After a while, Mr. Xu personally went to the kitchen to see the red carp that his eldest son had mentioned. When he saw it, his heart started racing.
Numerous people would go fishing by that river, occasionally catching some fish, but this was the first time that someone had caught such a large one. Even Mr. Xu, who had been living in the village for such a long time, has never seen such a huge catch.
“This is unbelievable! Absolutely unbelievable!”
Mr. Xu did not say another word. Instead, he immediately ran back to his room so that he could tell his wife about it.
When Mrs. Xu heard the tale, she was puzzled as well. This was indeed something strange. However, as she thought more about it, she still felt that it was unrelated to the green smoke at the ancestors’ grave.
“Dear, perhaps it’s because of this child in my stomach? I’ve heard people say that some children are born to bring good luck. Maybe this child is one of those people, born to bring good luck to the family?”
As Mrs. Xu was talking, Mr. Xu couldn’t help but frown. He would rather believe that it was because of the green smoke from the ancestors’ grave..
“Dear, you’re only about three months pregnant, this child isn’t even properly formed yet. Where would the luck come from? I really think it’s because I became my own ancestor!”
Mr. Xu said this with a serious face, but in the end, he got a slap from his wife on his arm.
Furious, she argued with him, “What nonsense are you talking about? Our youngest child is definitely going to be a lucky one!! You’re already a father, why would you say things like that?!”
Mrs. Xu furiously glared at her husband.
When Mr. Xu saw her angry eyes, he realized that he had said something wrong and naturally stopped arguing with Mrs. Xu.
He thought to himself, ‘Forget it. Why should a grown man like me argue with a pregnant woman?’
However, Mrs. Xu wasn’t ready to just let it go, starting an argument with him that was essentially a bloody battle. Well, obviously, it was just an argument and not a physical fight.
Mr. Xu knew that he was in the wrong. He always had an indisputable temperament, so he simply allowed his wife to continue screaming at him.
…
Fu Bao felt groggy, wondering what was going on?
She was an orphan who had been extremely lucky her entire life. She just got a promotion and had put down a deposit for a house near the city center. Who would have expected that she even won the lucky draw while buying the house and received a ten-day luxury trip, which she then sold for a hundred thousand yuan.
Shouldn’t she be refreshed because of all these happy events? Why was she so dizzy, feeling as if she had fallen into eternal darkness?
Plus, there were people nearby who were constantly talking amd they were very noisy.
‘Was this all a dream? Hmmm? I’m going to go back to sleep!’
Fu Bao, who was still confused with what was happening, subconsciously thought that it was because she was still half asleep and was dreaming. Since it was all a dream, she decided to continue sleeping and not think about it anymore.
As long as she slept, all her problems would go away.
Soon, Fu Bao went to sleep, all the disturbing noises around her soon disappeared.
…
Mrs. Xu continued nagging Mr. Xu for quite a while, but since she was the only one who was talking, it soon became boring.
“Dear, are you thirsty? Let me get you a glass of water to keep you hydrated!”
Mr Xu wasn’t quite used to the fact that his wife had stopped screaming at him within such a short time. He didn’t ask any questions, immediately assuming that it was because Mrs. Xu had gotten thirsty and decided to take a break from all that nagging.
After being married to her all these years, Mr. Xu had definitely learnt how to deal with his wife.
When Mrs. Xu heard her husband ask if she was thirsty and was getting her a glass of water, she snorted, no longer having the heart to say anything else.
Mr. Xu noticed that Mrs. Xu was no longer angry at him, he smiled and said, “Dear, you didn’t see it for yourself but the fish that our second son caught was at least thirty kilos! I’m thinking that it would fill up at least half of the pot in our house! What do you think? Should we have a drink or two? I won’t drink much. Just two cups!”
As Mrs. Xu was no longer angry at him, Mr. Xu stated his request while pouring her a cup of water.
“Sure, let’s drink,” Mrs. Xu nodded. “The green plum wine that I brewed last year should be ready by now.”
“Ummm…”
Mr. Xu hadn’t expected Mrs. Xu to say this. The drink that he was talking about wasn’t the green plum wine! Was that something a grown man like him would drink? Forget it! At least it was better than nothing. If he further complained about it, he might lose the chance to enjoy even this green plum wine.
Mr. Xu was always a man who was easily made content.
