Chunni and Laidi are both home today, and I was just thinking, why don't we make something delicious together?
Before Gu Xinyi could finish speaking, He Chaoyang entered the room carrying his things.
The small charcoal stove he was carrying made Gu Xinyi instantly understand everything. It seemed that the young couple planned to brew tea and enjoy the snow, indulging in a romantic moment.
An indescribable feeling welled up in her heart. Shu Ning's Brother He was really much more considerate than her Gao Hongyuan. Looking at the young couple in front of her, Gu Xinyi's eyes were full of envy.
So without waiting for Chen Shuning's reply, Gu Xinyi quickly added, "Oh dear, it seems I've come at the wrong time. You two are so romantic, I won't disturb you."
As He Chaoyang's injuries improved day by day, Chen Shuning knew that the day He Chaoyang would return to his unit was getting closer and closer, so the two of them cherished every moment they spent together.
Therefore, Chen Shuning didn't take Gu Xinyi's teasing to heart. Instead, she smiled and replied, "Yes, we're planning to have barbecue for lunch, so we won't join you guys today."
The happiness radiating from Chen Shuning's smile made Gu Xinyi instantly consider marriage.
But what happened next was like a sharp blade, directly shattering Gu Xinyi's idea of getting married like a bubble. Marriage is not always smooth and wonderful.
As soon as Chen Shuning finished speaking, a series of cries and shouts of cursing came from the front yard.
The two women, who loved watching a good show, exchanged a glance and, without prior arrangement, took off running.
Gu Xinyi was fine; she simply bypassed He Chaoyang and ran away smoothly. But Chen Shuning wasn't so lucky. Just as she passed by He Chaoyang, she was suddenly grabbed around the waist and picked up.
Then He Chaoyang's deep voice came from beside me: "Going out in such light clothing, do you want to get sick?"
He Chaoyang knew that besides being extremely interested in food and buying houses, his wife probably loved watching the excitement the most.
Therefore, he did not want to stop her, but he could not let her go out wearing only that thin jacket, which was even thinner than a sweater. After all, it was cold outside, with the north wind howling and snow falling heavily.
If his wife goes out dressed like that, she'll get sick in no time.
Chen Shuning designed this padded jacket herself and then asked Xu Laidi to help make it.
The jacket and trousers have a wide opening design similar to modern loungewear, and are filled with only a thin layer of cotton.
Paired with her homemade cotton slippers, this outfit is indeed comfortable to wear indoors, but it would be quite uncomfortable to go out in this kind of weather.
So at this moment, Chen Shuning, who was being held in He Chaoyang's arms, did not resist. Instead, she clung to He Chaoyang tightly with both hands and feet, like a koala.
She said in a sweet voice, "Fine, let's change it then. Why are you being so fierce?"
Chen Shuning's voice carried a hint of reproach and a touch of coquetry.
Hearing that soft, sweet voice, He Chaoyang's heart melted. He said softly, "I was just worried you'd catch a cold."
As he spoke, he hugged Chen Shuning even tighter, as if he wanted to meld her into his body and let her feel his warmth.
Chen Shuning felt sweetness in He Chaoyang's embrace.
She knew he cared about her, and she also knew his gentleness and thoughtfulness.
Leaning against He Chaoyang's chest, listening to his strong heartbeat, Chen Shuning felt so happy and at ease.
At that moment, she seemed to forget the cold outside and the liveliness in the front yard, wishing that time could stand still in this warm embrace.
While the two were enjoying their sweet time together, the atmosphere in the front yard was not so pleasant. Fang Qing's parents had been reluctantly dragged to the Wang family's house for dinner by everyone the previous night.
Because the Wang family was killing chickens and ducks, they didn't cause any more trouble in front of so many people.
In addition, last night, Fang Qing's parents, as the bride's parents, were invited by the Wang family to drink a few more drinks with those tactful guests. After being sent back, the two of them went straight to sleep.
However, the two of them came with other motives, and they never gave up on the idea of exchanging their daughter for their son in marriage.
So this morning, Fang Qing's parents started persuading her again. Having learned from yesterday's experience, this time they didn't demand things of her as forcefully as they had yesterday. Instead, they patiently and earnestly tried to persuade her.
To achieve their goal, they even went so far as to describe Director Lin, who had lost three wives and had a large number of children, as the best person in the world.
She also said that Director Lin had already arranged an office job for her and promised that once she married into the family, she would be in charge and that Director Lin's monthly salary of several tens of yuan would be given to her to manage.
In short, if Fang Qing marries that Director Lin, the benefits will be much better than marrying a chicken leg guy and staying in the countryside for the rest of her life.
But Fang Qing would never believe these words. From childhood to adulthood, her parents only cared about her younger brother. When would they ever genuinely care about her?
Moreover, her good friend had already written to her about Director Lin's situation half a month ago.
Director Lin is over fifty years old. He is not only old and ugly, but also has a particular fondness for drinking.
Every time he got drunk, he would beat his wife horribly. It is said that he beat his first three wives to death.
Even if a family had a lot of money and a good job, she would never dare to go there.
Therefore, Fang Qing remained firm in her stance, stating that she would never marry anyone other than Wang Changjiu in her life.
Fang's parents were eager to find a wife for their son. Seeing that their usually obedient daughter wouldn't listen to any persuasion, and since there were no outsiders around, they stopped trying to persuade her.
