It was just dawn in the morning and Li Changpu had already put on his clothes. He buttoned his clothes and was about to go out. He walked to the bed, then took a few steps back and bent down to kiss Jiang Tingxia on the face.

Jiang Tingxia was still sleeping and felt a little itchy on her face. In a half-awake state, she hooked her arms around Li Changpu's neck and offered her lips.

Seeing her like this, Li Changpu pecked her tender and tempting lips.

Seeing that her eyes were not open and she looked like she had not slept enough, he wanted her to continue sleeping, so he lowered his voice and said, "Okay, you can't leave if you kiss me again."

Li Changpu was held by Jiang Tingxia's neck, very close to her face, and could hear her mumbling like in her sleep.

"Then don't leave, stay at home with me."

Li Changpu smiled, gently put Jiang Tingxia's arm back into the quilt, and kissed her forehead, "I have morning training, you should sleep well."

Jiang Tingxia was too tired. He only heard the sound of the door closing gently and then fell asleep again.

She waited until she had enough sleep before getting up. The sunlight had already shone into the room through the curtains. She opened the window, and the cool breeze from outside blew in. Jiang Tingxia could see the large empty yard outside while standing in the room.

Unfortunately, the yard is bare everywhere and not very beautiful. Even if the windows are opened, there is no nice view.

Jiang Tingxia changed her clothes, walked out of the room, and heard some noise in the house.

Jin Xiaowen, who was in the kitchen, poked his head out.

"Aunt, you're up."

"Yeah, get up. Xiaowen got up so early."

Jin Xiaowen smiled at her and asked her, "I'm cooking egg noodles, aunt, do you want to eat now?"

Jiang Tingxia is used to getting up late and sleeping a little longer. She can't get up early in the morning to make breakfast, so the children in his family usually make breakfast by themselves.

"Okay."

Jiang Tingxia walked towards the washroom, "I'm going to wash my face and brush my teeth first."

After she finished washing, Jin Xiaoyu also got up. She filled a basin of water for her and placed it on a small stool, letting her wipe her face herself.

Jiang Tingxia walked into the yard and was planning how to decorate it when Li Changpu came back.

She was wearing thin clothes, a cashmere shawl, and standing in the yard with her arms folded.

"Is not It Cold?"

"not cold."

Jiang Tingxia just stood there and didn't go into the house. Li Changpu was there too, and she looked at the yard and talked to him.

"Don't you think this yard is too empty?"

"I want to put some flowers."

She thought for a moment and said, "Now is the time for roses and Chinese roses to bloom."

Li Changpu had no reason to refuse, "Okay, whatever flowers you want, I'll get them for you."

When he said that, Jiang Tingxia pointed to the courtyard wall and said, "I want to plant roses there. When the branches climb up the wall, they will form a whole wall of flowers."

Seeing Jiang Tingxia's enthusiastic look, Li Changpu looked towards the courtyard wall she pointed to, with a smile on his lips, as if he could really see the flower wall she described.

Jiang Tingxia became excited and took him to the middle of the yard.

"I want a brick-colored water tank, in which I will plant lotus flowers and put a few goldfish in it."

"There are flower pots over there with all kinds of flowers, so there's something to see in all seasons."

Li Changpu still remembered Jiang Tingxia's words, "I'll build a grape trellis here in a few days."

The two of them discussed it, and Li Changpu bought a water tank and a few pots of flowers. Because the weather is still too cold, in addition to some frost-resistant varieties, mainly green plants are used, so that the yard will not look so desolate.

Li Changpu really found a rose seedling, a very large one. Jiang Tingxia instructed him to plant the seedling against the wall, and then built a simple rack on the wall. When the branches grow up, they will climb up the wall.

But there are no flowers to see even after planting them now, we have to wait a year.

Jiang Tingxia looked at the green seedlings with anticipation, "Next spring, when all the flowers are in bloom, this yard will be very beautiful."

……

During the break, Li Changpu built a grape rack with wood. After putting the wooden pillars into the dug pit, he filled the pit with cement and installed the crossbeams. After the main frame was completed, he stood on the ladder and placed anti-corrosion wooden strips on the top floor.

Mrs. Kong passed by and saw Jiang Tingxia standing in the yard, Li Changpu standing on the ladder, and a pile of wood in the yard. She asked.

"What are you doing? I heard the noise when I passed by from a distance."

Jiang Tingxia called her in and explained to Liu Yuying: "Set up a stand in the yard."

Liu Yuying walked in and found that the yard looked very different. Jiang Tingxia and his family had only moved in a few days ago, and it was not like this when she visited last time.

She praised, "You have arranged your yard very well."

Then he walked over to the bright red flowers and took a look, "How beautiful this flower is."

These were not taken care of by Jiang Tingxia, they were just ready-made flowers.

Jiang Tingxia smiled and said, "Just clean it up, it will make you feel better."

Li Changpu was busy setting up the scaffolding and mixing cement outside the yard. Jiang Tingxia chatted with Liu Yuying for a while. At this time, some curses came from next door.

Jiang Tingxia could tell that it was Aunt Feng next door who was cursing.

"Who the hell is this?"

Hearing the noise, Liu Yuying pricked up her ears.

Aunt Feng shouted her daughter-in-law's name in a very loud voice.

"Magnolia! Magnolia!"

"You come out."

Jiang Tingxia heard the woman let out a sigh, and then the sound of the door opening.

"Mom, what's wrong?"

Aunt Feng was furious and holding a paper box.

“Why are my eggs missing?”

Hua Yulan was cleaning the house. She put the wet rag aside, wiped it on her apron, and walked towards Aunt Feng. She looked at the box of eggs at home and was also confused, "No way."

"How could something good be missing?"

Aunt Feng suddenly shouted, "It's just missing."

"The two chickens at home laid eggs yesterday. I took them back and counted them. There were seventeen eggs in total. I checked again today and there were only fifteen left. Where are the other two?"

Hua Yulan was very helpless to meet such a mother-in-law, who was a miser who would lick the blood of a lice even if it was squeezed out, and lived a very meticulous life.

Since she got married, Hua Yulan has been doing all the housework, but the only thing is that it is her mother-in-law who has to do the work of buying things and making money, so the power in the family is still in the hands of her mother-in-law.

Hua Yulan's job was to do the hard work of cleaning the house, washing clothes and cooking.

My mother-in-law held all the money tightly in her hands, but even so, she was still worried, fearing that my daughter would spend too much money lavishly.

Therefore, the vegetables and grains for daily consumption were all calculated by her mother-in-law. Marks had to be made on the rice jars and oil cans in the house. There was a set amount to be used every day. The meat had to be weighed, and quantifiable items such as eggs had to be counted clearly.

Every day when cooking, her mother-in-law tells her what dishes to cook and what ingredients to use, and she can only do as her mother-in-law tells her.
