(X) Touching
After a satisfying release, Li Xia lay exhausted on the bed, closing her eyes to enjoy the
afterglow of her orgasm. Once she regained her strength, she got up to grab some tissues to wipe her disheveled lower body. While wiping,
she listened to what was happening outside; she didn't know if her father-in-law had finished showering. After quickly cleaning herself, she found
a blanket, checked on her son, and quietly turned off the light. Stretching, she didn't bother with
further tidying, covered herself with the blanket, and drifted off to sleep comfortably.
While her daughter-in-law drifted off to sleep comfortably, Wei Xi, after experiencing a harrowing scene
, couldn't fall asleep for a long time. He struggled to soothe his genitals, his mind filled with his daughter-in-law's
alluring body. Her towering breasts were dazzling, and between her wide-open legs,
a plump, fleshy mound of flesh was embedded between her full, rounded pubic mound, making one yearn to feast upon it.
Tossing and turning, this was the image that appeared every time he closed his eyes. Wei Xi took out a cigarette, lit it,
took two deep drags, and exhaled a long puff. His tense heart, rapidly pounding chest, and his erect
penis, hard and violently erect, made him hesitant to release his urges. Lying on the kang (heated brick bed), he struggled to suppress his desire. Finally,
after smoking three cigarettes in a row, he clamped the summer quilt between his legs, gritted his teeth, closed his eyes, and endured
it.
A long, heavy rain had stopped sometime during the day, and yesterday, Wei Xi had endured for over an hour
before finally falling asleep—something that had never happened before. What surprised him even more was that he had a
wet dream, the kind of dream he only had when he was young. Logically, he shouldn't have such a dream at his age.
In his hazy state, he was transported back to when he was seventeen or eighteen. In his dream, he was actually engaging in marital relations.
The figures in the dream were blurry, and he tried desperately to see who they were. In that instant, he ejaculated and
then woke up abruptly.
Wei Xi smiled bitterly to himself. He had seen something he shouldn't have, then endured it for over an hour before falling asleep,
and then this ridiculous thing happened—nocturnal emission! Wasn't this just shooting himself in the foot? "Sigh,
how to put it," Wei Xi comforted himself while cleaning the sticky substance from his genitals.
After getting up around six o'clock, Wei Xi took his underwear to the backyard and hurriedly washed away yesterday's filth with clean water. Then
, he hurriedly went to the kitchen to reheat the fish soup from yesterday, added two steamed buns to the pot, and returned
to the living room after finishing. He opened the back door and looked at the vegetables he had planted in the backyard.
The cucumber and tomato trellises were all blown about, and the backyard was muddy after the heavy rain.
He trudged through the mud to the vegetable garden, where the cilantro was a mess, and
many of the lettuce plants had been knocked down.
Looking at the scene, Wei Xi thought to himself, "The ground is soaked through, and the vegetables are almost ruined.
" He went back to the wall, picked up a bamboo pole, and started to re-erect the trellises. Before he knew it, time had
passed. During this time, his daughter-in-law, Li Xia, got up and greeted him. Wei Xi didn't even look up and said, "The food is in the pot.
Eat up. The child hasn't woken up yet, so hurry up and eat." It wasn't
until he heard the baby crying that Wei Xi realized over an hour had passed. His grandson was probably
hungry again. Li Xia, having finished her meal, stood at the back door holding the baby and called out, "Dad, eat too,
don't bother anymore."
"Okay, I'm almost done," Wei Xi replied, tightening his grip and speeding up his work. Seeing that he had almost finished
, he dusted off his hands and went to the door.
Taking off his boots and putting on his slippers, Wei Xi went back inside. The food was already laid out on the table.
He washed his hands and sat down to eat. Li Xia was breastfeeding the baby, but Wei Xi didn't look at her much, just
eating in silence.
After a simple breakfast, Wei Xi cleared the dishes and took them to the kitchen. A lot of the crucian carp soup in the bowl
had been drunk, which pleased the old man. As he walked to the living room door, he saw his daughter-in-law come
out with a glass of milk. At that moment, the usually quiet child cried out again. His daughter-in-law put the glass
on the refrigerator and turned to go back into the bedroom.
As he passed the bedroom, Wei Xi glanced at his daughter-in-law playing with the child. Her back was turned to him,
and he felt a little strange. He quickly went to the refrigerator, picked up the calcium milk his daughter-in-law had made for him, and
muttered to himself, "Having a child is always like this. I made the calcium milk and then I was called back. You
understand so much once you become a parent." Wei Xi was also feeling sorry for his daughter-in-law's hardships.
Looking at the calcium milk in his glass, Wei Xi's mind was filled with the scene from yesterday. His daughter-in-law's nearly naked
body was right in front of him without any obstruction. Although it was through the window, and only a crack in the curtains
, that exciting moment was unforgettable, especially the cleavage between her legs and
the trembling of her breasts, both of which were wet and still so clearly displayed before his eyes, brushing into his
brain.
The old man picked up the cup. The calcium milk in the cup had an unusual smell. Wei Xi, somewhat suspicious, tilted her head back and
swallowed the milk. "Hmm, this calcium milk tastes strange. It's slightly sweet and has an
odd flavor. Is it expired?" Wei Xi wondered. She took the cup to her daughter-in-law's door and
asked, "Xiaxia, is the calcium milk you made for Dad expired? It tastes strange."
Li Xia, who was playing with the child, casually replied, "This child is really having a good time today. Oh, I haven't made it for you yet
." Sensing something was wrong, Li Xia turned around and saw her father-in-law leaning against the doorway, holding an
empty cup. Li Xia stared blankly, mouth agape.
"Ah, isn't this the calcium milk you made for me…?" Seeing her daughter-in-law's expression, the old man seemed stunned as well
.
"Dad, you're so mean! You clearly drank it and you still say things like that!" Li Xia's face flushed slightly. Seeing her father-in-law's
expression, she felt inexplicably strange, a mix of shyness and annoyance at her father-in-law, especially seeing his
innocent act after doing something wrong.
A thought suddenly struck her, and Li Xia had an idea. "Dad, how does it taste?"
"Ah! Oh, okay, okay," the old man was also taken aback by the sudden situation.
He mumbled a few words and was about to flee the scene when Li Xia added sharply, "Dad, if you want some
, I'll squeeze you another cup." Wei Xi was so frightened that he ran away in panic. Seeing her father-in-law's reaction, Li Xia couldn't help but
laugh out loud. At the same time, little Chengcheng in the crib also giggled along with him.
After cleaning the cup, Wei Xi returned to his room, grabbed a cigarette, put it in his pocket, and then went to
the backyard. He lit one as he walked. In the past few days, his daughter-in-law had made casual jokes time and time again.
Even though he had seen through things and had joked around with her, why was he still so impatient? As he thought
about it, he remembered the milk he had just drunk. It was sweet, warm, and thick. It was his
daughter-in-law's milk, squeezed from her full breasts.
He couldn't help but smack his lips, as if recalling the taste from earlier. A smile spread across the old man's face
. He thought to himself, "Hehe, I'll take this opportunity to tease you a bit, so I won't always be the one being passively
mocked, haha." The thought of seeing his daughter-in-law blushing roused Wei Xi. The
scene, especially a middle-aged man squatting on the ground with a shovel, turning over the soil while inexplicably laughing,
seemed rather strange.
This childlike feeling seemed to transport him back many years. After laughing, Wei Xi temporarily put aside
his thoughts and busied himself in the backyard.
Meanwhile, Li Xia, seeing her father-in-law flee in disarray, felt a mix of embarrassment and excitement at regaining control of the situation,
her mischievousness on full display. Especially the way her father-in-law ran away headlong, like a defeated rooster—
the amusing antics between the old man and the young girl were truly best left untold.
After working hard for half the morning, Wei Xi cleared the vacant lot, preparing to plant some more vegetables they often eat. He squatted down,
picked up a sticky clod of soil, looked at it, and muttered to himself, "This soil needs to dry for another day or two, otherwise it
'll be too wet." Looking at his garden, he felt very satisfied. This large plot of land in the backyard
was perfect for growing a garden; besides eating his own food, it could also provide his son with fresh vegetables—how
wonderful!
Around eleven o'clock, while her son was sleeping, Li Xia went to the kitchen in the front yard,
cracked some eggs from the refrigerator, and made egg pancakes. This was convenient, and perfect for someone with little appetite in the summer
.
After making the egg pancakes, Li Xia was slightly sweating. If it hadn't rained yesterday, it would have
been unbearably hot today. But at this time, the sun was shining brightly, and the temperature was gradually rising.
"Dad, stop working, let's eat!" Li Xia called out to her father from the back door steps.
"Okay, I'm coming," Wei Xi put down his tools, went to the well, filled a basin with cool water,
washed the dirt off his hands, and returned to the living room.
"Is the child asleep?" Wei Xi asked his daughter-in-law. "Yes, he's been asleep for half an hour. I made some egg pancakes,
have some," Li Xia said, gently bringing one to her mouth.
"Look at me, I've turned over all the empty space in the backyard. We'll plant some vegetables soon, so
it'll be more convenient for us to eat," Wei Xi said, also bringing an egg pancake to his mouth.
"Dad, don't work so hard, it's not like we don't have anything to eat," Li Xia said
, looking at the sweat on the old man's face.
Wei Xi shook his head and said, "Hey, isn't it better to eat fresh? The vegetables you buy can't compare to the cleanliness of those harvested locally."
"So stubborn," Li Xia pouted. Seeing his daughter-in-law's playful expression, Old Man Wei chuckled,
his mischievous thoughts resurfacing. "The crucian carp soup is good, isn't it? Drink more."
"I've had plenty, I can't take it anymore," Li Xia said, oblivious to the hidden meaning in her father-in-law's words.
"It's just soup, what's wrong with it?" Wei Xi pressed on. Hearing her father-in-law's question, Li Xia
glanced at him sitting next to her. He was staring intently at her chest. Li Xia deliberately shrugged
her chest and drawled, "Dad... it's here, I can't take it here, what should I do?" This time,
she was wearing a bra under her tank top, concealing her ample bosom and preventing Wei Xi from getting a deeper look.
"Hmph," Li Xia snorted again, seeing her father-in-law licking his lips and remaining silent.
Amidst this ambiguous atmosphere, the father-in-law and daughter-in-law enjoyed their lunch. After the old man finished eating,
Li Xia started clearing the table. Wei Xi offered to help, but his daughter-in-law refused. The old man then leaned against the back door,
smoking a cigarette. After finishing, Li Xia closed the front door and went back to her room, taking off her bra.
She was only wearing a tank top and planned to take a shower. The old man was smoking with his back to her
. "Smoke less, take a break at noon," Li Xia said to her father-in-law smoking by the back door.
"Oh, just one more puff, a couple more," Wei Xi said, turning his head. As he said this, he noticed his daughter-in-law
's trembling breasts, which were alluring. His eyes were uncontrollably fixed on her chest.
Seeing her father-in-law's unbridled gaze, and how he dared to say, "Suck some more?", Li Xia, thinking about it,
put her hands on her hips and retorted without showing any weakness, "Come on, if you want to suck, come over here."
