Chapter 38 037. "This is in public, please be mindful of the impact"
“…”
Zhou Yi paused, then shook his head, "That's not what I meant."
"What do you mean?"
"I just..." I care about you.
Zhou Yi felt that he was in the clearest mind, but when he met Lei Li's smiling eyes, he couldn't say the rest of the words for some reason, and his ears turned red.
"Just what?"
Lei Li came so close that his breath hit Zhou Yi's face. He looked like he was going to kiss him if he didn't tell the truth, causing Zhou Yi to step back in panic.
"...Don't get so close."
"Why?"
"Because I can't drive. If you don't look at the road, you're going to hit someone."
"oh……"
Lei Li raised his eyebrows, moved away, and sat back in his seat. His smiling eyes were frivolous and ambiguous. He glanced at Zhou Yi's lower body and said,
"You don't seem to think so elsewhere."
“……?”
Zhou Yi subconsciously looked down, and everything was calm, no reaction.
"Ha ha ha ha……"
Lei Li laughed heartily, "Husband, you're so easy to fool, like a fool."
“…”
How can you lie to people and curse them?
Zhou Yi choked.
But he was used to being teased by Lei Li, so he just sighed in his heart when he heard him laugh. Before he could sigh out completely, his chin was suddenly pinched by someone.
soft.
Warm.
Zhou Yi was a little stunned, but soon realized that he was kissed by Lei Li, and his ears became even hotter. "We're in public, please be careful of the impact."
"I kiss my husband, what are the consequences?"
“…”
Zhou Yi couldn't say anything.
Lei Li's expression became even more playful and wanton, his eyes lingering on his ears.
It's really fun.
Now my ears will turn red even if I don’t kiss them.
Kissing makes it even redder.
If they weren't on the street, Lei Li really wanted to strip him of his clothes and see if he would have a child with her today. Even if he didn't...
Zhou Yi’s reaction was also very funny.
—
Mr. Zhu returned home at noon.
When he heard that Lei Li and Zhou Yi had sent several kilograms of wild boar meat and even left his favorite pig intestines, he smiled so much that his face turned red, and he even said that it was a blessing that he had accepted Lei Li as his brother.
This joy reached its peak after Zhou Yi showed off his skills again and stir-fried a dish of colorful, fragrant and delicious large intestines with pickled five-color peppers and wild onions.
"Oh, I was saying that our Lei Li is a lucky man. The husband she found is just different!"
Mr. Zhu praised him while taking out his fine vintage wine. "How can you have fried pig intestines and wild boar meat without good wine? Come on, drink a few bowls with me today!"
"father!"
Zhu Zhuer's eyes were sinister. She stared at Zhu Da Hu's hand as he took out the wine, and finally put it back in shame.
Mr. Zhu also tried to play the emotional card, "Isn't it a rare occasion for Lei Li and Zhou Yi to come? Just drink a little... Come on, come on, for you and my grandson, I won't drink!"
"That's more like it."
Zhu Zhuer snorted. Seeing that Lei Li had finished his meal, she pulled him to her room and said, "Let my father and the others clean up the dishes. You can't let my husband do everything."
After saying that, he glanced at Zhou Yi.
Zhou Yi: “……?”
Is this a knock on him?
When did he give all the work to Lei Li? Wasn't he doing enough?
Lei Li almost treated him like an animal.
"Don't always target my husband."
Lei Li knew that Zhu Zhuer was doing this for his own good, but he really thought that his husband was a good person, capable, and could be played with in any way he wanted, and he didn't hold grudges.
"He's a big, strong man. I'm afraid he doesn't know how to be kind and won't treat you well."
Zhu Zhuer took out some small clothes from the cabinet. They were obviously for babies. They were embroidered with little tigers, which looked fierce and adorable.
Zhu Zhuer asked Lei Li a little embarrassedly, "Can you show me how these clothes of mine are made? They're for my little Yuanbao."
"Little Yuanbao?"
"Yes, my cub's name."
Zhu Zhuer touched her belly and said with a smile, "My husband said that he hopes our baby will have lots of money to spend in the future, and no shortage of gold ingots, so he will be named Yuanbao."
"Is this also your name?"
"No, I'll give you the nickname after you're born. Call him by this nickname for now."
“It sounds nice.”
Lei Li nodded, took the small clothes and looked at them carefully. He only felt that the stitching was fine and the patterns were beautiful, but he couldn't make out anything else.
"I'm not good at embroidery. These are the most beautiful children's clothes I've ever seen. The material is also soft and won't rub the child."
"Yes, I specially selected the softest material. One piece of cloth cost me two taels of silver."
Zhu Zhuer laid out all the small clothes on the bed, touched them with a sense of accomplishment, and sighed, "Two taels of silver... only made these few pieces. The child is growing fast, and there will be many places to spend money in the future."
"If it were a young boy, my husband would have wanted to send him to school."
"Are you still studying?"
Lei Li frowned, also feeling the high cost. "I heard that the cheapest private school teacher has to pay two taels of silver a year, including food and accommodation at home. More importantly, books, paper, and pens cost one tael of silver per book."
"yes……"
Zhu Zhuer smiled and said, "My husband's idea is that he should teach Yuanbao to recognize some words first to see if he has talent. If he does, we will work harder and support him no matter how much money we have. Don't delay Yuanbao."
"That's right."
Lei Li nodded.
