Marrying My Bestie's Ferocious Brother - He Calls Me His Baby! Chapter 37: The Cold Tough Guy Turns Into a Pure Sweetheart

After the communications soldier left, the entire family compound was still imrsed in shock.

Lin Wan Yi humd a tune as she returned to her room, feeling particularly comfortable.

She opened her space, where the vegetables were growing abundantly.

The tender green baby bok choy, the bright red radishes, and a few plump heads of cabbage.

The most delightful surprise was a few plump mushrooms growing in the corner.

"Today I’ll improve my family’s als for Mr. Gu."

Lin Wan Yi picked the tenderest baby bok choy and mushrooms and also took a few eggs from her space.

These eggs were a size larger than those bought outside, their yolks golden as little suns.

She first washed the vegetables thoroughly with spiritual spring water, then began to prepare lunch.

Stir-fried mushrooms and eggs, stir-fried baby bok choy, and a pot of fragrant white rice porridge.

Soon, the entire house was filled with an enticing aroma.

This aroma was so rich it wafted through the doors and windows into the yard.

Sister in law Qian, who was picking vegetables, couldn’t help but sniff.

"What’s that sll? Why is it so fragrant?"

Li also poked her head out from the house, sniffing intently.

"It seems to be coming from Mr. Gu’s house. What delicious food has this Lin Wan Yi made?"

The two exchanged a look full of jealousy.

Their households couldn’t even afford much at, but Lin Wan Yi seed to live like it was New Year’s every day.

"Hmph, isn’t she just using that enchanting face to charm Mr. Gu?" Sister in law Qian said sourly.

Inside, Lin Wan Yi was serving the last dish.

Three dishes and a porridge, filling the table with color, aroma, and taste.

She took a bite of the mushroom and egg stir-fry, the flavor so delicious her eyes lit up.

Ingredients from the space were indeed different; every bite carried a subtle sweetness.

At noon, Gu Yanshen returned on ti.

As soon as he pushed the door open, he was surrounded by the aroma inside the house.

"This is..." He was montarily stunned, looking at the sumptuous al on the table.

"Quick, wash your hands and eat!" Lin Wan Yi greeted him with a smile.

Gu Yanshen washed his hands, sat down, and took a chopstick full of mushroom and egg stir-fry.

The eggs were tender, the mushrooms fresh, the flavors distinct and more fragrant than any dish he had ever tasted.

He then tried so baby bok choy, crisp and sweet, without even a hint of vegetable odor.

"Delicious." He rarely gave such a complint.

Lin Wan Yi’s eyes curved into crescents: "Then eat more."

After the al, Gu Yanshen obviously felt much more energetic.

The exhaustion from training in recent days seed to be swept away by this delightful al.

In the following days, Lin Wan Yi continued to try different recipes to make him good food every day.

The vegetables from the space kept coming, and her culinary skills improved day by day.

Gu Yanshen’s complexion beca healthier, his body more robust and upright.

Even his stamina during training was much better than before.

That evening, Gu Yanshen ca ho later than usual.

He opened the door and saw Lin Wan Yi bent over the table, writing sothing.

Hearing footsteps, she quickly put the paper away.

"You’re back? The food is kept warm in the pot." She said with a smile, getting up to serve the al.

Gu Yanshen’s gaze unintentionally caught the edge of a paper sticking out from the corner of the table.

It seed to be... ration tickets?

His heart tightened, and while Lin Wan Yi was in the kitchen, he discreetly took a look.

Scattered on the table were so ration and clothing tickets, along with a small cloth bag.

Inside the bag were several crumpled bills, not much in quantity.

Gu Yanshen’s heart sank.

She was budgeting, carefully calculating day by day.

She had made him so many delicious als in recent days, it surely cost quite a bit of money.

Yet she never asked him for a penny, nor did she complain about the hardships of life.

"Dinner’s ready." Lin Wan Yi ca out with the piping hot food.

Looking at the smile on her face, an indescribable feeling surged in Gu Yanshen’s heart.

Such a delicate person as she was, marrying him ant living frugally.

Yet as her husband, he had never taken the initiative to shoulder the responsibility of supporting the family.

"Wan Yi..." He began to speak, his voice a bit hoarse.

