Yang Ming had an internal struggle before he decided to ask Li Fugui about this matter. He felt extrely conflicted inside, always feeling that he couldn’t bring himself to ask such a thing. Seeking advice on this seed so embarrassing, but for his own sake, he had to swallow his pride. What mattered is that he could win his wife’s love.
Ever since his own attempt to express his feelings was rejected last ti, he had thought about it for a long ti and felt that maybe his thod was wrong. So, he thought about seeking advice, but Li Fugui was the only person with experience around him, which was why he clung to Li Fugui as soon as there was a break.
Finally, having pried the information he wanted from Li Fugui’s mouth, Yang Ming let him go. As soon as the two walked into the house, they heard Xiaoxiao’s voice.
"Why are you two so slow? Dinner’s ready."
The two n sat down awkwardly, neither bringing up what had just happened. This was a matter they both knew, and it was absolutely impossible to share with anyone else.
"Wife, how’s your foot? Does it still hurt?" Yang Ming asked with concern as soon as he sat down.
"It’s fine now, I can walk." Xiaoxiao replied while drinking soy milk.
"Third brother, when did third sister-in-law change her na to ’wife’?"
"Pfft!" Upon hearing this from his sister-in-law, Xiaoxiao spit out her soy milk on the spot. How could she respond to that?
Yang Ming quickly took out a handkerchief to wipe Xiaoxiao’s mouth, asking nervously, "Didn’t choke, did you?"
"No, no," Xiaoxiao waved her hand, pretending to be calm. She was thoroughly embarrassed.
"Third brother, I’ve been wanting to ask since yesterday, why do you call third sister-in-law ’wife’?" Yang Dong kept eating his al, oblivious to the mood, and followed up with the question.
"..." The family was collectively speechless at Yang Dong’s behavior, all of them glaring at him sharply, indicating didn’t he see that soone just choked on his words, and yet he kept asking.
Yang Dong felt the stares of bla were entirely undeserved. "Fine, I won’t ask anymore."
"It’s a special nickna that your third sister-in-law and I have for each other. When you have a wife, you can also co up with a special na for her," Yang Ming explained.
"..." Xiaoxiao didn’t expect that such an embarrassing matter would be generously explained by her cheap husband to everyone.
After this little interlude, everyone continued to eat their breakfast quietly.
Xiaoxiao passed the soy milk to Yang Ming, "Here, have a bowl yourself. You can’t get this at the academy."
"Third brother, you really should drink more of this. Third sister-in-law said, this soy milk is very nutritious. It makes n handso if they drink it."
"Pfft!" Xiaoxiao couldn’t help spouting again, her sister-in-law, was she a codian sent by a monkey?
Yang Ming once again passed a handkerchief for Xiaoxiao to wipe her mouth. After she wiped it, she imdiately explained, "Sister-in-law, you rembered it wrong, I said it’s brain-nourishing for n, right, it nourishes the brain."
After that little interruption, the family started eating again.
Seeing his wife’s reaction, Yang Ming knew it wasn’t what she’d said. He suddenly wanted to know what "handso" ant. So he leaned his head over and whispered into his wife’s ear, "What does ’becoming handso’ an?"
"Pfft!" Xiaoxiao felt that today was not a good day to eat. The third ti she made a ss at the dining table, she was utterly embarrassed.
Seeing the strange looks from everyone, she took the handkerchief to wipe her mouth and then whispered to Yang Ming, "I’ll tell you when we get back to the room."
In fact, the family was not surprised by Xiaoxiao’s third incident at the table. They were used to Xiaoxiao’s antics during als and were no longer surprised.
They were marvelling at Yang Ming’s behavior. Ever since he sat down, he had been caring for his wife, wiping her mouth, peeling eggs for her, handing her this and that. He was acting just like Li Fugui had been towards Xiaoqiu when he was sick.
When did their third brother change like this?
