The sickly son died young? After the marriage exchange, I will bring prosperity to his entire clan f

Just as she was about to pull her legs and hands back, she felt that Ling Silang was about to wake up. She hurriedly closed her eyes, adjusted her breathing, and tried to look like she was still asleep.

She was devastated; in all her three lifetimes, this was the first time such an embarrassing thing had happened.

Ling Silang had already woken up. He was being pressed down, and his little brother wanted to stand up, but it was pressed down by the woman's leg, which was painful and uncomfortable. He didn't dare to move, for fear of startling the woman next to him.

He also tried to regulate his breathing, and secretly opened his eyes to peek. He found that she was still asleep. Her unique fragrance wafted into his nose, making him feel hot all over.

The more he did this, the less he dared to move, fearing that if he moved even slightly, she would wake up, which would be even more awkward.

He stared at Du Mingxian secretly for a while, and then he noticed that her eyelids seemed to move. He hurriedly closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep, not daring to let her know that he had woken up.

Du Mingxian waited for a long time but did not feel Ling Silang wake up. The body she was pressing down on did not move at all. She quietly opened her eyes.

As expected, Ling Silang was still not awake.

She tried to move her leg away quietly, but as soon as she moved, Little Ling Silang responded immediately, as if a gun was pointed at her head, as if to say, "If you dare to move, I'll kill you."

This made Du Mingxian even more afraid to move, fearing that he would wake up if she moved.

So she opened her eyes and looked at the man in front of her. His face was very white, and his features were very handsome, but he was too thin. His eyelashes looked particularly long, and his skin was very good, very delicate, and must feel very nice to the touch.

If you have the chance, you should definitely try touching it and see if it feels as good as you imagined.

She was in a daze when she felt Ling Silang's eyelashes tremble slightly. She hurriedly closed her eyes, not daring to open them, for fear that he would notice something amiss.

Ling Silang opened his eyes and found that Du Mingxian was still asleep. Suddenly, he thought of something and curled his lips. This time, he didn't hide it and just stared straight at her.

A small nose, beautiful eyes, long eyelashes, and full lips—she looks incredibly sexy and alluring. I wonder if it would taste just as good if I kissed her.

He stared at her for a long time, noticing that she hadn't opened her eyes, until he felt that Du Mingxian was about to open her eyes again.

He sighed silently in his heart, shifted his body slightly, and turned his back to her.

Du Mingxian, who had been pretending to be asleep, immediately pulled her hands and legs back. She felt as if her soul had been freed in an instant, and she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

After listening for a long time, she realized that Ling Silang was still not awake, so she quietly got out of bed and tiptoed out.

When she got out of bed and walked outside, Ling Silang opened his eyes and saw her careful movements. He smiled deeply. He didn't close his eyes until she went out and turned to close the door.

After closing the door, Du Mingxian let out a long sigh, muttering to herself, "That was close, that was close. I was almost discovered. It was so dangerous."

"I can't sleep in the same bed with Ling Silang anymore."

After saying that, she went outside to pick vegetables and then rummaged through the refrigerator, intending to cook a proper meal.

When she came in from outside carrying a pheasant, she heard the door open and turned around to see Ling Silang awake.

For some reason, when she met his eyes, she felt a little guilty for a moment. "You're awake."

"Hmm." Ling Silang glanced at the things in her hands. "I'll help you."

"Okay."

The two entered the kitchen one after the other, and Du Mingxian even asked, "Did you sleep well?"

"It's alright." After Ling Silang finished speaking, he observed Du Mingxian and saw her looking relieved. He said, "But I don't know if I was dreaming, but I always felt like something was pressing down on me, making it hard for me to breathe."

Du Mingxian's body stiffened visibly. "Then it must be a dream."

"That should be it."

Du Mingxian felt a little disgusted with herself, blaming herself for asking the question. She had been eager to talk before, but now she had no desire to talk at all, so she simply buried herself in her work.

She left the task of washing the vegetables to Ling Silang, and killed the chicken.

It wasn't that she felt sorry for Ling Silang, but rather that Ling Silang had never done this before in many years, and she was afraid that this person wouldn't do it cleanly, and the resulting dish would be inedible, wasting ingredients.

The two worked well together. Ling Shilang wasn't very good at it, but he was trying his best.

Du Mingxian cooked rice, made braised chicken, stir-fried the remaining chicken pieces, and also made stir-fried vegetables with garlic and a soup.

As soon as the food was served, Ling Silang smelled a rich aroma.

"Your cooking is so good. I'm so lucky to have married such a wonderful wife."

“The divorce papers are still there.” Du Mingxian rolled her eyes at him and placed a bowl of rice in front of him. “So don’t call me ‘wife,’ that’s all in the past.”

"We were sleeping in the same bed just an hour ago."

There was a reason for that.

Knowing he was in the wrong, Ling Silang didn't say anything more and simply ate in silence.

After the two finished their meal, Ling Silang looked around and noticed that there was no change between day and night. "Is it day or night outside now?"

"It must be late at night."

Ling Silang didn't say anything.

Du Mingxian put down the bowl and said, "Clean up the kitchen, wash the bowls and pots, then I'll quietly go home to your room to get you some books. After that, I'll go to town and then send you out of the space."

"No need to take it. I've read all the books at home. Besides, Mom and Dad don't sleep much these days. They probably didn't sleep well last night knowing we weren't here. It would be hard to explain if you got caught again when you went back."

"Alright then, I'll go straight to town."

Ling Silang suggested, "Let's leave the village when it's almost dawn. It's very early, and no one from the village will be out yet, so you don't have to worry about running into anyone."

Du Mingxian glanced outside again; it was really dark. She had no choice but to accept Ling Silang's suggestion.

After the two finished their meal, they had some free time. There were books in the space, but the books on her bookshelf were all in simplified Chinese characters, while this dynasty used traditional Chinese characters. Even if Ling Silang picked them up to read, many of the characters would look awkward.

"Go farm."

Du Mingxian led Ling Silang to start tilling the land and planting. She could plant with her mind, but since the two of them were idle anyway, it would be good to tidy up the space together.

Seeing Ling Silang wielding the hoe, Du Mingxian was absolutely certain that he was cured. Look at how he was digging; he looked really good.

At first, Du Mingxian kept working, but later... she simply stopped working, picked a lot of strawberries, sat to the side, ate, and watched Ling Silang work.

When she saw he was tired and her conscience bothered her, she would go up to him and feed him a strawberry, and then he would be able to do a lot of tilling again in one go.

It reminded her of an advertising slogan from her past life: "Charge for five minutes, standby time for two hours."

This word is very fitting for Ling Silang at this moment.

"This winter there will be a food shortage and many places may suffer from disasters. If you want to go to the capital to take the exam, you should go to the capital as early as possible. The earlier you go, the safer you will be on the road."
