The saying "a long-awaited rain is a blessing" could probably apply to Qi Taiguo and Cheng Su as well.
After a night of passionate love, Cheng Su woke up with jelly legs and an endless spring in her eyes. Even looking at herself in the mirror made her blush.
The cake they brought back last night was still sitting on the table. As the weather was getting warmer and their home still lacked a fridge, it seemed they needed to buy one.
Like the cake that couldn’t be left out, Cheng Su cut it into several pieces and distributed them to her neighbors as usual.
Guiying, with her belly protruding, took a piece of cake from Cheng Su and silently stared at the spring in her eyes, her expression full of innuendo.
Chunhua was always straightforward. Seeing Cheng Su’s bashful and shy demeanor, she nudged her hand and said, "Looks like you had a lovely night yesterday!"
Cheng Su spat back playfully, "Mind your own business!"
Chunhua giggled, glanced at the anniversary chocolate plaque on the cake, and sighed, "It’s gone by so fast, yet not too fast, it’s been a year since you got married!"
"Yeah! Time really flies." Cheng Su sighed as well.
A year had passed, and so many things had happened, it felt like they all occurred just yesterday.
"The two of you dressed up so nicely yesterday, the whole courtyard was saying what a perfect match you are!" Chunhua said enviously, "You know how to keep the romance alive, not like us, we’re just an old married couple now."
Cheng Su didn’t intend to show off, so she laughed it off and continued sharing the cake with everyone.
After breakfast, Cheng Su kept a portion for Qi Taiguo and went to the supply and marketing cooperative herself.
She visited the cooperative managed by Luh Kai, and upon asking for him, Luh Kai emerged from his office.
"It’s rare to see you here," Luh Kai smiled and examined her. "You look much better."
Cheng Su touched her cheek and said, "I’ve come to ask for a favor. If you’re willing, I’d like to treat you to a meal to thank you for the tonics you sent me."
"Oh? What do you need help with?" Luh Kai gestured to the table for guests and invited her to sit down.
