Siheyuan: The Era of Struggle

Chapter 229 Living as a Couple
The spring night was short, and at around five o'clock the next morning, He Yuanchao heard a faint sound coming from beside him.

He Yuanchao, who thought he had recruited a thief, was about to take action when he suddenly remembered that he was no longer the single man he used to be.

Opening his eyes and looking sideways, he saw Zhang Min with her eyebrows slightly furrowed and carefully putting on her clothes. The corners of He Yuanchao's mouth could not help but curl up.

"Both of us are not going to work today, why did you get up so early?"

The sudden sound of voices in the room startled Zhang Min. He rolled his eyes angrily at He Yuan, who was lying next to him, and then said: "You can afford it if you don't go to work! Otherwise, you have to be ignored by your neighbors." What a joke."

After saying that, he stopped talking to his men and put on his pants when he got out of bed.

Being watched by a man getting dressed, even though he was a legal man with a license, Zhang Min, a first-time wife, still felt a little embarrassed. She was shy and anxious, so her movements were inevitably a bit loud.

Hearing the sound, although he knew what was going on, He Yuanchao immediately stood up and came over, pretending to be confused and asked with concern: "What's wrong? Is there something on the ground that pricked your foot?"

"No...it's okay. I didn't stand firm and I stumbled a bit."

Thinking of He Yuanchao charging like a wild bull last night, Zhang Min complained in his heart and whispered with a flushed face.

"My ankle is sprained. Is it serious? Don't move yet."

As he spoke, He Yuanchao didn't wait for Zhang Min to say anything. After getting off the bed, he squatted down and asked, "Show me that foot."

Although Zhang Min was still a little bit resentful when she woke up early in the morning, blaming He Yuanchao for not understanding the beauty of beauty, but now seeing that he looked nervous about her, the resentment in his heart disappeared immediately.

"It's okay. How can I be so delicate? It's you. Don't freeze in this cold weather. Go to bed quickly."

After saying that, he was too embarrassed to look at He Yuanchao anymore. He stood up and walked to the stove, took the kettle and walked out.

Seeing his daughter-in-law smiling, he knew that what happened last night was over. When Zhang Min opened the door and left the house, He Yuanchao was too embarrassed to go back to sleep. He hummed a little song, got dressed and started to poke. stove.

At this time, although male chauvinism is still rampant, his women are still injured after all, and He Yuanchao cannot be a hands-off shopkeeper, just look at it.

"Why are you up? Didn't I ask you to lie down for a while?"

Zhang Min, who entered the room carrying a kettle, glanced at He Yuanchao who was adding briquettes to the stove. He walked over and put the kettle on the stove while holding back a smile and asked.

In the past few years at work, Zhang Min has often listened to the married women in the workplace nagging their men about how they smoke, drink, and do nothing, and when they get home, they all behave like uncles.

Forget it, Zhang Min even heard that some men have no ability, but they are very good with their own wives. If anything goes wrong, they will go home and beat their wives.

Two days before the wedding, Zhang Min had worried about these things, but seeing He Yuanchao working today, she felt at ease. Her husband would not help him even if the oil bottle fell. The person who takes it.

Seeing the joy in Zhang Min's eyes, He Yuanchao murmured a few words suspiciously in his heart, but he didn't open his mouth to ask, fearing that the words were wrong and his newly-accompanied daughter-in-law would start talking to him again. Kick.

"You're already up and busy. How can I stay in bed? The stove is on and the room is warm. How about we lie down for a while?"

Looking at her man talking to her with a smile on his face, Zhang Min, who often listens to the married ladies in the work unit driving, how could she not know his dirty thoughts.

"Virtue."

After Zhang Min finished speaking, he hurriedly turned around and walked out of the room towards the kitchen.

Looking at He Yuanchao's eyes on her was strange and scary. She was really afraid that her husband would ignore him. It was so early in the morning that she felt embarrassed to refuse or obey.Zhang Min is very familiar with the inside and outside of He Yuanchao's house. After all, she often came here when they were not married.

Walking into the kitchen, Zhang Min calmed down her mood while scooping rice from the grain bag into the basin. It was not until she washed the rice and put it in the pot that her flushed face returned to its normal appearance.

While Zhang Min was busy in the kitchen, He Yuanchao was not idle either. He not only folded the bedding, but also simply tidied up the room.

"The food is ready. Eat it while it's hot. I'll put away those things later."

As soon as he entered the house with the cooked millet porridge, the sharp-eyed Zhang Min found that the bedding on the bed had been packed away. Thinking of the things he had missed this morning, he greeted in a somewhat unnatural voice.

Hearing the commotion, He Yuanchao put down the thermos bottle in his hand, turned around and walked towards the table, and said in a hurry: "How long will we use these things they gave us?"

Seeing that there was no strange look on He Yuanchao's face sitting at the dinner table, Zhang Min felt relieved.

"These things don't eat grass or feed, so there's nothing to worry about. Sooner or later, they'll be useful."

After saying that, he turned around and went out of the house to the kitchen to pour something on the dining table.

Breakfast is very simple, millet porridge with pickles.

After taking two mouthfuls of porridge, He Yuanchao felt that the atmosphere was a little dull. He Yuanchao raised his head and glanced at Zhang Min, who was eating with his head down, and asked with some curiosity: "What did the neighbor in the courtyard say to you just now? Listen. It’s quite lively here.”

"It's very busy early in the morning. What can I say? I just asked if I can adapt to life here after I just walked in."

Speaking of this, Zhang Min also felt very lucky in her heart, because apart from He Yuanchao's nephew, he was the only one in the family, so she didn't have to look at her parents-in-law's face as soon as she walked in.

There is no need to quarrel with my sister-in-law all day long because of trivial matters.

She also knew that her idea was wrong, but with her temperament, Zhang Min guessed that she might not be able to get along with her parents-in-law and sisters-in-law.

There is a colleague in Zhang Min's work unit. Her mother-in-law has a lot of rules and regulations. The colleague is usually such a boss in the work unit, and her mother-in-law makes her cry when she gets home.

Although he usually has a cold face, he seems to be quite powerful, but his family knows about his affairs, and if he meets a powerful mother-in-law, he probably won't even be able to cry.

It's not that all wives who want to be married are arrogant, but in this age where fame is so great, anyone who wants to gain fame and face doesn't dare to have a stalemate with their mother-in-law.

It's hard to say what you're like in private, but you have to be coaxed and complied with in public, otherwise you'll be labeled as unfilial, and you don't have to have seven aunts and eight aunties pointing fingers at you, aunts and aunts from the street and the Women's Federation. They are enough for you to drink a pot.

If you have a job again, you can't be idle in the unit. Under the preaching from all sides, Tumo Xingzi can drown you. At this time, the organization really pretends to be the masses and can handle it, and they will really come forward when something happens.

The couple started chatting at the dinner table, chatting for a while but not for a while. When He Yuanchao finished eating, he put down the bowls and chopsticks and asked casually: "Daughter-in-law, what do you want after dinner?" Arrangements?"

Zhang Min shook his head, swallowed the last bit of food in his mouth and said, "Hey, are you okay?"

"Well, my godmother has been running around a lot these days to help me out. I'm thinking that we can go see her after a while."

The company had a holiday for the past two days, so nothing happened. Just as Zhang Min was about to nod in agreement, he suddenly remembered something.

"Then what if the senior brother and his wife come to find you?"
