Chapter 32
Chi Yunyi turned around and left with a firm attitude.
What she didn't know was that Xiang Yu noticed her resistance and quickly adjusted his strategy in the minutes before going to bed.
Before noon, the red envelope money arrived in her account—an eight-digit red envelope starting with the number nine, just one dollar away from reaching nine figures. In addition to the red envelope from Xiang Yu, her account also had an additional allowance from Ms. Xu Chunan, totaling eight million yuan.
Xu Chunan: My dear, this year's lucky money has arrived!
【Ignore me: I kneel down to thank the emperor for his grace! 】
Chi Yunyi went to Xiang Yu and asked, "You gave me red envelopes, and your mother gave me New Year's money, so why doesn't your father give me money? Did he give you New Year's money?"
Xiang Yu immediately took out his phone and said, "I'll ask him for it right now."
Chi Yunyi leaned over and watched them chatting.
【X1Y: Dad, red envelope】
【Xiang Huatian: Wait, Dad will transfer it to you right away! 】
【X1Y: And Yiyi's share.】
【Xiang Huatian: Your mother has already given it.】
[X1Y: No, what's hers is hers, and what's yours is yours]
[X1Y: I don’t eat alone, otherwise don’t give it to me.]
[Xiang Huatian: OK, OK, OK. Here you go. Send me her card number.]
Xiang Yu asked, "How about five million?"
Chi Yunyi: "Five million is pretty good."
【X1Y: Transfer five million to her.】
[Xiang Huatian: Are you going to die? Why give me so much?! ! !]
【X1Y: Otherwise, don’t give it to me.】
Xiang Huatian: Okay, okay, I'll give it to her. Five million, and fifty million for you.
Chi Yunyi: “!”
Xiang Yu: "After he transfers it to me, I will transfer it to you."
Chi Yunyi: “Okay~”
After a while, the money arrived.
He didn't rely on himself, but relied entirely on his family to become the A9 asset tycoon.
The annual leave is short, and I have to go back to my hometown to celebrate the New Year. However, it is not Chi Yunyi's hometown, but Xiang Huatian's hometown.
Xiang Huatian just called and asked them to go back home for the New Year.
As a daughter-in-law, Chi Yunyi gave Xiang Yu face. But she didn't intend to do so every year. They both had parents to care for, so why should she spend the New Year at her husband's house? She could just as well spend the New Year at her wife's. Only those who celebrated the New Year knew. She felt most comfortable at home; she felt awkward and uncomfortable anywhere else, including her in-laws'.
Chi Yunyi set a rule for Xiang Yu and said, "I think that in the future, during the Chinese New Year, we can each go back to our own homes and visit our own mothers. Or, to be fair, I will go back to my hometown with you this year, and you will go back to my hometown with me next year. I'm fine with both. Whatever you choose depends on your mood."
“…”
"As for communication, how should I tell your parents? You should do the communicating."
Chi Yunyi doesn't like the old man Xiang Huatian, and Xiang Yu knows it.
After marriage, it is inevitable that there will be disputes between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, but in Chi Yunyi's case, it became a dispute between father-in-law and daughter-in-law. In addition, Xiang Huatian has traditional and old-fashioned ideas, while Chi Yunyi has a more open mind. The two have different ideas, so conflicts are inevitable.
Even someone as skilled as Xiang Yu, who is very capable in the workplace, feels overwhelmed when faced with such a problem.
"Did you hear me?" It's said that men who are easily influenced tend to listen to their wives. Xiang Yu was quite easily influenced.
He finally sighed, "Okay, I promise you."
"I'll go back with you this year, but I'm not sure about next year."
"OK."
Chi Yunyi asked Xiang Yu a question that really tested him: "If your father and I fell into the water at the same time, who would you save first?"
"Save you first."
"Why did you save me first?"
Xiang Yu keenly realized that the answer to this question should be a love word.
"Because you are the most important."
But there are always people who answer with something like "because I can swim" or "because someone else rescued me." These answers aren't wrong, but they're definitely not good. In terms of emotional value, they completely fail.
If this answer is given to Chi Yunyi, she can be overwhelmed by a man in a second, and can also be underwhelmed by a man in a second. Then it would not be unfair for Xiang Yu to go back to his hometown.
