Chapter 53 Who do you want to ride on?

I guess he's just trying to save face. He has all his belongings on him and is just using the title of a worker to show off.

Thinking about it this way, Ma Dongmei felt much better and discussed with her husband about returning to her parents' home after the Spring Festival.

When Zhao Sheng returned to the room, he saw Lin Yiyi sitting on the kang knitting a sweater, and Tiedan lying on the table, writing numbers distractedly. The child had just started to hold the pen, so his posture was awkward and he couldn't control the strength of his hands well, so his writing was crooked and the strokes were unexpected.

Tiedan would look up at Lin Yiyi and smile foolishly from time to time, then lower his head to continue drawing talismans, repeating this over and over again without getting tired of it.

The atmosphere was so quiet that it was a little weird. In a marriage without an emotional tone, being alone was really suffocating.

Lin Yiyi stole a glance at the man sitting at the desk. Thinking about his mama's boy behavior over the past two days, she didn't want to talk to him and continued with what she was doing.

Zhao Sheng patiently waited for Lin Yiyi to take the initiative, tapping the table with his fingers. After almost half an hour, the woman still didn't take the initiative to speak. He looked a little embarrassed, and deliberately took out two pieces of clothes from the closet and handed them to Lin Yiyi, saying in a muffled voice: "The clothes are dirty."

Lin Yiyi: “…”

I feel like pulling the yarn skewer in my hand away. What’s going on?

Regardless of his explicit hints, Lin Yiyi ignored him and said softly, "You need to wash clothes, right? I happen to have some dirty clothes too, so you can wash them too, Brother Sheng. Remember to wash with hot water to avoid freezing your hands."

Zhao Sheng stared at her motionlessly, wondering if he had misheard. How could a wife not wash clothes for her husband?

It's simply outrageous. When he was single and not married, it was fine for him to wash himself. Now that he is married, his wife must wash him. Otherwise, why did he get married?

The man said in a deep voice: "You wash!"

The problem of male chauvinism cannot be questioned.

Lin Yiyi knew that he was sick again, so she couldn't argue with him and had to cater to him.

Even though she was unwilling in her heart, she could only suppress her temper. After a moment, she pretended to be weak and whispered to the black-faced man, "Okay, I'll listen to Brother Sheng."

After Lin Yiyi finished speaking, she turned her head away and began to sob, pretending to cry.

Afraid that Zhao Sheng couldn't see it, she shrugged her shoulders as if she had suffered a great injustice. Zhao Sheng was stunned by this sudden change. Seeing her trembling with tears, which was so unlovable, his heart softened a little, and he immediately asked.

"Why are you crying? Who bullied you?" Zhao Sheng walked to the kang and sat next to Lin Yiyi, looking down at her.

She was fine just now, why is she crying? He didn't say anything harsh to her.

"Nothing." Lin Yiyi felt the man approaching and rubbed her eyes vigorously with both hands, making them red. It was fake crying in the first place, so she still had to put in enough effort to act.

When he opened his mouth, his voice sounded hoarse, but it was nothing even though it was like this.

Zhao Sheng knew that she was in a bad mood, and he couldn't do anything about it, so he compromised and said, "I'll wash the clothes myself, don't cry, I know you're being lazy, this is just one time, it won't happen again. How can a wife not wash clothes for her husband? You still have to wash clothes in the future, understand?"

After hearing the first half of the man's words, Lin Yiyi calmed down as she achieved her goal. She didn't feel embarrassed at all. She turned around and leaned on Zhao Sheng's shoulder, saying coquettishly, "Brother Sheng, you are so nice. I just remembered the sad things at home. I'm not trying to be lazy. You wronged me."

Lin Yiyi considerately put the man's dirty clothes into her own enamel basin for dirty clothes and handed it to Zhao Sheng.

The man took the initiative to give in, and was he afraid that he wouldn't give in two, three, or more steps? Fortunately, he fell for it, otherwise it would be embarrassing.

"You're not afraid of Tiedan laughing at you."

Zhao Sheng didn't expose her little trick. He stared at her delicate face, pinched it with his hand, and reluctantly took the dirty clothes out to wash. Originally, he only needed to wash two pieces, but now with Lin Yiyi's clothes, the basin became a big one.

Zhao's mother, Wang Caihong, had a warm conversation with her eldest son's family in the main house. The family was reunited, and the clear and cheerful laughter that filled the yard seemed to melt the winter snow.

Thinking about his eldest son's family having a good meal and living comfortably at home, he went to the door of the third room and asked Ma Dongmei to heat the kang in the room where the eldest son lived, and asked Zhao Li to slaughter the wild rabbit tied in the chicken coop, intending to add more meat dishes to lunch.

Just as she was about to call the people from the second room, Wang Caihong saw Zhao Sheng squatting by the well washing clothes. Her face suddenly fell. She stood in front of the window of the second room and shouted at Lin Yiyi who was enjoying the leisure time in the room: "As the saying goes, a good man has no good wife. My poor son, the first one you married was a black-hearted woman, and the second one is a thousand-year-old female insect that has turned into a spirit. She makes her husband work like a cow and a horse to wash clothes for her, but she is lucky and has to lie dead in the room."

The mother-in-law started making a fuss again. Lin Yiyi calmly put down the wool and told Tiedan to write seriously.

She slowly found Zhao Sheng's thick cotton jacket from the closet and put it on. She opened the door and looked at Wang Caihong, who was furious. She raised her hand to lift a few strands of hair from her forehead, leaned against the door frame like a willow in the wind, her bright red lips were eye-catching, and her tone was tender: "Mom, what's the matter with you?"

Lin Yiyi glanced at the man not far away, and her words were not as restrained as before.

"You are hiding in the house laying eggs. It was fine that you smashed the basin and acted like a tyrant when I asked you to help wash two pieces of clothes before, but today, you didn't even wash the second child's clothes and asked a grown man to wash them. You are going too far and you even want to bully your own man?" Seeing that she had obviously just gotten up from the kang, Wang Caihong's anger rose.

The clothes were all messed up after being slept on the kang in broad daylight. No wonder her son was willing to wash the clothes himself and was reluctant to let this slut do it.

"Mom, don't lose your temper yet. I have my own reasons." Lin Yiyi blinked and had some evil ideas.

Wang Caihong put her hands on her hips, snorted softly, and said sarcastically, "Oh, do you have any hardship? I want to see what you can come up with!"

"To be honest, I believe mother still remembers that I fell into the river and caught a cold. I went to the town clinic and was told that I needed to take care of myself and could not touch cold or raw water, otherwise it would affect my childbearing. Brother Sheng did this for our future. Besides, I am not riding on another man's head. For the sake of a future life with children and grandchildren around me, I must not touch raw or cold water before I get pregnant. Even if mother wants to torture me for this, I will accept it."

Of course, she made all these words up.

"What? Can't have children? Oh my god, I married a hen that doesn't lay eggs. All the gifts I paid are wasted. When did I ever bully you? Stop talking nonsense to me!"

Lin Yiyi was a little speechless. This mother-in-law was really able to relate: "Just don't touch raw or cold water, you need to take care of it."

After listening to the long string of words, Wang Caihong finally realized the weirdness of the second half of the words, "You still want to ride on other wild men's heads? You are shameless."

Lin Yiyi flicked her nails and said calmly, "I didn't say anything. I can't help you if you think that way, Mom."

Wang Caihong: “…”

The sarcastic words were blocked in his mouth and he could not utter any more words.
