"This is a reward for my husband's hard work in his studies." Wen Nan blinked slightly. Her eyes shone like stars.
Wen Nan was wearing a pink robe, and a fluffy cloak tightly wrapped around her small head, revealing only her high nose bridge and pink lips.
And those almond-shaped eyes... seemingly capable of melting everything.
Lu Yanqing lowered his head and saw the hot water bottle lying quietly in his palm.
As the coldness at my fingertips disappeared... there seemed to be something else as well.
Lu Yanqing lowered his head slightly, "Our family isn't well-off to begin with, why do you need to spend money..."
"I said it's a reward." Wen Nan interrupted Lu Yanqing before he could finish speaking, pursing her lips.
Lu Yanqing didn't say anything more. He reached out and touched Wen Nan's head as if by some strange impulse.
But patting it lightly twice... seems like overstepping one's bounds.
Then he withdrew his hand without making a sound.
"Thank you." The man's voice was clear and melodious, just two words, but they were like a stream flowing through the mountains.
Wen Nan reached out and took Lu Yanqing's arm.
Lu Yanqing felt somewhat uneasy. He tried to withdraw subtly, but Wen Nan refused to let him go no matter what.
She clung tightly to Lu Yanqing's arm like an octopus.
Lu Yanqing sighed, and seeing that he couldn't get rid of it, he forcibly suppressed the strange feeling in his heart.
He let Wen Nan reach out and take his arm.
But soon... Lu Yanqing frowned and looked at Wen Nan, asking seriously, "Wasn't the money from last time already used up while I was sick?"
Lu Yanqing weighed the hot water bottle in his hand.
"So...where did this come from?"
Wen Nan paused slightly. She hadn't yet figured out how to tell Lu Yanqing...
"What I earned today." Wen Nan swallowed hard.
I felt inexplicably guilty.
But she can't say she killed a python, can she?
What should she do if Lu Yanqing becomes afraid of her bloodlust in the future?
In just a few breaths, Wen Nan's mind was racing with a thousand thoughts.
Lu Yanqing nodded, and seeing that Wen Nan was unwilling to say more, he didn't ask any further questions.
He... never asked about it before, and now... he should do the same as before.
859 had already seen through everything.
Even if Wen Nan doesn't say it, the embroiderer will definitely say it.
Lu Yanqing will find out sooner or later.
The two returned to Lotus Village, where all the lights were off, but as they approached the door... it was crowded and chaotic...
A crowd of villagers had gathered in front of Wen Nan's house, forming a large circle as if they were looking at some rare object.
At this hour... why would anyone be gathered at Wen Nan's doorstep?
Lu Yanqing glanced at Wen Nan, who also had the same question in his eyes.
The two walked in... and only then did they hear the sounds coming from inside.
"Young master...who are you waiting for here? I live over there. Would you like to come over and have a drink of water?" Aunt Zhao coaxed the four-year-old child.
The four-year-old child, dressed in a white brocade robe, was exquisitely beautiful... extremely cute, with a blush on his nose from the cold wind.
His gaze remained fixed on Wen Nan's wooden house for an entire moment.
Seemingly remembering something, she lowered her head, hiding the disappointment in her eyes.
Aunt Zhao had been eyeing the things on the child's body for a long time.
There was only one child... exuding an air of nobility, Aunt Zhao couldn't wait to snatch the child back to her own house.
When the adults come looking for her, she can still ask for some money.
Of course, besides Aunt Zhao, many other people around her had the same idea.
Everyone was looking at the child in front of them.
Suddenly, a wet nurse walked over from not far away and scolded the person in front of her.
"What business is it of yours what my young master has with you? Get out of here!" The wet nurse was well-dressed, holding a handkerchief in her hand, looking at everyone with an arrogant air.
