Chapter 63
63 New Year’s Eve (1)
How did the topic get to this point?
It was different from what she had expected!
Shouldn’t Wei Ting deny it or state that he had not given her the token?
In that case, he was here to steal her things tonight!
No, her original intention was not to ask him to admit that he had stolen it. How did they end up at this point in their quarrel?
She did not perform well!
Unfortunately, Wei Ting did not give her a chance to turn the tables.
“I’ll give myself to you. Can you return the token to me?”
The night blurred his outline and the coldness in his tone. His low and magnetic voice made one’s heart inexplicably soften in this silent world.
Su Xiaoxiao understood that this body’s infatuation was acting up again.
She was the one who dropped the ball at the critical moment!
Wei Ting wanted to take back the token, but Su Xiaoxiao refused to hand it over. The two of them fell into a stalemate.
“Wei Ting.”
Su Xiaoxiao suddenly spoke.
“Shoot.”
Wei Ting replied coldly.
Su Xiaoxiao hummed and recalled seriously. “If I wasn’t dreaming last time, did I touch it?”
Wei Ting was speechless.
In the end, Wei Ting could not take back the token because Xiaohu peed.
Su Xiaoxiao felt that it was time. When Xiaohu moved under the blanket, she hurriedly pulled him out and stuffed him into Wei Ting’s arms.
Wei Ting was not so lucky. Before he could react, a wave of his son’s love rolled across his chest…
Xiaohu, who had finished peeing, felt very comfortable even in his sleep. He raised his chin in enjoyment and looked extremely smug in his sleep.
Wei Ting went out with a dark expression.
“Haha!”
Su Xiaoxiao fell onto the bed with a smile.
—
Before dawn, Su Xiaoxiao got up from the soft blanket.
Perhaps it was because a fatty was not afraid of the cold or because there were three small warm water bags, but she slept quite warmly.
It had snowed heavily last night and blocked the door.
The stone slabs in the backyard were covered in thick ice, making it difficult for children to step on them.
Su Xiaoxiao swept the snow and shoveled the ice. She was covered in sweat and finally eliminated the hidden danger in the backyard.
This year’s business ended yesterday. She did not have to set up a stall today, but she still had to go to town.
Firstly, she was not sure if Physician Fu had returned. She had to see Aunt Fu. Secondly, it was time to do a follow-up for Young Master Xiang.
She cooked two poached eggs, drained them, smeared them with a thin layer of peanut butter, scalded a few cabbage leaves, and added a corn cob-to manage her current weight, this was a nutritious and sumptuous fat-reducing breakfast.
She steamed big meat buns for her family and heated them in the pot. Then, she carried the three sleeping children to Su Ergou before carrying the basket out the door.
The snow on the road was thick and difficult to walk on.
In such weather, unless there was something important, they usually wouldn’t go out.
However, Su Xiaoxiao actually met her aunt, Madam Huang, and her eldest cousin, Chen Haoyuan, at the village entrance.
Madam Huang’s outfit today was not simple. She was wearing a brand-new cotton-padded jacket and a very rare silver hairpin.
Although it was obvious that it was silver-plated, it was already considered an important outfit in the countryside.
Looking at Chen Haoyuan again, he was on vacation. He had taken off the blue academy uniform and changed into a decent grayish-white robe.
In Zhou Country, people paid attention to their attire and could not wear clothes that exceeded their status. For example, most of the commoners were dressed in short combat clothes and could only wear outfits made of common cloth. Commoners were named thus for a reason.
A long gown was a symbol of status for a scholar or a wealthy family. Chen Haoyuan belonged to the former.
Clothes maketh the man. This applied to both men and women. Half of Chen Haoyuan’s handsomeness came from his good looks, and the other half was from his dignified long robe and school uniform.
Wei Ting was the only one who could look striking despite wearing shabby clothes.
Madam Huang was holding a basket covered in cotton. It looked a little heavy, and it was a little difficult for Madam Huang to carry it.
Meanwhile, Chen Haoyuan was empty-handed. Chen Haoyuan was a scholar. The entire family doted on him and didn’t let him do any work…
Su Xiaoxiao felt that boys should be like Ergou and be raised well. They couldn’t be too spoiled.
It was obvious that Madam Huang and Chen Haoyuan were not here for the Su family. As for who they were looking for, Su Xiaoxiao was not interested.
She left expressionlessly.
Seeing that the wretched girl did not even greet her, Madam Huang was so angry that she mocked, “Have you become blind and mute now that New Year Year’s Eve is approaching? Do you not even know how to greet your Aunt?”
