Xu Ningyan stood up in confusion and hissed.
Okay, it is a little uncomfortable, but not that bad.
Hmm, it's probably not that Jiang Zhiyuan is incompetent; she thinks he's quite capable, cough cough~
Xu Ningyan's face turned pale as she recalled last night, well, she ate too much meat!
The door opened silently, and Jiang Zhiyuan walked in. He saw Xu Ningyan sitting on the bed, her face flushed and her eyes glazed over, seemingly lost in thought.
Jiang Zhiyuan's Adam's apple bobbed, and he walked a few steps to the bedside, pulled her into his arms, and casually took the cotton-padded coat next to him and draped it over Xu Ningyan's shoulders, saying softly, "Awake? Do you want to get up? Or lie down a little longer?"
Xu Ningyan remembered hearing voices first and shook her head: "I'm not going to sleep! Are Mom and Zhixing back?"
Jiang Zhiyuan nodded: "Zhixing came over after get off work tonight. Mom just finished her night shift and went back to her room to rest. I told Mom you went to bed late last night and wanted you to get some more sleep. Mom understands!"
He glanced at Xu Ningyan with a slightly darker look in his eyes. Last night, some people were crying and begging for mercy, shouting in pain.
Moreover, when Jiang Yuan returned in the morning, she knew that Xu Ningyan was still asleep, and she specifically told her to let Xu Ningyan rest well and not to wake her up.
Xu Ningyan glared at Jiang Zhiyuan, thinking, "What a straight man."
Unexpectedly, nothing went wrong on their wedding night, but on the very second day of their marriage, Jiang Zhiyuan had him killed!
How is she supposed to face her mother-in-law, Jiang Yuan, now?
With a wail, Xu Ningyan pushed Jiang Zhiyuan away, grabbed the blanket and covered her head, lying back down helplessly. God, let her be destroyed!
Jiang Zhiyuan didn't understand Xu Ningyan's dilemma and thought he had gone too far last night, so he nervously went over to her and asked, "Yanyan, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell? Let me see?"
He was about to pull back the covers when he said that.
The two of them tugged and pulled at the blanket for a long time. The young couple, one having tasted the sweetness and the other relying on their youth and good recovery, gradually changed their attitude as they pulled and pulled, and in the end, somehow they ended up rolling around in a ball together...
When I woke up again, it was already noon.
Xu Ningyan opened her eyes, her body limp, as Jiang Zhiyuan held her in his arms. One of his arms, with an extremely possessive grip, was placed under her neck, while the other encircled her waist, holding her tightly against his chest.
Behind me was his long, steady breathing, my back pressed against his burning chest.
I must say, in the dead of winter, having such a natural fireplace to cuddle with while sleeping is really warm!
There was already some commotion outside; Jiang Yuan was talking to her lackey.
Even though Xu Ningyan was shy, she was too embarrassed to sleep anymore.
Struggling to get up, she was horrified to discover that she seemed to have a stiff neck.
Family members, who would believe that?! Who in their family would have a stiff neck on the second day of their marriage?
Xu Ningyan sat up with a grimace, rubbing her neck.
Jiang Zhiyuan was a very alert sleeper, and he woke up as soon as Xu Ningyan moved. He opened his eyes and looked at Xu Ningyan tenderly, his eyes filled with unyielding affection and satisfaction.
Then I saw Xu Ningyan tilt her head and rub it with her hand.
He sat up as well, pulled her into his arms, and placed one hand on her neck, gently massaging it while softly asking, "What's wrong?"
My heart was pounding. Didn't the brothers say that after the first night, the bride would have a sore back, weak thighs, and a hoarse throat? Why did my wife have a sore neck?
Xu Ningyan glared at him: "You're not allowed to cuddle with me while sleeping anymore!"
Jiang Zhiyuan was taken aback: "Why?"
Xu Ningyan pointed to her neck.
