The Virgin Mary in the Book: I Decide My Life with Two Swords

Cangyue Country's Nanlai Paradise

The second day of March was the happiest night for Ye Ling since she came to the world of the book.

Jiuyou refused to lie down after finishing his porridge: "It's been half a year, I don't want to sleep, I want to get out of bed..."

"No," Ye Ling firmly disagreed. "You can stay awake, but you are absolutely not allowed to get out of bed. Can you feel your legs? Try to move them."

Jiuyou tested his leg: "I have feeling and can move, but... it feels a little stiff."

"You haven't moved for half a year, it would be strange if you weren't stiff." Ye Ling continued to massage his legs.

"Jiuyou" Mengmeng flew around celebrating: "You know, for the past six months, the master has taken good care of you every day, giving you massages, transferring your internal energy to ensure your martial arts skills are not wasted, and even washing you..."

"Shut up and get out!" Ye Ling quickly interrupted Meng Meng: "Junior brother, don't listen to its nonsense. Elves are brainless."

Meng Meng was so angry when she heard this: "Master, I have a brain. I have also been serving Jiuyou for the past six months!"

"That's true. Mengmeng has had a hard time too."

"Senior Sister, I... I don't want to go out and see anyone before I recover, so..." Jiuyou didn't want anyone to see him in such a mess.

Ye Ling smiled slightly: "Don't worry, I won't tell them. When you can recover as before, we will go out and scare these people to death."

"Okay, I like this space. In here, I can follow you at any time and never leave."

"Jiuyou, you are right. The master has kept you by his side for the past six months and has never left you for a second," said Mengmeng.

At this moment, Jiuyou felt that this serious injury was worth it, as it would bring him a happy life for the rest of his life.

Ye Ling looked up at Jiu You: "Why aren't you talking? Are you feeling unwell?"

Jiuyou's gaze fell on Ye Ling's hand: "What's wrong with your hand?"

"Nothing." Ye Ling immediately changed the subject: "If you feel uncomfortable, tell me quickly."

"I want to drink water"

"I'll get it for you." Ye Ling immediately ran out of the room and went to the living room to get some water.

Jiuyou quickly asked Mengmeng, "What happened to Senior Sister's injury?"

"She helped demolish a house all day today, so her hand was scratched. Don't say it was me who said it." Meng Meng flew high immediately after saying this, fearing that she would be killed by Ye Ling.

"The water is here, warm water, come, drink slowly." Ye Ling was very careful, fearing that Jiuyou would fall into coma again if he was not careful.

Jiuyou drank water, his eyes still looking at Ye Ling's hand: "Do you want to rebuild the house? Wait until I get better before demolishing it."

"I've already told you it's okay. Just tear the two houses on the right down into one. It's very simple. It's already been demolished. All that's left is to clean up the mess. Also, you have to build up the door of the house near the main entrance, leaving only one."

"This isn't your job. Put it down and wait until I recover."

"Then tell me, what should I do?"

"You should be dominating the martial arts world, not building a house here to kill time."

"You're talking about dominating the martial arts world, so shouldn't I fight on top of the Forbidden City?"

"What is the Forbidden Peak?"

"That's not important. If you want me to dominate the martial arts world, you have to get better quickly. Only with you by my side can I dominate the world. Do you know Li Ye?"

“I know him, but I’m not familiar with him.”

"He likes Qianqing"

“It’s none of my business”

"Tsk, you're still so bad at chatting. It has nothing to do with you, but I can entrust Qianqing and Wanqi to him. With him here to take care of the family, we can go out and explore the world without worry. What do you think?"

"Master, didn't you say you couldn't go out?" Mengmeng couldn't help but ask.

"What do you know? Without Jiuyou, I naturally don't want to go out. Now that Jiuyou is here, it's not certain. At least I have to go and see my sister-in-law give birth, right? And my grandfather, I have to keep an eye on his movements from time to time. In case the old man is dying, I have to go too. He has been good to me, so I should light some incense."

"When I'm better, I'll go out with you."

"Don't worry, don't worry. The most important thing for you now is to recover from your injuries. Your sister-in-law gave birth in August, and your grandfather is strong and healthy. He won't die for a while," Ye Ling said with a smile.

The two did not sleep that night as they had endless things to talk about. The next morning, Jiuyou finally went to bed at Ye Ling's strong request.

"Miss?" Qian Qing, who hadn't seen Ye Ling come out yet, went upstairs and knocked on the door: "Are you up yet?"

Ye Ling received Meng Meng's reminder and immediately left the space to open the door: "Qian Qing, I feel a little unwell today, so I won't have breakfast. For lunch... you can make some porridge. I want to sleep now."

"Okay, I understand. Miss, you should take a rest," Qian Qing replied.

Ye Ling closed the door and returned to the space: "Meng Meng, listen to what's going on outside for me, I need to get some sleep too."

Feeling Ye Ling coming in, Jiu You opened his eyes: "Senior Sister...you...you should rest too."

"I know, you're just planning to take a nap!" Ye Ling said as he was about to go to bed.

"Wait a minute..." Jiuyou was panicking: "Senior Sister, we are not married yet, I can't tarnish your innocence."

"The master has slept with you for half a year. Are you afraid of tarnishing his innocence now? Isn't it a bit late?" Mengmeng said.

