Chapter 21 My Wife Loves Me So Much!
He Chuan's gaze only briefly fell on Yu Zhouwan before turning back to Chi Zhao.
He couldn't help but feel nervous when facing his beloved, his eyes revealing a gentle warmth as he softly said, "Sister Chi."
Chi Zhao had initially found her boyfriend adorable, but when she suddenly heard He Chuan call her name, her face immediately fell. She didn't even bother to look at him, and even tightened the fence around her neck. "Don't call me. I'm not related to you, I'm not your sister."
He Chuan bit his lip, looking somewhat aggrieved. "Just because I accidentally pushed Chi Fulang, is this how Sister Chi treats me? I offered to apologize that day, but she refused. What more do you want from me? We're from the same village. Does Sister Chi really disrespect my mother like this?"
Most people in the village would give face to his mother, but it's different for Chi Zhao, who doesn't even know his mother.
Hearing this, she naturally ignored him completely. "Just because you apologize, does that mean others have to accept it? Does that mean I have to give face to your mother? If you had any manners at all, you should avoid my husband next time you see him."
Chi Zhao's words were full of protection for her husband, and He Chuan's heart pounded even harder.
She was truly devoted to her lover.
I wish I were the man she protected like that.
He was filled with jealousy and hatred, his cold eyes fixed on Yu Zhouwan.
Yu Zhouwan was overjoyed, protected by his wife.
Noticing that the other person was looking at him, he glared back without any politeness. With his hands on his hips, he acted recklessly, relying on his wife's favor. It was rare for him to dare to argue with someone. "My wife only likes me. Don't even think about seducing my wife!"
Chi Zhao smiled and patted her boyfriend's head. "Yes, I only like you."
She accepted that.
He Chuan felt a pang of envy and bitterness. He pursed his lips, stared at the other person for a while, and only asked when the other person frowned and rolled up his sleeves, "Why? I'm no worse than him."
Hearing that he really intended to seduce his wife, Yu Zhouwan's eyes widened in shock. She quickly realized what he meant and hurriedly turned around to grab her wife's arm, her expression extremely anxious. "What are you saying? My wife loves me! She loves me no matter what!"
"My lady, my lady, say something!"
The last syllable of his voice was drawn out, and he shook her hand in a coquettish manner.
Chi Zhao thought to herself, "That's not it. If I become ugly, I definitely won't like it anymore."
But she still coaxed her boyfriend, saying, "Of course, of course I like you."
So the young husband, like a victorious rooster, became even more smug. "Did you hear that? My wife loves me. I will do her laundry, cook for her, and serve her. As for you, I've heard that you never cook at home and only want to pester women all day. As a man, I am naturally much more qualified than you! Moreover, my wife likes me more. What do you have to compare with me?"
Yu Zhouwan was actually quite uneasy. Of course, he knew that in terms of status, a normal person would choose He Chuan. He was just a slave who had been sold, without any mother or father to support him. But, but... his wife said she liked him.
He must firmly uphold his identity as Chi Zhaofu's husband and not be separated from his wife.
What would he do if this shameless man stole her away? A man's life is like a drifting duckweed, his heart and soul belong to his wife. Without his wife...
Yu Zhouwan grew increasingly frightened as she thought about it, her dark eyes suddenly becoming watery. She couldn't let him steal her wife away.
The boy looked pitiful with tears in his eyes. Although Chi Zhao didn't know why he was crying again, he still blamed He Chuan and warned him that if he didn't leave, he would tie him up and take him to his mother.
What kind of person is so clueless about romance that they would say something like tying up a handsome man?
He Chuan was trembling with anger, but he dared not test the truth of her words. If he were really taken back, he would be ruined. The gossip in the village could kill him.
...
After watching his wife drive the man away, Yu Zhouwan finally breathed a sigh of relief and obediently clung to his wife's arms.
Chi Zhao helplessly tapped her forehead with one finger and chuckled, "You're such an idiot, everyone can bully you."
She was standing right there protecting her boyfriend, sweet-talking him, yet he was still being bullied to the point of tears.
What else could he be but an idiot?
Fortunately, she accepted the task; otherwise, I can't even imagine how much hardship and injustice Yanzhou would have suffered.
In the novel, he... had no one to protect him.
Chi Zhao touched her boyfriend's handsome and pretty face with a touch of pity.
Yu Zhouwan's thick, long eyelashes trembled slightly. She bit her lip, still looking at her as if she had been bullied, "My lady~"
Chi Zhaoying replied casually, "Hmm?"
He was grabbed tightly by the hem of his sleeve, and he almost threw himself into her arms, pleading and fussing, "My lady, my lady, please don't pay any attention to He Chuan anymore, okay? He... he has bad intentions!"
Chi Zhao slowly picked up a strand of her husband's long, dark hair from behind and nodded, "Okay."
She hadn't planned to have much contact with He Chuan anyway, without her husband saying so.
Seeing that she agreed so easily, Yu Zhouwan's eyes sparkled, and she smiled sweetly and foolishly, "My wife is so good."
"Yes, I am your wife, so naturally I will treat you better."
"Aren't you going out with your friend today?"
