Back to the 1980s: Becoming the Villain's Lucky Wife

Chapter 375: Chapter 375: I Can’t Believe My Son Is So Useless

Cooking for such a large family every day was quite the chore, but Su Yun didn’t see it that way. As far as she was concerned, taking care of her family wasn’t a chore at all.

When she saw her daughter approach holding a bowl, she asked, "Did you get hungry last night and cook something for yourself?"

"It was for Shen Yi. He got back in the middle of the night. His business dealings should be mostly settled. We’re going to school to register today, and once we’re done there, we’ll go check on the factory. Mom, we’ve picked a name for the clothing factory—what do you think of Jiu Yi?"

"Whatever name you two decide on is fine. I don’t know anything about this stuff. Come on, I’ll get you some tofu pudding, and then I’ll make some youtiao and chive pockets, and cook some congee. Oh, and I’ve already prepared the pickled vegetables. You can put them on a plate for me."

"Okay."

A moment later, Qin Zhonghui came over. He wasn’t one to sit idle, so upon seeing his wife and daughter bustling about, he immediately washed his hands and took the frying pan from his wife, Su Yun. ƒгeewebnovёl.com

Qin Jiao sighed contentedly. "My dad is such a good man, so worried about tiring Mom out."

Qin Zhonghui chuckled, but Su Yun playfully swatted her daughter. "So you know how to tease your parents now, huh? If you’re that envious, the solution is simple. Just have Xiao Yi learn how to cook."

But Qin Jiao shook her head. "I’m not going to train him. What if I’m just training him for someone else?"

Su Yun didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, but she knew better than to press the issue.

She said, "Oh, right, Xiao Jiao. You and Shen Yi should go to the school by yourselves later. I have to take Xiao Shi and Xiao Cheng, and your dad and the others have to go to the clothing factory."

"Got it. We know our way around better than you guys do, so we’ll be fine on our own. Don’t worry. Besides, we don’t have to bring any luggage. Once we’re done with our school stuff and if we don’t have class, we’ll come find you at the factory."

"That works."

Meanwhile, Du Liya had stayed up all night making a few sample garments and was eager to show them to Qin Jiao. Thinking Qin Jiao wasn’t up yet, she pushed the door open and went right in, only to see Shen Yi sleeping in Qin Jiao’s bed.

Du Liya froze. "Xiao Yi, what are you doing in Xiao Jiao’s bed?"

"Well, who’s supposed to be in her bed?" Shen Yi yawned, his hair tousled and sticking up, looking utterly languid.

Seeing his mother’s shocked and wildly expressive face, Shen Yi knew exactly what she was thinking. He said helplessly, "Mom, nothing happened last night. I just got back around dawn, and the bed in the other room was too cold, so Jiao Jiao let me sleep in here."

Du Liya scoffed. "To think my son is so useless!"

’They were already sharing a bed, and there was still no progress at all!’

Faced with his mother’s disdain, Shen Yi was helpless. He’d long had thousands of ideas about Jiao Jiao, thousands of positions he wanted to try. But his rational side told him that if she didn’t agree, daring to try even one of those positions would mean forfeiting his chance to ever try the others.

Shen Yi said, "Mom, what are you doing here so early? And by the way, even when you’re coming to your son’s house, remember to knock next time, okay?"

"Alright, alright. Why don’t you give me a reason to have to knock first! I only came because I made a few sample garments and wanted Xiao Jiao to take a look."

"Oh, she’s probably in the kitchen."

"Then I’m off to the kitchen!" Du Liya rushed out in a flurry. But before Shen Yi could even finish his yawn, she was back.

She asked, "Xiao Yi, how was your trip to the South? Did you close the deal?"

Shen Yi’s mouth twitched. ’Only now does she think to ask,’ he thought wryly. ’That’s my mom, alright.’