The way she stood there with her hands on her hips and challenged him should have been a fierce and ruthless look, but in Wei Xi's eyes, he saw
his daughter-in-law's coquettishness and coquettish charm. This made him unable to resist doing something a little
out of line. He deliberately pouted and pretended to suck.
Li Xia wasn't angry at all; instead, she was amused by her father-in-law's actions. She continued without backing down, "Dad,
I'm waiting for you, come on over!"
Seemingly used to joking, the two temporarily forgot their awkwardness. Seeing his daughter-in-law's challenging expression and
teasing tone, Wei Xi took one last drag of his cigarette, tossed the butt outside, and stood up to stand in front of his daughter-in-law.
He glanced at her breasts through her suspenders, the clear nipples right before his eyes. With a mixture of surprise and half-seriousness, he
said, "You said it, I'm here!" Then, he closed his eyes, shook his head, pouted as if wanting to nurse
, and slowly lowered his head.
Seeing her father-in-law making such a joke for the first time, Li Xia's playful spirit was also aroused. She cooperated by moving forward...
She leaned forward unconsciously, and in that unconsciousness, Wei Xi's pouting lips touched
something damp and soft. "Ah!" they both cried out simultaneously. Wei Xi's eyes snapped open; the
firm, flesh-colored nipple was so clear—she had clearly touched it. Her daughter-in-law, Li Xia, was also
startled. Her casual leaning forward had unexpectedly resulted in her father-in-law touching her. She felt a jolt,
and her body trembled involuntarily.
Wei Xi was bent over, Li Xia stood with her hands on her hips, and time seemed to stand still. They remained in that position,
the milky scent of her breasts wafting into Wei Xi's nostrils—so fragrant. Finally
, they both snapped out of their daze, their faces flushed, unsure of what to say or
do.
Finally, Wei Xi straightened up and broke the awkward silence, saying, "Oh, aren't you going to take a shower?
I'm going to take a nap too."
"Oh, oh, I'll go take a shower then," Li Xia replied, completely defeated for the first time, leaving her trembling and frozen in place
.
Wei Xi immediately returned to his room and closed the door. He felt both embarrassed and somewhat pleased
; this victory seemed to have increased the rigor of his jokes. Although this joke had gone a bit too far, and although
his heart was pounding, overall, it felt good—yes, it felt good.
Seeing her father-in-law close the door to rest, Li Xia stuck out her tongue, her face still flushed, and shyly walked into the bathroom.
Thinking about what had just happened, Li Xia covered her face, her heart churning.
After tidying her hair, she turned on the tap, and as the water washed over her, Li Xia
slowly calmed herself. After showering for over twenty minutes, just as she finished drying herself and hadn't even had time to put on
her clothes, she heard a child crying inside the house.
Li Xia opened the bathroom door and peeked outside, finding nothing amiss. The child's agonizing
cries, in particular, made her initial panic and embarrassment resurface. She grabbed her clothes and tiptoed out
. The weather was already warm, and cicadas were chirping loudly in the trees. She thought,
"After all this time, my father-in-law should be asleep by now," and rushed out, clothes in hand. When she tiptoed
into the bedroom, she was once again stunned by what she saw.
Her father-in-law was in his room, soothing the child. He had heard the noise behind him, and
he turned around abruptly, still holding the baby.
The scene was quite intriguing, almost like a dream unfolding in the afternoon room: A soft, fragrant body, delicately red, a shy, alluring beauty,
the crying of a child and grandchild bringing about a happy event.
The father-in-law and daughter-in-law were once again in an awkward situation, this time with an intensity
never before experienced. Li Xia's beautiful body was fully revealed to her father-in-law:
her fair and shapely figure, her neatly styled black hair flowing down her back, a single strand
cascading over her forehead adding a touch of allure; her eyes, misty with a captivating light, her face radiating a youthful charm, her cherry-like lips slightly
parted, revealing a tenderness rarely seen before.
Beneath her jade-like neck stood two delicate, untouched breasts, like blossoms emerging from the water, so delightful and fresh.
Down her smooth abdomen, faint stretch marks evoked images of vast plains, inviting one to unleash
their power and roam freely.
Wei Xi felt awkward, but his eyes involuntarily swept downwards. The dewdrops hanging in the bushes were so fresh
, and a crescent moon was clearly visible through the neat, dark bushes—a treasure of a daughter, full and clean, a
perfect inverted triangle, the place that gives life, the necessary path to feel the radiance of motherhood. Today
, he had actually seen it. And those long, straight, plump legs, perfectly proportioned, neither too plump nor too
slender. Wei Xi's heart surged with excitement, and his body trembled.
At first, Li Xia was also uncomfortable. Her smooth body had been seen by her father-in-law, and many things came to mind
. In that instant, Li Xia actually smiled, a smile so shy and charming. "Dad~~, are
n't you going to turn around?" This sharp shout was like a blow to the head. "Oh, I won't look, I won't look," Wei Xi stammered,
then swallowed and quickly turned away. Seeing this, Li Xia quickly put on her skirt and
camisole.
After a moment of silence, Li Xia pouted and said, "Hmph, you've already seen it, aren't you embarrassed?"
Then she walked up to her father-in-law and pinched his arm. "Oh~ oh, sorry, no, sorry,"
Wei Xi said with a dry laugh, looking at his daughter-in-law who had put on her clothes.
"How does it feel?" Li Xia quickly regained her composure and became cheerful and playful. "It's alright,
no, I'm sorry," Wei Xi said, realizing his words were inappropriate. Li Xia patted her chest and pulled
her father-in-law to sit on the bed. "You don't need to blame yourself. Awkward things are inevitable. Let's not take it to heart
, okay?" Looking at her daughter-in-law's flushed face and big eyes, Wei Xi nodded. "Yes, I
know."
After this incident, the awkwardness between them gradually subsided. "The baby woke up just now, and I felt
you weren't back yet, so I came to check on you." "Yes, it's all for the child, for the baby. That way,
when we encounter awkward situations, we shouldn't be embarrassed either." Hearing his daughter-in-law's explanation, Wei Xi took the initiative
to reach out and grasp her hand, saying, "Yes, this time, I really understand." Seeing
the gratitude in the old man's eyes, Li Xia smiled, not pulling her hand away, letting her father-in-law hold it.
"The baby must be hungry. He had milk at 11 a.m. Give him to me, I'll feed him," Li Xia said to her father-in-law
. Wei Xi naturally handed the baby over. The little guy, sensing his mother's presence, became even more excited.
"Look at him, so lively and energetic, he's truly our darling," Wei Xi said happily.
"Yes, before having a baby, I didn't know how hard it was for parents. Since he came along, I understand it more and
more deeply. Dad, what do you think?" Li Xia looked at her father-in-law understandingly. What she meant was that
she knew how hard it was for him.
Wei Xi wasn't stupid; he understood the implication from his daughter-in-law's words. "This is what parents should do."
"Love isn't something that's easy or difficult. Seeing their child grow up happily makes parents happy."
"Look at him, he's really hungry, he couldn't wait to grab it," Li Xia said
, gesturing towards her father-in-law. Wei Xi leaned over and could see clearly that his grandson's little mouth was wrapped around his mother's nipple, sucking
gently.
"The soup you made for me, ever since I drank it, my milk has become really engorged. Do you want some?"
Li Xia said calmly. Hearing his daughter-in-law's frankness, Wei Xi hesitated for a moment, then
smiled naturally. He seemed to have overcome his previous embarrassment and continued his daughter-in-law's words
, "If it's really engorged, you can express it. Expressing it is good for you too." Wei Xi didn't explicitly say whether he would eat it or not
.
Often, unspoken understanding allows emotions to blend together more deeply. That kind of feeling needs
time to be felt, needs to be experienced through physical contact.
"Yesterday, Jianjian called you, asking when he'd be back?" Wei Xi blurted out, immediately sensing
something was amiss. Wasn't this revealing he'd discovered something last night? But words spoken are words that can't be taken back
.
Hearing her father-in-law say this, the previously calmed atmosphere stirred again.
"Ah, oh, Jianjian called and said he'd be back," Li Xia's face flushed repeatedly, she didn't even
know how many times it had happened. Thinking about the series of events that had occurred today, she felt embarrassed several times, calmed down several times, then
felt embarrassed again and calmed down again.
She took a deep breath and asked, "Dad, how did you know Jianjian called me?"
Her daughter-in-law's question seemed like a test. Wei Xi's mind raced. "Oh, yesterday,
I heard you on the phone when I came into the living room. At that time, I thought it must have been Jianjian calling," he said, unsure
if his explanation made sense.
However, their eyes met again. Li Xia saw a sly glint in the old man's eyes. She stuck out
her tongue, turned back to look at the baby nursing in her arms, and said, seemingly to herself but also to her father-in-law, "Dad, it's
your own fault for not taking care of yourself. You've sacrificed so much for the family. Consider all of this my
way of caring for you, my concern for you."
She paused for a moment, then looked up at her father-in-law. Wei Xi, hearing his daughter-in-law's
words, lowered his head in silence, savoring the moment. His daughter-in-law's words swirled in his mind, and suddenly,
he understood. He smiled sheepishly and said, "Thank you." Then he
lowered his head again, turning to his grandson in his daughter-in-law's arms. At this moment, the little boy was suckling at the breast,
the veins on his full, white breasts bulging with the fullness of milk. Their back-and-forth
banter, their frequent eye contact, was subtly ambiguous, yet their
unspoken understanding brought them even closer. Those two parallel lines, unknowingly
, were gradually drawing nearer, though neither of them realized they were about
to merge.
(To be continued)
(XI) Night Talk 1
Wei Xi and Li Xia, having experienced jokes, awkwardness, calm, further awkwardness, explanations, and mutual understanding,
had completely transformed their relationship from that of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to that of father and daughter. They seemed to have reached a consensus on how to deal with awkwardness, and both had,
through self-encouragement, abandoned their initial shyness.
In fact, if they had been more open-minded, facing reality together, seeing through awkwardness, and breaking free from it
, there wouldn't have been many problems. However, in most cases, no one dared to break through this barrier
, thus creating many misunderstandings.
Wei Xi's care for his grandson is now genuine and increasingly devoted.
He no longer awkwardly avoids his daughter-in-law's breastfeeding or milking sessions as before; he even naturally
takes the warm milk from her.
Seeing her father-in-law's resolve and ability to let go of such issues makes Li Xia very happy.
Around nine o'clock in the morning, the child's maternal grandfather called to ask about his daughter, "Xiaxia, are you
doing well in the countryside these days?"
Li Xia gently replied, "Yes, I'm doing very well. Xiao Yong even brought some crucian carp from his father-in-law
. Your grandson is doing well too
." The child's grandfather added, "That's good, that's good. By the way, don't just think about yourself. Your husband
is taking such good care of you, so you should show him respect. Treat him as if your father is by your side."
Wei Xi was beside Li Xia when she answered the phone. He also heard what his in-laws said on the phone. He
was very grateful to his in-laws. For someone who had been widowed for so long, this kind of open and uninhibited relationship with his relatives helped Wei
Xi gradually let go of what he considered awkward situations.
