But the two had already agreed, no babies within two years, they would wait until Yun Chunnuan turned twenty.
As for that certain madman, Yun Chunnuan never asked about him.
Yelyu Lie never mentioned him either, as if that person had never appeared.
Over in the Great Xia Country, perhaps because that person had sent some message, no one ever came to cause trouble.
One would think these peaceful days would continue like this.
Until New Year’s Eve, when the Royal Palace was to hold another banquet.
There had been events during festivals like the Mid-Autumn Festival, but Yun Chunnuan always made excuses not to go, as the palace no longer had anyone she wished to visit, and being with those she found repulsive was not as pleasant as staying home.
But the banquet on New Year’s Eve was different.
Even when Yelyu Lie was at the border, he would rush back for it.
This was a broken rule, but it was also a major reason why Yelyu Lie returned to the manor every year.
"Husband, have I gained weight again? This outfit is too tight..."
Yun Chunnuan held a newly made outfit from a month ago, which she had designed for herself.
The fabric was beautiful, the style exquisite, she loved it very much. But the rose-red base with gold patterns made it too formal. Even Qiao’er teased her that she seemed to be getting married again, so she took it off and never wore it again.
She thought of wearing it for the New Year, but the outfit was now so tight it was uncomfortable.
Yelyu Lie was also changing, as they were going to the palace soon.
He usually preferred black, brown, and dark blue, almost never wearing bright colors. Today, however, he wore a long purple robe embroidered with gold patterns, covered by a fur-lined long coat, with a white jade belt around his waist, adding a regal air to his radiant and handsome face.
Upon hearing his little darling’s disgruntled complaints, he raised his eyes to look over.
He saw his little darling in bright rose-red, looking exceptionally alluring today.
Compared to the previous thin and bony figure, he absolutely adored her current self, loving her so much he couldn’t get enough...
In short, he loved her to bits!
"Tsk, I need to lose weight. Even Yaoyao has started slimming down, if I gain more weight, I’ll really have to trade outfits with her."
Yun Chunnuan, when bored, either studied beauty products or made clothes for herself.
Ba Yaoyao was envious but with her full figure, those styles on her would be a disaster!
Yun Chunnuan took the opportunity to pique her interest in losing weight, saying if she slimmed down, she’d give her entire wardrobe to her.
Ba Yaoyao was overjoyed, and immediately embarked on a weight-loss journey.
At first, everyone thought it was a joke, but after a month without seeing her, she really had slimmed down a lot, with a sharp chin coming out.
Then looking at herself...
Hmm, the Little Princess’s original figure was too good, making Yun Chunnuan mistakenly believe she’d never gain weight no matter what she ate.
Now look, secretly in the mirror, that round little face, couldn’t bear to look!
"Lose weight my foot!"
Who knew, as soon he heard her mention losing weight, the man watching from afar immediately walked over.
He pulled her into his embrace, bringing her to the mirror, whispering something in her ear.
Yun Chunnuan: "..."
He slightly lowered his head, from the bronze mirror, she could clearly see him nibbling at her soft white little ear.
Yun Chunnuan’s dainty face immediately turned red.
What he said next made her shiver.
She thought about the style he mentioned...
"You shameless thing! You said it’s a birthday gift for me! Clearly, you’re only satisfying your own desires!"
The Little Princess’s birthday was in March, while Yun Chunnuan’s was in February, just after the New Year.
This giant dressing mirror was brought in on her birthday, supposedly so she wouldn’t have to go into the storage ring space when she was being vain. So he custom-made her a large mirror.
Even though the clarity didn’t match modern mercury mirrors, it was nonetheless an extravagant birthday gift from her husband.
Yun Chunnuan adored it.
But never did she suspect his little intentions...
Such a rogue!
Every time she was exhausted, with no time to notice anything else, how could she pay attention to these?
A rogue, a rogue!
"You don’t know how beautiful that looks, so beautiful I want to swallow you whole, not even spitting out the bone fragments.
No dieting, if you get skinny, it’ll be gone."
In the bronze mirror, he was clearly feeling a bit restless.
"Yelyu Lie!"
Yun Chunnuan slapped his hand away, "You said no intimacy during the day, what are you doing now?"
"Uh, it’s getting dark soon."
He spoke from behind her.
Scorching like fire.
Yun Chunnuan’s face grew redder and redder...
He added, "There’s still time, otherwise..."
With a princess carry, he picked her up horizontally and even juggled her slightly, "What weight, still as light as a feather."
Yun Chunnuan, bewildered yet amused, "I beg you, even if I weighed two hundred pounds, with your strength, carrying me would still feel light as a feather."
"Two hundred pounds? How many kids? Am I that strong?"
Yun Chunnuan: "..."
What a lecher, even when there’s no road, he’d forge one with his clunker!
Nearly two months into marriage, right?
He spouts so much suggestive talk every day, and she still hasn’t gotten used to it!
Ultimately, Yelyu Lie couldn’t bring himself to bully his little wife before entering the palace.
But a simple taste was unavoidable.
Yun Chunnuan changed out of the tight outfit and put on a lotus-colored long coat similar to her husband’s purple attire.
She made it herself too.
She wasn’t sure what the material was, kind of like modern suede. She made a qipao-style short coat and a large pleated skirt.
It was paired with a short-sleeved cape.
The cape had a pointy hood with a white pom-pom dangling from it, looking very cute.
However, the top still felt a bit snug...
