Mi Xaing 'er's eyes widened. "Yun Jingting, let's be frank …"
Before she could finish speaking, Yun Jingqi came back. She shook off the cold air on her body and closed the door. "Little Brother, didn't you go overboard with your words just now? You even dragged Dad into it! "
Yun Jingting did not turn around, but her voice was steady and firm. "There's nothing to be overboard about. What I said … is what I mean! If Dad wants to help the mother and daughter in this matter, and if he thinks that outsiders are more important than me, then I have nothing to say! I don't need to rely on him to make a fortune! Let's take care of ourselves in the future! "
He paused for a moment and said, "To be honest, I already had a problem with him when it came to Mom! Also, you and Tong Che, and even Mi Xaing 'er running away … I'll say something unpleasant, but he didn't do anything good! Forget it! Let's not talk about it! Where's the soy sauce? "
Yun Jingqi saw that her brother had changed the topic, which meant that he had already made up his mind and could not change it anymore … She did not force him. Even if she did, she could not force him.
She quickly walked to the cupboard and took out the soy sauce. "Here!"
"Put it there!" Yun Laohu said casually. "I have to chop the meat first! Pork has to be chopped to make it more chewy and delicious! "
He put the piece of pork belly Yun Jingqi bought on the chopping board and turned to Mi Xaing 'er. "Don't just stand there. Help me put on the apron!"
Mi Xaing 'er was really speechless … He had automatically positioned himself as her husband and could do whatever he wanted.
She knew that if she wanted Yun Laohu to do what she wanted, she had to be gentle. She did not say anything else, walked over with a smile, and handed the apron to him.
Yun Laohu turned sideways and opened his hands. "My hands are stained with meat. It's dirty. Help me put it on!"
Yun Jingqi looked around. She could not stay in the kitchen any longer. It was like a 2,500-watt light bulb.
She quickly turned around and went out voluntarily … lest her brother chased her out again.
Mi Xiang 'er was a very decisive person. She lowered her head and muttered to herself for a moment. She sorted out her current mood.
Even though she hadn't made any 'substantial' progress with Cloud Tiger that night, the brief physical contact, the conversation, and the way he had reprimanded Shen Xiaofeng … had caused the 'line of defense' she had built to crumble completely.
To put it bluntly, Yun Laohu, in the past, she had married him... But now, she saw that he was even better. Not only was he more, he was more mature and exuded a mature manly aura, he was also seductive.... He was like a walking hormone's hormones, ''s's...'s.... and Yun''s's... and him was be be be.. he. she.. she. and she..... her... be.
...
She couldn't maintain a straight face when she saw him now. The cold and aloof persona that she had prepared had completely collapsed. It was as if the corners of her mouth were always pursed into a slight smile, and ripples were always forming in her heart.
This was probably human nature, right?
Regardless of gender, as long as they were with their lover … IQ, temper, determination, bottom line, and standards could all be reduced to zero.
She knew …
It would be pointless if she continued to pretend!
Then, he leaned against the pool and stared at Tiger Cloud with a faint smile. "Hey, let me talk to you for a while!"
Hey?
This form of address …
She didn't even call him by his full name?
Looks like there's progress!
Yun Jingting looked at her with a smile. "Say it. You can say whatever you want!"
Mi Xaing 'er leaned toward him. "I think … you're a smart person. You can see through many things. I won't be pretentious in front of you! To be honest, I do have feelings for you … but let's take it slow between us. What do you think? "
"Take it slow? How slow? "
"What I mean is … let's talk about other things after I get the results. I know what you're thinking. Didn't you express it clearly to me today?"
Yun Laohu became serious. "Since you brought it up, I'll make you understand! In my heart, there's no such thing as getting back together. You're my wife. You always have been! No matter where you go, no matter what kind of spy you are, it's all nonsense! To me, you're just a woman. A woman who will spend the rest of my life with me! "
Mi Xaing 'er was grateful. She couldn't help but say what was on her mind. "I know even if you don't say it! That's why I … came back. I … can't let you go! "
When Yun Laohu heard this, he immediately pulled her into his arms.
