Chapter 258 Conflict



Wei Yuyan thought that now that the weather was getting warmer, many flowers were blooming, so she should go outside and look for them.

"Okay, I also plan to go to the mountain to look for flowers tomorrow."

Chen Yu nodded. For a shop to do well, it needs to innovate frequently.

"How about I go with you tomorrow? I've been bored at home lately."

I was thinking of going up the mountain to find some wild fruits to eat, and maybe I could even find some valuable medicinal herbs.”

Wei Yuyan felt a little itchy inside.

"I wouldn't dare take you there rashly; your Wu Chen would definitely blame me then."

Chen Yu was terrified. Wu Chen was such a protective husband; if his little sister stayed on the mountain for too long, he would definitely cause trouble for him.

"Oh well, whatever, I'm going."

Wei Yuyan was unconvinced and hadn't been to the mountain in a long time.

"You'll have to talk to your brother-in-law beforehand, otherwise I won't go with you."

Chen Yu was full of survival instinct.

"That's right. If my brother-in-law says we didn't tell him, he won't dare to say anything to you, but he'll say something to us."

The eldest sister couldn't help but tease Wei Yuyan.

"Okay, okay, I'll definitely talk to him properly tonight, and we'll leave a little earlier tomorrow morning."

Wei Yuyan thought that Wu Chen had no say in her personal freedom. Besides, there was no danger on the mountain. She had been going up and down alone before without any problems.

Evening~

"Wu Chen, I've made plans with my brother-in-law to go up the mountain tomorrow morning."

After taking a shower, Wei Yuyan came to the room, where Wu Chen was already reading a book.

"Huh? What are you going to do up the mountain? I'll go with you."

Wu Chen put the book down as well.

"No need, the kids will need to eat when they get home from school. You can cook at home. It's safe for my brother-in-law and me to go."

Wei Yuyan felt that Wu Chen wouldn't be of much help even if he went, so she might as well stay home and cook.

"Then let's wait until the day after tomorrow, when the children are resting, and I'll go with you, okay?"

Wu Chen wanted to stay by Wei Yuyan's side all the time.

"What are you worried about? You weren't home before, and I still went up and down the mountain all by myself."

Why weren't you worried then? You seemed quite at ease.

Wei Yuyan blurted out her true feelings in a rather annoyed manner.

Sorry~

Wu Chen lowered his eyes like a child who had done something wrong.

"Time for bed, I have to get up early tomorrow."

Seeing Wu Chen's dejected expression, Wei Yuyan suddenly regretted speaking so harshly.

Wu Chen lay in bed, struggling with whether or not to tell Wei Yuyan about what had happened over the past two years.

If I tell her, it's like having another person take on the risk; if I don't tell her, won't she often blame me?

When Wei Yuyan woke up in the morning, Wu Chen was already up. Wei Yuyan changed into her old clothes and went downstairs.

"Sister-in-law, come and eat the dumpling soup that my brother cooked, it's delicious."

Qianqian also got up early today.

"good"

Wei Yuyan picked up the cooled dumpling soup from the table. It was filled with a variety of ingredients: dried radish, dried mushrooms, cured meat, and eggs. It tasted delicious!

"Yuyan, these are brown sugar steamed buns, there are four inside, you and your brother-in-law can have them for lunch."

Wu Chen came out of the kitchen with a bag of brown sugar steamed buns in his hand, and the sweet aroma could be smelled from afar.

"Hmm~".

Wei Yuyan felt guilty and didn't look at Wu Chen, only nodding. She could sense that Wu Chen was in a low mood.

"Is Sister-in-law going up the mountain today?"

Xiao Lei was a little surprised; his sister-in-law hadn't been there in a long time.

"Yeah, let's try our luck and see if there are any good wild fruits."

Wei Yuyan actually wanted to find something else: white fungus. She had run out of white fungus at home and was missing it.

"Be careful. I heard that with the better weather, wild boars and other wild animals are coming out to look for food."

Xiao Lei is already quite grown up now, and Wei Yuhan thinks he might become as talkative as Wu Chen in the future.

"Okay, I'm full. I'll be back early this afternoon."

Wei Yuyan was actually saying this to Wu Chen.

"Xiao Lei... before I came back, did your sister-in-law ever talk about me? Did she... often scold me at home? Or resent me?"

Wu Chen waited until Wei Yuyan left before asking his question.

"No, my sister-in-law rarely talks about you, and even when she does, she never scolds you."

Wu Lei thought about it carefully before answering Wu Chen's question seriously.

"Oh, that's alright then. Go to school now, don't be late."

Wu Chen nodded. He actually hoped that Wei Yuyan would scold him often, because that would mean she thought of him frequently.

"Brother-in-law, you're too late, hurry up."

Wei Yuyan finally got to see her brother-in-law.

"Yes, I came all the way from town. What do you think? Next time I'll just go to the mountain next to town. This place is too far."

Chen Yu came here this time because he had been to these mountains before and knew where the flowers were.

On other mountains, not knowing where the flowers bloom, wouldn't one just be like a headless fly flying around?

"Sure, I'll take you to see the deep mountains today; there must be beautiful flowers there."

Silver ear fungus grows on the edge of deep mountains, so Wei Yuyan would definitely have to go there to find it.

"Wouldn't that be too dangerous?"

Chen Yu thought that Wu Chen would definitely be angry if he found out that he and his younger sister had gone to the deep mountains.

"It's not dangerous. I've been there many times. What's there to be afraid of? It's just on the edge. Come with me."

Wei Yuyan immediately took Chen Yu and headed into the deep mountains.

"The forsythia here is lovely, brother-in-law, the colors are so beautiful."

Wei Yuyan and Chen Yu encountered some flowers along the way, which were blooming quite beautifully.

"Let's pick them when we get back. If we pick them now, we're too lazy to carry them back."

Chen Yu pondered that perhaps there were even prettier ones up there.

The two of them first went deep into the mountains to find some white fungus. There wasn't much white fungus available now, and they only picked a little bit before it was all gone, leaving Wei Yuyan somewhat disappointed.

"Little sister, there's an orange tree here, pick some to take home."

Chen Yu discovered something good: there were quite a few oranges on the orange tree. The tree wasn't tall, so Chen Yu simply climbed up.

"Pick more, they taste great."

Wei Yuyan peeled one open; it was sweet and sour, very appetizing, and could even be made into canned oranges.

"Hey, little sister, I saw a really beautiful flowering tree in the tree. Orange, you tidy up, I'm going to go see the flowers."

Chen Yu quickly climbed down and went ahead, while Wei Yuyan stayed behind to put the oranges that Chen Yu had just picked into her basket.

"Little sister, what's this called? It's so pretty, and it has a faint fragrance~".

Chen Yu didn't recognize the flower, but he had already picked quite a few.

"Hey, isn't this a cherry blossom? Brother-in-law, don't pick flowers you don't recognize in the future, what if they're poisonous?"

Wei Yuyan felt it was time to buy her brother-in-law a book on plants so he could learn about them.

"Huh? This flower is poisonous?"

Chen Yu's hand trembled.

"No, this flower is not available. I mean, in the future, if you don't recognize it, don't pick it."