Chi Yunyi was surrounded by men who knew how to talk. She had chosen Xiang Yu not only for the marriage, but also because of his looks. If it weren't for lust, she would have always considered Xiang Yu her brother, forever. And as they had agreed before the marriage, they wouldn't interfere with each other's private lives.
She was quite satisfied with Xiang Yu's answer.
"There's a large greenhouse with fruit trees in my hometown. It's owned by my father. I'll take you in there to eat peaches when the time comes."
"The peaches aren't ripe yet."
"Some varieties mature early and are already on the market. For example, the hairy peach, also known as the honey peach."
Chi Yunyi snorted, "Okay, let's pack our luggage." She turned around and lay down on the sofa like Ge You, while Xiang Yu went to pack their luggage.
That night, the plane landed in Lincheng.
The two wore clothes from the same brand and series in two different colors: Xiang Yu in black and Chi Yunyi in light brown.
Xiang Yu insisted that Chi Yunyi wear a hat because Lincheng was located in the north and the temperature was below zero, which was different from the south city.
She doesn't wear it.
As a result, as soon as he landed, he was so cold that he wanted to turn into a little kangaroo and curl up in Xiang Yu's arms to keep warm.
It was the first time for his daughter-in-law to go home for the Chinese New Year, and Xu Chunan attached great importance to it. He and Xiang Huatian went to the airport to pick them up. In the crowd, he saw his young couple walking out hand in hand.
Xu Chunan said to Xiang Huatian: "Look, look, they are wearing couple outfits today."
Xiang Huatian's eyes were filled with his precious son. He hurried forward and took the luggage himself.
Seeing this, Xiang Yu took Chi Yunyi's luggage and handed it to Xiang Huatian.
Without the suitcases as an obstacle, the two can hold hands and follow their parents leisurely and freely like a couple in love.
"Dad, how are the peaches growing in the fruit greenhouse?" Xiang Yu asked as soon as he got in the car.
Xu Chunan: "They are growing beautifully. It's just right that you two are back. Let's go to the greenhouse and play around and pick some peaches to eat."
Xiang Huatian: "You're stealing my words again."
"The peaches are all from our own garden, feel free to pick them."
Xiang Yu continued to ask: "Is it far from home?"
Xiang Huatian: "It's not too far, it only takes a few dozen minutes to drive there."
Xu Chunan added: "It's too late tonight. You two should get some rest first. It won't be too late to go tomorrow."
On the way, the voices gradually became less and less.
Chi Yunyi leaned on Xiang Yu and yawned.
The car stopped in front of a villa. Xu Chunan had already tidied up the room and dried the quilts in advance. The room was on the third floor.
Xiang Yu took the initiative to pack his luggage. Chi Yunyi went to the bathroom to wash up. When she finished her shower, Xiang Yu had just finished tidying up and went over to help her blow dry her hair.
Chi Yunyi was already extremely sleepy.
"Why are you so sleepy today?"
"I didn't sleep well last night. The bed was uncomfortable."
"Then why don't you come back to sleep?"
If she continued asking, Chi Yunyi would lose face. She extended her index finger, not knowing whether to point at the back of her head or at Xiang Yu behind her. "A smart man should learn to shut up."
Oh, this is referring to him.
-
In Xiang Huatian's peach greenhouse, the peaches are growing very big.
Chi Yunyi saw an incredibly large peach, the tree had bent down, and she couldn't even lift it with one hand. With Xiang Yu's help, she finally managed to hold it in her hands. It was bigger than her head and very heavy.
He washed it under the water, opened his mouth wide, and took a big bite of the fruit. Chi Yunyi's eyes were slightly puzzled, "This one isn't sweet enough, is it because it's not ripe yet?"
"Not sweet?" Xiang Yu took it. Chi Yunyi thought he wanted to taste the sweetness, but unexpectedly he threw the peach away directly. The peach fell to the ground with a huge shock, and a hole was made on the ground.
"Hey, my peach...just throw it away like that?"
Xiang Yu pulled her to continue looking for peaches, "Why would you eat it if it's not sweet? There are plenty of them here."
“…”
That makes a lot of sense.
"But is this really okay? What if your dad finds out that we're eating his peaches?"
"I threw the peach."
“But I gnawed on it.”
Xiang Yu stopped and said seriously, "I just said I ate it."
"..." Chi Yunyi slapped him, "I thought you were going to say something domineering!"
