The more cowardly a person is, the more wild they are; I've driven the villainous minister craz

This bellyband must belong to Yunxi.

In Shijia Village, only unmarried girls wear embroidered bellybands. Married women mostly wear bellybands embroidered with mandarin ducks, lovebirds, and other patterns. Most importantly...

The undergarment hanging on the bamboo pole was clearly not her size.

Yu Wan glanced silently at her chest.

The original owner of this body did not have a bewitching face, but she did have a curvaceous figure.

With a full bust and a slender waist, she was a stunning beauty.

A pure and alluring face, a seductive and sexy figure—that perfectly describes the original body.

Thinking about this, Yu Wan couldn't help but have her own doubts.

Is there something wrong with Yun Shang in that area? Otherwise, with such a beautiful wife right in front of him, how come he hasn't done anything with her?

She thought to herself, and reached in to take the undergarment.

During the day, with people coming and going outside, if such a young woman's private items are seen by others, it's easy for gossip to spread.

Following her memory, Yu Wan placed the bellyband in the box where Yun Xi packed her clothes.

After doing all this, she turned and went to the kitchen.

The Yun family's kitchen was very simple. At first glance, the kitchen was empty and there were not many things. Yu Wan searched through the kitchen according to her memory and finally found three sweet potatoes and a small bag of flour.

Even the rice container was empty.

The Yun family's current predicament can be described in three words.

No money, no food, no land.

A standard impoverished household.

Yu Wan took a deep breath, but there was no despair in her heart.

We may be a bit poor, but good health is the most important thing.

In her previous life, Yu Wan did not eat normal food for a full six months until her death.

Without thinking further, she washed and sliced ​​the three sweet potatoes in her hand, preparing to steam them and mix them with flour to make sweet potato pancakes.

The skin is fried until golden brown and crispy, and it's fragrant and sweet with every bite. Just thinking about it makes Yu Wan impatient.

She had a good plan, but accidents always happen unexpectedly.

When the fire in the stove went out for the third time, Yu Wan had to admit that she really didn't have the talent for starting a fire.

Despite the freezing weather, she was sweating profusely.

Wiping away her sweat and hesitating whether to ask for help, Yu Wan suddenly heard a faint noise at the door.

She quickly looked up and was suddenly met with a pale face.

"Yun... Yun Shang?" Yu Wan was taken aback, not expecting him to come to the kitchen. "What are you doing here?"

In my memory, Yun Shang usually stayed indoors studying at home and only came out to eat.

At home, he only needs to do one thing: bury himself in his books.

Yun Shang did not answer, but silently watched Yu Wan squatting beside the mud stove.

He didn't know why he had come to the kitchen.

Actually, he got up very early and could clearly hear the noises from next door.

I heard Yu Wan get up, go out, and come to the kitchen.

The simple mud house had poor partitions, and Yun Shang, sitting at his desk, could clearly hear rustling sounds coming from the kitchen.

He should have been very familiar with this sound, but today, holding the book, he couldn't concentrate on reading it no matter what.

The image of Yu Wan's clear and bright eyes from last night kept flashing uncontrollably into my mind.

Yun Shang lowered his eyes and said calmly, "Do you need any help?"

Yu Wan's eyes lit up.

She was initially hesitant to ask the male lead to do chores, but now he has offered to help on his own initiative.

Yu Wan immediately made way for her, her face beaming, "Yes, of course I want to. Do you know how to start a fire?"

Yun Shang did not answer, but avoided her clear eyes and walked to the mud stove on his own.

His hands were long and fair, and even when he was doing something as simple as starting a fire, they looked kind and pleasing to the eye.

Yu Wan admired it silently for a while before struggling to look away.

Sweet potato pancakes are easy to make. After Yu Wan had mixed all the batter, she turned around and saw Yun Shang already standing in front of the stove cleaning up.

He bent slightly at the waist, his sleeve rolled up to reveal a section of his fair arm.

Although the original text gave the male protagonist a sickly character setting, the male protagonist is still the male protagonist.

Even if he's sickly, he's still exceptionally gifted, unlike ordinary people.

Looking at his exposed, muscular arm, Yu Wan couldn't help but recall the indescribable scenes from the original book.

Yun Shang noticed Yu Wan's gaze and turned his head to look over.

Yu Wan immediately blushed and avoided his gaze, as if she had been caught doing something wrong.

Yun Shang paused slightly, then lowered his eyes as if nothing had happened.

He asked calmly, "What else is needed?"

Yu Wan dared not let him stay here any longer.

The male lead's looks and physique are too irresistible; she has no immunity to them yet, so she should stay as far away as possible!

"No need, I'll handle the rest myself." Yu Wan tried to make her tone sound normal. "Go check on Yunxi and the others."

"I just checked, and they've already woken up." Yun Shang only added one more thing: "Elder Feng said they're fine now, so you don't need to worry."

As he spoke, he had already reached the door, but out of the corner of his eye he saw the girl's relieved expression.

Yun Shang paused slightly, his eyes darkening.

In the past, Yu Wan couldn't wait to stick to him, but now she felt relieved because he left the kitchen.

Yu Wan then discovered that Yun Shang, who was supposed to leave, had turned back.

She held a dough ball in her hand, looking at him with a blank and puzzled expression.

"Why are you back again?"

Yun Shang's eyes were cold and clear as she said calmly, "Can't I be here?"

Yu Wan realized that something was wrong with her words and quickly said, "No, what I meant was that there's a lot of oil and smoke in the kitchen, and it's not appropriate for you to stay here."

Yun Shang walked to the stove and calmly added firewood. "Mother and Yunxi can't help you with the work for the time being, so we can't let you take care of the whole family by yourself."

Yu Wan never expected Yun Shang to say such a thing, and a subtle feeling arose in her heart.

Before this, the male lead was just a two-dimensional character to her, but now he seems to have become much more vivid.

Yu Wan did not refuse.

She has now become Yu Wan in the book, and out of guilt, she wants to do something for the Yun family to make amends and increase the male lead's favorability.

The fact that Yun Shang was willing to help proves that his opinion of him has changed, doesn't it?

As the sweet potato pancakes gradually took shape in the oil, her smile grew even brighter.

The pale sunlight streaming in through the window couldn't even match the brightness of her clear, bright eyes.

For a moment, Yun Shang felt that he and Yu Wan were like an ordinary couple who got up early to prepare meals together.

He suddenly stood up and walked towards the door without saying a word.

When Yu Wan came to her senses, she only saw Yun Shang's back as he walked out of the kitchen.

"..."

Isn't this supposed to be helping?

They just ran away?
