Lu Tu gently stroked Nangong Huiyu's pert buttocks: "Alright, even if you can't do anything, you're still the best in my eyes."
"real?"
"Of course it's true. You and Yuxi are the most perfect women in the world. It's my greatest blessing to be able to marry you."
"My husband, you are so good to me, and my sister is so good to me too. I am so happy!" Nangong Huiyu buried her head in Lu Tu's arms and snuggled up to him.
Song Yuxi felt sorry for Nangong Huiyu's background. She never mentioned her parents and only ever talked about her master, which meant that she was born an orphan and grew up relying on her master.
At least I had experienced the kindness of my parents and the pampering of my older brother for more than ten years, but Nangong Huiyu could only follow her master since childhood, making her even more pitiful than me.
"Little sister, I will never let anyone bully you again, not even your husband."
Nangong Huiyu seemed to sense the emotions in Song Yuxi's words, and tears instantly welled up in her eyes. She happily grabbed Lu Tu's clothes to wipe her face and laughed, "I won't allow anyone to bully my sister either, I swear!"
Lu Tu quickly changed the subject and asked, "By the way, Xiao Yu, you said that some of your junior brothers' sect members have passed away. Does that mean that your sect's unique skills have been lost?"
Nangong Huiyu smiled and said, "Actually, the founder had already thought of this, which is why he told us to always carry the sect leader's token with us, because all those ultimate skills are contained in the token!"
Song Yuxi asked worriedly, "Isn't it very dangerous that the token is in Xu Jing's hands?"
"It's not dangerous at all. With Xu Jing's pig brain, he'll never discover the secret. Not to mention Xu Jing, only I in the whole world can open it!"
Hearing her confident words, Lü Tu and Song Yuxi finally felt relieved. As long as it was in Xujing, that was fine; they would be able to get it sooner or later.
But as Xiao Zhong said, it's not the right time yet. If we ask for the token now, Xu Jing will definitely know that Nangong Huiyu is here. In that case, Xu Jing will most likely run out of options and fight us to the death.
It seems that Xu Jing's concern for Nangong Huiyu is not because he likes her, but because he wants to know the secret of the Xuanpin Society!
"My wife, let's go to bed."
"Mmm!" The two responded happily, and soon began to snore softly, one on each side. It seemed that neither of them had slept since Lü Tu fell unconscious last night. Upon smelling the familiar scent, Lü Tu quickly drifted off to sleep as well.
...
The next day, all three of them slept until late morning, only to be woken up by Ban Yingying and Jiang Wanyu knocking on the door.
"My lord, my lady, I've brought you your meal."
"Wait a minute, they're not up yet!" Lu Tu called out to the door, and then heard Ban Yingying and the other girl giggling outside.
Nangong Huiyu hurriedly put on her clothes, got up and opened the door. The two of them quickly went into the house to clean the table, took out a few small dishes of pickled vegetables from the vegetable basket, and brought out a pot of steaming millet porridge.
Song Yuxi took the bowl, helped Lü Tu up, and began to feed him.
At that moment, Lü Tu suddenly noticed a furtive head peering at him from the windowsill. He shouted sharply, "Who's there?"
"Ah? Brother Lü, it's me!" Qin Qianqian stood at the door with her hands behind her back, staring at him with red eyes.
Lu Tu smiled and asked, "Qianqian, have you eaten?"
"Brother Lü, are you still in pain?"
"It doesn't hurt anymore, is there anything wrong?"
Qin Qianqian also took out a basket from behind her: "This is the medicine that Doctor Zhang prescribed for you, brother. However, it can only be taken after meals. I thought you had already eaten, so I'll take it back and reheat it."
Song Yuxi smiled and waved to her, saying, "Silly girl, the medicine won't be as effective if it's heated up. Just bring it here and drink it later."
"Oh, okay." But she turned back just as she was about to go inside, and said timidly, "I'd like to trouble you, Yingying, to give this to my older brother for me."
Ban Yingying was a little curious. She had talked a lot with Qin Qianqian these past two days and found that Qin Qianqian was good in every way, but she had a sense of distance that kept people at arm's length, which she couldn't understand.
Qin Qianqian didn't dare to go out yesterday because there were too many villagers outside. She knew her own condition and didn't want to infect others, so she waited until today to observe Lü Tu's condition.
Seeing that Lü Tu was in good condition, she breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Brother, you will get better soon. I'm going to chop wood."
"Okay, go ahead."
Lu Tu observed everyone's behavior. Although Qin Qianqian came from a humble background, she was kind-hearted and grateful. He did not look down on her at all. Once she recovered, Lu Tu would let her try to integrate into the village and live like other girls.
Just as he finished his breakfast and medicine, Hu Delu's shouts came from outside again: "My lord, my lord!"
Lu Tu responded, "What are you howling about so early in the morning?"
Seeing that Lü Tu still had the mood to scold him, Hu Delu came to the door and chuckled: "Sir, I brought you a treasure!"
Seeing his mysterious demeanor, Lü Tu couldn't help but ask curiously, "What treasure?"
Hu Delu waved his hand towards the distance outside the door: "My lord, please look!"
Liu Yang was pushing a handcart with a seat strapped to it. Lu Tu knew it was for him and couldn't help but laugh, "What were you thinking? The doctor told me to stay in bed and rest."
“I thought that adults love to move around, and it’s not comfortable to lie in bed for too long. There will always be times when they want to go out for some fresh air, so I made this. When that happens, I, Old Hu, can push you out for a walk.”
Song Yuxi nodded in agreement: "Husband, this is also a token of Lao Hu's goodwill, please accept it."
Lu Tu was also moved, but he laughed and scolded, "Old Hu, you still have some conscience. It wasn't for nothing that I introduced you to a wife. Alright, let's go out for a stroll!"
