Chapter 692

Women are really strange creatures!

Getting angry just like that!

Changing their faces just like that, catching people off guard.

In the past year or two, this was the first time he had seen her throw a tantrum like this. She had been spoiled by him!

Really, it's a pity he was so hardworking just now!

Ye Yaodong slandered in his heart, then pulled two chopsticks out of the chopstick cage on the table, intending to eat the noodles first, and then go into the room to have a good talk with her. How could she lose her temper so casually?

He was already so excellent. Even if she didn't serve him like a master, she shouldn't be throwing a tantrum at him. He had to discipline her!

The longevity noodles in the bowl in front of him were full of color, fragrance, and taste, with a lot of ingredients, covering the entire large bowl. Two sunny-side-up eggs were pressed underneath, and green scallions were scattered on top, making people's appetite increase greatly.

Ye Yaodong slept from noon to midnight and then exercised vigorously again, so he was already hungry. His appetite was greatly stimulated. He fished out the noodles from the bottom, took a big slurp, and then picked up the side dishes.

He didn't know if this meal counted as a midnight snack or dinner, but anyway, he ate to his heart's content, even drinking the soup at the bottom clean, and even let out a full hiccup.

He lifted his clothes and patted his stomach. "Full and satisfied, continue to fight!"

Afraid that the wooden stool under his butt would make too much noise when he got up, he rotated his body 180 degrees before standing up, walking towards the bedroom door with high spirits, and closing the lights in the main hall on the way.

At this time, Lin Xiuqing was still sulking, pulling the quilt over her head and wrapping herself up tightly. Hearing the movement of him entering the room, she remained motionless and ignored him.

Ye Yaodong took off all his clothes, wearing only his underpants, and climbed onto the bed lightly, wanting to wake the children, but the bed board still made a small squeaking sound.

He lay down beside Lin Xiuqing, watching her amusingly wrap herself from head to toe, sulking, and hugged her whole body, quilt and all, into his arms.

"What are you sulking about? Why are you throwing a tantrum at me? If you're unhappy, just scold me a few times, isn't that enough?"

Lin Xiuqing remained motionless and silent.

"If you want to go to work, then let's go to work. It's fine to go with the child on your back, as long as you don't feel tired."

"Don't I feel sorry for you? How great it is to count money at home, mastering the lifeline of our family, the power of life and death, ordering people around. If you want to scold me, scold me; if you want to hit the children, hit the children. How great~"

Lin Xiuqing originally didn't want to pay attention to him and was prepared to give him the cold shoulder for a while longer, but who knew she couldn't hold it in after he said this, and she trembled twice under the quilt.

Ye Yaodong chuckled, becoming even more energetic, reaching out and touching directly into the quilt.

"Why don't you hit me twice now? Anyway, do whatever you want. I won't say anything, is that okay? Where is it, where did you hide your hand?"

Lin Xiuqing was annoyed by his groping. Clearly, her hands were holding the sheet above her head, yet he was still touching her body, looking for her hands. Looking for her ghost...

"Are you annoying? Hurry up and go to sleep!" She pulled the sheet off her head gloomily, then turned her back.

Ye Yaodong followed the snake up the stick, shamelessly sticking to her. "Then tell me, why are you angry?"

She pushed him twice with her elbow, but couldn't break free from him and was hugged even tighter. Gloomily, she had no choice but to close her eyes and pretend to sleep.

"Is it because I said I didn't want to work, so you're angry?"

Hmph hmph...

"I just said that, how could I not work? I have to support the family and shoulder the responsibility of being the head of the household. If I don't work and don't earn money, where would you get the confidence to scold people? If I earn more money, you'll have more sense of accomplishment when you scold me..."

Lin Xiuqing couldn't hold it in anymore, laughing and patting the hand wrapped around her waist twice. "You just have a mouth, talking nonsense to coax people all day long."

"Only if I can coax people will you be happy, and only then can my days be better."

He had long forgotten that he was slandering outside just now, thinking about disciplining this woman properly. At this moment, he was coaxing people timidly.

"Saying it as if it's true, isn't it all up to you? If you want to buy small appliances, you buy small appliances; if you want to go to Zhejiang Province, you go to Zhejiang Province; if you want to buy a big boat, you buy a big boat. Is there any big or small thing in the family that isn't up to you?"

"How can that be? I've always informed you beforehand. Appliances are small things, but other big things are all up to you. I only did it after you agreed."

"You did it even when I didn't agree."

