However, the Crown Prince cared too much about Xiao Wanli, so Yang Cuie gave the assassins another order: to kill her in the chaos.
As a result, they were the ones who lost their lives.
?
In the kitchen, Ah Li moved her mouth, instructing Nan Sheng to add seasonings to the meat little by little.
Liu Xu also returned, carrying a basket of vegetables. She rushed in and said, "Look who we just met!"
Nan Sheng looked outside and saw Ren Pingsheng and Li Haihuai coming in together.
Nan Sheng exclaimed happily, "Brother!"
Smelling the dumpling filling, Ren Pingsheng said, "I've come at a rather opportune time; are you making dumplings?"
Liu Xu said happily, "Yes, Master, you are so lucky to have such a delicious meal."
Li Haihuai rolled up his sleeves; he wanted to help too.
Ah Li looked in his direction and said, "The dough hasn't been kneaded yet."
"Then I'll knead the dough."
"Um."
Ren Pingsheng looked at the four people in front of him: his sworn sister, his student, and his friend. He thought it was really good that things were like this.
Although this county is small, its people are simple and honest.
Throughout his life, Ren Pingsheng has witnessed nothing but harmony, peace, and prosperity.
In the streets and alleys, the old and young walk hand in hand, laughing and chatting. Children play carefree at the end of the alleys, while farmers work in the fields with contented expressions.
Liu Xu also said that in this small county town, doors are left unlocked at night and lost items are not picked up on the road.
There is also a small academy here.
Ren Pingsheng had just seen a child reciting the Three Character Classic while swaying his head. He also asked the people nearby and learned that the academy was established after Magistrate Xiao came to the area.
Ren Pingsheng was very proud because this person came from his Qingshan Academy.
After the dumplings were ready, Li Haihuai also cooked two other dishes.
After finishing their meal, Liu Xu tugged at Ali's sleeve and pulled him aside.
Ah Li looked towards Nan Sheng and, sure enough, the person was glaring at her with hostility.
Liu Xu whispered in Ah Li's ear, "Xiao Wanli, are you still not with Mr. Li?"
Ahri was surprised, "You figured that out?"
"Yes, I just saw a woman secretly giving Mr. Li something, it looked like a purse."
As Liu Xu spoke, she looked at Ali's stomach. This person was different from her. If she was really with Mr. Li, it would be very strange if she wasn't pregnant yet.
Ali raised her hand and patted Liu Xu's head, saying, "Don't worry about me. Your Nan Sheng cares about you a lot. If you keep looking at me like that, your Nan Sheng will come and chop me up with a knife."
"She wouldn't."
Liu Xu turned to look at Nan Sheng and gave her a big smile.
Nan Sheng laughed along, but when Liu Xu turned back to face Ah Li, the smile on her face disappeared.
She secretly resolved that she would learn to make dumplings as soon as possible, so that Ah Xu would have no excuse to come looking for this person again.
At this moment, Li Haihuai finished clearing away the dishes and chopsticks, rolled up his sleeves, and came out. He walked to Ali's side and said, "Master Ren will also be staying here tonight. I'll go and help him tidy up his room."
Ahri nodded and said, "Okay."
Li Haihuai glanced at Liu Xu; the two of them were standing too close together.
That Nan Sheng is really patient. Is she even a woman anymore? Her own woman is practically clinging to his woman, and she doesn't even come over and take her away!
After eating and drinking his fill, Ren Pingsheng observed the four people in front of him, each with their own thoughts, and found it quite interesting.
Afterwards, Nan Sheng led Liu Xu back to their room.
Ali returned to her and Li Haihuai's room and was making the bed when Li Haihuai hugged her from behind, leaned close to her ear, and said, "I didn't accept anything from anyone today."
"Um."
"And, my wife, shouldn't we have a child?"
Liu Xu's words and her gaze made him very unhappy.
Ali was pressed down onto the bed by Li Haihuai, and he easily untied her belt.
Li Haihuai's lips landed on Ah Li's neck. He wanted to leave a mark so that person could see it clearly tomorrow, proving that the couple's relationship was going well.
Three years ago, when the transfer order came down, there was a lot to do in this small county. In order to make a name for herself, Ali didn’t plan to have Zai Zai come earlier.
Now, looking at the passionate man in front of her, Ahri thought, "Let's have the baby."
"Then you'll have to work hard, husband. Children don't just appear out of nowhere."
Ahri hugged him tightly, her lips landing on his heart.
Li Haihuai's breathing became heavier and heavier. He hugged Ah Li tightly, leaving no gap between them.
?
The next day, Liu Xu noticed the marks on Ali's neck and glared at Li Haihuai with great dissatisfaction, "This guy is inhuman, is he a dog?"
Ah Li raised her hand to touch her neck, smiled, and handed the dumpling filling seasoning recipe she had written to Nan Sheng, saying, "My husband was worried you would forget, so he asked me to write it down."
Nan Sheng took it; it was the order in which she prepared the seasonings yesterday, simple and clear. "Thank you."
Li Haihuai snorted, thinking that this would get rid of the two of them sooner.
Ren Pingsheng would go out for a stroll from time to time, and his favorite place was this small academy.
The academy wasn't large, but all the children there loved reading.
?
Several years later...
Nan Sheng still brought Liu Xu over from time to time.
Now, she's not here for the food; she's here to see Xiao Wanli's children, and she's even become their godmother.
Holding her tiny, sweet, and soft baby, she could be happy all day long.
Liu Xu also said that when Nan Sheng retires and returns to her hometown, they must come and become neighbors with Xiao Wanli.
Li Haihuai admitted that he had miscalculated; this man simply wanted to be best friends with his wife for life.
Nan Sheng has come to terms with it; not everyone in this world can accept their relationship.
Liu Xu also encountered some people who spoke unpleasantly or looked down on her.
However, after writing a letter to Xiao Wanli and receiving a reply, she was full of love for her again and would even take action to teach those who were gossiping about them a lesson.
Her husband, Nan Sheng, has been promoted to the position of Minister of the Court of Judicial Review. If she wants to deal with them, it's just a matter of lifting a finger.
