Chapter 53 : Do you still want Xiaoyao?

Ye Suiwan’s heart sank when she heard this. She had tried her best to remain calm throughout the whole process, but she didn’t expect him to still notice something.  

Inside, she was panicking, but she didn’t show it on her face. Her cheeks remained flushed as she spoke coquettishly.  

“Maybe she’s just gifted. She’s been around her father since she was little and has been influenced by him. Aren’t you happy that your wife is so smart?”  

After saying that, she snuggled into the man’s arms.  

Xiao Yuyan’s body tensed. If he didn’t have to wake up early tomorrow, he would never have let go of the woman in his arms.  

“Yes, I’m happy. Now, let’s go to sleep!”  

Xiao Yuyan’s hoarse voice carried a hint of restraint.  

Where he couldn’t see, Ye Suiwan’s lips curled slightly in relief.  

But at the same time, she also realized something.  

This man couldn’t resist beauty.  

She suddenly lifted her head and bit Xiao Yuyan’s lips.  

“Stay away from other women in the future, especially beautiful ones.”  

Her tone was fierce, but her gaze was seductive, making her words completely unconvincing.  

However, Xiao Yuyan found her attitude quite endearing.  

“Alright, only you, my wife. If you don’t sleep—”  

“I’m asleep!”  

Are you kidding? Do you still want your small waist?  

Xiao Yuyan chuckled.  

“Alright, good night.”  

It felt so good to sleep with his wife in his arms.  

Knowing that she didn’t like the heat, just as they were about to sleep, he kissed her forehead before reluctantly moving slightly away.  

“Mm, good night!”  

After Ye Suiwan responded, she yawned and quickly fell into a deep sleep.  

Beside her, Xiao Yuyan slept soundly and woke up at dawn.  

“Awake?”  

“Let’s wash up and have breakfast, then we’ll head out.”  

“I found my fifth uncle. He’ll take us to town in a bullock cart so we can catch the bus.”  

Xiao Yuyan packed the things they needed before coming in to wake her up, but unexpectedly, she had just sat up.  

“Alright! You go ahead and do what you need to do, I’ll come out by myself.”  

“Okay!”  

Xiao Yuyan responded, as he indeed had some things to handle.  

Last night, before going to bed, Ye Suiwan had asked Xiaobao to call him.  

They had to leave at five o’clock, and since it was only a little after four now, they still had time.  

Ye Suiwan stretched and didn’t dawdle any longer.  

“Suiwan, you’re awake? Breakfast is ready, come eat.”  

Lin Lan had already prepared the meal and was waiting. She also gave Xiao Yuyan some instructions.  

She was quite nervous about her son going to meet his father-in-law.  

“Okay, thanks, Mom.”  

“Where are He He and the others?”  

Ye Suiwan asked as she took a sip of warm rice porridge. There were also side dishes and egg pancakes on the table.  

She didn’t think for a moment that they hadn’t gotten up yet.  

“They’re practicing in the backyard. Yuyan went to check on them.”  

Ye Suiwan raised an eyebrow and smirked. She hadn’t expected them to be so diligent.  

“Is that so? Then I’ll eat quickly, too. Mom, have you eaten yet?”  

“We’ve already eaten. The same meal as yours. Is this enough? If not, I can make more.”  

Lin Lan deliberately emphasized this.  

Their family used to eat only two meals a day. In the past, they were frugal, eating just enough to be full. But now that they had a daughter-in-law, they couldn’t treat her poorly, and the children got lucky because of it.  

Of course, Lin Lan didn’t say this to Ye Suiwan.  

“This is enough, Mom. Go ahead and do what you need to do. I’ll clean up after we finish eating.”  

Ye Suiwan smiled.  

“Alright!”  

Lin Lan checked their luggage again. There were two fairly large bags. Xiao Yuyan and Ye Suiwan had packed their own, so she didn’t interfere.  

Ye Suiwan finished her meal quickly, washed the dishes, and went to the toilet.  

The Xiao family’s toilet had flushing facilities, and everyone maintained it well, so there was no odor, even in summer.  