Watching the elderly couple listening quietly to her, Li Xia, like a spoiled little girl, wriggled and said,
"How could I not take care of my father-in-law? He's right here listening to me. Look at me now, both fathers love me.
How could I dare say anything against it?"
Hearing his daughter's answer, her grandfather nodded in satisfaction and told her to hand the phone to her in-laws. Taking the phone
, Wei Xi laughed heartily and said first, "Oh, in-laws, you've had to tell my daughter so many times
. Let's not be so formal. She and I are doing well in the countryside. Thank you for your concern."
"Hehe, look, look, you're being too polite again. It's only right. We're family, why say such things
? No, no, no," her in-laws said with a bright laugh. The laughter of the two elderly people filled the phone
. Li Xia watched her father-in-law and her own father chatting, feeling the warm atmosphere of family affection. Her big eyes blinked, sensing
the deep affection, and a sweet smile remained on her face.
After hanging up the phone, the father-in-law and daughter-in-law sat on the kang (a heated brick bed) chatting casually. "Jianjian said he'd be
here by noon today. Dad'll make you fish again, okay?" Wei Xi said happily to his daughter-in-law. Li Xia then
grumbled, "Fish soup again? My breasts are so swollen!"
"You know, that's how you should be during breastfeeding. Eat more things that promote lactation, and your milk will be of good quality."
"The child will be healthier eating this," Wei Xi said, pointing to the remaining liquid in the empty cup
. Remnants of breast milk were still visible clinging to the cup.
"You're always trying to nourish him like this. Fine, you eat it after your grandson finishes, humph. Consider this
your daughter's way of showing you respect," Li Xia retorted, rolling her eyes at her father-in-law. Then she looked down at her unusually full
breasts, adjusting them helplessly.
Hearing her daughter-in-law's coquettish words and seeing her in that "king holding a pagoda" pose, Wei Xi
chuckled sheepishly, "Hehe, I understand, I understand."
At noon, Wei Zongjian arrived in the countryside. He hadn't been seen for several days and looked thinner and darker.
Wei Xi and Li Xia were overjoyed to see him return; he had been gone for over ten days, and now he was finally back.
"You don't have to go out again this time, right?" Li Xia asked her husband. "Oh, no, I'm
only staying home for half a day today. I have to leave again tomorrow. But lately, all my trips have been short, to several places,
and they're all just a few days," Wei Zongjian said with a bitter face.
"Well, you're back now, that's good," Wei Xi comforted him, knowing exactly how
his daughter-in-law felt.
Seeing Wei Zongjian eating so heartily, the father-in-law and daughter-in-law were genuinely happy. "Don't just watch me eat, you all
eat too, everyone eat!" Wei Zongjian pointed to his father and then to his wife.
"Okay, don't rush to eat, just eat well," Wei Xi said to his son, while he himself only drank beer and didn't
eat any food. Li Xia, on the other hand, patted her son's bottom, coaxing the baby to sleep. Hearing his father's words, Wei
Zongjian grinned foolishly, feeling the warmth of his family.
Wei Zongjian's company has business dealings in many parts of the country, which means he frequently
travels around the country. As a technical project manager, he had an
excuse to take care of his wife and child around the time his child was born, but now that the child is nine months old, he can't just stay home and use the child as an excuse not to travel
. For someone who travels so much, even a short reunion is heartwarming; life is simple and
full of affection.
The family chatted and laughed, enjoying the warmth of family time, and the sweltering heat seemed to dissipate.
"Let's take a shower later, you're all sweaty," Li Xia said with a charming smile. Seeing her husband
back by her side, she really needed to release the pent-up emotions of the past few days.
Seeing his wife's expression, Zongjian nodded knowingly and said, "Okay, in a bit, after the baby falls asleep,
let's shower together."
"Okay," Li Xia nestled in her husband's arms and whispered.
"Let's go to the side room after we shower," Zong Jian suggested. His meaning was crystal clear; after all,
the soundproofing in the countryside couldn't compare to that in the city, so he offered a solution that satisfied both.
"Aren't you worried about it being hot there? Well, we can just be quiet," Li Xia whispered,
a blush creeping onto her face.
Wei Xi went into his room, closed the door, and rested. A little while later, Li Xia went to the bathroom. After
a moment's hesitation, Zong Jian also left the living room, thinking about something as he walked. He then went to the east wing. The afternoon
heat made the room unbearably hot. As soon as he entered, his short-sleeved shirt was instantly soaked
through from the back. Feeling the sweltering heat, he thought, "It's really too stuffy. I'll just let Xia Xia be. Let's do it quietly
, hmm." Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly saw a Buddha statue in the corner. Curious, he went over, picked it up, and
examined it. "Isn't this the Tantric Buddhist Buddha of Bliss?" Zong Jian muttered to himself.
"Who put this here?" Zong Jian wondered. He fiddled with the Buddha of Bliss for a bit.
Unable to stay in the stuffy room any longer, he quickly put it back in the corner, exhaling hot air, and left the east wing before going
into the bathroom.
The couple shared a tender kiss in the bathroom before sneaking back to their
room like thieves. After closing the door and checking to make sure everything was alright, they drew the windows and curtains
. The bathroom intimacy needed no further foreplay. Li Xia was held in her husband's arms, and with a gentle push,
their young bodies joined together. Li Xia, who had been suppressing her emotions for so long, completely relaxed, letting out a
soft moan before quickly suppressing it. Zong Jian cooperated, bringing his mouth to her
lips and gently thrusting in and out.
Feeling the tender love and deep affection, Li Xia closed her eyes and involuntarily tilted her
head back, gently stroking her husband's hair and offering her trembling breasts. Zong Jian unceremoniously swallowed her milk.
"It's bigger than before I left, and the milk is thicker," Zongjian said softly, licking the milk from the corner of his mouth. "You bad
man, suck some more, it's getting full." Li Xia's pink face was flushed, and even her jade neck seemed to be intoxicated. She
whispered shyly, and her shy and lustful face made Zongjian instinctively last longer. His thick lower body
filled his wife's jade pot completely, while feeling the beauty and tightness of his beloved wife.
The house was filled with heat and the scent of lovemaking. The sweat streaming down their bodies testified
to their presence. The occasional soft moans filled them with a mixture of excitement and nervousness. They completed
their blissful union, cleaned up, and then eagerly opened the window to let in fresh air.
The composed Zongjian comforted his wife, saying, "Let's do it again tonight, after Father is asleep. It's a
bit too stifling here; we can't be too unrestrained. I know that." Indeed, as Zongjian said, neither of them was satisfied, especially
with the novelty of their recent separation. One time wasn't enough.
Time passed quickly, and it was already three o'clock. After a short nap, the child woke up
. Zongjian got up and opened the door. He saw his father standing at the back door of the living room, smoking
, quietly lost in thought.
"Dad, are you tinkering with the backyard chores again? Don't work so hard. Look
how well we're doing now, we should put down our burdens. This time, Li Xia is coming with you to stay in the countryside for a few days. Don't find us bothersome.
If you go back in a couple of days, you can come with us again." Zong Jian lit a cigarette and leaned closer as he spoke.
"Look at what you're saying! When have I ever complained about you? I'm just worried about causing you inconvenience.
You're never home anyway, and I'm just an old man living with you..." The old man was interrupted by his son before he could finish
.
"Dad, that's not right. I'm your only son. What's inconvenient about it? Even I, with my clumsy
tongue, know that. Why are you bringing this up? Stop talking. I'll have Xiaxia talk to you later, so you won't have a whole bunch of complaints
waiting for me. I really can't do anything with you." Zongjian interrupted his father's old clichés immediately, his
tone leaving his father no room for choice. At this moment, Li Xia came out carrying the child and
echoed her husband's tone.
Seeing his son say this, Wei Xi smiled at his son. He didn't say anything, then glanced at his daughter-in-law
. Her eyes were still bright, but he didn't look at her any longer and immediately turned his head away.
The sunset painted the western sky crimson layer by layer. Walking along
the path behind the village, Wei Xi accompanied his son and daughter-in-law. Neat rows of small trees, supported by wooden frames, lined
the winding, hexagonal path.
Lush flowers and grasses grew on both sides of the path, exuding fragrance and verdant greenery. Young and old alike
strolled along the riverbank, cycling or walking, exchanging greetings.
As they walked, Li Xia was gently pulled by Zong Jian, who then slowed his pace. Zong Jian, holding his son,
gestured to Li Xia, watching his father walk steadily ahead.
Seeing her husband about to say something, she leaned closer to him. "Look at Dad, his steps are still so
steady," Zongjian whispered to his wife.
"Yes, Dad always says he's getting old. Looking at him now, I really don't want to see him walking with faltering steps
," Lixia whispered understandingly to her husband, then pointed to the shadow cast by the setting sun.
Seeing his father's back, Zongjian felt a little heavy-hearted. That back had
been walking alone silently for many years, without a partner or the company of a close friend.
"Yes, that's right. Please take good care of him while I'm away. I'm not good at expressing myself,
and even when I'm home, I'm not as attentive as you. Please take care of him and make him comfortable," Zongjian said in a low voice. Looking
at her husband's somewhat forlorn and helpless eyes, Lixia tightened her grip on his arm and said tenderly, "I
will. I will take good care of Dad. Don't worry, I won't let him go through this alone. I will
make up for the love you have for him by giving him double the amount." After saying this, Lixia gave her husband a light kiss on the cheek
.
The glow of the sunset illuminated her wife's cheek, making it rosy. Looking at his wife, Zongjian
smiled gratefully.
The vibrant sunset, reflecting on the clouds, created a scene of colorful clouds traversing the sun. Lixia's family
strolled leisurely along the riverside path in the sunset.
Red, blue, and white hues gathered and drifted, and as the sun gradually set in the west, the sky gradually darkened.
Back home, Zongjian placed the barbecue he had bought on the table, took out some beer, and the family of four didn't need to cook.
They simply held the skewers, drinking and eating, which had a unique charm.
Lixia, because she was breastfeeding, couldn't drink beer. Before her was crucian carp and tofu soup. Looking at the white
soup, then down at her full breasts, and glancing at her father-in-law across the table, she ultimately reluctantly
endured it.
Wei Xi returned to his room promptly at nine o'clock, leaving the "battlefield" to his son and daughter-in-law.
The young couple, rarely together in their rural hometown, washed up, and after everything was ready, began
their intimate moments.
In the bedroom, only a bedside lamp was on, its cool white light illuminating the scene.
Li Xia's mouth was gagged with stockings. She was stripped naked like a lamb, her
legs raised high and her body erect. Zong Jian, no longer holding back, thrust deeply into his wife.
Li Xia let out a muffled groan and arched her neck.
Seeing this, Zong Jian knew she needed to be thoroughly pounded. He took a breath and began
to thrust and withdraw rapidly. Li Xia's legs swung back and forth on her husband's shoulders, her neck taut,
her hands gripping the sheets tightly. With each thrust, her large, exposed breasts were flung around, dripping with juice.
