Chapter 115

Li Zhan looked at Xia Juanjuan with burning eyes, and said in a low and hoarse voice: "Wife..."

Xia Juanjuan looked at him strangely and said with a smile, "Why are you locking the door in broad daylight? Get out of the way. What if the kids come back and can't get in?"

As he said this, he pushed Lizhan aside and was about to open the door.

Lizhan was a little depressed. His wife was usually so smart, why was she so slow in this regard?

He suddenly picked up Xia Juanjuan and threw her onto the kang without saying a word.

"Ah!" Xia Juanjuan screamed: "You...what are you doing!"

Lizhan went up to her without waiting for her to get up, grabbed her two slender wrists and pressed them to her head, while struggling with the buttons on her clothes.

He leaned over and smiled in her ear: "We are husband and wife, what do you think?"

Xia Juanjuan reacted and forgot to struggle. She asked in astonishment: "But...you...you are not..."

Li Zhan had already taken off her cotton coat, and while he continued to deal with the underwear and bellyband underneath, he asked absentmindedly, "Nothing?"

"Isn't it... just... that one?"

Xia Juanjuan didn't know why she couldn't say it.

The story had spread like wildfire in the village, how could he have never heard of it?

Li Zhan's interest was also aroused. He stopped and looked up at Xia Juanjuan: "What is that? Speak clearly, why are you telling such a stupid story?"

Xia Juanjuan was angry.

She was embarrassed to say it out loud, wasn't it because she was afraid of hurting his pride as a man? How dare he yell at her?

"That's because he was injured and can't do that with his wife! He can't have children!" Xia Juanjuan said unhappily.

Li Zhan: "..."

Li Zhan: “………………”

Seeing that Li Zhan didn't say anything, Xia Juanjuan thought that his self-esteem was really hurt, and she couldn't help but regret why she had spoken so bluntly just now.

"You... well... don't be too sad. When medical technology becomes more advanced, maybe it can be cured."

As he spoke, he patted Lizhan's chest comfortingly.

Li Zhan: "..."

So his wife, she never doubted it at all? She always treated him as a disabled person?

Seeing that he still didn't speak, Xia Juanjuan panicked and carefully moved from under Li Zhan's body to the edge of the kang, while continuing to comfort him:

"You... you shouldn't be too upset. This is not a secret. The whole village... no, the whole commune knows about it. No one discriminates against you, right? I won't discriminate against you either! Well, I'll make you two bowls of chicken soup tonight to replenish your body..."

Li Zhan: "..."

Li Zhan looked at Xia Juanjuan with itchy teeth.

Is this how his wife comforts people? Does everyone in the commune know about it? We won't discriminate against you?

Drink a bowl of chicken soup to replenish his body? If he really is like that, can drinking chicken soup alone make him better?

When Xia Juanjuan slipped to the edge of the kang, Li Zhan easily pulled her back, suddenly pulled off her bellyband, leaned over and bit her earlobe as if punishing her, and smiled with his sharp white teeth: "Your man can't do that. That thing? I'll show you whether your man can do it..."

…

The days are short in winter. It gets dark around 5pm.

Xiaowen and Xiaowu finally ended their afternoon snowball fight with Secretary Zhao's grandsons Chaoyang and Qiming, and Beibei also went home hand in hand with Huanhuan and Yingying.

When they arrived at the door of their home, the three kids found that the door was not locked, but they could not push it open.

"Brother, is Mom not at home?" Beibei looked up and asked Xiaowen.

"You are so stupid! The door is locked from the inside and can't be pushed open. If mom is not at home, then who is at home?" Xiao Wu put his hands on his hips and corrected his sister.

Beibei pouted in dissatisfaction.

Xiaowen knocked on Xiaowu's head and said like a little adult: "Xiaowu, don't bully your sister. Mom should be sleeping in the room. Let's not make any noise. Let's sit at the door and wait for a while."

So, the three little kids sat in a row on the steps in front of the door, very neat and well-behaved.

Inside the house, Xia Juanjuan kicked Lizhan angrily and said in a low voice: "That's enough! The children are all back! If you sit outside again, you will get frozen..."

Li Zhan couldn't help but let out a "tsk" sound, then he whispered in her ear and laughed, "It's okay to let them freeze for a while, let me do it again..."

These past few days, he could only look at his wife but not eat. Isn't it all because of these three little bastards?

It's not easy to get what I wanted. One or two times is not enough. It won't be unfair to let them suffer in the cold for a while longer.

Xia Juanjuan: “…”

Xia Juanjuan: "Are you really my fourth uncle? Are you my vicious stepfather? Get out of here quickly, or I'll beat him up!"

Li Zhan sighed resentfully and was just about to get up when Zhou Qiuhe's voice suddenly came from outside the door.

"Xiao Wen, Xiao Wu, Bei Bei? Why are you sitting at the door instead of going in? It's so cold outside."

