53 Mopping

Even though Qing Shan was asking with a subtle smile on his face, but Zhi ruo knew she was in for a trouble.....Trying to explein her actions, she informed Qing Shan:

"The bottle says eight cups....You look.....So ....I added eight cups"

Looking at the mess in the kitchen again Qing Shan knew things were not as simple as it seems or surely not simple as his wife said, now only last question thet was the most dreadful, he still gathered his courage and asked

"Wifeyyy, which bowl did you use?"

Zhi ruo innocently loked around the kitchen, picked up a spare bowl and proudly showed Qing Shan the bowl..

Startled, Qing Shan started laughing like a maniac.....

"hehe, haha..... So Miss Zhi ruo you are saying thet you used this (Pointing towards the bowl which Zhi ruo was holding proudly) bowl. This, rice bowl??...

Eight bowls, (thinking for some time) one bowl is 500ml atleast.....

(Looking at Zhi ruo with wide eyes) you added eight bowls, 4 litres of soap solution for just washing 7-8 dishes?"

Keeping the bowl back at its place Zhi ruo came closer to Qing Shan and proudly answered...

"Yes, thats what it says on the label, eight bowls.... What happened,...

Is the dish washer broken?"

'Even if it isnt broken you can surely break it' murmured Qing Shan.

Nodding to Zhi ruo's question both of them started cleaning up the mess....

After finishing up picking the scraps, Zhi Ruo took the mop and just startted mopping when she slipped and fell backward.....

Getting ready to fall down, she closed her eyes but unexpectedly she fell down on something curvy, and little soft as well. Opening her eyes she say that while she fell her husband caught her. Felling happy for not falling down she stood up and thanked him smilingly.

On the other hand Qing Shan had his closest eye on Zhi ruo this time. He can't bear to handle another mistake now... After collecting the scraps and putting them into dustbin he saw Zhi ruo grabbing a mop. Just as he was about to take it from her hand she startted mopping and slipped on the watery floor. Because he was close to her she fell down on his body instead of floor....but were things so simple.....

No....

Unable to control her body while falling she swung the mop and this time the handle of the mop was directly inserted into Qing Shan's left mid-thigh. Just a little bit higher it would have been, he would had to go to the hospital. Conttrolling his pail he quickly snatched the mop from her hands and asked her to get a dry rag.

While Zhi ruo was insisting to mop the floor Qing shan told her that he cannot afford to hurt her, and if she works more they would surely have to go to the hospital.....So she should just get the dry rags....

Qing Shan had such a pitiful face that that Zhi ruo decided to obey him.

Soon the mess in the kitchen was cleaned up and both went to the bedroom and dropped their tired bodies on the either side of bed.
