Sweet Little Wife of the '60s.

Summary

The chapter takes place in Nanping City, the bustling provincial capital of G Province, where Shen Jiao reminisces about her past visits with her grandfather, who owned many businesses there. The city is lively, filled with foreigners and exotic trinkets. Shen Jiao feels the heat of Nanping, contrasting it with Dongping, and expresses a desire for ice cream, which Han Qi Xiu denies due to a previous incident where she got a stomach ache. Despite her pouty demeanor, she understands his concern but still wants to act spoiled. Han Qi Xiu remains firm, even scolding Han De Fu for eating ice cream in front of Shen Jiao. After a long day, they arrive at Han Qi Xiu's garden-style villa, where Shen Jiao quickly falls asleep. The next morning, she wakes refreshed and dresses in a light green outfit chosen by Han Qi Xiu, who insists she should keep her feet protected from the heat. As Han Qi Xiu styles her hair and prepares her for the day, he admires her delicate appearance. Meanwhile, Han Qing Ye practices his punches in the courtyard, feeling neglected by Han Qi Xiu's focus on Shen Jiao. He reflects on Shen Jiao's resilience and suitability for Han Qi Xiu, despite concerns about her family's capitalist background. The chapter concludes with family members discussing Shen Jiao's beauty and the importance of inner qualities over outward appearances as Han Qi Xiu arrives with bags, accompanied by the lovely Shen Jiao.