Two Sun Wukongs entered the Peach Garden. Not only did they eat their fill of peaches, they also picked a box of peaches and brought them back for Xu Chunan and Xiang Huatian.
Chi Yunyi recorded today's trip to the peach greenhouse into a vlog, and all these interesting moments were recorded in it.
On New Year’s Eve, we get together to have the New Year’s Eve dinner.
Xu Chunan prepared a New Year's gift for Chi Yunyi, including a set of jewelry.
Xiang Huatian opened a bottle of good wine. Chi Yunyi knew the value of the wine and happily drank a few more glasses. When she wanted to continue drinking, Xiang Yu took away her glass and said, "No more drinking."
"There's no point looking at me."
"Just don't drink it."
In front of Xiang Yu's parents, Chi Yunyi gave him this face. But if this situation happened in her own home, she would definitely get Xiang Yu drunk, pack up and throw him back to the bedroom, and then go downstairs to continue drinking.
Xu Chunan and Xiang Huatian were still looking at them. Taking this opportunity, Chi Yunyi said, "To be honest, Mr. Xiang always means what he says at home. I just won't drink." She felt aggrieved.
“……?”
Xu Chunan laughed it off: "Drinking too much alcohol can really harm your body," she even reminded Xiang Huatian beside her, "You should stop drinking too."
Xiang Yu turned around and whispered to her, "When did I say what I mean?"
Chi Yunyi smiled evilly, "Humph, this is just the beginning. If you don't let me have my fun, just wait and see."
"What the hell are you doing?"
"You'll know soon."
After the New Year’s Eve dinner, Xiang Huatian and his wife watched the Spring Festival Gala, and Xiang Yu sat next to them.
Suddenly, Chi Yunyi brought a basin of hot water and placed it at Xiang Yu's feet.
"?"
In front of Xiang Huatian and his wife, she knelt on the ground and acted like a maid: "Mr. Xiang, it's time to wash your feet."
Xiang Yu: “???”
Xu Chunan stood up immediately, "What's going on, Xiang Yu! Is this how you order Yi Yi around at home?!"
Xiang Huatian's expression was equally brilliant. "How foolish of you! How can you let your wife wash your feet? And on her knees? Are you going to give up?"
Facing the two elders' questioning, Xiang Yu was also confused, "I didn't!"
Chi Yunyi tried to pull his feet away, but Xiang Yu's feet were dangling in the air, and he shrunk onto the sofa. "You, you hurry up and get up."
"Why did you get up? You haven't washed your feet yet." She looked innocent and said to Xu Chunan and Xiang Huatian, "Uncle and aunt, I often wash his feet like this at home."
Xiang Yu shouted, "Don't hurt me!"
Hearing this, Xu Chunan wanted to take action.
Xiang Huatian stopped her, "No, no, no, the child is grown up, please save some face."
This is really hard to explain.
Chi Yunyi just refused to get up. Seeing that she was about to be beaten, Xiang Yu took a step forward, carried the kneeling person onto the sofa, pulled her feet over, took off her socks, pressed them into the hot water, and began to scrub them carefully.
The movements are smooth, agile and skillful.
The hot water splashed out, leaving spots of water on the tile floor.
Xu Chunan's facial expression eased slightly.
She sat down, took Chi Yunyi's hand, and said, "Yiyi, listen, in our family, there has never been a reason for women to serve men. If he bullies you like this again, just tell me directly!"
Xu Chunan is worthy of being the head of the Xiang family, his majesty and dominance are immediately apparent.
Xiang Yu was still rubbing his feet seriously, looking at Chi Yunyi with dim eyes.
"Also, the head of a family doesn't necessarily have to be a man. Whoever is more capable has the final say. Only incompetent men pretend to be the boss at home. I'll beat up any man like that if I see him."
As expected, it’s Xu Chunan.
This woman who stepped on Xiang Huatian was so courageous.
Chi Yunyi's eyes sparkled, "Okay, I'll remember that!"
She turned her head and glanced at the man in front of her. "What's the matter? You look unhappy. Are you unwilling to wash my feet?"
Xu Chunan looked at Xiang Yu coldly again.
Xiang Huatian trembled.
Xiang Yu: "I am very happy and willing."
Chi Yunyi pressed on: "Then why don't you smile?"
Xiang Yu forced out a smile that he had to laugh.
