Chapter 48 Chapter 48

In the morning, Jia Yourui and Jia Guoye had breakfast together.

Jia Guoye ate faster than her, so he put down his bowl and chopsticks and said, "I'll wash the bowls when I get back. If you're tired, go back and sleep for a while."

"Yeah."

Jia Yourui lowered her head, thinking about what happened yesterday, and felt a little embarrassed.

...

After dinner yesterday, Jia Guoye was taking a shower, and Jia Yourui wanted to wash the dishes.

At first, she washed two bowls smoothly, but then she didn't pay attention, and her elbow hit the two bowls that she had just washed, and they were pushed out of the stove, and they fell to the ground with a "bang". Hearing

the noise, Jia Guoye hurriedly put on a coat and went into the kitchen to check the situation, with water dripping from his hair.

Seeing her at a loss, he smiled softly.

Approaching, Jia Guoye held her hand and examined it carefully.

Jia Yourui's face was a little hot.

Jia Guoye put down her hand, looked at her with her head tilted, and said softly: "Fortunately, she is fine."

...

Business was good today. Before noon, Jia Guoye had sold all the cakes.

Just as he was about to pack up and go home, he saw a man walking towards him.

Seeing the man's appearance clearly, Jia Guoye immediately put down the wooden pole in his hand.

"Sister Youqian." Jia Guoye's attitude was very respectful.

"Guoye, come, sit here." Jia Youqian walked to the shade of the tree and sat down, pointing to the open space next to her with a smile on her face.

Jia Guoye sat down.

"I came to the county for something, and I thought you might be here, so I came to see you." Jia Youqian smiled: "I almost ran into you."

Jia Guoye looked at Jia Youqian and always felt that she was different from before.

"I went home this time and saw my little sister. She is in much better spirits than before." Jia Youqian said: "Guoye, thank you so much. It seems that Dad's decision was right. He didn't make a mistake."

"No, I didn't do anything." Jia Guoye said: "Xiao Rui walked out by herself."

"Don't be modest." Jia Youqian said: "I can see that Xiao Rui is very dependent on you now."

Jia Guoye lowered his head slightly, staring at one place without moving, and I don't know what he was thinking.

"Always be good to our Xiaorui." Jia Youqian said with emotion: "If you dare to change your mind in the future, my brother and I will not let you off."

"No."

Jia Guoye's tone was very light, but very serious: "Sister, don't worry."

Jia Youqian looked at his serious promise, her expression seemed to freeze for a moment, but immediately smiled with relief: "Okay, sister believes you."

"Sister, do you have anything else?" Jia Guoye still asked.

Jia Youqian shook her head: "No."

She smiled and stood up: "Okay, I'll go home first, otherwise I won't be able to catch up with the tractor."

Jia Guoye tilted his head slightly: "Okay."

...

"Is this your aunt?" Qian Lixiang came over: "She's pretty."

Jia Guoye got up and continued to pack his things.

"But she looks quite young. Is your wife very young?"

Jia Guoye's mind flashed with Xiao Rui's sleepy face, and he nodded as if possessed by a ghost: "Yes." She is quite young.

This surprised Qian Lixiang: "When will you bring her out to see her?" He said.

...

When they arrived at the entrance of the village, Jia Guoye got off the tractor.

The villagers saw Jia Guoye: "Guoye, why did you come back so late? Go home quickly, your parents and sister-in-law just went to your house in a rage."

Jia Guoye's heart suddenly dropped, and he ran away without even bothering to thank them.

...

"Second daughter-in-law, is this what your family taught you? The cat is still sleeping on the bed at noon, with disheveled hair. What does it look like? You didn't even pour a sip of water when you saw your mother-in-law!"

Xiao Hei rushed in from outside and barked fiercely at Chen Xiushui.

Seeing the black dog suddenly jump out, Chen Xiushui took two steps back in fright.

"Oh, this little beast is still barking at me, hurry up and get it out of here."

