"Mom, aren't you being too biased toward Eldest Brother? Dividing the family property now, he benefits the most.

Chapter 1094 is better than anything else
Although Song Chunxue felt that returning to the feeling of being young and innocent was great, as if she had returned to the stage when they first met.
But seeing how clearly Xie Zheng distanced himself from her, Song Chunxue was still sad.
She didn't actually have that much courage to keep trying to climb higher.
She used to be a very proud person.
Otherwise, even if she were to live a second life, she wouldn't be so petty with her own children.
She rarely does anything proactively for others, and even with her children now, she holds back.
She gripped Xie Zheng's hand firmly, as if she were determined to abandon him if he dared to refuse.
"You're talking, did you hear me?"
Song Chunxue pinched his cheek. "When that Qingyun Daoist looked at you just now, I knew that she still thought you were as charming as ever, even more so than when you were in your prime, and harder to let go of than before."
Her tone was disappointed, tinged with a hint of grievance, "Lord Xie, you make me feel somewhat ashamed."
Xie Zheng was still in shock and embarrassment at sharing a blanket with her at night when he heard this. He slowly stretched out his arms and gently grabbed her shoulders.
"Of course I'd love to, I couldn't ask for more." He coughed lightly, suppressing the turmoil in his heart.
"How could I feel ashamed? You are much more beautiful than when I first met you. Your hair is shinier, your complexion is better, and you have a dignified and heroic air about you. You are very good. You are the one I have my eye on. I just forgot about you for the time being. It's not like I'm blind."
He was somewhat anxious and eager for her to understand his feelings.
Zhao Congxue pushed him, "Don't talk nonsense. Don't you know that some words become law? Have you been cultivating for nothing?"
He didn't dodge, but smiled gently, "It was my slip of the tongue, please don't take offense. If a man suddenly appeared one day and insisted on getting entangled with you, I'm afraid I wouldn't be as calm as you are."
"Then what would you do?" Song Chunxue noticed that his hand was slowly stopping trembling. "Fight him?"
"It should be more than that."
"Oh?" Song Chunxue asked curiously, reaching out to grab his long hair. "How do you take care of your hair? Why is it that even when I follow your method, it's still not as smooth and shiny as yours?"
Although her hair was already better than it had been in her previous life.
“Maybe it’s because I love sesame cakes, and also, I’m naturally physically strong,” Xie Zheng’s gaze fell on her lips, “How about we go back?”
"Hmm?" Was it just her imagination? He seemed less shy now, and even put his arms around her back.
Xie Zheng leaned close to her ear, his breath sweet as orchids, and said, "I promise to share a blanket with you."
"..." My ears were practically bleeding, but he agreed quite quickly.
"good."
She even suspected that Lord Xie was faking it because of his rapid change of heart.
He was even different from Xie Zheng before he lost his memory. Could it be that losing that wisp of his soul made him more carefree and obtuse, and more direct than before?
*
They each ate their favorite food on the street, and Xie Zheng made a point of noticing the words "West Wind City" written on the city gate when they entered the city.
Back at the inn, the sun had already set, and thick clouds slowly rolled in from the north.
It looks like there's going to be a thunderstorm tonight.
Song Chunxue talked with Senior Sister Fangyue for a while and learned that there was nothing unpleasant between them, which put Senior Sister Fangyue at ease.
She secretly gave Song Chunxue two pills, and after watching her take them, she took out another box.
"I've never seen a cooked duck survive. The look in Qingyun's eyes today made me realize that as her fourth sister, I have to help her."
Song Chunxue took the exquisite wooden box. "What is this? How can it help me?"
"Don't open it yet," Fangyue pressed her hand down. "Wait until you get back to your room before opening it. You'd better wear it tonight. I've heard that farmers can be quite wild sometimes, how come you're so reserved?"
"Hmm?" Song Chunxue looked at her curiously, wondering what she meant by that.
Fangyue looked at the box in her hand. "Don't let anyone else see it. The contents of the box are somewhat private. They are the private pleasures of wealthy families and middle-aged couples. You'll find out when you see it."
