Dressed up as a Real Mom

Chapter 47(1): New Year

on March 04, 2022

The troops have to celebrate the New Year. Wei Jianwei has recently been idle and has been spending more time at home. It just so happens that He Xiaoyun has menstruation again these past few days. For many things, Jianwei won't let her work and just does it himself.

During the New Year, Wei Yuanhang asked for fried meatballs so He Xiaoyun went outside and asked Xu Lanxiang for advice. Then, He Xiaoyun instructed Wei Jianwei to fry a basket of pork and radish meatballs and then make a southern rice candy. One sweet and the other salty snacks were often sought after by children.

In this kind of cold weather, the child could not be more comfortable eating snacks while watching the roasting on the stove. If it weren't for the fear of teaching the child bad conduct, He Xiaoyun would like to eat the food on the bed while being served (Of course, by Jianwei  ).

He Xiaoyun has finished reading two books of her own as it’s not easy to go out these days. Without going to the bookstore, she has been knitting with woolen yarn all day long. She has knitted a scarf, sweater and woolen trousers, a hat for Wei Yuanhang, and Wei Jianwei’s gloves and earmuffs. 

Leisurely, it's New Year's Eve.

He Xiaoyun brought hot water, bathed Wei Yuanhang, and put him on a new cotton coat.

"The new clothes can't get dirty, nor can you run downstairs to play in the snow, do you understand?" Xiaoyuan asked the child.

Wei Yuanhang vigorously nodded, "I'm going to play with Rongrong and won't go downstairs."

"Auntie Xu is busy, don't make any trouble."

"I know." The little kid responded, and then the kid ran next door.

Seeing him out, He Xiaoyun and Wei Jianwei began to prepare for the New Year's Eve dinner.

Pork, chicken, and fish may not be considered rich, but they have everything they should.

Wei Jianwei took the knife and neatly chopped the chicken into small pieces.

The chicken was bought a few days ago, they don't need to worry about it spoiling, for, at this season, the cold was a natural storage.

Seeing Jianwei's quick movements and cold expression, He Xiaoyun thought about his embarrassment when he was at her mother's house a few months ago, chasing the big cock all over the yard, and could not help but tease the person: "Lucky that I didn't buy a live chicken, eh? Did you have fun chasing it back then?"

Wei Jianwei glanced at her, didn't speak, but suddenly came over, kissed her on the lips, then stood up straight, and continued to chop the chicken coldly.

He Xiaoyun was caught off guard and was kissed. It happened that after he finished kissing her, she still looked as if nothing had happened. She stared at the man for a while, then pinched his waist and said, "Fine, I let you pretend for now." (pretending to be unbothered.)

Wei Jianwei's waist muscles shook sharply, and the chicken in his hand almost slipped out.

The man's unexpected reaction made He Xiaoyun think she discovered a new world. With a malicious smile on her face, she asked: "Are you ticklish?"

As soon as her voice fell, she attacked again, coming with both hands, pinching each of his sides.

"Is it ticklish? Or is it itchy?" (Dear Xiaoyun, I don't think you're tickling him but provoking him instead.)

Wei Jianwei finally couldn't endure it, he dropped the knife, turned around, and with one arm, trapped the naughty person in his arms.

"Hahahaha...You really are ticklish!" He Xiaoyun was so happy! She rarely had the upper hand in front of this man.

Wei Jianwei looked at her helplessly and said, "Don't make any trouble."

He Xiaoyun stuck out her tongue, "Who is making trouble with you? I'm just asking if you're ticklish."

As she said that, she tickled the man again and ran away happily before he acted. As soon as she ran out of the kitchen, she saw Xu Lanxiang walking in with a bowl of dumplings.

Earlier, He Xiaoyun said that she wasn't good at making dumplings, so Xu Lanxiang told her not to worry as her family would make more for her.

"Thank you, Sister Xu." He Xiaoyun hurriedly took the bowl over.

"I heard you laughing outside the door, why are you so happy?" Xu Lanxiang asked and then looked at them.

He Xiaoyun put the dumplings on the table, took a look at Wei Jianwei, and said with a smile, "I am laughing at him, such a big person is actually ticklish." (If I ever got a boyfriend, I want him to be ticklish too so that I can win every tickle war.)

Xu Lanxiang oh'ed,  it sounded long and deliberately teasing.

He Xiaoyun had a bad premonition, and so she heard the other person say: "Everyone says that ticklish men love their wives. No wonder you are so happy, Xiaoyun."

"Sister Xu!" He Xiaoyun said straight, "I didn't mean that."

Xu Lanxiang said with a smile: "This kind of thing still needs to be guessed? Isn't the truth presented in everyone's eyes?"

He Xiaoyun can't retort, so she quickly changed the subject, took out a bottle of cans from the cabinet, and said, “I bought two bottles that day, this one is for Rongrong and the others to eat.”

"I don't want it," Xu Lanxiang waved her hand, turned her head, and walked out, "You keep it for Xiaoyuan."

He Xiaoyun chased up, "It's not for you, but for the children. Take it quickly, or I'll send it to your house."

The two pushed and pulled for a while, Xu Lanxiang couldn't win, so she had to accept it, "Really...this thing is so expensive, it's a waste for them to eat it, don't buy it next time."

"I know, I will only buy one once a year." He Xiaoyun responded readily.
