A blessed wife leads her husband to wealth and prosperity!

After closing the door, Wen Yuning looked at the person sitting on the bed and saw the little girl turning her head to look at her.

Lin He'er: Has the crowd dispersed outside?

Yes, all the guests have left. You must be exhausted after a long day.

Lin He'er: It was indeed quite tiring. I didn't expect getting married to be so complicated. Fortunately, it only happens once in a lifetime, haha!

Wen Yuning looked at the little girl smiling happily at him, and his eyes unconsciously filled with doting affection; Don't worry, I'll only let you get tired of this once in your life!

Lin He'er; ...

"Come on, there's still one step in our wedding ceremony that we haven't finished!" he said, pouring two glasses of wine and handing them to Lin He'er.

Lin He'er blushed as she looked at the wine that was handed to her.

They took their wine glasses, sat on the edge of the bed, leaned towards each other, and drank the wine from their glasses, their necks intertwined.

Lin He'er was practically pressed against Wen Yuning's chest in order to drink the wine he was holding. Wen Jialang looked down at the girl who was about to snuggle into his arms, smelling her sweet fragrance, and felt his body burning hot!

After the others finished drinking the nuptial wine and moved away from me, I felt a little disappointed. Looking at the little girl's outfit today, I was truly amazed.

"Ahem, I'll go get some water. You should wash up and get some rest." After saying that, he turned and went outside.

When he came back from outside, he was carrying a large wooden tub in his arms.

Lin He'er looked at the bathtub; it was really big. Since coming here, she hadn't had a proper bath. Although she could bathe every day at the Lin family home, they would just mix water in a wooden basin and use a towel to wash herself. Using a bathtub like this was out of the question back home.

When she came to her senses, Wen Yuning had already filled the bathtub with water.

You go ahead and shower, I'll go out for a bit. Since there wasn't a separate shower room in the house, Wen Yuning was afraid the little girl would be shy, so she had to leave the room first and wait for her to finish showering before going back in.

Lin He'er got up, locked the door from the inside, took off her clothes, and slowly entered the bathtub. Ah, soaking in a bath is indeed the most comfortable thing. The water in the tub was slightly warm, and with her whole body inside, much of the day's fatigue was relieved.

Lin He'er really wanted to stay in the water forever; the warm water enveloping her body was a wonderful way to induce sleep. If it weren't for the fact that there was someone standing outside, she really wouldn't want to get out of the tub.

After washing up and getting dressed, Lin He'er unlatched the door, called out softly to the outside, and quickly climbed into bed and burrowed under the covers.

As soon as I lay down under the covers, I felt something uncomfortable beneath me. I reached under the covers with my hand and grabbed a handful of dried fruit and peanuts...

After cleaning up the things under the blanket, Wen Yuning returned to the room from outside.

Lin He'er: Brother Wen, please pour out the water and add some more hot water to wash up!

No need, the water is still warm. You go to sleep, I'll wash up and then go to sleep.

Lin He'er peeked out and saw Wen Yuning take off his outer robe, preparing to use his own bathwater. Her face immediately flushed red, and she buried her head under the covers. This guy was just too much… He had just left the room to save face, and now he was taking off his clothes right in front of everyone…

Lin He'er was so embarrassed that she was covered in the quilt. Just thinking about how Wen Yuning was taking a bath naked in the same room as her made her feel so ashamed!

Ah! Lin He'er, although you have the heart of an adult inside, you're still just a little girl physically. Don't let your mind wander. Don't look at what's inappropriate! This is not suitable for children. Go to sleep now, you can think about it in your dreams!

Wen Yuning took a bath, changed her clothes, and came to the bedside. She saw that the little girl had completely burrowed under the covers, not even her head was showing. She wasn't afraid of covering herself up!

I pulled back the covers and lay down, the warmth inside comforting me. Mmm, so cozy!

Lin He'er felt the blanket being pulled back, and Wen Yuning's somewhat cold body entered the bed. She shivered as she was hit by the cold air.

"Is it a little chilly?" Wen Yuning asked, pulling the little girl, who had her back to him, into a tight embrace. "Mmm, He'er smells so good, she's so soft. It's so nice to sleep like this. No wonder married men say that sleeping with your wife is the best." Now he was one of those men who could sleep with his wife in his arms!

Lin He'er froze as someone hugged her from behind. What was Wen Yuning trying to do? She was only 12 years old at most; this was way too early…

It seems I should give him a basic lesson in modern physiology. Thinking this, I could only stiffly turn around and awkwardly begin, "Um, you know, I'm only 12 years old this year, and I haven't started my period yet..."

Hehe, what is He'er saying? Wen Yuning saw the little girl suddenly turn around, her face conflicted as if she wanted to tell him something, so she quickly interrupted her with a smile, "I know what you want to say, don't worry, I just want to hold you, I won't do anything to you! I can wait for you to grow up, you silly girl!"

Lin He'er; was it really just sleeping while being held?

Of course, what do you think? I'm not some kind of... you know, someone who could bring himself to kiss a little girl like that?

Lin He'er: What are you saying? What's wrong with being a little girl? I haven't even complained about your age yet. Wait a few years until you grow up, and then you'll be old!

Uh...you're right. So when you grow up, don't look down on me, okay? I don't look down on you now either!

Lin He'er: ...I always feel like this guy got the better deal!

Okay, okay, you've had a long day, aren't you sleepy? Go to sleep now.

Lin He'er: I am tired, but there is something I want to ask you!

Um, what is it?

Lin He'er, why did you drop out of the private school in town?

For no particular reason, I can study anywhere, but the town is too far from home, so it's still inconvenient.

Listening to Wen Yuning's explanation from above, Lin He'er knew that he wasn't telling the truth.

I went to the private school to look for you, and I even had a fight with your teacher's wife!

Huh? You came to see me? And you even had a fight with someone? Wen Yuning didn't expect that Lin He'er would come to see her after she left.

Lin He'er: I know even if you don't tell me, it must be related to your master's wife. We're married now, why are you still keeping secrets from me?

Well, hearing what the little girl said, it seems I have no choice but to tell her.

Actually, it's nothing. After you visited me at the private school last time, I ran into Wang Wan'er when I returned to the courtyard. She said she was in love with me and asked me to break off the engagement with the Lin family. I didn't agree and even verbally reprimanded her a few times.

Later, Master Wang must have found out about this and talked to me. I had a disagreement with him, and it wasn't good to continue studying there. Since we were getting married soon, I dropped out of school and came back to wait to marry you!

Hearing Wen Yuning speak so calmly to herself, Lin He'er wondered if she had been upset at the private school that day.

Just as I suspected, this matter was indeed related to that mother and daughter. I never imagined Wang Wan'er would be so shameless, secretly trying to steal someone else's fiancé—the daughter of a teacher! She's wasted her education. Even that Teacher Wang is no better; his own daughter is secretly lusting after another man, and he's even helping to persuade her—a truly hypocritical and sanctimonious man. Luckily, he only passed the lowest level of the imperial examinations; if someone like him were to become an official, he'd only be a corrupt and incompetent one!

Wen Yuning looked down at the little girl, whose eyes were darting around, seemingly lost in thought. She quickly pinched the smooth little face in front of her.

Stop overthinking and go to sleep. We can talk about this later.

Lin He'er glared at the person above her head after being lightly pinched on the cheek, then closed her eyes and went back to sleep.

Exhausted after a long day, and with a constant-temperature radiator beside her, Lin He'er quickly fell asleep.
