Switched Marriage: The Coddled Little Wife-Chapter 321: At This Moment, the Image of the Wife Becomes More Tangible

Chapter 321: Chapter 321: At This Moment, the Image of the Wife Becomes More Tangible

Mrs. Qin was cooking in the kitchen and discussed with Lin Chuxia, "We’ve hired so many people, and we’re not even planning a meal for them. Yangyang says it’s too much trouble. What do you think about providing a meal for people who have worked for us? What’s so troublesome about that?"

Mrs. Qin and her generation had been through decades of shared production and found it difficult to change their mindset.

"Mom, just listen to Qin Yang. Whatever he says, goes," Lin Chuxia replied, suggesting they could afford it.

Since Lin Chuxia said the same, Mrs. Qin dropped the subject.

After dinner, Lin Chuxia returned to her room first.

Qin Yang, who was chatting with Mr. Qin and Qin Han, glanced over in that direction.

Knowing that Qin Han spent every day with his wife, he knew his brother’s plight and patted him on the shoulder, "It’s getting late. You should go back to your room and rest; I need to sleep too, as I have to get up early tomorrow."

He finished with a smile and winked at Qin Yang.

Qin Yang thought his older brother was a bit silly. Did they really need to play this kind of charade?

Still, he didn’t stay any longer, said goodnight to Mr. Qin, and returned to his room.

Inside, Lin Chuxia was folding freshly washed clothes under the soft yellow light, making the usually decisive and vigorous young woman appear gentle and serene, which softened Qin Yang’s heart.

At this moment, the image of his wife became even more real to him.

Seeing him come in and stay silently for a long time, Lin Chuxia looked up and asked, "What’s wrong?" and then continued with what she was doing.

"How was today? Did things go smoothly?" Qin Yang joined her and watched her fold clothes.

"The results are still unknown. Li Jian said that it likely won’t be resolved before the Mid-Autumn Festival. It’s quite complicated," she said.

She shared the day’s news with Qin Yang, focusing on the possibility of Duan Shixin’s involvement and his relationship with Bai County.

Qin Yang frowned slightly, "What do you think about this?"

Lin Chuxia straightened her posture, looked at him, and sighed, "What can I think? I’m just a small business owner. Even if I have Xiyang Food Factory, it’s still a private enterprise. Everyone says you can’t bend the arm to win against the thigh. The Old Food Factory has deep roots and complex connections. Look, just because Liu Guoyi thinks a little bit too hard, he can turn my world upside down. However, I am not willing to let it go just like that. I heard Bai County is a man of action who supports policies and promotes private enterprises. Rationally, I believe in Bai County, but emotionally, when it comes to Duan Shixin... Let’s take it one step at a time. It’s rare for the family to celebrate Mid-Autumn Festival together. Let’s enjoy the festival and not let these issues affect our mood."

Qin Yang took her hand and smiled tenderly at her, "You’re right. No matter what and no matter when, we can’t let anything affect our mood," and he wouldn’t let the rumors affect his wife’s mood either.

"By the way, what time are you reporting for work tomorrow?"

Qin Yang came to his senses, "Tomorrow morning, I should get up early. There are things to handle, and I’ll probably be back by evening."

"Running around for an entire day," Lin Chuxia frowned slightly, "I’ll ask Houzi to drive and follow you. The factory just bought a new model 121. It will be good to break it in."

"No need for him to follow, he can just drive me there early in the morning. The motorcycle I ordered should have arrived by then; I’ll ride it back."

He took the train back earlier, and although he took as much luggage as he could carry, the motorcycle had to be shipped because it was difficult to handle.

"That’s fine," she agreed and continued folding clothes.

Qin Yang watched her for a moment, making sure she hadn’t heard those rumors, or even if she had, her disposition wouldn’t let it affect her mood.

As for the authenticity of those rumors, Qin Yang had no doubts. Although he hadn’t spent much actual time with Lin Chuxia, he knew exactly what kind of person his little wife was.

He considered that if one day his wife chose someone else, it would mean he, as a husband, hadn’t been good enough, which caused her to leave him.

And Qin Yang was determined to prevent that day from ever coming.

After admiring his wife’s competent and nurturing aura for a while longer, Qin Yang pulled out a wad of money from his pocket and handed it to her.

"Is this your salary?" Lin Chuxia placed the folded clothes in the wardrobe without reaching for the money.

"No, it’s the rent from my older brother. He said you spent all the money on the house yourself, so we’ve kept track of it with Dad. Including the money for renovations, it’s about 1200 yuan in total, and this 600 is my brother’s share."

Even though they had already divided the family property, many things were not clearly separated.

Take the housing land, for instance. Besides the backyard, there was also a front yard, and the new house was built in the front yard.

Except for living in separate rooms, the front and backyards were still shared by the whole family.

When the house was being built, Lin Chuxia wanted it to be for everyone’s use, so it was not unreasonable for Qin Han to contribute this money.

After putting the clothes away, Lin Chuxia poured herself a glass of water, "Give the money back to my brother tomorrow."

Since they were on this topic, Lin Chuxia had decided to properly discuss her thoughts with Qin Yang.

"I’ve thought about this issue for a long time, hear me out, and if it doesn’t sound good, just forget I mentioned it."

Qin Yang was pleased to hear her discussing things so seriously with him, "Go ahead."

He had already decided, whatever his wife planned, he would support her if he could.

He would not let her speak for nothing.

Lin Chuxia was unaware of his thoughts, but due to previous events, she and Qin Yang hadn’t communicated much, leaving him feeling insecure.

Moreover, since it involved the family, it was proper for Qin Yang to make the final decision.

"I never intended for my older brother to pay for the house."

Qin Yang looked at his wife, thinking that the house they lived in was indeed quite old, having been built over a decade ago.

Besides, it was inconvenient for him and his brother, along with their parents, to live in a row of houses.

At night, if they wanted to be noisier while being intimate, his wife’s restrained manner...

Ultimately, having a new house would be much more convenient if they split the front and back yards.

Qin Yang’s thoughts drifted off as Lin Chuxia continued, "My older brother and his wife have put a lot into the Bun Shop, and their wage doesn’t nearly match their efforts. Besides, whether it’s the new house in front or the house we live in, I haven’t planned on taking any of it. Once you’re transferred to the city, our life will mainly revolve around you. Just coming back here occasionally, one room is enough for us. If in the future my brother wants to rebuild the old house, we would just need a room to stay in when we come back. There’s no need for us to quibble over these little bits of property with my brother, don’t you think?"

Although the land value of the urban village could grow significantly in the future, she could easily invest elsewhere.

In terms of land, Xiyang Food Factory spanned thousands of square meters, with all property rights in her hands. There really was no need to covet the small portion the family had.
