Chapter 1208 - Xia Yehuas Marriage (3) (1/2)

Qiao Lian was amazed.

This person, Uncle Lu, simply used every trick in the book.

Now he was even trying to please the daughter-in-law.

Qiao Lian grimaced as she heard Xia Yehua nag,, “You went to the market again? Why are you wandering around in a market all dressed up? The next time you want to eat anything in particular, can’t you just get the housekeeper to buy it?”

Uncle Li replied, “I just thought it’s something you’d like. Anyway, it’s just buying a chicken, it’s nothing. Even if you asked me to buy napkins, I’d do it.”

“Is this handsome uncle,” Qiao Lian thought, “really in his fifties?”

The things he was saying would turn a young girl scarlet and make her heart pound.

Indeed, Xia Yehua jumped to her feet with exasperation and turned completely red again. “You shameless old man, what nonsense are you saying? Huh, what are you talking about? I’m already having my menopause!”

Li Mao immediately said, “Oh, right, see? Before we know it, it’s menopause. We are really getting old and if you still don’t agree to marry me—”

“Oh, shut up I said!”

Li Mao obediently fell silent.

Still exasperated with the man, she lowered her voice and warned him, “I’m telling you, you’re not to speak a word in front of the children later.”

“Why?”

“Let me discuss this with them, immunise them so to speak. We have to ease them into it slowly.”

Li Mao nodded and said, “Ok, sure. I’ll take the chicken into the kitchen and prepare the soup.”

Xia Yehua nodded finally and craned her neck to glance outside. “Did you come here alone?”

“Uh huh.”