"How can that be? I never go against the wishes of women. Every time it's mutual consent. You just hugged me so tightly, your nails almost dug into my flesh... hiss... it hurts..."

Why do you like pinching people so much now? His old waist, hiss~

"Stop talking nonsense, go to sleep."

"Do you want to do it again? I'm full, and I feel like I'm full of strength again."

Lin Xiuqing had no choice with him. "If you keep nagging, I'll block your mouth with your smelly socks!"

The crisis has been averted, and it's safe to rest.

Ye Yaodong listened and let her go, lying to one side with his hands behind his head.

A harmonious family atmosphere is more important than anything else, which is beneficial to the physical and mental health of the whole family. What does it matter if he sacrifices a little? Coaxing his wife isn't shameful. When his wife is happy, the whole family is harmonious.

Otherwise, crying with a face all day long, smelling with a face, the good feng shui would be ruined.

The two lay quietly for a while, neither speaking, but the atmosphere wasn't awkward or strange at all, quite harmonious.

After a while, Lin Xiuqing said, "Mom secretly told me while eating dinner tonight that she and Dad will save up some money this year and give it to us at the end of the year to subsidize our purchase of a big boat. She told me not to tell the sister-in-law and second sister-in-law, as they didn't buy a boat, so she wouldn't give them money."

"Hmm?"

People are prone to drowsiness when they are full. Ye Yaodong was already lying there in a daze, and he became a bit awake when he heard this.

"When did my mother become so generous and understanding?"

Lin Xiuqing said with a smile, "Hasn't Mom always been quite good? It's just that she has a sharp tongue but a soft heart. In the past, she was poor and could only be stingy, saving more money and spending less."

"When we hadn't separated the family, there was no money, and she never asked us for money. All the money of each room was collected by themselves. The whole family ate and drank hers, and she never threw a tantrum."

That's true. He had to admit that his mother was quite clear-headed, just that her mouth was a bit bad and her temper was a bit impatient.

"Yeah, she never threw a tantrum at any of you, the firepower was all directed at me."

"Isn't that all self-inflicted?"

"Alright, then how did you reply?"

"What else could I reply? I just told her no need. By the time the boat is delivered next year, we should be able to save enough money barely. If we can't save enough, it shouldn't be much of a difference. I told her we'll talk about it then, no rush."

Ye Yaodong turned over, hugged her in his arms again, and responded softly.

"You decide. If they sincerely insist on giving it, then you accept it. Anyway, we won't be short of filial piety in the future. We'll just give a bit more than the eldest brother and second brother later and pay it back slowly. Anyway, they're only in their 50s, and there's still a long way to go."

"We'll talk about it then. The boat hasn't even appeared yet, and we have to wait until next year. It's a bit early to talk about this now. It's just that Mom mentioned it to me today, and you were sleeping and didn't know, so I wanted to mention it to you."

"Taking advantage of Little Nine's first birthday, so she wants to say some nice things. Let's talk about it when she really gives it."

He closed his eyes again.

"Yeah, also, you still have to go to the old house tomorrow to help renovate the old house. The sister-in-law also wants to raise pigs this year, and plans to raise them in the old house with the second sister-in-law, so as not to have to build a pigsty here, which is smelly."

"Then don't we have to knock down half the wall of the room near the backyard? And block the door in the room by the way?"

"That's what I heard them say at night. Anyway, there are so many empty rooms in the old house, and no one lives there. There's nothing in the room, and the house is old. It's nothing to take another room to raise pigs, and the room that was knocked down was the one the sister-in-law and the others originally lived in."

"Hmm, let them toss if they want to toss, as long as Mom and Dad have no opinion."

"What can Mom and Dad say? They want to raise pigs, they can't stop them from raising them, right? And they didn't ask them to help raise them."

"Ignore them, anyway, we don't raise them. When the chickens and ducks hatch, we'll hatch a few more, and we'll raise more chickens and ducks. Anyway, there are plenty of small fish and shrimp, and they are easy to raise if you just feed them casually."

Ye Yaodong became mumbled as he spoke, and he was about to fall asleep again.

Lin Xiuqing wanted to say a few more words to him, but hearing his voice mumbled, as if he was about to fall asleep, she felt a bit depressed again.

Why is he so easy to sleep? He just woke up not long ago. Is he really too tired recently?

Hearing the breathing beside her become even, she had no choice but to shut up, cover the children beside her with the quilt, and close her eyes to sleep.
