Chapter 222: Heartache from the Daughter-in-law
Huo Haocheng hurried back home, but it was still dark. Seeing him come back, Ruan Ruan put the food in the pot on the table. When the guests were eating, Huo Haocheng consciously told him where he was going in the afternoon and why he had to go there himself instead of bothering Gu Jinghe.
After hearing what he said, Ruan Ruan realized that she had not thought it through carefully and was just being lazy.
"Don't think too much. You've done very well. There are bound to be things you haven't considered, but they're harmless. Honey, you're still young, so it's normal for you not to think about it. Okay! Be good and don't think too much." Looking at his wife's self-blaming expression, Huo Haocheng wanted to slap himself. For the first 18 years, she only needed to do what she liked. As for the ways of the world, she didn't have to think about them at all with her parents, her third uncle and her third aunt around.
Now that she has followed me here, it is really difficult for her to consider so many aspects.
"That's not the case. I didn't arrange things clearly. If we had gone to the city yesterday to pay the wages first, you wouldn't have to make a trip today. I think things will be more comprehensive in the future. I won't ask you to help me make up for it."
Ruan Ruan thought that it was just a matter of paying wages, which was not that complicated, so she thought of asking Gu Jinghe for help. Anyway, you have to pick up Dr. Jiang from get off work every day, and you have to pass by the Women's Federation, but she didn't think about the relationship in between.
When Huo Haocheng heard what his wife said, he initially thought that she was blaming herself for not considering these things. It turned out that it was not the case. She felt that she had not considered everything, which was why she made him run another trip today. It seemed that his wife was worried about him. Now, he didn't think it was a big deal. Instead, he was quite happy.
"Wife, I'm your husband. I should have done these things for you, so don't blame yourself. If you really want to compensate me, it's not impossible!"
"What? What compensation do you want?" Ruan Ruan didn't know what to say for a moment. How did this person end up talking about compensation? Why did she say she would compensate him?
“.....Well, let’s eat first. The food is getting cold. We’ll talk later.” As he said that, he put some food in her bowl and started eating it in big mouthfuls.
"........inexplicable." Seeing his actions, Ruan Ruan wondered why this guy suddenly went crazy. Seeing how quickly he ate, she didn't say anything and concentrated on eating.
After finishing his meal, Huo Haocheng saw that his wife still had half a bowl in her bowl. He didn't urge her, but took his own bowl and walked into the kitchen.
Through the kitchen door, I saw him go in and start adding firewood to the stove. Was he preparing to boil water?
After knowing what he was doing, Ruan Ruan looked down at her bowl and couldn't help but speed up.
When she finished her meal, the water in the pot was almost empty. He first filled the warm water bottle with water, then placed Ruan Ruan's foot bath bucket in place for her, added water, and brought her the water for washing her face. After that, he cleared the dishes on the table, went to the kitchen, and began to wash them very consciously.
Looking at the basin and bucket in front of her, and then at the people in the kitchen, Ruan Ruan couldn't figure out what he was going to do.
Forget it, don’t think about it. He has already brought it to me, so I can’t let him down. Let’s eat.
After Huo Haocheng cleaned up the kitchen, he fetched some water in the bathroom and quickly washed himself. Then he closed the door and walked over to sit next to his wife, watching her soak her feet.
"Wife, is the water cold? Do you want me to add some more water?" Only he knew how perfunctory his question was. If Ruan Ruan had paid more attention, she would have heard that he had used up all the hot water in the pot and also taken out all the firewood from the stove. Now, there was only a little ash left in the stove.
"No need, my feet are all red." As he said this, he was about to take his feet out, but when he looked around, he found that the towel he had placed next to him for wiping his feet was gone.
Huo Haocheng was sitting with the towel under his buttocks. Seeing that his wife didn't want to soak anymore, he immediately stood up, sat opposite her, spread the towel on his knees, then picked up her feet and gently wiped the water off her feet.
For some reason, Ruan Ruan felt that Huo Haocheng tonight gave people a feeling of being nervous at one moment, tender at another, and now... well, very erotic.
Seeing his wife looking at him with inquiring eyes, Huo Haocheng really couldn't bear it anymore.
He threw down the towel in his hand and carried her back to the bed like a princess. "Wife, I'm here to make it up to you."
Hmm~ o(*￣▽￣*)o, the garden is full of spring colors, and I don’t know where it is today.
When Ruan Ruan woke up again, she looked at the watch that Huo Haocheng had placed on the bedside table. The hour hand had already pointed to 11 a.m. "Ahhh, Huo Haocheng," looking at the marks all over her body, Ruan Ruan now only wanted to stab him.
The only thing I can be thankful for is that the weather is not yet hot and the clothes can still block it, otherwise, I would be too embarrassed to see anyone.
Enduring the pain in her waist, she got up, washed, sat on the sofa, and slowly drank the millet porridge. Thinking back to the madness of last night, she felt blushing. How could she be coaxed into cooperating with him?
.....Why.
After resting for a while, I started cooking. It wasn't raining outside today, but the weather was not very good either. It was gray and it felt like something was about to break through the air.
When he came back at noon, Huo Haocheng saw her rubbing her waist all the time, and he knew that he had gone too far last night, so after dinner, he gave her a full body massage, a very serious massage. He went back to training happily until the lunch break was over. As soon as he walked out of the yard, he saw Director Chu, Zheng Xuyang and Chen Liang, the three of them walking towards him, talking and laughing.
"Wife, Director Chu is here with his men." He shouted into the house, then stood there, waiting for them.
"Hey, Captain Huo is at home. That's perfect. We came to find Ruan Ruan. The address has been chosen. Didn't she say before that after choosing a place, we should find her and talk about how to build the house? Well, we chose the place this morning. It's just that we have time now, so we came here. It can be regarded as bringing Xiao Chen to your place to get to know you."
Originally, after Chen Liang brought people to the factory in the morning, Director Chu sent someone to notify Ruan Ruan and wanted her to go to the factory. However, Chen Liang stopped her and said that he didn't know where Huo Haocheng's home was and he just wanted to come over to get to know the place. Ruan Ruan didn't have to run back and forth, and the matter could be discussed at their home.
Look, the three of them came here right after they finished their work.
"Okay, come sit inside. My wife is planning to visit you at the factory later. Come over now."
He knew they were here to discuss house building with Ruan Ruan. Anyway, there was nothing to do in the group today. Besides, with Bo Sirui here, he was not afraid of wasting time. So he was not in a hurry to go to the group, as his wife's matter was more important.
Huo Haocheng's roar before made the person who was originally sleepy suddenly alert. In addition, during the time they chatted outside, Ruan Ruan packed up and came out.
"Uncle Chu, Brother Xuyang, Brother Chen, why are you here? Ask someone to tell me a message, and I'll just go to the factory." After welcoming them into the house and pouring them a glass of water, he sat down next to Huo Haocheng.
"Your brother Chen said that since it's a rare visit, he came to get familiar with the place first. It just so happens that the address has been chosen this morning. Didn't you say before that I would come to find you after the address was chosen? Anyway, I still have some time in the afternoon, so I came directly to save you from running back."
Director Chu explained the reason why they came here. After all, they were all here to discuss business, and it didn't matter where they talked about it. They were all family, so there was no need to be so reserved.
