The autumn harvest holiday lasted for twenty days, and Mu Yi'an and her two sisters-in-law enjoyed more than twenty days of relaxation, not having to cook for so many people.

During this time, Mu Yi'an and Jiang Shuyun visited the fields that Mu Yi'an had given as part of her dowry several times, guiding Jiang San's family to plant wheat and soybeans. After the soybeans were harvested next spring, they could plant watermelons.

Mu Yi'an hasn't mentioned growing watermelons to Uncle Jiang's family yet. This matter needs further planning; seeds, fertilizer, pricing, and sales channels all need to be sorted out.

"Jiang Shuyun, how are you feeling after a busy autumn?"

"I'm so tired! I never knew farmers worked so hard. This is the first time I've truly understood the ancient poem, 'Who knows that every grain on the plate is the result of hard work?'"

As Jiang Shuyun spoke, he subconsciously rubbed his lower back. Lately, he felt his back had been strained considerably. In the past, the greatest strain his back had ever exerted was on women—alas, those were days he didn't want to recall!

"hehe……"

Mu Yi'an sneered twice. This young master, who grew up in a honey pot, has finally experienced the hardships of life.

"I've never done this before, everyone has a first time. Look at me, my face is all bruised, my hands are all cut and calloused."

Mu Yi'an found it amusing to see Jiang Shuyun looking a little aggrieved. It was almost heartbreaking to see a grown man making such a small expression.

“I didn’t say anything, and I didn’t look down on you, really. It’s normal that you don’t know how to do farm work. Back then, how many people knew how to do farm work, especially this kind of purely manual labor? The fact that you’ve been able to persevere for so many days is already amazing!”

What can Mu Yi'an do? She's the kind of person who responds better to gentle persuasion than force.

"I'm glad you didn't make fun of me. We're the closest people here. I don't know anything, so I'm relying on you for everything."

"Jiang Shuyun, you've broken the rules! How can you do that? And you're even acting cute?"

"hehe……"

Jiang Shuyun discovered this during their time together: Mu Yi'an seemed difficult to talk to, had a sharp tongue, and a bad temper, but she was actually a soft-hearted person despite her tough exterior.

He's right. Here, they are the closest people, regardless of blood ties or anything else, simply because they come from the same place, received the same nine years of compulsory education, and share the same values.

Mu Yi'an looked at Jiang Shuyun, who was laughing non-stop, and smiled too. This young master, although he couldn't do anything, had a good personality and hadn't gone astray. It wasn't tiring to be with him.

"Alright, the autumn harvest is over, and we don't need to do anything in the fields for now. You just focus on your studies, and I need to think about how to grow watermelons well next spring and make a fortune."

Jiang Shuyun, you may have never lacked money, never worried about money, and never felt a sense of economic crisis. But I've known since I can remember that my family was poor, that money was hard to come by, and that earning money wasn't easy. Therefore, I need to have a certain amount of money on hand to feel at ease.

Jiang Shuyun's heart suddenly ached, unsure whether it was because of this woman's sudden weakness or something else.

"Well, I haven't had that kind of experience. I've never lacked money growing up, but I lacked companionship before. Whatever you want to do, I'll cooperate with you. We've agreed that we're partners and comrades-in-arms now. As for what will happen in the future, we'll have to figure that out slowly."

What comes next?

Mu Yi'an was a little confused. What could they possibly be in the future?

Looking at the somewhat bewildered Mu Yi'an, Jiang Shuyun knew that this woman hadn't quite grasped the situation yet.

“We’ll be an inseparable couple from now on, lovers who will support each other through thick and thin! You don’t think we’ll stay like this forever, do you? We’re all men and women, and although I’m not particularly enthusiastic about sex, we can’t live a sexless life forever. That’s against human nature and bad for our health.”

Jiang Shuyun sounded aggrieved, and Mu Yi'an almost laughed again.

"Nobody told you to abstain from sex. We just arrived and have been busy with all sorts of things, so we haven't had time to think about it yet. But, Young Master Jiang, how's your technique?"

As soon as Mu Yi'an finished speaking, Jiang Shuyun's face turned bright red, as red as a monkey's bottom.

"You, you woman, why do you say everything?"

Jiang Shuyun fled in panic, while Mu Yi'an burst into laughter. How adorable! Such a big girl, yet so thin-skinned.

Mu Yi'an thought about it; she had been single for a while before coming here, almost a year since her last breakup with her ex-boyfriend. Hmm, with Jiang Shuyun's advances, she was actually starting to feel tempted.

However, just thinking about it made her a little hesitant, since she wasn't really familiar with Jiang Shuyun. Also, she was worried about getting pregnant, since there weren't fruit-flavored condoms in this era. And the original owner of this body, whether from breastfeeding or something else, hadn't had her period since arriving here, and hadn't been calculating her safe period.

Now, Jiang Shuyun shyly hid away, and Mu Yi'an had no one to tease anymore, so he could only stare at Chu Yue on the bed. The little one, who was over seven months old, was no longer a toothless baby; she had grown four teeth, two front teeth on the top and two on the bottom.

Not only have they grown teeth, but they've also learned to crawl. They use both hands and feet, crawling very nimbly, and before you know it, they're at the edge of the bed. The little one is quite clever; once they reach the edge, they stop and don't try to climb any further, just lingering around it. So far, they haven't fallen off the bed.

"Ah, ah..."

Chuyue climbed into Mu Yi'an's arms and started tugging at her mother's clothes, her head bobbing up and down, indicating she was hungry and wanted to nurse.

"Oh dear, you're such a glutton! You just finished eating and you're hungry again. Your mother's food probably doesn't have much nutrition left; it's almost like you're rinsing your mouth with water. Little girl, let's talk about something. From now on, you can drink goat milk and stop rinsing your mouth with this."

"Ah, ah..."

Whether the little guy understood or not, he made a few "ah ah" sounds during a break and then buried his head in his food again.

"Sigh, there's no going back now. Your mother's breasts are in good shape, but if you keep eating them like this, they're bound to sag. There aren't any padded, shaping bras available now, and sagging breasts don't look good in clothes!"

Mu Yi'an muttered to himself, while little Jiang Chuyue continued drinking her milk unaffected, one hand protecting another food bag, the other kicking her leg around, her posture casual and carefree.

Jiang Shuyun, who had just escaped from the inner room, entered the study and fanned herself vigorously with her hand. Mu Yi'an, that woman, really dares to say anything, without a shred of shame.

Think about Jiang Shuyun, who was once a wealthy, handsome, and financially independent young talent. How did he end up being driven to flee in disarray by this woman, Mu Yi'an?

But thinking back, the original owner's wife had a pretty good figure. At night, that woman, Mu Yi'an, would occasionally roll into his arms, so he knew all about it.

Sigh, I wonder when they'll be able to have a real married life. Otherwise, he's afraid he'll develop health problems from holding back for too long.

The two people in different rooms were thinking the same thing, their understanding was perfect.

Food and sex are essential to life; we can't live without them. Although they're not necessities, we absolutely can't do without them!
