Chapter 736
Nanluoguxiang
Cao Wei walked into the room carrying an electric fan: "Sister Cousin Yujuan, the room is stuffy, so I brought you an electric fan. It's not brand new, but it'll do."
Song Cousin Yujuan, who was learning to use a sewing machine from Song Song Yulan, said joyfully: "Wei, this is too extravagant. The room isn't hot, and I don't need this fan. Can you return it?"
In this era, electric fans were not small items. Even if it wasn't brand new, it was worth a lot of money. Moreover, the fan Cao Wei was holding, aside from lacking the cardboard packaging, was no different from a brand-new one.
How much must such a fan cost!
She was already eating and living off Cao Wei; how could she have the face to make him spend so much money?
Cao Wei placed the electric fan on the table and smiled: "Sister Cousin Yujuan, this fan can't be returned because I didn't buy it. It was given to me by a leader at our factory. Just take it and use it. Why be so polite when we're all one family?"
Song Cousin Yujuan said happily: "It was a gift from a leader? Wei, your leaders are really good to you."
Cao Wei smiled: "Sister Cousin Yujuan, how is the sewing machine learning going? We have a lot of cloth coupons at home that haven't been used. Tomorrow is the weekend, let's go to the department store together, buy some cloth, and you can make a few more clothes to practice."
Song Song Yulan smiled and said: "Sister Cousin Yujuan is clever and talented; she's learning very fast."
Song Cousin Yujuan shook her head hurriedly: "I'm not good, not good, I've only been learning for a short while."
Cao Wei said: "Sister Cousin Yujuan, as the saying goes, practice makes perfect. If you want to finish your apprenticeship early, you have to practice more. Listen to me on this. Sister Cousin Yujuan, come with us to the department store tomorrow, and we can also stroll around Wangfujing."
Song Cousin Yujuan was happy in her heart; she had never been to a department store, nor had she been to Wangfujing.
Song Song Yulan smiled: "Sister Cousin Yujuan, then rest early today. We'll go out and have a good time tomorrow."
Song Cousin Yujuan walked to the inner room and picked up little Ping'an, who was still playing with a cloth tiger: "Then you all rest early too."
Cao Wei held the fan: "I'll go test the fan."
They went to the east wing room together. Cao Wei set up the fan, plugged it in, and turned the switch. The blades spun and sent out a breeze.
Song Cousin Yujuan said happily: "The wind from this fan is really cool."
Whether it was at her maiden home or her former husband's home, Song Cousin Yujuan's life had never been wealthy. Having enough to eat and wear was already considered good; how could she afford an electric fan?
Feeling the gusts of cool wind, Song Cousin Yujuan said joyfully: "This fan is really good."
Cao Wei said: "Sister Cousin Yujuan, this fan should blow against the wall, not directly at your head, otherwise you might easily catch a cold or get a headache."
Song Cousin Yujuan nodded: "Mm, I'll remember that."
Cao Wei taught Song Cousin Yujuan how to use it again, and only left after she had learned.
Adjusting the direction of the fan and sitting on the bed feeling the gusts of cool wind, Song Cousin Yujuan smiled very happily and sweetly.
Cao Wei returned to the room and instructed Song Song Yulan: "Don't let Sister Cousin Yujuan always revolve around the child. When you have time, you should also take Sister Cousin Yujuan out more, go to the park or the store to relax, don't always stay cooped up at home."
Song Song Yulan said helplessly: "I want to take Sister Cousin Yujuan out more, but Sister Cousin Yujuan won't go. She says she doesn't like crowded places and just likes being at home."
Cao Wei: "Is that so? Then perhaps that's just Song Cousin Yujuan's personality; she likes quiet."
Song Song Yulan grabbed Cao Wei's hand: "Wei, now that Sister Cousin Yujuan is taking care of the child, can I go back to work at the factory? There's a salary of twenty or thirty Brother Yuan every month."
Cao Wei poked Song Song Yulan's forehead with his finger: "You money-grubber. Fine, if you want to work, go back to the factory on Monday. But you have to think clearly; you have to come back at noon to breastfeed the child. Running back and forth like that is very tiring."
Song Song Yulan smiled: "Hi, what's tiring about that? Isn't it just walking a few more steps? I'm young now, I have to save up more for our son's future wife."
Cao Wei tackled Song Song Yulan: "Then you have to work harder and save more money, because we still need to have a few more sons."
Song Song Yulan struggled coyly: "Hey! What are you doing! We haven't washed our feet yet!"
Cao Wei: "Forget the washing! Right now I just want you to give me a son..."
"Hey! Turn off the light!"
"No rush! Turn it off in a while!"
"..."
Song Cousin Yujuan, who had walked out of the room to pour out the foot-washing water, heard the sounds coming from the inner room and couldn't help but blush. She hurriedly poured the water into the tree pit, ran back to her room with hurried steps, and sat on the bed with a flushed face, her heart pounding wildly.
As someone who had been through it, she naturally knew what those sounds were.
It was just that compared to her past self, Song Song Yulan's sounds were much louder... But thinking about it, Cao Wei was so young and his body so strong, Song Yulan was truly blessed...
Slowly lying on the bed, recalling those sounds in her ears, she closed her eyes with a red face, her hand uncontrollably...
The night passed without incident.
The next day, after breakfast, Song Song Yulan locked the main gate and walked in front, chatting and laughing with Song Cousin Yujuan, while Cao Wei walked behind carrying little Ping'an.
When passing by the Red Star Sihe Academy, the neighbors greeted them warmly. Yan Yan Jiecheng's wife even came up to tease little Ping'an, her eyes filled with indescribable affection.
It was unknown if Yan Yan Jiecheng had a problem; the couple had been married for over a year, but there was still no sign of anything.
Seeing Shazhu squatted at the main gate, staring fixedly at Song Cousin Yujuan, his silly drool almost flowing out.
He wanted to say a few words to Song Cousin Yujuan, but remembering the First Elder's words, and with Cao Wei present, he could only hold it in his heart, squatting at the gate and foolishly watching that beautiful and gentle figure.
Song Cousin Yujuan was beautiful, her personality was gentle and submissive, and her voice was soft like the spring breeze and drizzle of the south. Just seeing her a few times had hooked Seeing Shazhu's soul.
If it weren't for the fact that he still had Qin Qin Huairu in his heart, and that bad seed Cao Wei standing in the middle, Seeing Shazhu would have likely launched a fanatical pursuit of Song Cousin Yujuan long ago...
The mature, beautiful, gentle, and lovely Song Cousin Yujuan was simply his most ideal marriage partner. It was a pity that they met too late; his heart already had Qin Qin Huairu, and this Song Cousin Yujuan was also Cao Wei's sister-in-law.
Sigh!
Fate plays tricks on people!
Song Cousin Yujuan, oh Song Cousin Yujuan!
Why did you only appear before me now!
Why are you Cao Wei's sister-in-law!
If we could have met earlier, how wonderful it would have been.
I would hold your left hand, you would hold my right hand, we would bathe in the sunshine together, stroll the streets together, watch the sunrise and sunset together...
Seeing Shazhu watched the graceful figure gradually moving away, a wave of sorrow surging in his heart, as if mourning his late youth...
Poor Cousin Yujuan!
I fell in love with you at first sight, but it's a pity we have no fate!
My heart already has Qin Huairu; I must shoulder the responsibilities of a man, so my heart can no longer hold another woman. Although you are very good, you came too late. I am already a man you cannot have!
