Mi Xaing 'er walked out of the bathroom slowly while wiping her wet hair.
Yun Laohu stood by the door and took the towel from her. He did not say anything and wiped her hair seriously.
Mi Xaing 'er lowered her head and looked at the man's long legs. She could smell the faint smoke on his body. She recalled the warmth in the bathroom just now and felt sweet in her chest. She could not help but stretch out her arms and wrap them around the man's waist. She leaned her head against his chest and rubbed against him slightly, acting coquettishly.
Mi Xaing 'er's half-wet hair stuck to his shirt and was slightly cool against his skin. It was indescribably comfortable.
Women felt sweet.
Men felt happier.
Yun Laohu held Mi Xaing's little face as if he was holding the most precious treasure in the world. Her messy, half-wet hair stuck to her cheeks. Her skin was snow-white, her hair was black, and her eyes were misty. She looked even more like a flirtatious little elf.
Yun Jingting felt his heart tighten, and it was filled with an inexplicable feeling. It was a little painful, a little sweet, and a little itchy. For a moment, he couldn't tell what it was. Anyway, he just wanted to hug her and keep hugging her until the end of time.
Mi Xaing 'er glanced at the clock on the wall. It was past three in the afternoon. She felt a little hungry. Perhaps she was exhausted from the bathroom just now. "Tiger, I'm going to cook a bowl of noodles. Do you want to eat?"
"If you're hungry, wait until your hair is dry. Otherwise, you'll get a migraine easily in the future if the wind blows." Yun Laohu grabbed her hand and refused to let go. He insisted stubbornly, "If you're really hungry, I'll go cook the noodles now."
After saying that, he really wanted to walk out.
He …
He still had a leg injury, and he was standing there cooking noodles …
Mi Xaing 'er quickly pulled him back. "Forget it, I'm not that hungry. I'm not eating …"
He sat in front of the desk. "I still have work to do. I haven't finished comparing the two medicine manuals. I've been busy these few days and haven't had time to do it."
He flipped through the book seriously.
Yun Laohu bent over the coffee table and picked up a big red and round apple. She sat at the side and peeled the apple. She glanced at the woman from time to time and saw that her long black hair was still dripping with water, wetting a small part of her shirt. The shirt clung to her round bosom, outlining her exquisite figure.
He narrowed his eyes and smiled. He casually grabbed the towel and wiped the woman's front. Mi Xaing 'er instinctively dodged to the side. "Why did you scare me?"
Yun Laohu raised her eyebrows. "Why? What are you afraid of? Will I eat you up?"
She raised her hand and handed him the peeled apple. "Here. Aren't you hungry?"
Mi Xaing 'er was about to take it, but Yun Laohu withdrew his hand. "Your hands are dirty from flipping through the book. How dare you take an apple? Forget it, I'll feed you …"
He directly brought the apple to her lips. Mi Xaing 'er did not hesitate. She smiled sweetly, opened her mouth wide, and took a big bite from his hand. Her cheeks were round and round, and she was as cute as a little mole. She did not forget to say with a lisp, "It's quite sweet. Try it …"
Yun Laohu's eyes were filled with love. No matter what Mi Xaing 'er did, she was the most beautiful in his eyes.
Looking at the woman's teeth marks on the apple, he took a big bite himself. "Mm, it's really quite sweet …"
The two of them looked at each other and smiled. Although they did not say anything, the air was filled with warmth.
Mi Xaing 'er was probably really a little tired. After reading for a while, her head became lower and lower, and her eyelids became heavier. Yun Laohu sat beside her and fanned her. He coughed softly twice. When Mi Xaing' er heard it, she immediately sat up straight. In less than two minutes, her head drooped again.
This time, Yun Laohu did not make a sound. It was only when Mi Xaing 'er's arms rested on the table, her head tilted, and she fell asleep on her arms that Yun Jingting took out the pen in her hand. He gently combed her hair and sat behind her, fanning her silently.
He just sat there like that, his gaze lingering on the woman's face, not leaving for a moment.
After an unknown amount of time …
Mi Xaing 'er slowly opened her eyes. For a moment, she did not seem to know where she was. Her gaze was a little dazed. When she saw the book in front of her clearly, and Yun Laohu behind her, she smiled embarrassedly.
She wiped the corners of her mouth with the back of her hand. "I fell asleep …"
"Mm …"
"How long did you sleep for?"
“”
She stared with her big round eyes. When the setting sun entered her eyes, they were like two resplendent gemstones. "You just sat here and fanned me. Why didn't you wake me up? Why didn't you rest?"
Yun Laohu smiled faintly. "An afternoon like this is the greatest benefit for a man. To be able to hug his wife, do some exercise, accompany his wife, and take a nap. It's just the two of us together. It's so quiet …"
He reached out his thumb and wiped the corners of the woman's mouth lovingly. "Silly girl, you slept well, right? You even drooled when you dreamed of eating noodles …"
Mi Xaing 'er slapped his hand away embarrassedly. "You're the silly one!"
