As a result, not only were there no marks on his body, but his body was also like a piece of warm jade, which didn't quite match his face.
Ah Li seemed embarrassed and looked away, not daring to look any longer, but in her heart she was thinking that this person was in disguise.
So, these two must also be in disguise?
Ah Li cautiously glanced at Xue Daniu and Xue Erniu, and noticed that there were indeed some marks on their faces.
At this moment, Xue Xiaoniu yelled, "Where am I injured?"
Xue Erniu laughed and said, "You don't know your elder brother. He always knows how to control his strength."
Xue Xiaoniu's attempt to play the victim in front of Ali failed him.
Xue Daniu had already washed the ribs and drained the water.
They didn't know where they got the lard from, but they didn't hesitate to use it at all.
Ali seasoned the ribs, added two eggs, a little cornstarch, and wheat flour, mixed them well, and then fried them.
Xue Erniu controlled the heat, while Xue Daniu looked at Ali with great seriousness. He then looked at Ali's lips and glared at Xue Xiaoniu.
Xue Xiaoniu knew what the two were thinking. They were just unhappy because they hadn't gotten to kiss him yet, but he had kissed them first.
She's been here for over a year, and her cooking skills are so good. If we really part ways, I'll never be able to taste this flavor again.
Anyway, Xue Xiaoniu couldn't bear to part with her; he was determined to marry her.
Once the large bowl of fried pork ribs was ready, the excess oil was poured into another large bowl. Ali then stir-fried some cabbage, followed by cooking fish ball soup.
The steamed rice in the other pot is also ready.
When the fried pork ribs, stir-fried cabbage, rice, and fish ball soup were served, the four of them ate quietly without saying much.
However, Xue Xiaoniu was supposed to sit next to Ali, but now he's sitting opposite her instead.
Xue Xiaoniu didn't object; making a living was the priority right now.
After the group finished eating, they cleaned up the dishes.
Ah Li went to take a bath first, and the three Xue brothers sat together in the courtyard.
Xue Xiaoniu said, "Li Qingruo came to our house today; this is her first time visiting."
Xue Erniu asked, "What's she doing here?"
"Who knows, luckily Xiaocao can't hear, otherwise I was worried that she would misunderstand her."
Xue Daniu said, "The plan might be brought forward; they're already preparing to take them back."
Over the past year, the emperor has become increasingly absurd, neglecting state affairs and even allowing eunuchs to interfere. He indulges in sensual pleasures, spending his days frolicking with his concubines in the harem, completely disregarding the suffering of the people and the safety of the nation.
In the imperial court, eunuchs abused their power, oppressed the people, and eliminated dissidents, causing widespread resentment throughout the court.
Xue Xiaoniu said, "I told you long ago, that man is a tyrant. Those people who came to gather information last time were just casually dealt with; they didn't seem to be doing anything seriously at all."
Xue Daniu and Xue Erniu remained silent. A group of people had indeed come to investigate earlier, but they all returned empty-handed, without finding a single clue.
Xue Xiaoniu turned around and saw that Ali had finished washing up, so he stood up and said, "Are you going out again tonight? Then I won't leave the door open for you."
Xue Xiaoniu went to fetch water and quickly finished washing up.
However, he was wrong. Xue Daniu and Xue Erniu did not leave; the two stayed at home that night.
Xue Xiaoniu wasn't very happy, but seeing Ah Li sitting quietly on the heated kang, he went over to her.
Ahri looked up at him, and he reached out and lifted his collar, silently saying, "Want to touch?"
Ah Li quickly turned her head away, not daring to look or touch.
Xue Xiaoniu coughed lightly, his face serious, and picked up his quilt, saying, "Tonight, my eldest brother and second brother probably won't let me sleep with you. I'm also worried about them sharing a room with you, so I'll go and squeeze in with them."
Ah Li didn't hear it, but Xue Erniu did.
Xue Erniu glanced into the room and saw that Xue Xiaoniu had indeed taken his quilt to Xue Daniu's side, so he stopped looking.
After Xue Daniu finished washing up and went into the house, he saw Xue Xiaoniu lying where he was sleeping. He then looked at Ali sitting on the kang with a helpless expression. He went over, picked up Xue Xiaoniu's quilt, and put it back on the kang.
"Hey bro, what are you doing?"
"Go back to sleep."
Otherwise, who knows if she'll start overthinking things.
Xue Xiaoniu said, "But doesn't my older brother dislike me getting close to Xiaocao?"
With his back to Ali and facing Xue Xiaoniu, Xue Daniu said, "As long as you really want to marry her."
Xue Xiaoniu assured him with a look of certainty, "I will definitely marry her."
Xue Erniu remained silent.
Xue Daniu sent Xue Xiaoniu back to Ali's side, because what they were about to do was to purge the court of treacherous officials and eliminate the corrupt ones, and who knew if they would succeed.
With Xue Xiaoniu protecting her, she can live a better life.
As soon as the oil lamp was extinguished, Xue Xiaoniu grabbed Ali's hand.
Ah Li didn't struggle; instead, she followed his force and touched his body.
Xue Xiaoniu leaned closer and pressed Ah Li's hand against his body repeatedly.
But that's not enough at all.
The room was quiet, and Ah Li couldn't hear the noise they were making, but Xue Xiaoniu leaned towards Ah Li.
The ambiguous sounds, and the sound of Ahri's disordered breathing.
"Xue Xiaoniu! That's enough! Don't make me throw you out."
Xue Daniu sat up; this guy still needed to be beaten up.
Xue Xiaoniu stopped, but he found that he had no say in the matter. Ah Li's hand not only did not leave his body, but it also did not stop, and her lips landed on his shoulder.
"Big brother, second brother, why don't you go out first?"
