Chapter 159: Having a Wife Is Wonderful

Just as Fu Mingxue was about to get dressed and out of bed,

the door opened and the culprit from last night walked in.

Qin Wenhuo saw that his wife was awake, so he came over.

“Why don’t you sleep a bit longer? Don’t you start work at 7:30? It’s still early.”

Fu Mingxue shot him an annoyed look.

Now he remembers she has to work today?

Last night, he certainly hadn’t shown any restraint.

Qin Wenhuo felt a shiver run through him at her glare.

The way he felt about her last night and the way he felt now—completely different.

After last night, his heart and mind had become entirely hers.

He was completely smitten with her.

So this is what being married feels like.

It was—unlike anything he’d ever experienced before.

“I asked Mom to make you some chicken soup to help you recover. Drink more later.”

Fu Mingxue’s eyes widened at his words.

She couldn’t believe it.

She was shocked.

She gritted her teeth. “You went to my mom and asked her to make me something to ‘recover’?”

Wouldn’t her mom know exactly what happened last night then?

Qin Wenhuo explained, “I was killing the chicken, and Mom happened to get up and saw me, so I told her you’d had a tough night and needed some nourishment.”

The key point was, he’d killed the hen Fu’s mother had just gotten for laying eggs.

When Fu Mingxue heard this, she flopped back onto the bed,

pulled the covers over her head—Aaaah! She might as well die of embarrassment.

Why didn’t he just announce to the whole world what they did last night?

Qin Wenhuo saw her bury herself under the blanket and couldn’t help but smile.

His deep eyes were full of laughter.

His wife really was adorable—

“Wife, there’s no need to be shy. We’re married, after all. Besides, we didn’t have a wedding night before, so making up for it last night is perfectly normal, right? If nothing had happened last night, that’s what Mom would really be worried about.”

Fu Mingxue couldn’t take it anymore. She threw off the covers, her face bright red, and snapped at him, “Shut up!”

Listen to the nonsense he was spouting.

Seeing how red her face was, Qin Wenhuo didn’t dare tease her any further.

If he really made her mad and she refused to sleep with him tonight, what would he do?

He’d just tasted the joys of life last night—he had no desire to sleep alone again.

“I’ll go outside,” he said, and left the room.

Only then did Fu Mingxue calm down.

She patted her burning cheeks with both hands, comforting herself: It’s no big deal.

Once the heat faded from her face, she finally got up, albeit slowly.

Oh right, she remembered she’d missed her reading time last night.

She hadn’t read, wasting two free hours.

And she’d missed her daily tasks, which would have earned her rewards—

Great. Men really are no good. All they do is get in the way of her making money.

“Son-in-law, when we first arrived, that young Comrade Yang brought us rice, flour, and all sorts of things. I heard it was arranged by Instructor Xie. When you get a chance, pay him back for it.”

“Mom, I know. I’ll make sure to pay him,” Qin Wenhuo replied. “Mom, thank you for all your hard work these past few days.”

“It’s nothing. Oh, and about finding me a job—don’t worry about it. I’ve decided to stay home and take care of the two kids myself. I feel more at ease that way.”

Qin Wenhuo understood what his mother-in-law meant and was deeply moved. “Thank you, Mom!”

“No need to thank me. I really like those two kids, and besides, they’re easy to look after. You know, the first person they called was ‘Grandma’!”

Qin Wenhuo thought that was wonderful. “They may be young, but they know who truly cares about them. They really like you!”"
