Ke Yuanda smiled indulgently at the girl's mischievous tricks. Without her having to lift a finger, he deftly twisted the necks of the chickens and ducks and put them into the bamboo basket.
He then quickly stripped the village chief naked, loosely covered his private parts, and disdainfully tossed the holey underwear onto a tree branch.
He was furious, so he gave the village chief another beating with bamboo slats, specifically targeting his face to turn him into a pig's head!
Enraged, Ke's mother rolled up her sleeves and gave the village chief's wife a full beating.
Ke Meiyu's eyes darted around again, and she put a sleeping potion in the female educated youth's room and cast a fire-inducing talisman on each of them.
This "fire-generating talisman" is generally used for people with a cold constitution. However, for ordinary people, excessive "fire" can cause some physiological disorders, such as oily face and acne, swollen and inflamed teeth, sores in the nose and mouth, etc. These are not serious illnesses, but they are enough to make people suffer a little.
Especially for women, having acne on their face is equivalent to half disfigurement, which is enough to cause them great mental anguish!
Moreover, they feel guilty and inevitably overthink things, experiencing both physical and mental torment that is absolutely excruciating.
The fire-inducing talisman was slightly adjusted by Ke Meiyu, so that it could continue to work on them for a week.
Li Juanmei stood at the door, hesitant to go in, her eyes darting around in the dim light of the night.
Ke Meiyu smiled and asked softly, "Sister Mei, what are you looking at? Why aren't you going in yet?"
Li Juanmei blushed and said awkwardly, "I... I haven't thanked your aunt and your older brother yet."
"By the way, Auntie said you came to my house to talk about something. What was it about?"
Ke Meiyu chuckled twice before saying, "Isn't it because Sister Mei told my older brother that as long as your family agrees, you're willing to date him?"
“My older brother didn’t waste a single day; he took my mother and me to your house.”
Li Juanmei froze, then stamped her foot with a mixture of shyness and annoyance: "How could he be so stupid? Does he believe whatever I say?"
"Ah, Sister Mei, what do you mean? Are you just saying this to tease my brother?" Ke Meiyu asked suspiciously.
"I've only met your older brother twice, and we haven't even gotten to know each other yet. How could he have told my family? My parents, did they kick you out?"
She asked with some concern.
Her parents have good tempers, but they easily get emotional when it comes to her affairs, especially her marriage. Countless matchmakers, relatives, and friends have been chased out by them with brooms because of this.
What if, what if the Ke family is heartbroken, where will she find a marriage partner?
Ke Meiyu pursed her lips and shook her head. Seeing the person in the background under the eaves, she smiled and pointed at him to Li Juanmei, "Sister Mei, you want to know? Why don't you just ask my brother?"
Only then did Li Juanmei notice Ke Yuanda's figure, and she was so ashamed that she wanted to hide.
She took a deep breath, gritted her teeth, and bravely stepped forward.
Standing in front of the man, Li Juanmei looked up and realized that he was indeed tall and strong!
"Brother Ke, did you come to my house to talk about us?"
Ke Yuanda forcefully stopped the urge to take half a step back and gave a low "hmm".
"Then, what did my parents say? They didn't kick you out?" Li Juanmei was afraid that Ke Yuanda would back down, so she hurriedly added, "They are actually not bad people, they just spoil me too much and think that no one is good enough for their precious daughter."
"They know in their hearts that I will get married sooner or later. If someone comes to propose and backs down easily at the first sign of difficulty, then he is not my soulmate, nor can he be the one to weather the storms of life with me..."
Ke Yuanda chuckled, interrupting her, "Uncle and Aunt are very nice. They were just about to eat when we arrived."
"We happened to have brought some wild game with us, and I wanted to show off in front of them, so I cooked a whole table of food."
Li Juanmei opened her mouth in surprise. Before Ke Yuanda could continue, she knew perfectly well that her four family members, who had zero talent in the kitchen and couldn't even boil eggs properly or fry them with porridge, had definitely surrendered unconditionally!
"And then?" she asked cooperatively.
“Your uncle and aunt said they respect your opinion and will give us an answer when they visit you next time,” Ke Yuanda said solemnly. “So, Comrade Xiao Li, how will you reply to me?”
Li Juanmei looked up and asked seriously, "Although I am better looking, there are plenty of women who are prettier than me. Are you sure you want to give up so many other options and start dating me so early?"
Ke Yuanda nodded: "There are plenty of men in the world better than me. I should be worried about whether Comrade Xiao Li will regret it."
She couldn't help but chuckle to herself and continued, "I'm spoiled by my family and can't stand the slightest grievance. I'm not very good at housework, but wait for me. When I have a family in the future, I will definitely learn to do it seriously and share the burden with my partner."
Ke Yuanda replied, "It's alright, I can do any kind of housework around the house now."
"However, after I graduate and am assigned to the military, I may often go to sea or carry out missions, and I don't know how much time I will be able to spend with my family throughout the year."
"I'm afraid you'll suffer any injustice, but I promise that as long as I can come home, I will absolutely not let you lift a finger to do any housework!"
Li Juanmei was surprised that he had thought of this.
It is true that military wives have a tough time and need to be mentally prepared. When they, their children, and the elderly need their husbands' company the most, their husbands are protecting the country.
She lowered her head and thought for a while, then smiled and nodded heavily: "People always have to grow up. It's impossible for everything to go smoothly. You have to give up something to gain something."
"As long as you are truly good to me, then I will..."
She was too shy to open her mouth.
Ke Yuanda's face was also flushed red. "I will definitely treat you well in the future!"
After they stood in the cold wind for a while, Ke Yuanda remembered to hand her the warm milk he had prepared. "You were wronged and frightened tonight, don't think too much about it. Drink your milk and get a good night's sleep. I'll bring you something delicious tomorrow morning!"
Li Juanmei smiled and took it, sipping the sweet, warm milk while glancing at him.
The more she looked at him, the sweeter and more satisfied she felt.
This is her man, the man she will spend her life with, raise their children together, and weather all the storms of life hand in hand!
Ke Meiyu gave Li Juanmei a calming talisman, guaranteeing that she would sleep soundly through the night without any dreams.
Ke Yuanda first sent his mother and sister home, then carried Liu Zi to town and dumped him in the police station compound.
Ke Meiyu got out of the car in front of her house; the sky was already beginning to lighten.
Qin Yuanjiu opened the door upon hearing the sound, his cool eyes naturally scanning her up and down before taking her hand and leading her into the courtyard.
