Rebirth Counterattack with Space-Chapter 35 - How about we go to Haicheng

Lu Aiguo hesitated. If he was alone, he felt there would be no problem for him to go out and forge a path, but now his wife had a daughter. If he went out, what about his wife and daughter?

“Brother Aiguo, it’s not just the two of us. Let sister-in-law and Xiaoyun come along. Going to a big city, for one thing, we’ll get a better price for the wild ginseng. For another, there are more opportunities to make money in a big place. I heard Xiaoyun say, sister-in-law’s hometown is in Haicheng, how about we go there?”

Seeing Lu Aiguo wavering, Shitou added fuel to the fire.

“If we stay in the village, the Su Family, and even my uncle, will stir up trouble. We aren’t afraid, but can sister-in-law and Xiaoyun remain completely unaffected? Besides, are you content to spend your life facing the yellow earth and turning your back to the sky, and then let sister-in-law, Xiaoyun, and your future children continue to lead such a life?”

“…Give me some more time to think,” said Lu Aiguo, still very conflicted and unable to make a final decision. Since ancient times, there’s been a saying, ‘Goods are valued away from home while people are devalued.’ Such a significant decision was obviously hard to make on the spot.

“Brother Aiguo, instead of staying here living in constant fear, worried that Xiaoyun might be coaxed away by the Su Family, wouldn’t it be better for us to move a bit further away? When Xiaoyun grows up, there will be no problems. Discuss it with sister-in-law, will you? I’ll take care of the mosquito net, and I’m going outside to dust off the mat.”

Shitou also knew that Lu Aiguo couldn’t make a decision about such a big matter on the spur of the moment, and that he would definitely want to consult Xia Yuan. Even for himself, he had been pondering this issue all afternoon.

With the matter of Lu Yun’s special space having come out, he believed that Xia Yuan would definitely be willing to leave here.

Shitou took the straw mat outside, giving Lu Aiguo the space to himself.

After Shitou cleaned the straw mat and hung it on the clothesline in the courtyard, Xia Yuan also brought up dinner. It wasn’t the cabbage and pork strip soup she had made or the leftover steamed buns reheated from the daytime but a bowl of beef noodle soup for each person.

The things Xia Yuan had made were taken straight into Lu Yun’s space.

Knowing that Lu Yun’s space could keep food just as it was, Shitou simply proposed in front of everyone to also put the ginseng into her “big warehouse”.

Xia Yuan had no objections, and naturally, Lu Yun had no issues with it either; firstly, her space was safe, and secondly, what Lu Yun didn’t say was that herbs and plants could even improve in quality when stored in her space.

Lu Aiguo had been in a daydreaming state the entire time, not sure if he had heard clearly, he just absentmindedly nodded along. Throughout the entire process of putting up the mosquito net and coming out to eat, he was somewhat distracted, completely ignoring the robustly delicious, handmade beef noodles he was chewing. This provoked Xia Yuan to kick him several times, resulting in him snapping back to reality for a moment before slipping back into his reverie.

Lu Yun looked at Shitou, and seeing his subtle nod, she couldn’t help but laugh.

Dad was hesitating at the moment, and she knew that mom would be tempted to return to Haicheng when she found out at night. Even if they weren’t tempted, she would persuade them until they were.

Haicheng, that was the place she had always been familiar with, and she also hoped that there, her own family could start over a happy and fulfilling life.

After dinner, Lu Aiguo had Xia Yuan take Lu Yun to bathe first. By the time they came out, Lu Aiguo and Shitou had already tidied up the kitchen.

That evening, as Xia Yuan sat on the bed getting ready to sleep and saw Lu Aiguo climb into bed still in a daze, she temporarily set aside her constant worry for Lu Yun, reached out, and pinched the flesh on his waist, “What’s exactly the matter with you?”

“Ouch, ouch, Wife, are you trying to murder your own husband?” Lu Aiguo cried out in pain, looking at Xia Yuan with a face full of grievance.

“Ever since dinner, you’ve been acting strange. What’s going on?”

Xia Yuan’s brows furrowed. Being with Lu Aiguo, she had grown accustomed to his indulgence, finding that her temper rose in his presence—hmm, Xia Yuan reflected for a moment—this habit wasn’t good; she would need to rein it in going forward.

However, Lu Aiguo obviously didn’t think so; deep down, he actually cherished the feisty energy his wife showed towards him, which made him feel that the two were incredibly close. So at this moment, he relaxed and shared the thoughts he had been weighing for a long time.

“Wife, how about we move to Haicheng?”

“Move to Haicheng…”

She hadn’t misheard, had she? Xia Yuan’s expression suddenly became focused, and she stared blankly at Lu Aiguo, then, in a voice hoarser than she realized, said, “Sure, it would be nice to go have a look. It’s been so many years since we have been back; it’s a good opportunity to take Xiaoyun to pay respects to her maternal grandparents.”

“No, I mean we would stay in Haicheng and live there.” Lu Aiguo looked intently for her reaction.

“What, what did you say?” Xia Yuan sat up in shock.
