After a long while, he finally realized what he had done. He felt extremely embarrassed and his face flushed instantly.
"Lie down and sleep, don't make me angry." Rong Xi looked at him and said unhappily.
After hearing this, Song Yanyin didn't dare to say anything. He just lay there quietly, feeling the warmth from the quilt and the equally faint fragrance from his wife. The fragrance lingered in his nose, giving him an inexplicable sense of security.
It was still early outside and Rong Xi hadn't slept enough. Without saying a word, she pulled up the quilt and lay down, her movements very quick and decisive.
This was the first time that the two of them lay together so closely.
Fortunately, the light in the room was still relatively dim. If it were daytime, the blush on Song Yanyin's face due to embarrassment would probably be impossible to hide.
"Wife." Song Yanyin called softly, with a hint of caution in her voice.
"Go to sleep. If you don't want to sleep here, I'll go out and ask your people to take you back." Rong Xi said lazily with his eyes closed.
After hearing this, Song Yanyin stopped talking. Perhaps because he hadn't slept all night, he was really sleepy. After a while, he fell into a deep sleep.
Rong Xi was feeling very sleepy and hadn't gotten enough sleep, but suddenly there was another person on the bed, which made her lose her sleepiness immediately.
When Qiu Shuang came in quietly to bring her the clothes she would wear today, she simply stood up.
"Girl..."
"Shh..."
As soon as Qiu Shuang opened her mouth, Rong Xi quickly signaled her to be quiet.
Qiu Shuang then saw someone sleeping in the back and was immediately shocked. Although she was not surprised that this person was Yin Xiaolang, how could this happen when the girl had not yet awakened her faith?
She looked worried, and Rong Xi noticed her expression, so he explained to her in a low voice.
"Don't worry, nothing happened."
After saying that, Rong Xi was afraid of waking up Song Yanyin, so he pulled Qiu Shuang out of the inner room and told her roughly what happened last night when Yin Xiaolang had been kneeling in the room.
"How can a girl be so indulgent as to let Yin Xiaolang stay in your room? I'm going to say something I shouldn't say. A girl hasn't awakened her faith yet, so she must not have any intimate behavior with a man before this." Qiu Shuang said with a worried look on her face.
Rong Xi knew that she was doing this for his own good, so he patted her hand gently and comforted her, "I know all this, don't worry, nothing will happen."
But Qiu Shuang was still full of worries, and secretly decided to give Yin Xiaolang some advice in private.
When Song Yanyin woke up, it was almost time for lunch. He looked at the strange yet familiar bed and suddenly remembered what happened in the morning.
His wife actually wanted him to sleep in her bed, which made him feel like he was in a dream, so unreal.
There was no one in the room. He got out of bed and saw the whip that had been put away on the shelf beside him. He suddenly remembered what his wife said last night that she didn't want him anymore, and he felt panicked.
When he walked out of the house, he saw Cuizhu waiting outside. Seeing Cuizhu's happy face, he couldn't help but ask in confusion, "What's wrong with you?"
"Congratulations, Xiaolang." Cuizhu said with a smile.
"Where are the congratulations?" Song Yanyin was a little confused.
"Not only was the girl not angry yesterday, she also let the boy rest in her room. I guess she still has feelings for him," Cuizhu explained.
Song Yanyin blushed inexplicably as he recalled their intimate actions that morning. If his wife had always been so gentle, how could he have had those bad thoughts before?
Fortunately, his wife is no longer obsessed with his elder brother and younger brother. No matter what her intentions are, he can accept them with pleasure.
"Don't say this casually, and this is in my wife's yard. It would be bad if someone heard it." Song Yanyin warned.
"Yes, Xiaolang."
"Let's go back." After Song Yanyin said that, she took her people away.
After he went back to wash up, he returned to Rongxiyuan again.
At this time, Rong Xi had already returned from the study. She looked as if all her energy had been drained away. She lay on a chaise longue with a look of despair on her face, allowing others to massage her.
Once again, she felt the profound weakness of reading. Why was she so sleepy? An hour had passed, and she hadn't even finished an article. She had nearly dozed off several times, and now her legs were covered in bruises from pinching herself to stay awake.
"System, please confirm again, does the original owner really want to take the imperial examination?" Rong Xi communicated with the system in his heart.
After reading the system for the whole morning, Rong Xi really couldn't finish reading those books at all. He must have been too influenced by the original owner.
The system replied, "Rong Xi, I looked at it again. Her wish is to become an official."
Rong Xi was filled with helplessness. How could she, who couldn't drop a drop of ink even if she hung upside down for three days, want to become an official and take the imperial examination?
No, she is rich, otherwise she could buy an official position...
Rong Xi thought this was a solution, but it was quickly stopped by the system.
System: [Rong Xi, don't overthink those nonsense. The current emperor hates corrupt officials, and most of his officials are truly talented and knowledgeable. If you are discovered, you will be beheaded.]
…
The table was already laden with delicious food, and Rong Xi was dragged and supported by Qiu Shuang and Dong Xue to the table. They were truly helpless. A girl wasn't cut out for studying, so why did she agree to take the imperial examination? Wasn't that just asking for trouble?
"Come on, girl, eat something. These are your favorite dishes. I asked the kitchen to prepare them for you."
Qiu Shuang felt that the girl needed some nourishment. Reading those books this morning had consumed too much of her energy.
Rong Xi was shocked when he saw it. What on earth was this red thing on the table? Braised pork had turned into braised pork with chili peppers, and garlic spare ribs had turned into spare ribs with chili peppers. What the hell was this?
"Qiushuang, why are the dishes so spicy today?" She tilted her head, her face full of confusion.
"These are the girl's favorite foods. The spicier they are, the better you like them. I saw that the girl had no appetite today, so I asked someone to prepare these." Qiu Shuang replied.
…
Although...but...it's really delicious.
No, isn’t it easy to get a sore throat after eating so much spicy food?
Rong Xi put down her chopsticks and quietly took her own pulse. As expected, her liver fire was too strong. No wonder the original owner was so prone to temper tantrums. Even she almost couldn't hold it back last night.
Okay, okay, so this is the source of your death from the black lotus poison.
The system originally thought that Rong Xi would stop eating these foods after discovering the reason and would ask people to change to lighter ones. However, it did not expect that Rong Xi would enjoy eating more and more and would not stop even when the food was so spicy that it was difficult to breathe.
Just then, Song Yanyin came over with a food box in his hand. Seeing Rong Xi so spicy, he shook his head helplessly.
