Chapter 197 - 189 Meat Stews until Tender in the Pot
"Mom, I really found out today." Lu Yun also didn’t dare to laugh anymore and quickly snuggled up to her mother, hugging her arm and acting coquettishly.
"Oh--"
Xia Yuan dragged out the sound, completely unmoved, and even glanced sideways at Shitou. Although she had agreed to accept their relationship, it didn’t mean she would easily forgive their secrecy. Did they think she was a sick cat just because she wasn’t roaring like a tiger?
"...I was wrong."
In front of Xia Yuan, Shitou immediately became as docile as a toothless tiger, meekly bowing his head to admit his mistake.
"Explain where you went wrong?" Xia Yuan took on the same authoritative tone she used to schooled Lu Jinsheng, now using it on Shitou...
Not until they returned to their room that evening did Lu Aiguo still look at Xia Yuan with admiration, "Wife, you really have a way with words. In no time, you got everything out of Shitou. Turns out, he’s been contemplating this for years, and he really kept it even from Xiaoyun. But don’t you think Xiaoyun agreed a bit too readily?"
"Is there something wrong with agreeing readily?" Xia Yuan cast a sidelong glance at Lu Aiguo.
"Uh, do you really approve of them? Because no matter how I think about it, it feels a bit odd. Suddenly, my brother becomes my son-in-law, and it’s something I’m really not used to," Lu Aiguo said with a troubled expression on his face.
"What’s wrong with keeping the meat in our own pot? Besides, I think Shitou is a good choice. Having him as a son-in-law is certainly better than a brother. I’d really regret giving such a good man to another family as their son-in-law. So, it’s Xiaoyun who has the better judgment."
