Switched Marriage The Coddled Little Wife novel Chapter 46

Chapter 46: Chapter 46: Mr. Qin Can Smile, How Novel!

Sensing something, Lin Jiayi’s face blushed with embarrassment, "Cut it out, I’m asking you about how the business is going? It’s been so many days, when can we start doing business?"

Speaking of doing business, Li Guangyuan’s enthusiasm cooled a bit, "Doing business isn’t so easy. The corn in the fields needs fertilizing and I can’t spare the time. How about this, you come to the fields with me these next few days, we’ll start by fertilizing the corn, and once we’re done with the work there, I’ll go to the city to look around."

"You want me to join you working in the fields?" Lin Jiayi asked incredulously.

In her last life, she had never labored in the fields even when she was married to Qin Yang.

"Is this your mother’s idea? Li Guangyuan, have you forgotten what you told me when we first got married? You said I would be treated the same in your family as I was in my parents’ home, and I never did fieldwork there."

"No, no," Li Guangyuan embraced her again, "It’s just that I’m in a rush to do business. If I can’t finish the work in the fields, I won’t have time to look for business opportunities. Besides, you see how upset you get with my two sisters around the house, so it’s better if you come to the fields with me. Out of sight, out of mind; I’m doing this for your own good."

"Why can’t you make Hongmei and Dongmei help you in the fields? They’re grown adults, mooching off without doing any work at home all day."

"If they both leave, who will be left to take care of my mother? If you come with me to the fields, we’ll be away from everyone, and once there, you can do as much or as little work as you want. I will let you be."

Lin Jiayi was finally swayed by these words, nodding her head, "Alright, but let’s be clear, I’m not doing any heavy labor."

"No, no, even if you wanted to, I wouldn’t bear to let you work hard," Li Guangyuan reassured, wrapping his arms around her as his hand slipped inside her clothing.

Lin Jiayi swiftly halted his movement with her hand, "There’s one more thing. Your two sisters are not getting any younger; it’s about time they look for a husband. I’ll see if there are any suitable matches around and have a matchmaker introduce a few."

Li Guangyuan felt a bit awkward, "This matter... Mom hasn’t said anything yet."

"That’s just because she has just been busy with arranging your marriage. She is of age and you expect her to trouble herself with your sisters’ marriages as well? You’re the eldest brother and I’m the eldest sister-in-law; it’s our responsibility to arrange your younger sisters’ marriages. Don’t worry, don’t you trust my judgement? We may have our differences usually, but when it comes to marriages, I’ll definitely find them good matches. If they marry well, it reflects well on us too, doesn’t it?"

Li Guangyuan finally showed a smile, feeling he’d been small-minded.

When his wife mentioned marriage, he was indeed worried she might cause trouble over his sisters’ marriages.

He was being too suspicious.

"My wife truly understands the greater good, I’ll leave this matter to you and I’ll talk to Mom about it."

Lin Jiayi released the hand that restrained his and kissed him voluntarily, "I knew it, in this family, you care for me the most."

A trace of triumph flashed in her eyes.

She intended to marry these two sisters-in-law off far away so when they prospered, they couldn’t come to share the fortune.

Li Guangyuan, relishing in the tenderness of the woman, heaved a sigh of relief in his heart.

Having persuaded his wife to work in the fields, would this satisfy his mother?

...

Amidst the vast Gobi desert, the setting sun cast a fervent glow across the land.

The sound of a bicycle bell echoed in the distance, and upon sighting the postman in green, the nearby people all crowded around.

Communication was inconvenient in their area, with the postman visiting only a few times a week on a rotational basis.

"For Mr. Qin, Mr. Zhao, there’s mail and packages for you," someone who spotted the mail shouted to the figures in the distance.

Qin Yang put down the blueprint in his hands, glanced at his watch, and said to the people around him, "That’s enough for today. We’ll continue the rest tomorrow."

After giving instructions, he then walked towards the postman.

The others had already collected their own mail and packages, smiling and opening their letters as they walked away. Those who had not received anything were filled with envy.