"I was unconscious before, I don't... I don't know." Jiuyou felt a little guilty. He could occasionally feel Ye Ling sleeping next to him every night for the next one or two months, but now that he was awake, he couldn't do that anymore: "Senior Sister, I... I like you, it's true, but before we get married, we absolutely cannot sleep in the same bed like this. This is disrespectful to you, against etiquette, and even more so, it's a defilement of you. Senior Sister... I..."

"Alright, alright," Ye Ling looked at the already unrivaled person. She also knew that Jiuyou was a stubborn person who wouldn't change his mind. "Since you've just recovered from a serious illness, I won't bother with you. So, Mengmeng, you take good care of Jiuyou in the space. I'll go take a nap outside. The mountain air is fresh."

"Master, don't worry. Mengmeng will take good care of Jiuyou."

Jiuyou finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Senior Sister, I...I think...I..."

"What are you thinking about?" Ye Ling had a headache.

"I want...Who knows..." Jiuyou still didn't dare to say that I want to marry you.

Ye Ling nodded helplessly: "Okay, you... go to sleep, I'll bring lunch in, Mengmeng, make sure to keep an eye on him."

Seeing the person leaving the space, Meng Meng immediately opened fire: "Jiuyou, you...how could you do this to my master? Do you know how she has been guarding you for the past six months? She hugs your arm every night when she sleeps, because she is afraid that she will fall asleep and you won't be able to wake up immediately if something unexpected happens. She wears the hairpin you made on her head all the time and hasn't changed it once in six months. And you don't want your master anymore as soon as you wake up."

Jiuyou rolled his eyes at Mengmeng: "What do you, an elf, know? How can I let my senior sister sleep next to me without any status? This is disrespectful to her."

"Okay, I can't argue with you humans, but... but did you really want to say you were asleep? Why didn't you just say what was in your heart?"

Jiuyou closed his eyes. "I'm in this state now. I don't know if I can recover. How can I say this out loud? I'm trying to climb up the social ladder. She's the jewel of the world, and I'm just a drop in the ocean. Now I'm basically a useless person. I don't want to drag her down."

"You... you're talking nonsense!" Meng Meng also imitated Ye Ling's tone and cursed: "If the master disliked you, she would have thrown you away long ago. Why would she stay in the space and accompany me all the time? You... you are not a man, humph!"

Jiuyou opened his eyes and looked at Mengmeng. After a long pause, he spoke, "Then... then what should I do? I can't even get up in this state."

"The operating table says you're fine, so there's absolutely no problem. When you stand up, you have to propose to your master. No matter when she's willing to marry you, you have to propose first. Otherwise, if you meet someone more sensible than you in the future, you'll be finished."

"Proposal?"

"Yes, prepare lots of flowers and a diamond ring. Oh no, there is no diamond ring here, so two gold couple rings. Then kneel down on one knee in front of the host and propose to her. Ask her if she is willing to marry you. If the host agrees, you put the gold ring on her finger and she will put the gold ring on you. It is best to have your two names engraved on the inside of the two rings. You wear the one with the host's name and the host wears your name. It symbolizes that your love will last until death!" Mengmeng was intoxicated by what she said.

"So many flowers? Gold rings? Kneeling on one knee?" Jiuyou repeated softly, having already memorized it in his heart.

"Okay, I won't disturb your rest. If you want to get better soon, you must have a good rest. You were noisy and didn't sleep last night, so you must sleep today," Mengmeng said.

Jiuyou closed his eyes and suddenly opened them: "Mengmeng, let me ask you something. You said that Senior Sister gave me a bath?"

"Yes!"

"Then... are you washing without wearing clothes?" Jiuyou's heart was beating fast.

"Nonsense, of course I'm stripping naked." Meng Meng suddenly grinned: "Jiuyou, my master has touched and looked at your entire body at least a thousand times, so don't be shy about covering up. Every time after a bath, the master will wipe you clean inch by inch!"

Jiuyou swallowed his saliva and pulled the quilt over his head with trembling hands. He wanted to die this time. It would be better to die right then and there!

Meng Meng was unhappy again: "Why are you covering it? You are a man. If you are at a disadvantage, it is my master who is at a disadvantage. Tell me, in this situation, if you don't marry my master, what will she do?"

Jiuyou was so angry that his face showed: "I didn't say I wouldn't marry Senior Sister."

"Then you should go to bed quickly, take good care of yourself, recover in a short time, and then marry her," Mengmeng said and turned off the lights.

The two people inside were catching up on their sleep, but the people outside were not idle. Li also started to build the door, Qianqing was cleaning up the debris taken down from the house, and the two children were also helping with the work. The scene looked like the happy life of a family of four.

Li Ye looked at the people inside and said, "Qianqing, don't do this anymore. I'll clean up after I finish building the door."

"It's okay, this is not heavy work. The young lady is not feeling well today. She was probably too tired yesterday. She didn't even eat breakfast. I have to make something good for her at noon," Qian Qing muttered.

"It shouldn't be, right? Miss's internal strength is so strong, yesterday's work was not tiring at all," Li Ye said.

"You are a man. No matter how powerful my young lady is, she is still a woman. How can you compare?" Qian Qing retorted unconvinced.

"Okay, okay," Li Ye smiled. "I said the wrong thing. The lady is really tired. From now on, don't let her do these things. I'll do it. Okay?"

"That's good enough. Okay, that's it for now. I'm going to go cook."

"Go!"