While pounding her hard, Zong Jian lowered his body, taking one of her plump, white breasts into his mouth, licking it and
then frantically drinking her abundant milk.
The sounds of slapping and slapping, initially confined to a small area within the room, gradually grew louder and more
uncontrollable. Wei Xi, in the east room, faintly heard the sounds of a man and woman making love. He knew
it was his son and daughter-in-law doing so.
A father, a steadfastly upright old man, hearing the sounds of his son and daughter-in-law making love, how could he possibly have any
romantic thoughts? Yet, for a normal man, sex is indispensable and
something that cannot be suppressed. The old man had previously maintained a regular self-control, but with the addition of his son and daughter-in-law
, his life was no longer so carefree—something he couldn't imagine or control.
Especially the past few days in the countryside, the times spent alone with his daughter-in-law, and the events that occurred
had changed the old man's simple life. These changes, like a frog slowly being boiled in water, gradually
opened the old man's innocent heart, and the door to his hidden desires was opened as well.
Wei Xi, as if possessed, secretly opened the door. Holding his breath
, he tiptoed to his son's room. This time, the sounds coming from inside were completely audible
.
"I want it, give it to me!" At this moment, Li Xia, her stockings down, cried out passionately as she
writhed beneath her husband, seemingly oblivious to everything else.
"Here, here..." Zong Jian roared, thrusting forcefully. His penis, moving in and out of his wife's body,
stretched and pulled apart her tender flesh. His erect penis, full and swollen, moved in and out of her vagina.
Soaked in the slippery greenhouse, Zong Jian, panting, inquired about his wife's feelings while vigorously thrusting,
"Are you experiencing pleasure?"
"Bad man, bad man, you bad old man, I want it, you've bullied me, I want you to tear me apart..." Li
Xia's coquettish voice was so alluring; she was practically incoherent as she spoke.
Outside the door, listening to his daughter-in-law's fluctuating voice, Wei Xi was shocked. What were they talking about?
Especially his daughter-in-law constantly using the term "bad old man"—wasn't that what she often used to describe him? Could it be that his daughter-in-law
... her?
Wei Xi couldn't bear to imagine. With his throbbing erection, he turned and quietly returned to the room. This time, he no longer
suppressed it; he couldn't suppress it even if he wanted to.
Grasping his engorged penis, he rapidly masturbated, his mind filled with thoughts of his daughter-in-law
's beautiful body. He no longer restrained himself, nor did he want to. After so many days of "torture," he truly, truly
needed to release.
His hands moved faster and faster, his throat choked with sobs. In waves of pleasure, Wei Xi ejaculated.
His throbbing penis rapidly sprayed out spurts of milky white semen, powerfully striking
the urinal.
He could clearly feel the "crackling" sound coming from it. After his pleasurable ejaculation, lying on the bed,
thinking about his absurd thoughts and actions, he covered his face, his cheeks burning. He felt he had
gone mad, especially with the thought of someone he shouldn't be thinking about.
"Bad old man, give it to me..." Li Xia cried out in a daze, her lower body uncontrollably
urinating. She was now limp, letting her husband thrust rapidly. "Bad old man, give it to me,"
she cried again, finally ejaculating once more. In that
instant, her mind went blank, as if the person on top of her wasn't her husband.
Who was it?
She dared not think. Just then, wave after wave of orgasm washed over her.
Hearing his wife's intimate words, Zongjian clearly felt his penis enveloped in a burning heat. He
let out an "Oh," then grabbed his wife's thighs and thrust hard, murmuring, "Good girl, good
girl, I'm giving it to you, giving it to you, ah," as he thrust rapidly, pressing firmly against his wife's buttocks, his body
trembling with her movements.
The intense lovemaking in the bedroom made the couple extremely excited. Seeing the satisfied smile blooming
on his wife's rosy cheeks, the changes in her body after the stretch, and the tight, pleasurable feeling during the final sprint, Zongjian knew that
his wife had climaxed. This climax lasted quite a long time; it seemed that his wife had truly been satisfied by his service.
Li Xia looked at her husband with intoxicated eyes, letting him clean up after her. She was limp,
without a trace of strength, only panting softly. Her charming face was flushed with intoxication, and she could feel
her eyes welling up with tears, the overflowing passion emanating from the young woman's body.
After the climax, Li Xia nestled in her husband's arms, listening to his heart pounding. She gently stroked his
chest and said, "While you were away, I talked to Dad. He doesn't plan to find a new partner. We
discussed this on the phone."
"Yes, I know that. What are your plans?" her husband asked, stroking her hair
and inhaling its delicate fragrance.
"I've thought about it. What the old man said makes sense. These past few days, I've understood his good intentions
, and what he said makes sense. I respect his choice. If we live together in the future, I will
repay him for his love for us, so he won't feel lonely and isolated, and he can experience the warmth and happiness of home
." Looking into her husband's eyes, Li Xia shyly buried her head in his chest again after speaking
.
"Wife, I support your choice. No matter what happens in the future, I will support your choice without complaint
." Hearing her husband's understanding words, Li Xia snuggled closer to him.
"You naughty boy, you only listen to me. Don't you have any opinions of your own?" Li Xia said, stroking her husband's nipple
.
"I'm not home all the time, so who else should I listen to if not you?" Zong Jian
said gently, cupping his wife's face in his hands.
"Husband, I love you," Li Xia said softly, then shyly nestled into her husband's arms. Feeling his
wife tremble, Zong Jian hugged her even tighter. "Wife, I love you too." Then Zong Jian asked, "
Was it comfortable just now?" Li Xia nestled in her husband's arms, gently nuzzling him, and said, "You naughty boy." As she spoke, she
nuzzled him, and the incoherent words she had uttered before her climax resurfaced in her mind: "You naughty old man, give me
..."
The night was long, and the couple whispered sweet nothings while enjoying the afterglow of their climax. Li Xia didn't
ask her husband to do anything more, knowing how hard his journey had been.
She was already very satisfied and comfortable with the two encounters that day, and felt content.
The next day, Zong Jian ate breakfast and, without his wife driving him, said goodbye to his father and
walked out. He walked briskly along the road, crossed the gray bridge, and left the village, embarking
on his journey once more.
(To be continued)
By the way: 1. One must take one step at a time, just like a child. Eating is innate, then physical movement
, then learning to crawl, then walking, and then running. It's a process, and I've followed it step by step
. Each chapter is different, with no repetition, and the story is completed according to this idea
. 2. Regarding the issue of explicit scenes, they will also be presented step by step. You might
not feel pleasure without them now, but if they come in abundance, will you still be able to continue reading with peace of mind? 3.
With the theme and outline in place, is filling in the details a problem? The story will have its calm moments, minor climaxes, major climaxes, and moments of unbridled
indulgence. Let me explain slowly.
If you can find enjoyment in it while reading, that would be wonderful. Well, enough rambling, please stay tuned,
thank you!
(12) Night Talk 2
After calculating the days spent in the countryside, Wei Xi
tidied up the vacant land again in the afternoon, planted vegetables, and was satisfied.
He told his daughter-in-law, "I'll go back with you tomorrow. I'll come back after I drop the child off at home."
Hearing this, Li Xia said unhappily, "What did you say when your son left? Why are you
changing your mind now?"
Seeing his daughter-in-law's unhappy expression, Wei Xi thought she was teasing him. He then
said in a condescending tone, "What kind of old man am I, always causing trouble for you! You don't care, but I feel
uneasy."
"Dad, you said you were used to it. Why are you saying this now?" Li Xia said through gritted teeth. Seeing that his
daughter-in-law didn't seem to be joking this time, he scratched his head, speechless.
"He promised Zongjian he would take care of you. When Zongjian left, he said he would let you come to the city with us.
Why didn't you object?" Li Xia turned his head away from the old man in front of him. Wei Xi leaned forward hesitantly and
took his daughter-in-law's arm, saying, "No, I..." Wei Xi didn't know how to persuade his daughter-in-law. A
little embarrassed, she stood there, unsure what to do.
"I won't try to persuade you anymore, I'll just leave by myself," Li Xia said, her voice choked with emotion. She shook off her father-in-law
's hand and went into the house. Wei Xi saw that his daughter-in-law was truly angry this time, sighed, and felt a mix of emotions
. He thought for a while, stamped his foot, and finally followed her in.
Li Xia was packing her clothes in the room. Seeing this, Wei Xi rushed over and stopped his daughter-in-law, saying, "Xia Xia
, listen to me, listen to me!"
"What's there to say? Leaving today or leaving tomorrow, isn't it the same? Baby, Grandpa doesn't care about us anymore
, come home with Mommy." As she spoke, Li Xia burst into tears.
Seeing the tears on his daughter-in-law's delicate face, Wei Xi couldn't bear it. He had intended to make
one last attempt at persuasion, but his insufficient preparation and the repetition of old arguments overwhelmed him, and he was immediately
overwhelmed by his daughter-in-law's words and tears.
He gritted his teeth, closed his eyes, and thought for a moment. Taking a deep breath, Wei Xi finally sighed, "I'm defeated by you
. I promise you, I'll go with you and help you take care of your grandson."
Hearing her father-in-law say this, Li Xia turned to look at the old man in disbelief.
Seeing her daughter-in-law's expression, Wei Xi closed his eyes again, his trembling hands grasping her arms,
and hugged her tightly. Like a parent comforting a child, he gently patted her back and soothed his
daughter-in-law.
Smoke rose from the chimneys, birds chirped and perched on the trees, flitting about
. Time ticked by. As the sunset faded and night fell, under the streetlights, groups of three or five
gathered, their numbers increasing. Some villagers huddled together chatting, others strolled around the back of the village, and still others
danced to music in the village committee courtyard. These were the villagers' ways of passing the time in the sweltering summer, each with its own charm
. Sweating it out provided both exercise and a way to kill time—a win-win situation.
Wei Xi and his daughter-in-law, Li Xia, were busy bathing their child. After a few days of
getting used to rural life, the child was gradually adjusting. He was placed in the tub, splashing and playing with his hands as he was bathed.
Watching the child play happily, Wei Xi dried him with a towel while saying to his daughter-in-law,
"I know that having a child has increased your burden. Jianjian is often out, and I
can't help you much. Once we're done, if you're planning to go for a walk, go ahead. The child
has played enough; I'll put him to sleep."
"Dad, you're so naive. You always think about your children and consider their needs, but you don't enjoy life like that yourself
. You love playing chess so much, but you haven't gone out to play even once in the past few days. How can I go out alone?" Li
Xiamei glanced at her father-in-law, wrapped the child in a towel, and then picked her up.
