Chapter 167 Don't let her see
Lu Shi'an, who was under the eaves, saw the two people looking at each other in the courtyard and said in a nonchalant tone, "Brother He and Brother Yu share a bed every night. Haven't they developed feelings for each other?"
He was greeted with a sharp rap on the head.
"Ouch!" Lu Shi'an grimaced, shrinking his head and touching it.
Ye Xiaoxiao looked at the imaginative child with amusement and said leisurely, "Shi'an, don't talk nonsense!"
Upon hearing this, the two men facing off in the courtyard quickly looked away and went about their own business.
Lunch time.
Mother He casually said, "I've been thinking about this lately. Our two rooms aren't enough; we need to build two more."
Upon hearing this, Ye Xiaoxiao recalled being caught kissing He Jing in the room by He Jing's mother that morning, and felt her face start to burn again. She caught her breath and choked on a mouthful of soup before she could even swallow it.
"Cough cough cough—cough cough cough—"
He Jing put down his chopsticks, quickly patted her back gently.
Ye Xiaoxiao waved her hand, her eyes and nose red from coughing, as if she were coughing up her lungs.
After calming down for a while, I realized that the foreign body sensation in my throat had disappeared.
Seeing that she seemed to be feeling less uncomfortable, He Jing continued the topic that his mother had mentioned earlier.
“Mother, I’ve already discussed the house with Xiaoxiao. Xiaoxiao thinks the three children are about to start school, but the village doesn’t have the facilities, so we’re thinking of going to Qifeng Town to see if there’s a suitable house to buy. That way, it’ll be easier for you to buy fabric and embroidery thread, and you can also find out what’s trending…”
Ye Xiaoxiao's eyes widened; it was the first time she had ever heard He Jing talk so much. Moreover, the two of them had indeed mentioned the house before. She remembered that she had just returned home from her clinic and, seeing the busy people in town, she had casually mentioned how nice it would be if she could live in town too.
Unexpectedly, this man had already taken this matter to heart. A warm feeling welled up in Ye Xiaoxiao's heart.
She readily agreed to move to town, as it would be more convenient for her to practice medicine there. The money they had saved was probably enough to buy a sizable house in town; now it all depended on Mother He's decision.
Upon hearing this, Mother He was surprised to find that Xiao Xiao had already made up her mind so clearly, and her affection for her grew even stronger than before.
Since she changed, the family's life has been getting better and better, and there is more and more hope for the future. Many people in the village envy them for having such a good daughter-in-law.
She pondered for a long time, looked at her children, and thought that moving to the town was indeed a good idea, but it would probably not be a small amount of money.
"Mother, don't worry about money. We have money now and can afford to live in a house in town."
Ye Xiaoxiao saw what He's mother was thinking and immediately spoke up to comfort her.
The children's eyes lit up when they heard this; there were so many fun things to do and delicious food in town, hehehe...
Yu Qingchuan also offered to help, saying he knew someone in town who could help keep an eye out for houses.
And so, the decision to move to town was made. Now, all that's left is to find a suitable house.
......
That afternoon, following her sister's instructions, Qian Jinyun went to Wujitang to invite Doctor Xiao Xiao to her home to treat her mother.
Before they even reached Wuji Hall, they spotted a familiar figure ahead. Almost instinctively, he and his men hid behind a nearby stall.
The vendor, seeing the arrogant young master of the Qian family approach, was so frightened he didn't dare breathe, and stammered:
"Young Master Qian, this is just a small business, it's not worth much! Please have mercy!"
Qian Jinyun gestured for silence, took out a string of copper coins from her sleeve and gave them to the vendor, indicating that he should keep quiet.
Seeing their young master's massive figure lurking suspiciously to the side, the subordinates behind him couldn't help but ask, "Young master, what's going on?"
Qian Jinyun turned around and slapped the other person on the head: "Shh! Don't let her see us."
The subordinate looked ahead in confusion, but saw no one else except the pig-slaughtering woman standing by the stall in front of him.
He wondered to himself, when did the young master offend the pig-slaughtering woman? Oh, he remembered, the young master had flirted with her before!
A moment later, Zhao Yun'er disappeared from their sight, and Qian Jinyun came out from behind the stall.
Zhao Yun'er, Zhao Yun'er...
He murmured the other person's name, his eyes suddenly lighting up like fireworks bursting in the night sky.
The fact that both of their names contain the character "Yun" (cloud) suggests that they are destined to be together.
But what should they name their future child?