She glanced at the box and found it glaringly conspicuous. "Go ahead, go ahead. I'll keep an eye out for beauty pills for you in the future. You should also pay attention to this yourself. People with Daoist partners should be mindful of this, lest someone take advantage of them one day."
"Huh?" Song Chunxue realized that she could understand each word her senior sister said individually, but she couldn't understand them when put together.
"Oh dear, when I have the chance in the future, I'll secretly take you down the mountain to broaden your horizons." Fangyue patted her back. "For you, I've even developed desires for men."
Song Chunxue lowered her head awkwardly, "Doesn't Senior Sister have a man she likes?"
"Yes, but unfortunately, that man holds a high position of power and has a large number of wives and concubines." Fangyue gave a bitter smile. "So if you meet someone like Xie Zheng, you should be secretly happy and hurry up."
"It's getting windy. Go back inside, close the doors and windows, and take a good bath." Fangyue pushed her out of the room. "You must use the things in the box. If not this time, then next time."
This made Song Chunxue very curious about what was inside.
...
While Song Chunxue was taking a bath, she heard a knock on the door.
"who?"
"I brought you some Chinese yam and black chicken soup."
It was Xie Zheng's voice.
Song Chunxue smiled and said, "Come in."
She got out of the bathtub, dried herself off, and opened the box, wondering how unique the clothes her senior sister had given her could be.
The next moment, she slammed the lid shut.
Is this clothing that a human being can wear?
That's absolutely indecent.
Where did you buy this kind of clothing, senior sister?
But she thought it was an undergarment and didn't bring in a clean one.
Never mind, she closed her eyes, put it on first, then put on an outer garment, and changed back later.
But something's off about these clothes. They're so thin and light, it feels like you're not wearing anything at all.
After hesitating for a long time, Song Chunxue finally asked Xie Zheng, "Could you help me get the bundle off the chair?"
She was tidying her clothes outside just now, and she took out all of them using her storage ring.
Otherwise, she could pick one item from the storage ring at any time.
After looking around, she decided she should buy new clothes and trusted the new clothes her senior sister had given her.
Xie Zheng remained silent for a moment, then took the bundle and held it behind the screen.
Upon opening it, they found only underwear; Xie Zheng probably grabbed them casually because he didn't dare to look around carelessly.
Well, she'll just have to make do with it. Even she herself blushes when she sees it, but he shouldn't be able to see it under her outer garment.
However, these clothes have a pleasant fragrance.
I guess it was something my senior sister sprinkled to liven things up.
"Go wash up," Song Chunxue said, coming out from behind. "If it's inconvenient, just call me and I'll wipe your back for you."
She didn't think there was anything wrong with what he said, but Xie Zheng panicked and fumbled with his hands and feet.
"The chicken soup is still hot, have some. Senior Brother's cooking is pretty good." After saying that, Xie Zheng went behind the screen.
Song Chunxue liked chicken soup and also liked Chinese yam. After she finished drinking, she saw that Xie Zheng had already finished bathing and come out.
She forgot that she was supposed to change her clothes.
"This chicken soup is indeed delicious. Why did you decide to make chicken soup so late at night, Senior Brother?"
"Master wants to drink." Xie Zheng lowered his eyes and walked straight to the bedside, going inside the bed.
Song Chunxue hummed in agreement, rinsed her mouth, and walked directly to the bedside, casually taking off her outer garment as usual.
"..." Xie Zheng suddenly looked over in shock, stared at her clothes for a moment, then quickly turned his head away and raised his hand to cover his nose.
Song Chunxue hurriedly put on the clothes, breaking out in a cold sweat. She turned around, grabbed a bundle, and went behind the screen.
After switching places, she smiled helplessly. What was there to be afraid of? Lord Xie was probably silently chanting "Don't look at what's improper" in his heart.
She suddenly felt that sharing a bed with him was taking advantage of him.
Between husband and wife, it is not necessary to have such a thing to prove that their hearts are together.
Being able to stay by his side and understand him is better than anything else.
After dawdling for a moment, she calmly packed the clothes into the box and said to Xie Zheng, "You go to sleep first, I'll meditate for a while."
P.S.: Thanks to my best writing partner, who repeatedly advised me not to finish this book, even though I got scolded for it.
