Family affection, romantic love, and friendship must all be genuine, without any other entanglements; only then can they warm people's hearts.

Xiao Nan's eyes flickered. She wasn't interested in where Meng Fei's money came from; what she cared about was Meng Fei's intentions.

The thought is what counts; there's no need to be overly meticulous. It's a blessing to be a naive woman; being too shrewd is not good.

In front of Meng Fei, she only showed off her culinary skills and talent for planting; the rest she knew herself.

Meng Fei was very satisfied with Xiao Nan and the old woman's performance; neither of them were greedy people, which pleased him greatly.

I couldn't help but feel a greater respect for the old woman and a greater love for my daughter-in-law.

That night, when Meng Fei got onto the kang (a heated brick bed), he was stunned when he saw the two little ones in the basket.

"Honey, did you go to West Mountain today?"

"no!"

Xiao Nan warmed the blankets, took off his coat, and crawled inside.

"Where did these two come from?"

“In the wasteland, I took Juanjuan and Fengfeng to check it out. This is what they found. The two little ones’ mother died, so I brought them back, otherwise they would have starved to death.”

"Oh, it's good that they're dead. If their mother were still alive, she would definitely come looking for them. That thing kills people too easily."

"If it were alive, we wouldn't be able to come back. Look how cute it is, all fluffy, like a little kitten."

"Do you like them? Would you like to keep them?"

"Yes, what woman could resist such adorable little animals?"

Meng Fei looked at her with affection: "But when they grow up, they will scare the villagers and they will be reported to the authorities."

"Don't worry, we're at the end of the village. They're smart, and when they grow up they'll know where they can and can't go. I'll teach them."

"Alright then, let's keep it."

"What breeds are they? You used to be a hunter, you should know, right?"

"It is a descendant of a leopard, a cat-like creature. It is fast and can climb trees. It usually lives in the mountains. It must have given birth to cubs and then moved to the wilderness to raise them because there were predators in its territory."

"What do you usually eat?"

"They don't eat grain, they only eat meat. In the mountains, they catch small animals like roe deer, deer, rats, and wild boars."

"Oh, the meat bones I usually give my dog ​​are fine too, right?"

"Naturally."

"They're still so young, can they have some porridge?"

"Yes, but there must be minced meat in it. You can feed it raw meat after three or four months. It's best not to feed it chicken bones."

"understood."

Xiao Nan reached out and touched them before lying down. Meng Fei took her small hand and rubbed it incessantly.

Every night, he silently counted down in his mind. It wasn't that he was only thinking about that one thing; it was just that he couldn't be close to his wife while he was with her, and he felt an unsettling, nameless anger inside him.

Xiao Nan seemed to have noticed something, withdrew his hand, glanced at Meng Fei indifferently, and said.

"I have some medicine here, do you want some?"

Meng Fei was taken aback: "Medicine? What medicine? Why would I take it? I'm not sick!"

"Once you take the medicine, you'll fall asleep immediately, and then you won't have to hold it in anymore."

Meng Feiteng blushed deeply; if he hadn't blown out the lamp, his wife would definitely have seen his embarrassing state.

"No, no need. I just want to get closer to my wife."

"Hehe, hehe..." Xiao Nan chuckled softly in bed.

She suddenly leaned her head in front of Meng Fei's face, and Meng Fei immediately closed his eyes in tension, his heart pounding wildly.

"Wife, wife, it's me, it's me."

Xiao Nan gently pecked him on the cheek: "Get used to it first."

"May I kiss you, my husband?"

"Sure, come on!"

Xiao Nan turned her face away, leaving him with her profile. Meng Fei's hands had never trembled even when facing thousands of troops, but faced with his wife's teasing, he could no longer control himself. His hands trembled as he cupped Xiao Nan's face and pressed his lips deeply against hers.

Xiao Nan could feel his trembling. In his heart, he thought, "He's a virgin, absolutely a virgin."

Yes, me too, we're a perfect match.

She likes clean men; she doesn't want men who have been with other women or who still have a crush on someone else. Of course, she is also very strict with herself; both parties must be clean in body and mind. Otherwise, she would rather be single than settle for less.

