Chapter 184 Extra: Zhou Yi x Nangong Muyan (Part 8)
Ever since he knew that Nangong Muyan was pregnant with twins, Zhou Yi has been smiling all the time.
His mood at this moment is completely different from the beginning.
When he heard the news of Nangong Muyan's pregnancy in the Prime Minister's Mansion, he was only stunned and shocked. He even felt that he was being teased by fate for a while, and he did not have any joy of being a father for the first time.
But now, after spending these days with Nangong Muyan, he has accepted the fact that this woman will be his wife, and is ready to spend his life with her.
At this time, when he heard about the child again, joy burst out from his heart like a fountain, and he felt as happy as a child.
After Li Jiu brought breakfast, Zhou Yi served porridge and peeled eggs. He didn't even let her do something as trivial as picking up chopsticks. He had to take them and put them in her hands, which made Nangong Muyan feel like a Buddhist.
"Muyan, let's go back to the capital." Zhou Yi saw that everyone had almost finished eating and said what he was thinking.
"Huh? Why so soon?"
Nangong Muyan was reluctant. They had just slept in the same bed yesterday. If they went back today, wouldn't they have to live their own lives again?
"This Sangye Town is not as good as the capital. The food, clothing and expenses are not as good as the Prime Minister's Mansion. I'm afraid I can't take good care of you."
Zhou Yi said sincerely. He could do whatever he wanted, but Nangong Muyan was a petite and delicate lady, and now she was pregnant. He was afraid that the simple food and drink in Sangye Town would make her feel wronged.
Nangong Muyan understood and grabbed his hand, saying earnestly: "It's okay, Zhou Yi, I'm not as weak as you think. Didn't Li Jiu also say that I'm fine? You take good care of me. I like it here. There are only two of us here and I want to stay here longer."
"But..."
Zhou Yi just said two words, Nangong Muyan stretched out her finger and pressed it on his lips, stopping him from continuing: "You said yesterday that you would take me to eat mulberries."
Zhou Yi obeyed helplessly: "Okay, wait for me, I'll clean up the dishes in the cafeteria, and then take you to the mulberry field."
Nangong Muyan smiled and replied "Okay".
Zhou Yi got up to clean the table and put the dishes into the lunch box. As soon as he walked out, Li Jiu came out from nowhere and snatched something from his hand, which scared him.
"Auntie, how can such a small matter bother you? I'll go, I'll go, you just accompany the young lady."
Li Jiu smiled flatteringly and walked towards the dining hall with the box.
Nangong Muyan heard the noise and came out. Looking at Li Jiu's back, she praised: "This man is quite smart!"
Zhou Yi nodded in agreement, thinking that he would give him some wine money later.
Since there was nothing to do, Zhou Yi looked at Nangong Muyan and said: "Then I'll take you to pick mulberries."
"Okay, okay!" Nangong Muyan responded with eyes full of expectation.
The two walked side by side to the mulberry field, the mountain wind blew on their faces with moisture, Zhou Yi's voice sounded slowly: "Mulberry leaves for raising silkworms must be clean and fresh, without moisture on them, and there is still dew on the mulberry leaves now, so we need to wait for about an hour before they will arrange people to pick the mulberry leaves."
Nangong Muyan looked at the empty mulberry field and thought that it was just right that no one was there.
Zhou Yi felt someone touch his hand hanging by his side, and looked to the side, Nangong Muyan was smiling, and in his puzzled eyes, she reached out and held his hand, and squeezed her fingers into his fingers, tightly clasping them together.
Zhou Yi paused, Nangong Muyan shook their hands and asked knowingly: "What's wrong?"
"Nothing."
After a moment, Zhou Yi smiled, held Nangong Muyan's hand, and continued to lead her forward.
As soon as they stepped into the mulberry field, Nangong Muyan heard a "grunting" sound in the grass beside them. Before he had time to think about it, Zhou Yi shouted over there: "Da Huang!"
"Woof!"
The grass immediately responded, and then a big yellow-backed and white-faced dog came out with its tail wagging. In the blink of an eye, it ran to their feet, barking "whine" from its mouth, and from time to time it jumped up with its front two paws suspended in the air, looking very excited.
Zhou Yi laughed and pressed the dog's head. Da Huang's ears, which were standing up energetically, flattened a little. He raised his mouth and stretched out his black tongue to lick his hand.
"Hey, don't lick it, don't lick it." Zhou Yi moved his hand away, looked at Da Huang and asked happily: "Why are you here alone?"
"Woof!
" "Where's your little sister?"
"Woof!"
"Have you eaten?"
"Woof!"
...
Nangong Muyan looked at the man and the dog, and looked so silly and complicated.
Zhou Yi chatted with Da Huang about family matters for a while, and suddenly remembered that there was someone standing next to them.