Mi Xaing 'er quickly pushed him away. She gestured to the living room with her hand. Her meaning was obvious: Don't let Second Sister look.
Only then did Yun Laohu restrain herself and take a step back. She scolded softly, "F * ck, I don't have a home. It's inconvenient for me to do anything! Can't I even hug you? "
Mi Xaing 'er pursed her lips. She didn't dare to laugh out loud. She coughed lightly and said, "Let me finish!"
"Say it!"
"What I mean is, let's wait for a few more days. Anyway, we've already waited for so long, right? Let's not let others gossip about us. In my opinion, this matter between us isn't just a secret letter. There are many people in the army, so there will be many opinions. There must be someone else who has the same idea. That's why this matter has blown up! "
"…"
"How about this? I'll go and urge the Redress Committee in a few days. Before that, let's try to avoid meeting each other as much as possible. What do you think?"
Mi Xaing 'er was afraid that he wouldn't agree, so she quickly added, "This matter isn't just for you. It's also for me. I'm in school now. I don't want the task force to investigate me in school. After all, it's not good for my reputation!"
She coaxed him so softly and said that it was for her own sake. Yun Laohu was speechless … In his heart, he didn't care about his own future. His wife's studies seemed to be more important!
He lowered his head and pondered for a long time. "What you said makes sense. It wasn't easy for you to get into a university. I don't want people with ulterior motives to investigate you in school!"
Mi Xaing 'er took advantage of the situation … She had to be gentle when dealing with Yun Laohu. She walked over and straightened his collar. "So, you agree? After we leave this place today, don't come looking for me. Let's endure for a few more days. There's still a long way to go, right? "
"…"
Mi Xaing 'er quickly walked to the chopping board and wanted to end this topic. "Let's not talk about it anymore! I'll cut the meat! "
Yun Laohu followed behind her. "Stand aside. This is tiring work!"
He quickly added, "Don't leave too! Stand here and accompany me! "
When Mi Xaing 'er saw him acting coquettishly, she couldn't help it. She also knew that Yun Laohu was a donkey that had to be coaxed … She reached out and touched his face. She smiled at him. "Look at you!"
Yun Jingting looked back at her and grumbled softly, "You should have done this earlier. Just now, when my sister went out, the two of us could also … do that! Look at you just now. You didn't cooperate at all! You even kicked me! You even kicked your hind legs and wanted to leave like a stubborn donkey! You made me … so uncomfortable! "
After he finished speaking, he picked up the kitchen knife and started cutting the meat.
At the mention of uncomfortable holding it in, Mi Xaing 'er wanted to laugh. She leaned over to him and lowered her voice. She bent down and looked up at him. "Hey, let me ask you something. You stayed in the toilet for so long just now. Did you … Huh?"
"Hiss! Get off me! "Yun Jingting deliberately pulled a long face and elbowed her." You're so annoying! "
Mi Xaing 'er bent over and laughed …
When a man acts coquettishly … sometimes, he was cuter than a woman.
The two of them were cooking in the kitchen and chatting. Occasionally, they would chuckle. Yun Jingqi heard them from the living room. She tiptoed to the door and peeked through the crack in the door …
She saw that her brother was wearing an apron and a white shirt with his sleeves rolled up. The yellow light from the kitchen shone on his eyes, making his features look unusually gentle. Mi Xaing 'er stood aside. She said she was helping, but in reality, she was holding a cabbage in her hand. She was happily munching on it as she talked.
Yun Laohu occasionally looked up at her. His gaze was full of love and satisfaction.
Yun Jingqi had never seen her brother so happy in the past two years. She couldn't help but feel a little teary … She sincerely wished the couple a happy life.
When the hot dumplings were served …
The three of them sat around the table. Yun Jingting was a little excited. "It's going to be the New Year. The dumplings are like wine. The more we drink, the merrier! Sis, let's have a few drinks! "
Of course, Yun Jingqi didn't have any objections … After all, drinking was just for the occasion. Everyone just wanted to have fun. "There really is a bottle of white wine here. Wait! I'll go get it! "
Mi Xaing 'er waved her hand. "Yun Jingting, don't drink anymore. I have to go home later. I won't be able to drive after drinking!"
