Wife’s Funny Life - Chapter 3
In the middle of the night, Wu Anguo woke up half-drunk, and when he saw the little girl in front of him, he cried so bitterly and sorrowfully that he immediately started to blame himself. The little beggars on the street also didn’t feel as pitiful as her, and were originally very unhappy about her father acting on his own accord.
Thus, in the evening, the groom, Battalion Commander Wu, finally suppressed his usual fiery temper and, as gently as if he were coaxing a little kid, handed the bride a handkerchief. His face was solemn, but the corner of his mouth twitched with difficulty as he said, “Don’t cry, I won’t bully you.”
Unexpectedly, his words made the bride cry even harder. Tears and snot even came out, and her little face was covered in tears. There was even the makeup of a bride on her face, like a little brat who hadn’t handled the scene well after stealing food, colorful and colorful.
Wu Anguo couldn’t do anything about it. Seeing that she was frightened, he didn’t reach out to get her handkerchief, but helped her wipe it. The moment his hand touched her bride’s face, she stopped crying and stared at him with wide, watery eyes.
For the first time, Wu Anguo’s hand touched that tender face, but instead of rubbing it back and forth like he usually did, he carefully wiped his forehead all the way to his mouth. Seeing her like this, Wu Anguo suddenly thought of the little white dog that he had been born with.
Xu Bao looked at the man in front of him in a daze. His forehead was broad and full, and his eyebrows were very thick. His father had said that this kind of person had a fiery temper and was very good-looking.
Thus, she said slowly, “I’m hungry!” Then she looked at him with her big watery eyes.
When Wu Anguo saw her puppy like expression, his heart softened for no reason. He even blamed himself, feeling depressed that his father didn’t care anymore and happily pulled her to find something to eat.
Or it could be said that Battalion Commander Wu was still half drunk, so he excitedly brought his bride to the kitchen to eat, as if he was leading not a girl but a stalk of stealth grass, acting as if he did not see anyone under the watchful eyes of the guards.
Xu Bao’s mind was full of meat, and he couldn’t care less about those guards with big spears on their backs. In her eyes, they were all obstacles, and if she could get past them, she would have meat to eat.
In the kitchen, Wu Anguo obviously didn’t understand where the meat was kept and was rummaging all over the place. Xu Bao had a natural love for meat, so there was no choice.
Then, Wu Anguo saw the little bride, who was crying worse than her parents had died. Her face was full of happiness and she wanted to die. Her eyes were filled with love, but she wasn’t looking at him.
Xu Bao looked at the bowl of soy sauce. Although it was already cold, he could still smell the rich aroma of the Five Spice Soy Sauce unique to pigs. He raised his head, looked at the man who brought him here, and asked, “Do you eat?”
Wu Anguo shook his head. Then, he saw his bride hug a bowl of pig’s elbow as she gnawed on her teeth. A minute passed … Two minutes passed… Five minutes passed… She didn’t even raise her head as she concentrated on nibbling on the pig’s elbow.
He coughed to attract her attention. Xu Bao raised his head reluctantly and handed him a pig’s elbow. “You want to eat too? If you want to, then just say so. My dad said that only kids who know how to call have meat to eat. Here!”
Wu Anguo crumbled a little when he saw that tender white hand holding on to a greasy pig’s elbow. He suddenly felt that his self-reproach just now was very inexplicable. That moment of softness at the bottom of his heart felt like an illusion.
He did not pick up the phone, as he had eaten his fill in the evening. Seeing that he didn’t want it, Xu Bao happily quickly took it and stuffed it into his mouth.
Resisting the urge to go on a rampage, Wu Anguo asked in a good-natured manner, “How old are you?”
“Fifteen years after the new year.” Xu Bao took the pig-eating elbow out of his mouth reluctantly and answered seriously. He also looked at Wu Anguo, hoping that he would have a problem and asked him the same question.
Wu Anguo was about to go mad. Was his father thinking of his wife going crazy? He was only fifteen … However, when he looked at the girl whose mouth was still stained with sauce, he was sure that she was already 15 years old …
“Why do you want to marry me?” Wu Anguo looked as if someone was forcing him to tell me, and I’ll help you deal with it, even if it was the old man’s show of loyalty.
Speaking of which, Xu Bao happily smiled. It was very beautiful, and if there were no traces of elbow soup on the dimple, then it would be even more beautiful. She raised her elbow and waved it in front of Wu Anguo, saying, “Uncle Wu said that if I marry you, I’ll eat meat for every meal, so I agreed.”
Wu Anguo fell head first onto the table, wanting to get drunk.
“What’s your name?” Wu Anguo propped up his shattered pride and asked with vigor.
“My name is Xu Bao. My husband can call me Xiaobao.” During Wu Anguo’s interrogation, Xu Bao took the time to nibble on his pig elbow, giving a swift answer and looking at him like a good child.
When Xu Bao was in the Wu family, he would listen to Old Man Wu recite his son’s scripture every day. Three years old without wetting the bed… Being able to recite poetry at the age of five… Eight years old and can write… Barabbala… On the first day, Xu Bao enthusiastically listened. The next day, he was a little sleepy and the latter half of his body fell asleep. On the third day, he ate some dried meat to barely listen to the rest of the story. Xu Bao was bored, so he might as well be her father. Although his father didn’t have many new words to use to coax others, there were at least three alternatives. Sir, the peach blossoms… Sir, you are not fit to travel today…
Wu Anguo, on the other hand, was being called ‘husband’ by his parents. He had been to a private school, had been in contact with the army, and had received modern education. He had his own psychological barriers against a girl who was ten years younger than him, so he sternly warned, “Um, Little Treasure, just call me Big Brother Wu. We are not in the habit of calling you Husband.”