"Hmm?" Lin Wan Yi looked up, full of concern.

As the words reached his lips, Gu Yanshen swallowed them back down.

He didn’t know what to say, didn’t know how to express the guilt and affection in his heart.

"Nothing, you eat too."

That night, Gu Yanshen tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep for a long ti.

Early the next morning, he got up earlier than usual.

Taking advantage of Lin Wanyi still asleep, he quietly got out of bed and took a thick envelope from his bag.

Inside was his salary from the past few months and various vouchers.

Since getting married, he hadn’t given her a single cent.

Gu Yanshen tiptoed to the bed and carefully slipped the envelope under Lin Wanyi’s pillow.

After doing all this, he let out a long sigh of relief.

Even though he was not good with words, he could express himself through actions.

He wanted her to know that he would take on the responsibilities expected of a husband.

At ten in the morning, Lin Wanyi woke up, stretching lazily.

She habitually patted her pillow, feeling sothing hard underneath.

"What’s this?"

She lifted the pillow to see a bulging envelope in front of her.

Opening it, she found a thick stack of money and various vouchers.

Food coupons, at coupons, cloth coupons, sugar coupons... everything was there.

On top was a note in Gu Yanshen’s neat handwriting:

"Use this for the household expenses from now on."

Holding the envelope, warmth surged through Lin Wanyi’s heart.

This fool, he could have just handed it to her directly but had to sneak it under the pillow.

So silly yet so adorable.

Imagining Gu Yanshen tiptoeing to stuff the money, she couldn’t help but laugh.

"Gu Yanshen, you big fool."

Clutching the envelope, she rolled on the bed twice, feeling as sweet as if she had tasted honey.

This is her husband, who won’t say sweet words but can express love in the most simple ways.

In the afternoon, Lin Wanyi specially picked the best ribs and mushrooms from the space.

She wanted to make a delicious pot of soup to reward Gu Yanshen.

The ribs were washed clean in the spiritual spring water, the mushrooms sliced thickly, and a few tender slices of winter lon were added.

Simring on low heat for two hours, the whole pot of soup turned creamy white.

The fragrance was so rich it could almost capture one’s soul.

Sister in law Qian was hanging laundry in the courtyard and almost drooled at the scent.

"Where on earth did Lin Wanyi get such good stuff?"

She couldn’t help but peer over the wall towards Gu Yanshen’s house.

All she saw was Lin Wanyi busy in the kitchen with a happy smile on her face.

"Humph, Mr. Gu must be giving her special treats!" Sister in law Qian felt sour with jealousy.

Li also ca out from her house, eagerly sniffing the fragrant air.

"This rib soup slls even better than the ones in restaurants!"

The two won looked at each other with obvious envy and jealousy in their eyes.

In the evening, as soon as Gu Yanshen walked in the door, he was enveloped in the delightful sll.

"Why does it sll so good today?" he couldn’t help but ask.

"I made rib soup for you, have a taste." Lin Wanyi served him a bowl.

Gu Yanshen took the bowl, gently blew on it, and cautiously took a sip.

The deliciousness of the soup made his eyes light up; it was sweeter than any soup he’d ever had.

"Tastes good." He rarely praised anything.

Seeing the satisfaction on his face, Lin Wanyi felt delighted.

"Then drink more, this soup is really nourishing."

Gu Yanshen drank two bowls, feeling warm all over.

Looking at his smiling little wife across from him, a deep sense of contentnt welled up inside him.

This was the taste of ho, the feeling of happiness.

Late at night, Lin Wanyi was in the bathroom wiping her body with spiritual spring water.

The warm spiritual spring water made her skin even fairer and more radiant, glowing like a pearl in the dim light.

Gu Yanshen pushed open the door to wash up and was instantly stunned by the scene.

His entire being froze, and his breath stopped for a mont.

The wife before him was beautiful like a glowing porcelain doll, every inch of her skin perfectly unreal.

"You... why did you co in?" Lin Wanyi hurriedly covered herself with a towel.

Gu Yanshen’s ears turned bright red, and he hastily turned around.

"I... I didn’t an to..."

His voice trembled a little, his heart pounding like a drum.

Seeing his embarrassed look, Lin Wanyi couldn’t help but giggle.

"Alright, alright, I’ll be done soon."
