"There’s nothing that can’t be solved with a wham, bam, thank you, ma’am; if there is, then make it two rounds!"
Previously, Lao Si inexplicably seemed angry. Then, after she did this and that, he wasn’t angry anymore.
Considering how much Lao Si had sweated, she decided to fend for herself.
She covered him with a blanket, letting him lie down obediently, while she dressed herself in her clothes.
First, she boiled a big pot of hot water and lugged the wooden bath tub in, then she dragged Lao Si and pressed him into the tub.
While Lao Si was bathing, she took the opportunity to cook some rice and prepared a few side dishes.
The husband and wife enjoyed their meal greatly, and the atmosphere was quite good.
However, as night fell, Lao Si seemed to have regained some energy and pinned her down again.
This man suddenly became very clingy, seeming to really enjoy sticking to her and engaging in those activities. Even though those activities were exhausting and tiring, he seemed to enjoy them none the less?
Anyway, after another ridiculous night passed, the next day, when she woke up, Lao Si was sleeping soundly.
She felt a bit guilty, wondering if she had gone too far last night?
Restraint, she needed to show some restraint!
This couldn’t go on all the time!
But sometimes, when the urge came, she really couldn’t control herself.
She tiptoed out of the room, thinking it best to let Lao Si rest more, so she didn’t wake him up.
When she came out of the house, she saw Tie Yi approaching in big strides.
"Mistress, Master Zhan wants to see you!"
Dong Huiying’s face went blank, as if she had been possessed by Lao Si at that moment.
Truthfully, she was having a hard time getting used to this title; it sounded odd.
"Actually, Tie Yi, I think you could just call me by my name?"
She appeared to be open to discussion, but Tie Yi had an expression that left no room for negotiation.
"You are the Master’s wife!"
"But I’m not your Master’s mom, every time you call me Mistress, I feel like you’re calling for your Master’s mother."
She frowned in distress.
The expression on Tie Yi’s face was really... hard to describe.
What on earth was she thinking?
This young girl had a very changeable personality.
Treating different people with different attitudes and showing different faces.
She could be goofy like a fool or aloof like a nymph; she realized she really couldn’t see through her.
Though she disliked the title "Mistress," since Zhan Hanyun had matters to discuss with her, she didn’t delay and went with Tie Yi to Zhan Hanyun’s study.
Inside the study, there was a letter on the desk.
Zhan Hanyun’s brow was furrowed tightly, "I’ve come across some information."
"The Seventh Princess’s female servants have been eliminated by Nu Woer, and Nu Woer is preparing to conduct a transaction with Chen Ahhu of the Fierce Tiger Sect. The transaction mainly involves two herbs."
Dong Huiying’s spirits were lifted, recalling she had once assumed the identity of "Chen Qiqi," "Has the transaction time been set?"
"It has!" Zhan Hanyun said, "At midnight tonight!"
Dong Huiying licked her lips, "I must get those two herbs!"
Tie Yi hesitated for a moment, then spoke, "Before the Master’s accident, he secretly sent a letter to the Fierce Tiger Sect. The Sect Master, Chen Ahhu, once had a sister who died young in an accident."
"But it wasn’t an accident, she died at the hands of Nu Woer, hence I speculate that even if Master Chen was previously affiliated with Nu Woer, now, the situation is likely different."