Apparently, it was Xiao Yuyan’s father who had insisted on building it this way.  

She was quite satisfied.  

After locking the door, Ye Suiwan entered the space.  

[Wow, Master, have you forgotten about Xiaobao since you got married? You haven’t come in for a long time.]  

Xiaobao complained in a pitiful voice.  

“We’ve been communicating often.”  

“Who told you that I can’t be aware of harvesting and planting? Can you really blame me?”  

Ye Suiwan knew it was thinking about farming!  

[You must plant the first 100 acres yourself. After that, you can plant using your mind in the space, but you can’t plant outside of it.]

Xiaobao refused to give in.  

Ye Suiwan: “…”  

“Alright, I’ll go harvest first.”  

Ye Suiwan grumbled as she went to work.  

Fortunately, practice makes perfect, and now the time required had been greatly reduced.  

She was even more anxious than Xiaobao. If the Time Mall opened when she went to Beijing this time, perhaps some of the items sold there could help her.  

No matter who tried to make things difficult for the Ye family, she would definitely restore order when she returned.  

“Alright, I’ll find time to come in and plant today. I have to leave now.”  

With that, Ye Suiwan immediately left.  

“Have you finished practicing?”  

When she came out, the siblings had just returned from the backyard and were washing their faces!  

They had clearly worked up quite a sweat.  

“Yes, sister-in-law, my brother said we all did well.”  

Xiao Nuannuan said proudly.  

Getting praise from her elder brother was no easy feat.  

“You guys are already amazing.”  

Ye Suiwan smiled and joined them in washing her hands.  

Just then, the sound of a bell rang at the gate.  

“It’s Uncle Wu. Sister-in-law, you guys are leaving. Now it’ll just be Mom and me at home.”  

Xiao Nuannuan said reluctantly.  

After the harvest this year, she would be going to junior high school, so for now, she could only stay at home.  

But since the junior high school was in town, she would just need to commute daily and wouldn’t have to live on campus.  

“Your eldest brother and I will be back soon. Help Mom with the housework and take care of yourself.”  

Ye Suiwan reminded her.  

Hearing these words, the others couldn’t help but feel touched. They had seen many conflicts between mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law in the village.  

“Yes, I understand, sister-in-law!”  

Xiao Nuannuan nodded seriously.  

By this time, Xiao Yuyan and his companions had already loaded everything onto the ox cart.  

“Suiwan, take this and buy something to eat on the way. I also packed some food for you in my bag.”  

Lin Lan took Ye Suiwan’s hand and stuffed a handkerchief into her palm.  

“Mom, I already have money!”  

Ye Suiwan immediately recognized what it was just by touch, it was a stack of bills, and quite a lot of them.  

“What you have is yours. Be good and go now, don’t keep Old Wu waiting too long.”  

Lin Lan didn’t allow her to refuse.  

At that moment, Xiao Yuyan also walked in.  

“Take it, Wanwan. Let’s go.”  

“Thank you, Mom. I’ll bring you a gift when I return.”  

Ye Suiwan no longer refused and instead decided to show her filial piety in the future.  

When they stepped out, Xiao Hehe, Xiao Chufan, and Xiao Jinzhou were already seated on the ox cart, with the best seats naturally reserved for them.  

“Sister-in-law, sit here.”  

Xiao Hehe called out.  

“Alright!”  

“Mom, you and Nuannuan should go back now.”  

“Be careful on the road. Yuyan, make sure to stay alert while traveling!”  

Lin Lan said worriedly.  

A mother would always worry about her child, no matter how far away he was. No matter how capable her son was, in her heart, he was still just her child, not to mention that he now had a delicate wife to take care of.  

“I know, Mom. Don’t worry. I’ll have someone send you news once we arrive.”  

Xiao Yuyan reassured her.  

The ox cart carried the group towards town. The journey was relatively fast, and Uncle Wu took them directly to the bus station.  

“Thank you for your hard work, Uncle Wu.”  

Xiao Yuyan paid his fifth uncle the fare before quickly boarding the earliest bus to the county town. Missing it would have been a real waste of time.
