Rebirth: My Dear Little Wife Is So Scheming

"Second Brother, should I just sneak away?" Bai Xiao whispered to him.

An Zhiyuan peeled the egg without changing his expression, "Don’t even think about it! Aren’t you afraid Big Sister will panic? When she comes storming into Yun Province with a large troop, that will be a sight to see. Don’t forget, New Year’s is coming, and everyone will have time to personally hunt you down." He placed the egg in her bowl.

Bai Xiao sighed, "Why is living our own life so difficult?" The whiny tone of her voice was quite endearing.

After finishing the dumplings in front of him, delicious, even after having them yesterday, he still hadn’t had his fill. The taste of the North was different from the South, where it was mostly rice, which Bai Xiao was almost sick of.

"You’d better just help your big sister and brother-in-law with their idea, or else, you can’t leave."

The two ate their meal obediently; An Zhiyuan urged Bai Xiao to entertain the three whose necks were craning in the living room, while he took his bowl and chopsticks to the kitchen to clean up.

Bai Ju saw her sister casually strolling over, and hearing An Zhiyuan’s clattering in the kitchen, felt a bit uneasy. Her sister, acting like a laid-back shopkeeper, was living too comfortably; she hoped that wouldn’t make Colonel An look down on her.

She scolded Bai Xiao in a low voice, "How can you let Colonel An do the dishes? We really aren’t short on time."

Couples must live together. If Bai Xiao was too capricious, it would inevitably lead to marital discord.
