What are you doing?

Qian Jingui looked up, Luo Manman's waist was like a willow under the moonlight, her lips were red and her teeth were white, the night wind was blowing her hair, she looked extremely elegant.

The two of them walked along the small village path quietly. Qian Jingui especially enjoyed this tranquil and beautiful atmosphere, hoping that time would stop just like that.

"Alright then." When Luo Manman turned around, he heard him say, "Wait a moment?"

"Why?" Seeing Qian Jingui's tall and straight figure walking over, with his big hands about to brush against her cheeks, Luo Manman took a step back in alarm: "You, what are you doing?"

Her precautions caused Qian Jingui's heart to turn cold. After a long time, he said with a heartbroken voice, "There's dust on your face."

Luo Manman followed the direction he pointed and wiped her face. There was indeed dust, probably from the dust that flew out from the cave when she was boiling water: "Alright, hurry up and go back, don't make the cuckoo wait too long."

Seeing Qian Jingui stupefied on the spot, Luo Manman turned around and left first. The clear and cold moonlight illuminated her back, concealing her blurry figure.

When he got back to the Du Family's residence, he saw that cuckoo standing at the entrance of the courtyard, looking forward to his arrival.

Presumably, she had just finished her bath, and the air was filled with her fragrance. Her jet-black hair casually draped over her shoulders, and it was somewhat moist. It gave her a unique charm.

Seeing Qian Jingui walk in, the cuckoo girl's face lit up. She grabbed Qian Jingui's arm and shook it, then said coquettishly: "Husband, where did you go in the middle of the night? Let me have a good look? "

"The air in the village is nice. How about taking a walk in the moonlight at night?"

"Then why didn't you call me?"

"Weren't you chatting with your father-in-law and mother-in-law?"

"Look at how you're eating, it's as if I've ignored you." The cuckoo gave him a coquettish look and pounded his chest, scratching rather than hitting him.

"It's getting late, let's go rest." Qian Jingui said as she walked inside, only to see that the cuckoo was still warm and enthusiastic as usual, rushing over and grabbing his hand as she headed towards her bedroom.

Her enthusiasm made Qian Jingui frown: "cuckoo, don't be like this."

"Hehe, are you in my home? Sorry about that …" "Don't be afraid. Father, Mother, and the others won't listen to those from the corner of the wall …"

She did not see Qian Jingui's reply, "Hubby, what's wrong with you? I want a child, give it to me, give it to me."

Seeing the exquisite face in front of him, Qian Jingui's black eyes were in a daze, unknowingly overlapping with her pretty face.

"Manman." He mumbled softly, and cuckoo looked up with her bright eyes and asked: "Eh? "Husband, what did you say? …"

Halfway through his words, he suddenly stopped. His red lips had already been sealed.

Over the months and nights, the cuckoo had fallen deeply in love with this handsome man, but he could not fathom it. Sometimes he would be warm to her, sometimes he would be cold to her.

She was inwardly conflicted, but it seemed as if she had returned to her new marriage tonight.

She muttered to herself as she looked at Qian Jingui with infatuation in her phoenix eyes, "Jindan [1], I love you so much …"

Qian Jingui closed her eyes, her jade-like voice overflowing with deep love.

The cuckoo girl's face changed, her body was struck by the lightning: "What? Did she hear wrong? Who is Manman? "

Her nails dug into Qian Jingui's skin, who the heck was this woman called Manman?

It was said that it was normal for large family to marry a second or third wife, but she could not accept it.

Only if she was pregnant would she be able to keep her seat.

The scene changed to the Xiao Family's bedroom. When Luo Manman returned to his room, she saw Xiao Yiming sitting in front of the pit, looking left and right. Seeing his wife return, his originally lonely face immediately lit up with hope.

He hurriedly jumped onto one leg and said, "Wifey, you're finally back."

"It sounds like I'm not coming back." Luo Manman helped him to go over to the pit, and covered him with a thin blanket: "You've been waiting a long time, why aren't you sleeping yet?"

"My wife is not sleeping at my place. Only by seeing you will I feel at ease!"

"Alright, let's go to bed early." Luo Manman lightly patted his shoulder, covered him up with the blanket, and then pinched the corners of his blanket. After that, Luo Manman took off his jacket and slept in it. Xiao Yiming did not say anything as he looked at her with his black eyes.

