Chapter 153 Why should we reason with women?
However, Jinyang, Yunche, Xu Wu and the others were also in the military camp. Since Ye Ze had nothing to talk to him about alone, why did he invite him to drink? Mu Xingchen looked at Ye Ze in confusion and quickly put some food into his mouth.
"I just want to talk to you alone, don't think too much, let's drink. We haven't had a good drink together yet, let's go!"
Mu Xingchen: “…”
Seeing Mu Xingchen drink it, Ye Ze hurriedly said, "Eat, eat. It would be a waste if you don't eat so much. I didn't expect you to be Li'er's biological brother. That means you are my biological elder brother. Your brother-in-law will toast to you again."
This time Mu Xingchen didn't raise his glass. "Just say whatever you want to say. If you don't say it, I'll be worried. Do we brothers still need to use tricks to get words out of each other?"
Ye Ze scratched his head awkwardly, "How should I put it? Brother, let me tell you a story."
Mu Xingchen nodded.
Ye Ze thought for a moment and said, "Once upon a time, there was a minor official named Chen San. He married Wang and they had two sons and one daughter. Although the Chen family was not wealthy, Chen San and his wife were not ignorant. They loved all three children equally. Their daughter was also raised in the palm of their hands by the old couple. She was their precious child."
Mu Xingchen listened to Ye Ze's story and nodded occasionally in response, "That's great, then what?"
"Then, alas! It is said that girls cannot be kept at home when they grow up. Miss Chen happened to fall in love with the son of a general who was not favored by the emperor and was about to be confiscated and exiled. The reputation of this general's son is so bad that he is neither good at literature nor martial arts. In the eyes of outsiders, he is a waste! But Miss Chen is blind and will not marry anyone but you! The Chen family's parents love their daughter so much that they had to agree to her marriage. Poor Miss Chen, who was raised since she was a child, not only has to take care of her sick mother-in-law and handle all the trivial matters at home when she arrives at her husband's house, but she also cannot be loved by her husband. It's really sad."
After hearing this, what else did Mu Xingchen not understand? Without Ye Ze's persuasion, he directly picked up the wine glass in front of him and drank it all in one gulp. His face was ashen and he didn't speak for a long time. Then he poured himself one glass after another and drank.
After Mu Xingchen drank a few glasses of wine, Ye Ze quickly reached out to stop him, "Brother, eat the food. If you don't, I can't finish it by myself. It's a shameful waste! Eat the food quickly..." Ye Ze snatched the wine pot from his hand and stuffed his chopsticks into his hand.
"Did my mother ask you to be a lobbyist?" Mu Xingchen asked, his eyes a little red due to drinking.
"No." Ye Ze answered firmly. It was indeed not Madam Mu who asked him to come to persuade, but General Mu!
"Alas," Mu Xingchen sighed helplessly, and said, "You'd better stop trying to persuade me. You don't understand my affairs at all. You don't understand Chu, and you don't know how difficult she is. She is not as gentle as she looks on the surface."
Ye Ze looked at Mu Xingchen with disdain: "Haha, I don't understand my sister-in-law, but I understand women."
Mu Xingchen looked up in surprise: "Huh? You understand women?" Do you understand women just because you want to? They are unreasonable, okay? Especially married women, they are just like shrews!
"Yeah." Ye Ze nodded seriously.
Mu Xingchen: "Okay, then tell me, why does Chu always make trouble with me?"
Ye Ze: "Then why do you want to reason with a woman?"
Mu Xingchen: (☉_☉) If it’s not reasonable, then what else can I talk about?
"Oh, the reason why my sister-in-law is being unreasonable is because you have never given her the promise she wanted. She feels insecure and is therefore imagining things."
Mu Xingchen was completely speechless after hearing Ye Ze's words. So it was all his fault?
Ye Ze continued, "Love is mutual. You don't think your sister-in-law married you for something, do you? To put it bluntly, what is there about you that she wants? Isn't it because she likes you? The colder you are to her, the more she will think about it. You turned her into a suspicious shrew, and now she feels wronged?"
"It's like a house. If you don't repair and maintain it on time, do you think the house can always stay clean and tidy? The relationship between husband and wife also needs to be maintained. If you don't want to pay but only want to enjoy, there is no such good thing in the world!"
Mu Xingchen: "I didn't know her at first. I didn't even know what she looked like before I lifted her veil."
"Are you still being stubborn? On the other hand, hasn't your sister-in-law ever met you? Isn't she supposed to serve her mother-in-law every day, manage all the big and small things at home, and let you, her husband, have no worries? When have you ever really understood her wishes? What have you done for her?"
Mu Xingchen: “…”
"Ahem, well, why don't you do as I say and have a heart-to-heart talk with your sister-in-law. Maybe she is the one destined for you?" Ye Ze didn't want to say anything too serious, so he stopped at the right point. If he said too much, Mu Xingchen would be disgusted.
As for whether he would do it... Ye Ze couldn't force him to talk to Chu! Anyway, if persuading him once doesn't work, there will be next time. Of course, the premise is that Chu is worthy of his help. Judging from the attitudes of Mu Heng and Shen, they are on the side of Chu.
After the meal, the two returned to the barracks and went about their own business.
In the evening, Mu Xingchen still didn't go back. He hadn't figured out how to face Chu, and he was afraid that the two would start arguing before they could finish their sentences. When he thought about talking to Chu alone, Mu Xingchen got a headache for no reason.
Ye Ze didn't care about him. Anyway, Ye Ze went home on time every day to report to his wife. Today, when he came back from the military camp, he didn't even enter the house and went straight to the Mu family.
When Shen saw him coming, she was a little surprised. Didn't they agree to let Li'er stay here for a few more days?
"You're back." Zhao Li naturally poured him a cup of tea and placed it on the table, "Hurry up and sit down and rest for a while."
"Well, I just got home and came to see you guys." Ye Ze sat down calmly.
Seeing that Ye Ze had no intention of taking Zhao Li home, Shen smiled and greeted him, "Stay for dinner later."
Ye Ze: "Okay, thank you, mom."
Shen smiled gently, "Why bother saying thank you or not? We are all family."
"Yes, we are a family. I won't be polite to you from now on." Ye Ze smiled and raised his eyebrows at Zhao Li.
Zhao Li understood what he meant. He was asking her if she missed him.
Zhao Li lowered her head shyly and didn't look at him, so as not to embarrass herself in front of her mother.
Noticing the couple's private actions, the smile on Shen's face became even more relieved.
At the dinner table, Ye Ze couldn't help but pay more attention to Chu. Chu had a pretty face. Although she was not a stunning beauty, she was very attractive and spoke softly. It was really hard for Ye Ze to imagine what she looked like when she was throwing a tantrum.
"What are you looking at?" Zhao Li gently touched Ye Ze's arm with her elbow and asked in a low voice.
Ye Ze smiled, picked up some food for Zhao Li, and whispered, "I'll tell you later."
Zhao Li nodded slightly, and when she met Shen's gaze, her face blushed again.
Shen smiled, pretending not to notice the two people's little actions, and continued to eat with her head down. With Zhao Li by her side, Shen's appetite increased.
