He picked up the ginger water beside the brick bed and took a sip. It was sweet and refreshing, but Hai Tao was quite considerate. He was afraid that she might find it spicy, which touched her.
After drinking up a bowl of ginger water, Hai Tao walked in with a large washtub. At this time of the year, it was the same for rural women.
"Change your wet clothes. I'll wash them for you later."
Ning Hai Tao put down the pot and went to rummage through his clothes. He felt displeased when he saw his wife only had two or three sets of clothes left and right.
"You changed your clothes as well. You're just busy taking care of me. Why don't you think about yourself?"
Liu Shufang looked at him with a pained expression. After coming back for so long, he had been so busy taking care of her that he didn't even bother to change his clothes.
"It's fine, I'm a man full of firepower! "Don't be afraid, Shufang, quickly wash up."
Ning Haitao took off his shoes and got on the brick bed. He closed the curtains and Liu Shufang slowly took off her wet clothes. Her actions were very slow, similar to the slow movements in the movies.
Ning Hai Tao closed the curtain and turned around to see his wife's white body, full of the curvy beauty of a woman.
His breathing became rough and his heartbeat accelerated.
Liu Shufang didn't even look at him as she went down to wash in front of her husband.
The sparkling water droplets slid down her smooth skin, giving off a feeling as if they were made of shining silk. It was truly touching.
"Shufang …"
Ning Haitao struggled to slide his Adam's apple and called his wife's name with a trembling voice.
"Hmm?"
"Yes!" Liu Shufang answered in a long tone, which added to the temptation. Ning Haitao jumped off the brick bed and rushed to his wife's side.
"Let me help you …" "Wash."
As Ning Haitao spoke, his big hands started to become dishonest. Liu Shufang smiled and slapped his claws away.
"I'll do it myself, go out."
There was a trace of coldness in his voice, extinguishing the fire in Ning Haitao's heart. He looked at his wife in shock, and saw her cold eyes staring at him. She was so unfamiliar that it frightened him.
"What's wrong?"
He didn't know what he had done wrong? He was fine just a moment ago, why was he so angry now?
"Ning Haitao, remember, I, Liu Shufang, want a single-minded man, not a man who has other women's shadows in his heart."
[Men are always like children. If you don't tell them, they will never know why you're unhappy.]
I seem to have told you before, but that was in the past. Today, I just can't stand watching a man beat up a woman, if you don't let me go, I wouldn't have cared, right? Then she jumped into the river and I couldn't stand by and watch her die. "
Ning Hai Tao helplessly pinched the center of his brows. His wife's heart was a bit small.
"Hai Tao, don't tell me you don't feel anything for Red Cloud anymore. That note, how you protected her on the mountain, and your anxiety and anger when you saw her being beaten all prove that you still have her shadow in your heart. Think clearly about who you want. "I, Liu Shufang, don't want a man who is two-faced or wants to flatter me."
Liu Shufang's display of power this time had caught Ning Haitao by surprise. Her words were like a hammer that struck his heart.
Indeed, he admitted, he was angry at the sight of the red glow, and his desire to protect her, and his heart clenched at the sight of her jumping into the river, and his fear that she would die just like that was proof that he had not forgotten her.
"You wash first, I'll go take a seat in the courtyard."
Ning Hai Tao walked out of the room dejectedly and walked into the yard without looking back. He took a deep breath and closed his eyes to think things through.
Liu Shufang sighed heavily inside the house. It was like the scar between her and Hai Tao. It would hurt if it was lifted, but it would let them see clearly.
He wiped the water off his body absentmindedly and changed into dry clothes. He took a wooden comb and sat in front of the mirror, combing his hair.
"Shufang, can I come in?"
Liu Shufang heard her mother-in-law's voice from the door. She walked over and opened the door, carefully supporting her grandma around the water stain on the ground.
"Mother, why are you thinking of coming here?"
Liu Shufang knew that her mother-in-law wouldn't visit the Three Treasures Hall without a reason. She didn't even come normally, so she must have come today to say something?
"Shufang, mother knows you're a good wife, and has been wronged by you. This broken house, and my body, have dragged you down."
After Zhang Sanhua sat down, she first praised her daughter-in-law, and then kept on saying that she had worked hard. Liu Shufang knew that this was the beginning of the conversation, and her next words were more important.
"It's alright, Mom. This is nothing, as long as our family is happy and is better than anything else."
"Shufang, you have heard mother say that Hai Tao has a kind personality and a cold face. That red light is exactly what caught him, but mother dared to guarantee that he would never betray you. His character is here, and since he's married to you, even if Hong Xia is divorced, he wouldn't turn around to look for her."
Sure enough, Zhang Sanhua went straight to the point, explaining the reason for her visit. She clearly heard from outside the house that her wife was angry because of the red clouds, and that there shouldn't be any problems between the two of them.
"Mother, I know, but you also know that Hai Tao will be leaving in a few days, how can I guard against him?" It's just that I'm looking at someone, what's the point of having a hard time? "
Liu Shufang slowly sat down and told her mother-in-law the grievances in her heart. Her mother was too early to say anything, and there was no place for her to say anything. She was truly lonely.
"Yes, he has to think about this matter clearly. Mother also said that she would look at him, but he is not a kitten or a puppy. How can we use a rope to tie him up?"
Zhang Sanhua sighed, but she also felt helpless. She saw her son sitting in the yard with his forehead locked into a large lump, and a conflicted expression on his face.
"Mom, if that's the case, I don't want this man."
Liu Shufang spoke in a domineering manner. After all, it was her fault to have been reborn. She had done everything she should have done in her previous life, but this did not mean that she had to tolerate anything.
"Shufang?"
Zhang Sanhua looked at her in astonishment. After getting along with her for the past few days, she knew that this daughter-in-law had her own ideas and her temper was not small.
"Mom, I admit that I like Hai Tao, and I can also say that I love him, but if he has different intentions, then I might as well live in peace."
In the past two days, Hai Tao's mind had been tossed left and right twice, which made her feel very tired. Why did she have to fight with others for it? Only then did he have the heart to give up.
His temptation to Hai Tao just now had been to come to a conclusion in his heart, that if he wanted her, he wouldn't think about other women.
Ning Haitao was standing at the door of his room. He had clearly heard the conversation between his mother and Liu Shufang. His hands were clenched tightly as complicated emotions filled his eyes.
