Su Xiaoxiao came to the bedside and handed a cup of hot tea to Wei Ting, “Are you thirsty?”

Seeing that Wei Ting didn’t speak, she handed him a plate of egg yolk pastry that was on her right hand and said, “Are you hungry? Are your shoulders sore? Does your back hurt?”



-Egg yolk pastry

Listening to this familiar dialogue, Wei Ting simply didn’t ask if she had a request anymore. Instead, he said straight to the point, “What? You want to use me again and then throw me away after you use it?”

“You learned how to conclude your experience ah……”

Su Xiaoxiao muttered in a muffled voice.

She smiled slightly, then she put down the snacks and the hot tea, and patted him on the shoulder. The two of them seemed like good brothers, and said, “Just look at you, what are you talking about?”

Wei Ting said lightly, “Human words.”

Su Xiaoxiao: “……”

Su Xiaoxiao smiled and said, “I won’t disregard you anymore! I promise that I won’t throw you away this time! Such a handsome husband like you, I didn’t even taste you enough. How can I be willing to throw you away!”

Just listen to this….. These words were not from what a good family’s girl would say.

Wei Ting choked on her shameless and bold words, he gritted his teeth and said, “What kind of nonsense that you think in your head all day long!?”

Su Xiaoxiao said seriously, “I don’t allow you to say that about yourself!”

Wei Ting: “……”

In fact, Su Xiaoxiao’s purpose was very simple, that was to ask We Ting to write couplets.

Su Xiaoxiao smiled and said, “Isn’t it going to be New Year soon? How festive it is if we have two pairs of couplets!”

Wei Ting said coldly, “I don’t want to write it now, I will write it tomorrow.”

Su Xiaoxiao hurriedly said, “Just write it today, write it today!”

Wei Ting asked, “Why does it have to be today?”

Su Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes and said, “Because…… Today is the little new year*?”

*Little New Year (小年) : also known as the Festival of the Kitchen God, is a festival in the traditional lunisolar Chinese calendar. It honors the Kitchen God and takes place roughly a week before the Chinese New Year.

Wei Ting chuckled and said, “I think it’s because you made a bet with someone, right?”

Su Xiaoxiao blinked and said, “Errr.….. You already know it?”

Could I possibly not know? With such a loud voice of Su Ergou, even someone from the neighboring village could also hear it.

The harsh words had already been said by Su Ergou, which made Su Xiaoxiao in a dilemma now. If she couldn’t get a couplet, then she would lose her reputation so badly.

“Are you going to write or not?”

“No.” Wei Ting refused.

Su Xiaoxiao narrowed her eyes dangerously, “Really… You don’t want to write it?”

Wei Ting said indifferently, “I have said that I won’t write it, then I won’t write it.”

Su Xiaoxiao put her hands on her hips, and said, “You really want to see me get embarrassed, don’t you? Don’t forget, you are my husband! If I lose my reputation, then you will be impacted!”

Wei Ting said calmly, “I don’t care.”

Su Xiaoxiao: “……”

While Su Xiaoxiao was gnashing her teeth, someone knocked on the back door of the kitchen.

Su Xiaoxiao thought that it was Mrs. Wu who was coming over, so she glared at Wei Ting, and turned around to open the door.

Unexpectedly, Su Jinniang was the one who came.

Su Jinniang was wearing brand-new pink cotton padded clothes with a white embroidered coat. Honestly, her clothes were not in a soft pink color. It was the kind of color that was very tricky with skin tone.

If the base color was slightly darker, it would appear dull and tacky.

Fortunately, Su Jinniang’s face helped the clothes to shine.

She was not called a flower of the whole village for nothing.

“Why do you come to my house?” Su Xiaoxiao asked indifferently.

She didn’t think that she and Su Jinniang could have any interaction in private. Su Jinniang suddenly came to the door, showing that she had an ulterior motive.

Su Jinniang glanced towards the courtyard and the main room and said, “Are you…… the only one in your house?”

“Who are you looking for?” Su Xiaoxiao was straightforward, and she didn’t bother to exchange pleasantries.

Su Jinniang’s eyebrows frowned. Didn’t know whether it was because she didn’t like Su Xiaoxiao’s attitude or for some other reason.

“For you.” Su Jinniang uncovered the cloth on the basket and handed a roll of red paper to Su Xiaoxiao.

Su Xiaoxiao unfolded it to take a look, and unexpectedly it was a pair of couplets.


-Couplets

Su Xiaoxiao looked at her strangely, “Su Jinniang, what do you mean with this?”

Su Jinniang said, “Su Daya, I’m here to help you. You don’t have to be so hostile to me!”

Her voice was a little loud.

Su Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows: “You, Su Jinniang, are helping me?”

When she was a child, she was ostracized by others. Su Jinniang had never dragged her friends to play with her, how can she suddenly become so kind?
