an unusual fragrance coming from his house. He hurriedly got dressed and went to the kitchen.Seeing Fang Jinshu standing by the stove, smiling with great joy."I knew my sister-in-law would have somet...After returning home, it was already past midnight. The mountains were indeed cold; Fang Jinshu hurried out, her hair still wet from the shower.

Even back in the room, I still couldn't bring myself to meet Zongyu's gaze.

Zongyu thought his daughter-in-law was too shy. She hesitated standing by the bed before picking up her clothes again.

“Why don't I sleep at Zong Bai’s place tonight”

As soon as he spoke, Fang Jinshu heard that he was still planning to go find Zong Bo this late and immediately got up to call him back.

"Zongbei was already asleep. He studies quite hard, so don't bother your brother."

"Hurry up and get into bed."

It's so cold at night, why are you still standing here foolishly

Fang Jinxiu glared at him, her eyes slightly reproachful but without a trace of anger. Instead, her gaze flickered with a hint of a woman's shyness, leaving Zong Yu completely mesmerized.

What good deeds did he do in his past life that the heavens bestowed upon him such a wonderful wife.

Before meeting Fang Jinshi, Zong Yu had never even thought about getting married.

He only has his mother and siblings in his heart. He'd be content if he could live a life worthy of his family.

Zongyu nodded and went to bed, while Fang Jinshu glared at him before turning away to sleep.

As soon as she thought about her daring actions in the pond just now, she couldn't bring herself to turn and look at Zong Yu.

But Zong Yu wouldn't let her stay like this all night, an ostrich burying its head in the sand. He stretched out his arm and wrapped it around Fang Jinyu's slender waist, pulling her over.

Hold tightly in your arms.

"Hide from me"

The man's body was both strong and hot, Fang Jinshi felt like she was trapped in a furnace.

She struggled a little, and Zong Yu directly patted her buttocks under the blanket with neither lightness nor heaviness. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"Don't move."

"You still have some chill on you, staying alone inside like this will make you cold."

"My hands and feet are ice cold, but I'm not afraid of getting sick."

After finishing, Zong Yu encircled her still somewhat icy hands and feet within his own body, using his scorching heat to dispel the lingering chill from Fang Jinxiu's body.

Fang Jinshi's heart was overflowing with sweetness. She looked up and saw Zong Yu had already closed his eyes.

Well, as long as he didn't look at her, she wasn't so shy.

Fan Jinshi buried her head slightly into Zong Yu's chest, and the two lay nestled together, sleeping soundly through the night.

But the next morning, when Fang Jinshu got up, she still underestimated the influence of the cold air in the mountains. Especially since she didn't dry her hair before going home, even though the spiritual spring water usually kept her healthy, she still caught a cold.

Some people have a stuffy nose from a cold.

She was a doctor herself and didn't take this minor illness seriously. She took some medicine after getting it, then went through her usual morning routine.

She has been busy with things at home lately, so she can't afford to be idle.

This little ailment, Fang Jinshi hadn't told anyone else. At breakfast, Zong Yu was actually attentive, probably noticing that her speech had a slight nasal tone.

"Jinxiu, why has your voice changed"

Fang Jinshu didn't want Zong Yu to worry about her while working on the mountain during the day. She wasn't that dramatic, so she just shook her head.

"I'm fine. I'll have someone bring lunch to you guys in the mountains today. It's always back and forth like this, and it delays everyone's midday break."

"Well, that way the efficiency of opening up this land will be higher."

After he finished speaking, he noticed that there was a speck of rice on his wife's lips.

Don't move.

Zong Yu naturally reached out and cupped Fang Jinxiu's chin, wiping away the tear with his thumb.

The jade lotus and the cypress on the table immediately wore expressions of embarrassment.

"Brother, please be careful. There are still me and Yulian at the table in broad daylight."

"We're still young, seeing too much of this kind of scene isn't good for children."

Zongyu let out a chuckle, "Admitting you're a child now"

Zong Bai let out a sly chuckle. He wasn't afraid of his older brother at this moment, because his brother was in a good mood.

It seems like Hu Ai-lan spreading rumors hasn't caused too much of an impact on the relationship between Big Brother and his sister-in-law.

The whole family was instantly relieved, especially the Mu family.

After finishing breakfast, Zong Yu's elder brother, Zong Bai, led the team up the mountain to continue clearing land. Zong Yu went to Mr. Qin's house next door for a lesson.

There's only a pile of women left in the house.

Mu came to ask Fang Jinshu, “Jinshu, you haven’t been here these days. Hu Ailan has been going up the mountain every day to inquire about things.”

"Your aunt told me she inquired about how much money our family has, clearly she had a purpose for coming here. Why did you let her stay at home to do chores"

"Maybe we should just get rid of her."

Fang Jinshu picked an eyebrow, was Hu Ailan this anxious already

Since mother doesn't want to see her anymore, it's also time to pack up.

Just as they finished speaking, Hu Ailan arrived.

These days, she's been arriving later and later each day. soon as they arrived at the door, they saw Shen Li being driven out in disarray.Shen Li almost bumped into King Jing'an who had just stood still. Fortunately, she reacted in time and stabilized her f...
