Chapter 29 What if something happens? How can I explain it to my parents-in-law?

Rong Jingchen saw Ye Muqi appear from a distance and was relieved at first. Fortunately, the person was not lost and he still remembered the way back. It seemed that he did not encounter any danger.

"Where have you been?" Rong Jingchen then walked up quickly and asked seriously.

“…”

Being stared at like this by Rong Jingchen, Ye Muqi suddenly felt like a stern old father disciplining his rebellious daughter, and couldn't help but shrink his neck.

Rong Jingchen's eyes were fierce, and contained a hint of anger. Ye Muqi swallowed her saliva. She had just said, "My man is so handsome," but now she was saying, "This man is so fucking fierce!"

"I went for a walk in the city." Ye Muqi whispered, "and bought some things."

"You went alone?" Rong Jingchen looked at the things in her hands. "You just arrived and you are not familiar with this place. Don't run around."

Although Rong Jingchen still looked serious and fierce, his tone was slightly softened.

It was obvious that he was really worried.

"If something happens to you..." Rong Jingchen paused and spoke in a lower voice, "How am I going to explain it to my parents-in-law?"

Ye Muqi secretly glanced at Rong Jingchen and felt scolded, but she had an inexplicable sense of déjà vu of an old father disciplining his daughter.

And she found that Rong Jingchen's expression was a little awkward.

In the other world, no matter whether Rong Jingchen did it because of her parents, she was not so ignorant to have someone who cared about her and waited for her at the door at night.

What's more, he is a handsome guy, she can't get angry at him.

Although Ye Muqi wanted to say that she was not a child anymore and would not get lost if she went out for a walk alone, after all, she had a mouth to ask for directions. However, seeing the genuine concern in Rong Jingchen's eyes and the family compound behind her, she did not say it out loud.

She almost forgot that this was the 1980s, when people had mobile phones, could make phone calls, send WeChat messages, and contact each other anytime and anywhere.

She ran to the city without telling Rong Jingchen in advance. One can imagine how anxious Rong Jingchen would be when he came back and couldn't find her.

"I'm sorry, I will tell you this next time I go out." Ye Muqi apologized decisively, adhering to the principle of correcting mistakes.

Seeing that Rong Jingchen wanted to say something, Ye Muqi took a step forward and tried to coax him.

"I went to the city and bought a lot of food today. I'll go back and make you a delicious meal later." Ye Muqi smiled and waved the things in her hand at Rong Jingchen.

There were a lot of things, and both her hands were full. Some were bought in the city, and some were taken out from the space after she got off the bus. She thought it would be less likely to arouse suspicion if she brought them home like this.

Since the young wife had shown weakness, Rong Jingchen had no choice but to give up. Seeing Ye Muqi's hands full of bags, he naturally reached out to take them.

There were both meat and vegetables in the various plastic bags. Not only meat, but there was even a fish. You could feel the richness of the food just by looking at it.

"Let's go home." Ye Muqi gave all the things to Rong Jingchen. He felt happy unconsciously because he had nothing in his hands.

Although the stuff wasn't heavy, it was still tiring carrying it all the way back and walking around for so long.

"Yeah." Rong Jingchen turned his head and glanced at Ye Muqi. Ye Muqi was very fair, and under the dim light, she looked particularly beautiful when she smiled, as if she had a layer of soft light filter.

"Is it fun in the city?" Rong Jingchen couldn't describe his feeling, but suddenly, his mood calmed down.

"It's fun." Ye Muqi nodded, still excited, and generously shared with Rong Jingchen: "There are a lot of people on the street, and there are a lot of people selling things. It's completely different from where we live. I even saw some street vendors today."

As Ye Muqi was talking, Rong Jingchen was listening quietly beside him, holding the things Ye Muqi had bought in his hands. Anyone who saw them would think that these two were very loving.

"Really?"

It seems that my young wife is quite good at finding fun for herself.

…

After returning home, Ye Muqi went to the kitchen with the dishes he brought back. There was a small bag on the table, which didn't look like food.

Rong Jingchen walked forward and took a look. At first glance, they were some small accessories that girls would like. He looked at Ye Muqi who was busy in the kitchen, and then looked at the small accessories carefully. He was about to go watch his wife cook, but was chased out.

Rong Jingchen: “…”

I felt my young wife's malice towards me!

Ye Muqi cooks very quickly, and soon there are several dishes on the table, both meat and vegetarian, that are delicious and tasty.

"It's time for dinner." Ye Muqi shouted, and Rong Jingchen went into the kitchen and came out with two bowls of rice, followed by Ye Muqi with two pairs of chopsticks in his hands.

Rong Jingchen ate the meal made by Ye Muqi and nodded in his heart. Sure enough, the taste was right. The meal Ye Muqi cooked was indeed much better than the one in the army cafeteria.

"I seem to have forgotten to ask you what kind of food you like to eat." Ye Muqi looked at the man and asked.

She had asked Yin Lan this question before at Rong's house. Since they would be living under the same roof from now on, Ye Muqi felt that she should also understand Rong Jingchen's preferences.

"There's nothing I don't eat." Rong Jingchen thought for a moment and shook his head.

In the army, he was used to eating whatever was available. He didn't have any particular favorites. Everything tasted the same and filled his stomach.

"Oh." That means not picky!

Ye Muqi nodded and thought it was a good idea. From now on, she could just follow her own preferences and just make whatever she wanted to eat.

Well, not bad!

"By the way, I went to the city today and met an old lady who ran a breakfast shop. I made an appointment with her to help out in her shop and will go to work early tomorrow morning." Ye Muqi felt that he should tell him about finding a job.

She would have to go to the city every day from now on, and it was hard to say when she would come back. After what happened today, Ye Muqi told Rong Jingchen directly. After all, she didn't want to keep it secret at the beginning.

"Ahem..." Rong Jingchen was choked by the rice, "Are you going to work tomorrow?"

Rong Jingchen was a little surprised. He never thought that he had found a job on his own on the first day, and in Beijing, a place where he was unfamiliar with.

It seemed that Ye Muqi was not as incapable of living as he had imagined.

However, thinking about the worries he had in the army today, Rong Jingchen felt that it was a good thing for the little girl to have something to do. Otherwise, it would be too boring to stay in this family compound every day, with no one around her to know and talk to.

The point is, he doesn't have to worry about Ye Muqi causing trouble in the family compound.

"Do you have any money on you?" As he said this, Rong Jingchen was about to put down the bowl in his hand and go to get money for Ye Muqi.

His monthly salary was more than 80 yuan. He would transfer it back every month, giving 50 yuan to Yin Lan and 20 yuan to the Ye family, leaving 10 yuan for himself for living expenses. After all, he was in the army and had no bad habits. It was just that he had not received his salary yet, so he didn't have much left.

Rong Jingchen gave all to Ye Muqi. Now that Ye Muqi was the mistress of the family, it was only natural for her to hand over her wages.

"Yes, I haven't spent the money you gave me every month." Ye Muqi hurriedly grabbed Rong Jingchen.

She really had no shortage of money and could earn it on her own. What Rong Jingchen gave her was already enough and Ye Muqi didn't plan to ask for more.

Besides, she is an independent woman in the new century. How can she always rely on her husband for support?

It’s not a problem for her to support her husband!