"Hey, those are just trinkets, not worth the effort. It all depends on the situation! I have a grandson at home,
and I'm always wandering around outside all the time. What kind of nonsense is that! People will say I'm irresponsible," Wei Xi said, gently
patting his grandson's back. "Oh? Aren't you afraid people will gossip about you? Hehe," Li Xia 　　said with
a grin, looking at her father-in-law's serious expression. 　　"There's nothing I can do about being afraid of gossip. Life goes on. I was saying, can we please stop talking about me all the time?" Wei Xi 　　suddenly realized something was off and changed the subject. 　　"You, what can we say about you? Humph, people don't even know what to say about you," Li Xia pouted, 　　looking at her father-in-law's self-restrained behavior, which disregarded his own interests. She was going to advise him, but then she heard 　　her father-in-law make a funny sound in a high-pitched voice. 　　"I know what you're thinking. You'll just say, 'Oh, you only care about your children and grandchildren. You never know how 　　to take care of yourself. First you're afraid people will say you don't care about your grandson, then you're afraid people will gossip about you and your daughter-in-law 　　,'" Wei Xi mimicked his daughter-in-law's voice, 　　making Li Xia laugh so hard she almost fell over. "Dad, you're killing me, haha!" Seeing his daughter-in-law holding 　　her grandson and patting her chest, her daughter-in-law's tenderness made the old man laugh happily too. 　　After laughing, Wei Xi continued, "This family issue is something I have to take responsibility for, 　　but I keep hesitating and worrying. I don't know why. Please 　　don't laugh at this old man." "No, no, hehe, Dad, you're so funny," 　　Li Xia said slowly, suppressing her laughter, 　　especially seeing her father-in-law's childlike "face-changing" words . 　　Seeing her daughter-in-law's barely suppressed laughter, Wei Xi smiled. "Just laugh if you want to! Why pretend? 　　This girl..." 　　Laughter is a natural seasoning; it washes away all worries and anxieties 　　. There's nothing laughter can't resolve; a laugh can dissolve grudges, a laugh can solve a thousand sorrows, 　　a hearty laugh brings joy—these are all the benefits of laughter. Especially evident in the daily interactions between the father-in-law, daughter-in-law, and their baby.

This also helps them in their daily lives and helps regulate their feelings for each other.
The sounds of the people enjoying the cool air outside were faint. Little Chengcheng, after his bath, was sleepy. He murmured for a while, then
closed his eyes on his mother's breast. Looking at their grandson's adorable face and sleepy eyes, Li Xia and Wei
Xi smiled at each other. After coaxing the child to sleep and settling him in, they checked him again and found nothing
unusual. Li Xia then pulled Wei Xi out of their bedroom.
"We made a promise, so don't go back on your word," Li Xia said to her father-in-law.
"You promised me, and now you're going back on your word?" Wei Xi said to his daughter-in-law, seemingly very certain.
"Who knows when you'll change your mind again? That's your specialty. Sometimes I really don't trust what you say,
" Li Xia said teasingly. Looking at his daughter-in-law's coquettish expression, Wei Xi
felt a little helpless about his own fickle nature.
However, being with young people does have many advantages. At the very least, it makes him feel younger
, both in his mood and mindset, and having a grandson around adds to the enjoyment. These issues occasionally
tug at his heartstrings, leaving him caught in a dilemma.
"I can't really explain why I've been so fickle. I know it's not good, it makes people feel distant. This
is my fault, I apologize. I didn't consider your feelings, it was all from my own selfish perspective
. I apologize again. So, I'll just follow your lead, like you said, be carefree, happy,
tolerant, and understanding. I don't know if I'm right, but let's just do it this way, let everything be natural, let everything take its
course. Do you think that's okay?" Wei Xi finished speaking and looked at his daughter-in-law. He didn't know if his
explanation would be acceptable to her.
"What Zongjian and I did is actually the same as what you did, all for this family. This
family has you, me, Zongjian, and the children." Li Xia added after saying this, "Love is selfless,
love is eternal, love contains kinship and romantic love. We love you because we are filial to our elders, because blood is thicker than
water. You love us, all your sacrifices are boundless love, love and filial piety go hand in hand." Listening to his daughter-in-law, Wei Xi was deeply moved. 　　He realized
he had indeed sacrificed so much for himself over the years, but what did sacrificing himself matter when it came to his children? Was it even considered a sacrifice? He was deeply grateful for his daughter-in-law's understanding 　　and was touched by her cheerfulness and virtuousness. She wanted her later years to be filled with happiness and joy, 　　shedding the shyness of a daughter. Although she was his daughter-in-law, 　　she did what a daughter should do. With such a daughter-in-law, what more could he ask for? Would he still feel lonely? 　　Everyone says understanding is paramount, but true understanding comes from mutual understanding; it's 　　selfless, it's about striving for the other's happiness even at the cost of one's own. Wei Xi himself couldn't say 　　how much he had sacrificed for this family, but he saw in his daughter-in-law's eyes the responsibility she bore for her son, 　　and the magnanimous tolerance she showed. This was a young woman, a 　　woman who was just as capable as any man. Thinking about this, Wei Xi felt a slight sense of shame. 　　Wei Xi reached out his hand, hesitated slightly, but finally took his daughter-in-law's hand and said with emotion, 　　"Thank you. You've taught your father another lesson. Actually, it all comes down to worries. There are too many worries, 　　and some traditional ideas are mixed in. Because of these, I can't let go. If you can be so generous and not hold grudges, 　　your father will change little by little. Ah, it's good to be young. Your father's generation was full of worries." 　　Hearing her father-in-law say this piqued Li Xia's interest. She really wanted to hear her father-in-law talk about 　　what had happened around him. 　　Li Xia then egged on her father-in-law, "Dad, did you have a girl you liked when you were young?" Seeing his daughter-in-law's playful 　　and mischievous expression, 　　Wei Xi looked at her kindly and said, "No, do you believe me? Hehe, don't ask such a pointed question. 　　It's hard for Dad to answer. Ask something else." Seeing her father-in-law's ambiguous smile, she knew there was something more to it 　　, but he was also hesitant and evasive, 　　so she didn't press the matter further. After thinking for a moment, Li Xia asked, "After receiving the subsidy, why 　　didn't you go to your superiors to arrange a job?" Li Xia's question was quite direct and relevant to the current situation. 　　In fact, this question covers a wide range of issues and reflects modern people's concerns about their own survival and safety, as 　　the mindset of this era is different from that period. 　　"Well, this is a question I can talk about. Nowadays, life is very materialistic. 　　In the struggle for survival, people have lost their warmth towards each other, and often it's just about mutual exploitation. 　　In my generation, people were naive; given the circumstances, we didn't think that much about the bigger picture. After I came back, 　　I farmed at home, and later learned some trades, becoming a craftsman. Gradually, my family's life improved 　　. That's it; there weren't any other factors involved. Besides, I don't 　　regret not being assigned a job. Those of us who survived in the unit were already very content. Thinking about those comrades who died..." " Being alive is the greatest 　　comfort, I'm content," Wei Xi said calmly. 　　So many years have passed, and he's become somewhat more detached from the past. It's not that there were no feelings involved; 　　rather, the feelings were very deep, like his relationship with his comrade Chen Zhanying. Their bond was one of life-or-death commitment; words weren't needed 　　, often just a single sentence was enough. He would never hesitate to help if it was his duty. 　　Li Xia rested her chin on her hands, looking at her father-in-law with the same adoration one would give an idol. 　　Seeing his daughter-in-law's endearing charm, Wei Xi chuckled and said, "Don't look at me like that, it's making 　　me embarrassed." 　　"Oh? Then have a cigarette to ease the tension," Li Xia said playfully, winking. 　　"Hmm? You always tell Jianjian and me to smoke less, so why are you giving in to me today?" 　　Wei Xi said with a smile, her hand naturally reaching into her pocket to take out a cigarette and light it. 　　Seeing her father-in-law skillfully light his cigarette, even seeming to blow a smoke ring, 　　Li Xia blurted out, "Dad, you look so cool smoking!" Wei Xi was confused. "Smoking, what's so cool about it? I..."

"I can't keep up with your jumping thoughts,"
Li Xia explained, seeing her father-in-law's puzzled look. "Heh, when you're pretty, everything looks good." Hearing
his daughter-in-law say this, Wei Xi didn't ask any further questions. Perhaps this was the charm of fatherly love? Perhaps it was
the solemnity of middle age that he exuded. He didn't think too much about it and just casually smoked his cigarette
.
After taking a few puffs, perhaps feeling more relaxed and at ease, Wei Xi continued, "Back in my
day, marriages and dating were all arranged by others. Free love existed, but it was rare. At that time, you didn't dare to take
a girl's hand. If you grabbed a girl's hand right away, you'd be considered a pervert." Wei Xi was
even talking about some things from his own marriage.
Li Xia, hugging her knees, interjected, "That shouldn't be the case. A young, handsome guy holding a girl's hand should make her happy
; who would call you a pervert?"
Hearing her daughter-in-law's words, Wei Xi scratched his head, glanced at her, and then explained, "What handsome
guy? That's how it was back then. Touching someone so rashly right away was considered being a pervert."
"So when you grabbed my hand just now, wasn't that being a pervert? Hehe," Li Xia teased her father-in-law, making Wei
Xi's old face light up. Wei Xi looked at his daughter-in-law's playful appearance and mumbled, "I...we're different,
you little girl, you're teasing your father again."
Li Xia smiled and didn't say anything more, just looked at her father-in-law and listened to him continue, "I
dated her for half a year and then we got married. Like most people, we started living our lives, and then we had Jianjian. The whole family was very happy
. People back then had a kind of tenacity, not afraid of hardship or fatigue. Your mother-in-law
worked during her postpartum period for the sake of the family, which caused her to develop postpartum illness. Later, the heavy burden of life caused her to contract uterine disease, and finally..."
As he spoke, Wei Xi's voice grew softer and softer, and finally he fell silent.
Everyone knows that her father-in-law has been widowed for many years. Although the memory has faded with time, it still touches on his
sadness. Li Xia regretted asking the question unintentionally the first time, but her curiosity still made her
want to know more about her father-in-law's past. Perhaps this is just a woman's innate gossip-loving nature.
Although her father-in-law had spoken aloud, judging from his expression, it must have touched a raw nerve. Seeing this, Li Xia quickly smoothed things over,
saying, "Dad, this time when we go back to the city, you should stay here for a while. I'll prepare things for you tomorrow.
We'll bring you whatever you need, and if you're missing anything, we can buy it.
" Hearing his daughter-in-law's interruption, Wei Xi paused for a moment, then composed himself and returned to normal. "Well,
bring some clothes, and also, my chess set, and my radio. What else? It seems like
there's nothing else to bring," Wei Xi said after thinking for a moment. He lived alone and indeed didn't have much to bring.
"
One or two pieces of clothing and shoes are enough. I'll buy you more later. You don't need to bring the chess set; you can
play online. There are plenty in the neighborhood. Hmm, the radio? Okay, bring that. Do you want to bring anything
else? Do you want to bring your books?" Li Xia asked.
"Let's bring the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and more clothes. No need to spend money buying more; this is enough
for me," Wei Xi said after thinking for a moment.
"Hmm~ Wow, it's already past ten o'clock! That's disrupted your schedule!" Li Xia exclaimed slightly,
pointing to the cartoon clock on the table and saying to her father-in-law,
"You've been keeping the old man company, haven't you? He's already smoked several cigarettes. Well, that's good, it's given me a good chatter session.
" Wei Xi said this in a good mood.
