That night, Mo Jiuye took He Zhiran in and out of the bathroom no less than seven times.
Lying back in bed, He Zhiran used her last bit of strength to bite his shoulder.
"Mo Jiuye, you're just a lustful bastard."
Bitten, Mo Jiuye was not bothered at all.
He gently took her into his arms.
"I'm sorry Zhiran, it was all my fault, I'll be more careful from now on."
After speaking, Mo Jiuye gently kissed her forehead: "Sleep, don't get up so early tomorrow, I'll take care of things outside."
Drowsiness washed over He Zhiran, she just lightly hmm-ed, and after that she didn't know anything.
Mo Jiuye had the most accurate biological clock, he would wake up before daylight.
He had also learned to look at the big clock on the wall, it was five in the morning.
Mo Jiuye got up quietly and got dressed neatly, if he didn't have to leave the space, he simply couldn't bear to wake up his sleeping little wife.
"Zhiran, send me out first, you can sleep a little longer."
Hearing Mo Jiuye's voice, He Zhiran squinted to see the time on the clock.
The willpower forged in the army in her previous life was really of no use to her this time.
But in order not to arouse other people's suspicion, He Zhiran still tried her best to invigorate herself for a few seconds, moved her thoughts, and appeared in the room in Xiling Village along with her clothes, Mo Jiuye and the rice balls.
He Zhiran lay back down on the kang to rest, and Mo Jiuye quietly left the room.
Rice ball was worried about its owner all night last night. Now that the bad guy who bullied its owner had finally left, the little guy struggled up onto the kang, sticking close to her side, trying to continue protecting its owner.
It wasn't until the sun was high in the sky that He Zhiran slowly got up.
She got dressed neatly and opened the door to walk out.
Just then, Eighth Sister-in-Law had just returned from the backyard and caught sight of her at first glance.
"Sister-in-law, I heard Ninth Brother say you were not feeling well last night, are you better now?"
"Much better already, thanks for your concern, Eighth Sister-in-Law."
He Zhiran said and then scolded Mo Jiuye in her heart.
It was all this guy's fault. She now felt like her whole body had fallen apart and she had no strength at all.
Not only that, she didn't even dare to take big steps when walking...
"That's good as long as you're fine now. I'll go heat up the breakfast I saved for you earlier." With that, Eighth Sister-in-Law had already walked into the kitchen.
He Zhiran had already gotten up late to begin with, how could she let Eighth Sister-in-Law go through the trouble of heating up food for her.
She hurried to catch up.
"Eighth Sister-in-Law, please let me do it myself!"
That's what she said, but her body was not cooperating, unable to take big steps, only clipping her legs forward, which made He Zhiran feel very annoyed.
Just as bad luck would have it, she had just taken a few steps out when she bumped into Eldest Sister-in-Law and Second Sister-in-Law.
Eldest Sister-in-Law was more attentive and noticed at a glance that He Zhiran was walking funny.
She revealed an ambiguous smile and came over to take He Zhiran's arm, and said gently: "Sister-in-law, Ninth Brother said you were uncomfortable, I thought what had happened..."
Although Second Sister-in-Law was usually rough, as someone who had gone through this before, after what Eldest Sister-in-Law had just said, she would have to be an idiot not to get it.
"Ninth Brother is really... Sister-in-law is so delicate, how could he not know to cherish jade."
After a few words from the two sisters-in-law, He Zhiran's face instantly turned red.
The ancients were too amazing!
They could even tell from this?
If she was not thick-skinned enough, she would have to find a crack in the ground and drill into it...
"Cough cough... Eldest Sister-in-Law, Second Sister-in-Law, what are you talking about? It's not what you think, I really am a little uncomfortable..."
"Tsk tsk... We're all women of experience, what can Second Sister-in-Law not see... Sister-in-law, stop pretending."
Eldest Sister-in-Law was even more excessive.
"Sister-in-law, I wonder if we'll have another big fat boy in our family next year?"
He Zhiran...
It seemed that her previous explanation had only made things worse?
The two sister-in-laws were getting more and more excited.
Just as He Zhiran was about to try to explain something, Old Lady Mo heard the movement in the yard and came out too.
Second Sister-in-Law was afraid that there would be any secrets in the family that she didn't know about, so she hurried over and said, "Mother, Ninth Brother is really capable, just wait to hold your big fat grandson next year!"
Hearing this, Old Lady Mo looked at He Zhiran with a smile.
And from time to time she would glance at her flat belly.
As if she really had a bun in the oven...
This was a situation He Zhiran had never imagined.
She kept psyching herself up in her heart:
He Zhiran, you are a modern soul, you just did a few nucleic acid tests with your husband, so what?
What's there to be shy about?
Every woman here has done this with her man.
After pumping herself up, He Zhiran finally bravely raised her head.
"Mother, daughter-in-law got a little uncomfortable last night and woke up late." She wanted to divert the topic first, as long as everyone stopped thinking about it, she wouldn't feel embarrassed.
At the same time, she scolded that culprit Mo Jiuye again in her heart:
Damn Mo Jiuye, he did bad things and disappeared without a trace, leaving her alone to face all this.
At this moment, Mo Jiuye was driving a mule cart towards the yamen.
After breakfast, he went to find the two clan chiefs, Zhao and Zhou. The purchase of land and courtyard had been settled. It would be reassuring to have the ownership transferred to him early.
Unexpectedly, while he was chatting idly with the two chiefs, he suddenly sneezed twice...
He Zhiran silently scolded Mo Jiuye, and finally felt a little more balanced. She continued taking small steps towards the kitchen.
After eating breakfast simply, she was going to go see how the rabbits in the backyard were doing.
She had just walked to the door when she bumped right into Fifth Sister-In-Law.
"Sister-in-law, I was just about to look for you. These rabbits have such a big appetite. I'm afraid the cabbage and carrots we have stored at home can only last two more days. What should we do when it runs out?"
For Fifth Sister-In-Law, who had always lived a life of having clothes put onto her and food served to her, even on the road to exile, Sister-in-Law had arranged everything, she only needed to help out with some effort.
Now that she had taken the initiative to feed the rabbits, she was already stumped on the first day.
She had just finished speaking when Fifth Elder Brother also walked over from the backyard.
And from the steady pace of Fifth Elder Brother's walking, it could be seen that his body had recovered a lot.
"Wife, don't worry about the rabbit food, I'll go to the village in a bit and ask around, buy some extra vegetables from whoever has them."
He Zhiran chimed in, "What Fifth Elder Brother said makes sense. Most peasant families will store some cabbage and carrots. Let's go to the village and ask around later."
What He Zhiran wanted to do now was to go and take the opportunity while purchasing vegetables from the peasants to pad the numbers with some vegetables from her space.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she turned around, the pain in her body reminded her that she should not go out today...
Fifth Sister-in-Law reacted quickly as well. As soon as she heard what the two of them said, she immediately grabbed Fifth Elder Brother's arm.
"Dear, let's go to the village right now and ask around."
