Chapter 113: Late at night, Su Liyan breaks down in tears, questioning whether her man

Lu Yuan is somewhat familiar with these things.

Lu Yuan handed over everything he was holding to Su Liyan, then walked with his hands behind his back toward Pang Kaige's house.

As soon as he entered the house, he saw several burly men vigorously digging a pit.

Lu Yuan wasn't acquainted with these burly men and didn't know where Pang Kaige had gotten them from.

The imperial capital has many gathering places for migrant workers.

As soon as Lu Yuan came in, Pang Kaige, who was smoking inside, proudly waved at him and said:

"Here~"

Huh?

After glancing, Lu Yuan walked toward Pang Kaige.

Seeing Lu Yuan come, Wang Yulan also quickly fetched him a stool.

At that moment, Pang Kaige leaned on a table, legs crossed, wearing a proud expression as he said:

"Hey, weren't you startled?"

Looking at the exceedingly proud Pang Kaige, Lu Yuan answered with an amused look:

"Impressive, you can also make this?"

Pang Kaige proudly lifted his chin, handed Lu Yuan a cigarette, and said:

"What's so hard about it?"

Lu Yuan took the cigarette Pang Kaige handed him, glanced at it, and exclaimed, "Yo, it's a Denglou brand!"

"Sure."

Today Lu Yuan could also see that the Wang Yulan family was indeed well-off.

Although Pang Kaige's family wasn't lacking money either, he had never seen Pang Kaige smoke such cigarettes before.

Furthermore, today Wang Yulan bought Pang Kaige a leather jacket, which Lu Yuan could also notice.

This Wang Nianjun…

"Hmm… he had indeed taken quite a bit earlier."

However, in that dark environment at the time, it could be considered normal.

At this moment, Wang Yulan also brought out a few apples and a few tangerines for Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan didn't stand on ceremony, picked up an apple, and took a big bite.

Pang Kaige also took an apple, bit into it, and looked at Lu Yuan somewhat smugly, saying:

"Hey, didn't see that coming, did you?"

The night before last, when Pang Kaige went to Lu Yuan's house to eat, he really took a good look at the Kang heating ducts.

He checked the layout and distribution of the Kang heating ducts.

Although the Kang heating ducts are buried underground, don't forget that the cement above them is split into new and old!

The new cement and the old cement are completely different colors.

Pang Kaige is no fool, so he naturally could also see the layout and direction of the Kang heating ducts beneath Lu Yuan's house.

And the four surrounding warm walls, Pang Kaige could also see those.

It's just that a gap was left in the middle, and then heat collects.

He, Pang Kaige, is not just a farmer; he is also a proper second-level worker in the factory, and has some ability.

That evening Pang Kaige started drawing a sketch.

The next day Pang Kaige went to purchase materials and get in touch with people.

This started this afternoon!

Lu Yuan took a drag of his cigarette and then said somewhat amusedly:

"I really didn't expect that."

Pang Kaige then proudly raised his chin and said:

"Tch, you think you're the only one who can do it!"

Wang Yulan beside him was very much giving face to her man, laughing loudly in support:

"Brother Lu, my older brother is also impressive."

Lu Yuan just smiled and remained silent.

The Kang heating ducts are not as simple as just digging a trench.

Each household has its own digging method.

Copying your own home's method won't work, and even if it's exactly the same as your own home, there are still particulars about which parts are high or low underneath.

Lu Yuan actually didn't know whether Pang Kaige understood or not.

The trench has just been dug open; what comes after, Lu Yuan also doesn't know.

However, since Pang Kaige is confident about doing it, Lu Yuan also doesn't say anything else.

As for whether it would anger Pang Kaige if he secretly learned Lu Yuan's technique, that sort of thing.

That wouldn't happen.

Lu Yuan knows many things; would he know about this qi thing?

He really wouldn't; even without a system, relying on the modern memories from his time travel, Lu Yuan would handle things here with ease.

After staying a while longer at Pang Kaige's place, Lu Yuan then leisurely walked home.

After watching Lu Yuan leave, Pang Kaige broke into a proud smile and said:

"He's definitely going to be furious."

Wang Yulan beside him was taken aback, then laughed and said:

「It won't be, Brother Lu isn't that kind of person~」

Pang Kaige listened to his wife speaking to Lu Yuan, feeling a bit unpleasant.

However, Pang Kaige is also not someone who doesn't know right from wrong.

He also knows his wife is just like this—she gets along with everyone and never gossips behind people's backs.

This is what a well-bred young lady is like~

So, he didn't utter a sound.

