"Tsk, how dare you say that to me? You've been married to your wife for two or three months, and you haven't even kissed her lips, have you?"
Wei Xiao sneered and looked at Song Che who was smiling faintly at the side. "Brother Li, you should learn from Brother Che and launch a fierce attack. A good girl is afraid of being pestered by a man. If she is annoyed by you, she will naturally give in."
"Hmph, compromise?" Qin Li glared at him coldly, "Do you think I'm just like you, worthy of being someone else's compromise? What I want is her heart, a heart that belongs completely to me."
Listening to his gnashing words, Wei Xiao could only chuckle and say, "Brother Li is so powerful, I naturally can't compare to you."
There was a flash of resentment in Song Che's eyes. He was pestering her and wanted her to have no one in his heart.
Otherwise, no matter how good the person is, she would not be willing to settle.
Qin Li returned around six o'clock the next evening.
I brought half a piece of fresh mutton, five frozen hens, three fresh plucked ducks, two cured geese, and a string of cured sausages.
These were made by the three of them themselves in the mountains.
Chen Tan was shocked at where these things came from, but he didn't ask.
She cut all the food into small portions and hid them in an ice jar.
While steaming the rice, I also steamed two pieces of sausage.
I also stewed lamb chops in a small clay pot, made pickled cabbage, and stir-fried some green vegetables.
The meal was ready and the three of them sat down, but none of them picked up their chopsticks.
Qin Li's beard covered half of his face, and his eyes were filled with deep guilt. "Grandma, Xiao Tan, I'm sorry for making you worry."
"Brother, let's eat."
Chen Tan scooped him a bowl of mutton soup, speaking in a calm tone without a trace of blame.
She was already dependent on him for support, so there was no reason to blame him.
Qin Qiuniang looked at him distressedly, sighed heavily, and her eyes moistened, "Eat."
Qin Li lowered his head, his eyes a little moist.
If he only had to support grandma and the maid, he wouldn't have to work so hard.
After dinner, Qin Li cleaned the kitchen.
After Chen Tan helped the old lady to sleep, he went to the bathroom and found that her washbasin and foot basin were full of hot water.
Her mind was full of questions, "Intermittent amnesia?"
She remembered that Qin Li ignored her before he left.
After she finished washing and was about to go back to her room to rest, she was pulled into the next room.
"Brother, what's wrong?"
Looking at her alert eyes, Qin Li gritted his teeth, anger hidden between his brows, "Aren't you curious about where I've been these past few days?"
Chen Tan blinked her innocent eyes and said, "You are a man, you have your reasons. I am a woman, I can't help you with anything, so it's not appropriate for me to ask."
"hiss!"
Qin Li took a breath as if he had a toothache, and lifted the person up to sit on his desk. "Little thing, you always try to stop me with words. This is for you."
He took out a square wooden box from the desk drawer and said, "Open it and take a look."
"What is it?" Chen Tan took the box. It was made of rosewood and had a faint woody fragrance.
What's in such a precious box?
Chen Tan was feeling a little excited. After slowly opening it, a pair of ancient-style pearl hairpins came into view.
The hairpin is made of a silver bar in the shape of a wheat ear wrapped into a vine branch, and each branch is inlaid with a pearl the size of a peanut.
The bright white halo blends together, which is very elegant and unique.
Qin Li looked at the sparkling light in her eyes and smiled, "Do you like it?"
Chen Tan suppressed the joy in his eyes and said, "I don't like this thing. Don't give me gifts anymore in the future."
Meeting her cold gaze, the usually arrogant Qin Li became somewhat exasperated.
Hurt flashed across the depths of his eyes, and he slumped down in the chair behind him, "Do you dislike me as much as others do?"
"Don't be so sensitive. I'm not. I'm ugly myself. How can I have the nerve to look down on you?"
Chen Tan placed the wooden box on the table and jumped down lightly. "I'm sorry, it's getting late. I should go to bed."
Before she took two steps, she was pulled around, spun around, and forced to sit in a chair.
Qin Li put his hands on the armrests of the chair and leaned over to look at her. "I regret it. I want you to be my wife, my woman, and you can't leave me for the rest of your life."
"You can't trap me, right?" Chen Tan leaned his head against the back of the chair, without a trace of panic. "Even if you keep my body, you can't keep my heart. Then we will torture each other and live our lives."
She also didn't expect that a hot-blooded man wouldn't have any youthful impulses towards a non-blood-related woman with whom he lived day and night.
Now she was betting on his proud self-esteem. In the days when he wouldn't touch her, she could earn more money. If she could get help from outside forces to leave earlier, that would be even better.
"Okay, I want to see how difficult it is to get your heart." Qin Li's face was almost touching Shen Tan's face. "From tomorrow on, I will treat you as my wife. When I get your heart, I will sleep with you."
Xiaozi is right. If you like someone, you have to stick with him/her.
Besides, why couldn't he keep the woman he had married for more than two hundred yuan as his wife?
Starting tomorrow, he will exercise his rights as a man.
Damn big brother, go to hell.
Chen Tan looked at the beard that pricked her face, his eyes showing undisguised disgust. "When you hold the sand tightly in your hand, the tighter you hold it, the faster the sand will leak out."
"Hmph," Qin Li, a straight man, thought she disliked him. He turned his face away hurt, stood up straight, and said angrily, "I'm holding her with both hands, let's see how she can still leak."
Hearing the word "hold", Chen Tan thought of the candy and stood up shyly, "I'm going to sleep. You don't have to leave tomorrow, I have to go to the county town."
"Take the hairpin away," Qin Li held her arm, "If you don't want it, don't go out."