"Hmph, you know how good I am now, go take a shower and go to bed," Li Xia said, getting up and taking her father-in-law's hand. This
kind of conversation between the old man and the young woman, especially with so much talk, was truly unprecedented for
Li Xia. It was also the first time she had opened her father-in-law's heart and listened to him tell her so much. As a father-in-law, Wei Xi had
also, for the first time, confided so much of what was hidden in his heart, recounting some of his past experiences. Although
it wasn't comprehensive, the feeling after the conversation was still very good.
One listened, the other spoke, like two good friends, casual and natural.
The people outside had dispersed, and the temperature had cooled down. Moonlight poured down, and the small village, like a child,
drifted into a dream, tranquil, peaceful, and serene, just like the night itself, soft, quiet, and ethereal.
Hot water from the solar water heater sprayed down through the pipes, as if understanding human nature, first washing away Wei Xi's
worries and loneliness, then, with his wiping, shaking off all his troubles until he walked into
his bedroom feeling refreshed.
Then Li Xia went into the bathroom, the flowing water caressing her skin, allowing her to slowly experience the comfort and relaxation it brought. It seemed to increase her
confidence, making her efforts worthwhile—this was the result she wanted, and it was what her husband supported.
Thinking of this, Li Xia turned lightly, enjoying the comfort and relaxation of the bath even more.
The night truly deepened, and Li Xia drifted off to sleep with a smile. The child woke her several times that night,
but this didn't disturb her rest. With a good mood, things were easier to do.
Around six in the morning, the father-in-law and daughter-in-law got up one after the other. Li Xia saw
her father-in-law carrying a chamber pot out. Curious, she peeked at the blue chamber pot in his hand; it was about half full of urine. As it passed by
, she noticed the clear urine had no unpleasant odor.
After this brief observation, although it was just a little while, she knew her father-in-law was in good health
and didn't exhibit the excessive urination typical of the elderly—a good sign.
Many young people urinate about this much at night, or even more, and the color isn't good either.
After a few random thoughts, she went to the water vat, filled a basin with clean water, and
washed away her sleepiness with the cool water. Touching her youthful skin, she looked in the mirror; her eye bags were barely visible. She
gently stroked her face, looking at herself from left to right, quite satisfied.
My father-in-law swept the yard a bit, stretched his arms and legs, and then busied himself in the kitchen preparing
breakfast. He lived a very regular life, always doing this: he would get up early, wash up
, drink a glass of water, stretch his body, and then cook. Ever since his daughter-in-law started accompanying him...
Back in the countryside, he would clean the yard, wash up, and then immediately cook. Having a grandson meant he had to be
thoughtful; after all, adults need to eat, and so does the child.
He simply boiled a few eggs, cooked millet porridge, and made steamed egg custard for his grandson to supplement his nutrition
.
After finishing all this, he went to the yard and practiced a set of boxing. His movements were slow and deliberate, lacking the speed of younger people
, but his actions were precise and efficient. The entire set lasted fifteen minutes. Afterward, he went to the west corner of the wall,
where a large vat, once used for storing grain but now filled with rainwater, stood. He turned his back
to the vat, lifted his hips, and used his waist to lift it a few times.
Li Xia, holding her child at the living room doorway, witnessed the entire scene. She saw
her father-in-law using his waist to lift the nearly two-meter-diameter vat, causing it to sway. She had only ever seen her father-in-law practice boxing before, never
witnessing him do this.
"Dad, does your back hurt? You bumped that big water vat so hard it's shaking," Li Xia asked with some concern.
"I've been doing this every day for so many years. You might find it strange, but it's nothing new. It's fine. It
helps to stretch my back," Wei Xi said nonchalantly.
"You scared me! Are you really okay?" Li Xia continued to ask, still worried.
"I'm really fine. Dad, I haven't given up all these years. I can even do somersaults without a problem. Okay, let's not talk about it anymore. A
hero doesn't dwell on past glories," Wei Xi said with a smile.
After washing her hands, Wei Xi brought the food to the table. "It's a little hot, but it'll be fine in a bit. Let the baby try some
steamed egg custard. I've already added sesame oil, okay?" Wei Xi pinched her grandson's cheek, and the little guy started wailing
.
"You naughty old man, you're teasing your grandson and making him cry. Mommy's scolding him. Go away, go away, don't tease the baby," Li
Xia said, rocking the child.
After a while, the child stopped crying and enjoyed the delicious steamed egg custard in his mother's arms. However, while
the steamed egg custard was delicious, eating one thing meant you couldn't eat another. The child was happy, but Li Xia wasn't.
Her breasts were sore from engorgement, so she angrily took out a breast pump and expressed the milk. Then she muttered and
grumbled, "It's all for a purpose, it's all for a purpose, that naughty old man," and as she spoke, her face
turned red.
The breast pump's nozzle was wide open, and the accompanying petal-shaped pad clung tightly to her daughter-in-law's full
breasts. Her delicate white hands gently pressed the handle, and the grape-sized
nipples, along with their areolas, were sucked into the nozzle, making the nipples appear quite large.
Many thin streams of thick fluid spurted from the nipples' prominent veins, flowing into the cup. Watching
this, Wei Xi couldn't help but swallow, her hands moving slowly towards her groin as she pressed them against her thighs
.
The calcium milk and calcium tablets prepared for the elderly were placed on the table. Li Xia didn't say much;
she had tacitly accepted this situation these past few days and didn't offer further explanation. She drained the milk, covered herself with her clothes, and gently massaged her breasts before
placing the cups of calcium milk and breast milk together.
She glanced at her father-in-law sitting on the stool, and when she saw him watching her with disapproving eyes, she lowered her head
and turned to go inside.
Seeing his daughter-in-law's retreating figure, Wei Xi grinned at the two cups of milk on the table. He smacked his lips
, picked up the cup, and unceremoniously drank the milk with his calcium tablets. Then, he slowly savored the
warm milk from his daughter-in-law. He felt a strange unease; after these few days, he had clearly grown to like its
taste.
Li Xia didn't need to touch her own clothes or luggage; the only thing she needed to pack was her father-in-law's. With the baby in the old
man's hands, she took out his summer clothes and two outer garments, putting them and his shoes
into her travel bag. Then she went into the east wing. Under the bed was a box—the place where her father-in-law had arranged his books.
Li Xia opened the box; inside were books, old newspapers, and an old photo album.
Opening the album, she found photos of family members: Zong Jian as a child, her father-in-law in his youth,
and a photo of a young woman—Li Xia knew it was her mother-in-law.
Aside from her father-in-law's photo from his military service, the rest were small black-and-white photos, each containing
priceless affection and sentiment. Li Xia chose two photos of her father-in-law in his uniform during his service. She didn't take her mother-in-law's photo
, perhaps to avoid upsetting her father-in-law.
She then casually took out the Romance of the Three Kingdoms book that was on the shelf. After tidying everything up, she saw
the Buddha statue she had casually placed in the corner when she arrived, especially its vivid and lifelike depiction of intertwined figures. Li Xia
felt a sudden jolt, and a blush appeared on her face. She glanced back at the window, then
quickly picked up the Buddha statue.
(To be continued)
A sneak peek at the next chapter: Chapter Thirteen: Settling In. It's time to return to the city. What will Wei Xi
's situation be like after returning? He has become much more open-minded, but… stay tuned.
Comrades, please don't rush me. Let me plan and think. These seemingly simple few thousand words are actually
quite difficult for me to write, as I'm not a fast writer. I have to work, take care of my family, and also consider my wife and children's feelings
. It's not easy for me. Of course, it's even harder for you. Please understand. Well, relax
and enjoy the process. Just be happy!
(13) Settling In After
locking the gate of the old house, the family of three walked towards the car. Li Xia opened the car door to let the air out,
and then started the car. Today was a good day for the return trip. The temperature hadn't risen yet, and the air temperature was just right. This
time, the child wasn't strapped into the baby seat, but was held in Wei Xi's arms. Although Wei Xi
hadn't spent much time with his grandson, the little guy rarely fussed with his grandfather, which was the main reason for Li Xia's peace of mind. She
drove with peace of mind, chatting with her father-in-law first, and slowly left the old house in the countryside.
When we arrived at the village entrance, the village children, accompanied by adults, were playing in the mud and frolicking
. Ducks and geese were slowly carrying grass roots and other things in the muddy ground outside the yard, looking like they were about to go down to the river to play.
The people were still the same people, the scenery was still the same scenery, and the gray-white bridge still served as
the connection between the village and the outside world.
The car gradually picked up speed, passing the highway outside the village and heading towards the main road. It sped along, and
after more than twenty minutes, they entered the city. The bustling crowds, the endless
stream of vehicles, the dazzling array of shops—all sorts of life unfolded in the city. Arriving in this familiar city, everything exuded
a modern atmosphere; the fast pace and diverse information content seemed to change every day.
Wei Xi felt this strongly, but Li Xia, the young daughter-in-law, wasn't as affected
. She had spent a few days in the countryside, experiencing tranquility, leisure, and serenity, without so much conflict.
Returning to the city seemed to require wearing a mask, a helpless
reality of modern life that one had to adapt to and accept.
There is no true right or wrong in the world, only different perspectives and viewpoints.
Wei Xi has come to his daughter-in-law's home in the city this time, and it seems he'll be settling in for a while. His
rural life will come to an end, and he can only visit the vegetables in his backyard occasionally. These excuses can no longer
be used as shields.
Nothing can withstand his daughter-in-law's scrutiny, especially when it comes to his grandson's feelings—that
's his weakness, leaving him speechless.
The thought of being able to happily spend time with his grandson, of this bond and bridge, makes everything he encounters
seem insignificant. His happiness leads to his family's happiness. Having understood this, Wei Xi
no longer feels alienated or unable to integrate when he looks out the window.
Humans, as the manipulators of all things, possess the most complex and difficult-to-understand psychology. Fickleness and
inconsistency are choices made repeatedly, which can be understood as adaptability or
fickleness.
Upon arriving at the entrance of the residential area, Li Xia greeted the security guard and drove in, parking the car directly downstairs.
After getting out of the car, Wei Xi looked around at the familiar place, smacked his lips in mental assessment for a while, and watched as his
daughter-in-law opened the car door, took out her luggage bag, and then coaxed her grandson to go upstairs with her.
The house had been empty for the past few days, and the air wasn't very good; it felt a bit stuffy. "Let's air it out;
there's a musty smell in the house," Li Xia said, walking to the living room balcony, opening the window, and then going to the bedroom
to open the windows a little wider. The air circulation improved, and although the air quality wasn't great, it was still better than the musty smell.
"The air in the city is so different from the countryside. I didn't notice it much before, but now that I'm back from the countryside
, the air in the city feels really bad. It seems I need to buy an air purifier," Li Xia said.
"The environment is what it is, and that's how it is. Car exhaust and industrial pollution
are all causes of bad air. The countryside is far away from these things, but even in the last two years, the countryside has become
a bit polluted. Society has to progress, after all! It's not good to stay stagnant without implementing and developing modern technology,
" Wei Xi said
. The two women, father-in-law and daughter-in-law, discussed it and decided to include an air purifier in their plans. They were both doing it for
the child, so their starting point was the same. When to buy it? They hadn't discussed that yet. Li Xia had
two days of vacation left, so she could go during those two days.
