After emptying her family's fortune, the pampered young lady went to join the army while heavil

Chapter 81: A Series of Fallacies
The water in Qiao Nian's eyes rippled.

Just looking at him like that made Lu Xiao's mind wander.

His earlobes turned slightly red. To hide his expression, he coughed and pretended to be very serious. "Comrade Qiao Nian, you're wrong about that."

"What's wrong?"

Qiao Nian wanted to hear what kind of twisted logic Lu Xiao could come up with.

Lu Xiao said in a serious tone, "Frugality is a traditional virtue of ours. My act of helping Comrade Qiao Nian is not about competing with the child for food, but simply about not wanting to waste food."

"Oh, so you mean I should thank you?"

Qiao Nian raised an eyebrow.

Lu Xiao nodded hesitantly.

"No need to thank me, after all, we are husband and wife, it would be too polite to say thank you."

Qiao Nian...

False reasoning.

This man really has a whole bunch of fallacies.

She pinched his arm in an annoyed manner.

The man's flesh was already hard, not to mention the thick military coat underneath. With her little strength, it was impossible for her to pinch him and hurt him.

Instead of hurting him, my own fingers were in excruciating pain.

Qiao Nian grumbled and pouted, looking unhappy.

Lu Xiao smiled and coaxed her, and it took a while before Qiao Nian 'forgave' him.

The couple chatted and joked as they went, and soon they arrived home.

As soon as Qiao Nian got home, she washed her hands and went inside to see if the child was awake.

It turned out that the child was indeed asleep, and in a very deep sleep.

Qiao Nian...

She was already feeling terrible, and seeing the child made her feel even worse, like she was about to explode.

She even felt that her clothes were already soaked.

“Lu Xiao…”

Originally feeling extremely disgusted, Qiao Nian had no choice but to go to the door of the room and call out to the person outside.

"You come."

She was fuming, her cheeks puffed out.

It's not easy to mess with at first glance.

Lu Xiao seemed to have expected this, so he wasn't too surprised.

Confident and composed, he strolled leisurely towards the bedroom door.

"What's wrong, Comrade Qiao Nian?"

What a jerk! Now he's pretending to be serious?
Qiao Nian glared at him again, annoyed.

wait.

He can forget about getting into her bed tonight.

"What do you say?"

Seeing Lu Xiao's ambiguous smile, Qiao Nian was so angry she wanted to bite his cheeks a few times.

Lu Xiao also knew when to stop, and would just tease his wife occasionally.

If he really angers his wife and she takes away his benefits, he'll have nowhere to cry.

"Don't be angry, it will hurt more if you're angry."

"Get lost."

Qiao Nian turned around and went inside first.

Lu Xiao quickly closed the door and bolted it shut.

Although he knew that his parents wouldn't come over when he and his wife were in the room, he knew that his wife was a delicate person who would stop him from continuing if she was even slightly unhappy, so he had to close the door beforehand.

Qiao Nian sat on the kang (a heated brick bed), watching his actions, feeling both annoyed and amused.

Why are you closing the door?

"To help my wife solve her problems."

"You get out."

Qiao Nian really wanted to kick the man.

But for now, she needed his mouth, so she tolerated him for the time being.

Kick him after you're done using him.

However, feeding adults and children feels completely different. Even though she had tried it a few times before, Qiao Nian still found it very difficult to get used to.

how to say?

Pain and pleasure intertwined?

She whimpered softly, clutching the pillow carefully to avoid bumping into the sleeping child...

…………

The two children took their afternoon nap at five o'clock, and it was time for them to get up at seven-thirty.

After waking up and seeing their mother at home, the brother and sister naturally went to her place to find food.

Qiao Nian looked at Lu Xiao with a guilty conscience.

Lu Xiao touched the tip of his nose and picked up the child who was clinging to his wife.

"Dad took me to drink milk..."

As for why the mother was unable to give them food?
Judging from the man's guilty look, he must have done something wrong, otherwise he wouldn't be so guilty.

Time flies, and Chinese New Year is here.

Lu Xiao doesn't have to work this year, so he has a five-day holiday and can spend time at home with his wife and children.

As for the matter of Beijing wanting them to go back home for the Lunar New Year, we'll have to wait and see next year.

Today is the last day of 73, and tomorrow we will enter 74.

Qiao Nian felt like she had just returned yesterday, but in the blink of an eye, her two children were almost crawling.

Wang Xueqin and Li Ruihua also came over with gifts after breakfast to celebrate the New Year.

They brought some crispy fried pork with them, and Qiao Nian could smell the delicious aroma from afar.

Feeling a bit hungry, she first went to the basket her teacher's wife was carrying and took a piece of crispy pork, putting it in her mouth.

"It smells good."

It's even more fragrant than the beef jerky my dad makes.

"Really delicious."

Qiao Nian grabbed another piece of crispy pork and turned to feed it to Lu Xiao.

Upon seeing this, several elders chuckled.

Nian Yunci urged Wang Xueqin to come inside and sit down, as it was cold outside.

They have heated kang beds here, and the houses also have heated walls, so it's warm inside during the winter and not hard to bear at all.

My skin is just a little dry.

Fortunately, Qiao Nian bought a lot of face cream. Everyone in the family, regardless of age or gender, had a jar of face cream, and they would buy more when they ran out.

Apply some cream to the faces and hands of both babies to prevent their skin from cracking and to keep their skin soft, white, and adorable.

When the twins were born, each weighed only four pounds, and they were so tiny they looked like little kittens.

But after eight or nine months of careful feeding, the child now weighs twelve pounds.

chubby and fair-skinned, like a New Year's picture doll.

Qiao Nian, Lu Xiao, and Qiao Guowen, these three working people, do the first thing they do after get off work every day: hug the two chubby babies.

They have good temperaments, don't cry or fuss, and go to sleep after eating their fill. Unlike other children, they don't wake up in the middle of the night for milk.

After eating and drinking my fill, I slept soundly until dawn.

Of course, adults have to get up twice in the middle of the night to change their diapers, but even while changing diapers, they sleep soundly.

In the words of the old lady next door, Mrs. Song, these two children came to repay a debt of gratitude.

I feel sorry not only for my mother, but also for my father, grandparents, and maternal grandparents.

At that moment, Wang Xueqin put down her things and went into the house with a smile to see the children.

The room was warm, so I took off my coat and hung it on the hook by the door before going over to check on the two children playing on the kang (a heated brick bed).

The middle room has now been turned into a children's toy room.

They usually play here. The toys that Lu Xiao and Qiao Guowen made for them in their spare time, as well as the toys sent by their grandparents and uncle, are all carefully stored away and placed in boxes.

Although the two children can't crawl yet, they will rummage through the box to find toys if it's placed in front of them.

They are very clever and don't require too much worry from adults.

The mother stayed in the room with the master's wife while they watched the children chat, and the father played chess with the master on the side.

For today's New Year's Eve dinner, Lu Xiao is the head chef, and Qiao Nian is helping out by giving advice.

She can't cook.

Lu Xiao had no intention of letting her do it.

"Niannian, do you want to go out?"

Lu Xiao turned to Qiao Nian and asked, "The smell of cooking oil is strong here. Why don't you go back to your room and rest?"
