Chapter 187 Eavesdropping
Song Yuntang didn't do much today. He had meat and vegetables for lunch, so he wasn't really hungry at night. Looking at the half bowl of rice in the bowl, he was embarrassed to say too much, so he could only pick up the food with chopsticks and eat slowly.
Xu Qingye noticed her movements and expressions.
"Can't finish it?"
Song Yuntang nodded truthfully and said, "I'm not very hungry."
Xu Qingye pushed his bowl towards her and said, "If you can't finish it, put it in my bowl."
Song Yuntang was stunned.
"But I have eaten."
"It doesn't matter."
Although Xu Qingye didn't mind, Song Yuntang still peeled off the surface layer and put the clean rice underneath into his bowl.
When the Jiang couple saw each other, they smiled at each other, but in order not to embarrass Song Yuntang, they did not show it too obviously.
It was gradually getting dark outside.
Xu Yongwang and the Jiang couple finished their meal quickly.
Seeing Xu Qingye and Song Yuntang both put down their chopsticks, the couple stood up at the same time to collect the bowls. Their movements were so smooth and efficient that it took Xu Wencheng a while to realize that the bowl in his hand had been taken away.
He was chewing the food in his mouth.
"Mom, I'm not full yet."
Being at the age of growing up, Xu Wencheng has a big appetite. This is already his second bowl and he wanted to have a little more.
"When can't we eat? It's getting dark. Hurry up and wash up and go to bed." Jiang collected the dishes and went to the kitchen without saying a word.
Xu Wencheng had not yet put down the chopsticks in his right hand, but turned to look at Xu Yongwang for help.
"father……"
Before he could even open his mouth, his chopsticks were taken away by Xu Yongwang.
"Your mother is right, dear. If you are not full, you can eat tomorrow."
Xu Wencheng looked aggrieved, "Why?"
Xu Yongwang just smiled and said nothing.
What does a young boy know about the fun of the wedding night?
Xu Wencheng turned and looked at Xu Qingye with a pout.
"Brother, I'm not full."
Xu Qingye glanced towards the kitchen and said nothing.
Song Yuntang, who didn't understand why the Jiang couple did this, smiled, turned around, went into the house, grabbed a handful of winter melon candy and put it in his hand.
"Here, eat, but be sure to rinse your mouth before going to bed, otherwise your teeth will get rotten."
The boy grinned.
"My sister-in-law is still good to me."
Seeing the two of them laughing heartlessly, Xu Qingye's eyes flashed with helplessness.
Sure enough, being too young is like raising a child.
Under Jiang's repeated urging, the family washed up early and went into their respective rooms.
Before returning to the room, he did not forget to remind Xu Qingye.
"Qingye, there's hot water on the stove, be careful not to burn yourself when using it."
Xu Qingye's bed was a heated kang made of blue bricks. Xu Qingye had been in poor health before, and I seemed to have heard him mention it when they were in Rongshu Village. During the winter, Xu Yongwang and his wife never extinguished his kang.
The kang is solid, and the bedding and sheets are new, and very soft to sit on.
The bright red bed sheet was embroidered with the word "囍" in golden thread, which looked extremely festive.
After washing up and changing into clean clothes, Song Yuntang sat on the edge of the bed. When he saw Xu Qingye enter the room, he suddenly became nervous.
As if knowing that she was uneasy, Xu Qingye did not pay too much attention to her and cause her mental burden.
He turned off the lights, and came to sit beside her in the moonlight outside, looking calm and unhurried from beginning to end.
"My parents told me to go to bed early tonight, so I may need to pretend. From tomorrow on, you go to bed first and leave a place for me next to you."
Song Yuntang breathed a sigh of relief, nodded and said okay, then climbed into the bed using his hands and feet and lay down on his side with his back facing him.
Since there was only one quilt, I just picked up a corner of it and put it on my body.
Song Yuntang still trusts Xu Qingye's character.
I woke up early today. I was tense all day, but now I relaxed and fell asleep quickly.
Looking sideways at the thin figure pressed against the wall, the man smiled, and pulled the quilt over her, covering her more.
It’s cooler in the mountains than in town. If you don’t cover yourself enough, you’ll catch a cold tomorrow.
…
Outside the house, Jiang, who was lying in the corner, didn't hear any noise for a long time. She was confused and was about to get up and go back to the house. As soon as she turned around, she bumped into a chest as hard as a stone.
Men do farm work all year round, so they are naturally very strong.
Jiang was hit so hard that she covered her nose for a long time.
"You want to die? Why didn't you tell me you were standing behind me?"
Xu Yongwang grabbed his head embarrassedly.
"Didn't you tell me to be quiet?"
Jiang quickly pushed him into the house and said, "Go, go, go, don't let the children find out."
Coming into the room, Xu Yongwang looked at her.
"Did you hear anything?"
"I heard nothing."
Jiang sat down at the table, poured herself a glass of water and took a sip, with a thoughtful look on her face.
Xu Yongwang was a little surprised.
"How could we not hear anything on our wedding night? We made quite a noise back then."
When talking about her marriage, Jiang still wishes she could do it all over again.
Back then, the conditions of Xu Yongwang's in-laws' family were not as good as they are now. Xu Yongwang slept on a wooden bed. Perhaps because the bed had been used for a long time, it collapsed on the night of the wedding...
The result is predictable.
On their wedding night, they got up in the middle of the night to fix the bed. The noise was so loud that everyone in the family knew about it. They were the only ones in the area who did this.
At that time, I really wanted to find a hole in the ground to crawl into.
"How dare you say that? I was in Lushan Village on my first day and everyone was gone."
Xu Yongwang chuckled.
"We are already an old married couple, what is there to be embarrassed about?"
Jiang didn't continue his topic, but expressed her own guess, "You said there was no movement on the wedding night, could it be that our son is not good at sex?"
Xu Yongwang frowned, "What do you mean?"
"Think about it, Qingye was ill for so many years and was as thin as a piece of firewood. His body must have been damaged. It has only been less than two months since he recovered. Although he has recovered, his body still needs to be adjusted."
“That makes sense.”
Xu Yongwang looked at her.
"So what should we do next?"
"Isn't our daughter-in-law a doctor herself? I'll talk to Qingye about it when the time comes. He'll have to be treated. After all, it's our own daughter-in-law who's doing the treatment, so there's nothing to be embarrassed about."
Hearing this, Xu Yongwang felt relieved.
My daughter-in-law can even cure Qingye’s previous serious illness, so this problem is child’s play.
"Okay, go talk to him tomorrow."
"For the sake of my fat grandson and granddaughter, I will go and talk to him tomorrow morning." Jiang finished drinking the water in the cup, turned around and went to bed.
Seeing this, Xu Yongwang immediately climbed up.
Jiang slapped the dirty hand at her waist.
"Get out of the way!"
Xu Yongwang said shamelessly, "I touch my own wife, what's your business?"
"You are too old to be ashamed!"
"You won't get a wife if you're shy."
"Xu Yongwang..."
That night, the water that the newlyweds didn't use was used by the old couple.
