Travel to the mountains and make a fortune in silence

"Mu Xiao is already very capable; he's the one who taught Mu Lin."

"Wow, so you all know martial arts! That's amazing!" Wang Qing'er peeked out from his arms with an envious look on her face. She also wanted to know martial arts, not only to improve her health, but more importantly, to defend herself.

"If you want to learn, I can teach you, but learning martial arts is very hard work, you..."

"I'm not afraid of hard work, Brother Mu Nan, please teach me!"

"Alright, I'll teach you martial arts when we get back. But Qing'er, can you go to sleep now?"

"Go to sleep!" Wang Qing'er obediently returned to his arms, but after a while, a voice came from inside him again, "Brother Mu Nan, why does Shang Congjian call you Senior Brother? Are you learning martial arts together?"

Wang Qing'er suddenly remembered Shang Congjian and asked again.

"He's my junior brother who I learned martial arts with."

"Oh? So you're the eldest disciple?"

"Ok!"

"Is it because your martial arts skills are the highest?"

"Yes and no."

"Oh"

……

The voice of his wife in his arms gradually weakened, followed by her steady breathing.

For some reason, Mu Nan was somewhat out of control tonight, hugging and kissing his wife incessantly, his large hands reaching inside her clothes to caress her smooth and delicate skin.

Wang Qing'er was so overwhelmed by his kisses in her sleep that she murmured softly, "Brother Mu Nan, I'm so sleepy!"

"Qing'er, I want you so much!" Mu Nan said in a hoarse, deep voice, gently biting Wang Qing'er's bare shoulder.

Wang Qing'er vaguely heard Mu Nan's words, but how could she not understand what Mu Nan was referring to?

They were husband and wife, and consummating their marriage was only a matter of time. She had originally worried that her husband was impotent, but every time they kissed, as long as she responded to him slightly, she could feel a change in Mu Nan in a certain place.

Just like the thing currently protruding from her body, it can't be faked; I think it's his body, so there shouldn't be any problem.

But she didn't want to do that in the inn, so the best way to refuse was to pretend to be asleep.

So she kept her eyes closed and pretended to be asleep, ignoring Mu Nan's kisses.

A short while later, Mu Nan helped her tidy up her clothes, looked at his wife who was pretending to be asleep, shook his head and smiled bitterly, then got out of bed and went to the bathroom to take care of himself.

"Oh my god? That was close! I almost gave in. This man is really torturous." Wang Qing'er felt sweaty all over and very uncomfortable.

Not long after, the man lay back down on the bed and held her. Fortunately, this time they didn't do anything else, just held each other, and soon they both fell asleep. The night passed peacefully.

In her dream, Wang Qing'er darted through the woods, sometimes flying up a tall tree, sometimes speeding through the forest, having a wonderful time.

"Qing'er, get up and go home." Early in the morning, Wang Qing'er was sleeping soundly when Mu Nan scooped her out of bed.

Wang Qing'er rubbed her eyes. "Brother Mu Nan, what time is it?"

"It's already past 3:40 AM. We still need to pick up Wu Zihao and the others from the pharmacy, so we have to leave early. You can catch up on your sleep on the way."

"Oh!" Wang Qing'er suddenly realized that she was really lazy. She was the last one to get up at home every day. In this era, what daughter-in-law was like her, sleeping until noon every day?

I feel like my biological clock has changed since I came here. Before I came here, I would get up at six o'clock to run, but now I'm getting later and later.

Fortunately, neither her grandmother nor her mother-in-law blamed her. However, she still needs to change her habit of sleeping in late, otherwise, conflicts will definitely arise over time.

However, it was impossible for her to get up on her own, so she said, "Brother Mu Nan, from now on, you should wake me up every day after you get up."

Why did you get up so early?

"Everyone else gets up so early, I feel bad about sleeping so late by myself."

Mu Nan put down what she was holding, went over and hugged Wang Qing'er. "Qing'er, you don't need to force yourself to get up early. Just sleep until you naturally wake up every day. Grandma and Mother won't mind, and they certainly won't blame you."

"But I'll feel embarrassed!"

"Silly girl, what's there to be embarrassed about? I'll take care of everything!"

"Alright then, remember to wake me up if I get up too late."

"Okay, hurry up and wash up! Otherwise, we'll be late."

"Brother Mu Nan, have the pastries we ordered arrived yet?"

"It's here, I've put it all in the carriage."

"Oh."

After the two finished tidying up, Mu Nan checked out of the room and bought some breakfast. Then, the two drove the carriage to Hesheng Hall to pick up Wu's mother and son.

At this moment, Wu's mother and son had already tidied up and were waiting for them at the entrance of the pharmacy. When Wu's mother saw Mu Nan and Wang Qing'er, she was about to lead the children to kneel down and express their gratitude, but Wang Qing'er stopped her first, saying, "Auntie, you mustn't."

"Thank you so much, sir and madam, for taking our family in," said Mrs. Wu, supported by her two daughters, sounding very weak.

Wang Qing'er sized up the woman in front of her. The woman was wearing a faded dark blue cotton coat and was very thin, as if she were a withered tree branch that could break at any moment.

Her eyes were sunken, and there were dark circles around them, which was obviously due to lack of rest.

The three girls beside her, the oldest was about the same age as Wang Qing'er, the youngest was probably no more than ten years old, and the youngest was only three or four years old.

They were all very thin, but very handsome. Their clothes were old but very clean, showing that the whole family was very hardworking.

Wang Qing'er was very satisfied and thought about going back to cook some delicious food to nourish them and improve their physical condition.

There will be a few more people in the family to help with the chores. Anyway, her chores aren't tiring and are suitable for these teenagers.

Wang Qing'er handed breakfast to Wu Zihao, "Zihao, this is breakfast. You can eat it on the way. Take your mother, younger brother and sister and get in the car. We're going home."

She gave the newly bought carriage to the Wu family mother and son, while she herself continued to ride in the borrowed carriage.

As they drove the carriage to the outskirts of the city, Boss Niu was already there, eagerly waiting for them. Upon seeing Mu Nan arrive in the carriage, he immediately went to greet them, saying, "Young master and young lady, you've finally arrived. Please take a look at Niu first."

"Huh? Isn't this cart carrying cattle just a giant version of that prison cart? This really is..."

Looking at the cows lying or standing in the six carriages, Wang Qing'er wondered what could be discerned from them. The cows inside couldn't move and looked rather mushy. She waved to the cow owner and said, "Boss, no need to look anymore. We trust you. Let's set off now!"

"Alright, alright, I guarantee these oxen will all be full of energy when they arrive at the young master's and lady's house," the ox owner said with a beaming smile.

Because the oxcart was moving slowly, they didn't arrive at Nan'ao Town until 3:45 noon. They had bought breakfast and ate it on the cart. After the bumpy ride, Wang Qing'er was feeling a bit hungry.
