"Oh? Madam, are you sure?"
Seeing the pretending to be unhappy on his wife's face, Liu Zhi'an smiled and asked softly.
After Mrs. Liu heard Liu Zhi'an's seemingly profound rhetorical question, the expression on her face was slightly startled at first, and then she immediately came to her senses.
"Old man, what do you mean by this?"
Liu Zhi'an chuckled a few times with a strange look on his face, then tapped the armrest of the rocking chair with his fingers.
"Haha, hahaha, it doesn't make any sense.
I just want to ask you, madam, are you sure that our eldest grandson must be guarding the border of our Dalong now?"
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Liu looked at the slightly strange look on Liu Zhi'an's face, her red lips pursed slightly and she frowned slightly.
When her master asked this question, she originally thought that the answer would be yes.
However, when she saw Liu Zhian's strange expression, she couldn't help but hesitate.
After Mrs. Liu pursed her lips and remained silent for a while, she glanced at Liu Zhi'an with doubt in her eyes.
"Old man, before Zhi'er left our Dalong to go to the Western Regions to visit his bride, he personally ordered Chengfeng to go and guard the border of our Dalong.
His father personally gave him an order. That kid Chengfeng shouldn't dare to disobey it, right?
If this is the case, what if our eldest grandson is not guarding the border now? Then where else can he be?"
Liu Zhi'an listened to his wife's obviously uncertain tone when she said the last two sentences, and immediately picked up the wine glass with a smile and gestured.
"Madam, come, let's have another drink."
Mrs. Liu nodded lightly, picked up the wine glass and responded to Liu Zhi'an.
"Hey, cheers."
"call."
Liu Zhi'an took a breath of alcohol, put down the toast in his hand with a faint smile, and wiped the wine from the corner of his mouth twice with his fingers.
"Where's the madam?"
Mrs. Liu raised her eyes and glanced at Liu Zhi'an, then picked up the jug and filled a glass of wine for both of them.
"Well, I'm listening, please tell me."
After Liu Zhi'anle chuckled softly a few times, he turned slightly sideways and propped his arms on the pillow behind him.
"Madam, to be honest, I don't know where Chengfeng's child is now.
However, I can tell you, that kid Chengfeng is most likely not guarding the border right now!"
After Mrs. Liu casually put down the wine bottle in her hand, she picked up a few peanuts from the plate with her fingers, then slightly stretched her waist and brought them to Liu Zhi'an's mouth.
"Hey, open your mouth."
Seeing this, Liu Zhi'an quickly raised his head and opened his mouth to take it.
"Hehe, hehehe, madam, you are still as gentle and considerate to me as ever!
If it weren't for our husband and wife, we would be old now and no longer young.
Otherwise, I have to carry you, madam, back to your room immediately and give birth to a younger brother or younger sister to our eldest brother, Mingli, Xuan'er, and Mingjie.
It's a pity that time is not forgiving, we are all old!
What a pity, what a pity!”
Listening to Liu Zhi'an's inappropriate words of emotion, Mrs. Liu immediately gave Liu Zhi'an a big white eye with an angry look in her eyes.
"De Xing, you are an old and crooked thing. You only know how to talk nonsense. Eat what you have!"
After Liu Zhi'an swallowed the peanuts in his mouth, he looked at Mrs. Liu with a raised brow and continued to chuckle happily.
"Hey hey hey, madam, my good madam!
Old man, where am I talking nonsense? What I just said are all my words from the bottom of my heart, okay?
If the two of us are really young now, I will definitely give Mingli, Xuaner and the others a younger brother or sister."
As soon as Liu Zhi'an's laughing words fell, Mrs. Liu suddenly sneered twice with strange eyes.
"Hehe, hehehe.
Old and no longer young?”
Seeing his wife's unexpected reaction, Liu Zhi'an, although he didn't understand what was going on, nodded instinctively.
"Yeah, that's right, I'm already old and no longer young!"
Listening to Liu Zhi'an's answer, Mrs. Liu stared at Liu Zhi'an playfully for a while, then suddenly she raised her eyebrows and smiled sweetly.
Immediately, she slowly straightened her still slender waist, picked up a peanut from the plate with her fingers, put it between her teeth, and then bit it down hard.
There was a soft crunching sound, and the peanuts broke into two pieces.
Seeing his wife behaving like this, although Liu Zhi'an didn't quite understand what was going on, he still couldn't help but his body trembled.
At the same time, he swallowed twice involuntarily.
"Gudu!"
"Gudu~"
"Madam, what are you doing? Are you okay?"
Mrs. Liu glanced at Liu Zhi'an with a faint look, reached out to pick up the wine glass and brought it to her mouth. After drinking all the wine in the glass, she pinched the wine glass between her fingers and gently turned it with a half-smile.
"Old? No longer young?"
"Madam, me! Me!"
"Liu Zhian."
"Hey, hey, madam, say it, madam, say it."
"Old man, you said you are old?"
"Oh, ma'am, I've already passed my sixtieth birthday. Isn't this still old?"
"Hehe, hehehe."
Madam Liu suddenly sneered softly again, and then slowly placed the wine glass between her fingers on the low table beside her.
"You are already old after your sixtieth birthday, I don't think so, right?"
Listening to his wife's sinister tone, Liu Zhi'an gently tapped the base of his ear twice with a confused look.
At this moment, Liu Zhi'an's heart was filled with as many doubts as he wanted, and as many puzzles as he wanted.
Isn’t there anything inappropriate about the teasing remarks between old couples that I just mentioned?
It's so good, why did my wife suddenly become like this?
Could it be that she was a little unhappy because she just said that Madam was old?
This is not the case!
You know, it's not like I haven't said such words to my wife before.
In the past, when Madam heard me say these things, not only would she not be unhappy, but she would sigh with me in a sad expression.
Why did Madam suddenly change her tone of voice when she said these words today?
Just as Liu Zhi'an was thinking to himself in confusion, Mrs. Liu suddenly opened her mouth and shouted softly.
"Old man, why are you so stunned? Just keep talking!"
Hearing the sound, Liu Zhi'an suddenly came to his senses from his silence, and quickly looked towards Madam Liu with an apologetic smile.
"Madam, what did you ask me to say?
If you are not old after your sixtieth birthday, then what is old?"
Listening to Liu Zhi'an's rhetorical question, Mrs. Liu smiled with a playful look in her eyes, picked up a peanut with her fingers and popped it directly into her mouth.
"Old man, he has passed his sixtieth birthday. People are indeed old.
It’s just that this person is old, but his heart may not be old as well.”