……

Humming a song, Lu Yuan returned home and saw his wife bending over to make the bed.

Lu Yuan closed the door, drew the curtains, and saw a leather jacket placed on the main hall table.

Su Liyan saw her husband return and immediately smiled, walking over to say:

「Brother, quickly put on the clothes and see if you like them~」

Lu Yuan nodded repeatedly, picked up the clothes and took a look.

Yo~

What is a wife?

What is one's own wife?!

That is exactly what I imagined, and her taste is exactly the same as mine.

This is exactly the style Lu Yuan wanted to buy, not wrong at all!

Immediately Lu Yuan took off his coat and put on this clothing.

As for the size, there's no need to worry anymore.

No one in the world knows better than his wife what size he should wear~

Su Liyan took down the mirror hanging on the wall, held it in her arms, and while showing it to Lu Yuan, asked:

「Brother, do you like this piece I bought? 」

Lu Yuan looked up at Su Liyan and smiled, saying:

「As expected of my wife, her taste is as good as mine; I was actually planning to buy this item today. 」

Su Liyan was stunned, her face full of joy, yet she slightly pouted her little lips and acted coquettishly, saying:

「Not at all~ Brother just knows how to make me happy~」

Looking at his wife so charming and lovely, Lu Yuan laughed loudly, saying:

「Really, there's nothing else; Brother really just wants to buy this one~」

Seeing her husband say that, Su Liyan's joy grew even more; after putting the mirror back on the wall, she blushed and said:

「Brother~ the water is heated~」

Let's take a bath~

……

At eight or nine o'clock at night, the workers at Pang Kaige's house had already left.

And Pang Kaige and Wang Yulan also left their house, locked the door, and prepared to go out.

Now the house is full of pits; the beds, cabinets, and such are all placed in the kitchen room, and for the past few days no one can live in the house.

The two of them planned to stay at Wang Yulan's house.

They will stay at Wang Yulan's house for these three days.

Pang Kaige also couldn't wait to go to his father-in-law's house to mention that they had also installed Kang heating ducts.

The day before yesterday, when leaving Lu Yuan's house, Pang Kaige heard his father-in-law enviously say that he also wanted to install this.

However, at that time two senior leaders had already taken up that time slot before the year, so his father-in-law felt embarrassed to say anything.

He thus thought to wait until after the year, then look for Lu Yuan to ask about it.

Now that he's going to his father-in-law's house, he can finally show off!

Moreover, he can also install a Kang heating duct for his father-in-law's house!

In that case, his father-in-law will surely look up to him even more~

Thinking about going to his father-in-law's house later and showing off, Pang Kaige couldn't help but want to laugh.

After locking the door, Pang Kaige grabbed his things and prepared to leave the backyard; when passing by Lu Yuan's house,

he heard the intense sound of water from inside as Su Liyan and Lu Yuan were bathing together.

Pang Kaige felt a little restless, while Wang Yulan's face flushed red.

「This… this Brother Lu and Sister Su… really… really know how to…」

Wang Yulan looked at the window with the curtains tightly drawn, feeling a bit of longing, and said:

And Pang Kaige glanced at the window, then glanced at his wife.

To be honest, Pang Kaige suddenly didn't want to go to his father-in-law's house anymore.

They had only been married for a couple of days; if they went to his father-in-law's house now, they'd have to sleep in separate rooms.

They wouldn't be able to do anything.

Hmm……

Now Pang Kaige just wants to take his wife to an inn.

But after thinking it over rationally, he decided…

This had already been agreed upon with his father-in-law's side.

He still had to go.

Besides, if they went to the inn, what would his wife do during the day?

Finally, Pang Kaige glanced resentfully at the window, then finally led Wang Yulan away.

Wait!

Wait three days, and I'll make a super big wooden tub like that at home.

Then I'll also take a bath with my wife and play together!

We'll have even more fun than you, Lu Yuan!!

…………

Late night.

Lu Yuan opened the window a crack, stood by the window smoking.

Now is halftime break.

The bright moon, seeing Lu Yuan now completely naked, shyly hid its face behind clouds.

I don't know why, but Lu Yuan feels his condition has been getting better and better these past two days.

Like a war god!

Before, I was always passive, but now, heh heh, I'm actually formidable.

Meanwhile, Su Liyan lay on her side on the bed, covered with a thin small blanket; her perfect figure couldn't be concealed by that little blanket.

"Brother~ just smoke in bed, it's cold outside, don't catch a chill."

Su Liyan, worried that her man would suffer from the cold wind, hurriedly urged.