Xu Bao was very curious. There were also some people that were not popular, but since she had meat to eat, she obediently nodded and said, “Big brother.” Then, seeing that he had no new questions, he lowered his head and focused on his elbow.
Finally finishing his meal, Xu Bao looked up at Wu Anguo with a face like a kitten, sincerely and satisfyingly saying, “Big brother, I’m sleepy.”
Wu Anguo helplessly felt that he had been demoted from a Battalion Commander to a babysitter, so he took her to wash her face. He saw her calmly taking off her wedding dress, lying on his bed openly, covering him with his blanket and sleeping.
She was even licking her tongue from time to time in her sleep, as if she was reminiscing about an elbow that she had just eaten.
Wu Anguo had completely woken up. There was a little girl sleeping on his bed. Her sleeping posture wasn’t very good, so she could freely spread out her legs. Her developed chest rose and fell naturally … With a face full of happiness and sweetness… This girl was his wife? He could not sleep …
The next morning, Wu Anguo woke up in a daze, feeling that someone was beside him. He stretched out his hand to touch the pillow, and in the blink of an eye, a shiny spear was pressed against Xu Bao’s forehead! Wu Anguo was able to become a Battalion Commander from an official in this era of war and chaos, but he was not a pushover. Besides being filial and filial, he also had to be capable.
Tears welled up in his eyes, and soon there was a flood. Wu Anguo came to his senses, and in front of him was his father’s wife. He quickly put the gun away, and an embarrassed look appeared on his face.
“Big brother, good morning. No wonder I didn’t feel at ease last night. There’s a gun under the pillow, it’s not smooth!” Xu Bao stretched out his hand to touch the back of his neck, tilting his head. He had a very vexed look on his face.
When Wu Anguo heard her words, he couldn’t help bursting into laughter. This little girl just got onto the bed and slept. After a night of snoring, he still had the nerve to say that he didn’t sleep well.
Xu Bao saw him smile and realized that being shot in the head just now was a very dangerous thing to do. He rubbed his head again and whispered, “Big brother, you were scared early in the morning ….” I’m hungry… “My father said that the best plan for the day is to eat until morning. Only then will we have the strength to work.”
Wu Anguo felt a little dizzy. Was his father helping him get married or did he marry a glutton? In total, they didn’t even talk for ten sentences. It was as if they couldn’t leave each other alone. Wu Anguo was deeply injured.
Normally, he would wear his own clothes when he sat up, but today, seeing this little girl, Wu Anguo’s gaze drifted over. Xu Bao stared blankly for a long time before understanding that he was going to help him dress.
She thought to herself, this person is too awkward, he doesn’t say anything yet, he’s shy. How would I know if you didn’t tell me to help you put on your clothes, but she quickly put it on for him, she looked up enthusiastically at the man in the cool military uniform and asked, “Big brother, when do we start eating?”
Wu Anguo was just enjoying this little girl’s busy work. She was dressed very seriously, even her right and left sleeves were rolled up to the same height, and when he felt the fragrance from her body, he suddenly became a little impulsive. He heard this little girl asking about food and instantly wanted to strangle this little girl to death. However, just as she was thinking about her miserable appearance last night, this girl didn’t eat it. It was no different than killing her.
In the morning, both of them left without delay. As soon as they opened the door, the guards saluted them in unison and said, “Good morning, Battalion Commander, good morning to you, Madam!”
Wu Anguo was used to waving his hand, but he saw that the little girl had a dignified smile on her face. He thought to himself, ‘My dad has good eyesight. Although she’s a girl from the countryside, her bearing is no less than a lady from a noble family. If an ordinary person were to be saluted by these soldiers, they would definitely be panicked.’
Xu Bao looked at this group of lush green people. They were no different from the workers he usually looked at at home, let alone the fact that she only had one thought on her mind, and that was to have a meat breakfast.
There were still guests at breakfast. Xu Bao did not wear a wedding dress today, and even though he looked a bit rustic with his ordinary flowery shirt and trousers, he was still young and cute and not too ugly.
On the other side, Song Yihan hadn’t slept at all that night. When he woke up, he saw that girl walking over with a smile on her face.
In order to keep up with the table, Xu Bao followed closely by Song Yihan’s side without missing a beat. He greeted, “Greetings, Mister Song.”
When he saw how she acted like she was yesterday, he suddenly felt better in his heart. However, after hearing this form of address, he frowned and said, “Brother Wu and I were on good terms with each other, so don’t call me Brother Song.”
Xu Bao obediently nodded his head and called out, “Big brother Song.” He followed her to the table.
At the table, Song Yihan actually wanted to say something, but that little girl just dug into the table and did not share any of his thoughts with anyone else. She was wholeheartedly eating her food.
Wu Anguo, on the other hand, didn’t like the way that foodie looked last night. He was in a good mood and even picked a piece of meat for the little girl …