You can only expect others to be like you; lead by example.

The next day, when the people of Ping'an Village woke up, they were greeted by a silver world. Even though it was just a thin layer of white, it was refreshing.

An unidentified little bird was chirping and chattering in the tree.

The roosters joined in, playing a winter symphony. Xiao Nan was in a good mood and hummed a happy song to their accompaniment.

Meng Fei, sporting dark circles under his eyes, was tending to the vegetable garden in the backyard. While eating breakfast, his grandmother looked into his eyes and asked him a question.

"Xiaofei, didn't you sleep well last night?"

Meng Fei blushed and nodded: "Yes, I got up twice to add firewood because I was worried the vegetables would freeze."

"No need for the wasteland, just add a few large pieces of wood, that will last all night. For the backyard, just add some once."

"Isn't it cold because of the snow?"

"Oh," thankfully the old woman didn't ask any more questions, otherwise Meng Fei would have wanted to crawl into a hole in the ground.

Xiao Nan listened intently from the side, then chuckled to himself. Meng Fei, seeing this, blushed even more, remembering what happened last night.

Half a month passed in the blink of an eye, and Ping'an Village was eerily quiet. It was too cold, and almost no one came out. Everyone huddled at home, sitting on the warm kang (heated brick bed) to keep warm.

Xiao Nan and his family were no exception; Wang Feng and his wife arrived in such cold weather.

They were not dressed warmly and entered the door shivering.

The old woman felt sorry for the two of them and didn't let them into the living room. Instead, she took them directly into her room, had them sit on the kang (a heated brick bed), and covered their legs with a quilt.

"Aunt, where is Miss Xiao?"

"I'll go call her. You two warm up first," he said, before leaving after pouring hot water for them.

Xiao Nan and Meng Fei entered the house together. The two sat on the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed), and Wang Feng immediately spoke.

"Miss Xiao, the garlic sprouts are almost two bunches tall."

"Well, mine is almost done too. Tomorrow, you two should harvest the garlic sprouts, bundle them into boxes by the pound, and remember not to let them freeze. You two should be able to carry them over, right?"

"no problem."

“Okay, cut down mine and bundle them up too.” As he said this, Xiao Nan glanced at Meng Fei.

He immediately understood and said, "Tell your sister-in-law to stay and keep Grandma company. The two of us will take Brother Feng to the restaurant to sell him. I already made an agreement with that restaurant."

"Is it in the town or the county seat?"

“It won’t work in the county town or the town; you won’t get a good price there. There are more people in the county town, and more wealthy people.”

"it is good"

Xiao Nan asked Meng Fei, "If you want to sell this, you need to know how to cook, make soup, and make dumplings. I'll make them tonight and take them with me tomorrow. When we get there, we can just heat them up. I won't say anything more."

"Shall we go back then?" Wang Feng asked.

"What's the rush? Since you're here, have lunch before you leave. Look how thinly you're dressed in the dead of winter. Don't you have any cotton at home?"

Zhou's eyes reddened: "Everyone, we all got through it like this."

Xiao Nan looked at the old woman and said, "Tell them to take the remaining cotton from the house. Make a few thick coats tonight. There seem to be two bolts of cloth left too, tell them to take those as well."

Wang Feng lowered his head. It is said that men do not easily shed tears, but at this moment, his tears fell onto the mattress below.

Zhou couldn't bring herself to refuse, as her children were all freezing.

She said softly, "Thank you, thank you."

"Don't mention it. We're relatives. When someone is in trouble, we should help each other."

"Ah, ah."

The old woman's eyes were also red. After hearing Xiao Nan's words, she quickly found a basket, took out the cotton from the cupboard, wrapped it in cloth, and...

He then took out two bolts of fine cotton cloth and stuffed them into the basket. Following Xiao Nan's advice, he went to the storeroom, took out a large piece of cured meat, wrapped it in paper, and stuffed it into the basket as well, filling it to the brim.

The couple shed tears and secretly vowed in their hearts that they would work hard with Miss Xiao from now on and listen to whatever she said.
