Coming back from Tong Mama’s Private Kitchen, Jiang Nuo was a bit unhappy. It wasn’t because Mu Qiuniang’s thods were too cruel (if he had done it, it would’ve been much uglier), but what’s the deal with Xu Ruoxuan’s second senior brother?
How co he fell for Mu Qiuniang at first sight just like him?
Although having soone like your own wife proves your wife’s charm, and falling in love at first sight shows good taste, this romantic rival is just too oblivious, right?
Didn’t he see that his wife was already taken? What’s with that saintly face of "I love you, but you don’t love "?
"Wife, do you think I’m more handso, or is that guy more handso?" Jiang Nuo thought it over and couldn’t resist, so he ran into the kitchen and asked his wife, who was making a midnight snack.
In the middle of the night, Mu Qiuniang didn’t plan to make anything complicated, so she just made so sweet wine eggs. The sweet wine was naturally brewed from the Spirit Rice she grew, and the eggs were laid by chickens raised on Spirit Rice, brimming with Spiritual Energy.
Such things were like a drop in the ocean for soone with cultivation as high as hers, having little effect. But for a newbie like Jiang Nuo, it was like a Divine Power Replenishing Pill; eating a bowl was equivalent to half a day of cultivation.
"Wife, why aren’t you saying anything? Could it be you think he’s more handso than ?"
Mu Qiuniang was speechless: "Who is he?"
She was busy, couldn’t he stop disrupting?
"It’s Xu Ruoxuan’s second senior brother."
"Oh."
"Don’t just ’oh’. You haven’t answered my question, am I more handso or is he?"
"You’re handso!" She absolutely wouldn’t say "each has their own rits", otherwise this guy would go on forever.
"Really? Wife, you’re not just trying to make happy, right?" Jiang Nuo looked skeptical.
"Really, truer than a pearl. Do you want one?" Mu Qiuniang even asked intentionally; if he wanted, she’d imdiately take out a Pearl Clam and shell one for him.
"Wife, shouldn’t these lavish things be done by n?" Jiang Nuo suddenly felt aggrieved.
Having such a capable wife certainly ca with significant pressure! Look, if he wanted to act like a big shot in the future, he’d have to think it through, lest what he brought out was outdated compared to what his wife considered leftovers.
Mu Qiuniang thought carefully and said, "I can let you shell it."
"..." They’re completely not on the sa wavelength, can’t they have a friendly conversation? However, he rated his wife’s ability to change the topic at ten out of ten, but deducted ninety points to keep her humble.
Jiang Nuo wandered around the house for a while, and Mu Qiuniang’s sweet egg was ready to eat once it boiled.
"Wife," he suddenly reappeared, "is that guy trying to chase you?"
"Which guy?" Mu Qiuniang was a bit bewildered.
Seeing so many people in one day, how was she supposed to know which one it was?
"Xu Ruoxuan’s second senior brother."
Mu Qiuniang: "..." Was he picking a fight with the senior brother?
Besides, Xu Ruoxuan’s hands were chopped off by her; with such deep hatred, how could he think the second senior brother would still like her?
"Where did you see that from?"
"From head to toe, it was obvious. Don’t tell you didn’t see it? Wife, don’t play dumb, playing dumb isn’t cute, you need to clear this up..." Jiang Nuo reminded her, "Don’t forget, you’re a taken woman."
"I said it, I have a husband." Mu Qiuniang confessed honestly.
"See, he likes you, gotcha?"
Mu Qiuniang: "..." So he was just fishing for words from her all along.
"There’s no unbreakable wall, only a hoe not diligent enough. Wife, you must stand firm, you’re a married woman, mustn’t have any wavering." Jiang Nuo gave her a "lesson," reinforcing the central idea of "I only have one husband," centered on himself.
Mu Qiuniang solved his long-windedness with one move: "The sweet wine egg is boiling, do you want to drink it?"
"Yes! Of course, I want it, I love the sweet wine egg my wife makes, it’s so delicious..." The aroma made Jiang Nuo drool.
The philosophy lesson could wait for later; there would be plenty of ti in the future.
"Help get a bowl."
"Right away." Jiang Nuo cheerfully opened the cupboard and took out two White Jade porcelain bowls.
The porcelain was thin and translucent, just like jade. On the bowl, Mu Qiuniang had painted a lotus with deep green porcelain colors—a lush and vibrant twin lotus.
The flower wasn’t painted on the surface of the bowl; it seed embedded in the porcelain layer. You could see the blossoming twin lotus from both the inside and outside of the bowl.
However, outside was the flower in full bloom, while inside was the budding blossom.
Amazingly, when hot soup was poured into the bowl, the twin lotus inside would slowly bloom with the change in temperature until it looked exactly like the one outside.
This astonishing craftsmanship used to amaze Jiang Nuo. He thought she must have bought it at great cost from so Master. He even felt mildly worried: Shouldn’t these bowls be expensive? Seeing his wife using them without any hint of reluctance, she truly was a rich lady!
After finding out his wife was a cultivator, he was sure—his wife was indeed a genuine rich lady!
After filling a bowl, Jiang Nuo happily drank it. Indeed, his wife’s skills were superb; one sip brought comfort to both his body and mind.
"Wife, you’re amazing!"
"If you like it, have so more."
"Hehe... I want to have a bit more, wife, may I?"
Mu Qiuniang, teased, coldly hinted with her eyes: "Get lost!"
"Sure, sure, wife, let’s get lost together! I’ll hold you, you hold , and we’ll roll onto the bed..."
"Do you still want to eat?" Mu Qiuniang’s face reddened. This guy, doesn’t feel right unless he teases her!
"Eat, eat, eat..." While drinking the soup, he gazed at her with a fiery look, as if he wasn’t drinking soup, but watching her.
Mu Qiuniang suddenly felt bashful and angry. She recalled the last ti when, as he drank the soup, he suddenly insisted on taking off her clothes, saying he wanted to taste her down there...
Mu Qiuniang was about to cry.
This man, so shaless!
"Jiang Nuo, if you keep this up, I... I won’t talk to you tonight, you sleep in the living room alone."
"Don’t do that, sleeping alone is so lonely and cold. We should sleep together. As long as we’re together, even if we sleep in the living room, I’d be happy. Ah, no, sleeping in the street would expose you to others! We better stay ho, it’s safer..."
"..."
"Hehe... wife, why don’t we try it on the balcony tonight? We can turn off the lights, you hold onto the railing, and I’ll hug you from behind..."
"Do you have any sha?"
"What do I need sha for? Can I eat it? Can’t get a wife with sha."
"..."
