Cao Maizi coaxed her affectionately, saying, "Xueli, I know you're suffering, but we've seen doctors everywhere, and they all say he's not sick. We just don't know which deity we've offended. If we pray to the Dragon King and Dragon Queen on the first day of the lunar month, he'll surely be fine."
He chuckled and said, "Once he's better, you two can have a child. Your father and I are still young, so we can help you take care of the baby. You two can do business if you want, and all the money you make is yours. Your husband and I will just do our best to take care of you..."
What else could Su Xueli say? She swallowed the words that were about to come out and nodded silently.
The clothes I washed this afternoon have frozen again, so Su Xueli took them down from the line and hung them inside.
Upon entering the room, I found that Wei Mingshen hadn't gone out to play; he was sitting in bed sulking.
Su Xueli pretended not to see, hung her clothes on the bamboo pole one by one, then washed up, took out a bunch of snacks and put them on the quilt, took off her clothes and crawled into her own bed, picked up the book by her pillow and ate and read at the same time.
When they see something funny, they laugh out loud.
Wei Mingshen glared at her repeatedly, but she ignored him.
He couldn't hold back any longer, "You seem to be in a very good mood!"
Su Xueli, cracking sunflower seeds, said, "Hmm, why would I be in a bad mood when I have food and things to watch?"
Wei Mingshen's anger surged to his chest. He asked, "Can't you see I'm angry?"
Su Xueli spat the sunflower seed shells into the plate and said casually, "What can I do if you're angry?"
Wei Mingshen sat up straight and yelled at her, "I'm angry because you made me angry, as if it has nothing to do with you."
Su Xueli glanced at him, still ignoring him, and said, "I'm not angry with you."
Wei Mingshen couldn't contain his anger any longer. He snatched the book from her and looked at her, asking, "Su Xueli, we've been married for almost a month now. Tell me, where have I treated you badly?"
Su Xueli had no choice but to sit up straight and look him in the eye, saying, "Did I say you weren't good to me?"
"Then how can you be so heartless?"
How am I heartless?
"Did you just say that you couldn't wait any longer and wanted a divorce?"
"I already told you, aren't you in a hurry?"
"I... am not in a hurry."
Su Xueli stared at him, and he met her gaze openly.
"Aren't you even more anxious than I am?"
Wei Mingshen turned his neck to one side. "I'm not in a hurry now."
Su Xueli asked, "Why?"
Wei Mingshen said, "There's no reason why, I'm just not in a hurry anymore."
"But your Lin Meizhi is anxious."
Wei Mingshen's eyes darkened. "This is not something you should be concerned about."
Su Xueli said, "I'm curious. I've forcibly separated you two loving lovers. Aren't you in a hurry to kick me out and get together with your partner as soon as possible? Why aren't you in a hurry?"
Wei Mingshen himself didn't know what was wrong with him. The feeling of eagerly anticipating spending every day and night with Lin Meizhi had faded, and he began to waver. Was he really happy with Lin Meizhi?
"Mind your own business, what I do with her is none of your concern," he said irritably.
Su Xueli tilted her chin up: "Do you think I care about your affairs? I only care about when we're getting a divorce."
The topic has now circled back to the point, and Wei Mingshen asked again, "Why are you in such a hurry to divorce me?"
Su Xueli was amused by him, "Since we're going to separate sooner or later, why not separate sooner so we can each start our own new lives?"