Zhang Ruyu hurriedly supported her mother-in-law's body, "Mom, be careful."

Jia Yourui leaned over, picked up Xiao Hei, touched the irritable Xiao Hei soothingly, and coaxed, "Be good."

Her behavior of not taking her seriously at all and only caring about coaxing the puppy undoubtedly angered Chen Xiushui.

Chen Xiushui said viciously: "I'm hungry. Do you have anything to eat at home? Bring it out to me quickly."

Jia Yourui looked at her with innocent eyes: "I still have half a corn left from this morning. Do you want it?"

"You let your mother-in-law eat your leftovers?!" Chen Xiushui slammed the table. "This is really outrageous. Which daughter-in-law is as rude as you?"

"Don't you want to eat it?"

In stark contrast to the furious Chen Xiushui's attitude, Jia Yourui was calm and said without apology: "I'm sorry, there's nothing else."

Seeing that Chen Xiushui was so angry that her face turned red, and she was about to explode again. Zhang Ruyu hurriedly calmed her mother-in-law's emotions: "Second daughter-in-law, how can you talk to your mother?" She looked at Jia Yourui disapprovingly.

"Everyone knows that Guoye dotes on you. Why don't you take out some of the snacks Guoye usually buys for you and give them to me? Such things as melon seeds and candied flowers. How much do they cost?"

Zhang Ruyu urged, "Jia Yourui, why don't you go quickly? Look, I'm angry."

"No." Jia Yourui stood still and said word by word, "No melon seeds, no candied flowers."

You don't have anything you want.

"Hey? You little girl..." Zhang Ruyu raised her finger and wanted to point angrily.

Xiaohei saw that she was not kind to Jia Yourui, and barked at her in Jia Yourui's arms.

...Just at this moment, the door was kicked open by Jia Guoye.

Seeing the exhausted Jia Guoye, Zhang Ruyu immediately said, "Jia Guoye, do you know what your wife's attitude was just now? Let me teach you..." Zhang

Ruyu was like a chicken with blood injected. Just as she was about to "show off her skills", she was held down by her mother-in-law.

Chen Xiushui was so angry that she laughed. She looked at Jia Yourui with murderous intent.

"No, right?"

She said, "Then give me money." This was said to Jia Guoye.

Then, she turned her head and looked at Jia Yourui.

"The second son's father and I usually live in the old house. The old house takes care of our food and clothes. We don't rely on you two at all. It's not too much to ask you for some money."

Chen Xiushui's narrow eyes were full of undisguised greed and calculation, which made Jia Yourui feel disgusted and sad.

She really didn't feel sorry for Jia Guoye at all.

Jia Yourui thought.

Jia Guoye stepped forward, stood in front of Jia Yourui, and protected her behind him.

"I have already given you this month's money at the beginning of the month." He said lightly.

"So what? I've spent it all."

Chen Xiushui said shamelessly, "I don't ask you for anything normally. I finally ask you for money again. It's not too much, right?"

"Yeah, you don't ask me normally." Jia Guoye chuckled wickedly, "You came when you needed money."

...

Chen Xiushui's face turned red and white.

Zhang Ruyu saw that something was wrong and said quickly, "Guoye, you can't talk to your mother like that. Apologize now."

Jia Guoye looked at them expressionlessly, as if he was expecting them to do something else.

"You've learned to talk back."

Chen Xiushui said sarcastically, "Okay, second son, you've grown up and become so arrogant that you don't care about your parents in order to protect your wife."

"I tell you!" The old lady's voice suddenly became louder: "If you don't give me the money today, I will cry at your doorstep, you unfilial son, I wonder if you still have any shame!"

"Go ahead and cry."

Jia Guoye's tone was calm, with a hint of power.

He said, "For a person like me, what face do I have to lose?"

It was a light sentence.

Jia Yourui's heart was immediately splashed with ice water, and she couldn't help but feel sad.
