thank you for standing up for me! You are my hero! I love you!"
When Jiang Xun saw her, a hint of joy appeared in his eyes and eyebrows.
Even though she married him, hearing the word "like" from her mouth made his heart beat fast.
In this world, there is a woman who doesn't care about his legs and says she likes him!
How exciting and happy this made him!
Jiang Xun raised his hands and hugged her tightly in his arms, whispering over and over again: "Li Li, thank you! I like you too! I like you too! I like you too!"
The next day.
As expected, the news about Hu Jingjing spread throughout the alley and the machinery factory.
Jiang Xi worked half a day and was able to withstand the pressure. He asked for leave from the workshop director and left the factory early.
Instead of going home, he went to the police station and wanted to see Hu Jingjing.
However, the police officer at the police station told him that the person had been transferred to the Municipal Public Security Bureau and could not be seen for the time being.
"Municipal Public Security Bureau? Why should it be transferred to the Municipal Public Security Bureau?"
"Don't ask about things you shouldn't ask about. I can only tell you that this matter is serious!"
After hearing this, Jiang Xi returned to the slum in a daze.
The whole Wen seemed to have suffered a great blow. He was in a state of depression for a week. He did nothing but sleep and never stepped out of the room.
This week, everyone in the compound was discussing privately the embarrassing things that happened in the Jiang family.
Even when Zhao Xingmei went out to buy groceries, she had to hide from people, for fear of being asked about this.
Everyone in the compound seemed to be affected to some extent by this incident, except Ye Li and Jiang Xun, who continued to go out early and come back late every day, and their lives went on as usual.
One week later, Captain Liu from the police station came again with his men.
Also accompanying Captain Liu this time was Director Jia from the street office.
As soon as they appeared, the slum became lively again.
Aunt Jiang was cooking in the kitchen. When she heard that the police were coming, she rushed out without even putting down her spoon.
"Director Jia! Public Security Comrades, why are you here? Is there any conclusion to Hu Jingjing's case? How is it?"
Aunt Jiang always rushes out at the slightest sign of trouble and is the first to watch the show.
When she shouted in such a loud voice, all the neighbors in the yard came out.
Jiang Xun, who was originally lying in the house, rushed out without even putting on his shoes when he heard that the police were coming.
"Comrade Public Security, is there any result on Jingjing's case? What happened? When can she go home?"
Zhao Xingmei had just entered the house when she heard her son mention Hu Jingjing. She rushed to the police officer carrying vegetables and asked, "My daughter-in-law is back?"
Captain Liu shook his head and denied: "She hasn't come back! She can't come back! Zhang Saner and others committed hooliganism, and she committed instigation. And that Wang Hongxia, her crime is not light either. I'm not here for this matter today, I'm here for another matter!"
Zhao Xingmei was a little disappointed, but she still asked, "Comrade, why are you here? Is it related to our family?"
Captain Liu nodded: "Yes! It is indeed related to your family! Is Comrade Jiang Xun at home? Please ask him to come out!"
When Zhao Xingmei saw that they were looking for Jiang Xun, she was confused for a moment: "He... he is not at home, he is still at work, public security comrade... what happened to him?"
When Captain Liu heard that Jiang Xun was not at home, he turned around and said to Director Jia, "He's not here! Since he's not here, you've made this trip in vain!"
“No, no. It is our street’s honor to cooperate with the public security comrades.”
"In that case, I'll go to his unit! That's a good idea. I'll go to his unit and report this matter to his leader!" Captain Liu said.
The more Zhao Xingmei listened, the more she felt something was wrong: "Comrade, what happened to my Jiang Xun? Tell me quickly, I'm old and can't stand any more stimulation!"
