Chapter 239: Chapter 218 Your Son-in-law Is Quite Impressive Qin Ye heard his wife saying this and felt a pang of heartache, “I’ll go serve the dishes.” He knew that his mother-in-law had already prepared the meal. Madam Rong also hurried over to help serve. In no time, the table was full of dishes, including several hearty ones. The twins were naturally very happy about all the delicious food. It was like celebrating the New Year. No, ever since his elder sister-in-law and her parents were here, their family felt like it was New Year’s every day. After dinner, Rong Yan saw Qin Ye about to go out. “Where are you going?” “Wife, I’m going up the mountain for a bit. You should go to bed early and don’t wait for me.” Although he couldn’t earn as much as his wife right now, he couldn’t lag too far behind. He still needed to make an effort. When Rong Yan heard this, she understood that he was going hunting in the mountains. “Alright, be careful then.” There was no need to stop a man from wanting to earn money, so she did not stop him. Qin Ye was very pleased; he knew his wife understood him best. “Wife, I’m off then.” With his things ready, he prepared to head out. Rong Yan suddenly remembered something and called out to him, “Hold on, I’ll give you a small sachet to ward off mosquitoes. Wear it when you go up the mountain later.” She took the small sachet out of her pocket and handed it over. Qin Ye took the sachet, and in the night, his eyes shone even brighter. After putting the small sachet into his pocket, he left. When Rong Yan saw him leave, she was about to turn and go back inside when she almost bumped into her mother. “Mom, why are you standing behind me without a sound? Lucky for me I don’t have a heart condition, otherwise, I would have been scared to death.” Madam Rong couldn’t stand talks of illness and immediately spat a few times, “Nonsense all day long; also, I just walked over, you just didn’t hear me, that’s all.” “By the way, where is Qin going with a wood cutter? Is he heading up the mountain?” Rong Yan nodded her head, “That’s right, to make money! Ah, truly, no matter where you are, earning money is always so stressful.” “What do you mean ‘stressful’? Why don’t you persuade him a bit? Anyway, our family isn’t short of money now, there’s no need for him to work during the day and then go hunting in the mountains at night to earn money. What if he ruins his health?” Madam Rong was a bit worried. “Mom, don’t worry about it. Him wanting to make money is a sign of being proactive. Why would we stop him? Besides, he’s young and healthy; he won’t break down that easily. And if worse comes to worst, have you forgotten about me? I can take care of him.” Madam Rong: ... How can you be so full of absurd justifications? At this time, Rong Wenming also came out; he had obviously heard the conversation between mother and daughter. “I think Yanyan is right. It’s good for a man to have ambition; there’s no need to stop him.” As a man himself, Rong Wenming could of course understand Qin Ye’s feelings. He probably just wanted to earn more money. Madam Rong looked at her daughter and husband, who were on the same page, and couldn’t help but roll her eyes, “Fine, you’re both right.” Rong Wenming then added, “Actually, you could make some nice food for him to replenish his energy.” Madam Rong: “Do you even need to tell me? Who doesn’t know to care for their own son-in-law?” Hearing this, Rong Wenming couldn’t help but smile. “Alright, I’m going back to my room. You and dad can go about your business.” She had finished her evening chores and needed to get up early the next day, so it was best to go to bed early. Rong Yan also went back to her room, “Goodnight.” Meanwhile, Qin Ye went up the mountain, and his luck seemed to be looking after him as well. He didn’t come back empty-handed; as soon as he arrived in the deep mountains, he followed the sounds and discovered a wild boar den. He quickly took them out. He got two wild boars and let the smaller wild boars go. However, carrying the two adult wild boars down the mountain proved to be a bit of a challenge. Mainly because the male boar looked quite large. It was not easy to carry the female boar. After some thought, he dug a deep pit with a torch and put one of the wild boars in it first to prevent other wild beasts from smelling the blood and eating it. He carried the other one directly back home. After two trips... by the time he placed both wild boars in the yard, it was already midnight. Qin Ye thought that the smell of blood was quite strong, and it wouldn’t be good if people in the yard smelled it. After thinking it over, he decided to take the wild boars into town. However, he needed to go back inside to get the keys to the house in town. When he entered the house, he didn’t turn on the light, moving carefully... The next second, the lights inside turned on. “You’re back? Did you catch something big?” She had not slept soundly earlier and heard him coming back once already, but was too lazy to check. “Yep, two wild boars. I’m thinking of taking them to town now...” He might not come back