Sometimes, being kept in the dark by everyone's collective effort is a form of happiness. Shen Weimin felt his mother-in-law was truly blessed in that regard.
Unlike his wife, who was constantly bothered by people with matters big and small, trivial and important. Good news was one thing, but the sheer number of troublesome incidents was just endless.
But that was alright; it was his job to dote on his own wife. Before leaving Baizigou for the county town the next morning, Shen Weimin first took her back to Xiangyang Team.
Once home, he found an excuse to send Shen Jiugu out to the tofu workshop, then pulled Xu Changqing into the basement and let her happily "collect" the roomful of hemp sacks.
Then he took her to the main house to see his grandparents. Just as he had imagined, his grandma held his wife's hand, patting it again and again, making her bloom with happiness like a flower.