"Yes, yes, I want to stay with my wife. My wife is bad. Xiao He asks me to go out, but my wife never asks me to stay."
The boy grumbled and leaned against his wife's chest, somewhat dissatisfied.
As Chi Zhao led him into the house, she looked at him with confusion, saying, "Your friend asked you to hang out, so why should I keep you here? If you don't want to, then refuse him."
To everyone's surprise, Yanzhou seemed to have been spoiled by her. He puffed out his cheeks and sulked, saying something completely unreasonable: "I want my wife to keep me here. My wife must find me annoying and doesn't want me to stay at home, that's why she won't keep me. She'd love for me to go out with Xiaohe every day."
Chi Zhao paused, then suddenly smiled. She wasn't angry at all. Yan Zhou's temperament, which had been spoiled, was becoming more and more like his old self. He would always get jealous for no reason, then throw a little tantrum, waiting for her to coax him. When she was in a good mood, she would coax him, and Yan Zhou would be very happy. If she was in a bad mood and let him do as he pleased, Yan Zhou would be like a moldy little mushroom, squatting in a corner looking at her pitifully and aggrievedly. In the end, he would coax himself and then obediently come to her and try to please her gently and tenderly.
Hehe, cute.
The wife smiled!
Yu Zhouwan was even more dissatisfied, and with her soft body she tried to bury herself in her wife's arms, "Hmph, my wife is making fun of me, how mean."
Chi Zhao turned her head away and denied it, "I'm not making fun of you, don't talk nonsense."
She put one arm around her husband, slid it over his shoulder, and gently rubbed his cheek.
It's white and soft.
"That's just a joke, you're always bullying me."
He was almost crying from being bullied just now, and he didn't say anything. She's been so good to him, and he actually turned around and accused her of bullying him.
Chi Zhao plopped down on the bed, and the one who had accused her of bullying her immediately followed, his eyes filled with resentment, and deliberately sat on her lap.
He hugged her, looking pitiful and wronged.
cute.
"Isn't a husband just someone you bully?"
Chi Zhao, worried that her boyfriend might fall, gently put her arm around his waist and teased him.
Yu Zhouwan glared at him angrily, very dissatisfied, "Last time you said that a husband is meant to be cherished!"
Women's words are really unreliable, sob sob sob, I've been fooled by my wife again.
The boy, with tears in his eyes, buried his head in someone's arms and ignored her.
Chi Zhao rubbed the delicate bottom in his palm, and the body in his arms stiffened. She hummed and whimpered twice, ignoring her completely.
"Xiao Zhou has such a strong temper."
"Who gave you the right to bully people?"
He didn't like being bullied by his wife at all; all he wanted was to be loved by her.
Chi Zhao didn't take it seriously at first, thinking it was just a child throwing a tantrum, until her thin summer shirt got wet in one spot, and she stopped leisurely looking out the window at the scenery.
?
Unable to believe it, she pinched his smooth chin and lifted his face, and sure enough, she saw Yu Zhouwan with tears streaming down his face, looking extremely pitiful.
Chi Zhao:......
"It's such a small thing, is it worth crying to me about?"
She didn't quite understand, and with a slight frown, she raised her hand to wipe away his tears.
Yu Zhouwan was a little sad. She glared at her with red eyes, broke free from her hand, and buried her head in her arms again.
Because the host has been working hard on tasks lately and has been getting sweet moments, the system hasn't spoken for a long time. Today, seeing that even the male supporting character was made to cry, it finally couldn't stand it anymore and rushed out, its light blue glowing wings almost slapping people's faces. The system was extremely angry!
Why did you deliberately make Xiaozhou cry!
It saw it clearly; the host was bullying people!
Chi Zhao hadn't expected Xiao Zhou to be so easily teased. Seeing him cry made her feel a little regretful, but why was the system scolding her? A non-human creature beyond the imagination of ordinary people, who had no ability other than saying "so sweet, so sweet" every day, couldn't change money, and stopped her from teaching a lesson to those who bullied her husband. What a useless piece of trash.
Go eat your candy.
Because the other person kept saying how sweet and romantic it was, Chi Zhao also learned to just enjoy the sweet moments when she had nothing else to do, and not to meddle in things she shouldn't.
The little bee's face turned red with anger. Where was the sugar? It couldn't see it; it was all shards of glass!
It wants candy!
Seeing that Chi Zhao's eyes, each the size of a mung bean, were practically spitting fire, he raised his hand and slapped it away, sending it flying out of the window with a whoosh.
When they first met, the system was acting cute while she did her tasks. Now that they've spent more time together, its true nature has been revealed. It keeps asking for sweets every day. Come on, there's no such thing as sweets in real life. You neurotic system.
Once the annoying noises subsided, Chi Zhao began to continue coaxing her boyfriend.
It's okay to make a joke or tease someone a little, but it's not good to make them cry.
She didn't realize that seeing her boyfriend cry made her feel a pang of heartache.
Yu Zhouwan was pulled out of someone's arms.
Her eyes were still red and teary, truly making one feel... pity for her.
Chi Zhao stopped him from struggling and raised her hand to wipe away his tears.