下一刻南宮沐顏看見周翼轉頭看向她,随後指了指那條姜黃色的狗,一本正經地給她介紹:“沐顏,這是大黃。”
南宮沐顏:“……哦。”
周翼又拉着南宮沐顏的手放到了狗頭上,大黃熱情得很,把毛茸茸的頭往她手心拱,黑黑的舌頭還舔了幾口她的手背。
南宮沐顏想揍人了,她是來假裝吃桑葚實則談戀愛的,不是來摸狗的!
Zhou Yi had no idea what his daughter was thinking. He looked at Da Huang, whose tail was wagging non-stop, and introduced her to him in the same serious manner: "Da Huang, this is my wife-to-be, Nangong Muyan. From now on, when you see her, treat her like you are seeing me. You are not allowed to bite her or bark at her, understand?"
The words "wife-to-be" instantly dissipated Nangong Muyan's resentment, and a little sweetness emerged in her heart that she could not help but feel.
Nangong Muyan exhaled, patted the dog's head twice, and thought with a little reluctance and a little resignation: I have really fallen for this person.
"Da Huang! Where have you been?"
A somewhat childish voice sounded behind the dense mulberry trees, and Da Huang ran over there barking, and ran back after a while, followed by a little girl about ten years old.
"Master, you are here."
The girl had two braids and a bamboo basket on her arm, which was filled with large, plump mulberries that she had just picked. She saw Zhou Yi and grinned. She raised her sleeves to wipe the sweat off her face while greeting the young master.
"Sixth sister, I knew you must be nearby." Zhou Yi also smiled and replied.
Dahuang ran back and forth between Qu Xiaoliu and Zhou Yi, wagging its tail. It also went behind Zhou Yi and Nangong Muyan and used its head to butt their legs, as if trying to drive the three people together. Qu Xiaoliu
remembered his parents' instructions to respect the Zhou family, so he was afraid that this ignorant dog would anger Zhou Yi. He quickly grabbed Dahuang's fur behind the neck, fixed the dog to his side, and gave an order with a stern face: "Sit down!"
Dahuang made a "hum" sound and sat obediently in the same place, sticking out its black tongue and panting.
Seeing that the dog was quiet, Qu Xiaoliu walked up to him, looked at Zhou Yi, and stared at Nangong Muyan's face for a while, with a look of surprise in his eyes.
"Master, are you here to pick mulberries with your mistress?"
The little girl said this innocently, but Zhou Yi's expression suddenly changed: "Who told you that she is my mistress?"
Nangong Muyan was also a little surprised. How did she become Zhou Yi's mistress?
No wonder those people looked at her so abnormally yesterday. In this world, a mistress is worse than a concubine. At least there is a deed and a sedan chair to take a concubine, but keeping a mistress is just like keeping a toy.
Zhou Yi looked serious and his tone was stern, not as gentle as usual. Qu Xiaoliu was so scared that his face turned pale.
Seeing the little girl biting her lips and her eyes moving around restlessly, Zhou Yi knew that he had scared her. At her age, she probably didn't even know what a mistress meant. She must have heard it from others.
"Sister Xiaoliu, she is my..." Zhou Yi pointed at Nangong Muyan, thought for a while and changed the words that children could understand best: "She is my wife, the mother of my child, not some concubine."
Wife, mother of the child.
Nangong Muyan wanted to laugh at an inappropriate time.
Qu Xiaoliu nodded hesitantly, and then heard Zhou Yi asked gently: "Who said she is my concubine?"
"They all said so." Qu Xiaoliu lowered his eyes, feeling a little aggrieved.
"Okay, I know, I don't blame you, go and play by yourself."
Zhou Yi patted the little girl's shoulder, and Qu Xiaoliu stuffed the basket full of mulberries hanging on his arm to him, quickly said "for the young master and the young lady to eat", and ran away with Da Huang.
After the people disappeared, Zhou Yi turned his head worriedly, but Nangong Muyan was almost smiling like a flower.
"How can you still laugh? Aren't you angry?"
Zhou Yi was really puzzled. A noble lady from the prime minister's mansion was mistaken for a mistress, but she could still laugh!
Nangong Muyan shook her head to show that she was really not angry.
As a modern person, she didn't have such a strong concept of hierarchy. The wife, concubine, and mistress were not worth worrying about. On the contrary, she was very moved by the way Zhou Yi protected her.
"Alas, you are really..."
Zhou Yi looked at Nangong Muyan and didn't know what to say.
"You don't care, but I do. I will explain it to them clearly during lunch and stop them from making up stories about you and me behind our backs."
Nangong Muyan nodded hurriedly when she heard Zhou Yi say this: "Okay, okay, I'll do whatever you say."
