1970s Gangster Couple NOT MTL

Secretary Qin teased Xiao Xiao and Wang Wei a few times, then hastily left Xiaoqian Village with his entourage.

Wang Desheng and the village cadres saw them off, expressing gratitude and excitement as he patted Wang Wei's shoulder. "Kid, thanks a lot!"

Wang Wei shrugged off Wang Desheng's hand and said, "My wife discovered this; it's not my business."

Wang Desheng and the others laughed. "Xiao Ermei said it herself; you agreed to take out the Jiji grass. Both of you are great. The whole village should thank you, no, the whole country should thank you."

Wang Wei snorted, "Why do I need so much gratitude? I don't need to be praised. Don't look at me so affectionately; it gives me goosebumps." Those wrinkled faces couldn't compare to his wife's beauty.

The village cadres laughed heartily, "Why didn't we notice before? Although Wang Wei is fierce-looking, he's actually a good kid, quite stubborn."

"Let's go!" Wang Wei couldn't stand their increasingly affectionate looks and started rubbing his arms. He grabbed Xiao Xiao and ran.

"Slow down, I can't run..." Xiao Xiao protested.

Wang Wei lifted her up and ran back home like a gust of wind.

Wang Desheng and the others behind them laughed even more joyfully. "These newlyweds really get along well."

Wang Wei carried Xiao Xiao back home, and as soon as he put her on the kang, she couldn't stop laughing while clutching her stomach. Wang Wei pushed her, "Stop laughing!"

Xiao Xiao raised her head, "Brother, are you feeling shy again?"

Wang Wei instantly denied, "Shy? I'm just impatient to listen to their cheesy words. Do I, a grown man, need to feel shy?"

Suppressing her laughter, Xiao Xiao nodded indifferently, "Indeed, you're not shy; you're just shameless."

"No, are you praising me or scolding me?"

"Praising you, praising you. How could I bear to scold you?" She quickly grabbed Wang Wei's sleeve, pleading with a pitiful look, "I'm hungry~"

Only then did Wang Wei remember that they had been woken up early by Xiao Simei and Xiao Wumei, and after all the commotion, he hadn't prepared breakfast for Xiao Xiao. He quickly said, "I'll go make it right away." After taking a few steps, he felt that he was being too soft. He turned around and glared at Xiao Xiao, "It's all because you're useless. Look at whose home has a man cooking while the woman can't do anything?"

"Then teach me, I promise to learn well," she said. She also wanted to overcome this, occasionally wanting to cook a meal for Wang Wei. However, Wang Wei was usually too loud in his complaints, and when it came time to learn, he was reluctant to teach.

"Alright, enough. You're clumsy, and not only did you fail to cook a proper meal, but you also almost demolished the kitchen. Our family can't afford your mess. I get it now; I've married an ancestor. I can't escape the fate of cooking for the rest of my life. Hmph!" He let out a heavy snort, his face full of disdain, but his eyes betrayed a sense of amusement.

They happily enjoyed their breakfast, but the rest of Xiaoqian Village wasn't as calm.

Leaving aside the various emotions others were feeling, Jiang Wenwen couldn't believe what she had just witnessed. When they planted the Jiji grass, everyone in the village, including the educated youth like her, had to participate.

She knew very well that they had planted a small segment of grass root, about the length of a thumb. However, five days later, the grass had indeed sprouted, and just as Xiao Xiao had described, it was even oozing water from its tendrils.
