“Mmm…”

Her lips were instantly taken away, making it difficult for her to breathe, and she struggled desperately.

He looked utterly enthralled, forcing himself to lift his head; his eyes were filled with unsatisfied desire.

“Little thing, you’re so sweet, so beautiful…”

“You, stop messing around, my body hasn’t even recovered yet.”

Liu Sisi’s voice was weak and coquettish, accompanied by clearly rapid breathing. It didn’t even sound like she was talking but rather whispering sweet nothings.

However, the wind that came out of her mouth was filled with a sweet aroma.

Perhaps her words had an effect. He stared intently at her hazy eyes for a long time, then reluctantly rolled over and hugged her tightly in his arms again.

The sensation pressed against her from behind nearly burned her entire body.

She trembled, instinctively curling up her body, hoping to give herself a little more breathing room.

She was right; her body hadn’t fully recovered yet and couldn’t withstand his repeated torment and exploration. Besides, she was already in his arms – it was only a matter of time. There was no need to rush.

“Hurry up and sleep! We have to get up early tomorrow to go to the market.”

“Let go of me! How can I sleep when you’re holding me like this?” As she spoke, Liu Sisi struggled a few more times, trying to wriggle out of Di Yelei’s arms.

Di Yelei stifled a laugh, thinking about who would automatically cling onto him in the middle of the night.

“Really can’t sleep? If you really can’t sleep, I don’t mind getting some exercise, using up some energy so you can sleep.”

As he spoke, Di Yelei tried to get up again.

“No! I’m asleep, I’m going to sleep right away, don’t come back!”

Liu Sisi hurriedly closed her eyes tightly, firmly grasping her own clothes with both her hands. Due to her nervousness, her small hands were shivering non-stop. She was afraid he would try to “exercise” again, that would be a huge loss for her.

What a pity!

Di Yelei couldn’t describe the feeling in his heart as he looked at Liu Sisi, who was gradually falling asleep in his arms. He smelled the fragrant, soft, and sweet aura unique to women, tossed and turned, and was unable to fall asleep for a long time.

Before the break of dawn, Di Yelei led Liu Sisi on their journey.

Liu Sisi still insisted on bringing Di Xuan and Di Ying with them. She didn’t feel comfortable leaving two such young children at home alone.

Di Yelei slung the game he caught yesterday over his shoulder: an elk, two roe deer, four pheasants, and a few rabbits. He didn’t keep any for himself but carried everything at once.

“Not all of this game sells well every day. Some people like rabbit meat, some like pheasant. Whatever we can’t sell, we can eat ourselves.” Di Yelei hesitated to continue, but Liu Sisi understood the unfinished message: he was still worried about that huge expense of 20 taels of silver.

Today, Liu Sisi carried a basket of mushrooms on her back, held Di Ying, who was still not awake, in her arms, and accompanied Di Xuan, who held two bamboo baskets: one filled with loquats and the other with thorny elaeagnus.

Seeing Liu Sisi bring these along, Di Yelei initially wanted to stop her, but he didn’t say anything when the words reached his lips.

They hurried along the way, and by the time they arrived at the market, the sky was already beginning to brighten.

The marketplace in the countryside wasn’t like the big cities; villagers were used to getting up early. At the moment, day had barely dawned, yet many people gathered in the market.

Di Yelei confidently carried the game to the end of the street on the edge, next to the place where poultry was sold, before finally putting down the game from his shoulder.

Liu Sisi was also extremely tired!

The mushrooms on her back weren’t heavy, and the little YingEr in her arms was lightweight, but holding her while walking through the night was no easy task.

Sensing they had arrived, Liu Sisi almost sat down directly on the ground.

Di Yelei quickly arranged the game and then took Di Ying from Liu Sisi’s arms.

“Tired, huh? There’s a place selling food over there. You two go and fill up your stomachs first.”

While talking, Di Yelei took out a few copper coins from his pocket and handed them to Liu Sisi.

Liu Sisi looked around and found that the people selling things around her were either not eating or eating dry grains brought from home: “We’ll go later, YingEr is still not awake. Besides, we haven’t sold anything yet; how can we start spending money?”