After making up his mind, Zhou Yi stopped bothering about it. He remembered that the purpose of coming to this mulberry field was to pick mulberries, and the basket that Qu Xiaoliu gave him was full, so there was no need to work hard, so he led people back.
When they passed by the cafeteria, there were only a few chefs preparing lunch.
Zhou Yi walked to the water tank, took Nangong Muyan to wash their hands, and rinsed the mulberries at the same time, and then went back to the room directly.
"Here, eat it."
Zhou Yi put the mulberries in front of Nangong Muyan and picked up a few to eat for fun.
When he finished eating the mulberries in his hand, he found that Nangong Muyan was sitting there motionless, staring at him eagerly, with a look of wanting to say something but not being able to.
Zhou Yi swallowed his saliva when he was looked at, trying to figure out what this young lady was thinking. After a while, he suddenly had an idea: "Do you want me to feed you?"
Nangong Muyan nodded shyly.
"Why didn't you say it earlier?" Zhou Yi didn't resist at all. He picked up a mulberry and fed it to Nangong Muyan's mouth: "Just tell me what you want. I don't have the ability to read minds. I can't guess it every time."
The dark purple mulberry touched the slightly opened lips. A soft pink tongue poked out from the lip gap, and deftly rolled the mulberry into the mouth. The red lips closed and began to chew carefully.
Zhou Yi looked at this scene, his eyes dimmed, and his fingers shrank as if they were burned.
Just now, Nangong Muyan licked his fingertips.
Nangong Muyan glanced at Zhou Yi's subtle expression change with the corner of his eye, and a deep smile flashed across his eyes.
Very good, this deliberate seduction finally had some effect.
After swallowing the sweet mulberries in her mouth, Nangong Muyan supported her head with one hand, smiled lightly at the uncomfortable Zhou Yi, and said lazily as if she had not woken up yet: "Zhou Yi, I want more."
Zhou Yi didn't say anything, but picked up mulberries one by one and fed them to Nangong Muyan, until Nangong Muyan ate half of them and said "no more", then he stopped.
Of course, except for the first one which was a temptation, she ate seriously afterwards.
After all, these mulberries are really delicious.
Nangong Muyan licked her lips contentedly, and she felt sleepy. Just when she wanted to say that she was going to bed for a while, she felt Zhou Yi's eyes glued to her face, with an interested look on his face.
"What's wrong?"
Nangong Muyan asked expectantly. Could it be that Zhou Yi found her beautiful and fell in love with her?
Zhou Yi moved closer and lowered his voice with a hint of coaxing: "Muyan, stick out your tongue."
What kind of strange request is this? I have never heard of it in my life.
Although Nangong Muyan was puzzled, Zhou Yi rarely asked her to do so. After thinking about it, she did it. As
soon as the tongue stuck out, Zhou Yi laughed "hahaha", laughing so much that Nangong Muyan looked confused.
"Hahaha...you ate too many mulberries, your tongue is black, and now you are...like rhubarb, hahaha..."
Nangong Muyan's smile froze on her face in an instant, and her silver teeth were almost bitten to pieces.
This person really...can't speak at all!
Zhou Yi couldn't stop laughing. Nangong Muyan herself couldn't see it, but he could see that not only was her tongue coating black, but even her lips were stained with purple-red juice. Coupled with the confused look on her face just now, she was really adorable.
Zhou Yi was still laughing recklessly until someone grabbed his collar, dragged him to the bed, and pressed him down on the bed.
"Mu Yan, don't be angry, you're cuter than Da Huang..."
Zhou Yi struggled to get up, but Nangong Mu Yan threw herself on him and laughed in an ambiguous way: "You dare to laugh at me? Then I'll turn you into Da Huang too."
As soon as the words fell, the person on him pressed his shoulders and kissed him fiercely.
The slippery tip of the tongue penetrated into his mouth, with the faint sweetness of mulberry. Zhou Yi was stunned for a moment, then he put one hand around the waist of the person on him, and the other hand behind her head, holding her firmly in his arms, and kissing her with his lips and tongue.
Zhou Yi's response made Nangong Muyan's kissing pause for a moment. She suddenly opened her eyes and looked at his eyes so close to her in disbelief. Her heart was filled with a kind of joy called "the clouds will finally clear and the moon will appear".
Zhou Yi kissed her back!
Does it mean that Zhou Yi completely accepted her? It was no longer her will.
"Muyan, I should also... like you."
Noticing the stunned look of the person in his arms, Zhou Yi opened his eyes, held her lips and whispered, his eyes full of love.
The two looked at each other, and Nangong Muyan could see the affection in Zhou Yi's eyes. After looking at each other for a long time, a smile spread in her eyes. She closed her eyes again and kissed him anxiously and chaotically.
Great, this person is finally hers...
