In two more days, the machine tools would be installed, then the adjustment would be finished, and the final payment would be settled. 

Then, he could collect his commission!

After giving Yan Su his half, he would still have 14,500 yuan left. 

With a bit more saved up, he could buy another house.

Qiao Qiao would definitely be happy and would be even gentler tonight.….. 

Gu Ye’s heart fluttered, and he whistled cheerfully, riding home as if flying. 

He was looking forward to the two big dinners tonight. His wife’s cooking was great, but the evening’s ‘other meal’ piqued his interest even more.

He whistled all the way home, still whistling as he reached the doorstep. 

Chu Qiao had already prepared dinner. 

Dabao and Xiaobao had washed their hands and were sitting obediently. 

They both offered Gu Ye sympathetic looks before lowering their heads and ignoring him.

Auntie was in a bad mood today, they needed to keep a low profile and not get dragged down by Uncle Gu.

“Dinner’s early today! I’ll go wash my hands!”

Gu Ye didn’t notice anything unusual and jogged off to wash up. 

He returned eagerly, but the moment he sat down, his face scrunched up like a bitter melon. 

The table was filled with several elaborate dishes: stir-fried bitter melon with eggs, stir-fried bitter melon with meat, stewed bitter melon with pork ribs, stuffed bitter melon, bitter melon salad, a sea of green bitter melon. 

-Stir-fried bitter melon with eggs

-Stir-fried bitter melon with meat 

-Stewed bitter melon with pork ribs

-Stuffed bitter melon 

-Bitter melon salad 

It was his most hated bitter melon.

“Qiao Qiao, are there any other dishes?” 

Gu Ye asked cautiously.

“Nope. Eat it if you want, or go hungry if you don’t!”

Chu Qiao shot him a glare and served herself a bowl of bitter melon with pork rib soup. 

She was furious and needed the bitter melon to cool her anger. 

Dabao and Xiaobao also ate quietly. 

They didn’t like bitter melons, but they didn’t despise them. They could still tolerate it for one dinner.

-Bitter melon with pork ribs soup 

Gu Ye looked at the children, hoping for a hint. 

But Dabao and Xiaobao kept their heads down, silent and unhelpful. 

They didn’t know what was wrong either, Auntie had been like this since they got home. So they couldn’t help Uncle Gu.

Dabao and Xiaobao finished their meals quickly and ran out to gather intel from their friends. 

Soon, they had firsthand news. Then Dabao ran back and waved at Gu Ye, who was gritting his teeth through the bitter melon. 

Gu Ye hurried outside, and Dabao quickly said, “Some lunatic came and cursed at Auntie. Auntie is really angry because of something you said outside, Uncle Gu.”

The information left Gu Ye utterly confused. When has he ever said anything wrong?

But what concerned him more was which lunatic had come to bully his wife. 

Gu Ye’s face darkened as he went inside, poured a large bowl of bitter melon soup over his rice, and wolfed it down. The bitter taste filled his mouth, so intense that he felt like vomiting.

Seeing him like this, Chu Qiao couldn’t bear it anymore and pressed down on his bowl. 

“Don’t eat it!”

“Who bullied my wife? Tell me, and I’ll beat them to a pulp.” 

Gu Ye said with a smile, gently pinching Chu Qiao’s cheek as if protecting a child.

Chu Qiao had been pretending to look fine, but his gesture made her eyes redden with grievance. 

She accused, “It’s all because of the trouble you caused! Who told you to go around saying we weren’t having children?”

“I never said that…” 

Gu Ye protested innocently, but he quickly figured out the reason and smacked his forehead in frustration. 

It must have been that gossipy family planning director. 

He hurriedly explained, “I went to get contraceptives, and the director asked if we weren’t having children. I only agreed casually, I meant we weren’t having any ‘for now’. But that woman twisted my words! Don’t be angry, Qiao Qiao. I’ll go confront her right now!” 

“What’s the point now? It’s already spread throughout the factory. That lunatic named Zhang Suqin labeled me a vixen, said that I had many abortions and hence couldn’t have children, and even accused me of seducing her husband! I don’t even know what her husband looks like! I’m so mad, it’s all your fault!”

Like a child, Chu Qiao hammered Gu Ye’s chest a few times, finally venting some of her pent-up anger.

Gu Ye coaxed his wife with gentle words, but deep inside, he felt furious. 

Did Zhang Suqin eat garbage growing up? And what about her husband? Both of them were lunatics. He needed to stand up for his wife.