Lu Yuan turned his head and glanced at his wife lying sideways on the bed, grinning:

"It's fine~"

Su Liyan didn't say anything more.

After Lu Yuan took two big puffs, he tossed the butt out, closed the window, drew the curtains, and chuckled:

"Honey, I'm coming~"

With Su Liyan's soft cry, the second half resumed.

However, today isn't going very smoothly.

Or rather, my wife's mood is a bit low today, as if she has something on her mind.

After one round ended, Lu Yuan leaned against the headboard to rest briefly, while Su Liyan leaned against his chest, silent and sullen.

Lu Yuan originally wanted to smoke another cigarette, but seeing his wife,

he gently stroked her black, shiny hair with one hand, curiously asking:

"What's wrong?"

Su Liyan slightly shook her head, still not speaking.

Lu Yuan froze for a moment, then reached out and patted.

A crisp sound rang out in the room, and Lu Yuan raised an eyebrow:

"If you have something to say, just tell me, brother—why are you hiding it?"

If this were before, when Lu Yuan patted like that, his wife would surely let out a shy coo and nuzzle into his arms.

But this time, when Su Liyan lifted her head, Lu Yuan discovered……

His wife's eye sockets were slightly red, and a line of clear tears instantly fell.

This was the second time Lu Yuan had seen his wife cry.

For a moment, Lu Yuan felt a bit dazed, this……

What's going on!!

I didn't even do anything just now, did I?

Today was supposed to be a happy day, right?

My wife?

When Lu Yuan sees other women cry, he finds it funnier the more he watches.

For example, Gao Xushi.

Every time he saw Gao Xushi sitting on the ground crying for her parents, Lu Yuan was amused to the point of almost laughing out loud.

But with his own wife, Lu Yuan genuinely felt heartache.

And it came completely out of the blue.

Lu Yuan quickly sat up, embraced his wife, and asked:

"What's wrong? Why did you suddenly start crying??"

At this moment, Su Liyan, eyes brimming with tears, looked pitifully at Lu Yuan and sobbed:

"Brother… you… you… you don't cherish me anymore, do you?"

Lu Yuan: "????"

This question left Lu Yuan full of question marks.

Do I still not cherish my own wife?

Others don't know, and even my wife doesn't know??

I pull my wife to bed every night— isn't that cherishing her?

Lu Yuan is practically cherishing his wife to death.

Lu Yuan, looking bewildered, said:

"Where does this come from? How could I not cherish you, brother? I'm practically cherishing you to death—can't you feel it?"

At this moment, Su Liyan's tears welled up more and more, her emotions gradually breaking down as she said:

"Brother, if you cherish me, why… why is it that at the end you always… always bring it out… brother… you don't want me to bear your child?"

These words, Su Liyan had long wanted to say.

But she never felt comfortable saying them.

But as time went on, Su Liyan could no longer hold it in.

Lu Yuan, hearing this, was speechless for a moment:

"This..."

Lu Yuan truly isn't saying he doesn't want to have children with Su Liyan.

It's mainly because...

Lu Yuan really sometimes feels like he's just a child himself.

To be frank, don't think he's doing that well.

Doing so well.

It seems like everything in this household is like this because of him.

But he has to admit, he's really a big baby in life.

Lu Yuan is always taken care of by Su Liyan.

So, Lu Yuan wants to have children a few years later.

Besides, talking about having kids is also a hassle.

He and Su Liyan could first enjoy a year or two of just the two of them, wouldn't that be nice??

After a year or two, then we can talk about it, okay?

Lu Yuan then hurriedly said:

"Of course not, I didn't tell you before? We said we'd have kids a few years later; having kids is so troublesome, and you're still working."

Su Liyan shook her head, gazing pitifully at Lu Yuan, and said:

"But everyone says that if two people cherish each other, they should have a child; I cherish you, so I want to give you a child."

"Moreover, having kids isn't troublesome either; I just like taking care of kids, and even if I'm working, I can have my mother come help take care of the child."

"This..."

To be honest, Lu Yuan really doesn't want children.

But...

Looking at his pitiful little wife.

For a moment, Lu Yuan actually somewhat changed his mind.

Having a child... actually wouldn't be so bad.

What Su Liyan said is also true; anyway... once the child is born, if he doesn't want to take care of it, he could just bring his mother-in-law over to help raise the child, which is indeed...

Furthermore...

If they really plan to have kids in two or three years...

Those aunties in this courtyard... really don't know how to scheme to make him childless!

So, Lu Yuan pondered...

Why not... have a kid first just to play around?
