Jellyfish Yin Ji chuckled, "You've certainly thought a lot through."

Lianxing sighed and said, "If we hadn't considered all this, things wouldn't have dragged on until now."

As she spoke, a smile appeared on Lianxing's face as she recalled her experience last night.

If, before tasting the sweetness, Lianxing was still somewhat timid,

Now that she has experienced it firsthand, Lianxing can only say that it was a huge profit, well worth it.

Then, Lianxing changed the subject, saying, "In the Song Dynasty, before the New Year's Eve, Sister Yuanxiao and Dongfang Bubai should be coming for the Lantern Festival. Have you thought about how to tell her?"

In response to Lianxing's question, Shuimu Yinji said calmly, "I've thought it through for now, but we still need to be cautious."

Lianxing looked at Shuimu Yinji with a puzzled expression and said, "Didn't you say that you wouldn't lose even if you faced both my sister and Dongfang Bubai at the same time? Why are you still being so cautious?"

Seeing that Lianxing didn't understand, Shuimu Yinji said irritably, "My strength is enough to deal with them now, but once my second and third sisters have both taken Qinghe's Purple Cloud Dragon Pattern Pill and broken through to the early stage of the Celestial Realm, do you think I can withstand the two of them working together?"

Lianxing thought for a moment and then nodded, "That's true!"

After saying that, as if realizing something, Lianxing looked at Shuimu Yinji with a deep gaze and said, "Your way of addressing me has already changed?"

Shuimu Yinji said nonchalantly, "We're all on the same side, why hide anything? Besides, if everything goes smoothly from here on out, we should be able to confirm our identities before the Lantern Festival, so we can get used to it in advance."

Lianxing rolled her eyes and said, "I don't know why you, my sister, and that Dongfang Bubai are so obsessed with this position?"

In Lianxing's opinion, as long as she stayed by Chu Qinghe's side, that would be fine.

Everything else is unimportant.

Seeing Lianxing's expression, Shuimu Yinji sighed, "You don't understand. If we don't get this position, it will be a problem for both of us."

Lianxing looked at Shuimu Yinji with confusion and asked, "Why?"

Jellyfish Yin Ji asked, "Do you feel that your energy and mood are much better than before today?"

When asked by the Water Mother Yin Princess, Lianxing couldn't help but recall what had happened last night, and a hint of shyness appeared on her face.

Then, looking slightly shy, she said, "People are in high spirits when they have a happy occasion!"

Seeing this, Jellyfish Yin Ji continued, "So, do you still want to go into the main house tonight?"

"Of course I want to."

Lianxing said this almost without thinking.

As soon as she said those words, Lianxing seemed to realize what was happening.

Then, looking at the jellyfish-like Yin Ji, she said, "You mean...?"

Seeing that Lianxing had realized what was happening, Shuimu Yinji sighed and said, "Yes! If they were still the eldest and second eldest sisters, we would have to go back to our own rooms as soon as they came back. Especially the eldest sister, unless Qinghe speaks up, she would basically have the right to live in the main house all by herself."

Lianxing stroked her chin and thought for a moment before affirming, "If that's the case, let alone Dongfang Bubai, my sister could do something like that too."

If Lianxing didn't understand what becoming the main wife meant before, now, with the reminder from the Water Mother Yin Princess, she clearly realizes the problem.

For Dongfang Bubai and Yaoyue, perhaps the title of "official wife" simply represented status.

But for the two of them, it also represents the right to stay overnight in the main house.

In other words, it's a part of the happy life for the two of them.

Thinking about it this way, things become very serious.

Only then did Lianxing say seriously, "No wonder you're so conflicted about this position."

Shuimu Yinji said, "So, if the two of them are still the eldest and second eldest sisters, then whenever they come back, we will not have the right to live in the main house. But if they become the second and third sisters, it will be different. We will definitely ensure fairness and impartiality, and everyone will be treated equally."

"As long as I eat meat, you'll have soup to drink. As long as I get a taste of sweetness, you won't be shortchanged."

Listening to what Jellyfish Yin Ji said, Lian Xing looked at Jellyfish Yin Ji with a serious expression and said, "I will definitely support you."

After a pause, Lianxing continued, "So what are you planning to do next?"

Jellyfish Yin Ji whispered, "Here's what I'm thinking: aren't Second Sister and Third Sister both arrogant? So we'll take advantage of that. Later, after Second Sister and Third Sister return..."

At this moment, Lianxing suddenly interrupted Shuimu Yinji, saying, "Wait a minute."

"What's wrong?"

Interrupted by Lianxing, Shuimu Yinji looked at Lianxing with a puzzled expression.

Meeting Jellyfish Yin Ji's gaze, Lian Xing whispered, "I think you shouldn't get used to this title yet. If you get used to saying it during this time, it will be troublesome if you don't change it when you meet your sister and Dongfang Bubai later."

"For now, we'll continue using the methods my eldest and second eldest sisters used to use. We'll gradually adapt once things are settled."

Hearing what Lianxing said, Shuimu Yinji nodded and said, "That makes sense."

After that, the two of them put their arms around each other and whispered among themselves under the camellia tree.

To ensure the secrecy of their conversation, the two even used their internal energy and true essence to isolate themselves.

Standing at the doorway, Chu Qinghe couldn't help but roll his eyes as he watched the two whispering together.

.........

noon.

After lunch, Chu Qinghe patted his stomach, having eaten and drunk his fill, and then gave an order.

A moment later, after Xiao Zhao placed a small stove and a miniature hand warmer in the wine room, Chu Qinghe instructed the women not to disturb him before entering his own room.
