What?
Yin Lan was puzzled.
"You called me? What did you call me?" Chen Yourun reminded him.
Yin Lan realized what was happening. Husband, husband, indeed.
Honestly, look at that man's pleading eyes, he clearly wants her to call out again, and here we are on the street.
She pulled her hand back. "Let's go quickly."
The oxcart was almost full, and the cloth was covered with something, mainly to prevent it from getting wet if it rained.
The car was packed full of other things, some here and some there.
Every time she went to the county town, she returned with a full load of goods.
But once they return to the village and are seen by others, things will be different.
"Hey, Boss Chen, you bought so much stuff?"
“Yes, we’re building a house, so we need to buy some things,” Chen Yourun replied.
"What are these for?" The villagers didn't know either.
"It's very useful; it holds bowls."
"Oh, I even bought things specifically to put here?" Isn't that a waste of money?
"You don't understand. Many families in the county have started using it. This way, the dishes and chopsticks stay clean, and the house stays tidy."
Men who previously expressed their incomprehension of these things can now confidently offer explanations.
Yin Lan found it somewhat amusing.
Let him explain; she's happy to have some peace and quiet.
Seeing how prosperous their lives were, the villagers were speechless.
What a waste of money! When Madam Yin was alone, she was the only one who squandered money. I thought that with Chen Yourun's return, things would be a little better, but I never expected that the two of them would squander money together.
"Men, after being flattered by a woman, can easily get carried away and buy whatever they want."
Qian Dongju spoke up, "Oh, so you wanted to buy a face cream last time, it cost fifty coins, why didn't you coax your man into buying it for you?"
The person who was speaking was speechless for a long time.
“This stuff is useless. Look, even Old Chen didn’t buy it for Madam Yin. And even with Madam Yin’s pretty face, he didn’t buy her fifty coins’ worth of aphrodisiac.”
“Maybe someone bought it, and it’s worth a hundred coins,” Qian Dongju said.
"If she bought it, wouldn't she show it off?" The woman simply didn't believe it.
"Maybe they just don't like to show off."
"Ha, who doesn't love to show off? That Yin family..."
The Yin family is different now. In the past, when people criticized her, many responded, but now it's different. When they talk about her, most of them praise her, and no one dares to say anything more.
The oxcart slowly made its way toward Yin Lan's little thatched hut.
Yin Lan glanced back at the villagers who had just asked her questions.
There's really nothing else to do in the village all day. All they can do is gossip, see what others have done and what they've eaten, and talk nonsense.
Yin Lan thought that if she gave them more things to do in the future, she could shut them up.
Let's talk about it when winter is over and spring arrives.
However, Yin Lan's question had been lingering in her mind: Chen Yourun had also grown up in this village, and had also experienced hardship as a child, so what about him...?
"Don't you think I'm a spendthrift?" Yin Lan asked, while observing his expression.
Chen Yourun's expression turned serious.
No way, you guessed it right?
Chen Yourun then spoke up, "Who said that?"
"I bought so many things today," Yin Lan said, startled.
Chen Yourun said seriously, his face still not looking good, "How many of those things were for you? They were all for the family. If Yin Lan is wasteful, the whole family is wasteful together, so how is it your problem? Besides, you want our family to be better off, which is a good thing, how can it be considered wasteful?!"
Moreover, she always makes excuses when we try to buy her cosmetics, clearly showing how frugal she is and how she cares about the whole family!
Besides, Chen Yourun was overjoyed that she was thinking of this family.
Yin Lan was still somewhat moved.
It seems that because of what happened to the original owner of this body in the past, she would be criticized whenever she spent a little money. Fortunately, this man is not like that.
She looked at his still cold and hard face.
"Okay, I'll spend more money in the future."
Chen Yourun's expression finally improved a bit. "Spend it as much as you want, I'll find a way to earn it back."
He wouldn't think she spends too much money; he'd only think he hasn't given her enough.
He would want to give her a better life.
Yin Lan looked at this man and was satisfied with everything about him, except... he sometimes didn't wash his feet at night.
The oxcart finally arrived at the door of the little hut.
There weren't many people around at the moment; everyone was gathered at the other end. The first batch of mud bricks had been made, so they had actually started building houses. It seemed like the children were on break, so they were all crowding over there watching with great interest.
Chen Yourun turned around to unload the things from the oxcart.
"Husband?"
Upon hearing the sound, Chen Yourun froze, somewhat unable to believe what he had just heard.
He turned around and saw his wife's smiling face, fair and rosy. When she smiled like that, it seemed to make it hard for him to breathe.
"What... are you doing?"
"Come here." Yin Lan beckoned to him with her finger.
Chen Yourun paused, feeling that her smile was a little strange, but still walked over as instructed.
"Wh...what's wrong?" Did he do something wrong? It doesn't seem like he did. Or does she have some new idea? It doesn't matter. She doesn't need to smile at him like that. That smile is making him feel uneasy.
Chen Yourun lowered his head. "If there's something you need to say, just say it. Let's discuss it..."
