The newly married reborn cold-faced boss dotes on his delicate wife

Li Changpu got up early in the morning to make breakfast. Because he was worried about Jiang Tingxia being alone at home, and he couldn't go far to buy vegetables and meat, he just went to his aunt's house next door to buy some eggs.

Frying eggs and cooking rice porridge is a simple breakfast for two people.

After dinner, he thought that the two of them would rest for the morning, and in the afternoon he would go to his eldest sister's village to check on the situation. Her husband was in such a poor condition, and he was worried about his eldest sister being alone there.

As a result, he and Jiang Tingxia were lying on the kang. Just as they closed their eyes and were about to fall asleep, they heard Li Sangou knocking on the door and calling, "Brother, sister-in-law."

"Dad asked you to come over."

Li Changpu had no choice but to get up, and Jiang Tingxia got up reluctantly.

"You don't have to go over there," Li Changpu said to Jiang Tingxia.

Jiang Tingxia has been exhausted during this period, so Li Changpu wanted her to rest more. Besides, if his father wanted to talk to him about something, he could handle it himself, so Jiang Tingxia might as well not go over and get upset.

"You continue to sleep, I'll go over and take a look myself."

Jiang Tingxia frowned and resisted, "It's dark in this room, I'm scared to be alone."

Li Changpu took a look and found that the house had poor lighting. In addition, it had been empty and no one lived in it. It was deserted and eerie.

He said, "I'm not going far. I'm just in the yard. Are you afraid?"

Jiang Tingxia nodded, "Scared."

She said: "This is my first time here. I don't know anyone here. I can't sleep without you."

Li Changpu saw Jiang Tingxia's frightened look with her big wet eyes and felt that she was so pitiful that she wanted to hold her in her arms all the time, love her and protect her.

"Okay, then you come with me."

He smiled, "I'll stay with you for a while when I come back to catch up on your sleep."

……

Li Changpu and Jiang Tingxia walked into the house. Li Ergou was cleaning up the dishes. When he saw Jiang Tingxia, his eyes lit up. Then he saw the tall and strong Li Changpu next to Jiang Tingxia. He became nervous instantly, lowered his head and said nothing, quickly cleaning up the small table on the kang where they had eaten.

Li Wangtian was sitting cross-legged on the kang, rolling a cigarette. When he saw Li Changpu and the others come in, he asked in a fake tone, "Are you here?"

"Have you eaten yet? If not, ask the second and third brothers to get you something to eat."

Seeing that his father and two younger brothers had already eaten and were about to clean the pot, how could Li Changpu not know that Li Wangtian didn't want them to eat, but he still said such face-saving words. Li Changpu was a little helpless, but he was used to such a father.

Li Changpu said indifferently, "I've eaten."

"What do you want to see us over here for?"

After Li Wangtian rolled a cigarette, he put it between his lips, struck a match and lit it, then said to Li Changpu and Jiang Tingxia who were standing at the door, "You two sit down."

He took a puff of cigarette and coughed twice, then said while coughing: "I asked you to come here because I have something to tell you."

"Boss," Li Wangtian said to Li Changpu, "You've been busy outside all year round. All our relatives and friends in the village haven't seen you for many years. They only know that you're doing well outside and have become a leader."

"You have a promising future and bring honor to our Li family. That's a great thing! Dad is thinking that you will stay for a few more days this time. I will prepare a few tables and invite people from the village to have a meal. It will be lively and I can tell everyone that my eldest brother has become capable. Dad is proud and you will also be proud."

Li Changpu sat on a wooden stool with his back straight, his face ashen, and the more he listened to his father speaking, the worse his expression became.

Li Wangtian thought, "Big brother, leave one or two hundred yuan for the family later. I will ask your two brothers to buy food and meat, set up a few tables in the yard, and we will prepare the banquet."

He pointed at Li Changpu and said, "Didn't you and your wife get married outside? You didn't even hold a wedding banquet in the village. That won't do. No one in the village knows about your marriage. So, let's take this opportunity to hold a wedding banquet for both of you."

Li Changpu suppressed his anger and said, "No need."

"We had a party in the army."

Li Wangtian was unwilling and retorted: "That's different. What's done outside is done outside, and what's done at home is done at home."

He turned his head and said deliberately: "You kids did it yourselves. You didn't even inform your family when you got married. If it were the past, your father didn't agree, and the villagers didn't drink your wedding wine, then your marriage wouldn't count."

Jiang Tingxia was sitting right in front of him. As a father, he was talking nonsense and saying in front of the girl that the marriage was invalid. Li Changpu was so angry that he couldn't bear it anymore.

He glanced at Li Wangtian, gritted his teeth, and used so much force that the muscles on his cheeks twitched. His eyes were murderous.

He held Jiang Tingxia's hand and said, "We got our marriage certificate in a formal way, with stamps from the state and the army, so how can it not count?"

"Okay, stop talking nonsense, let's go back."

Li Changpu was about to leave holding Jiang Tingxia's hand, and Li Wangtian shouted anxiously, "What do you mean, the table is not set?"

Li Wangtian was unhappy and shouted at the top of his voice, "When you came back yesterday, your relatives in the village were so happy. A lot of people said they wanted to come and see you. Even your uncle Wu, the town party secretary, said he wanted to come back to see you. This is such an honor. Why would you not want to?"

Li Changpu turned around and left, ignoring what Li Wangtian said.

Li Wangtian was annoyed, and acted like a father, scolding Li Changpu, "You bastard, don't think you are great just because you are a leader. I am your father at all times! How dare you turn your father's face away!"

Li Changpu was filled with anger, "Are you done yet?"

His voice was much louder than usual, and his expression was clearly angry, which scared Jiang Tingxia who was standing next to him.

Li Changpu: "What time is this!"

"Such a big thing happened in my eldest sister's family. The Jin family has already started preparing the coffin. Why are you setting up a feast at home? Why are you joining in the fun?"

Li Changpu's expression was full of confusion and sadness. "After so many years, my sister and I have started our own families. Can you act like a father?"

When Jiang Tingxia saw Li Changpu like this, he stroked his arm and comforted him.

Li Wangtian suddenly felt guilty and his voice became much softer. "Your sister...isn't dead yet. Let's just do what we need to do."

Li Changpu was so angry that he turned around and was about to leave.

Li Wangtian called him from behind again, "I understand. Let's not set up the banquet yet. We'll talk about it later."

He added: "Why don't you keep the money for the banquet first."

Jiang Tingxia frowned after hearing this. Li Changpu's family members were really weird.

Seeing that his son-in-law was about to die, the father-in-law was still thinking about throwing a banquet to add to the festivities. However, it was obvious that his focus was not on the banquet, but on taking money out of Li Changpu's pocket.

Li Changpu looked at his father, about to get angry, but Li Wangtian said in a reasonable manner: "You gave too little money, and the family doesn't have enough to spend."
