On a bright summer night, with countless stars in the sky, Lu Wanqing was pulled along and jogged to the riverbank.
The river water is crystal clear, reflecting the starry sky and giving people a dreamlike feeling.
Lin Ye took her hand and led her into the water.
In the quiet night, apart from the chirping of cicadas and the croaking of frogs, there is only the sound of flowing water.
The river water, still warm from being baked by the scorching sun, felt incredibly comforting against the skin.
"Aye, I'm scared."
Lu Wanqing said sweetly, "There's a thin layer of water plants under my feet, and my toes feel a little unsteady on them."
Lin Ye wrapped his arms around her and let her hang around his neck. "Don't be afraid, tuck your feet in."
His voice was hoarse, like sandpaper scraping against a table, and full of allure.
Lu Wanqing hooked her arms around his neck and wrapped her legs around his waist.
When the water reached above her shoulders, Lin Ye stopped, took out one hand, and let her coiled hair fall loose. Her hair was thick and beautiful, swaying in the water like seaweed.
The starry sky, the soothing river—everything was intoxicating and comforting. Without any hesitation, Lin Ye kissed Lu Wanqing's lips.
This time, his kiss was intense, and his gnarled arms seemed to want to meld her whole body into his broad chest.
The world was so quiet that only their heartbeats could be heard.
They stayed together and hugged for a long time...
Lu Wanqing was carried back by Lin Ye.
After returning home, Lin Ye wiped her body with warm water and thoroughly dried her hair with a towel before letting her go to sleep.
Lu Wanqing was too tired. She lay on the bed, letting him do as he pleased. Her eyelids were heavy, but he coaxed her not to sleep until her hair was completely dry.
It was all because of him that she took him to the river to bathe and got her hair wet.
"Next time, I'll try not to get your hair wet." Lin Ye kissed his earlobe, her voice sexy and alluring.
The next day, when Lu Wan woke up, her body felt weak and sore as if she had been run over by a truck. Xueqiu jumped onto the bed and playfully rubbed against her, but Lin Ye picked her up and threw her outside.
"I'll cook first, then you can sleep a little longer." Lin Ye kissed her forehead.
Lu Wanqing bit her lip, her face turning as red as a ripe tomato. Thinking of the passionate scene between the two of them last night, she buried her head in the thin blanket.
I'm so shy!
They actually consummated their marriage in the embrace of nature.
Just like in his previous life, once this man confirmed his feelings for her, he would be insatiable in wanting her.
She lingered in bed for a long time before finally getting up.
Breakfast consisted of red date and lean pork porridge, and a bowl of steamed egg custard.
Lin Ye doesn't like eating red dates; these are for her and her mother.
I ate cornbread.
"Have a bowl of porridge too, or you won't have the energy to work." Lu Wanqing ladled out a bowl of porridge for him, picked out the red dates one by one, and put them into her own bowl.
Lin Ye stared intently at her with his dark eyes, his thin lips parting slightly: "Are you doubting my strength?"
Lu Wanqing felt a burning sensation on her face as he stared at her with his wild and rugged eyes.
She quickly looked away, but her gaze inadvertently brushed against his thick arm.
Her face turned even redder.
Yes, he is indeed very strong; he could hold her up for two hours without any problem.
"I'm not worried that you haven't eaten enough?" Lu Wanqing bit her lip.
"Even if I don't eat my fill, it won't affect my work!" Lin Ye pinched her cheek; it was soft and cute.
Lu Wanqing spent the whole morning lost in thought, so she could only try harder to design clothes to distract herself.
She had been looking forward to the day when she and Lin Ye would be of one mind, thinking that she would be able to handle things with ease. However, she never expected that she would be more emotional and more immersed in the relationship now than in her previous life.
Lin Ye wasn't much better off. When he was at work, he would always hear Lu Wanqing's shy face and the image of her hair swaying in the water.
I heard that Luo Hao hunted a pheasant last night to nourish his mother, so he insisted on going to Aunt Luo's house to ask for half of it.
My wife is tired and needs to recover.
Before he had earned enough work points in the morning, he rushed home and slowly stewed a chicken over a low flame.
After simmering for an hour, the aroma of chicken infused with Ganoderma lucidum filled the air, making one's mouth water.
Lin Gou Dan stubbornly moved with zombie-like steps, taking a quarter of an hour to reach the yard, hoping to ask Lin Ye for a piece of chicken.
"If you want chicken, go buy it yourself," Lin Ye said gruffly.
Forget about eating chicken, you can't even get a sip of soup.
When Wang Xiuqin returned from work, she saw her son staring longingly at the west room, practically drooling. She immediately realized that Lin Ye was eating alone again, and jumped up and down, scolding him:
"Lin Ye, you're such a selfish bastard! Your own brother's leg is all messed up, and you don't even try to help. When there's something good to eat, you only think about outsiders! You're selfish and greedy! Your whole family is rotten to the core!"
After serving Lu Wanqing and Zhao Xiaolan a full bowl of chicken, Lin Ye returned to the stove and poured a pot of boiling water in front of Wang Xiuzhi.
Boiling water and mud splashed all over her, scalding her so much that she screamed, "Lin Ye, are you blind? Can't you see me standing here?!"
"Excuse me, ma'am, if I were blind, the boiling water wouldn't have splashed on you, it would have been spilled all over you!"
Lin Ye glared at her.
Wang Xiuqin shuddered. Who said Lin Ye wasn't as fierce as before? His sinister eyes looked like he wanted to devour her alive. She'd better run away quickly.
On a hot summer afternoon, it's easy to feel sleepy after a big meal.
While everyone was resting, Lu Wanqing secretly called Lin Xiaocui over. Several families in Wangjia Village had asked her to make clothes, and she needed to make a trip to the village to help them.
Before leaving, Lu Wanqing handed her the chicken she had specially saved for her, saying, "Eat this first, and wear a straw hat later so you don't get sunburned."
"Okay." Lin Xiaocui happily took the bowl of rice and drank every last drop of the chicken soup.
She found that everything they made, whether it was simple mung bean soup or this specially brewed chicken soup, was exceptionally delicious.
She used to be constantly hungry, and her face had a sallow, malnourished look. Now, the sallowness has faded, and she looks radiant. Her skin is also much better than before—it's moisturized, fair, and everyone who sees her compliments her on how much prettier she is.
After eating and drinking her fill, she took the clothes she had made and headed towards Wangjia Brigade. In less than an hour, she ran back, panting heavily, and banged on the door of the west room.
At this moment, Lu Wanqing was taking a nap in Lin Ye's arms. Hearing the noise, she quickly sat up, woke Lin Ye up, and tidied her messy clothes.
The door opened, and Lin Xiaocui rushed in, saying in a panic, "Big brother, wake up! Sister Chunhua is arguing with someone! The other person looks really scary, holding a carrying pole, like they're going to hit someone!"
