Beautiful Peasant Girl: The Young Marquis's Beloved

Chapter 144: Long separation is better than newlyweds

After Liu Xu left, only the couple and two ignorant babies were left in the room.

A long separation is better than a new marriage. Under the candlelight, his wife's skin is as white as cream, and Liu Donglai looks at her with a look of infatuation.

Xu Ruolan's face turned red as she was stared at. She mumbled, "Go wash up first. I'll put the child to sleep."

Aunt Lin is a capable person. Seeing the young lady return to the room, she immediately asked someone to prepare hot water.

Thinking that her husband might not use things at home, she hugged the two children inside, covered them with a quilt, and personally led them to the bathroom.

Looking at everything inside and listening to his wife's explanation, Liu Donglai was surprised and proud. His Baoer is so smart!

When Liu Donglai came out after washing up, Xu Ruolan had just put the two little ones who had eaten and fallen asleep down.

In the man's eyes, his wife looked even more beautiful than before. There was no one around, and his eyes were burning as if they were on fire.

Xu Ruolan's face turned red when he looked at her, and the blush quickly spread to her neck.

Seeing his wife's charming appearance, Liu Donglai's heart moved. He walked over gently, hugged Xu Ruolan from behind, and whispered softly in her ear: "Yueyue, I miss you so much."

Xu Ruolan's body suddenly stiffened, and the heat from her back made her cheeks redder than the sunset. She lowered her head slightly, not daring to look her husband in the eye. Her eyes were full of shyness, and her heartbeat was like a drum, as if it was about to jump out of her chest.

Xu Ruolan bit her lower lip gently, looking so innocent and charming that people couldn't help but want to love her. She hesitated and said, "The children are still here."

Liu Donglai chuckled and said softly, "They are sleeping soundly and will not disturb us."

After saying that, he gently picked up Xu Ruolan and walked towards the bed inside. The candlelight was flickering and the room was full of warmth.

That night, the main room asked for water three times and did not quiet down until the early morning.

The next morning, Liu Donglai was awakened by the noise in the yard.

He looked at his sweet wife sleeping in his arms, bent down and kissed her forehead, then gently pulled his arms away.

Xu Ruolan gave a warning, turned over and continued to sleep. Seeing this, Liu Donglai smiled, his eyes full of tenderness and satisfaction.

When he walked out of the door refreshed, he saw his daughter in tight clothes, doing horse stance and punching in the yard.

The little figure was full of energy and determination. The small strands of hair on his forehead fluttered slightly as he punched. Fine beads of sweat were oozing out of his forehead. His little face was flushed, but he didn't look tired at all.

A young woman occasionally gave instructions, and there was a little girl holding a dry branch and practicing swordsmanship next to her. I guess this was Madam Ye, the master that the young general had found for his daughter, and the girl was her daughter Han Duoduo.

Thinking of this, he raised his eyes to the west wing and found that the young general had already gotten up and was leaning against the door frame looking at the three masters and apprentices in the yard.

Noticing his gaze, Mu Lingxuan turned his head, nodded slightly, and then turned his gaze back.

Before falling asleep last night, his wife told him everything that had happened in the past six months, including her daughter's adventure.

He was both surprised and sad. If his daughter had not had that adventure, he would probably not have seen them by now, right?

Thinking of this, I felt even more resentful towards my parents and my eldest brother's family.

Although his wife and children are living a better life now, the whole family will never forget the hurt they once suffered.

His wife told him not to pursue the matter any further, saying that it was also his daughter's wish, so he would listen to her. However, if they did not repent... Humph, don't blame him for not considering blood ties. Even if he was called an unfilial son, he would seek justice for his wife and children!

Liu Xu was unaware of the thoughts in his father's mind and only focused on practicing his boxing. He did not stop until his master told him to stop, then he stood up and naturally saw Liu Donglai and Mu Lingxuan.

After a full hour, his back was already wet, so Liu Xu could only say hello briefly and go back to the house to wash up.

Ye Miaoyin and her daughter nodded slightly and went back to the house first.

Like Liu Xu, those who get up early to practice martial arts include Qiao Yun and Liu Fukang in the backyard, as well as the guards who practice martial arts on a daily basis.

They just got up earlier because they had to serve their masters. Liu Fukang got up earlier because his master (He Lei) got up earlier.

As Liu Xu came out after washing up, the masters and guests in the courtyard got up one after another, and Xu Ruolan was no exception.

She was awakened by the crying of the two little ones. Originally, Liu Donglai went in to comfort them immediately after hearing the crying, but he had no food, and the two little ones didn't listen.

Seeing the two little ones eating happily, Liu Donglai couldn't help swallowing his saliva. Xu Ruolan saw him and glared at him in embarrassment.

As a result, Liu Donglai's eyes darkened, and he felt like a cat's claw in his heart, wishing he could throw the two piers away and let himself take over.

The two Dun had no idea that they had been rejected by their own father.

Baji, baji, gulp, gulp, the world is big, but eating is the most important thing!

As soon as the morning hour arrived, Liu Donglai and Mu Lingxuan left the yard without eating.

Outside the gate of the Liu family compound, those who returned home last night were now gathered in the open space at the entrance.

"I will stay in Liujia Village for three days. You can reunite with your family during these three days. But during the day, Captain Liu will take you into the mountains to hunt! After returning to the North, it will be up to you guys to decide how many days you can eat meat!"

Mu Lingxuan looked around at everyone and saw that they were all excited. He added with a malicious tone:

"Liujia Village and Beilinpo are your territories. If your harvest is not as good as that of Captain Yao and his men, I don't know how you will get mushrooms in the future..."

The words were not yet finished, but the meaning was clear. If they were not as good as Captain Yao and his men, they would have no part in picking mushrooms in the future!

How can that be possible! Although it is impossible for them to have their turn every month, even if it is every few months, it will be fine! Besides, the swords on the battlefield are blind, who knows if they will stay on the battlefield one day.

So, as soon as Mu Lingxuan said to disband, everyone hurried home to eat and grab their weapons.

Are you kidding? Half of them were hunters before joining the army, and they were in their own territory. How could they lose to those outsiders?

When Liu Xu learned that his father was going to take people into the mountains to hunt, and that he was going to compete with Captain Yao and his men to see who could hunt more prey, he could not help but look at Mu Lingxuan speechlessly. This man was really cunning.

She quickly asked someone to fetch the bows and arrows at home. She had bought two bows herself before, and later Chang Yifei sent three more. In addition, when the old man separated from the eldest wife, he also sent his father's original bows. Now there are six bows in the house, let her father take them all!

As for those uncles, aunts and brothers, some of them had equipment at home before, so they were much more fully equipped than Uncle Yao and his friends.

Liu Donglai quickly ate his breakfast, took the bow brought by the servant, touched his daughter's little head with satisfaction, and went out.

Not long after her father left, Liu Xu saw her mother and discovered that her mother's walking posture was not right. She raised her eyebrows and pretended nothing had happened and went about her own business.

When Liu Changshun came over happily, he heard that his cousin had taken people into the mountains to hunt, so he had to go back.