Zhu Zhuer smiled ambiguously again, "What about you and your husband? When are you going to have a child? If the age difference is not too big, the child can go to school with our Yuanbao and have someone to look after him."
"It's still early."
Lei Li didn't tell him in detail about herself and Zhou Yi's situation, and asked him again, "Why is your husband not here this time? He didn't even come back at noon?"
"No, it's night time."
Zhu Zhuer sighed, "My husband earns a lot of money in this job, but he rarely sees me in the morning. He only comes back when I'm almost asleep at night, and we barely have a word."
Zhu Zhuer yawned as she spoke. "I sleep a lot since I had a baby. I get sleepy easily. I once slept for eight hours in one day. My dad was so scared that he went to see a doctor."
"It's scary."
Lei Li remembered that when Liu Xiaocao was pregnant with Tao Ge'er, she didn't seem to like sleeping as much as Zhu Zhu'er.
Willow Xiaocao likes to eat.
He wanted to taste everything, whether sour, sweet, salty or bitter. Sometimes he wanted to eat meat, and sometimes he only wanted to eat porridge and pickles, which made Niu Ershu very worried.
Gui Fulang said loudly that since he was so troublesome, he must be a difficult guy to please, and he might not be able to get married like Lei Li in the future.
After hearing this, Liu Xiaocao said that Gui Fulang cursed his son, and she was so angry that she quarreled with Gui Fulang for a month, and was forced to avoid him whenever she saw him because of Gui Fulang's scolding.
Later, the baby was born, and it was really a boy. Mrs. Gui smiled so hard that her mouth almost broke.
Liu Xiaocao pretended to be stubborn and bought the best things for Tao Ge'er, but she was secretly annoyed at herself as to why she was not like her sister-in-law and had a son as the first child.
Fortunately, the village chief's family does not favor men over boys and girls, otherwise Liu Xiaocao would have a hard time.
Lei Li thought.
If he had a child, no matter if it was a boy or a girl, he would like them all. If Zhou Yi dared to say that he didn't like them, he would beat him until he liked them.
"Would you like to touch my belly?"
Zhu Zhuer laughed as she spoke. "Although the baby is still small and the doctor said he couldn't feel anything, my husband insisted that he could feel it. You should try to feel it too and see if you can feel the baby."
"I?"
Lei Li curled his fingers. "I can't feel it well, right? I just killed a wild boar yesterday..."
Some people think that blood is unlucky and will harm the fetus and pregnant women.
"What's that?"
Zhu Zhuer forcibly pulled Lei Li's hand over and placed it on her belly. "My father is also a butcher. Wasn't it him who raised me, one pig at a time, for so many years?"
"You are the baby's godfather, his god of wealth. If he dares to despise you, I will punish him if he shows up."
"What God of Wealth? You're making me want to give you the two taels of silver I just earned..."
Lei Li and Zhu Zhu'er both laughed.
"How's it going?"
Zhu Zhuer asked, "Can you find anything?"
Lei Li nodded gravely, "I can't feel it, but your stomach feels soft. Have you gained weight? Your face is a lot rounder, too."
"You figured it out, haha..."
Zhu Zhuer touched her face and said, "I don't think it's noticeable when I look in the mirror. My husband also said that I've gained weight a few days ago and that the extra belly fat feels good to touch."
"Yes."
It feels soft.
Zhu Zhuer also has a soft body and smells good, and speaks softly with a smile.
Lei Li thought that if he were a man, he would also like Zhu Zhuer, and would only want to spend the money he earned on Zhu Zhuer and the little guy.
Pausing for a moment, Lei Li looked at the sky outside the window and said, "It's getting late. I should go back with my husband."
"So soon?"
Zhu Zhu'er also glanced outside, then remembered something and hurriedly took it out of the cabinet and stuffed it into Lei Li's hand. "I had some leftovers from making clothes for Yuanbao, so I embroidered some patterns on it for you. See if you like it."
Lei Li looked at what was in her hand. There were a few headbands. They were made of soft cream-colored material and embroidered with delicate little flowers. They were very beautiful and suitable for tying hair.
It just doesn't suit him.
"It's pretty."
Lei Li nodded, but didn't want it. "This material is two taels of silver per piece, and the color suits you and the child. You can keep it for yourself, or cut it short to make a pigtail for Yuanbao."
"I made this especially for you."
Zhu Zhuer frowned and said, "How many years have you been using your hairband? It's still black. You're not that old, so you can use bright red or orange, not to mention cream yellow."
"Really."
Lei Li shook her head. "I like black. It doesn't need embroidery and won't get dirty easily. This material is precious, and I'm afraid it'll get scratched while I'm working."
Lei Li didn't want it in the end.
Zhu Zhuer said that when he came back to the county town, they would go together to pick out the color he liked.
"Don't mention black. I don't like seeing you in black. It makes you look so gloomy... You look so much better in red and blue."
"Let's talk about it later."
Lei Li waved his hand and asked Zhou Yi to get on the ox cart. He walked away at the request of Mr. Zhu and Mrs. Zhu.
Out of the county town.
The ox cart moved slowly along the mountain path.
Lei Li suddenly took Zhou Yi's hand, placed it on her belly and said, "Zhou Yi, do you like a soft or hard belly?"
“……?”
Zhou Yi looked at him hesitantly, "If you want to scold me, just do it directly. There's no need to beat around the bush. It's a bit scary in the middle of nowhere."
