Doctor and His Glamorous Sister-in-Law-Chapter 530 - 533: Buy a Washing Machine

Hearing Zhu Qiushui say this, Liu Ergou raised his eyebrows. But before he could say anything, Zhu Qiushui had already stood up from the sofa and crouched down in front of him. As Liu Ergou watched in surprise, she unzipped his pants.

「Half an hour later.」

Zhu Qiushui covered her mouth as she fled from the living room. It was only then that Liu Ergou managed to come back to his senses. Now fully lucid, Liu Ergou wanted to say something, but after a moment's thought, he decided against it, simply sitting on the sofa to wait quietly.

Soon, Zhu Qiushui returned to the living room. The two chatted for a few more moments before Liu Ergou took his leave.

As she watched Liu Ergou's receding figure, Zhu Qiushui couldn't help but clench her small fists. She murmured to herself, "He's the first man to ever treat me so well! I've set my heart on him for life!"

However, the departing Liu Ergou was completely unaware of the declaration Zhu Qiushui had made after he was gone.

Walking down the street, Liu Ergou couldn't help but raise a hand and slap himself on the cheek. He then grumbled in annoyance, "Damn it! I bought a car, so why did I take a taxi? I can't believe my own memory!"

Indeed, when Liu Ergou had gone to see Mi Xiaoying yesterday, he had completely forgotten he owned a car and took a taxi straight there. Just now, after leaving Zhu Qiushui's house and seeing other people's cars, he suddenly remembered he had one of his own. That was what prompted his outburst.

Having realized his mistake, Liu Ergou hurriedly hailed a taxi, returned to where his car was parked, and got in, preparing to drive to find Mi Xiaoying and help her pick out more raw stones.

But just as he was about to start the car, his phone suddenly rang.

He picked it up and saw that the caller was Liu Yunxi. Without a moment's hesitation, Liu Ergou answered. As soon as the call connected, Liu Yunxi's voice came through.

"Er Gou, where are you?"

"I'm in the city. What's up, Yun Xi?" Liu Ergou replied.

Learning he was in the city, Liu Yunxi didn't beat around the bush. "Something has happened in the village, and we need you to come back as soon as possible. Don't ask what it is now. We'll talk when you get here!"

Hearing the urgency in her voice, Liu Ergou knew the matter might be serious. He immediately drove to a gas station and filled the tank. Then he floored the accelerator and sped toward Fengzhu Village.

A few hours later, Liu Ergou arrived at the entrance of Fengzhu Village. He could clearly see a group of people sitting under the large tree by the entrance, chatting away. Liu Ergou had wanted to be discreet and park outside the village, but before he could stop, the people chatting at the entrance spotted the approaching car.

Immediately, a busybody ran toward the vehicle. When he saw that the person inside was Liu Ergou, a stunned expression appeared on his face.

"Er Gou, is that you?" the man exclaimed in amazement. "This is your car!?"

Liu Ergou nodded. "Yes, I bought it. I…"

Before he could finish, the man had already dashed back toward the village entrance, shouting at the top of his lungs, "Everyone, come quick! Er Gou from the Liu family bought a new car! Hurry up and come look!"

Hearing the man's shouts, Liu Ergou was utterly exasperated. Buying a car was a good thing, but the way this man announced it made it sound like he had committed some terrible crime. In any case, his plan to park outside the village was now impossible. Liu Ergou had no choice but to drive up to the entrance.

As soon as he arrived, he saw a crowd of people pointing at his car, chattering excitedly.

"Wow, Er Gou has really made something of himself! To be able to afford such a big car, it must have been so expensive!"

"Yeah, a car this big must cost a fortune. It's the very first car in our village!"

"Exactly! I can't believe the kid was only gone for a couple of days and came back able to afford a car!"

Listening to the discussion, Liu Ergou remained unflustered. He calmly drove the car back to his home.

When he pulled up to his courtyard gate, he honked the horn, signaling for someone to open it. However, instead of the gate opening, he was greeted by a scolding voice.

"Who is that? So inconsiderate! Honking your horn right at someone's gate is so annoying! Don't you know making a racket is a public nuisance?"

As the words were spoken, the gate opened, and Liu Yunxi's figure appeared in his view. The moment he saw her, Liu Ergou called out, "Yun Xi! It's me!"

Hearing his voice, Liu Yunxi froze for a second, then looked up in surprise at the person speaking.

"What? It's you, Er Gou!" Liu Yunxi exclaimed. "We've only been apart for a few days, and you're already driving a Land Rover! Where did you strike it rich?"

Seeing her astonished expression, Liu Ergou laughed heartily and got out of the car. He swept Liu Yunxi into his arms and started walking toward the courtyard.

But as soon as they stepped inside, they saw Xu Yulan washing clothes. The two of them froze on the spot, suddenly at a loss for what to do.

When Xu Yulan saw how intimate Liu Ergou and Liu Yunxi were, a flicker of disappointment and sadness flashed in her eyes, so fleeting that no one noticed.

"Er Gou, you're back!" Xu Yulan greeted him with a smile.

Liu Ergou nodded vigorously. "Yeah, Sister-in-law, I'm back!"

With that, he quickly strode forward and took the clothes from Xu Yulan's hands. "Sister-in-law, why are you always busy every time I see you? The work in the fields is done, and now you're washing clothes. Can't you take a proper rest? What would I do if you wore yourself out!"

Hearing his words, Xu Yulan's face instantly flushed crimson. She knew exactly what he meant.

"Er Gou, what nonsense are you spouting?" she said with a bashful expression. "It's just washing some clothes. How could that possibly wear me out?"

Seeing her like this, Liu Ergou felt a tickle in his heart. If Liu Yunxi hadn't been there, he would have pulled Xu Yulan into a fierce embrace. Glancing at Liu Yunxi beside him, he suppressed the urge and said, "Of course it can! Sister-in-law, just you wait. In a couple of days, I'll buy you a washing machine! Then you won't have to wash by hand anymore!"
