The hypocritical Xu Ning also noticed the unfriendly look from the opposite side and glanced at her expressionlessly.
The middle-aged woman looked at Xu Ning's unpleasant look and turned away angrily.
Xu Ning snorted softly and continued reading the book.
Lu Xiaotang was relieved when he received a call from Tiedan and Zhuzi and learned that his wife had returned by car.
When the train was about to arrive at the station, Xu Ning looked at the big sacks with a headache.
One package contained local specialties she bought herself, and the other package contained her spare clothes.
The two large sacks were specialties bought by Tiedan and Zhuzi.
She originally planned to put the specialties she bought in the space.
But Tiedan saw her buying things, so she had to pick them up herself.
She carried two bags on her back and held two large sacks, one in each hand.
When getting off the train, everyone stared at her in disbelief, wondering, how come this girl looks so thin?
Xu Ning walked forward with his bag and sack in his hand, looking straight ahead.
He didn't care at all about the looks from passers-by, but in his heart he cursed Tiedan and Zhuzi.
You know I’m carrying them all by myself, but you still buy so many things? Are you stupid?
Lu Xiaotang, who was looking around at the exit, saw his wife carrying two on her back and holding two bigger ones in her hands.
He quickly took it and said distressedly, "Why did you buy so many things?"
Xu Ning glared at him and said unhappily, "How could I buy this? Tiedan and Zhuzi brought this for you and Niupitang."
"Those two brats are such a jerk. Why did they buy so many things? Look how tired you are. Next time I see them, I will definitely scold them."
Xu Ning chuckled twice and said, "I believe you are kidding."
He said your brother brought you something, and you looked so happy that your mouth was almost grinning behind your ears.
Instead of scolding them, I think it’s better to praise them.
"Have Mom and Dad and Niupitang come back yet?"
Lu Xiaotang walked beside her carrying her luggage and said with a smile, "She hasn't come back yet. Xiao Mo called yesterday and said she had booked a train ticket for tomorrow."
"Xiao Mo is going too?"
She said that she called home during this period, but Xiao Mo was not there.
She wanted to ask, but Grandpa Qi always said that the phone bill was too expensive and asked her to say less.
So she didn't know that Xiao Mo had gone to visit relatives in Nanshi.
Lu Xiaotang suppressed his laughter and said, "Yes, he said that we two wouldn't go with him because he was afraid that our uncle and aunt would think too much. This time he went to show filial piety on our behalf."
"Haha, that sounds nice. He just wants to join in the fun, so why drag us into it?"
Lu Xiaotang didn't say anything. He didn't know whether his wife had calmed down or not.
If I say something wrong and make her angry, I will be in big trouble.
Seeing that he didn't say a word, Xu Ning said unhappily, "Why don't you say anything? Are you still angry? If you hadn't pretended to be sick to lie to me, would I have ignored you for so long?"
He hurriedly smiled and said, "No, no, wife, how could I dare to be angry? I was just afraid that you were still angry with me, so I didn't dare to say anything."
"Humph, you still have some self-awareness. If you dare to pretend to be sick and lie to me again next time, I will definitely not let it go."
Lu Xiaotang assured, "No, no, wife, I will never dare to do it again."
She glanced at him coquettishly and said, "Since your attitude is so good, I'll forgive you this time."
Lu Xiaotang drove the car back to the compound, and Xu Ning went upstairs to take a shower.
He put the things he brought back into order, leaving most of them in the living room, and taking them to his father-in-law in a couple of days.
After washing his hands, he went upstairs carrying his wife's bag of clothes.
As soon as Xu Ning came out of the bathroom, Lu Xiaotang opened the door.
The two looked at each other and the atmosphere became ambiguous.
She paused with her hand holding the towel and looked away uncomfortably.
Lu Xiaotang gently closed the door, took the towel from her hand and helped her wipe her hair.
I don't know when the towel fell to the ground, and the glimmer of light coming through the curtains gradually dimmed.
When Xu Ning woke up, it was completely dark outside. An arm was placed on her waist and the sound of even breathing could be heard above her head.
She wanted to drink some water and was about to take his hand away, but as soon as she moved, Lu Xiaotang woke up.
He said in a hoarse voice, "You're awake. Are you hungry? I'll go cook."
Xu Ning saw that he was awake, touched his face, and said gently: "You are not hungry, you can sleep for a while, I will go downstairs to drink some water."
Lu Xiaotang immediately got up and put on his clothes, saying, "Don't go down, I'll go help you pour it. It's snowing today! It's a bit cold."
He put on his clothes and asked again, "What would you like to eat tonight? I'll make it."
Xu Ning rolled over on the bed, stretched himself, and began to order food. "I want boiled eggs, millet porridge, and some pickled vegetables."
Lu Xiaotang kissed her on the forehead and said gently, "Okay, then you sleep a little longer. I'll bring it to you when the meal is ready."
Xu Ning hugged his neck, kissed him on the lips, and said with a smile: "Whose man is this? He is so virtuous."
Lu Xiaotang blew a breath in her ear and said ambiguously: "Whose man am I, don't you know?
You forgot it so quickly. How about I help you recall it again? ”
Xu Ning kicked him lightly and said coquettishly, "Hurry up and cook. If you leave your wife hungry, you will suffer the consequences."
Lu Xiaotang kissed her hard on the lips, then went downstairs to cook with a big laugh.
