Travel to the mountains and make a fortune in silence

Wang Cuiying then looked at her daughter, Muqin, who understood and quickly said, "Grandma, Mother, my eldest brother and sister-in-law didn't quarrel. Go and cook some porridge for my eldest brother. My sister-in-law said he'll want to eat it when he wakes up."

"Okay, I'll go right away." Wang Cuiying's face immediately lit up with a smile. She slapped her thigh, stood up from the stool, and walked briskly into the kitchen.

Wang Cuiying immediately felt energized and busied herself in the kitchen.

Wang Qing'er made Mu Nan a cup of lemon honey water, fed it to him, and then went to get water to wipe his body.

After fetching water and returning to the room, I found Mu Nan sitting there with her head leaning against the bed.

"Why did you get up? Didn't you say you were feeling unwell?" Wang Qing'er asked as she put down the basin and wrung out a towel.

"Much better, I can do it myself." Mu Nan took the handkerchief from his wife's hand and tried to wipe his body himself. He couldn't possibly let his wife serve him like that.

Seeing that he was sweating a lot, Wang Qing'er went to get him a clean set of clothes to change into.

Seeing that her husband had tidied herself up, Wang Qing'er sniffed him again. There was still a slight smell of alcohol, but it was much better than before.

"Qing'er." Mu Nan pulled his wife into his arms.

"What's wrong? Is there anything else that's bothering you?" Wang Qing'er asked with concern as he held her.

"I'm fine, Qing'er. I have absolutely no relationship with Xiuhe. Do you believe me?" Even when Mu Nan was drunk, he was still preoccupied with this matter. Now that he was sober, he was eager to explain to his wife.

"My lord, I trust you completely." Wang Qing'er didn't know why, but she trusted this man so much and didn't doubt him at all.

I was a little angry at the beginning of the day, but I quickly calmed down. After having a few drinks and taking a nap, I saw the man lying next to me and I wasn't angry at all.

Isn't she incredibly useless? How could she trust this man so easily?

"Qing'er, it's so good to have you!" Mu Nan hugged the person in his arms even tighter, feeling grateful for his wife's kindness and understanding.

"Husband, will you take a concubine in the future?" Wang Qing'er suddenly asked out of the blue.

Mu Nan was slightly taken aback upon hearing this. Why was his wife asking such a question? Had some gossipy person said something to her again?

Fortunately, Mu Nan didn't hear what Aunt He said in the afternoon, otherwise he would have definitely made Aunt He suffer on the spot.

His wife is his bottom line; if he makes her unhappy, he won't care about anyone else's feelings.

Mu Nan cupped his wife's small face in his hands, and their eyes met. Looking into her clear, bright eyes, Mu Nan said firmly:

"No, I told you that day that I, Mu Nan, only want you, Wang Qing'er, in this life, and you can only be mine."

"Okay, I'm yours too." After hearing the answer she wanted, Wang Qing'er smiled sweetly at him, stood on tiptoe, and kissed the man's warm lips.

Since he promised her a lifetime of love and devotion, she would believe him and love him no matter what happened in the future.

In the end, the person who went to the front yard to get the food became Mu Nan.

After spending some time together in the room, Mu Nan tidied herself up before heading to the kitchen to find something to eat. It was already early 9 PM.

In the past, by this time, the family members would have already gone back to their rooms to rest, but today they were all sitting in the courtyard waiting. Everyone was a little uneasy, but no one disturbed them.

Mu Yao, at such a young age, didn't understand what was wrong with her great-grandmother, her grandmother, and the rest of the family.

She stayed by his side obediently until she was really sleepy, then snuggled into her second uncle's arms and fell asleep.

Zhou and Wang Cuiying were not being overly worried or making a mountain out of a molehill.

They were terrified, worried that Mu Nan's hard-won happiness would be ruined because of this incident.

As the saying goes, once bitten by a snake, twice shy.

In their eyes, Mu Nan had already experienced one emotional ordeal, and if he were to go through it again, he wouldn't be able to handle it.

This child has sacrificed so much for this family.

"Grandma, Father, Mother, Aunt, it's so late, why aren't you all back in your rooms to rest?" Mu Nan walked to the front yard and asked in surprise when she saw everyone sitting in the yard.

"Son! Are you and Qing'er alright?" Wang Cuiying asked anxiously as soon as she saw her son, and everyone else looked at him expectantly as well.

"What's wrong with you two? Qing'er and I are fine. I just drank too much at noon and have a headache. She's taking care of me in the room."

Mu Nan suddenly felt her ears burning. If it weren't for the fact that there was only a lantern in the corridor and the courtyard was dimly lit, everyone would have been able to see Mu Nan's ears, which looked like they were about to bleed.

He didn't expect that while he and his wife were fooling around in the room until late at night, his grandmother and parents were still waiting in the yard, worried that they would quarrel.

Zhou finally breathed a sigh of relief, her heart finally settling down. Wanting to confirm, she asked, "Are you and Qing really alright?"

"Grandma, it's really okay." Mu Nan scratched her head to hide her helplessness.

"It's good that you're alright. Cuiying, the children must be hungry. Go to the kitchen and get them something to eat." Zhou Shi hurriedly instructed her daughter-in-law.

"Okay, I'll go right away, everything's ready." Wang Cuiying replied and walked briskly into the kitchen.

"Grandma, it's late, you should go and rest. I'll bring some food to your room."

"Okay, okay." Zhou nodded in agreement, then called to her grandson, "Xiao'er, quickly bring your niece into my room, this girl has been wanting to sleep for a while."

Upon hearing this, Mu Xiao carried his little niece in one arm and helped Zhou Shi with the other as they walked towards her room.

The others dispersed and returned to their own rooms.

The rice porridge and vegetables are kept warm in the pot; you just need to take them out.

Mu Nan brought the food into the room. Wang Qing'er was already starving and wolfed down a bowl of porridge.

"I'll give you some more."

"I'm full!" Wang Qing'er let out a satisfied burp and then put down her chopsticks and bowl.

Mu Nan thought it wasn't good to eat too much so late at night, so she didn't urge her to eat any more. After finishing her own meal, she cleaned up the dishes and went back to her room.

"It's late, you should get some rest." He saw that his wife was still engrossed in a book, so he reached out and took the book from her hands.

"Husband, we just finished eating, you can't lie down so soon." Wang Qing'er gave him a coquettish look.

"Then let's exercise for another hour before going to sleep?" Mu Nan said to his wife with a provocative look.

"You... shameless. I'm going to sleep. I can't be bothered with you." Wang Qing'er blushed, turned over and lay down on the bed, leaving Mu Nan with her back turned.

Mu Nan smiled, revealing a beautiful smile, and blew out the oil lamp.

After lying down, he pulled his wife into his arms and gently coaxed her, "Honey, I was just teasing you."

"Annoying, I'm ignoring you." She was genuinely angry. What was this man thinking?

"Wife, I was wrong." Mu Nan sincerely admitted her mistake.

"Do you really know that you are wrong?"

"Ah."

"Tell me, where did I go wrong?"

"I...wife, you don't like me touching you?" Mu Nan asked her instead of answering.

"What do I mean?" Where did this man get the sense that she didn't like him?

"Then why did you..."
