Warm as spring, this was Ke Xin’s first feeling when she entered the house.
Smokeless charcoal was lit in all the corners, making it warm and comfortable. Jasmine took off Kexin's outer cloak and then helped her sit down.
Han Ruyue smiled and looked at the two children: "How is my father-in-law?"
"Everything is fine. My mother asked me to bring you something good. She said that when you have time, you can go to the countryside for a walk and have a farm meal!"
Han Ruyue responded quickly, "Of course I will. I just discussed this with your father this afternoon. We'll invite all the relatives to come to our house during the New Year so we can celebrate together!"
Ke Xin was a bit dazed, thought for a moment, then smiled and declined on her family's behalf: "Mom, to be honest, we grow vegetables and strawberries in the greenhouse at home, and we also raise dozens of poultry and piglets. These things need to be fed every day. Besides that, we are now grinding five-spice powder whenever we have time. The restaurant can't run out of this seasoning. I guess we can only rest for a few days during the New Year."
"Secondly... I'm worried my parents won't be used to it. Plus, we have a large family and we don't know how to talk when we're all celebrating the New Year together. I'm afraid if things get noisy it might bother my parents!"
"You don't know, the Liu family has only one son for three generations. Your grandparents are both gone. We had a relative a few years ago, but he passed away last year. Now there are only a few of us left in the Liu family. We can't have a lively party even if we want to!"
After saying this, she sighed deeply, "My parents are gone, and I only have one sister left who is still the queen in the palace. I do have cousins at home, but one by one... Never mind, I won't say anymore. Just treat them all as dead!"
Ke Xin lowered her eyes. My goodness, Liu Feiyang only had an aunt and cousin who could be considered relatives. The others were... not all dead, but almost dead.
It’s so pitiful to celebrate the New Year like this!
"Why don't you... go to my parents' house for the New Year? I'll have someone clean up the yard and it'll be fine for us to live in, just a little shabby!"
Han Ruyue heard this and thought this was a good idea. Without even discussing it with Liu Xu, she made a decision immediately: "It's settled, but we have to prepare things for the New Year. We can't let my in-laws spend the money!"
Ke Xin smiled: "Mom, I'll prepare it."
As she spoke, Aunt Qiao opened the door curtain from the outside and walked in with a smile: "Madam, look at what this is?"
Han Ruyue looked at the red, her eyes almost popping out: "Oh, strawberries... They're still selling strawberries here? It's really rare!"
After saying that, he pinched one and put it in his mouth. The juice filled his mouth, and it was cool, sweet, and fragrant. "It's delicious, so delicious. Quick, give it to Xin'er and Yang'er to try!"
Nanny Qiao raised her sparse eyebrows and smiled, "These things were brought to you by the young lady's mother. They are all grown at home. Not only did they bring strawberries, but they also brought us a large basket of vegetables. I saw that the cucumbers still have thorns on them, but they are really juicy. I'll ask the cook to stir-fry some cucumbers for dinner tonight!"
This really shocked Han Ruyue: "My in-laws are really capable. They planted some strawberries in this winter and still thought of me. I am really touched. They must have worked so hard!"
Liu Feiyang nodded vigorously. Not only that, he also said, "We only collected half a basket at home. My mother-in-law was worried about you and Dad, so they brought them all to our house without even trying a single one. Before leaving, my mother-in-law said she wanted to eat some, and she'll send them back in a few days when they're ripe!"
Han Ruyue was deeply touched. Over the years, there were a few people who truly cared about her. However, it was true that they cared about her money and things, otherwise she would never have cut off contact with her cousins from her mother's side.
"My in-laws are honest people. We can't take advantage of them for nothing!" He said, looking at Aunt Qiao: "Send more gifts back. We need to visit our relatives more often."
Ke Xin also hopes that her mother can make more friends with people like her mother-in-law, so that she won't be restrained when doing business or meeting guests in the future.
In the evening, the dinner table was decorated with green, and there was an extra plate of strawberries. Even Liu, the worldly-wise man, had to admire his in-laws' ingenuity at this moment.
The greenhouses in his house in the capital were built at great expense, but his in-laws' greenhouse actually cost dozens of taels of silver, and it was a greenhouse covering an acre of land. How embarrassing it was for him!
In the evening, after returning to Yanyue Pavilion and washing up, he went to the space to study as usual.
He taught a new book, and Ke Xin studied diligently. However, the two of them were studying in this simple place, which gave Liu Feiyang an idea. He interrupted Ke Xin's learning to read and said, "My dear, what do you think? Let's build a house outside and then you move in."
satisfying:....
She had never thought about this and didn't know if it would work. "If you can move in, that would be great!" She said, frowning slightly. "But I don't know if it will work. So far, I've only brought you in!"
She brought him in because the situation was dangerous, otherwise she wouldn't have known that people could enter this space.
When Liu Feiyang heard that he was the only one who knew this secret, he was so happy that he almost lost himself in joy and kissed her moist red lips!
"I am indeed different in my wife's heart. This secret is actually known only to me!"
Ke Xin blushed and glared at him: "Don't be so frivolous. If you hadn't been injured and hiding in my room, I wouldn't have brought you in to hide. You didn't even know that the day after your assassination, an injured hunter came to my house."
Liu Feiyang had never heard of this before. He frowned and said, "And then?"
"I happened to be having my period at that time, so I pretended to have a stomachache and asked my second brother to go find a doctor. So everyone thought the blood on the quilt was mine."
He laughed: "My wife is really smart. In this way, even if the hunter spies on you, he won't be able to find anything!"
However, he just discovered something from his wife's words, that is, he entered the space not on the night of his wedding, but after he was injured.
So, when he was poisoned, he was about to die, but it was my wife who saved him with the water from the pond...
When he thought about how his life was hanging by a thread and it was his wife who risked her life to save him, his heart warmed. He held Kexin's hand tightly, his voice slightly hoarse: "My wife, Qi Lunas laughed at me for not having a wedding night yet... It's better to do it today than to wait for a day. Let's become real husband and wife today!"
All of a sudden, Ke Xin's face turned as red as a fire stick!
I didn't dare look at him. I just felt that the breath he exhaled in front of me was filled with fire. I leaned back, trying to stay away from him as much as possible.
Liu Feiyang raised his eyebrows. Want to hide?
He had said so much, there was no way he would let her continue to hide. She exerted force with her hands and stumbled into his arms. At that moment, her arms could clearly feel the heat through her clothes.
Ke Xin said weakly: "Don't..."
