Chapter 61: Chapter 61: Having a Meal

Translator: 549690339

This little wife was really full of surprises. Chu Molin poured a bowl of wine for Xie Jun and Xu Fangzhou, and then for himself, filling the room with the fragrance of peach blossoms in an instant.

“Such a strong peach blossom scent, Molin, you’re really not being fair.

You’ve had such good wine in your house and you didn’t take it out to drink but hid it away. If your sister-in-law hadn’t brought it out today, were you planning to drink it all by yourself?

But the wine in your house is really too fragrant. Just look at the whole room filled with the scent of peach blossoms. If we didn’t know better, we’d think your whole house was filled with peach blossoms, right?

When did you pick the peach blossoms and brew the wine? How come we didn’t know about it?” As expected of Xu Fangzhou, he said so many words without taking a breath.

Chu Molin noticed Qin Xue’s panicked expression when Xu Fangzhou said these words.

Though she quickly recovered, he still caught it. In fact, he wanted to know when his home had acquired these wines too.

He was very clear that the box had no wine when it was brought back at noon today, but now, half a day had passed and not only was there wine, but it was also a hundred-year-old fine wine. Who could tell him what was going on? But seeing Qin Xue’s helpless look, he could only take over the conversation:

“It’s not like I picked the peach blossoms and brewed the wine myself. Remember that time I went out for a stroll during vacation, and I ran into an old man selling wine?

I felt sorry for him and thought he was an old man having a hard time, so I took the money out and bought some.

At the time, the old man said it was good wine and sold it at a high price. I even thought it was expensive.

But seeing his pitiful appearance, I gave him all the US$ 100 and some cash I had on me and only bought a little bit.

After bringing it back and putting it in the house, I forgot all about it. It must have been Xue’er who found it while cleaning, right Xue’er?”

Qin Xue had to nod at her husband’s smooth lie and say it was true. How could she explain to others: No, this was processed in my secret space. Otherwise, they might take her away for dissection and research.

“Alright, you guys hurry up and drink the wine, let’s eat before it gets cold.” Fang Hong saw them all chatting endlessly.

“Yes, yes, let’s eat, enjoy the dishes.” Qin Xue quickly changed the subject. Seeing that Chu Molin had just covered for her, she picked up a piece of sweet and sour ribs and put it in front of him, signaling him to eat.

Qin Xue touched her earlobe, feeling relieved. She had originally wanted to give Li Zhao and An Hao some wine, but after this incident, she decided not to take it out so easily.

Just as everyone was eating and drinking merrily, there was a knock on the door.

Qin Xue wanted to open the door but was stopped by Fang Hong: “Your belly is big, and it’s inconvenient for you. I’ll help you open it.”

“Oh, chief, are you guys having dinner? I didn’t see Deputy Chief having dinner, so I brought you and your sister-in-law some food.”

Li Dabao stood outside the door, smelling the wine and food from inside the house, and longed for it. It had been a long time since he smelled such delicious food.

“Ah, it’s Da Bao. You’re here to bring food to your deputy chief, right? Come on in.”

Fang Hong didn’t think it was strange, because it used to be Li Dabao who brought food to Chu Molin and Qin Xue.

Now that he had just come back and didn’t know about Qin Xue’s change, he still brought food like he used to.

Qin Xue stood up: “Da Bao, have you eaten? If not, come and eat with us.”

Seeing the two lunch boxes in his hand, Qin Xue guessed he hadn’t eaten yet and had brought the food to them first.

“No need, sister-in-law. You guys eat, I’ll eat this. I’ll go ahead.” With the three chiefs present, Li Dabao, no matter how greedy, didn’t dare to stay and freeload.

“Don’t be like that. We just started eating. As long as you don’t mind, just stay and eat with us. There’s not much in the way of good dishes, just some home-cooked food.” Qin Xue pulled Chu Molin to make room.

“Da Bao, don’t dawdle, sit down when you’re told to.” Qin Xue picked up her bowl of fish soup and went to sit on the bench in the living room, making room for Li Dabao.

“Sister-in-law, you sit, I’m fine standing.” Li Dabao looked at Qin Xue and realized that the woman his boss had helped this morning was his own wife. No wonder.

Xie Jun and Xu Fangzhou both kept quiet. They were guests, and Chu Molin and Qin Xue were the hosts. This situation was not suitable for them to speak. “Alright, you guys stop arguing. I’ll go get a chair.”

Fang Hong quickly went back and brought a chair over, inserting it between

Chu Molin and Mr. Xu. The men sat in one group, while the women and two children sat together..
