When Niannian heard what I said, she remembered the fierce look in my eyes. If I gave her a chance, I think it would disappear.
She tried to crawl over, but Xie Yuancheng's needle pierced a vital acupoint, causing her to wail on the ground. No matter how much she rolled around, it didn't help, and the village chief began to beg for mercy again.
"She tried to harm my wife, this is the lightest punishment possible." Xie Yuancheng threw out a signal flare, and archers hidden in the shadows appeared and began to clear the way, allowing us to mount our horses and leave.
The village chief was howling behind me. What's the use of howling now? Where was he before? He can't even teach his daughter properly. The girls around me were also looking at me with resentment.
They must never have looked in a mirror. If they want to steal someone, at least they're better looking than me. Maybe they have some outstanding qualities. Let's think about what happens next.
They look so strange, it scares me. "Yuancheng, they look so weird. Not only are they not pretty, but they're also wearing ghost makeup."
I said loudly, "Those girls have started to riot. I'm telling the truth. Why are they so agitated?"
"Ying'er~ you're being naughty again." Xie Yuancheng just laughed from behind: "Let's not look at the scenery anymore, the scenery at home is better, let's take the official road."
He originally wanted to go to some interesting places with me, but I don't know what will happen next. I originally disagreed with taking the official road, but now I have no choice but to agree.
"Yes, it's better to look at normal people. They're all deformed and have bad hearts. They want to become wives in the Marquis's mansion. They're really dreaming."
The girls behind me were in an uproar, which made me very happy. They were just stirring up trouble, and I wasn't going to hold back my words.
Xie Yuancheng laughed from behind. His mood changed so quickly every time, I'm used to it. This time he did me a favor by protecting me, so I won't hold it against him.
The archers left only after we left the village. I couldn't be bothered to listen to the villagers beating their daughters and cursing them as sluts. They came to steal my spot; they deserved to be beaten.
"Ying'er, they didn't see what we were doing on the way." Even now, Xie Yuancheng only remembers this!
"Don't change the subject. Tell me quickly, how did you get to this village?"
“It was my fault. Last time something happened in the village, first it was bandits, then it was nearby officials. I thought they were the same as before, although the village chief was acting a bit strange.”
"If the archers weren't so cool, we would have been treated like puppets long ago~"
I was so angry. I had already told him that the village was bad, but he still wanted to go in.
"Ying'er~" Xie Yuancheng's voice changed again. I turned around and he put his arm around my waist and started kissing me. What did I do to offend him? Waaah, he was just trying to be helpful.
"Who's better, me or those archers?" Xie Yuancheng smiled, knowing something was about to happen.
"Of course it's you." I didn't even realize when I was sitting upside down, leaning against him.
"Then why did you say they were handsome? Do they look as good as me?" He started arguing again. At this point, I had to go along with him. I said a lot of nice things and let him do whatever he wanted before he stopped getting angry.
That day, a torrential downpour began. We were chatting and laughing when suddenly we were adrift. Xie Yuancheng rode his horse around in circles before finally finding a place.
"Yuancheng~" I was worried there might be snakes inside. It's amazing that these things have survived for so many years.
"Ying'er, don't be afraid, I, the fox, will protect you." Xie Yuancheng ignored my wet back, tied up the horse, and carried me inside.
"Your injury hasn't fully healed yet, let me down."
"No, I'm all better now." Xie Yuancheng was stubborn, just like a big boy. His face, wet from the rain, looked even paler than usual.
I leaned over to warm his neck and kissed his back. It was supposed to be a good thing, but this bastard misunderstood: "Ying'er, when we start a fire later, I'll give you everything."
"You're overthinking things again. I'm just worried about you. I read in a medical book that warming your neck when you're cold can make you feel much better. You're hugging me right now, so how can I warm your hands?"
My heart is cold, but everything else is warm.
Xie Yuancheng carried me to collect firewood. I was only a little shorter than him; he was still a bit short of eight feet, but I was almost seven and a half feet tall. Even if I wasn't fat, I weighed nearly a hundred pounds.
"Put me down, I can't bear to see you working so hard." I wiped the raindrops from Xie Yuancheng's face, and I guessed he was sweating too.
"No way, I'm happiest when I'm holding Ying'er, it feels like I'm in a certain place at home."
"Ugh, I'm just worried about you. You keep making up stories to fob me off. You don't even care about yourself."
"Of course I know, but Ying'er needs more care. She hasn't fully recovered after giving birth to Yu'er, and she still has to go to the battlefield with me. She jumped off a cliff and hasn't even recovered when she woke up, and now she's going to give birth to two more little ones for me~"
"I understand. I'm willing to do these things for you. You wouldn't even consider it if it were anyone else."
"So I have to take good care of you, otherwise I'll feel guilty."
Xie Yuancheng lit a fire before letting me lie on the ground. He went around the cave and said, "Ying'er, there's no place to take a bath here, and it's still raining outside. You'll have to make do."
"I'll just warm myself by the fire." Why make things so complicated? I've been through many battles.
I took off my clothes, and just as I was about to take off my undergarment, he came over and said, "Ying'er, you're too passionate. I can't handle it. You wouldn't let me get close to you on our wedding night. Luckily, I secretly held you and slept with you for one night."
"It's all because you pushed me too far. I wasn't prepared at all, so it's no wonder I was giving you a hard time!"
"Yes, it's all mine now." Xie Yuancheng's clothes were still wet. I was really worried that he would catch a chill. I kindly took off his clothes to handcuff him, and he actually schemed against me.
When I woke up, the rain outside had stopped. I was covered with his and my clothes, and Xie Yuancheng had actually gone out.
"Yuancheng~" I was just afraid a snake might crawl over, otherwise I wouldn't have called him.
"Ying'er, I need to talk to them about something. Don't worry, they've all been driven away."
He was outside, and knowing there were no snakes around, I continued lying down. The fire was still warm, and I was still tired, so I closed my eyes and slept for a while longer.
When I woke up, Xie Yuancheng was already dressing me: "I was very quiet, why didn't you sleep a little longer?"
"You'd be a pig if you kept sleeping! Move your clothes away! My clothes aren't tied properly yet, what if they come undone on the way here!"
“I deliberately didn’t fasten it.” Xie Yuancheng said matter-of-factly, “We’re so close, and you’d have to take it off after you’ve put it on, and there’s no one on the street, so what are you shy about?”
I started to rub my forehead: "I still have some pride, how can I compare to you?"
“Ying’er, we’re husband and wife, this kind of thing can’t be avoided.” Xie Yuancheng leaned closer to Wu’s belly again: “I want to see you and be with you every day, and you can’t even grant me this small request.”
