Chapter 2307
Buying You the Best Burial Plots
He Yuzhu took a small sip of his drink and was slightly tipsy.
He hid the bottles again and even swapped the positions of a few bottles.
Liu Ting didn't interfere with his drinking, at least she never forced him to.
Unlike some families, they don't resort to cursing and physical violence whenever they see a man drinking, as if they want to end their lives together.
Of course, there are fewer women like that nowadays.
This was He Yuzhu, slightly tipsy, recalling some things from his past life.
Liu Ting would only serve him silently and gently, which was different from her previous scolding that was all bark and no bite.
Before drinking, He Yuzhu had to eat something to prevent stomach upset.
Tell He Yuzhu to drink less, after all, he's getting older.
····
And so on, just like the nagging Tang Monk.
But He Yuzhu is susceptible to this approach; he'll yield to gentleness but not to force.
Whenever he saw Liu Ting speaking to him with a concerned expression, he felt inexplicably guilty.
This shows that Liu Ting is also keeping up with the times and is constantly looking for the most comfortable way to get along with He Yuzhu.
After finishing his meal, He Yuzhu even brushed his teeth and took care of his personal hygiene.
I breathed on my palm and smelled it. I felt that there was no smell of alcohol left, and only then did I feel truly relieved.
He went into the study and picked up a book he hadn't read for several days.
A cup of strong tea, a lamp turned on, a radio switched on—it doesn't matter which channel or program it is.
It's about enjoying this freedom that belongs only to the soul.
Having been reborn for thirty years, it seems he has never had much quiet space that truly belongs to him.
Even when I used to go into my study alone, it was to find answers to problems I encountered at work.
It's hard to become successful without being free. Everyone thinks he's either lucky or capable, which is why he's where he is today.
But those people didn't know that He Yuzhu had climbed to his current position.
He was suppressing his nausea and vomiting. After solving his living problems, he had basically never stopped studying.
That's disgusting. He wasn't a smart person in his past life either.
But in order to make progress and take control of his own destiny, He Yuzhu has spent countless hours studying ancient books and professional texts.
If you can't understand it or can't get into it, then you just grit your teeth and keep reading it over and over again.
He doesn't aspire to become a professional scholar in any particular field; all he wants is to avoid appearing ignorant when chatting with people like Lao Niu or Chen Yong.
"What happy thing happened?"
Why did you decide to drink today? As he squinted, he felt a weight on his body.
When he opened his eyes, he saw Liu Ting draping a piece of clothing over his shoulders.
Seeing that he had sat up straight, Liu Ting asked gently.
He Yuzhu didn't know how long he had been in the study.
It's like when I woke up, in the quiet room, I suddenly came back to life.
The three children chattered excitedly in the living room, telling each other about the interesting things that had happened that day.
Under the dim light, only the couple was in the study.
He Yuzhu put his arm around Liu Ting's slender waist; this change only occurred after Liu Ting went to the restaurant.
He rested his chin on his wife's waist and hip bone, and said in a muffled voice, "Da Mao went south."
He simply stated it in a plain tone, but Liu Ting sensed a sense of frustration in He Yuzhu's words.
"What, you want to go too?" Liu Ting stroked He Yuzhu's head and asked curiously.
Having been married for a long time, Liu Ting knew very well that even the strongest man has moments of vulnerability.
At this moment, He Yuzhu needed her gentleness and comfort.
“No, freedom…” He Yuzhu again expressed his meaning with two short words. Liu Ting couldn’t help but chuckle.
Although He Yuzhu's words were unclear, she understood what he meant.
This shows that He Yuzhu envies Xu Damao's freedom.
If he wants to see his wife and children, he can take a month's leave and go directly to the south.
In the morning, while He Yuzhu was at work, this girl made a long-distance call to tell him about Xu Shengli taking him to the beach to enjoy the sea breeze and drink coconut juice.
Of course, there are also beauties who wear one-piece swimsuits.
Although not much is exposed, her graceful figure is still pleasing to the eye.
According to what Xu Damao boasted to him, his little fat son is now encouraging him to retire early.
Xu Shengli acquired a plot of land for homesteading in a small fishing village in the south, in the name of his wife, Deng Yuzhen.
I'm planning to build a huge house, the kind where you can see the brightly lit Hong Kong Island across the water at night.
To be honest, He Yuzhu was a little jealous.
The happy life he had always wanted was taken by that bastard Xu Damao ahead of time.
In a couple of years, a little poem will become quite popular, won't it?
"...Facing the sea, with spring flowers in bloom."
He Yuzhu could imagine how beautiful that scene would be.
Okay, okay.
We're not sad anymore.
"Once the children are all grown up and have their own families, I'll go wherever you want," Liu Ting said, patting He Yuzhu's back to comfort him as if he were a child.
Why did you have so many children in the first place?
"If it were just Yuanyuan, we could all retire," He Yuzhu muttered.
However, he knew that these words would be detrimental to family harmony, so he spoke in a very low voice.
"I washed the dishes today, and I got two yuan for it!" Little Fourth Brother shouted in the living room.
Liu Ting pulled He Yuzhu's arm, trying to pull him out of his dejection.
He Yuzhu is easy to pull up; he gets up with just one pull.
Liu Ting, holding He Yuzhu's hand, said as they walked out, "Let's get rid of the fourth one first. That brat is too noisy."
He Yuzhu walked out of the study and saw the fourth son jumping on the sofa with a green bill in his hand.
He pointed at the fourth brother and said, "I'll throw you into the trash heap."
Then, pointing at He An, he said, "I'll find you a family to marry into..."
Finally, he pointed at the small insect, thought for a long time, and said, "Never mind, you're a good child, let's keep it for now."
The three children were completely bewildered.
He An ran over in small steps, glanced up at He Yuzhu, then turned to Liu Ting and asked, "What happened to my dad?"
Liu Ting smiled and said, "Your dad is jealous that you guys can make money."
He An, with his sweet tongue, immediately said, "Dad, when I make a lot of money in the future, I'll buy you a mansion and a luxury car..."
The little bug following behind her was more practical; she directly took out the two yuan she had earned that day and handed it to He Yuzhu, which made He Yuzhu blush.
To motivate the children, Liu Ting paid her three children a decent wage, and all of them were paid daily.
Now, everyone's eyes turned to the fourth brother, who had not yet made a statement.
The fourth son seemed a little dazed. After thinking for a long time, he finally said, "Dad, Mom, when I make money in the future, I'll definitely buy you the best burial plots..."
So, that brat didn't get a beating for nothing. (End of Chapter)
