Chapter 9 It’s better to drink another bowl of medicine
"That beauty mark behind your ear... I actually have a slight attraction to it."
Xie Zhili spoke in a low voice, and the tips of Yu Qinghuan's ears turned red in the twilight, like cinnabar spread on rice paper, burning from the earlobe all the way to the back of the neck. Because of nervousness, her eyelashes trembled violently, casting tiny shadows under her eyes.
Xie Zhiwen also said this on his wedding night.
Xie Zhili had no idea that the woman in front of him was thinking about her past with Xie Zhiwen. He slowly clasped Yu Qinghuan's neck and brought her towards him, his warm lips almost touching the red mole.
Yu Qinghuan could feel the breath of the person next to her brushing against the side of her neck, and half of her neck felt numb.
At this moment, Sang Ru came into the room with new dishes and saw Xie Zhili's head almost touching her wife's neck. She immediately interrupted, "Second Master, would you like to ask the kitchen to add two more dishes you like?"
Xie Zhili paused, suppressed the displeasure in his eyes, and let go of Yu Qinghuan, "No need."
Yu Qinghuan felt inexplicably relieved. If Sang Ru had not come just now, she didn't know how she would react if Xie Zhili came directly to her.
Previously, I had intended to attract Xie Zhili's attention in order to facilitate the sperm lending matter, but now I am still menstruating, so why did Xie Zhili come to me like this?
I'll just lend you the sperm, I have no intention of causing any other trouble with Xie Zhiwen's brother.
She was just thinking about this when Xie Zhili next to her suddenly asked, "Do you still have stomachache today?"
Yu Qinghuan smiled, "I feel better today. I also want to thank you for the medicine you sent last night. It was a great help."
She didn't know what medicinal herbs were, but the medicine Xie Zhili sent her last night was just as bitter as the medicine Xie Zhiwen had found for her before. She felt nauseous when she swallowed it.
She only drank one bowl on the first day of each month at most, and had to hold on for the rest of the time because she really couldn't stand the bitterness.
Xie Zhili nodded: "That's good."
...
At night, Yu Qinghuan lay on the bed, holding two hot water bottles under the quilt, with fine cold sweat on his forehead, and his lips were not as rosy as they were during the day.
Sang Ru: "Madam, why don't you drink another bowl of medicine?"
Yu Qinghuan shook his head repeatedly, "No."
Sang Ru sighed, "Although this medicine is useful, it's too bitter. Could it be that all pain relievers in the world are like this?"
But her wife couldn't stand the hardship and had to swallow a bowl of bitter medicine every month.
"Bang bang" there was a knock on the door.
Yu Qinghuan looked at Sang Ru and motioned her to go and see who was outside. Could it be that something happened to Mrs. Li?
Sang Ru was somewhat reluctant and thought, in this farm, apart from the Second Master, who else would dare to knock on the door in the middle of the night without revealing their identity?
The door opened and saw someone standing outside. Sang Ru asked, "Second Master, why are you here?"
When Yu Qinghuan heard that it was Xie Zhili, he was slightly stunned. What was he doing here?
Xie Zhili ignored the maid in front of him, looked into the room, and asked Yu Qinghuan in a loud voice, "Can I come in?"
Sang Ru's eyes widened. Madam is having her period right now, and this Second Master looks like a virgin. Could it be that he thinks that women's period only lasts a short time, and that they can continue what they did last night tonight?!
Yu Qinghuan wanted to stop the man outside. Who would knock on the door and want to enter his widowed sister-in-law's house in the middle of the night?
But in the future when I stay in the Marquis' Mansion, I may have to rely on him. Moreover, the loan of seeds has not been completed, so I can't offend him.
"If you need anything, come in."
Xie Zhili walked straight past the little maid who was blocking his way, walked into the room, and walked around the screen with the food box in his hand. He saw the person on the bed lifting the quilt and about to get out of bed.
He supported Yu Qinghuan, who was obviously weak and could fall down at any time, and put the food box in his hand on the table next to him. He put his broad and strong arms around the woman's thin body and picked her up by the waist.
"!" Yu Qinghuan exclaimed and subconsciously grabbed the neck of the person in front of her with both hands.
By the time she reacted, her back was pressed against Xie Zhili's heaving chest, and her whole body was enveloped by the clean scent of bath beans mixed with the man's heat.
Yu Qinghuan could clearly feel that Xie Zhili's arms were extremely tense, and his body temperature was burning her cold knees through the fabric of her clothes.
"You...!" Yu Qinghuan reacted immediately, her ears turning slightly red. She pretended to struggle, her fingertips just brushing the back of his neck. Her legs hanging in the air revealed her snow-white skin during the struggle.
Xie Zhili looked straight ahead and said, "You're not feeling well, don't get out of bed."
He looked calm, but his breathing betrayed him, he was obviously a little flustered.
Yu Qinghuan could feel the man in front of her, the warm air was swirling around her red ears, and the friction between their clothes made a small noise as they walked.
Her voice was as thin as a mosquito, "I can walk by myself..."
Glancing at the shy look of the person in his arms, Xie Zhili curled up his thin lips and felt in a good mood.
Holding the person in his arms, Xie Zhili inexplicably didn't want to let go. He lowered his head to look at Yu Qinghuan, only to see that her ink-black hair was entangled with a few strands of his own.
The beauty in his arms, delicate and weak, with watery eyes, was so touching and pitiful that he wanted to cherish her...
Yu Qinghuan's eyes showed a struggle, as if she was forced to do so. In the end, she reluctantly accepted Xie Zhili's words, "Then I'll trouble you. Thank you."
Xie Zhili suppressed the impulse in his body and put the person in his arms back on the bed. When he was about to pull the quilt to cover Yu Qinghuan, the back of his hand touched her cold toes.
Yu Qinghuan subconsciously wanted to retract her foot, but was grabbed by the person in front of her.
Xie Zhili's warm hands slowly covered the cold soles of her feet, and his fingertips intentionally or unintentionally rubbed her snow-white toes. He felt that the woman's ten toes were round and plump, which was very adorable.
Soon, Yu Qinghuan curled up on the bed, her watery almond-shaped eyes misted over, and she bit her lower lip, leaving a tooth mark. She looked embarrassed, "...How can this happen between you and me?"
Xie Zhili's Adam's apple moved slightly, his eyes swept across her soft lips with teeth marks, and he suddenly leaned closer. His long black hair was lifted up by his bony fingers. The weak bed supported the bodies of both of them. His deep eyes looked straight at Yu Qinghuan.
"Why can't it just be like this tonight?"
Unexpectedly, she fell into those eyes whose depths could not be seen. Yu Qinghuan's jade feet, which should have been cool, suddenly became hot for no reason, and a blush crept up her face.
She turned her head away from Xie Zhili's gaze and said, "Stop talking nonsense!"
