Chapter 36 Abdominal Muscles Opening a Can
Zhou Jiuzhen didn't mind, and sat down next to Ling Huanwu with the fragrant taro cake, inviting the two of them to eat.
The two brothers chatted for a long time about everyday things.
While eating, they talked about telling the farm tomorrow that they would go there to earn some work points and make a good living.
After all, life will become even more difficult once you have children.
Seeing Song Yaoyao's shifty eyes fixed on the bottle of wine on the table, Ling Huanwu couldn't help but chuckle at what mischief she was up to now.
"Sister, let me toast you with this wine."
As she spoke, Song Yaoyao poured the wine on the table and pushed it in front of Ling Huanwu, then blinked innocently, "I can't drink with you, sister, because I'm pregnant."
Ling Huanwu was holding a wine glass, but before she could speak, Zhou Jiuzhen snatched it away with a stern face, saying, "Huanhuan isn't feeling well, she can't drink."
"It's okay, I'm almost fully recovered."
Ling Huanwu smiled and took back her wine glass, turning to Zhou Shuyao and saying, "Uncle, your wife toasted me but she can't drink, so shouldn't you drink with me?"
Zhou Shuyao remained silent, neither agreeing nor disagreeing, and then drank the glass of wine in one gulp.
"don't want!"
It was too late for Song Yaoyao to stop it.
She turned her head and glared resentfully at Ling Huanwu, but smiled as she urged her to drink, "Since Shuyao has already drunk, sister, you should drink too."
Ling Huanwu was well aware of Song Yaoyao's little scheme.
Just now, Song Yaoyao recognized at a glance that this wine was the most popular divine wine that had ever sold in their Ling family pharmacy.
That medicine is much more effective than the wine my mother-in-law brews.
Song Yaoyao was convinced that Zhou Jiuzhen was impotent and wanted her to drink the aphrodisiac wine so that she would be left without a man and suffer agonizing pain all night.
But Song Yaoyao didn't know that she was eager to drink the wine, so that she could pitifully say that she had drugged him, and see if Zhou Jiuzhen, this chaste and virtuous man, would have no choice but to agree.
But she didn't want to be manipulated by Song Yaoyao, so she wanted to drag Zhou Shuyao into the mess and see how Song Yaoyao, this pregnant woman, would face this hungry wolf, Zhou Shuyao, tonight.
Without hesitation, Ling Huanwu tilted her head back, poured herself a glass of wine, and drank it all in one gulp.
unconsciously.
The dinner table for four turned into a drinking contest between Ling Huanwu and Zhou Shuyao.
It wasn't until 7 p.m., when it was dark and the bottle of wine was empty, that Zhou Shuyao reluctantly left, pulled by Song Yaoyao.
Before leaving.
Song Yaoyao, supporting the swaying Zhou Shuyao, whispered mockingly in Ling Huanwu's ear, "Ling Huanwu, let's see how you survive tonight!"
Ling Huanwu blushed, rolled her eyes, and ignored her, quickly closing the door to begin her private time with her friend.
As soon as I closed the door, I was met with Zhou Jiuzhen's icy face.
A pair of eyes, as black as obsidian forged in a mountain fire, were fixed on her, seemingly suppressing some kind of anger.
"Jiuzhen, why do I feel so hot?"
Ling Huanwu unbuttoned the knotted buttons on her cheongsam and walked towards him, feeling somewhat dizzy.
Zhou Jiuzhen's expression tightened, and he quickly caught his swaying, flushed wife, feeling her forehead. "Why is your head so hot?"
“It’s hotter here,” Ling Huanwu said, pulling his hand towards her lower abdomen, her eyes red and pitiful. “I think my sister drugged me. She just mocked you, saying I’m living like a widow, sob sob sob…”
No man can stand being told he's no good.
Unexpectedly, Zhou Jiuzhen picked up Ling Huanwu and carried her to the bed, silently wringing out a towel to wipe her face.
Ling Huanwu panicked when she saw his cold demeanor.
She hadn't expected the medicinal effects of this wine to be so potent.
I should have coaxed him to drink some earlier.
"Jiu Zhen, what should I do?"
Ling Huanwu's voice carried a hint of pleading.
