Switched Marriage: The Coddled Little Wife-Chapter 9 - Uncle, Why Is Your Face Red?

Lin Chuxia's lips curled slightly, already guessing that the child must be from Brother Qin's family.

That child was so certain even without seeing the person, such admiration for her husband's younger brother.

Several small figures sneakily entered from the doorway, unable to see clearly through the veil, a few little kids stood two meters away from her for a while, then continued forward, with one little head finally poking beneath the veil, tilting back and blinking big eyes looking upwards.

Lin Chuxia saw the child's thick eyebrows and big eyes, a robust and curious look, which involuntarily brought a smile to her lips.

The little fellow seeing her smile, also widely grinned.

The other two kids, who were initially a bit shy, saw Zhuangzhuang's expression and also curiously came closer.

"Let me have a look."

"I want to see too..."

A few little heads jostled in front of her, Lin Chuxia simply pulled down the veil, startling the children into stepping back several paces.

However, after the scare, the three children almost simultaneously exclaimed in awe.

"Wow, Zhuangzhuang, your auntie is so pretty," the little girl spoke first.

"It's not just Zhuangzhuang's auntie; she's my auntie too, and Niuniu, she's also your aunt," the slightly older little boy said with a hint of discontent.

The proudest of them was Zhuangzhuang, puffing up his little chest and raising his chin high, "I didn't lie to you guys, my uncle is so handsome, my aunt must be the prettiest."

The little girl was still batting her eyelashes while gazing at Lin Chuxia, nodding in agreement to the words, "Auntie looks like a fairy."

Lin Chuxia was amused by her serious look and beckoned the children over, pulling out some candies from her pocket.

The kids, who were initially somewhat afraid of Lin Chuxia, came over at the sight of candies; no child could refuse sweets.

And besides, the bride was smiling so prettily.

Lin Chuxia placed two candies into each of the little hands and began to pry some information from the children.

She also figured out that these kids were no strangers, besides Brother Qin's son, the other two must also be from the Qin family proper.

Shortly thereafter, she got a rough idea from the three little talkers.

The older boy was named Qin Jianye, the son of Qin Yang's cousin; Brother Qin's son's full name was Qin Jianwei, nicknamed Zhuangzhuang; the little girl was called Niuniu, from Qin Yang's cousin's family.

Chuxia had known that Qin Family Village had many households with the surname Qin, but she hadn't expected that Qin Yang's own family was also a significant clan.

While they were talking, Lin Chuxia's stomach growled again, and several little radish heads, none of them very tall, heard it clearly.

Qin Jianye covered his mouth and snickered, Niuniu innocently asked Lin Chuxia, "Auntie, are you hungry? There's a feast outside, with lots of delicious food. I'll take you out to eat."

Lin Chuxia ruffled Niuniu's little blond hair, "Auntie is hungry, but I can't leave the house yet, it's okay, I will be able to eat soon."

Qin Jianye's eyes rolled, "I'll go get something for auntie to eat."

As soon as he finished speaking, a small figure dashed outside.

Zhuangzhuang ran out while saying, "She's my auntie, it's my house, I'll get it," and before Lin Chuxia could say anything, he was already out the door with Qin Jianye and Niuniu following close behind.

In no time, Zhuangzhuang came running back, directly handing Lin Chuxia a big steamed bun, "Auntie, eat this," and then bounced off again, apparently off to attend to something urgent.

Lin Chuxia held the warm big steamed bun, her eyes filled with tenderness as she watched the little kid's retreating figure.

In her past life, she was injured and spent her lifetime childless, thus Lin Chuxia always had a fondness for children, especially sensible and adorable little ones like this.

There was no one in the room, and Lin Chuxia didn't want to wrong herself, so she started nibbling on the steamed bun right away.

At this time, people were just able to eat their fill, and that didn't just mean being full on sorghum flour, corn flour, or white flour, having a large pure white-flour bun was already considered a good day.

That the Qin Family used white-flour buns to treat guests also showed how much they valued their youngest son's marriage.

Then she thought about that 300 yuan of betrothal money...

Although the money was in her hands, after all, it was given by the Qin Family, and it was also an unreasonable demand from her mother.

In their rural area, giving one hundred yuan as betrothal money was already quite a lot.

Sigh! She would compensate the Qin Family slowly in the future.

As she was thinking, the door was pushed open again. Lin Chuxia looked up with a smile, "You little..."

The words stuck in her throat; her large eyes blinked twice, gazing at the man before her.

Black trousers and white shirt, complemented by a coldly handsome face.

Thick eyebrows, deep eyes, a high-bridged nose, and even the thin lips had a beautiful curve.

Lin Chuxia had guessed that Qin Yang wasn't ugly, but she hadn't expected him to be so good-looking, righteously and handsomely good-looking.

Even the hand holding the bowl had distinct joints, each finger slender, quite a sight for sore eyes.

Thinking of the steamed bun she still had in her mouth, Lin Chuxia quickly chewed a few times and swallowed the bun in her mouth.

At this point, the man had already started speaking, placing the big bowl and chopsticks he held onto a table to the side, "Have some vegetables," and also set down the two buns he was pinching in his other hand.

Before Lin Chuxia could say thanks, he had already turned and was heading out.

His straight posture carried a keep-away coldness.

Lin Chuxia, who wanted to say thank you, tugged at the corner of her mouth; indeed, his reputation for being cold wasn't unfounded.

She thought that in her previous life, it was this very disposition that drove her elder sister mad, which is why she wanted to swap marriage prospects with her first thing after reincarnation.

Otherwise, not to mention anything else, just that face could be admired for a lifetime.

Without the awkwardness of being caught snacking, Lin Chuxia picked up the chopsticks and started eating her vegetables.

Outside the door, Qin Yang looked around at the bustling guests in the yard and let out a quiet sigh of relief, glancing sideways behind him.

Zhuangzhuang ran over to take credit, "Little uncle, did you bring little auntie some food? I already brought her a big bun; little auntie's stomach was grumbling with hunger just now."

Qin Yang raised his hand and ruffled his little head, a soft light flashed through his deep eyes, "Then I should thank Zhuangzhuang."

Receiving praise, Zhuangzhuang puffed out his small chest proudly, "It's what I should do; I like little auntie. She looks just as good as little uncle. Niuniu says little auntie looks like a fairy, eh, little uncle, why is your face red? Is it very hot?"

Qin Yang cleared his throat and casually unbuttoned the top button of his collar, "It's a bit hot today."

He also took off the big red flower on his chest and handed it to Zhuangzhuang, "Take it and go play."

With a big red flower in hand, Zhuangzhuang laughed and rushed off to show off to his pals.

Qin Yang watched his little figure with a trace of a soft arc on his lips, then looked back at the house behind him again.

Mom said that the girls from the Lin Family are not ugly, so when it came to swapping marriage prospects, he didn't make things difficult for the Lin Family. After all, a melon forced off its vine isn't sweet, it's better to accommodate the wishes of the Lin Family than to have someone marry in uncomfortably.

Mom was right; the girl from the Lin Family isn't ugly, she's very pretty, prettier than any of those colleagues' wives he knows.

He touched his ear, not that he hadn't been stared at by women before, but somehow, being stared at by this woman made him..., luckily he walked away quickly.
