Listening to what he just said, Rose frowned and said, "Can you stop being so vexatious?"
"It's not fair! I'm not supposed to be treated like this as a husband while you are so nice to your old flame! I don't even have the right to fight for the benefits I deserve to own, do I?" Bright said reasonably.
In a word, he was jealous.
Rose wanted to ignore him and said, "Can you just finish the meal with grandpa? He will notice something wrong if you guys keep doing this."
"Sure, I can. But you can's just temporize this, Rose!" Bright brushed through her in a trot and said, "Let's talk about this after the meal!"
Rose sighed helplessly. Bright was like a rebellious child to her.
Bright went back to the house and held the cup again.
Rose gazed at him, who was drinking and talking with grandpa like nothing had happened.
Sky came back and sat down soon afterward, with sweat on her face.
Grandpa looked at the pale Sky and said worriedly, "Are you all right, Sky?"
"Don't worry grandpa, I'm fine," Sky said with a light smile, "But I'm afraid I can't drink with you now."
"He has drunk too much, " Bright said.
Grandpa replied, "Don't worry, I'm grateful for your attitude. Don't push yourself too hard."
Then, Bright and grandpa continued their drink. Rose was just having the meal silently and took a glance occasionally. And Sky, having no appetite for any dish on the table, took a few bites on the poached cabbage had some soup.
After the meal, both grandpa and Bright were drunk. Rose was busying in tidying up the table and Sky was helping her.
Bright was sitting in the yard and chatting with grandpa. Seeing Rose and Sky were so busy, he felt a little bit jealous.
Grandpa needed his company, but he stood up and left eventually.
He went into the kitchen, looked at Sky, and said, "Grandpa wants your accompany."
Sky raised his eyes and glanced at Bright casually.
"These chores should be left to me and Rose, for we are a couple and we work more efficiently," Bright said, "Or you just want to accompany with my wife instead of grandpa?"
Sky couldn't outargue him, and Rose also said, "Just go and stay with grandpa."
Sky nodded and left after cleaning his hands.
Bright leaned on the counter, watching Rose, and said, "Your words are louder than mine."
Rose didn't answer him and just kept washing dishes.
"Why don't you answer me?" Bright felt upset about her indifference.
"Don't you see I'm busying?" Rose lowered her eyelids.
"Your hands are busy, but your mouth is free," Bright frowned unpleasantly.
"Can you stop fussing around?" Rose felt helpless.
"I'm not fussing," Bright said seriously, "I'm asking you questions seriously and I hope you can answer me now."
"It's not the Q&A time," Rose placed the washed dishes into a basin of water and said, "Can you please let me do my job. The time is pretty late now and I need to coax Doris to sleep after this."
"If you are drunk, just take a rest. We can talk about this when you are sober, all right?"
