"I'm back, to my big room." Su Xingyi opened the courtyard door, and Su Ningjie took two steps at a time and went straight to the main hall of the large flat.
"Second brother, wait a minute." Su Ning'an pulled Su Ningjie's collar.
Su Ningjie could only stay where he was. "Brother, what's wrong? I still need to go and see my room. I haven't lived in it yet."
"You have to wipe the soles of your shoes clean before you go in." Su Ning'an bent down, picked up the dry rag on the stone steps, and was about to wipe the soles of his shoes.
"Brother, let me do it myself. When did you become so particular?"
Xiao Xier came closer and said, "There's a lot of cow and sheep dung on the village roads, and there's even mud when it rains. Our new house is paved with large, flat wooden boards and a beautiful, patterned blanket. If it gets covered with cow and sheep dung and mud, our new house will become just like an old house."
Su Ningwen added: "My mother wants us to pay attention to hygiene and be clean."
After hearing this, Su Ningjie polished the soles of his shoes more carefully.
"Second brother, hurry up and wipe it, we all have to wipe it."
"Oh, okay."
Xiao Lingyu didn't expect that the children would always remember what she said when she first came.
Xiao Lingyu ignored the children and turned to Su Xingyi, "Xingyi, come with me to the vegetable garden next door to pick some vegetables and plant some rare ingredients."
"Xiao Yu, I can handle it by myself, you stay with the kids."
Xiao Lingyu raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Of course you do it alone, and I'll stand by and watch."
Xiao Lingyu took his arm and said, "Let's go quickly. Let's finish the work and go to bed early."
Su Xingyi lowered his eyes and glanced at the two small hands on his arms, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously rose.
When Xiaoyu is in a good mood, she likes to hold his arm.
So does this count as her overstepping the boundaries?
When they arrived at the backyard, Xiao Lingyu let go of Su Xingyi and went straight to the small water tank.
"Xingyi, hurry up and pick the vegetables."
When Xiao Lingyu saw him bending down to pick vegetables, he quickly filled the small water tank with spiritual spring water.
It was dark and he couldn't find it.
Xiao Lingyu was actually just watching from the side, with no intention of lending a hand at all.
With his beautiful lady by his side, Su Xingyi worked particularly hard.
On the way, Su Ning'an came over carrying a hoe, but Su Xingyi sent him back to boil water for a bath.
As soon as Su Ning'an left, Xiao Lingyu followed him back to the next room.
Su Xingyi suddenly spoke, his tone a little anxious and aggrieved, "Xiao Yu, don't leave. You just said you would watch me grow peppers."
Xiao Lingyu quickly coaxed him like he did to Xiao Xier, "Okay, I won't leave. I'll stay with you."
Su Xingyi smiled instantly, "Don't wait too long, I'll finish planting soon."
Xiao Lingyu was stunned for a moment. Su Xingyi was a big kid.
She still needs to be coaxed.
Seeing that all the rare ingredients had been planted, Xiao Lingyu quickly picked up the watering can and used the spiritual spring water to water the vegetable field.
"Xiao Yu, let me do it." Su Xingyi grabbed the watering can and watered the vegetable field with the spiritual spring water in about two minutes.
"Okay, we can go back now." Xiao Lingyu put his arm around Su Xingyi as he did when they came.
Xiao Lingyu took two steps forward without pulling Su Xingyi, "Why don't you leave?"
"Xiao Yu, you've overstepped your bounds."
Xiao Lingyu: "...Where did I overstep the bounds?"
Su Xingyi lowered his eyes and looked at the two small hands on his arms. "You said that we can't have physical contact between us, but now we have physical contact..."
There is nothing wrong with what he said.
Xiao Lingyu quickly let go, and Su Xingyi raised his hand and held her wrist.
Xiao Lingyu smiled awkwardly, "I didn't mean it, don't take it to heart."
Su Xingyi looked at Xiao Lingyu under the moonlight and was silent for a few breaths before saying, "But, I've taken it to heart. You would grab my arm and pat my shoulder from time to time, and we actually had physical contact. After all, men and women shouldn't be intimate with each other. Now that this is happening, even if we are actually husband and wife, you have to take responsibility..."
Su Xingyi spoke the latter part in a low voice without confidence.
Xiao Lingyu was speechless for a moment.
No way, she should be held responsible?!
She had merely grasped his arm.
Such an ordinary thing is nothing to her.
He still refused to give in. Well, the ancients were indeed very strict about the separation between men and women.
If a woman falls into the water and is rescued by a man, even if her innocence is ruined, she will be tied up together. This is really...
"Well, now you're holding my wrist, so we're even."
Su Xingyi said: "But you grabbed my arm many times, twice tonight..."
Xiao Lingyu reacted instantly and realized that this was a request to get it back.
What about kissing her secretly?
Isn't that even more inappropriate?
But once she brought this up, wouldn't it let him know that it was she who bit him that night?
She is the big mosquito.
Now that she had her arm around his, she wanted to get it back. If he knew, wouldn't he want to kiss her back?
Su Xingyi is becoming more and more cunning...
Xiao Lingyu raised her curled eyelashes, twitched her lips, and extended her other wrist. "Then you can hold my wrist too. It's exactly two wrists, so it's even."
Su Xingyi looked at her with burning eyes and didn't say a word for a long time.
Xiao Lingyu felt his burning gaze, her heart trembled, and she retracted her outstretched hand and placed it behind her back.
"So what do you think would make it even?"
Su Xingyi leaned forward and whispered in her ear, "I really want to hug you, can I?"
Xiao Lingyu glanced at the chest so close to her. She had wanted to touch his broad and firm chest before. "Hugging me will make us even?"
Su Xingyi was delighted and spoke in a hurried tone, while his other hand had reached out to Xiao Lingyu's back without him noticing.
Ranran had already put his arms around her and was just about to hug her.
"It's even now. You used to grab my arm and touch my shoulder but never mentioned it again... Can I hug you now?" Su Xingyi asked again uncertainly.
Xiao Lingyu was surrounded by Su Xingyi's aura, and felt a little dizzy for a moment, and threw herself into his arms...
The full moon hung high in the night sky, illuminating the two people hugging each other in the yard.
The surroundings were so quiet that only the sounds of their breathing and heartbeats could be heard...
"Dad! Mom!" Su Ning'an's loud voice suddenly rang out, "The hot water is ready."
The two of them hurriedly separated and saw Su Ning'an coming over again with a hoe.
"Boss, the rare ingredients have been planted. Let's lock the door and go back." After Xiao Lingyu said this, he walked past Su Ning'an and left first.
Su Ning'an glanced at Su Xingyi, whose face was flushed. "Dad, why is your face so red?"
Su Xingyi quickly reached out and wiped his forehead. "Dad needs to exercise more. He's sweating from doing this little work."
Su Xingan said hurriedly: "From now on, I will do all the heavy work, and Dad can just watch from the side."
Su Xingyi felt guilty after hearing this and decided not to make up lies in front of the children anymore.
"Dad has to do the hard work. He can't sit idle. He needs to work hard and sweat a little so that his body can be strengthened."
Su Ningan said: "Dad, I am strong, I want to do more."
Su Xingyi rubbed Su Ningan's chubby face and said, "We should go back and take a shower."
