Chapter 75 Find an Excuse to Stay
Bai Yangfan stood up and prepared to clean up the dishes and glared at the dog man, his tone colder than the snowflakes floating outside the house.
"Lu Jingheng! You better understand this. I, Bai Yangfan, am not your babysitter. Go around Liujia Village and ask around. Whoever wants you to live with them? I don't want to. I just want to live peacefully with my brother. Just giving you this meal is enough. You still want more? Do you think I, Bai Yangfan, am someone who can be bullied?"
Lu Jingheng snatched the chopsticks and empty bowl from the woman's hand and quickly put them into the pot in the kitchen. Then he took a rag to wipe the table, bargaining with Bai Yangfan while wiping.
"I don't eat for free, I work. From now on, you will be responsible for cooking, and I will be responsible for washing vegetables, sweeping the floor, washing dishes, and wiping the table. Yangfan! Just consider it a good deed and don't let me cook for myself. My cooking is really disgusting. If I weren't so hungry that I had no choice but to eat, to be honest, I would even dislike the food I cook.
It's settled. From now on, when I come to your house for dinner, I'll eat whatever you cook. I'm not picky. As long as there's something to eat, I'll be fine. All the firewood, water, and other things in the house are mine."
Bai Qihang sat on the stool and watched Lu Jingheng working efficiently. He couldn't help but laugh and quietly leaned close to Bai Yangfan's ear.
"Sister! Just give him a chance. He's doing a good job, so let him do it. Didn't you say it's cold and you hate washing dishes? Just let him do it."
Lu Jingheng has very good hearing, even though Bai Qihang spoke very quietly, he still heard it.
He secretly gave his brother-in-law a thumbs up and winked at him, his gratitude obvious.
With this little helper, he wasn't afraid that Bai Yangfan wouldn't agree. Today, he found another weakness of hers. Since it involved her brother-in-law, even if the woman was reluctant, she would reluctantly agree.
From then on, as long as he could curry favor with his brother-in-law, he would be able to enter the house and live a legitimate life with Bai Yangfan.
If it is really possible, he will definitely cherish this hard-earned happiness.
His daughter-in-law must never be allowed to suffer any injustice again.
Hearing her words "It's too late, it's too late, my heart is dead", he seemed to hear the sound of his own heart breaking. No matter what, he couldn't let her feel that it was too late.
It’s not too late for them, even if they wait another ten or twenty years, it’s still not too late.
He must use his passion and love to warm her heart bit by bit and bring that dead heart back to life.
It all started with the New Year’s Eve dinner we had today.
Bai Yangfan watched the man clumsily washing dishes and sweeping the floor, but she didn't stop him. After all, he had eaten her meal, so he should do some work.
To be honest, Bai Yangfan hated housework. In her previous life, besides training her survival skills, she was always thinking about completing tasks. Her favorite housework was probably cooking. As for organizing and washing up after cooking, she really hated it.
It's Chinese New Year today, so it's nice to have some help.
As for the bastard's idea of coming to her house for a free meal, she would definitely not agree.
I would rather wash the dishes myself than have too much involvement with him.
After all, he was a soldier, and although her organization in her previous life was overseas, it was a dark organization. When she saw the regular army, she felt insecure.
In this life, she is not Bai Fan but Bai Yangfan, and she still cannot get rid of the emptiness in her heart.
Feeling empty and without confidence.
After tidying up the house, Lu Jingheng took Qihang out and took him to set off firecrackers.
Bai Yangfan sat at home alone to celebrate the New Year.
When she has nothing to do, she reads books, including high school math, physics and chemistry books. There are no other books at home except these books.
There's nothing to do if I don't watch it.
Qihang was sent back around ten o'clock in the evening. His little face was full of excitement and he kept chattering to Bai Yangfan about how Lu Jingheng taught him to set off firecrackers.
Looking at the smug man on the side, Bai Yangfan really wanted to slap him.
Why did she steal her brother's attention?
What are you planning to do? Are you planning to take over other people's business?
The person who originally had a slightly raised mouth corner immediately put away the smile on his face after receiving a cold look and sat down quietly aside.
He grabbed a handful of melon seeds from the table and peeled them one by one.
He lowered his head, not daring to look at the woman who was listening to his brother with a gentle face.
She smiled sweetly and kindly to her four-year-old brother-in-law, but became cold-hearted towards him and looked at him with icy eyes.
Lu Jingheng felt so pitiful. His wife didn't care about his feelings or his mood at all.
He wasn't even given a chance to be nice to her.
But it doesn't matter, he can create opportunities.
Seeing that there were a lot of melon seed shells around her, he knew his wife must like to eat melon seeds, so he peeled them for her. As long as she said she wanted to eat them, he would peel them for her for the rest of her life.
Qihang, who was tired from playing, finished a long and happy conversation and then leaned on Bai Yangfan without moving. It was obvious that he wanted to sleep.
But today they have to stay up all night to celebrate the New Year, and he can't sleep alone. Bai Yangfan reached out and picked him up, letting him sit on his lap.
"Set sail! Tired, huh?"
"Hmm!" He yawned with his eyes closed. "I feel sleepy."
"Then go to sleep." Bai Yangfan coaxed him, patting his back gently.
Qihang raised his misty eyes and said, "I'm asleep. Who will stay up with me?"
"Me!" Lu Jingheng glanced at Bai Qihang while concentrating on peeling melon seeds. "Go to sleep if you want. I'll stay up with your sister."
"oh!"
Bai Qihang seemed to be relieved. He leaned his head in Bai Yangfan's arms, closed his eyes and fell asleep.
Putting the peeled melon seeds into a small wine glass, Lu Jingheng looked at Bai Yangfan and said, "Qihang has fallen asleep. Put him on the bed. You might catch a cold if you hold him like this."
Glancing at his younger brother lying in his arms, Bai Yangfan said calmly, "It's New Year's Eve tonight, and I don't want him to sleep alone. I want to take him to sleep with me."
"That won't do." Lu Jingheng yelled without thinking. Then, noticing the displeasure on Bai Yangfan's face, he explained awkwardly, "Qihang is a boy after all, and he's five years old. It's not appropriate for him to sleep with you."
"What's wrong with my own brother?" Bai Yangfan glared at the dog man and didn't care. "He's just a child. He's unlucky and his mother is gone. If he had a better life, he would still be acting like a spoiled child beside his mother at this time."
Afraid that the woman would get really angry and chase him away, Lu Jingheng slowed down his tone, "I know, don't get excited. What I mean is that you are just Qihang's sister, not his mother, so it's not appropriate for you to sleep with him. How about this! I'll stay up with you tonight, and after midnight, I'll take him to bed."
Anyway, he had no plans to go back to the educated youth site tonight, so it was just the right excuse to stay.
I was just racking my brains to come up with something, and now I have a ready-made one. That’s great.