"Tsk!" The three little guys all raised their index fingers to their mouths, signaling Zhou Qiuhe to lower her voice.

Xiao Wen whispered, "Mom is sleeping in the room, please keep your voice down, Auntie!"

Beibei also lowered her voice and said in a baby voice: "Don't wake up Mom!"

Zhou Qiuhe was stunned for a moment, then couldn't help laughing: "You're quite filial, huh?"

But, sleeping with the door locked in broad daylight? It felt wrong.

"Where is your fourth uncle?"

"Fourth uncle went up the mountain to dig bamboo shoots."

Inside the house, Li Zhan sighed resentfully and was about to get up, but was suddenly held tightly by Xia Juanjuan, preventing him from getting up.

Li Zhan blinked and looked at her, then laughed softly, "Aren't you going to get up?"

Xia Juanjuan was so angry that she wanted to kick him again.

Just now, there were only three kids outside, so she could get away with it. But now Zhou Qiuhe was outside, and she and Li Zhan went out together in broad daylight with the door closed. Wasn't Zhou Qiuhe making fun of her again?

This bastard didn't do it on purpose, did he?

Lizhan smiled triumphantly again, leaned over and bit her lip, and whispered: "This is what you promised..."

Xia Juanjuan was depressed. What did she promise?

“Hmm…”

"Hush! Keep your voice down. Aren't you afraid people outside might hear you?"

Xia Juanjuan: “…”

This bastard!

Zhou Qiuhe heard the noise in the house and looked at the closed door suspiciously.

Then she said to the three kids, "You guys should go to Auntie's house first. It's so cold outside. Your faces are red from the cold..."

Having said that, he took the three kids home.

Lizhan boiled some water for Xia Juanjuan to clean.

Xia Juanjuan was very puzzled.

How did the rumor that he was not good at fighting get out?

Li Zhan glanced at her and said, "You are really stupid. You don't doubt the rumors you heard from others at all? Do I look like I have suffered such an injury?"

He looks like a man among men in every way!

Xia Juanjuan glanced at him and blushed, "Who said I didn't have doubts? But with a living person like me lying next to you, you didn't react at all. How could I not believe it?"

Li Zhan: "..."

But he was kind of happy.

"So you've actually been waiting for me... If I had known, I would have been more domineering a few days earlier..."

Xia Juanjuan's face was red as if it was about to bleed. She raised her hand to hit him and said unhappily, "Who, who has been waiting for this? Stop being so conceited!"

Li Zhan grabbed her hand and said with a smile: "Okay, okay! You haven't been looking forward to it. It's me who has been looking forward to it..."

When Li Zhan went to Zhou Qiuhe's house to pick up the three kids, they had already eaten.

Zhou Qiuhe asked with concern: "Is Juanjuan okay? I heard from the kids that she has been sleeping for the whole afternoon."

Li Zhan smiled and said, "Well, it's nothing, I'm just... a little tired, I just need to rest more."

Zhou Qiuhe became even more worried when she heard this: "Is everything really alright? How about I go check it out?"

Li Zhan quickly stopped her and said, "It's really nothing. Sister-in-law, if you go to see her, she will be embarrassed."

Zhou Qiuhe was stunned for a moment. She just wanted to take a look, why should she be embarrassed?

But I didn't go.

When the three little guys got home, they immediately ran to the kang and stood in a row, staring at Xia Juanjuan with worried eyes.

"Mom, your face is so red, are you sick?"

Xia Juanjuan glared at Lizhan, and despite the pain in her back, she sat up and said with a smile, "Mom is fine. Have you eaten? What did you eat?"

"I ate it! I ate the vermicelli and pork dumplings at Auntie's house."

Xia Juanjuan listened and nodded. It seemed that Zhou Qiuhe's family's food had improved.

After a while, Li Zhan came in with a bowl of hot chicken soup and said with a smile, "Come and drink some chicken soup to replenish your body."

The tender wild pheasant is served with wolfberry, wild mushrooms and freshly dug bamboo shoots. It is very delicious if sprinkled with a little salt.

Xia Juanjuan: “…”

Why did she want to throw the bowl at this bastard so badly?

Li Zhan, however, decided to stop while he was ahead and said with a smile, "It's hot. Let it cool down before drinking."

He then served a bowl to each of the three kids and himself. After they finished drinking, he let them wash up and go to bed before he went to bed.

This time he was not as restrained as before and he just domineeringly pulled the person into his arms.

Xia Juanjuan struggled but couldn't get away, so she couldn't help but whispered, "Let go, they might see us soon..."

Lizhan held her tighter, his chin resting on her neck, his warm breath blowing against her ear, making her struggle again.

"Don't move..." Li Zhansha said in a hoarse voice.

Xia Juanjuan was a little angry. Why should she listen to him?

Then he suddenly realized something and didn't dare to move.
