Ruling the Historical Romance Novel as the Female Supporting Character-Chapter 234: His Wife Can Only Eat Lobster Peeled by Him

When she woke up again, it was completely dark outside. Qin Kaize was still holding her as he did before, his steady breathing indicating he was asleep too.

"Ze, Jiajia, are you awake?" Grandma Lin gently knocked on the door from outside.

"Yes," Qin Kaize replied lazily, his eyes opening at some point.

Su Yijia hurriedly pushed him away and stood up. Qin Kaize shifted his legs, feeling a tingling sensation from being pressed, which made him grunt.

"Serve you right for being so careless," Su Yijia teased triumphantly.

"It’s okay. Being able to hug my wife is worth a little discomfort," Qin Kaize said shamelessly.

Su Yijia couldn’t help but roll her eyes, unable to suppress a smile.

After tidying up their clothes, she pushed the wheelchair out of the room. There were many dishes laid out on the table outside, even more than before, obviously to celebrate Qin Kaize’s full recovery. And to allow him to eat more, the dishes were intentionally made lighter.

Xia Weiguo looked at Qin Kaize’s completely normal complexion with satisfaction and nodded approvingly. Finally, he couldn’t help but warn, "Alright, you kid, you better treat Jiajia well in the future. Don’t bully her, or else don’t blame me for beating you up."

Qin Kaize raised his eyebrows lazily and replied, "Jiajia is my wife. If I don’t treat her well, who else will I treat well?"

Only men without ability would bully their wives. Otherwise, with so many people outside, why wouldn’t they bully others?

Xia Weiguo was amused by his retort. "Alright, as long as you know how to treat your wife well."

Qin Kaize picked up a lobster with chopsticks and put it into Su Yijia’s bowl. "Baby, you eat first."

This lobster was sent by the village children in the afternoon. It was obvious that the elders in the family wanted to use this method to ease the relationship.

Gao Huabin accepted it, but also exchanged it with eggs according to the price set by Su Yijia earlier.

Seeing Su Yijia put down her chopsticks and wanting to peel the lobster with her hands, Qin Kaize took the lobster over, quickly peeled it, and put it back in her bowl. Then he naturally picked up another one.

Although it’s said that a good husband should learn to peel lobster for his wife, Su Yijia always felt it was a bit pretentious. Wouldn’t the lobster taste better if she peeled it herself?

But now, without her saying anything, Qin Kaize did it so naturally.

That inexplicable emotion made her feel warm inside. But with so many elders around, Su Yijia felt a little embarrassed and pushed him away slightly.

"Never mind me, eat by yourself."

"Jiajia, you eat first. He can eat later if he’s hungry," Xia Weiguo said with a satisfied smile.

Originally, he thought this brat wouldn’t treat his wife well, but now it seemed that he was worrying for nothing. Ze used to be chased by the girls from the cultural troupe and the military hospital, but he never showed any affection and even made some of them cry. In the end, it was because he didn’t like them. But now, he was so protective.

"You should eat more! Look how thin you are. You could blow away with a gust of wind. Uncle Xia is stationed on the island. When a typhoon comes, even the trees can be blown away. You have to be careful," Qin Kaize peeled two more lobster and put them in her bowl.

Typhoons are more frequent in summer, usually occurring from May to September, especially from July to September.

They happened to arrive during this time.

"Can we go clam digging?" Su Yijia asked excitedly.

When she was exhausted, she liked to watch clam digging videos, which was a great stress reliever. But things got too busy later on, and she didn’t have a chance to play before they came here. With Uncle Xia here now, surely no one would dare to make her unhappy?

"We can! After the typhoon passes, there will be clams, oysters, moon shells, conchs washed ashore, as well as mantis shrimp and sand shrimp. If you like, I’ll accompany you to pick them up," Qin Kaize said, listing a long list of seafood.

Listening to this made Su Yijia’s mouth water, and even the small lobsters in her bowl didn’t seem appetizing anymore.

Xia Weiguo looked at him, indicating that he should be more restrained.

Even such a small amount of scheming couldn’t be hidden.

But Qin Kaize continued to peel shrimp for Su Yijia while saying leisurely, "The old fishermen on the island are all experts in seafood. After clam digging, we’ll ask the old fishermen to cook for us. If you like, we can also take a small boat out to sea, cast nets, and catch the freshest seafood. We can cook it on a small stove at the bow of the boat."

"Is this okay?" Su Yijia swallowed nervously and asked.

"Sister-in-law, rest assured, other Aunties in the team often do this. They use tickets to exchange. The fishermen on the island don’t usually have tickets, so this method is the only way to get something in exchange. No one will say anything," Gao Huabin hurriedly explained.

"Hmph, you talk too much with your mouth full," Qin Kaize said with a hint of disdain, glaring at him.

Gao Huabin grinned foolishly, unable to help himself. He had been away from the team for two years and missed the taste of seafood.

Unfortunately, he couldn’t follow them this time.

"When Kaize and I come back, we’ll bring you some," Su Yijia offered, knowing he wanted to eat.

Gao Huabin’s eyes lit up, completely ignoring the gaze of his eldest brother, who was about to glare at him.

"Thank you, sister-in-law! Sister-in-law is so kind!"

"Could my wife be anything less?" Qin Kaize glared at him again, quickly serving Su Yijia a bowl of chicken soup. "Wife, have some soup, don’t just eat. That kid has friends in the team, so if he wants to eat, he can have his friends send it."

"Elder brother..." Gao Huabin felt a little heartbroken.

His eldest brother knew very well that the seafood sent back was dried. If he wanted to eat fresh seafood, he would have to trouble someone to put ice in the box and bring it back within a day or two, wrapped in a quilt.

He had a small appetite, so Su Yijia didn’t need to bring back much.

"I’ll go find the truck driver and bring you a few boxes. Your sister-in-law doesn’t have time for these things," Qin Kaize said firmly, not allowing any refusal.

His wife only needed to remember him, not to worry about these trivial matters.

"Elder brother is so kind! When I go back, I’ll invite all my teammates in Hu City. It’s been a long time since we’ve had this kind of food, and they must be eager," Gao Huabin immediately fawned.

"Okay, when you go back, take good care of Zirui and keep an eye out for anything." Qin Kaize instructed.

Gao Huabin immediately nodded seriously. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

This time, he went back to Hu City with a mission entrusted by his eldest brother. He had to keep an eye on Yin Linzheng to ensure he didn’t cause any more trouble. He also had to see how to reclaim the old Lin family mansion. Most importantly, he had to keep an eye on Su Xinyue to ensure she didn’t leave Hu City.

As soon as Su Yijia was fed, Qin Kaize casually ate two bowls of rice. He had originally planned to take his little wife out for a walk while it was still early, but all the Aunties from the village had crowded into the Educated Youth Center.
