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

Du Mingxian thought of the incense in her space before. She used to try to use it sparingly, since she didn't need it and wanted to give it to Ling Silang. There was only so much of it, and it would be gone once it was used up.

But now... it's just been refreshed, so it's clear that things can be refreshed, but I don't know in what way.

After checking on Ling Silang and finding him alright, she went back to her room, took out all the incense from her spatial storage, and quietly placed it on her bed before going to her room to prepare medicine for Ling Silang.

Zhou was a little worried about her. "Fourth sister-in-law, shall I fry it?"

"It's alright, Second Sister-in-law, I'll do it."

Zhou didn't ask any more questions, but instead asked with bright eyes, "Did you really catch a wild boar?"

"Hmm, two heads are too conspicuous. Let's have some of the older brothers go up the mountain to carry them back when it gets dark."

"Yes, yes, yes." Zhou was overjoyed.

Liu was cooking when she heard this and was happy. It seemed that the family's life was getting better and better because of her fourth sister-in-law, which made her feel very good.

Which family in the village can afford to eat meat every few days?

Who can send all their children to school at once?

Mrs. Liu was grateful to Du Mingxian.

When Du Mingxian brought the medicine in after it was brewed, Ling Silang was still asleep. She was thinking about how to feed him the medicine when Ling's mother and father walked in.

"Have your father help Silang halfway up, then you can feed him; it'll be easier for him to swallow that way."

"it is good."

Ling's father stepped forward, picked up Ling Silang, and sat behind him, letting Ling Silang lean against him. After Du Mingxian tested the temperature, she fed him the medicine little by little.

After the medicine was finished, Du Mingxian took the bowl and left. Ling's father put him down, and Ling Silang slowly opened his eyes.

When he saw his parents, Ling Silang's voice trembled, "Father, Mother, where is my wife? She..."

"It's alright, it's alright. It's my fault for speaking slowly when I came back. That blood wasn't Mingxian's; it was wild boar's. Mingxian got splattered with blood when she was killing the wild boar."

Ling Silang felt a little relieved after hearing this, but after glancing around the room and not seeing anyone, he was still a little worried. "Where is she?"

"I just gave you your medicine, and now someone's gone to cook for you."

Ling Silang seemed lost in thought, somewhat absent-minded.

Ling's father and mother exchanged a glance, both seeing the smile in each other's eyes.

Ling's mother teased, "You rascal, when I asked you to get married, you didn't want to. I had to coax you a lot before you agreed. It hasn't been that long, and you're already so attached to your wife?"

Ling Silang blushed slightly. "Mother, she's different."

"What's the difference? Aren't they all women?"

Ling Silang fell silent, using silence to resist his mother's teasing.

Seeing him like this, Ling's mother found it amusing. "Alright, we just came to check on you. The doctor said you were frightened and need to take your medicine and rest a bit more."

"Ah."

“Let’s go, old man, we’re making our son uncomfortable here.”

After the two left, Ling Silang kept looking towards the door.

After leaving, Ling's mother went to the kitchen and saw that Du Mingxian had already prepared the noodles and soup, but hadn't cooked the noodles yet. "Mingxian, Silang is awake. Go see him. I'll cook the noodles."

"Okay." Du Mingxian lifted her foot and left, her steps slightly hurried.

Upon entering the room, their eyes met, and both had something to say, yet neither knew where to begin.

Du Mingxian slowly stepped forward and explained softly, "I'm fine. That's just wild boar blood. Are you... afraid of blood?"

She couldn't think of any other reason besides this.

Ling Silang stared intently at her. "I don't faint at the sight of blood."

That's because he was frightened. Ling Silang was physically weak and died young in his previous life, with only two years of lifespan. So when he saw the bloody scene, he couldn't bear it and fainted.

"The doctor said you were frightened, so just take good care of yourself from now on," Du Mingxian said, sitting down on the edge of the bed.

Ling Silang had always wanted to hold Du Mingxian's hand, and although he mustered up his courage several times, he never managed to do it. But at this moment, he naturally reached out and took her hand.

He held her hand tightly in his own, saying, "I was worried about you. Seeing you covered in blood made my heart race."

God knows how terrified he was of losing her at that moment.

Du Mingxian never expected that this normal conversation would suddenly turn into a confession.

For a moment, she didn't know what to say.

Although they lived two lives, the feelings between them were almost nonexistent.

In her past life with Wu Daniu, she had no feelings for him. At that time, she didn't understand anything. She only knew that once a woman marries into a family, her husband becomes her everything. She needed to take good care of her husband and his family. Being a good wife and mother was what a woman should do.

As she encountered many things and grew older, she realized that she had no feelings for Wu Daniu.

In her previous life as an assassin, she grew up in an environment where everyone was equal and had freedom in love and marriage. However, as an assassin, she was in danger every day and had no time for romance.

This is the first time in two lifetimes that someone has treated her like this. She is a little nervous, a little... flustered, and even feels a tingling sensation all over her body, which she doesn't know why.

"No, it's nothing, I'm fine, it's just blood from the wild boar."

"I know, Mother said so, but I'm still worried." Ling Silang just stared at Du Mingxian. Du Mingxian felt like she had lived two lives in vain. If she were given another life, she would actually be... controlled by a little brat?

The previous life of Wu Daniu was very distant to her. This new beginning was different. She had forgotten some things from that life, and what she remembered more deeply was the previous generation.

Du Mingxian suppressed her panic and looked up at him earnestly, "Don't you know I'm a fairy? Fairies are never in trouble, so don't worry."

"Mm," Ling Silang responded softly.

The two sat there in silence when they heard Ling's mother's footsteps and calls from outside, "Si Lang, your meal is ready."

Du Mingxian tried to pull her hand back, but Ling Silang firmly refused to let go. Du Mingxian was strong, and she was sure she could pull her hand back if she used more force, but she was afraid that he was too fragile and might get hurt again, so she didn't move.

Ling's mother came in at this moment. She saw Ling Silang holding his daughter-in-law's hand as soon as she came in, but she only glanced at her and then walked over calmly as if she hadn't seen her. "This noodle dish was made by your wife. I just brought it to you. Eat up."

"Mother, give it to me." Du Mingxian took the bowl and took the opportunity to pull her hand back from his.

Ling's mother handed the bowl to Du Mingxian, saying, "You two talk. We won't eat for a while. You stay with Silang for now."

"it is good."

Du Mingxian picked up the bowl, tested it, and found it wasn't too hot. She figured that Ling's mother must have let it cool down before bringing it over. "Eat quickly, the noodles aren't hot."

"Okay." Ling Silang picked up the noodles and began to eat slowly.

Du Mingxian sat quietly to the side, watching him eat noodles.

For a moment, the room was filled with a peaceful and beautiful atmosphere.

After finishing his meal, Ling Silang asked, "Did you see those two children today?"
