"Chengyuan, thank you for your hard work. You've been busy for so long tonight."
Let me give you a shoulder massage; Tangtang is asleep now.
Liu Sulan glanced at her sleeping daughter, then pulled her husband aside to sit down and spoke gently.
Tonight, the villagers brought a lot of lobsters over to be weighed.
Almost every household has them; the smallest catch is seven or eight pounds of crayfish, and the largest is dozens of pounds.
Almost the entire family came out to help, except for her, who was taking care of the child.
This afternoon, even my eldest sister and Chunyan went to catch crayfish. They worked together and each of them earned more than ten yuan.
The village chief helped maintain order and handle registration, while my parents helped with weighing the items. In short, no one in the family was idle.
"Okay, my wife still loves me the most."
Yu Chengyuan nodded and shook his arm.
"You work so hard, if I don't feel sorry for you, who else should I feel sorry for?"
Sit down and don't move around. I'll massage you for a while; it will make you feel better.
I learned a few tricks from my mom last time, so you can practice them.
After Liu Sulan finished speaking, she started pressing the buttons.
Does it hurt here?
"Ugh, it hurts..."
"Is my pressure enough? Should I increase it a bit?"
"You can press harder. Honey, go for it, I can handle it."
He's a grown man; he can handle that kind of strength.
"Then I'll increase the pressure a bit. I was afraid of hurting you at first, so I didn't dare to use too much force!"
Liu Sulan said this while increasing the pressure in her hands.
"It's alright, my dear wife, just use all your strength."
I'm not afraid of pain.
He has been experiencing some soreness in his shoulders, neck, and arms lately, and he suspects he may have developed some frozen shoulder.
I don't know how it happened. He hardly has any free time every day, so how did he manage to get this thing?
"Okay, does this... hurt?"
Yu Chengyuan let out a sharp cry, "This spot hurts a bit."
"Then let me massage this area for you more. Pain means blockage, and unblocking means no pain. Just bear with it, I'll massage it for you more."
Liu Sulan said this while pressing down with her own hands using yin energy.
"Honey, you know quite a lot. Did Mom teach you that?"
His mother couldn't do any of that, so that left his mother-in-law, who was a doctor.
"Yeah, that's what my mom taught me. I never thought I'd actually use it today."
Liu Sulan nodded.
"Honey, I'll definitely be busy during this time, but I'll certainly make a lot of money."
It will be about time when the rice is harvested in autumn.
When I make money, the first thing I'll do is go to the county town and buy a house.
That way, we can sometimes stay in the county town, and you and our parents can see each other more often.
They could stay with us for a while, what do you say?
Yu Chengyuan had his own plans.
"Great, that's wonderful."
This way, Tangtang will be closer to school in the county town, and I can find a suitable job so I can pick her up and drop her off at school.
Then during summer vacation, I sent Tangtang back to the village to stay with her grandparents for a while.
Liu Sulan felt that this arrangement was good, as it would not delay the child's development or affect the child's relationship with his/her grandparents.
Some children are not close to their maternal grandparents because they insist on being raised by their paternal grandparents.
She hopes her child will be close to both grandparents and maternal grandparents.
“What my wife is thinking is exactly what I’m thinking. If my eldest sister is fortunate enough to marry into the Jiang family, then you and my eldest sister can visit each other often.”
However, now that my older sister has moved to the county town, I don't know whether it's better for her to work there or start her own business; that's up to her own decision.
The couple had the same idea.
"Yeah, that way I won't be too bored. I'll have someone to go shopping with. We'll buy a house near the school when we go out."
It's conveniently located not far from the Jiang family's place and my parents' place, so we can look after each other.
Looking out at the bright moonlight, Liu Sulan dreamed of a bright future.
"Honey, I'm done. Don't press anymore, or your hand will get sore."
Yu Chengyuan pressed down on his wife's hand, making her stop.
"Chengyuan, my hand isn't sore, I can massage it a little longer."
Liu Sulan knew he was worried about her, but she also felt sorry for him.
My husband has been very busy lately, but no matter how busy he is, he still comes to play with our daughter every day and often brings her some delicious food.
Yu Chengyuan turned around and pulled his wife into his arms.
He raised his hand to tuck a stray strand of hair behind her ear, then gently kissed her eyes.
"Wife, be good, listen to me."
I feel much better now, it doesn't hurt anymore.
That's all for today. Could you give me another massage another day, okay?
Liu Sulan nodded, "Okay, I'll do whatever you say."
But why did you bring my old high school books with you?
You don't actually want me to go to university, do you?
Liu Sulan looked up for a moment and saw the textbooks on the table, and joked.
"As expected of my wife, she's so smart, she guessed it right away."
Yu Chengyuan pinched his wife's fair and rosy cheeks.
"Ah... no way, Chengyuan, are you serious?"
I was just saying it offhand, you really intend for me to take the college entrance exam?
Liu Sulan was very surprised. No wonder he brought back all her high school books for her!
At first, he thought it was some kind of magazine story or something!
To my surprise, they were all high school textbooks, and he even brought her her notebook back.