She cleaned her father-in-law's bedroom, put the radio and Romance of the Three Kingdoms books on the bookshelf,
and then took the quilts to the balcony to air them out and disinfect them.
After everything was done, Li Xia took the baby from her father-in-law, checked the baby's bottom, and finding nothing
unusually damp, went to her bedroom. The bedroom was the same as before. Li Xia went to the crib,
changed the baby's blankets, and then put on a clean, new set. After doing this,
she checked the time and decided it was time for the baby to rest.
The baby had been playing for three or four hours since waking up that morning, and had also been jostled around all the way. Adults might not feel
anything, but it's different for babies, especially infants less than a week old; their sleep needs to be guaranteed
.
Li Xia lifted her bra, revealing her breasts. The instant movement of her breasts was so beautiful
and moving. The warm, fresh substance, once released, filled the baby's nose with its scent, and the little guy
eagerly began to wriggle. As her mother cradled him, without any prompting or help, the baby 　　's
rosy little mouth came close. Milk had already been secreted from the nipple , and with each suck and exhale, the thick milk was swallowed down, 　　gulping it down in large mouthfuls. The child not only filled his stomach but also relieved his mother's engorgement. 　　After nursing, Li Xia straightened the baby's body and gently patted his back. Soothed by his mother 　　, the little one quickly drifted off to sleep. 　　Meanwhile, Wei Xi had already taken off his undershirt and was walking towards his daughter-in-law's room in only a vest 　　, chuckling softly as he entered. Seeing his grandson with his eyes closed, the old man's 　　smile never faded. When Li Xia placed the child on the bed, the little guy made a token murmur. 　　Wei Xi lowered his head and kissed his grandson's cheek. Disturbed in his sleep, the little guy shook his head in protest, 　　whimpered twice, and then remained still. 　　"This little guy is so cute, look at him, hehe," Wei Xi whispered to his 　　daughter-in-law 　　. "Now you know how fun it is, right? Zongjian and I just wanted to see you like this, we wanted you to be 　　happy and laughing every day. They say a smile makes you ten years younger, right? With your little grandson by your side, don't you feel 　　younger? Don't you feel less lonely?" 　　Li Xia said gently. After chatting quietly in the bedroom for a while, seeing that the baby was indeed sleeping soundly, Li Xia got up 　　and went to the living room. Wei Xi fastened the stroller's safety belt and then followed her into the living room. "Dad, can you make me some hawthorn jelly for lunch? I really want some," Li Xia 　　said to 　　her father-in-law as she sat on the sofa. 　　During the few days she stayed in her hometown, the temperature wasn't as high as in the city, and her father-in-law had made her mung bean and lotus seed soup to cool her down.

Summer was here, but back in her city home, Li Xia remembered the hawthorn jelly she'd eaten before. Its sweet and sour taste
was not only satisfying but also stimulated her appetite. So she told her father-in-law her idea, and this time the old man readily agreed.
Hawthorn berries were readily available, and nothing else was needed.
Hearing his daughter-in-law so proactively request something to eat, Wei Xi was also very happy. It was a sense of harmony; the
taste of home was in it. Before, he was always afraid of disturbing his children's lives, and he also worried that his children might dislike
his cooking. He longed for love and care in his loneliness and uncertainty, but these concerns always made him
uneasy. He didn't know how to explain this contradiction.
At this moment, Wei Xi was in a good mood. After washing the hawthorn berries in the kitchen, he split them open, removed the pits
, and put them in an iron pot to steam. He stirred the hawthorn berries while adding some white sugar, simmering and stirring
as he did so.
Taking advantage of her son's rest and the good air circulation in the house, Li Xia went to the bathroom, wet a towel, and
cleaned the bedroom. She had originally planned to change her dress, but since she was busy breastfeeding, she decided
not to.
Now, she knelt on the floor, wiping it backwards. There wasn't much dust on the floor; she was just doing a maintenance
clean. After finishing her own bedroom, she turned and went to her father-in-law's bedroom, quickly starting to
clean it.
The hawthorn jelly in the pot was already completely mushy. After tasting it, Wei Xi picked up the bowl and walked out of the kitchen with satisfaction.
He planned to let his daughter-in-law try it. When he got to his bedroom, he saw his daughter-in-law wiping
the wooden floor. Under the skirt that hung slightly above her hips, her round buttocks, encased in flesh-colored stockings, were perfectly displayed
. With each rise and fall, her pert buttocks were outlined in her seamless underwear, like a ripe apple
hanging on a branch, about to fall at any moment. Wei Xi's eyes widened, and a change occurred in his heart.
He intended to turn his head away, but a call from the depths of his soul made it difficult for him to look away.
Sensing footsteps behind her, Li Xia turned around and saw her father-in-law standing outside the door, holding a
small bowl with a green floral pattern, staring intently at her. Li Xia's pretty face flushed red, and she softly asked, "Dad... is the red
fruit yogurt ready?"
Wei Xi, who was getting into the mood, was pulled back to reality by his daughter-in-law's call. He scratched the back of his head and
chuckled, "Yes, it's ready. You, you come and try some."
Feeling her ambiguous posture, especially her upturned buttocks facing her father-in-law, Li Xia's heart skipped a beat
and she quickly forgot about it. She stood up carelessly, her stockings at the knees getting a little dusty from kneeling on the ground
.
Seeing the tempting dish in her father-in-law's hands, she disregarded everything else and immediately came over, excitedly
saying, "Let me try it and see if it's good! Wow, it looks so delicious!" Seeing the mouthwatering contents in the bowl, she
snatched the bowl away as she spoke. Seeing his daughter-in-law's impatient manner, Old Man Wei reached out and gently touched her
slightly sweaty nose, saying, "Hehe, so eager, be careful it's hot."
Amused by her father-in-law's kind yet playful remark, Li Xia snorted and ignored him, picking up
the spoon from the bowl, scooping up a spoonful of bright red broth, and gently blowing on it twice, looking quite pleased with herself.
She said to her father-in-law, "Hmm, if it were chilled, it would be even better."
"You really don't care about anything when you see food. Look at your knees, they're all dirty,"
Wei Xi said, pointing to them. He then bent down and patted his daughter-in-law's knees. The dust and
sweat on her stockings were sticky together, and the patting didn't remove the dirt.
"I'll wash the stockings after I clean the floor; they're a bit sticky from the sweat," she said, not avoiding her father-in-law's
hand. She let him pat her knees.
The stockings gleamed lusciously on her thighs, especially when Wei Xi's hand touched
her knees. The stockings, tightly wrapped around her thighs, were incredibly elastic and silky. As he patted,
he could feel the elasticity of her shapely legs, making him want to touch them a few more times.
After busily cleaning the floor, Li Xia was sweating profusely. Her father-in-law was busy preparing lunch in the kitchen
. Li Xia went into the bathroom, took a quick shower, and came out wrapped in a towel.
"Oh dear, you didn't even dry your hair properly. It's not good to have it wet. Go and dry it quickly," Wei Xi
said as she walked out of the kitchen and saw her daughter-in-law's wet appearance.
"It's alright, people often do that," Li Xia said nonchalantly.
"Your hair is freshly washed, so don't let it drip. You must dry it thoroughly. Even in summer, you still need to be careful.
Go and dry it quickly, then we'll eat." Wei Xi went over, grabbed her daughter-in-law's shoulders, and pushed her towards the bathroom. Li Xia
made a face as she walked towards the bathroom .
In the afternoon, the father-in-law and daughter-in-law played with their child in the living room. The child was very happy and active, sometimes
laughing loudly in Li Xia's arms, sometimes being held by Wei Xi and waving his arms. The two adults were entertaining the child,
completely ignoring their sweaty bodies, and seemed quite content.
"Dad, haha, take a break. You've been playing all day, look how sweaty you are. Go take a shower. Here
, give me the baby." Li Xia shook her slightly sore arm. Wei Xi was currently kissing his grandson, and he
was also quite sweaty. Hearing his daughter-in-law's words, he handed the baby over.
In her haste, Li Xia was slow to take the baby, and it was already pushed against her chest. She didn't know if her father-in-law did it on purpose,
but his fingers touched her breast again. Li Xia felt a slight tingling sensation, then nonchalantly took
the baby, pushed the old man away, and said, "Go on." Then she saw her father-in-law walk away with a smile.
"We've played enough, it's time to rest for a bit. Hmm, have some milk." Li Xia, holding her son, lifted her t-shirt,
revealing her swollen breasts dripping milk onto her son's face. Seeing her son peacefully nursing, Li Xia leaned back
on the sofa, her chest heaving from the earlier exertion, panting heavily.
Chengcheng, restless, nursed, his little face flushed. Li Xia, soothing her child, didn't think much of it.
In the bathroom, Lao Xi, washing his hair, recalled the scene of touching his daughter-in-law's breasts, his trembling...
He had touched her breasts again; those two soft, wriggling mounds were so tender. Wei Xi
savored the memory of her daughter-in-law's kindness and took a blissful bath.
That evening, Wei Xi cooked some noodles for Li Xia. After a simple dinner, darkness
fell, and the lights in the house were turned on. As
night fell, Li Xia, tired from playing, put the baby in the stroller, soothed him for a while
, then handed him to her father-in-law before heading straight to the bathroom.
Enjoying the hot water on her young body, she suddenly heard the bathroom light bulb explode with a "bang!
" A woman's scream came from the bathroom. Hearing the faint noise, Wei Xi quickly went to the bathroom
door, knocked, and asked, "What's wrong, daughter?" "
Ah, you scared me! The light bulb exploded! Oh, oh, it's alright now," Li Xia patted her chest and
called out to her father-in-law outside the door.
"You go ahead and shower, I'll check on things in a bit," Wei Xi said to his daughter-in-law in the bathroom. Without waiting to
see if she'd heard him, he went back to the sofa to continue watching his grandson.
The bathroom, now darkened by the broken light bulb, was noticeably darker. Disturbed by the interruption, Li Xia didn't want to shower anymore. She quickly dried
herself, got dressed, and came out. Seeing her daughter-in-law, Wei Xi hurriedly asked, "Are you alright?"
His father-in-law's concerned tone was just like the child's maternal grandfather's. As an elder, Li Xia
saw the anxiety and tenderness in her father-in-law's eyes.
Li Xia thought to herself, "It's so good to have a man in the family. He cares about me, whether it's my husband or my father-in-law
. I can find someone to rely on when I encounter problems."
Before her daughter-in-law could speak, Wei Xi continued, "Do you have any spare light bulbs? If so, I'll
replace this one now."
Hearing her father-in-law say this, Li Xia comforted him, saying, "Let's talk about it during the day tomorrow. It's a bit dark inside, but
you don't need to rush."
"It's not a big deal, it's not that troublesome, it's fine. Hmm? What's wrong with the baby?" Seeing that her grandson
was restless in the stroller and had even spit up milk, Wei Xi wiped the corner of his mouth and said,
"Before eating, I felt his face was a little hot, but I didn't pay attention." Li Xia went over...