Seeing that he ignored her, she reached out and poked his abs again, pouting, "What's wrong with you? What did I do to offend you?"
She said she would start stealing chickens and dogs herself.
Suddenly, she touched something hard, her voice full of surprise, "Why are you hiding it? Take it out quickly..."
That unconsciously seductive, trembling voice made her blood boil.
The next second, Zhou Jiuzhen let out a long sigh.
He rummaged in his pocket and pulled out a can of pear preserves.
"Do you want to eat? The doctor said you should eat fruits and vegetables if you're not feeling well."
Ling Huanwu felt a lump in her throat and suddenly understood what was making him angry.
This is because I'm annoyed that she drank.
She quickly took the can of pears, pretending to be very hungry, and twisted it a few times in her hands without success. Then, she opened her big, watery almond-shaped eyes and pleaded with him for help, "Honey, I can't open it. Can you use your abs to open it for me? Okay, okay?"
Zhou Jiuzhen was speechless. "How can abs be opened up?"
Although he said he couldn't open it, he still lifted his shirt and tried to do it.
A soft "bang" sounded.
As the can lid was opened, the sweet, juicy pineapple juice flowed out, slowly trickling down the defined abs and disappearing deep into his pants.
Ling Huanwu was stunned. "Husband...you're so amazing!"
As she spoke, she dipped a small amount of pear juice onto his abs with her finger, pursed her red lips a few times on her fingertip, and then shyly turned her head away.
The incessant chirping of cicadas outside made the summer heat even more unbearable.
Zhou Jiuzhen's eyes reddened as he stared intently at her. He reached out and gently stroked her moist lips, which were glistening with pear juice. His voice was husky as he said, "From now on, you're not allowed to drink alcohol, you're not allowed to show your legs when you go out, and you're not allowed to look at other men even once. Then I'll help you..."
His calloused fingertips lingered on her lips, and Ling Huanwu, oblivious to everything else, nodded vigorously, "Mmm, I'll do whatever you say, husband, but..."
Before she could finish speaking, Zhou Jiuzhen grabbed the back of her head and kissed her fiercely.
Dark shadows loomed on the walls, and the indoor temperature reached a new high.
Ling Huanwu closed her eyes, looking forward to a 400-meter race in an infinitely expanding space tomorrow.
They awaited her to stockpile food and lead the entire island's people out of hunger during the famine years.
Just as she was making grand plans for the future, a series of urgent knocks sounded at the door at just the right time.
"Sir, something's happened! Open the door quickly!"
Ling Huanwu hooked her arm around his neck and shook her head vigorously, signaling him with her eyes not to go.
Zhou Jiuzhen paused in unbuttoning his shirt, kissed the tip of her nose, and reassured her, "I'll go see what's wrong and come right back."
Ling Huanwu tugged at his clothes, watching helplessly as he slipped through her fingers, sensing something was wrong.
Sure enough, as soon as the door opened, a group of people at the door started making noise.
"Commander, it's all over! All the oysters in the sea are dead, and all the oysters in the neighboring villages on the island are dead too. All the hard work of the islanders this whole year has gone to waste!"
Oyster farming is the island's main source of livelihood.
It takes at least a year from seedlings to centralized sales, which means that the island's aquaculture farms will have no revenue for the entire year.
Before Zhou Jiuzhen could even greet Ling Huanwu in his room, the villagers grabbed him and disappeared without a trace at the door.
Ling Huanwu was left alone and helpless in the room, her hand outstretched.
At the other end of the military dormitory, Zhou Shuyao pleaded and begged, but in the end, Song Yaoyao, who was protecting her belly, pushed him out of the dormitory.
"I won't allow you to hurt the triplets in my belly! Go wash yourself by the well!"
The door slammed down in front of him, leaving Zhou Shuyao humiliated.
Zhou Shuyao ran to the well and poured about ten buckets of water over himself, but he still couldn't get rid of the heat on his body.
The sea breeze made him feel even more uncomfortable.
He moved along, intending to take a walk on the beach, but unknowingly ended up in front of his elder brother's stone house.
Looking at the light shining through the door, Zhou Shuyao pictured Ling Huanwu's alluring figure swaying gracefully by the stove at dusk.
