Xu Nian and Shen Chaoxi's lives didn't change much after they got married; they were the same as before they got married.
He was responsible for earning money to support the family, while she was responsible for eating melons at home.
Xu Nian wasn't just lying around; this was the best time to make money.
Industries like catering, retail, education and training, and real estate—as long as you seize the opportunity and have money to invest, you can make money effortlessly.
Another way to make money quickly is through the stock market, but this is more challenging as some people make a fortune while others lose everything.
Xu Nian threw the money in her hand into the pool, and after it rolled around a few times, she stopped in time.
Next, she plans to use the money she has to start a business and buy a house.
Having made up her mind, Xu Nian took Shen Chaoxi to Beijing and used all of her tens of thousands of yuan to buy a house.
Shen Chaoxi watched as Xu Nian spent all the money, but he only smiled indulgently and didn't ask any questions.
Having bought ten houses, Xu Nian had her major concern resolved and then asked Shen Chaoxi, a local, to arrange the rest of the trip.
Since they were in Beijing, they were bound to visit Shen's parents, so Shen Chaoxi called ahead to let them know.
He took Xu Nian home the next day.
The two elders were both very open-minded people, and when they saw Shen Chaoxi bring Xu Nian back, they were both overjoyed.
While placing the gifts, Mother Shen pulled Shen Chaoxi aside for a few words, and then immediately instructed the kitchen to prepare lunch.
When it was time for dinner, Shen Chaoxi's eldest and second eldest brothers also returned.
My eldest brother is a doctor who returned from studying abroad, and my second brother is a former soldier.
Compared to him, Shen Chaoxi paled in comparison.
No wonder her family didn't object to him marrying into her family; it turns out someone in the family had already made something of himself.
His youngest son does whatever makes him happy.
In their view, as long as Shen Chaoxi doesn't violate principles or break the law, it's fine as long as he lives happily.
Xu Nian didn't see her eldest and second sisters-in-law, so she guessed that Brother Shen and Brother Shen were not married yet.
Didn't you see that Shen Chaoxi's lips were curled up high? While talking to his two older brothers, he didn't forget to keep an eye on Xu Nian from time to time, pouring her tea and peeling fruit for her.
Overtly, it's about spoiling her; covertly, it's about showing off.
"Third brother, how long are you planning to stay this time?" Brother Shen couldn't bear to look any longer, so he had to talk to divert attention.
Upon hearing this, Shen Chaoxi quickly turned to Xu Nian and asked, "Wife, when are we going home?"
"It's up to you. You can stay as long as you want." Xu Nian passed the buck back to this fool. Doesn't he feel embarrassed asking her like that in front of his older brother?
“Then we’ll leave tomorrow.” Shen Chaoxi’s words surprised Xu Nian.
No, you just got home today and are leaving tomorrow, so you're staying in a hotel for one night!
Unlike Xu Nian's surprise, Brother Shen and Second Brother Shen laughed and pretended to persuade her to stay, saying, "So soon? Why don't you stay with your sister-in-law for a few more days?"
"No, it's such a hassle to have a few extra people around in our otherwise peaceful time together. You wouldn't understand." Shen Chaoxi's distressed expression made everyone present want to kick him a few times.
If Xu Nian hadn't been there, to avoid making a fool of themselves, Brother Shen and Second Brother Shen would have already personally greeted Shen Chaoxi.
After being exchanged barbs with his two older brothers, Shen Chaoxi laughed with pleasure.
Let them enjoy putting on airs in front of him before; now it's his turn.
He has a wife, they don't, so what?
He gave his two older brothers a provocative smile, and when he heard his mother call for dinner, he immediately took Xu Nian's hand and went to eat.
Their eagerness to escape was so palpable that it made Brother Shen and Brother Shen's second brother laugh.
To Xu Nian's surprise, several of the dishes on the table were her favorites.
She was immediately moved and looked at Shen's mother and Shen Chaoxi's family. Needless to say, this was all prepared for her, in case she was not used to the local tastes.
"Daughter-in-law, don't just look at it, try it and see if it suits your taste." Although Mother Shen had confidence in the family's chef, she still hoped that Xu Nian would like the dishes on the table.
"Mom, these dishes are so delicious, I love them all." Xu Nian thought the garlic shrimp, steamed fish, and other dishes were all just right.
The Shen family was relieved to see that Xu Nian was enjoying her meal.
After dinner, Chen's mother took Xu Nian to her room for a chat. Unsurprisingly, Xu Nian received a large red envelope and a set of gold jewelry.
Mother Shen said to Xu Nian with affection, "Daughter-in-law, my third son is a good person. He is honest and reliable. If you don't like his little flaws, don't indulge him. If he doesn't change, call me and I will teach him a lesson for you."
"Mom, you're exaggerating. Shen Chaoxi is a good person, better than anyone else." A shy blush appeared on Xu Nian's pretty face, clearly indicating that she wasn't very good at praising people.
Mother Shen smiled with satisfaction; she knew her son very well.
She said her son was no good, but in her heart, he was a very good son.
She had previously worried that her son would be bullied if he became a live-in son-in-law, but now it seems she was overthinking it.
This girl is so delicate and gentle; how could she possibly bully her own son?
Now she's a little worried that her son might bully the girl.
She speaks softly and gently, and her kind and gentle demeanor suggests a good temper.
No, I have to warn that brat. A wife is meant to be cherished, not bullied.
Mother Shen smiled even more kindly at Xu Nian, and chatted with her for a long time until Shen Chaoxi came looking for someone, at which point Mother Shen let Xu Nian go.
That night, the two slept in Shen Chaoxi's old room.
Hearing his father snoring next door, he hugged Xu Nian tightly and kissed her repeatedly with a sullen expression.
"It's just one night, is it really that big of a deal?" Xu Nian pinched his cheek speechlessly. He looked like a wronged husband, as if he had been abandoned by someone!
"Wife, we'll go back tomorrow morning," Shen Chaoxi said, biting Xu Nian's ear.
"We rarely come here, so I'd like to stay for a few days," Xu Nian teased with a smile.
"No, leave tomorrow, or I'll... " Shen Chaoxi bit Xu Nian's finger viciously, then threatened her with his eyes.
"Shen Chaoxi, you need to really clean your head," Xu Nian said, twitching her lips.
She had never met anyone like him; all he thought about every day was her.
"Wife, you don't love me anymore." Shen Chaoxi's expression was dejected, and even her voice carried a hint of sadness.
"Shen Chaoxi, what kind of trouble are you trying to cause now?" Xu Nian asked in pain.
Having been together for so long, she knew his little schemes inside and out. The moment she saw his expression change, she knew something was wrong.
"Wife, in your heart, am I really that kind of person?" Shen Chaoxi asked, her voice trembling with grievance.
"..." Don't you know what kind of person you are?
Seeing that Shen Chaoxi was about to be abandoned by the person she loved, Xu Nian had no choice but to take the initiative and kiss him.
