After hanging up the phone, Jiang Xia became energetic and radiant. He got up, changed into clean clothes, sprayed some hairspray on his hair, and styled himself into a handsome look. Looking in the mirror, he was sure his wife would give him a kiss the moment she saw him.
After washing up, I didn't see anyone else at home. As always, there was a concise note on the table.
son:
I have some things to take care of at school. I'll buy my own groceries and have lunch at your mother-in-law's house. Don't worry about your dad.
Mother
7:27
Looking at the 200 yuan pressed down in a small box on the table, Jiang Xia's lips twitched slightly. He used to not have this much for a week's living expenses. Now that he has a girlfriend, he feels like he has never lacked money.
Besides, how can you call it freeloading? That's his own wife! Isn't it normal for a husband and wife to eat together?
He naturally put the 200 yuan activity fund into his bag and took out his phone to send a message to the company group.
[Jiang·Boss·Xia]: @Everyone, meet at Ionia Internet Cafe at 6:30 tonight, let's celebrate the start of Tom and Jerry's live stream!
[Lin, the Boss Lady, Yanwan]: Ionia Internet Cafe? It seems... Chen Yao works there, right? (smile.jpg)
[Art Concept Artist - Wang Ming]: Holy crap! There's something going on!? I never would have guessed, Lao Jiang, you're actually this kind of person!
[Operations Director - Shen Ying]: Boss, no way, no way, you're not really having an affair behind the boss's wife's back, are you?
[Jiang, Boss Xia]: What nonsense are you all spouting? It's only easy to get things done if you have connections. Otherwise, how could we book a private room in advance? Do you expect me to go to an internet cafe to reserve seats? Okay, that's all, meeting adjourned!
After finishing the morning meeting, Jiang Xia hummed a song as he left home, and on the way, he called his beloved wife, wondering if he should hurry up and turn last night's dream into reality.
Good morning, my dear wife.
"You're coming over? Hmm... then buy some breakfast. Xiaoman wants soy milk and fried dough sticks."
"And you?"
"Please bring me a steamed bun, just one. Buying too many would be a waste since I can't eat them all."
"Yes, mahjong."
After buying breakfast at the steamed bun shop downstairs from his home, Jiang Xia hailed a taxi and headed straight to his wife's house.
When I got home, I saw that the door was unlocked, with only a small stool propping it up.
It's just like how we used to tell him not to sleep in bed, but in the end, we still left a crack in the door for him.
He gently pushed the door open and saw his wife combing her sister-in-law's hair. She herself was wearing a white t-shirt and denim overalls, and her long, slender, and fair legs were very eye-catching.
"Good morning, brother-in-law!" Xiaoman's face lit up with joy when she saw him.
"Good morning, Xiaoman." Jiang Xia smiled slightly, walked into the kitchen, cut the fried dough sticks into sections, and reheated the soy milk.
Then he brought the steamed bun close to his wife's mouth and said, "I'll feed you."
"It's not like I don't have hands." Lin Yanwan couldn't help but roll her eyes at him.
"I just want to feed you, what's it to you? Open your mouth, ah~"
Ah~~~
The one who said this was Lin Xiaoman. She opened her mouth and stared longingly at the steamed bun in her brother-in-law's hand.
“I won’t give you any. This is your sister’s. Your breakfast is soy milk and fried dough sticks,” he couldn’t help but laugh.
So, Lin Yanwan opened her mouth and took a small bite, then proudly shook her head in front of her sister. So what if he calls her brother-in-law sweetly? He's still her dear husband.
"Hmph, all they do is show off their love all the time. I'm still a child." Xiaoman pouted.
Jiang Xia smiled without saying a word, feeding his wife bite by bite. He fed her a steamed bun and a sip of milk, but he accidentally used a little force, and the cloudy milk overflowed from her little mouth.
"Hmm...too many have come in."
Lin Yanwan puffed out her cheeks and finally swallowed with difficulty, slowly wiping the milk from her lips. She glared at him with embarrassment and annoyance. Couldn't this guy be more careful?
"Sorry, sorry, I couldn't help myself just now." Jiang Xia took the straw out of her mouth with a sullen look on his face, but for some reason he felt that his wife's behavior just now was a bit risqué.
"Just put it on the table, I'll eat it myself," she said.
"Um……"
Two minutes later, Lin Yanwan finished tying her sister's hair, clapped her hands and said, "Alright, hurry up and wash your hands and go eat."
The two sisters were eating breakfast, while Jiang Xia sat on a futon, petting a taro ball. This little cat only knows how to sleep all day long, it doesn't seem to need much sleep.
"Go scoop up Taro Ball's cat poop, okay? It looks like we're out of cat food, and the water needs changing too," Lin Yanwan said, glancing at him as she ate Hua Juan'er.
"All right."
After scooping the litter box, feeding the cat, and changing the water, Lin Yanwan had almost finished eating, while her sister-in-law held the cat and watched TV.
“I received a call from Editor Zhou this morning; the contract payment should be deposited into the account today,” Jiang Xia suddenly said.
"Really? But I haven't received the text message yet."
"Does this era have text message notifications?" he asked in disbelief.
"I think so. When I opened the account, the bank teller specifically mentioned this issue to me." Lin Yanwan pursed her lips, not entirely sure. "If we haven't received a text message, we can check with the bank this afternoon."
"Okay, let's also withdraw their salaries and pay them today." Jiang Xia smiled.
"How much? 700?"
"Let's give each person 1,000, and the extra will be considered as overtime bonuses for this period of time."
He revealed a sinister smile as he spoke: "Bonuses are always the best motivation for employees to work hard. There are still two months of summer vacation left. After the vacation, everyone has to work overtime! 12 episodes in two months, even if it's 996 or 007, you have to grind them out for me!"
