Traveling through time and space to become a child, supporting the family by catching fish and shrim
Chapter 17 I am your only man
Chen Lang continued to take out the treasures.
"Hey, big buns and roast chicken."
"You two haven't had a proper meal of meat in a long time, so let's enjoy it today."
Guoguo quickly stuffed the remaining duck eggs into her mouth, pushing her cheeks up high. She chewed hard and finally swallowed the duck eggs with great effort. Then she exclaimed in surprise, "Wow, meat."
Li Xiuzhi quickly covered Guoguo's mouth, "Shh! Keep your voice down."
Guoguo also reacted and nodded repeatedly.
After Li Xiuzhi took her hand away, Guoguo whispered, "Daddy is so awesome!"
Looking at the cute little guy, Chen Lang felt that no matter how much hardship he had to endure, it was all worth it.
"Come, have a try!" Chen Lang moved the big-faced plate over.
Guoguo was no longer afraid of Chen Lang. She held Chen Lang's head with both hands and gave him a big kiss.
Chen Lang moved his face closer to Li Xiuzhi again.
Li Xiuzhi slapped Chen Lang's face coquettishly, "Hateful."
After the fight, she and Chen Lang were both stunned.
Li Xiuzhi was a little panicked, "I...I...I didn't mean it..."
Chen Lang touched his cheek and laughed like a pervert: "Hehe, hehehe..."
Li Xiuzhi then realized that Chen Lang was not angry, but secretly happy.
"The child is still here." Li Xiuzhi said angrily.
Guo Guo, who was chewing a bun, looked up when she heard this: "Huh?"
Chen Lang rubbed his cheeks, which were sore from laughing, and said, "There are some good things."
Then he took out clothes and shoes.
Guoguo has never been so happy since he was a child. First, he ate the eggs he had been longing for, then he got the big meat buns and roast chicken, and now he even got new clothes.
The little man's heart is as happy as a blooming flower bud, so colorful and brilliant.
Compared to Guoguo's happiness, Li Xiuzhi had an extra layer of worry.
New clothes and new shoes are nice, but can you wear them outside?
If my mother-in-law Qin and my sister-in-law Qian see Guoguo and I wearing new clothes, won’t they come over and snatch them away?
As a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, they are definitely capable of doing such a thing.
It’s okay if Chen Lang is here, but what if Chen Lang is not here?
Once they snatch it away, can you really get it back?
Clothes and shoes are not small items like hairbands. They are valuable items. If they wear them and refuse to take them off, does Chen Lang have to strip his mother-in-law and sister-in-law of their clothes?
If this gets out, he won't just be beaten with a stick, he might end up in jail.
Guoguo had already put on her new shoes with Chen Lang's help and was jumping up and down on the bed, as happy as a peony. She even held out her little feet to Li Xiuzhi and said, "Mom, do Guoguo's new shoes look good?"
Li Xiuzhi forced a smile and said, "It looks good. Guoguo looks good in anything she wears."
Guoguo jumped even more happily, "Mom said Guoguo is pretty, Daddy, Mom said Guoguo is pretty."
Chen Lang laughed cheerfully and said, "Daddy also said Guoguo is pretty, why don't you look so excited?"
Guoguo shyly hid behind Li Xiuzhi and whispered, "Thank you, Daddy."
Chen Lang was just about to hold the little one in his arms and give him a loving hug when he noticed Li Xiuzhi was frowning. He asked, "What's wrong? Are the clothes and shoes not to your liking?"
Li Xiuzhi hesitated for a moment, but still expressed her concerns.
Chen Lang suddenly realized and said, "So that's what you're worried about. It's a good opportunity for me to tell you two things."
"First, if anyone else in the family comes to steal our things and I'm not home, you should argue with them and make a scene. In short, you must not suffer any loss. Just wait until I get home and it's over."
"The second thing I'm saying is to Guoguo. My dear daughter, listen to Daddy. If Yueyue and Niannian ever hit you, you must hit them back. Hit them with the same method they use to hit you. If anything happens, Daddy will take care of it for you, so don't be afraid."
"If you feel you can't beat them, just bite them with your teeth. Bite their arms, legs, or whatever. Don't let go until they surrender. Do you understand?"
Li Xiuzhi felt a little scared when she heard this and asked, "Is this okay?"
Chen Lang said seriously: "It's okay. We are a family of three and we can't be bullied anymore."
"Why did they dare to bully us so brazenly before? Of course, it was mostly because of me... But now it's different. I won't side with them anymore. I only have you and your daughter in my heart. So feel free to confront them."
Li Xiuzhi asked, "What if they go to the government office and sue you for being unfilial?"
Chen Lang laughed and said, "Then let them file a lawsuit. The worst that can happen is they'll get a beating."
"More importantly, if I'm really charged with being unfilial, I can then logically ask for a separation, and it would only take a beating."
"Also, you don't have to worry about being beaten by the government officials, because there are backdoors for me to escape even if they beat me."
"To put it bluntly, as long as the money is in place, even if you get a hundred strokes of the cane, you'll still be alive and kicking. But if the money isn't in place, even a single blow can cripple a strong man."
Chen Lang thought of this when he was riding in a carriage back to the village today.
As the saying goes, the government office faces south, and if you have a reason but no money, don't come in.
As long as the money is in place, black can be turned into white.
Chen Lang continued, "Besides, my parents are probably reluctant to give up the 50-cent subsidy every month, so no matter how much we argue, they will be the ones to give in in the end."
Li Xiuzhi thought about it carefully and it seemed to be true, so she finally felt relieved.
"Come, try on the shoes."
Chen Lang squatted on the ground and took off Li Xiuzhi's tattered straw sandals.
Seeing Li Xiuzhi's feet covered with calluses and scars, Chen Lang's nose suddenly felt sore and his eyes turned red.
This simple country woman must have suffered so much over the years that her feet are now in such a state.
Li Xiuzhi was a little embarrassed and covered her feet with her hands, "Don't look, I'll put them on myself."
Chen Lang raised his head and said seriously, "I want to help you put on your shoes."
Chen Lang's eyes made Li Xiuzhi's heart beat wildly, as if she was back to the time when she first got married.
That was the way Chen Lang looked at me at that time.
But after that, I never saw him again.
"Wait a moment." Chen Lang hurried out of the house, brought back a basin of hot water, put Li Xiuzhi's feet in it, and washed them gently.
Li Xiuzhi couldn't hold it in any longer and started crying, covering her face.
Although Guoguo didn't know what happened, she cried as soon as her mother cried, wiping Li Xiuzhi's tears while crying: "Mom, don't cry, don't be sad, Guoguo will be obedient."
Li Xiuzhi hugged her daughter and choked up, saying, "Mom is not sad, Mom is happy."
He immediately looked at Chen Lang and asked, "Chen Erlang, tell me honestly, who are you?"
Chen Lang raised his head and smiled gently: "I am your husband, your only man, Chen Lang!"