"He's such a grown man, how can you be so careless? Let me see." Wei Xi touched the child's face to check;
the child's face was flushed and hot. Wei Xi picked the child up, wondering,
"Did he play until he was all sweaty and then got chilled?"
Seeing her daughter-in-law's helpless expression, Wei Xi didn't have time to say anything. She quickly carried her grandson
to her daughter-in-law's bedroom, took out a small towel and wrapped him in it. "Let's check his temperature first
. If it's not good, we'll go to the hospital." Wei Xi took a thermometer from under the coffee table and placed it under the child's armpit, then patiently
comforted her grandson. Li Xia was very grateful to her father-in-law for his calm demeanor.
"Oh my god, the baby's temperature is 38°C! Quick, let's go to the hospital! Don't delay!
Go put on some clothes, hurry!" Wei Xi said urgently to her daughter-in-law.
A somewhat bewildered Li Xia quickly went back to the bedroom, changed her clothes, and then took the baby from her father-in-law to change as well.
The two women, holding the baby tightly, practically enveloped little Chengcheng, leaving only a small opening for him to breathe, and
rushed out of the car.
Li Xia started the car, and Wei Xi, sitting in the passenger seat, held the baby in one arm and continuously stroked
his back with the other, muttering, "Be good, Chengcheng, be good, it'll be fine soon." Then Li
Xia sped towards the hospital.
After parking the car, they entered the hospital. Little Chengcheng, wrapped up tightly from head to toe, was held in Wei Xi
's arms. Li Xia said gratefully, "Dad, give the child to me. You've had a long day."
"I'm not tired, it's alright, the child is the priority," Wei Xi replied. Before he could finish, his daughter-in-law snatched the child away,
leaving the old man to lead the way and check the signs.
There were doctors on duty at the hospital at night. Wei Xi looked at the sign in the lobby, walked to the elevator, and
seeing the indicator light for the fifth floor, he couldn't help but say, "The second floor is the pediatrics department. Let's go, let's not wait for
the elevator, let's just walk up," he said to his daughter-in-law, before heading towards the stairs.
Li Xia followed behind, carrying the child. As they walked to the second floor, Wei Xi turned back to remind his daughter-in-law, "Watch
your step. Be careful carrying the child, don't panic."
In the midst of the chaos, things went awry, and misfortune struck again. Wei Xi, while constantly comforting his daughter-in-law, turned back to give her
instructions when, suddenly, he missed a step and swayed to the side.
In his haste, he braced himself with his right hand, which slid down the stairs with a cracking sound
, before collapsing against the wall.
Seeing her father-in-law fall, Li Xia cried out anxiously, "Ah, Dad!" "Dad…are you alright?"
she cried, clutching her child and rushing forward to help him.
"I'm fine, oh, I'm fine," her father-in-law said, frowning slightly. Without waiting for his daughter-in-law to say anything more, he ignored
the dust on his body and ran upstairs. Seeing her father-in-law's resolute appearance, Li Xia stammered, unsure
what to do.
At the pediatric ward, after the doctor's examination, the child was found to be unharmed, and the father-in-law and daughter-in-law finally breathed a sigh of relief
. Because the child was too young for injections, they only received some medication.
The doctors at the hospital had handled too many cases like this, so they just gave them a few simple instructions and sent them on their way.
Downstairs, Li Xia looked at her father-in-law and cautiously asked, "Dad, your wrist popped just now,
did you hurt it?" Since the child had only caught a cold and wasn't in any serious condition, she was worried
about her father-in-law.
"It's nothing, it's just a little poke in the wrist," Wei Xi said, glancing at his daughter-in-law's furrowed brow, trying
to sound nonchalant so she wouldn't worry.
"What are you doing making me worry about you? Don't make excuses, we're at the hospital now
, let's get an X-ray, see if it's nothing serious, then I'll be at ease," Li Xia complained while also
comforting him. Feeling their mutual care and consideration, Wei Xi had no choice but to follow his daughter-in-law towards the orthopedics department.
An elderly doctor examined Wei Xi's wrist, gently stroking his joint, and asked, "Does it hurt?"
Wei Xi gritted his teeth and groaned in agreement.
"Well, it's nothing serious. You don't need to take an X-ray. His wrist isn't broken, it's just a soft tissue injury.
Just put it in a splint, it's nothing serious." Seeing the doctor's nonchalant attitude, Li Xia asked worriedly, "What
's a soft tissue injury, doctor? Is the bone okay?"
"A soft tissue injury is just a soft tissue injury. He's lucky he reacted quickly and is in good health. If the bone were broken
, a person couldn't take it. Don't worry, he'll be fine in a few days." Hearing the doctor's
detailed explanation, Li Xia finally felt relieved. She smiled and thanked the doctor,
then accompanied her father-in-law to the lobby to get some painkillers.
On the way home, Wei Xi was feeling quite unwell, and his face was naturally grim. He held his grandson in his left arm,
looking somewhat resentful. Seeing her father-in-law's pale face, Li Xia quickly comforted him, telling him not to worry and to focus on recovering.
Hearing her daughter-in-law's concern, Wei Xi said guiltily, "You know, the child's illness is already chaotic enough,
and I'm making things worse. Isn't that just annoying?"
"Look at you," Wei Xi replied, "it's just a minor misfortune. Don't worry about it. After my vacation ends in a couple of days, I
'll ask my boss for more leave. There's a situation at home, so a few more days of rest won't be a problem. Just focus on recovering; I'll
take care of you at home." Seeing her father-in-law's wrist injury caused by their child's illness, Li Xia felt grateful but
also guilty.
It was already ten o'clock when they got home. She crushed the pills, dissolved them in sugar, and gave them to the child. Seeing
that the child seemed to be doing well, Wei Xi left her son's bedroom and returned to her own.
After putting her child to sleep, Li Xia returned to the living room. She saw her father-in-law struggling to undress in the bedroom
. The splint on his right hand made her feel guilty again. She went into his bedroom and
said gently and tenderly, "Why didn't you call me? You were so stubborn. Let me help you." Under
his watchful gaze, she helped him take off his undershirt.
Wei Xi could tell that his daughter-in-law was upset. On one hand, the child was sick, and on the other hand, his own
injury was causing her distress. He smiled cheerfully and said, "It's okay, I told you, do I look like I'm okay
?"
Looking at her strong appearance and the tender heart hidden beneath, Li Xia said softly, "Dad... do
n't be so stubborn, it's all my fault."
"I wasn't being stubborn at all. Don't blame yourself, it was all for the child! Think about
it, if I had been holding the child and I had slipped, what would have happened to the child? Just thinking about it makes me shudder.
Sigh, thinking about this, I took the fall to protect the child." Wei Xi nudged his daughter-in-law's arm with his . At this time
,
he could still be cheerful and take things in stride. Wei Xi did a good job. At least his mind
wasn't in turmoil, which served as a reassurance. It wouldn't be good if the whole family were in chaos.
"Take your painkillers, you'll definitely feel uncomfortable tonight. I'll get you some water." He walked to the living room and brought back
a glass of water.
"Yes, that's true. The heat isn't showing yet, but it'll start hurting once it subsides. I'm really fine
, don't worry too much, the baby is more important. I'll make do in the living room, just call me if you need anything,
" Wei Xi said to his daughter-in-law after taking the medicine.
Feeling somewhat distraught after what happened that evening, Li Xia had no choice but to follow her father-in-law's instructions. She unfolded the sofa,
spread out the blankets, adjusted her father
-in-law's pillows, and placed the necessary items beside him before turning to leave. Li Xia went into her bedroom, leaving the door ajar. She looked at her sleeping son, who
was lying peacefully in his crib. She sighed inwardly, then, still feeling uneasy, she moved the child from the crib
to her side, gently soothing him. She then changed her clothes, wearing her pajamas, and took a quick shower in the bathroom
before finally dragging her tired body to sleep.
In the middle of the night, the child started murmuring beside her. Feeling something was wrong with the hand resting on the child's
blanket, Li Xia woke up with a start. In the light of the bedside lamp, she rubbed her sleepy eyes. The clock showed three o'clock.
She picked up the child and gently patted his back.
The child's face was still flushed. Feeling lost, she softly called towards the door, "Dad... Dad... Dad
..." Her voice wasn't loud, afraid of disturbing the child. She got up and turned on the light. Standing in the bedroom doorway, she
could vaguely hear the radio. It turned out her father-in-law had the radio on while he slept. "Dad... Dad..."
Li Xia called softly twice more.
"Oh, okay, what is it? Turn on the light first," Wei Xi heard his daughter-in-law's voice. He was still half asleep,
tossing and turning, enduring the pain in his wrist, and with the radio on his head, he hadn't heard her calls.
His daughter-in-law's repeated anxious calls made him realize what was happening. He sat up abruptly and hurriedly
asked...
"Look, the child's face is still a little hot, this..." Li Xia didn't know what to say. Only when her father-in-law
came to her side did she feel a little safer.
Wei Xi looked at his grandson in his daughter-in-law's arms, at the two red marks on the little face. At this moment
, he couldn't care less about anything else. He pressed his old face against the baby's face, feeling the temperature of the little boy's face.
"Hmm, it is still a little hot, but it doesn't feel as bad as at night. Wipe the child's lips and
nose, it's not good for them to be too dry," he said, walking to the coffee table and taking out cotton swabs. Seeing that her father-in-law's right hand was not working properly,
Li Xia held the child and went over to him.
Wei Xi didn't explain. He held the cotton swab packaging in his mouth, tore open a hole with his left hand, and used the moistened
swab to wipe the child's lips and nostrils, moistening the child and cooling him down.
This caused the child to cry again. Wei Xi checked the child and saw his grandson's wet genitals,
complaining, "The child peed, and you didn't even notice, sigh." He then got a clean towel to wipe the child, and
, holding the child in one arm, had his daughter-in-law change the diaper.
Seeing her father-in-law busying himself, especially with his injury, Li Xia couldn't bear it and whispered...
"Don't sleep on the sofa, come with me. It'll be better if something happens and I don't know how to handle it,"
Wei Xi hesitated, too embarrassed to speak. Seeing his father-in-law's hesitation, Li Xia secretly reached
out and grabbed his arm. Wei Xi lowered his head and obediently followed his daughter-in-law into her
bedroom.
On his son's large bed, which was soft and comfortable, Wei Xi leaned against his grandson.
"Let's see tomorrow. If the fever hasn't subsided, we'll go to the hospital again. Don't worry too much,
go to sleep," Wei Xi said to his daughter-in-law. His son's bed was indeed very soft; he himself was
a little uncomfortable lying on it for the first time.
"Your hand must hurt, I know," Li Xia said softly to her father-in-law.
"Yes, go to sleep, everything will be better tomorrow," Wei Xi said, then fell silent.
In the quiet night and quiet bedroom, he heard his daughter-in-law sigh. She glanced at her grandson beside her, whispered
"Go to sleep," and then closed her eyes, suppressing her emotions.
