Reborn as a Tough Army Wife

At the Luo Family, because Xu He visited, Fang Xiu couldn’t calm down anymore, making numerous mistakes—accidentally dropping several buns on the ground.

Zhou Yunmei felt very distressed and quickly stopped her, "Forget it, Fang Xiu, don’t bother anymore, with the way you are, these buns aren’t even enough to cover the ones you drop."

Luo Cuilan, who was sitting aside, also glanced at her, murmuring, "Exactly, acting as if she has done something guilty, all flustered."

These words from Luo Cuilan caused Fang Xiu to overreact. She suddenly stood up and glared at Luo Cuilan, "Who are you talking about? Who has done something guilty?"

Luo Cuilan gave her a sidelong glance, "Then it must be on purpose, to be lazy."

"It’s none of your business."

Seeing the two were about to start arguing again, Zhou Yunmei stopped Luo Cuilan, then said to Fang Xiu, "Okay, Fang Xiu, you go and make lunch. Call Zhiming to help start the fire, we’re too busy wrapping buns here to spare a hand."

Fang Xiu, having no desire to stay out in the courtyard, nodded and went into her room.

Once inside, she sat down beside the kang (a traditional Chinese heated bed), blankly watching Luo Zhiming, who was soundly asleep.

Luo Zhiming, not knowing what was happening, suddenly opened his eyes and stared at her, which so startled Fang Xiu that she sprang up from the kang.
