章節 184: Chapter 184 She Wants to Stand by His Side, Not to Hold Him Back_1

As soon as they left the blacksmith's shop, An Jing asked, "Husband, spending over twelve taels today, does it hurt your heart?"

Xiao Changyi shook his head slightly.

"Why doesn't it hurt your heart?" An Jing continued knowingly.

"I know it's for me."

An Jing immediately laughed and pushed him, "Flatter yourself, I definitely didn't do it for you."

Xiao Changyi immediately said sternly, "Jing Er, no lying allowed." He paused, "You may deceive others, but you'd better not deceive me."

"Then you're not allowed to lie to me either!" An Jing bargained.

Xiao Changyi agreed without a second thought, "Mhm."

An Jing was satisfied and then spoke the truth with a smile, "Of course, it's for you. Threshing rice is so hard, this way you can relax a lot when the time comes."
