When Huo Yunchao saw Xu Ning waiting for him with a lantern at the door of his house, he felt a surge of warmth in his heart. Without saying a word, he rushed up and hugged Xu Ning.
After a long period of getting used to it, Xu Ning had become accustomed to Huo Yunchao hugging her in front of outsiders. She patted Huo Yunchao on the back: "Mr., you have worked hard. Welcome home."
"Daughter-in-law, I seem to know how the general feels after returning from victory."
Huo Yunchao said with satisfaction after holding his most beloved woman in his arms.
Xu Ning was amused by these loving words and laughed out loud. After laughing, she asked him: "Ms., are you exhausted? Do you eat first or wash up first?"
"Wash up first."
Xu Ning turned around to get the bucket, and was shocked to find that Zhou Changxing had already entered the kitchen with the bucket. She froze, and that strange loneliness and emptiness filled her heart again.
"Ning Niang, what's wrong with you?"
Huo Yun realized later that Xu Ning's mood was not quite right. Seeing her lost expression, he couldn't help but become nervous.
"No, nothing..."
Xu Ning tried to muddle through, but she underestimated Huo Yunchao's concern for her.
Huo Yunzhao saw through her disguise at a glance and said bluntly: "Ning Niang, if you are unhappy about anything, can you tell me directly? I have been busy outside all day and I really don't have the energy to guess what you are thinking."
Xu Ning stared at Huo Yunzhao for a long time, and finally summoned up the courage to express her thoughts; "Mr., I am born to work hard, and it is easy to think about things when I am idle. My husband, I am pregnant, but I am not a broken hand." I don’t feel any discomfort even if I have a broken foot. I can do some light work. My husband, am I being hypocritical for thinking this way? You obviously do it for
Make my life better..."
After saying that, she felt that she was being hypocritical and felt sorry for Huo Yunchao.
Frankly speaking, Xu Ning had no objection at all to Zhou Changxing and Qiu Yun. She had not spoken to Zhou Changxing alone, but she had observed Qiu Yun all day long.
Qiuyun has nimble hands and feet, a strict manner of speaking, and is very smooth in dealing with people. He can take care of housework and work in the fields. He is a good hand at home and outside.
The Xu family has a small population, and the main chores at home are feeding pigs, chickens, and cooking. Qiu Yun can do it all by himself.
Xu Ning was idle all day. She really couldn't find anything to do. For the first time, the day felt so long. The only thing she could do was to wait for Huo Yunchao's return.
The waiting time became extremely long, and Xu Ning spent it counting the hours.
God knows how much Xu Ning looks forward to getting dark. When it gets dark, her husband goes home.
When Huo Yunchao heard Xu Ning's inner words, his high-spirited heart fell to the ground: "Ning Niang, you are not being pretentious in thinking so, and you are not pretentious at all. You just haven't gotten used to it for a while, otherwise, After I finish washing, let’s eat and chat, okay?”
Xu Ning grabbed Huo Yunchao's sleeve and asked him in a low voice: "Ms. sir, is it annoying for me to think like this?"
"It's not annoying, not at all. On the contrary, I think you are very cute like this, so cute that I want to take you away in my pocket."
Huo Yunchao didn't just praise him, he leaned forward and kissed Xu Ning. The innocent kiss successfully made Xu Ning blush.
Xu Ning covered her hot face with both hands and urged: "Mr. sir, go wash up quickly!"
"Okay, I'll be out soon."
Huo Yunchao bent down and kissed Xu Ning's belly.
Holding the clothes in hand, she went to the bathroom to take a shower: "Baby, be good, don't make trouble with your mother."
Xu Ning caressed her flat belly and thought to herself: Son, we are so lucky to have met such a good man like your father.
The warm water washed away his body and also washed away Huo Yunchao's fatigue. While taking a shower, he thought about what Xu Ning said. He seemed to be too wishful thinking and failed to take Xu Ning's feelings into consideration.
Huo Yunchao came out of the shower and saw Xu Ning standing outside waiting for him. He sighed softly and asked her: "Ning Niang, is there anything in particular you want to do?"
Xu Ning thought for a moment and shook his head: "No, I just don't want to be idle."
Huo Yunchao asked her: "Do you want to continue making pig quill pens? Together with Sister Xiaocao?"
"Huh? Can I continue to make pig hair brushes?" Xu Ning's eyes were bright, she wanted to make pig hair brushes!
Huo Yunchao smiled and said, "Why not? The pig-hair pen doesn't take much effort. If you really want to do it, I'll tell Father Xu."
"Okay, I want to do it!" Xu Ning only had one day of free time, and she felt like she was going to become a useless snack.
When Huo Yunchao saw Xu Ning smiling again, he couldn't help but feel sad and hugged her gently: "Mother Ning, I'm sorry, I just wanted to let you enjoy happiness and happiness, and I didn't care about your feelings. I will never do this again, I will discuss it with you carefully before making a decision."
Xu Ning said hurriedly: "Mr. sir, don't think so. It's because I don't have the ability to enjoy a happy life. When I'm free, it's like there are ten thousand ants crawling all over my body. I feel uncomfortable."
She really couldn't take any time off, and she really didn't like the feeling of being too leisurely. She always felt that if she continued like this, she would really become a useless snack.
Huo Yunchao let go of Xu Ning and stretched out his little finger towards her; "Ning
Mom, if you feel uncomfortable, you must tell me immediately and we will pull the hook! "
"Ms. sir, you are so childish." Xu Ning complained, but his hand honestly hooked Huo Yunchao's little finger.
The young couple looked at their little fingers hooked together, then looked at each other, and smiled brightly.
After a simple dinner, Huo Yunchao knocked on Butcher Xu's door; "Dad Xu, I have something very important to discuss with you."
Butcher Xu was startled and hurriedly asked Huo Yunchao to come in: "What's the important matter? Is there something wrong with the sweet potato seeds?"
Huo Yunchao shook his head: "No, it's not about the sweet potato seeds, it's about Ning Niang. Ning Niang said she didn't do anything all day long, and she felt very uncomfortable. She wanted to make pig hair pens with Sister Xiaocao."
Butcher Xu refused: "Pig bristle brushes are hard on the eyes. Besides, Ning Niang is stubborn and has to make many pig bristle brushes a day before she stops. I don't want to."
Huo Yunchao leaned over and whispered: "Dad Xu, you have to control the amount of pig hair." Solve the problem at its root.
Butcher Xu's eyes suddenly lit up: "What a great idea! Chao'er, you really deserve to drink a lot of ink."
After discussing the arrangements for Xu Ning, Huo Yunchao made another request: "Dad Xu, there is also the matter of land reclamation. The old patriarch specially waited for me to return home at the entrance of the village, most likely because he wanted to ask me about the land reclamation. Father Xu, please excuse me. Follow me to see the old patriarch."
Butcher Xu agreed simply, but he was very curious: "Chao'er, what do you think the old patriarch would say? Ask us where to open up wasteland? What next?"
Huo Yunchao spread his hands and said, "I don't know either. The old patriarch is a smart man, and smart people will not hold others back when doing things."
"Okay, let's go then."
Butcher Xu thought
I think this is true. The Huo clan can reach its current scale because of the great contribution of the old clan leader. Such a smart person will not hinder Huo Yunchao and cause trouble.
