Chapter 788: Things Couples Do
Hepburn’s face was flushed with a slight redness, clearly embarrassed.
"You know, there are so many homophones in Chinese..."
It wasn’t his fault.
Xiang Chu kept complaining, "Also yesterday, when I visited a classmate’s house, he found out my friend studied Chinese medicine too and insisted on tagging along.
Then, halfway through, my friend said he needed to ’excuse himself.’ Hepburn asked me what ’instant noodles’ meant. I told him it meant going to the bathroom, and he just said ’oh’ and didn’t ask anything else.
When we were leaving, my friend walked us out and mentioned he would ’take the opportunity to buy some instant noodles’ at the supermarket.
And this idiot suddenly blurted out, ’Are you eating noodles made from shit?’
My friend’s face turned green!"
Mentioning this made Xiang Chu feel like hitting someone; he had never been so embarrassed in his life!
He swore, he would never go out with this fool again!
Hepburn’s face was so red it looked like it was about to burst. Could he be blamed for this, could he?!
Meanwhile, Xia Weibao couldn’t stop laughing, almost jabbing the needle in the wrong acupuncture point.
Zhong Wanshu couldn’t help but smile as well.
She was dying of laughter.
What a weirdo.
That evening, Lu Hualiang had planned to take Xia Weibao out for dinner for some couple time.
However, Zhong Wanshu insisted on keeping them.
She also gave her son a stern look, saying it’s not easy for them to visit, yet they wouldn’t even stay for a meal.
After the meal, Lu Hualiang quickly left with his wife.
Lu Huashan was so angry she went on a rampage— they hadn’t even eaten the cake!!!
"Mom, look at brother, he’s way out of line!"
She had made that cake by herself, ah ah ah ah ah.
Zhong Wanshu scorned her, "Whose fault is it if you’re not capable? You had him here and still let him get away."
Lu Huashan’s face was instantly flushed with embarrassment.
"Alright, alright, I’ll be able to get out of bed and walk in a few days, and then we’ll move to Lu Garden."
Lu Huashan’s eyes lit up—that was a great idea! With her mother present, she didn’t believe her brother would dare to refuse her entry!
"Why are we in such a hurry to leave? Where are we going?" Xia Weibao asked somewhat speechlessly.
She had rarely visited the Lishan Side Courtyard and had wanted to spend some more time playing with Hua Shan, but to her surprise, she was whisked away.
"To the supermarket."
Lu Hualiang hit the brakes, stopping at the traffic light.
Then he took her chin in his hands, leaned over, and pecked her lips with a kiss.
"We are going to buy ingredients to make a cake."
He had originally planned to take her out to celebrate, and the cake had been ordered.
But seeing how diligently Lu Huashan had baked a cake that day, he felt they should make their own.
It would be more meaningful that way.
Xia Weibao was at a loss for words, "Hua Shan also made me a cake, and I haven’t even eaten it yet."
That’s because I won’t let you!
Of course, he wouldn’t say that out loud.
The couple went to the supermarket; Lu Hualiang went to get a shopping cart while Xia Weibao, like the wind, headed straight for the snack aisle.
When Lu Hualiang arrived with the cart, he saw she already had her arms full.
Lu Hualiang, "..."
Well, he had married a foodie wife—what more could he say?
The groceries at home were always procured by Housekeeper Fu, and Lu Hualiang didn’t know what was in the fridge, so he bought all the ingredients himself.
Watching Xia Weibao darting around, snatching up anything that caught her eye, he quickly filled up a whole shopping cart.
Utterly speechless.
"Wife, these things have no nutritional value and aren’t healthy."
"Don’t worry, I know how to live healthily," she replied.
Lu Hualiang thought about it; if she could expel hormones from her body, then these processed foods probably wouldn’t be an issue. He decided not to interfere.
They switched to another cart, and then he saw a young couple nearby, sweetly in love. The girl sat inside the cart while the boy pushed it, both laughing and talking.
Glancing back at himself, his wife was ahead on a shopping spree, and he followed behind with the cart, feeling rather lonely.
