He thought back to those days.
But soon, those images faded away, leaving only the beautiful face in front of me.
He pinched her cheek. "Are you calm now?"
Su Nianxue nodded, "Yes, I'm not angry anymore!"
"Would you like to see the new clothes now?" He pushed the bundle on the table toward her.
Su Nianxue smiled again and took out the clothes one by one from the bundle.
There were shirts, dresses, trousers, and leather shoes; the bundle was stuffed full of their clothes.
In contrast, his own clothes took up only a small corner.
"Yanbai, when you go out in the future, buy some clothes for yourself! Every time you come back, it's all our clothes, and the closet is almost full."
What did you just call me?
Meeting his expectant gaze, Su Nianxue winked playfully and whispered in his ear, "Gu~Yan~Bai!"
"Oh, I haven't disciplined you for a few days, and you're starting to tease me again."
He scooped her up in his arms and carried her hurriedly to the bedside.
...
As dusk settled in the west, Su Nianxue slowly awoke.
In the courtyard, Gu Yanliu was already preparing dinner.
Su Nianxue opened the door and waved to her, "Yanliu, come in, I have something to show you!"
Gu Yanliu quickly put down what she was holding and followed her into the room.
Su Nianxue took out two pieces of clothing and handed them to her.
"Here, this is what your brother just brought back from outside."
"Didn't you say you wanted to wear a shirt the other day? I happened to have two shirts with me, so you can have them both."
"Sister-in-law, what about you?"
No little girl doesn't love beauty, and she was no exception.
She wanted to touch it, but then she remembered that she had just picked vegetables and was afraid of getting her clothes dirty.
"I still have some, so don't worry, I won't shortchange myself!"
Seeing the two whispering in the room, Gu Yanbai smiled, washed his hands, and went to the kitchen.
When the meal was ready, they still hadn't come out of the room, so he called out into the room.
"Ladies, would you please come out and eat first?"
The two opened the door with a laugh, washed their hands, and sat down at the dining table.
But Gu Yanliu only took one bite before saying with a bitter face, "Brother, have you struck it rich lately?"
"What's wrong?"
"If you've struck it rich, why are you so willing to put in so much salt?"
"Try it yourself, they're practically beating the salt seller to death!"
Gu Yanbai tasted it, and it really was—extremely salty.
"It is a bit salty!"
"It must be because the salt we bought recently is too salty. I remember using the same amount before!" He firmly refused to believe that he had made a mistake.
Gu Yanliu rolled her eyes. "Come on, how many times have you even cooked?"
I've always done it all; you just cook porridge and wash the dishes at most.
You clearly added too much salt, but you're blaming it on the salt being too salty. I really don't know what to say to you.
"Why didn't I cook? When you were little, didn't I always cook for you?"
"It was clearly my sister who did it; you were just helping her out at most."
Later, my sister got married, and I took over the kitchen duties.
Seeing that the two were about to start arguing, Su Nianxue quickly said, "I'll go cook another dish!"
After finishing their meal, Gu Yanbai took his wife to the yard to cool off.
They claimed that since he cooked the food, Gu Yanliu should wash the dishes.
Gu Yanliu was too lazy to pay attention to him, yet he still had the nerve to bring up cooking.
None of the dishes I cooked for dinner were edible; my sister-in-law had to save the day.
The two of them leisurely leaned back in their recliners, holding palm-leaf fans in their hands, gazing at the stars in the sky.
"Zhou Mingjie is getting married in a few days. Come with me then!"
I need to help him tidy up the house these next couple of days, so I might be back a little late.
"Oh, okay!"
After he finished speaking, Su Nianxue considered her words for a moment and then spoke of her own affairs, "I want to make tofu every day from now on!"
Gu Yanbai took all the money out of his pocket and stuffed it into her hand. "Are you out of money?"
Su Nianxue waved her hand, "I don't lack money."
Leaving aside the household expenses he provides, just considering the dowry he gave her when she got married, she has quite a bit of money on her now.
In addition, she also makes and sells tofu, so she has enough to live on.
"Reasons." Gu Yanbai didn't object as vehemently as before.
They've been married for a while now, and he knows her pretty well.
She's a stubborn person; once she makes up her mind, she'll definitely get it done.
It was only during this time, as their relationship improved, that she was willing to wait for him to come back and have a proper talk with him.
If it weren't for her previous personality, he wouldn't have been away from home for so long.
She and the little girl had already acted first and informed the others later.
"Yanliu and I are both at home, and it's so boring."
Moreover, Er Ya and Sister Taozi are doing quite well now, and we want to go and keep them company.
"And also, I want my Qinghe tofu, like your Siyuan Restaurant, to become a signature dish of the town."
"Well done, Su Nianxue, you're quite ambitious!" Gu Yanbai's eyes flashed with a hint of admiration and a touch of helplessness.
"That's right. In the future, I will not only be the owner of Siyuan Restaurant, but also the owner of Qinghe Tofu."
I also want my Qinghe tofu to become a renowned establishment in town, just like Siyuan Restaurant.
Her eyes brightened even more when the topic came up.
Although her tofu business is only at a very small scale right now.
"Then I'll let you sit in the seat of Boss Siyuan. You'll be in the top position right away, isn't that great!"
