Chapter 126: Completely Eliminate the Danger in the Cradle
“You can eat now.”
Zhou Yong picked up a potato chip for his young wife and put it in the bowl. Li Caiyun smiled, took a big bite, and hissed because it was hot.
“Blow on it before you eat.”
Li Caiyun responded incoherently, and Zhou Yong picked up a few potato chips and put them in her bowl.
"You're eating too?"
Zhou Yong didn't rush to eat, but cut some potato chips and placed them on the stove cover.
Seeing this, Li Caiyun picked up a potato chip and handed it to Zhou Yong's mouth. He looked at his young wife with a smile and opened his mouth.
The two of them ate potato chips one bite at a time, and Zhou Yong felt satisfied and at ease.
After finishing the potato chips, Li Caiyun smacked her lips, obviously not having eaten enough.
Zhou Yong pinched her round face and said, "Wait, I'll go get the potatoes."
Li Caiyun held Zhou Yong and said in a coquettish tone: "Eating too many potatoes will cause heartburn."
Zhou Yong looked down at his young wife and smiled softly, "Then let's bake something else to eat."
Li Caiyun sat in front of the stove with anticipation waiting for him to come back. After a while, Zhou Yong brought steamed buns into the house.
Zhou Yong cut the steamed buns into slices and placed them on the stove cover. He smiled and took a head of garlic into the house to roast.
“Can garlic be roasted?”
"Yes, you can try it later."
The garlic was roasted. Li Caiyun took a small bite and a very painful expression appeared on her face.
Zhou Yong smiled unkindly: "Not tasty?"
Li Caiyun smacked her lips: "I don't like this taste."
There aren’t many foods that can be roasted at home, otherwise Zhou Yong wouldn’t have thought of roasting garlic.
Zhou Yong finished all the roasted garlic, while Li Caiyun was full after eating only two slices of steamed bread.
The two of them sat in front of the stove for a while, and Li Caiyun got on the kang and mentioned from time to time that Miao Jinfeng and Liu Juan had come to visit.
Zhou Yong glanced at Li Caiyun who was beating around the bush and said, "You've said so much, what exactly do you want to express?"
He has never been interested in topics between women, which Li Caiyun knew well. But today, she talked about this and that and recounted the content of their conversation, and Zhou Yong couldn't help but feel puzzled.
Li Caiyun pursed her lips, looked at her man's face, and tentatively said, "I want to tell you that Zhou Gang and his wife want to divorce."
Zhou Yong frowned slightly when he heard this: "What does their divorce have to do with us?"
Li Caiyun sighed: "I don't mean anything else, I just want you to know about this, so that when others mention this, you won't know anything..."
Zhou Yong frowned, and instantly understood his wife's intention: "Then just say it directly, why are you beating around the bush?"
Li Caiyun curled her lips: "Aren't you afraid that you'll be angry?"
He's not that stingy, okay?
Besides, anyone in the Zhou family’s affairs has nothing to do with him.
Zhou Yong pinched his young wife's face, and Li Caiyun slapped his hand away: "Don't pinch my face all the time, it's become bigger because of you."
"Are you sure your face is bigger because of me? And not because you are fat?"
Li Caiyun froze and raised her hand to touch her chubby face: "Am I fat now?"
Zhou Yong knew that women were concerned about their body shape: "Not fat."
Li Caiyun curled her lips: "You are coaxing me again."
Zhou Yong held her hand and they looked into each other's eyes.
"You're really not fat. I was just joking with you."
Li Caiyun stared at Zhou Yong for a few seconds, her face full of expression. Her eyes were erratic and her tone was soft: "You only know how to say what I like to hear."
She said this, but she felt sweet in her heart.
Zhou Yong was amused by his young wife's shy demeanor and felt that Li Caiyun was becoming more and more adorable.
His laughter made Li Caiyun blush with shame. Zhou Yong stopped smiling and chatted with his young wife.
Li Caiyun especially likes chatting with Zhou Yong because every communication can give her profound inspiration.
Under Zhou Yong's guidance, Li Caiyun had a clear plan for the future, and her thinking also underwent earth-shaking changes.
She not only wants to be a good wife, a good mother and a good daughter, but also wants to move forward side by side with Zhou Yong.
Zhou Yong gave Li Caiyun enough respect and created a stage for her to showcase her talents. As long as she is willing, Zhou Yong will accompany her step by step towards success.
The young couple was talking excitedly when Guo Xiangqian came over with a smile on his face.
Zhou Yong looked at him and cursed in his heart.
"Brother Zhou, I have a question about work that I would like to ask you."
Zhou Yong kept smiling, and Guo Xiangqian did not treat himself as an outsider. He sat down and talked to him about work.
Li Caiyun silently brought the sewing basket to her side, listened to their conversation, and lowered her head to sew shoe soles.
Guo Xiangqian is definitely a positive person, but he has one bad point: he doesn't understand what a sense of boundaries is.
In fact, Zhou Yong was not familiar with him and had only met him a few times. Most importantly, they had only known each other for two days.
But Guo Xiangqian treated Zhou Yong as a friend. Whenever he encountered something he didn't understand, he would go directly to him for help without asking anyone else.
Zhou Yong patiently answered Guo Xiangqian's questions one by one, and Li Caiyun frowned slightly when she heard them.
After sending Guo Xiangqian away, Li Caiyun asked, "How come Secretary Guo doesn't know anything? How did the leader send someone like him here?"
Most of the questions Guo Xiangqian asked were very stupid, such as why every household could not get enough food, why every household was so poor, and so on.
If he had some experience in life, he would not ask such a stupid question.
Zhou Yong smiled and said, "Who knows? But don't offend him. After all, he is a village cadre sent by the county..."
Li Caiyun nodded continuously: "Don't worry, I won't offend him."
Now Li Caiyun only goes to the brigade occasionally to sort out the work account books. She doesn't go there normally. After the Chinese New Year, she gives birth before spring sowing, and she basically has no interaction with Guo Xiangqian.
Zhou Yong responded, his eyes gradually becoming dull as he fell into deep thought.
Li Caiyun looked at the expression on her man's face: "What are you thinking about?"
Zhou Yong was thinking about how to get along with Guo Xiangqian, whether to keep a distance or get closer to him.
"Nothing."
Li Caiyun didn't believe what he said, because whenever Zhou Yong showed this expression, he must be thinking about something in his mind!
She did not disturb Zhou Yong, but quietly sewed the soles of shoes. After a while, Zhou Yong raised his hand and pinched his eyebrows.
"You have a headache?"
Zhou Yong was indeed having a headache. He wanted to keep a distance from Guo Xiangqian, but he also didn't want to be too distant and cause trouble in the future. He understands that the choices in life are never perfect, so he must carefully consider how to move forward.
"I have a headache."
Li Caiyun quickly put the soles of the shoes into the sewing basket, let Zhou Yong lie down, and then gently massaged his forehead to soothe his discomfort.
Zhou Yong closed his eyes and asked solemnly, "Xiao Yun, imagine if there is a potential danger approaching you quietly, how would you respond?"
Li Caiyun was silent for a moment, then replied: "I will stay calm, observe and analyze the situation, and then make the most appropriate decision."
Zhou Yong nodded and asked, "What if this danger is unavoidable?"
Li Caiyun pondered for a moment, then said firmly: "I will do my best to completely eliminate the danger in the cradle."
