The Comeback of the Charming Farmer's Wife

Time passed quickly, and despite Ye Zi’an’s reluctance, the time for him to leave had arrived.

"It’s better to let Sister-in-law Li and Brother Li go with you. They can also help keep an eye on the harem," Ye Zi’an had decided to set off on the first day of August. Thus, on July 30th, she once again checked and reorganized the things she had prepared in advance.

"Fine, my wife can make the arrangements. But leave a couple of men from Ye Yi’s group for you."

Though each of the six men in Ye Yi’s group had their own strengths, their martial arts skills were fundamentally very strong, so he felt assured leaving two of them behind at home.

"No need. Incidents like what happened to Ye Ziping can’t possibly happen all the time. Take everyone with you. Mianyang is an unfamiliar place, and it’s comforting to have more people by your side."

"But..."

"No buts. We’re just in the village, and I’ll buy some more servants soon. At the same time, I’ll purchase a few who are skilled in martial arts to guard the home. Rest assured, and besides, now that the children are born, I’ve regained my strength. Don’t you trust me?"

She knew he was scared because of the bandit attack on the Yang Family before, but since then, the Yang Family had hired some guards, and it was natural for her family to do the same. As long as they didn’t face hundreds or thousands of attackers, there wouldn’t be any issues.

"Xiaxia..."

"Stop frowning like that." He had been like this since returning from the county town yesterday, and she knew it was because he didn’t want to leave, and she felt the same. "You stay here with our son. I’ll go down and instruct Sister-in-law Li about a few things."

However, before she could reach the door, Ye Zi’an suddenly brought up, "Wife, how much pocket money are you giving me for this trip?"

Yang Chuxia looked at him in astonishment, seeing his eyes gleaming and expectantly looking at her, and she suddenly burst out laughing.

Before she could respond, he added, "Are you going to have someone send it to me monthly, or are you giving me a whole year’s allowance at once? My love, I have just this small hobby; please don’t deprive me of it?"

This matter of pocket money was something that Ye Zi’an had just thought of spontaneously when he heard that she was going to talk to Sister-in-law Li, knowing she intended to hand over the servants’ matters and his daily expenses to Sister-in-law Li and Brother Li.

When he traveled to Capital City last time, his wife had first given a portion of the daily expenses to Sister-in-law Li, while Brother Li kept some aside as his spending money. In the end, she gave him another portion of money as a reserve.

Last time, his wife talked about deducting his pocket money. Although she didn’t mention it again later, there was no clear decision. So, he thought it better to take advantage of the situation and state his request, or else what would he do the next time he saw something nice and didn’t have the money to buy it?

"Pfft..." Upon hearing this, Yang Chuxia laughed and decided not to go to Sister-in-law Li for the moment, "I had almost forgotten about that had you not mentioned it. What was that about the seven-colored butterfly jewelry? Why did Mu Shaofeng say it cost thirty thousand taels, yet you claimed it was only fourteen thousand taels? You profligate husband, fourteen thousand taels! You’ve squandered the dowry meant for our son’s future wife."

As soon as she brought up this matter again, Ye Zi’an felt somewhat uneasy and annoyed at himself. After that conversation, his wife didn’t bring it up again, which clearly indicated she had forgotten. So why was he digging up this issue again now? He really was digging his own grave!

Seeing that he no longer hid his expression and his eyes started whirling in a way that reminded her of little Yangyang, she found it very amusing. Sometimes this man could be so childish, just like a kid.