In truth, he dared not break free again. He had acted recklessly just now, relying on his wife's recent favor, but now that he had calmed down, he dared not do it again.
He pursed his lips and turned his head away from his wife.
Silently and stubbornly expressing her unhappiness.
"You're so sad."
They cried until they looked like little kittens.
Yu Zhouwan bit her thin lips, and after a long while, she said in a slightly choked voice, "You can't, you can't bully me. Everyone else bullies me, but, but you can't bully me..."
He had nothing left but his wife.
As Chi Zhao listened, something seemed amiss. Her delicate brows furrowed, and she wrapped her arm around her boyfriend's slender waist, asking, "Did someone in the village bully you?"
Yu Zhouwan pouted, looking aggrieved, but still shook her head and said no.
Someone gently pinched the soft flesh on her cheek and said, "Be good, tell the truth, you are my husband. Even when beating a dog, you have to consider its owner. If anyone dares to bully you, they don't respect me either."
Thinking that her boyfriend had been secretly bullied again, Chi Zhao felt both disappointed and angry.
The person in his arms was still sniffling and muttering, "I'm not a dog, you're insulting me again, can you please stop insulting me?"
He couldn't bear being treated coldly by those closest to him.
Chi Zhao was speechless for a moment, and fearing that he would make her cry again, she could only nod helplessly, "Yes, I was just using a metaphor, I wasn't really scolding you."
Then she quickly changed the subject, "Okay, I'm asking you, who bullied you? If you don't tell me, I'm going to ask your friend."
During the time Yanzhou has been here, Xiaohe is her only friend. If she needs to ask something, she naturally knows who to ask.
Yu Zhouwan was extremely jealous and didn't like his wife talking to any man other than himself. He knew it was wrong, but he just couldn't change it.
Upon hearing this, he immediately raised his eyes and glared at his wife, then nestled into her arms with a wronged expression.
He whispered, trying to stop her, "You're not allowed to go see anyone else, you have to stay with me."
...Where have we gotten to this point? My thoughts are jumping around so much.
It was evening, and the scenery outside was bathed in the golden hues of the setting sun.
Chi Zhao simply picked up the person in his arms and carried them horizontally. He originally wanted to go back to the room to do something important, but he accidentally made the person cry before he could do so, so he had to take them out again to comfort them.
The two men sat on a recliner, one on the other's lap, carefully rubbing their eyes.
"Tell me now, or I'll beat you up outside..."
She pinched the soft, round buttocks in her palm.
The target is obvious.
Yu Zhouwan blushed instantly and hurriedly pressed his wife's chest to push her away.
"No...you're not allowed to hit him!"
Normally, it's fine if the wife does as she pleases in bed, but now, we're outside, how can we fight like that in public? We absolutely forbid it!
"Okay, then tell me quickly."
She insisted on knowing, so Yu Zhouwan hesitated for a moment before reluctantly speaking, "That's right, they said I was bought by the wife, and according to the town's custom, I'm not fit to be a proper husband, only fit to be a lowly servant..."
"Them? Who are they? I'll go to their house and ask."
Where did this stubborn old man come from, meddling in my family's affairs?
Seeing his wife about to get up, Yu Zhouwan quickly pulled her back, saying, "Wife, don't go. There are many rumors in the village. You don't need to offend people for my sake. Anyway, you like me, so just let me be your husband."
He is actually very, very content.
"What else? What else?"
Chi Zhao's expression seemed calm. Yu Zhouwan glanced at him cautiously, then buried her head in her wife's arms, muttering, "And Xiao He's friends don't like me. My wife gives me money, and I want to save it to make clothes for her, but they get upset. They always say that my wife will hit people, and they don't want me to be nice to her. They also tell me not to always take my wife's allowance, otherwise one day my wife will think I spend too much money and sell me off like everyone else."
"My lady, my lady wouldn't do that, would she?"
Those long, narrow, dark phoenix eyes were filled with trepidation as they cautiously raised themselves.
Upon hearing Yu Zhouwan's words, Chi Zhao felt a surge of anger. No wonder Xiao Zhouwan wanted me to pick him up so much; it turned out he had been ostracized.
This place is no longer safe to live in.
She suppressed her displeasure, reached out and hugged her boyfriend, pulling him into her arms. She first reassured him with a "No."
He then bluntly said, "Don't listen to their nonsense. I've saved up some money these days. Let's move to town."
The rural environment is indeed peaceful, but there are too many gossipy neighbors.
It's uninhabitable, not even for a single day.
He never expected that after he had just complained to his wife, she would take him away from this place.
The boy looked dazed, as if he were dumbfounded and couldn't react. Someone poked his head, and his wife looked down at him gently and said, "Tomorrow we'll go to town to pick out a house."
In hindsight, an overwhelming joy swept over me.
Because others bullied me, the wife even wants to move to the house she's lived in since childhood!
She's going to stay with me even after leaving my hometown. Oh my god, my wife loves me so much!
Chi Zhao received no response, frowned slightly, lifted her husband's chin to take a look, and hey, that idiot, his eyes were brimming with tears again, and she didn't know what was wrong.