She smiled sweetly. Her beautiful smile dazzled Yun Jingting's world.
She got up and left in a flash.
Yun Jingting looked at the woman's lively back view and sighed contentedly. He leaned back in his chair and looked out of the window.
Melancholy filled his eyes
The setting sun filled the sky
Time was beautiful
Mi Xaing 'er entered her mother's room. She looked up and saw Tang Xiling leaning lazily against the headboard and reading a book. Fu Bowen was sitting beside her, writing crookedly on a checkered book. Mi Xaing' er walked over to take a look and stroked his hair. "Little Six, you still need to practice your handwriting. You should study more when you have time. Don't run around all day …"
Fu Bowen did not even raise his head and replied with an "Mm". Tang Xiling put down the book in her hand. "You're back. How did the shopping go?"
Mi Xaing 'er sat beside her. "Mom, there's something I want to discuss with you first …"
"Go ahead …"
"Look, we've settled down in the city now. What are your plans for the future?"
Tang Xiling was a smart person. When she saw her daughter's expression, she knew that she already had an idea. "Xiang 'er, tell me first. I'll listen …"
Mi Xaing 'er did not beat around the bush. "This is what I think. We still have to live our own lives. It's not a good idea to always rely on the Yun family …"
Tang Xiling did not wait for him to finish speaking and nodded in relief. "I think so too, but I saw that you just moved in and Tiger was injured, so I thought I'd tell you in two days. In fact, I don't really like living here. After all, this is a military zone. It's not very convenient to go in and out …"
She paused for a moment. "Also, I keep feeling that Principal Shen's eyes are strange. Her daughter also has ulterior motives. She clearly knows that Jingting is already married to you, but she's still so petty. Such a woman can do anything. As the saying goes, don't be afraid of thieves stealing, but be afraid of thieves thinking about you. I think it's better to stay away from them …"
She had analyzed the matter thoroughly. In the end, she was still worried about her daughter.
Mi Xiang 'er disagreed. "I don't have any special scruples about the mother and daughter of the Shen family. I know Yun Jingting's character best. When he's hot, he's like fire; when he's cold, he's like ice. There's no middle ground at all. If he wanted something to happen between him and Jiang Tingting, it would have happened long before he met me, and it wouldn't have dragged on until now. Jiang Tingting will never have a chance. The more she chases after him, the more lowly she seems.
Tang Xiling pursed her lips and smiled. Her daughter's words were full of confidence and drive …
Mi Xaing 'er lowered her head. "I just think that our family can live well outside. Why do we have to live here? I saw Da Ni and Tian Xiner today. Both of them are also in the city. I told them about my idea of looking for a house, and Ni Dahai was willing to help. However, I don't want to owe him a favor. Tian Xiner said that there's a courtyard opposite them, but the conditions are a little bit …"
Tang Xiling waved her hand. "It doesn't matter if the conditions are good or bad. I've lived in all kinds of conditions before. In the past, many people were squeezed into one room in the shelter. Didn't I come here too? To me, as long as our family is together and we're free and happy …"
Mi Xaing 'er nodded. "I think so too. Then, Mom, let's go look for a house as soon as possible …"
"Okay, you decide. We can move anywhere. But have you discussed it with Jingting?"
"I mentioned it casually before, and I didn't take it too seriously. I'll tell him in detail after I've found a place. If he's not willing to move …"
Tang Xiling pursed her lips firmly. "Jingting will follow you. I know what kind of person he is. That's why I'm not worried about you and let you come to the city with him. He's sincere to you and treats you like a treasure. He's worried about you wherever he goes, and he's willing to take you along with him wherever he goes. Mom still says the same thing. You've married a good man, so you have to know how to cherish him and live a good life with him. You should have a child as soon as possible …"
Mi Xaing 'er quickly glanced at Fu Bowen. "Mom, don't say anything in front of Little Six …"
Only then did she ask him in a low voice, "Fu Bowen, if we move out and the conditions here are not as good as here, will you be unhappy?"
Fu Bowen bit the end of his pencil and rolled his big eyes. "Why would I be unhappy? I don't have a home to begin with. It was you guys who took me in. Wherever you guys go, I'll go. I'll never be separated from you guys."
"Then it's settled. Let's go look at the house tomorrow …"
“”
Mi Xaing 'er did not like to drag things out.
The next morning …
Sure enough, she brought Tang Xiling and Fu Bowen to look at the courtyard.
She first went to Tian Xiner's residence to greet her. Coincidentally, Tong Che was also there. He was standing in the kitchen cooking porridge. When he saw Mi Xaing 'er, he narrowed his eyes. Even though he was holding a spoon, he still looked elegant and suave. "Xiao Mi, why are you here?"
He turned his head and raised his voice. "Xiner, come and take a look …"
Tian Xiner lifted the curtain and rushed out like a gust of wind. When she saw Mi Xaing 'er, she jumped up in joy. "You came to see me so soon? Did you miss me?"
Tong Che smiled. "This girl … I really don't know what to do. Xiner, can't you control your emotions?"
