Nangong Shn took out the items and repacked them, only keeping those that Qin Xue particrly liked and leaving out those that she didn’t like as much.
By the time Nangong Shn had finished packing, Qin Lei had also finished removing all the mung bean cakes from their molds, ready to be steamed.
It’s said that men and women working together make things less tiring, and that’s absolutely true.
The couple quickly tidied up everything that needed to be organized, and Nangong Shn set aside the wrapped items.
After Qin Lei steamed the mung bean cakes, Nangong Shn packed some of them in a bag to take back to her inwster.
Those intended for Qin Xue were left on the table to cool down, since the weather was so hot, it would spoil if sealed in a bag.
“Honey, we’re done with everything and finished tidying up. Let’s leave these out to cool, and we can pack them tomorrow morning. I’ll wash the pot and heat up some water for a bath. You go take a break, it’s been a long day.” Nangong Shn scooped out the water used for steaming the mung bean cakes.
She then scrubbed the pot and prepared to heat up water to take a shower, feeling sweaty and ufortable after a long day of work.
“You wash the pot; I’ll bring in the water.” Qin Lei didn’t want his wife to be too tired, knowing that not only had he been tired all day, but so had she.
“Alright then!” Nangong Shn knew her husband was being considerate and did not reject his kindness.
An ideal rtionship between husband and wife involves mutual tolerance and help. It’s not about who contributes more or less, as an unbnced rtionship won’tst.
“Okay.” Qin Lei smiled, took the water bucket, and went out to the courtyard to fetch water. He knew his wife would understand his intentions.
As it grew darker, Qin Yu found it increasingly difficult to read his book, so he put it away and stepped out of his room.
Seeing that the granddad-grandson duo was still ying chess, Qin Yu fetched an oilmp, lit it, and ced it on the table.
Qin Jiale looked up at Qin Yu and sweetly smiled, “Thank you, brother.”
Qin Yu smiled and asked, “Where’s grandma? Where did she go?”
As Qin Yu had not seen grandma when he came out, he asked about her.
“I’m not sure; I didn’t notice.” Qin Jiale looked around but truly didn’t see his grandma.
“There’s no need to look; your grandma probably went home to feed the chickens,” said Mr. Qin, even though he hadn’t noticed when his wife had left, he knew her personality well.
“Yeah, that makes sense,” Qin Yu agreed.
“What are you guys looking for?” Nangong Shn came in and saw them seemingly searching for something.
“Nothing, just noticed grandma wasn’t here and asked about it,” Qin Yu replied upon hearing his mother’s inquiry.
“Oh, your grandma went home.” Nangong Shn recalled that her mother-inw had mentioned going home to feed the chickens when she was packing the mung bean cakes, so she left first.
“See, I told you.” Mr. Qin looked contentedly at Qin Yu and Qin Jiale.
“Yeah, grandpa is the best; he always guesses right.” Qin Jiale happily praised her grandpa with a smile.
“Of course! We’ve been together for decades; how could I not understand her?” Mr. Qin said, a little embarrassed, while looking at his granddaughter. “Exactly, that’s why my grandpa is so awesome! Haha!” With that, Qin Jiale winked at her brother.
Qin Yu felt helpless in his heart, as his sister was yfully teasing their grandpa.
“Grandpa, let me y a game with you. Little sister, you go take a shower first.” Qin Yu saw that it was gettingpletely dark outside.
“Alright, thank you, brother.” Qin Jiale stood up stretching her waist, rubbing her sore neck, and said with a smile.
“Hurry up; it’s already dark.” Qin Yu gently pushed her away and took his sister’s seat.
“Grandpa, you start first.” Qin Yu followed the principle of respecting the old and loving the young, and let his grandpa make the first move..
