Li Xiuying, who was below the slope, witnessed this scene.

She had just straightened her clothes and was covering the area on her shoulder that had been torn by the dog's claws when she looked up and saw Ye Yun feeding the dog chicken necks.

She rolled her eyes in anger.

That little slut! Her mother-in-law has never eaten a single piece of meat from her, yet she's feeding meat to a dog!

Oh, by the way, she fed dumplings to the dog last time.

Li Xiuying grew angrier the more she thought about it, but none of the people eating in the courtyard even glanced at her.

"Gurgle..."

Li Xiuying's stomach growled with hunger. Looking at the family of five eating dinner in the yard, she felt even hungrier and smacked her lips with craving.

She could have easily gone to the Guo family.

Qin Zheng vented her anger today by giving the Guo family a severe beating, so the Guo family dared not refuse to take her in.

But she didn't want to.

She just wanted to eat the Qin family's food.

She was allowed to go in, but she didn't dare.

Are you just going to leave like this?

She was unwilling to give up.

Li Xiuying stood at the bottom of the slope, gazing at the family eating in the courtyard, thinking to herself, "I'll stay here tonight and see when they remember me!"

She stands where she wants.

Qin Zheng and Ye Yun ate quietly, not even glancing at her again. It was truly not worth wasting time on someone like that.

It's already autumn, and it gets dark quickly.

Before long, the gray sky after the sunset was completely swallowed by darkness, and the temperature dropped, the chill making people shiver and get goosebumps.

The fourth brother poured the leftover rice into the coal ball, and after washing the dishes, he took his quilt and went into Qin Xiang'e's room.

After Qin Zheng and Ye Yun returned, he could no longer sleep on his brother and sister-in-law's kang (heated brick bed). So Qin Xiang'e used several large benches to build a simple bed in her and the old lady's room, laid out a quilt, and let him share a room with his mother and grandmother.

Even the coal balls obediently returned to their nests after finishing their leftovers.

"Even dogs know to go back to their beds to sleep."

Ye Yun sat on the kang (a heated brick bed), and through the window, she saw Li Xiuying still sitting on the big rock below their slope.

That big rock is fine during the day.

At night, it gets so cold that it can make your bottom numb.

Click, Qin Zheng turned off the light.

Even so, the view inside the room was clear. The Mid-Autumn Festival moon was exceptionally bright, shining into the room through the window, and Ye Yun could even see the outline of Qin Zheng's face.

Qin Zheng got onto the kang (a heated brick bed), and with his large hand on her waist, he tucked her into the quilt.

Ye Yun chuckled, "Why the rush?"

Why are you looking at her?

Qin Zheng was dissatisfied and gradually increased the strength of his embrace, burying his head in the crook of her neck, his high nose rubbing against her neck, his warm and heavy breath spraying behind her ear.

His breath was hot and dry, tickling her earlobe and making her involuntarily shrink back.

Every night when it was time to go to sleep, he would always be unable to control his emotions when he held her in his arms.

However, given her physical condition, even though occasional sexual activity is allowed during the three-month period, it cannot withstand frequent intercourse.

He was already in a lot of pain, but he still had to tease her.

Ye Yun couldn't help but glance out the window again.

"Stop looking, they left when the lights were turned off." Qin Zheng turned her face back, forcing her to look at him.

Ye Yun blinked. "How did you know?"

“I can hear you.”

Qin Zheng said calmly.

That means he really does have amazing hearing.

If he hadn't explained it that way, Ye Yun would have thought he actually cared about Li Xiuying.

"Never mind her, honey, look at me." Qin Zheng cupped her small face in his large hand, his palm soft and smooth against her cheek.

So tender.

Unlike his thick-skinned face, the little woman in his arms had a soft and bouncy face. He didn't dare to touch her too hard, for fear that the calluses on his hands would scratch her skin.

Qin Zheng couldn't resist and gently kissed Ye Yun's cheek.

He's a bit enthusiastic today.

Logically speaking, after a day of traveling and being busy, one should be tired.

Ye Yun tapped her hands lightly on the man's shoulders, speaking meaningfully, "Qin Zheng, are you troubled by something today?"

Qin Zheng was slightly taken aback.

Even the hands that were resting on her lower back paused, waiting quietly for Ye Yun to say something next.

Ye Yun chuckled, "Tell the truth."

Qin Zheng's lips twitched, and he stubbornly said, "I don't have anything on my mind. My only concern is why the baby in your belly hasn't come out yet?"

Why the rush?

"You don't know?" Qin Zheng retorted quickly, his gaze fixed intently on her.

Teng... Ye Yun blushed.

She was originally teasing Qin Zheng, but suddenly it turned into Qin Zheng teasing her.

Look, this person has actually learned how to fight back.

"Alright, stop wasting your energy on your mother's affairs. She brought this on herself. She didn't care about you before and even exploited you. Now she knows to come to you, treating you like a sucker?"

Ye Yun stopped playing riddles with him and said directly, "Qin Zheng, don't be soft-hearted."

Qin Zheng suddenly smiled.

"Wife, do I look like someone who is blindly obedient to his parents?"

Under the moonlight, he looked at Ye Yun with a slight smile in his eyes, and the sincerity in his eyes was enough to show that he was telling the truth.

Ye Yun tilted her head. "Then what kind of comfort are you looking for from me?"

As soon as he got on the kang (heated brick bed), he snuggled into her arms. What else could it be but seeking comfort?

It seems that Li Xiuying's appearance has stirred him up again, making him flustered and unsure of what to do. He wanted to hide in her arms.

Qin Zheng, his thoughts exposed, glanced at her for two seconds, then buried his face in her neck again, his voice muffled: "Wife, you're too perceptive. Can you not be so clever sometimes?"
