Xie Yan was wearing cotton and linen gloves and was about to bend down to put the porcelain pieces together. He looked at his arm and saw some dust on it. "Be good, stay away from me. I'm too dirty."

Xue Qingdai asked him in surprise: "Brother Yan, how did you know it was me?"

When he heard Xue Qingdai's footsteps, he knew that the person behind him was his wife.

There was some sweat on Xie Yan's resolute forehead, which gradually flowed down along the edges. Xue Qingdai gently wiped away the bean-sized beads of sweat that were about to fall, and veins were faintly visible on his bronze skin.

“I just know.”

"I'm thirsty, pour me a cup of tea, and some from Shi Ming."

Xie Yan glanced sideways at his friend who had been standing silently by the side.

Shi Ming: "Yes, sister-in-law, I can just drink some from the water pipe."

"No, I'll make some good tea. The yield of tea leaves is very low, and it tastes very sweet."

While waiting for Xue Qingdai to leave, Shi Ming scraped the mud off his shoes with a shovel.

"Xie Yan, you have really changed. When you are with your brother and sister-in-law, your voice becomes gentler and your eyes are smiling."

"You won't be alone until the end of your life like before. Who said before that I would let my fiancée go free? I can't delay her."

Xie Yan took off his cotton vest and threw it into the enamel basin. His muscles were well-defined and firm. He used cold water to rinse off the dirt on his arms.

He thought for a long time and replied coldly: "Don't you know what you are talking about?"

Shi Ming: “Don’t know?”

"Call me early to pick you up, because you're worried your wife will be cold."

"I used up three years of allowances and bonuses to buy large appliances for my wedding."

"I'm eager to build a clean shower room for them."

Xie Yan's pants were a little dirty, and his brows were furrowed. "These are all trivial matters."

Shi Ming whispered in his ear, "Don't let this make me feel guilty about not being able to have a baby."

"No!" Xie Yan answered immediately, "I just want to be good to her, I don't have any other thoughts. As for the matter of the child, I will listen to my wife."

Seeing that Xie Yan seemed worthless in the eyes of Xue Qingdai, Shi Ming clarified his previous doubts and helped Xie Yan keep his youthful and frivolous remarks secret.

"You two should live a good life. Your sister-in-law's personality is very suitable for you. She is like a little sun warming you."

"Your sister-in-law and I quarrel every day. We can only live apart. You don't know how much I envy you."

Xie Yan picked up the socks from the clothes drying rack with an expressionless face, "My wife picked them out for me."

His eyes were calm, as if to say, "Just continue to envy."

Shi Ming: "Bah! I always knew you, Xie Yan."

"Hey, your socks look familiar. Let me see them."

It seemed like the ugly socks his sister gave him when she bought him clothes yesterday.

Xue Qingdai eavesdropped for a while and immediately sounded the alarm in her heart.

Pulling Xie Yan's arm affectionately, "I made your favorite black tea. This time I am more skilled than last time."

She stretched out her red-hot fingers as if nothing had happened and waved them at Xie Yan's side. Xie Yan's sharp eyes immediately locked onto them and he grasped them with his cool big hand.

"Bured?" Xie Yan's voice was anxious, no longer as calm as before.

Xue Qingdai hid her hands behind her back and said, "No, no, try the tea I made."

Shi Ming had already finished the drink in one gulp without savoring it.

"Yes, Erguotou is not as delicious as this."

Xue Qingdai was amused by his dry humor and unexpectedly met Xie Yan's cold eyes.

Xie Yan was often taught by his father. He had to learn how to drink tea and taste tea since he was a child, and learn some checks and balances. He pursed his lips and said in a low voice: "It tastes good, but don't be so anxious next time."

Xue Qingdai snorted secretly and thought it was good enough to make tea for him.

Shi Ming went to ask his sister Shi Yue to go to the state-owned restaurant together.

Xue Qingdai was "scolded" by Xie Yan in the yard.

The slightly cool mint scent wafted through Xue Qingdai's hands, and her long black curly hair fell on her shoulders.

Xie Yan was not in the mood to appreciate her. He squatted beside Xue Qingdai, taller than her when she was sitting.

With broad shoulders, a tall and strong body, and a huge figure, Xie Yan's size makes him feel oppressive even when he is squatting.

Xue Qingdai was distractedly looking at the vest that Xie Yan had thrown into the basin.

Tsk! He puts medicine on her without putting on clothes, just because he wants her. You can look but not touch.

"What are you thinking about?" Xie Yan tapped her forehead with his fingers. "One moment your feet are rubbed raw, the next moment your hands are burned."

"You are so delicate. I resisted the urge to kiss you hard these past few days, but you hurt yourself."

Xue Qingdai angrily tapped Xie Yan's chest with one hand and pushed him closer and closer. The scent of tea lingering around them became stronger and stronger.

Xie Yan held her wrists together and hugged her in his arms, "Oh, if I had known, I wouldn't have agreed to let Shi Ming go to the state-owned restaurant. I could have done it another day."

"Why? You finally have time to take me out. I won't agree. I'm going."

Xie Yan's jade-like slender joints penetrated her curly hair, with a hint of resentment.

"Think about why. You fell asleep early every night these past few days, and woke up in the morning to ask me to wash your face, and you wouldn't let me touch it."

"No." Her voice was soft and sweet, and playing tricks came naturally to her.

She has growth pains and can't be touched at all. It hurts so much.

Xie Yan moved his legs and stood up with his tall body. Xue Qingdai was immediately frightened and hugged him tightly, hanging on his neck.

Xue Qingdai looked at the ground far away. She was a little afraid of heights and always felt uneasy at certain heights.

The soft nails scratched Xie Yan's neck, and his body gradually became more tense.

Xue Qingdai pouted her red lips, quite reluctantly, "Then I'll give you a kiss for a while, but you have to take me out."

"If you had said that just now, I would have agreed." Xie Yan's cold face suddenly turned into a wanton smirk.

He was uncompromising and even greedy in this regard.

Although these days were her special days, the two of them had just arrived at the military region and had not rested for a day. They had eaten several meals and suddenly they were hungry for many days.

Xie Yan was still young and strong, and was quietly learning some tricks, always wanting to take some action.

Xue Qingdai was cornered by him and had no choice but to let Xie Yan loosen his arms. She knew that Xie Yan would not let her get hurt, but he was just being mean and wanted to get some benefits from her.

"Then you can take a look at it, but you can't touch it~"

Xie Yan placed his tall nose on the side of her neck and sniffed it gently. There was a sweet fragrance, but it was a pity that it was not the right time.

"Let's talk after dinner."

By the time Shi Ming and Shi Yue sat in the back seat of the car, anyone with a discerning eye could sense that the atmosphere between the two people in front was a bit weird and sticky.

The dishes in the state-owned restaurants in the county are not as varied as those in the capital, but the chefs are skilled.

Xue Qingdai seldom took action, so Xie Yan always helped her to pick things up.

I heard a familiar voice coming from the next table, "Go somewhere else and stop talking about my sister. If you disturb her life, I, Xue Yongkang, will never forgive you!"

Xue Qingdai had just stood up when Xie Yan pressed her shoulders down. "Sit still. I'll go check it out first. I'm not going to hurt you."

"No, I also want to go find my third brother. I haven't seen him for a long time."