Jiang Zhiyuan tightened his grip on her neck, his expression unchanged: "That must be because I'm inexperienced and my hug was uncomfortable! We'll practice more and it'll be fine!"
Xu Ningyan spat at him.
I no longer believe that in domineering romance novels and erotic stories, a woman can sleep with her head on a man's arm all night and wake up to find the two still affectionate.
Pshaw! It's all a lie!
He sneered, "Isn't your arm numb?"
Jiang Zhiyuan paused for a moment, but quickly recovered: "It's not numb."
"I don't believe you!" Xu Ningyan rolled her eyes at him.
However, Jiang Zhiyuan's technique was really good. After massaging for a while, my neck didn't feel so uncomfortable anymore.
Xu Ningyan got up, dressed, and tentatively got out of bed.
Stand firm! Good, your legs didn't give way and you sat down on the ground!
Aside from some soreness in areas I can't talk about, everything is within my tolerance.
Seeing that Xu Ningyan had gotten up, Jiang Zhiyuan naturally felt it was no longer appropriate to stay in bed.
He got up behind, and he was fast.
By the time Xu Ningyan got dressed and got out of bed, he had already tidied up and prepared warm mouthwash and water for her to wash her face.
While Xu Ningyan was washing up, she tidied up the bed again.
Then, leaning against the door, he watched Xu Ningyan sitting in front of the mirror at the dressing table, applying makeup and combing her hair, unable to suppress the smile on her lips.
Xu Ningyan looked at herself in the mirror. A night had passed, and although there was no obvious sign of lust in her eyes, she looked as if she had been nourished.
But you can also see that you look great in the mirror, with a rosy complexion and a fair complexion. It's as if you've grown up overnight.
I came out after washing up.
Hearing the commotion, Jiang Yuan also came out of the house. When she saw Xu Ningyan, she smiled and looked him up and down. Hmm, he's fine, nothing's wrong, and he seems more energetic.
She couldn't help but look at her son suspiciously. She had made room for him so early last night, but the young couple hadn't come out this morning, and she had even vaguely heard them making noise.
After all this fuss, the daughter-in-law still looks radiant. Could it be that her son is too old to keep up?
A sudden thought struck her, but Jiang Yuan kept her composure and began to consider whether she should take some time to have Jiang Zhiyuan visit Old Master Yu and get some tonics.
The daughter-in-law is still young, but the son is already failing. What will happen in the future?
Although Jiang Zhiyuan felt that his mother's gaze was a bit strange, he didn't think much of it.
If he knew that his own mother thought he was incapable and even wanted to prescribe him tonics, who knows what the situation would be like.
However, at this moment, everyone was in a harmonious and joyful mood.
It was almost noon, so Xu Ningyan didn't need to eat breakfast.
Jiang Yuan had prepared everything; on such a fine day, it was time to eat hot pot.
There happened to be half a sheep frozen in the snowdrift outside.
Without being told, Jiang Zhiyuan took the initiative to unload a leg of lamb and a piece of lamb brain meat, which he would slice and cook in a hot pot later.
Today's hot pot is authentic Beijing hot pot.
Sliced mutton and beef are first cooked in clear water in a copper pot, turning the water into broth, and then vegetables and vermicelli are cooked in the broth.
Served with sesame paste and chive blossoms, and a dipping sauce made with fermented bean curd, it has a unique flavor.
We had some leftover steamed buns from yesterday's banquet, so we heated them up and ate them.
The three people sat around the stove, their faces glowing with the warmth of the food.
After eating and drinking her fill, Xu Ningyan felt drowsy, but Jiang Zhiyuan was worried that if she got tired, she wouldn't be able to sleep at night, which would be bad for her health.
He dragged her to the west wing to see the gifts.
Gifts? Xu Ningyan was surprised. When they got married yesterday, they told the guests in advance that they would not accept gifts but would accept monetary gifts. Where did these gifts come from?
