The couple worked together. By the afternoon, they had sold all the couplets they had brought.
Gu Changzheng opened the kettle lid, poured half a cup of hot water for Lu Huaijiao, and had her sit on a stool to drink it.
He, on the other hand, quickly and efficiently cleaned up the mess.
As Lu Huaijiao watched his figure, a smile unconsciously appeared on her face.
Her husband was a bit rough around the edges, but he was still quite pleasing to the eye when he was working.
Those arms, that waist, those long legs, wow...
He looks like a man with inexhaustible strength!
"Honey, if you keep looking at me like that, I won't be able to do any work."
Gu Changzheng turned around and spoke to her with a rather helpless expression.
His expression contained helplessness, but even more so, an unyielding tenderness.
Even though he had his back to her, he could still keenly catch her gaze.
Lu Huaijiao clicked her tongue.
Although she felt it was legal to look at her man, she was still a little embarrassed to be caught in the act.
She coughed lightly, feigning composure, took a sip of water, pursed her lips, and looked away.
Gu Changzheng went back to work.
Lu Huaijiao was drinking water and idly watching the market when she suddenly saw a thief stealing an old lady's wallet.
Is this thief really that brazen?
Seeing that the old lady's small cloth bag was about to be taken by the thief, Lu Huaijiao, in a moment of panic, threw the water cup in her hand away.
With a loud crash, the water glass fell at the feet of the thief and the old man. The old man turned around and naturally saw the thief.
He also saw the cloth bag tied to his waistband, which was being caught in the thief's clips.
It looked like it was about to be squeezed away.
The old woman grabbed her cloth bag and turned around to beat the thief mercilessly.
"I'll teach you to be a bad person and to steal things."
The old woman hit and cursed him, but the thief could only cover his head with his hands and let her hit and curse him.
From the old lady's words, Lu Huaijiao realized that the thief was actually her grandson.
Is this... really that outrageous?
A grandson stealing money from his own grandmother on the street—if word got out, people would probably laugh their heads off.
Sure enough, the onlookers laughed quite a bit after hearing about their relationship.
The old woman grabbed her grandson, hitting and cursing him. When she heard others laughing at her grandson, she turned around and started cursing at the onlookers.
In short, you can scold your grandson yourself, but you absolutely cannot let others say a bad word about him.
Seeing the old lady fighting with her hands on her hips, Lu Huaijiao shook her head.
What kind of good children can be raised by elders like this? It seems incredibly lucky that they've raised a thief.
What if you're unlucky enough to raise a murderer?
Lu Huaijiao clicked her tongue, feeling a little sorry for the cup she had just thrown away.
Gu Changzheng had already tidied up. Seeing Lu Huaijiao shaking her head in regret, he smiled and walked over to pick up the cup that had fallen on the ground and gone unnoticed.
This cup is actually the lid of a kettle, but it was made into the shape of a cup for easier drinking.
When I got back, I didn't forget to rinse the cup with hot water from the kettle.
"Honey, are we home?"
"Um."
Lu Huaijiao agreed and went home with Gu Changzheng.
The young man, who was being protected by the old lady, looked up at Lu Huaijiao and the others, a flash of fierceness in his eyes.
Lu Huaijiao: ? ? ?
Is he holding a grudge against her?
Before she could speak, Gu Changzheng, who was fixing the bicycle in front, looked up and gave the young man a half-smile. Sensing his gaze, the young man defiantly glared even more fiercely.
Gu Changzheng clicked his tongue against his back teeth.
"Wife, let's go home."
"good."
Gu Changzheng rode his bicycle and left the market.
The young man broke free from his grandmother's grip on his arm and hurriedly chased after Gu Changzheng and the others in the direction they had left.
Gu Changzheng, who was riding his bicycle away normally, slowed down a bit.
This puzzled Lu Huaijiao.
Before she could ask, Gu Changzheng spoke up first: "Wife, let's go to the alley next door."
"Huh? Where are you going?"
"Kiss."
Gu Changzheng answered.
Lu Huaijiao: ...
If she hadn't noticed out of the corner of her eye that the number of people following their bicycles had increased from one to three, she might have believed Gu Changzheng's words.
However, according to Gu Changzheng's point that trouble shouldn't be brought home, they really should take a stroll through the alley.
Are you confident?
Knowing what he was going to do, Lu Huaijiao couldn't help but worry about him a little.
Although his wife's concern was a bit of an overreaction, Gu Changzheng still appreciated it very much.
"Don't worry, your man is very capable!"
"..."
She always thought he was very capable, so she stopped trying to put him down.
Otherwise, I'm afraid he'll lose confidence.
The bicycle turned into a small alley. The three young men who had been chasing them immediately gave chase. When they reached the alley, they found it empty. The bicycle that had just entered was nowhere to be seen.
"How is this possible? This is clearly a dead end."
The young man who had lost his way spat fiercely, refusing to believe that Lu Huaijiao and the others' bicycles had vanished into thin air.