Yun Jingqi stood aside and didn't know what to do … She thought that they were going to stay for the night. She glanced at her brother awkwardly. Yun Jingting was unusually calm. "Forget it then. Listen to Mi Xaing 'er. If she wants to go home, I'll send her home!"
Look!
Here it comes again!
As long as the couple was together, Yun Laohu would listen to everything Mi Xaing 'er said.
Yun Jingqi sat down again. She picked up a dumpling and took a bite. She clicked her tongue and praised, "Yo, Tiger, I didn't expect your stuffing to be so good! There's a lot of gravy and the meat is tender! "
"Yes! There's a soldier in our cookhouse. His surname is Bian. I heard that his family's dumpling shop has been passed down for generations. I know that Mi Xaing 'er likes dumplings, so I especially learned some secret recipes from him. I'm not bragging, but now that I'm making dumplings … I can basically open a shop! "
Mi Xaing 'er was really touched … Sometimes, there was no need for earth-shattering events between husband and wife. It was just these small daily details that could make one feel the warmth. Yun Laohu was really willing to do anything for her. Such a domineering man was only gentle for her. Which woman wouldn't fall for him?
Yun Laohu looked up at his sister. "Don't keep that bottle of wine. Bring it to Tong Che's later?"
"Huh?"
"Isn't today the day to say goodbye to the old and welcome the new? I made so many dumplings. Send some to him later and have a drink with him while you're at it. Contact him … Huh? " He winked and smiled. "Sis, let me tell you. Sometimes, women are cuter when they're a little drunk. Go there and have a drink with him. Tell him all the things that you don't dare to say usually!"
"…"
"Did you hear that?"
Yun Jingqi didn't answer. She bit the tip of her chopsticks and looked a little absent-minded … In her heart, she felt that her brother's idea might work.
The three of them chatted and laughed as they finished eating … After clearing the dishes, Mi Xaing 'er stood up and said, "I have to go!"
"So early?"
"Yeah!" She pondered for a moment and turned to Yun Laohu. "I want to go to the post office to make a long-distance call!"
In that era, there weren't many places where you could make direct long-distance calls. Most of the time, you had to go to the post office.
Yun Jingting misunderstood and thought that she was going to call her mother-in-law. "Huh? It's so late. It's not convenient to pick up the call at Mom's place! "
Mi Xaing 'er lowered her head. "I'm not calling my mom. I want to call Shanghai!"
She didn't intend to explain in detail and just said half-heartedly, "I've been in Shanghai for the past two years. I have a few good friends there. I want to say hello to them during the New Year!"
Yun Laohu didn't take it to heart. "Okay! I'll send you! I'll also send Sis to the Tong family's place! "
The three of them didn't dawdle. They put on their coats and went out … Yun Jingting drove to the post office first. He wanted to accompany Mi Xaing 'er, but she rejected him. "I'll be back in a while. You and Sis can wait in the car! The road is slippery! Don't go back and forth! "
"I …"
Mi Xaing 'er didn't wait for him to say more. She jogged into the post office, paid the fee, and entered a small isolated telephone booth. She dialed a number. After a few rings, someone spoke in a fluent Shanghai accent. "Who are you looking for?"
Mi Xaing 'er recognized the voice. It was Auntie Liu from the alley. "I'm Mi Xaing' er. Please call me Mom!"
"Got it! Got it! "
"…"
After a while, Xu Jingya's elegant voice sounded. "Girl, Happy New Year!"
"Mom, Happy New Year to you too!" Mi Xaing 'er was worried about her child and wasn't in the mood for small talk. "Mom, how's Fengshou today?"
"Pretty good! With me around, you don't have to worry! "
Mi Xaing 'er took a deep breath and spoke a little quickly. "Mom, I saw Tiger and Second Sis today. They're all fine! I'm a mother now. I only know how it feels to be a mother. The more festive the New Year, the more I miss my child! "
She paused. "I want to see my son now. I'm going crazy thinking about him. Mom, I've decided to bring Little Treasure over. The sooner the better!"
