A foreign city, dear you

But his uncle didn't listen to him, and kept asking: "Cao Xueqian, what did you do? You can't take care of your own mother-in-law? How could your mother-in-law treat your mother like that? How could her heart be so cruel... "

Although he had had a premonition, Cao Xueqian's expression changed after hearing this.

He put down his chopsticks and stood up straight. After his uncle finished speaking, he retorted righteously:

"Uncle, first of all, I respect you as an elder, and again, I thank you for taking care of us so much. However, today I want to point out that you are wrong in this matter.

“First, this is our family matter and outsiders should not interfere;

"Secondly, it is difficult for an upright official to settle household affairs, and you cannot judge right from wrong based on one word; "Thirdly, please respect Ye Lian, she is my wife, and I will not allow others to underestimate her. To underestimate her is to underestimate me;

"Fourth, I know what kind of person Ye Lian is. I don't need you to teach me what to do..."

"You..." The uncle didn't expect that Cao Xueqian would show no mercy to him on the phone, and would block him out. He was so angry that he hung up the phone without saying a few words.

Hang up, hang up, Cao Xueqian couldn't ask for it, he didn't like his uncle's aggressive tone.

Gratitude is kindness, and being gracious does not mean that you can ignore right from wrong, or that you can point fingers.

Cao Xueqian thought there would be other calls, but to his surprise, there were none.

Cao Xueqian returned to the dinner table.

Ye Lian put a few vegetables into Cao Xueqian's bowl. She was admired and moved by Cao Xueqian's words just now.

He actually dared to protect her like this in front of the elders, and used his firm and clear attitude to build a safe fence for her in her husband's house.

Ye Lian was very grateful to Cao Xueqian for protecting her and being kind to her, and she couldn't help but lose some of her hatred for Grandma Lanshan. After all, Grandma Lanshan was Cao Xueqian's mother.

Grandma Lanshan originally wanted to put pressure on Ye Lian through Cao Xueqian's uncle, but she didn't expect Cao Xueqian to resolve it with just a few words.

Grandma Lanshan felt that she was bored, embarrassed and helpless. She didn't expect that her son would be so determined to defend his wife.

She said nothing more, knowing that it would be useless. Thinking of his behavior in the morning, it was indeed excessive. If Ye Lian lost her job like Cao Xueqian said, she couldn't bear it.

Forget it, according to the situation, you won't get much benefit from making trouble. It's better to find a chance to step down.

The tense atmosphere at the dinner table was slowly dissolving...

……

When going to bed at night, Ye Lian felt filled with self-blame when she remembered that Cao Xueqian had asked for leave because of the farce between himself and Lan Shan's grandmother.

"Qian, I'm sorry. I didn't handle the relationship with your mother well. It caused you trouble." Ye Lian was very apologetic.

"Fool, if these misunderstandings are not eliminated, they will break out one day." Cao Xueqian comforted Ye Lian.

"Thank you for protecting me today." Ye Lian looked at Cao Xueqian with gratitude and admiration.

"I am your husband, who will protect you if I don't protect you? You are my wife, who will I protect if I don't protect you?" Cao Xueqian's words were sweet and convoluted.

Ye Lian smiled. After last night's quarrel and today's farce, she finally smiled again.

"Mom has some old ideas and is suspicious, so you shouldn't be like her." Cao Xueqian saw Ye Lian's mood getting better and took the opportunity to persuade her.

"Well, I won't do it anymore." Ye Lian was as cute as a little rabbit.

"I'll apologize to my mother tomorrow. She just wants to save face. Besides, it's hard for her to help Shanshan do housework every day." Cao Xueqian looked at Ye Lian, he was afraid that Ye Lian wouldn't agree.

"I know. I am a junior, I should stand down." Ye Lian had no objection.

Cao Xueqian was so happy that he kissed Ye Lian on the face.

Ye Lian was happy in her heart, but pretended to be angry and wiped away the drool left by Cao Xueqian on her face.

"You still dislike me?" Cao Xueqian said, deliberately trying to get closer.

Ye Lian quickly covered his mouth with her hand.

Ye Lian still had something on her mind and was hesitant to talk about it.

"Do you have anything else to say to me?" Cao Xueqian asked, looking at Ye Lian's hesitant expression.

"Aren't you angry about the relationship between me and Teacher Xie?" Ye Lian looked into Cao Xueqian's eyes and made up her mind to ask what was in her heart.

After hearing this, Cao Xueqian hugged Ye Lian to his chest and said sincerely: "It's okay to be jealous, but why should I be angry? You didn't do anything wrong. It's normal for Teacher Xie to like you. It's his Freedom. Just pay attention to your own propriety,"

Cao Xueqian paused and then said: "If I were him, I would also like you. Fortunately, I met you a few years earlier than him. Otherwise, he would have become me, and I would have become him."

"Do you think Teacher Xie likes me and you still protect me?" Ye Lian asked.

"Why don't you protect you? He likes you and I have to protect you even more, making you even more inseparable from me."

As Cao Xueqian spoke, he couldn't help but hold Ye Lian tighter and whispered in her ear: "Lian, you are mine, don't leave me."

Ye Lian was so hoops that she almost couldn't breathe.

She raised her head and saw Cao Xueqian's worried expression. She couldn't help but burst into laughter and shouted, "Let me go."

"Don't let go. I'm afraid you'll run away if I let go."

Ye Lian struggled in vain twice, and her hands were like two cute little drumsticks, beating Cao Xueqian's chest: "Oh, let go."

Cao Xueqian was afraid that the hoop would hurt Ye Lian, so he let go.

"Do you really think Teacher Xie likes me? But is he that stupid? He clearly knows that I am married and have children?"

"You're stupid. Emotions are something that can't be explained. It just comes. How can you always be so rational?"

Ye Lian listened and froze in doubt.

Cao Xueqian didn't give Ye Lian time to be stunned. He gently hugged Ye Lian into his arms and turned off the light.

In the gentle darkness, the murmur of love came:

"Lian, I love you."

"Lian, you are mine and will always be..."

……

The soft murmur was accompanied by the squeaking of the bed board and Ye Lian's low breathing...
