The government was sending out wives, and I ended up with a princess from the previous dynasty!

The next morning.

Jia Daoshi slept until he naturally woke up.

I feel so refreshed!

My biological clock, which has never failed me before, malfunctioned this time.

He opened his eyes and found that it was already broad daylight outside.

Turning my head again, I saw that the two sisters on the other side of the kang were still fast asleep.

These two sisters seem to have had a good night's sleep in a long time.

The heat from inside the blankets made their faces flushed.

Just by looking at how the two of them sleep, they look like children, especially Murong Jiu, who even kicks off the blankets at night.

Jia Daoshi tried to move as quietly as possible as he prepared to get up, since there were too many things to do and now was not the time to stay in bed.

"Lang Jun."

His movement was noticed by Di Qinglin.

Jia Daoshi smiled helplessly: "I'm going to the early market today to sell my things."

……

After getting up and eating something casually, Jia Daoshi and Di Qinglin took a wild rabbit and a pickled roe deer leg and headed to Yilan County.

Murong Jiu was physically weak and had difficulty walking, so she stayed at home to rest.

Yilan County is about 15 miles away from Jiajia Village, which is not a long distance.

The villagers in the mountains usually get up early. By the time Jia Daoshi and Di Qinglin arrived in Yilan County, the market was already packed with people. The stone-paved streets were lined with shops and stalls.

This wasn't the first time Di Qinglin had sold mountain products here, and he quickly found his previous spot.

"Young lady Qinglin, what are you selling here today?"

Nearby, a dark-skinned, robust woman selling dried plums asked Di Qinglin with great delight upon seeing him.

However, when the peasant woman saw Jia Daoshi standing behind Di Qinglin, the smile on her face vanished instantly, replaced by a look of disgust.

Jia Daoshi used to accompany Di Qinglin to sell mountain products here, but as soon as he got the money, he would gamble it away. Many people knew about this, and many people hated him.

Di Qinglin laughed and said, "Auntie, I caught a wild rabbit and a roe deer. This is a pickled roe deer leg, enough to last us all winter!"

The peasant woman glanced at it and exclaimed, "It really is a mountain rabbit, and it's quite plump! And those roe deer legs are strong too! Qinglin, you're lucky! Where did you hunt it?"

As the peasant woman spoke, she glared fiercely at Jia Daoshi.

She truly hated Jia Daoshi!

A girl as good as Di Qinglin would be suffering if she followed him!

"Auntie, my husband hunted these on the mountain behind the village. He was really lucky!"

This was the first time that Di Qinglin and Jia Daoshi had spoken of their husbands in front of outsiders, even after being married for so long.

Moreover, the tone no longer carried the previous disgust, but was full of joy.

"What? He hit him?" The peasant woman was stunned.

How can this be?

……

After Jia Daoshi and his group set off for Yilan County, Murong Jiu first tidied up the house, then grabbed a small handful of rice bran and went to the chicken coop.

Jia Daoshi kept the pheasant at home because it would lay eggs.

Eggs are nutritious and can help replenish the body. Murong Jiu recalled the look in Jia Daoshi's eyes when he said this, and found a rare tenderness in them.

Murong Jiu felt that having such a husband seemed really good.

After tidying up the housework, she had some free time and went to the bookshelf in the room.

Carefully lifting the black cloth covering it, he crouched down and rummaged through the drawers under the bookcase.

Then, she pulled out an antique wooden box.

The wooden box is carved with exquisite and delicate patterns, but some of these patterns have already worn away.

On the lid, four small seal characters are engraved: "Wuqing Nanzang"!

Murong Jiu stretched out her slender, thin hand and gently stroked the wooden box, murmuring, "Father, Mother, Teacher, you risked your lives to send me out of Qing Kingdom, saying that as long as I carried this book, there would be hope for the restoration of the kingdom... but the prerequisite is to find someone... someone with seven moles in that place, but how am I supposed to find them? Do you think it could be Jia Daoshi? Ajiu is really tired now..."

"After wandering and enduring many hardships, my daughter has finally settled down in Jiajia Village! Now I want to live a peaceful life! But I find that I can't. I often dream about you in my sleep. If your spirits in heaven can hear my daughter's voice, can you help me?"

Murong Jiu remained silent for a moment, then suddenly heard footsteps coming from the courtyard outside. She hurriedly hid the box in her hand and covered it with a black cloth.

"My lord, Sister Qinglin, you..."

Murong Jiu walked to the door with a look of surprise, only to find that the people who came were not Jia Daoshi and Di Qinglin, but Zhou Laosi!

"Oh! Our little lady, getting all lovey-dovey in broad daylight? I'm not your good-for-nothing husband, I'm your Brother Zhou!"

Zhou Laosi, with bandages still wrapped around his body and a cane in his hand, limped towards Murong Jiu.

Moreover, his lewd eyes were constantly scanning Murong Jiu.

After learning that Murong Jiu was still a virgin, Zhou Laosi became increasingly uneasy!

Even when I sleep at night, I dream of Murong Jiu's beautiful features and her petite figure!

Zhou Laosi really likes this kind of thing!

He had long been tired of the women in the Baihualou brothel in Yilan County.

Now, Zhou Laosi just wants to change his taste.

Seeing Murong Jiu frozen in fear, Zhou Laosi said smugly, "Hey Jiu, you've been married for a year now, and that good-for-nothing Jia Daoshi still hasn't touched you. Aren't you feeling really anxious? Don't worry, if you ever want a man, just go find your brother Zhou! Don't let his skinny appearance fool you, he's incredibly skilled in bed!"

"Shameless! Vulgar! Don't come any closer! If you come any closer, I'll call for help!" Murong Jiu's face was deathly pale, filled with terror!

"Shout? Go ahead and shout! With your soft, high-pitched voice, you're only good for entertaining me in bed. You want to call someone else? Only pigs can fly! That Jia Daoshi is a complete waste! He's brought so many beautiful women, yet he doesn't use a single one? Isn't that a terrible waste? Making young girls live like widows at such a young age is simply a sin!"

"But none of that matters. From now on, Brother Zhou will keep you ladies company..."

As Zhou Laosi continued spewing these foul words, he excitedly lunged at Murong Jiu...

Murong Jiu already had difficulty walking, and before he knew it, Zhou Laosi had tackled him to the ground!

"You! Let me go! You beast!"

Murong Jiu struggled desperately, and Zhou Laosi, who was already injured, couldn't hold him down for a moment!