Seeing that she was lying down, he immediately grabbed her waist and hugged her tightly. Seeing that Luo Manman was moving, he immediately said pitifully: "My wife, only by hugging you can I sleep." Luo Manman, on the other hand, had a face full of black lines. Seeing that his legs were inconvenient, he was free to do as he pleased. After a busy day, Luo Manman naturally fell asleep right next to his chest. However, Xiao Yiming kept staring at her sleeping face from time to time, and spent the entire night thinking back to the conversation between Qian Jingui and her. For two days in a row, the Xiao family's life was peaceful and fulfilling. After days of training, Xiao Niang's waist was much better. Although it was still painful, cooking food was not a problem. In the morning, Xiao Niang had already prepared some porridge and cabbages. After eating breakfast and keeping it warm for a while, he went to the sundry room and started searching. The items stored in the storage room occupied half of the room, and she had enough to eat.

Two of the baskets still contained the finished products of the wood products that Xiao Yiming had made, and some other similar items.

There were also the few pieces of fabric that he and his daughter-in-law had bought in the town. Three pieces of silk of different colors were tightly wrapped in cloth. Since she wasn't busy during this period of time, she rushed a few sets of clothes out. He took out a piece of cloth from the three pieces of cloth with a ruler. This piece of cloth could be used to make several sets of clothes. After Xiao Niang came out carrying a torn piece of cloth, he passed by Xiao Yiming's room. Seeing that the wooden door was shut tight, he thought to himself that the two of them were still in bed. Returning to his own room, Xiao Niang took out a set of needle and thread from a wooden cabinet. Since young, the clothes of his two sons were made by her, and this time, the needle and thread were also made by the car door. Xiao Niang put the ring on his index finger, went to the courtyard and collected the clothes Luo Manman had washed yesterday, then used two pieces of cloth to make size models for reference. Being a daughter-in-law first could be considered as the sincerity of an apology. He spread the old clothes flat on kang and measured the size. Then, he picked up the scissors and cut the light purple cloth. The next step was to thread the needles and thread the fabric, Xiao Niang's technique was very skilled.

At this rate, he would be able to make a set of clothes in less than two days.

Recalling the beauty of the new clothes that Luo Manman had put on, the corners of her mouth could not help but curl into a smile. Xiao Yiming and Luo Manman had already finished washing up and as they lifted the lid of the table, there was a bowl of pickled vegetables and a bowl of cold mixed cucumber.

The pot was filled with hot porridge. Luo Manman had basically taken care of all the household chores these few days, so what was this today? "Yiming, looks like your mother got up to make breakfast." "Yeah, since mom can cook breakfast, it means her waist is better." Xiao Yiming found a stool to sit on and immediately saw Luo Manman saying: "I'm still a little worried, go and ask inside Xiao Niang's house, if your waist is not clean, then it's better to not cook, I'll do these chores."

"My wife, why don't you take a look for yourself? Are you still angry with your mother? " Xiao Yiming asked carefully.

There must be a disagreement between his mother and his daughter-in-law. He had to act like the peacemaker.

"I …" Luo Manman bit her lips and did not finish the sentence. Xiao Yiming knew that she could not rush this matter, she had to take things slowly, and without forcing anything, tiptoed back into the house.

His legs were much better now. Although he couldn't completely land, he didn't use any strength. It wasn't a big problem walking lightly on his feet, and furthermore, he only had to walk a few steps at home.

Xiao Yiming stood outside the door and saw Xiao Niang sitting by the window, facing the bright light outside, skillfully sewing new clothes.

This piece of fabric was a beautiful light purple color and was embroidered with a faint yet elegant crescent moon design. This was for mother to help her daughter-in-law make new clothes.

Xiao Niang lowered his eyes, completely focused on the clothes in his hands, not noticing a certain someone's approach.

He raised his head and rubbed his sore eyes when a shadow loomed over him. He said in surprise, "Yi Ming, you're awake. Have you used breakfast?"

"Is it about to be used? "It's my daughter-in-law who asked me to come take a look. Mother, is your waist any better? If it's not, then don't work so hard."

"Look at what you're saying, Mother only has a bad waist and is not crippled. She's much better, and she's not tired from doing all this. We can't just let Manman do everything and let her suffer alone."

Xiao Niang pitied his daughter-in-law's heart, but sometimes, her ears were soft, and it was easy for her to listen to gossip.

"If my wife heard this, she would definitely be happy, and when she sees the new clothes that you've made for her, she would definitely be happy."

Xiao Yiming gestured with the new clothes. Mother's cooking skills were getting better and better, the seams were so exquisite, and the style was also so novel, it was obvious that she spent quite a bit of effort to make them, her daughter-in-law would definitely like them.

"As long as she likes it." When Xiao Niang heard this, the smile on his face became even more pronounced, and a lot of the knots in his heart became clear.

Village Head Du Family

The sun hung high up in the sky as the bright sunlight shone through the cracks in the window, shining in the long pit with warmth. The cuckoo wailed as it stretched its body before it woke up.
