Chapter 411: Chapter 411: How Do You Know So Much?
"I know the kind of house you’re talking about. They’re very convenient," Hua Yusen said with a light chuckle. "If you’d like, I can find someone to come and help us renovate in a little while."
’What kind of renovation could we even do right now? We can’t use this, we can’t use that... there are restrictions everywhere.’ Zhao Nuanyue couldn’t be bothered with it.
’Even if we wanted to, we can’t get the materials for so many things.’
’I’ll wait until people’s mindsets have changed. Then I’ll properly renovate the house.’
"Let’s not for now. It’s almost the end of the year, and we still have so much to do. We don’t need to be spending our energy on this," Zhao Nuanyue advised. "We need to focus more on our work. I don’t want you to slack off just because you’re married to me. If that happens, not only will your parents be angry with me, but I’m guessing Elder Gu would hold it against me too."
"Haha..." Hua Yusen chuckled. "It’s just a small renovation, not as serious as you’re making it out to be! But boiling water every day to wash up is a pain, and the pot we have isn’t very big. I’ve decided to get a small boiler installed. It’ll make washing up and bathing much more convenient."
Hearing Hua Yusen say that, Zhao Nuanyue had to agree that constantly boiling water was a hassle. ’If we had a boiler, we could renovate the bathroom first. Taking a proper bath would be so much easier.’ For a family that valued cleanliness, it would certainly simplify things.
The environment in Nianqiao Village was beautiful. Building a house here would make it a great place to vacation and escape the summer heat in the future. Most importantly, what mattered to Zhao Nuanyue was that this was the Little Red Carp’s birthplace and a place under the Dragon King’s protection.
It held special significance not just for the Little Red Carp, but also for Zhao Nuanyue, Zhao Nuan Yang, and even Hua Yusen.
Here, they had found new hope and a new life. Deep in their hearts, Nianqiao Village would always be different, always the most special place.
In the future, after Zhao Nuanyue’s house was finished, the people of Nianqiao Village would take special notice of it. They thought a house built like that was truly wonderful. When they had the money, they too wanted to build such a large house for their whole family to live in—that would be the life.
For a while, many people came to the courtyard to take a look. The furniture and interior design, in particular, were a real eye-opener for everyone. It inspired them to work hard and earn good money, so they too could have a house and furniture like people from the city.
Hua Yusen’s words deeply moved Zhao Nuanyue.
But she wasn’t so moved that she would let Hua Yusen’s imagination run wild. To keep him from getting distracted, Zhao Nuanyue snatched the exquisite little booklet from him, placed it in her trunk, and locked it away.
"Confiscated! No more daydreaming," Zhao Nuanyue said, glaring at Hua Yusen. ’He’s impossible.’
"It doesn’t matter if you confiscate it. I’ve already memorized everything!" Hua Yusen said, seeing right through her and snickering to himself.
Blushing, Zhao Nuanyue clapped a hand over Hua Yusen’s mouth. "Can you just say a little less? Now hurry up and go to sleep!"
"Haha..." Hua Yusen let out a hearty laugh. He had discovered a secret: his Nuanyue was always so shy at night, not at all like her sharp-tongued self from the daytime.
’Well, in that case... During the day, he would let his Little Nuanyue have her way in everything. And at night, she would have to let him have his way.’
Zhao Nuanyue closed her eyes, pretending to be asleep. But Hua Yusen, lying beside her, couldn’t seem to fall asleep. After a while, he reached over and took her hand.
