The Fat Wife of the 1980s Awakens

Xu Xiufang was expecting Xie Yi to speak, and Xie Yi did ask, but it was a sentence: "Wife, is there anything to keep me warm? Why do I feel a little cold?"

Xu Xiufang was a little amused when she heard that. She took out a hot water bottle from her bag and put it on Xie Yi's back.

Feeling the warmth, Xie Yi called softly: "Wife, come closer, aren't you cold?"

Xu Xiufang held the hot water bottle tightly around his waist, and finally couldn't help asking the question in her heart: "Brother Yi, are you really not curious at all and don't want to ask me something?"

"Nothing I want to ask," Xie Yi's expression was pure and innocent, as if he really had no curiosity at all.

Xu Xiufang's doubts grew even stronger. She couldn't help but reach into his cotton coat and gently pinched his waist. "Are you still playing dumb with me?"

Xu Xiufang used some strength to twist it, and Xie Yi felt pain and begged for mercy: "Wife, it hurts."

"It hurts your head," Xu Xiufang said firmly, but her hands loosened and she even rubbed his head. "I'm telling you, this is the only chance. If you don't ask, I won't tell you again in the future!"

Xie Yi restrained his smile and answered seriously: "Wife, I'm afraid you don't want to say it."

"If I don't want to tell you, you won't ask?"

Xu Xiufang asked back.

"Yeah," Xie Yi responded.

Xu Xiufang felt mixed emotions. This man always doted on her like this, which made her inexplicably moved.

Xie Yi made another request: "But I have a request."

"What request?"

Xu Xiufang was curious that he actually used the word "request".

Xie Yi said seriously: "Don't erase my memory, I don't want to forget anything about you."

Xu Xiufang was surprised: "Do you think I'm a monster?"

"No," Xie Yi shook his head, "I think you are a god."

Xu Xiufang was speechless for a moment, and blurted out: "It is not allowed to become a spirit after the founding of the People's Republic of China."

"So you have magic?"

Xie Yi asked back.

"You think I have magic?"

Xu Xiufang frowned and asked back.

"Yes," Xie Yi answered confidently.

Xu Xiufang pursed her lips and had to admit that her ability to move objects out of thin air was indeed not much different from magic.

"It's not convenient to explain in detail outside now. I'll show you when I get home tonight."

Xu Xiufang suggested.

"Row!"

Xie Yi's lips curled up. What he cared about most was that she was willing to share that amazing secret with him.

Xu Xiufang pressed on: "Have you figured out that I have a secret?"

"Ah."

Xie Yi answered briefly.

"When did you find out?"

"Since you said you wanted to live a good life with me two years ago."

It turned out that he had noticed something not long after she came back.

Xu Xiufang knew in her heart that with Xie Yi's keen sense, and the fact that they lived together day and night and slept in the same bed, her unusualness would be discovered sooner or later.

But she couldn't give up the convenience of using the space because she was afraid of being discovered.

Sometimes, she even took advantage of Xie Yi's favor for her, and even though she knew it might leave loopholes, she couldn't help but use the items in the space.

This trust and dependence allowed her to find a little comfort in her life in another world.

Xu Xiufang's eyes sparkled with curiosity, and she asked softly, "For more than two years, you have always thought that I was like a god. Have you never considered for even a moment that I might be a monster or some other non-human being?"

There was a hint of amusement in her voice, as if she was looking forward to the answer to this question.

"Actually," Xie Yi's voice came through the night. Although Xu Xiufang couldn't see his face, from his relaxed and slightly teasing tone, she seemed to be able to imagine the smile on the corner of his mouth. "There was really a moment when such a thought flashed through my mind!"

His frankness made the atmosphere in the air subtle and interesting.

Xu Xiufang heard this and an expression of disbelief suddenly appeared on her face. She didn't expect that this man who looked steady on weekdays actually had such a bizarre idea! "Weren't you scared at the time?"

She demanded, her tone showing both surprise and a hint of amusement.

"Once I knew for sure that person was you, I had no fear at all."

Xie Yi's answer was firm and warm, as if no doubts could shake his trust in her.

"But I quickly put that thought out of my mind."

He added, with a hint of self-mockery in his tone.

"Why are you so sure?"

Xu Xiufang asked curiously.

"Because of you, I have never hurt anyone."

Xie Yi's words were simple and powerful, and every word was like a drumbeat beating on the heart, making it impossible to refute.

"Your kindness and gentleness are my deepest trust."

"But if I am really a deity as you say, then I haven't done anything great to save the world."

Xu Xiufang laughed at herself.

"Yes, I have!"

Xie Yi immediately interjected, his tone full of unquestionable affirmation.

"Who?"

Xu Xiufang asked doubtfully.

"I!"

Xie Yi's answer left Xu Xiufang speechless for a moment, but a warm feeling surged in her heart.

She shook her head and decided not to dwell on this topic any further. After all, her man was always so sentimental, and this was part of what she loved.

When they returned to that warm little home, Xie Chunyan had already returned to the old house, and Feng Dongling also hurried back to the county town.

When I opened the door, I was greeted by the warmth of home. Little Bao was standing on the threshold, his face full of anticipation. When he saw his parents, he immediately jumped for joy, shouting in his tender voice, "Mom and Dad are back!"

Then it ran over like a happy little bird, with its little face filled with happiness and joy.

Inside the house, Dabao came out holding Xiaoyun in his arms. Seeing his mother and father returning safely, his tense heart finally relaxed. He hurried forward, his eyes full of concern: "Mom, you are finally back. We were so worried."

Xu Xiufang jumped off the bicycle and smiled apologetically: "I'm sorry to have worried you. Something delayed me on the way. Erbao is cooking, right?"

She sniffed the aroma of food in the air and felt a warm feeling in her heart.

"Yes, Mom."

Dabao answered, but his eyes involuntarily fell on his father's blood-stained collar, and a barely perceptible worry flashed in his eyes.

Xie Yi saw his son's worry and quickly comforted him, "I'm fine, Dabao, take Xiaoyun into the house first, it's cold outside."

Dabao nodded sensibly and didn't ask any more questions. He knew that his parents had their considerations and as long as they were safe, he carefully carried Xiaoyun into the house.

Xu Xiufang and Xie Yi walked into the kitchen and saw Erbao busy frying dishes in front of the stove. Xu Xiufang naturally sat down to help add firewood to the fire and told Xie Yi to get some hot water for a bath.

Xie Yi also realized that he was covered in dust and sweat, so he didn't refuse and walked to the well with a bucket, ready to wash himself thoroughly.

When he washed off his tiredness and returned home, the table was already filled with hot meals. Although dinner was a little later than usual, the warmth of the family sitting together made the meal particularly delicious.
