Nan held her belly in both hands, as if looking at a child who was being unreasonable. So he was picking a fight with her after his advances were rejected.
"But I'm pregnant." Lin Yinan had little experience in this area.
Yun Mo was stunned for a moment, then overjoyed. He stepped forward and pulled her into his arms, whispering in her ear, "So you agree? I asked Doctor Lü, and he said that since it's been three months, there shouldn't be any problems if we're gentle."
His warm breath brushed against her ear, and a strange warmth washed over her.
Yun Mo quickly released her, but the hand that was holding her shoulder tightened a little. His Adam's apple bobbed involuntarily, and his eyes were full of fervor and anticipation.
His burning kiss landed immediately, his lips and tongue roaming in her mouth.
Lin Yinan felt as if she had been struck by an electric current; her heart was pounding, and the little thing inside her belly was moving too.
Just as she felt she was about to suffocate, Yun Mo released her.
Gazing at her luscious red lips, he felt a surge of desire and quickly gave her a light peck, saying in a hoarse voice, "Will you wait for me tonight?"
Lin Yinan nodded obediently, feeling a little shy.
Having received her permission, Yun Mo was in a good mood. "I'll go out and get busy now."
After Yun Mo left, Lin Yinan was in a state of confusion and sat at her desk for a long time, unable to calm down.
So she simply put down her book, strolled out of the house, and walked along the garden path to the backyard.
As she walked into a dense bamboo forest, Yunying's voice came from the bamboo forest, carrying a hint of coquetry.
Is it because of spring?
"This thing looks like a stick, it's hard as a rock, will it break my teeth?"
"No, I've already peeled it. Don't worry, it's soft when you bite into it. Try it, it's very sweet."
Wait, isn't that the slightly flamboyant Yun Er?
How did they get here?
Not wanting to disturb the two, Lin Yinan tiptoed around and started to walk back.
A figure flashed before her eyes, and suddenly a dagger was held to her neck.
"What? Trying to kill me to silence me?" Lin Yinan said mockingly. "Did I interrupt your good time?"
Upon seeing who it was, Yun Er's bright peach blossom eyes widened in surprise. She hurriedly sheathed her dagger, bowed, and said, "Third Madam, my apologies."
Upon hearing Lin Yinan's voice, Yun Ying ran out from the depths of the bamboo forest, her fair face flushed.
"Third Sister-in-law, what are you doing here?"
"What a coincidence, I was just bored and came here for a walk."
Lin Yinan's gaze swept back between the two of them, taking them in one look.
Yunying's already flushed face turned even redder, and she lowered her head somewhat awkwardly.
Suddenly, Lin Yinan's gaze was drawn to what she was holding in her hand, if she wasn't mistaken.
That's sugarcane!
Lin Yinan's expression turned serious. "Where did you get that thing in your hand?"
Yun Ying looked helplessly at Yun Er.
Yun Er cleared his throat and said calmly, "Reporting to Third Madam, this is what my brothers and I found while patrolling the mountain. It tastes very sweet. If Third Madam wants some, I will go and get more."
"Are there many?" Lin Yinan asked.
"It was found in a valley on the mountain, there was a whole patch of it." Yun Er gestured with his hands.
Sugarcane is sweet and juicy, containing a variety of nutrients needed by the human body. It can replenish energy, regulate the spleen and stomach, and can also be used to extract sugar.
Lin Yinan was very interested in hearing this, and remembered that this season was the time to plant sugarcane, so she could get some to grow.
Is it far from here?
Yun Er didn't understand why she asked this, so he could only honestly reply, "It's a bit far, I'm afraid you can't go."
"Third Sister-in-law, what's the use of this?" Yunying knew that her third sister-in-law must have a great use for it.
Lin Yinan said, "I've seen it in a book before. This thing is called sugarcane. It's a kind of fruit that you eat by its stem. Besides eating it this way, it can also be used to make sugar."
Yunying quickly took a bite, and it was sweet. She happily said to Yun Er, "It's really sweet, Yun Er, go and pick more."
Lin Yinan hurriedly said, "Remember that the sugarcane that has already grown can be pulled up by the roots. Don't damage the smaller ones or their roots. Let them continue to grow in the ground, and they can be harvested again at the end of the year."
"Okay, I'll go right away," Yun Er readily agreed.
His captivating eyes darted around, his gaze sweeping over Lin Yinan's smooth, fair face before finally settling on her rosy lips.
Before leaving, he gave a cryptic smile.
Lin Yinan was quick-witted; how could she not know what he was thinking?
"Third Sister-in-law, would you like some?" Yunying, who was standing next to her, held up the sugarcane in her hand.
Lin Yinan couldn't bear to take away what someone else loved, so she said, "No, you eat it."
Night falls.
The surrounding area is a vast plain, filled with the sounds of frogs and insects.
The crescent moon hangs like a hook; outside the window, the shadows of trees sway gently, and all around is quiet.
Lin Yinan lay limp on the bed, feeling weak and sleepy. Her legs and hands ached. She couldn't remember how many times this had happened. She was so tired that she didn't even want to move her fingers. She felt like a soft little lamb, letting Yun Mo wipe the dirt off her hands with a cloth.
After cleaning her up, Yun Mo quickly lay down, pulled Lin Yinan into his arms, and kissed her sleeping face.
"Anan, you're so kind!"
For three consecutive days, Yun Mo went out in high spirits.
Qianxia, who was helping Lin Yinan change her clothes, looked worried. She and Qianwu didn't know about the incident where their son-in-law had run around in the middle of the night. However, the marks on the girl's body were getting worse every day, so it was hard for them not to know.
“Miss…” Qianxia hesitated before speaking.
Lin Yinan knew what she was worried about. "Don't worry, I'm fine."
Her hands were just very sore, but the marks on her body were not a big problem.
Lin Yinan had the sugarcane that Yun Er and his men carried back cut off from the seventh to ninth nodes at the top and planted separately in a plot of land in the field.
She carries a notebook with her every day, managing everything meticulously.
On the fourth day, Yun Mo led the purchasing team out again.
Lin Yinan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Finally, she could get a good night's sleep. Heaven knows how painful it was to have a stick forced into her hand while she slept these past few days.
She was finding it hard to resist this man who had just started eating meat.
A week after the purchasing team left, the weather changed drastically.
Daytime was like night, with a fierce wind howling incessantly, making the dilapidated doors and windows of the entire Longtan County rattle and clang.
Thunder rumbled, lightning ripped across the sky, and hailstones pelted the rooftops and ground like pebbles.
Lightning twisted and roared in the night, illuminating everything around it.
After a long while, the hail stopped, and a torrential downpour began.
Rainwater dripped through the holes in the roof, which had been shattered by hail. It was raining heavily outside, and drizzling inside.
Lin Yinan's room was filled with pots and pans of all sizes to catch the rain, and the floor was muddy from the rain.
Looking at the torrential rain outside, Lin Yinan subconsciously touched her belly, worried about where Yun Mo and the others who had gone out were, and whether they had found shelter from the rain.
"Miss, the rain is blowing in, be careful not to catch a cold." Qianxia draped a coat over her shoulders.
Lin Yinan seemed unmoved, staring blankly outside in a daze.
Suddenly, the door to the room was pushed open forcefully from the outside, and a dark figure stood in the doorway.