Tian Xiner retorted disapprovingly, "Why should I control my emotions? If I'm happy, then I'm happy. If I'm unhappy, then I'm unhappy. I can do whatever I want. Why should I hold myself back?"
Mi Xaing 'er liked her straightforward attitude. She raised her voice and agreed. "Yes, you're right!"
Tong Che took half a step back and raised his hands. "Okay, okay. I won't argue with a woman. Whatever you say is right. Will that do?"
His canine teeth were exposed at the corner of his lips. The vicissitudes of life on his face instantly disappeared, and he looked a little mischievous.
He raised his hand and pointed to the house. "Go in and have a seat. I'll be right there."
He turned around and lowered the fire. After washing his hands, he entered the house. He did not sit down. Instead, he stood by the door and casually said, "Xiao Mi, did you bring Auntie here for something?"
"Yes, I want to take a look at the house opposite. If possible, I want to rent it. We can be neighbors and take care of each other."
Tong Che frowned curiously. "I heard from Xiner that you're not staying at Uncle Yun's house now?"
It seemed that Tian Xiner had already told her brother everything that had happened yesterday.
Li Xiang 'er nodded. "I'm staying at the military base. However, I don't think it's very generous, so I thought of moving out."
Tong Che was a smart person. He did not ask any more questions. "Then I'll help you get the keys from the landlord. He also lives in this alley."
Mi Xaing 'er followed him. "Then let's go together."
They met the landlord and had a simple discussion about the situation. Then, they went to take a look at the house. When the courtyard door opened, Mi Xaing 'er looked around. It was clean and tidy. There were three large tile-roofed houses, a small courtyard, a warehouse, a kitchen, and a small toilet at the back of the house. This was considered pretty good for a bungalow in that era. At least they did not have to go to the public toilet.
However, compared to the conditions in the military base, it was a far cry.
She chatted with Tang Xiling in a low voice for a while. Both mother and daughter were satisfied with the house. They negotiated the price with the landlord, and it was basically settled. However, they did not set a specific date for moving in. They still had to respect Yun Jingting's opinion.
Tian Xiner was really happy. She did not have any friends in the city. Suddenly, the Mi family was living next door. She would not be lonely in the future. How could she not be happy?
She followed behind them and asked, "Do you still need anything? Is there anything you need my brother and me to help you with?"
Tang Xiling liked her innocence and enthusiasm. She also admired Tong Che's elegance and knowledge. She secretly thought that it was not bad to have such a neighbor.
Mi Xaing 'er returned to the military base.
She told Yun Jingting about this matter. "You said before that you would not object to me living wherever I wanted to."
Yun Laohu looked up at her and said, "Yes, I did say that."
Mi Xaing 'er could not tell anything from his expression. This man was too introverted. He was the same as Tong Che. Very few people could truly understand their inner thoughts.
She tilted her head and asked directly, "So, what exactly are you thinking? I don't mean to force you. If you want to live in the military base, I will still stay and take care of you. Let my mom and the others move in first. I will go after you return to the military base."
Yun Jingting crossed his arms in front of his chest and replied nonchalantly, "I still stand by my words. You make all the decisions at home, and I'll listen to you. No matter where you want to go, I'll definitely follow you. Home is where you are."
He added softly, "Don't worry. I will talk to Dad and tell him that I want to move out. As for the date, just give me a date."
This man!
What else could Mi Xaing 'er choose?
She could only walk over and quietly snuggle into his arms and offer her lips gently. This gentle "benefit" was the greatest reward for Yun Laohu.
During dinner …
The family sat together. Jiang Tingting also came. Regardless of whether she was popular or not, as long as she could see the person she liked, she would definitely be shameless.
After dinner, Yun Jingting said formally, "Dad, Sister, I have something to announce to everyone. I want to move out. I have already asked Mi Xaing 'er to find a house outside."
The moment he said this, the house fell silent instantly.
Yun Jingqi knew very well that this was his sister-in-law's idea.
He quickly glanced at Mi Xaing 'er. He admired her ability to control her younger brother. Yun Laohu was a stubborn person, but he listened to his wife's words. Not only did he listen to her, but he also cared for her. No one else could do this.
She was also a smart person. She did not try to persuade him. She knew that it would be useless.
Of course, Yun Mocheng also understood his son's temperament. Since he had already said it, there should be no room for negotiation. However, he still wanted to fight for it. "Tiger, is there anything wrong with that place? Tell me, I can …"
"No, it's quite good at home. Dad, it's because of me. My mother-in-law is not in good health. The doctor advised her to go out more every day. It's not convenient in the military, so I decided to move out …"
Ah …
It's because of his mother-in-law!
Love me, love my dog!
Jiang Tingting was boiling with jealousy. "Third Brother, you are an injured person now. It should be others who accommodate you, not you who take care of them!"
Yun Jingting turned his gaze to her and snorted coldly. "I am willing to take care of them for the rest of my life!"
Jiang Tingting saw that there was nothing she could do to change the situation. She rolled her eyes. "Then where are you staying? Are there enough people to take care of you?"