for the night. Upon hearing him mention catching two, Rong Yan fully woke up. No wonder he had come back earlier. She immediately sat up from her lying position, “It’s the dead of night and you want to make a delivery? Have you lost your mind? Did you forget about my space? I’ll help you put them inside; it so happens that I need to go to town tomorrow.” Qin Ye was actually quite uncomfortable with his wife’s extraordinary existence. Although his wife said it would not harm him, he was still a bit worried. “Wife, I’m fine, and besides, I wasn’t quiet when I came back just now, in case dad and mom saw...” He remembered that only the two of them knew about this space. “If my parents knew, they would probably be awake by now. Alright, no more talking, I’ll handle it.” Rong Yan immediately put on her clothes and got out of bed. When she went outside, she immediately saw the two wild boars on the ground. The corners of her mouth twitched slightly, “Well, that’s pretty big.” Without saying much, she directly collected the two wild boars into the space. Qin Ye: ... This kind of sudden disappearance, this magic—he was still finding it hard to adjust. Rong Yan patted the distracted Qin Ye with her hand and whispered, “All right, go take a bath! You’re all smelly, and we need to sleep early, as we have to get up early tomorrow.” Qin Ye nodded, “Okay.” After Rong Yan went inside, Qin Ye took some clothes to change into and went to bathe. When he returned to the room after his bath, he found his wife still awake. “How come you’re not sleeping?” As he spoke, he climbed onto the bed. But because he was afraid the chill from his freshly bathed body might freeze his wife, he didn’t move closer to her. Rong Yan thought to herself that being woken up like that, who could fall asleep? But she teased him with a playful remark, “Waiting for you. I can’t sleep without you here.” Qin Ye, an honest man, felt his heart race upon hearing those words, and warmth flooded his face increasingly. He said dryly, “I, I’m a bit cold...” Rong Yan, looking at his earlobes quickly reddening under the lamplight, smiled slightly. She hadn’t expected him to be so sensitive to teasing, showing such a strong reaction. She snuggled closer, murmuring softly, “I don’t mind, one of us is cold, the other is warm; we’ll complement each other perfectly.” Qin Ye: ... Now his face was burning as if on fire. Rong Yan naturally felt his heart beating too fast, and thinking that he had had a tough night, she decided that he should rest well. So she stopped teasing him and drew back from his embrace. “Alright, it’s getting late, let’s sleep! Oh, and wake me up early too tomorrow, I’ll go to town with you.” It’s better to go to the black market in the morning to sell things. Qin Ye: ... How was he supposed to sleep now? But seeing his wife yawn and cover her mouth, the arousal that had just arisen was forcefully suppressed. “Okay.” He reached out to turn off the light. However, he was a bit restless and found it hard to sleep. A young man’s agitation isn’t something that can settle down instantly, especially when the woman he loves is sleeping beside him. He controlled his breathing, trying not to disturb his wife... he didn’t know how long it took, but he eventually drifted off to sleep in a daze. After all, having climbed the mountain twice, he had expended a lot of energy. Even if he went to bed late, he would still wake up very early the next day. Qin Ye opened his eyes and glanced at his sleeping wife, his usually stern eyes immediately filled with warmth and... endless affection. Whenever he woke up and saw his wife’s sleeping face, he felt a sense of happiness. He carefully got out of bed and dressed. Since it was still early, he didn’t wake her up right away. He opened the door and went outside to wash up... He wasn’t in a hurry to eat, but first went to the backyard to chop wood. Rong Yan, remembering what happened last night, woke up quite early too. She opened her eyes and wasn’t surprised to find the space beside her empty. She picked up the watch beside her pillow to check the time and saw that it was only 5:30 am. Well, all right! There were things to do, so better get up early... Madam Rong had prepared breakfast and was surprised to see her daughter as she came out of the kitchen, “Oh, this is rare! You’re actually not sleeping till nearly noon. What’s up, couldn’t sleep because you had too much sleep last night?” Rong Yan’s mouth twitched, “Mom, when do I sleep till noon? I get up at seven or eight at the latest. And my extended sleep, isn’t it all thanks to having such a good mom?” “Don’t butter up your old mom, she doesn’t fall for those tricks,” she said, though her barely suppressed smile showed how good her mood was. But Rong Yan already knew her mother’s character well, “I’m not buttering up to you, I’m stating the facts. By the way, where’s your son-in-law? Why don’t I see him?” Could it be that Qin had already left? Madam Rong rolled her eyes at her, “Do you think Qin is as lazy as you? He’s been chopping wood since early morning!” It was a good thing they had a well in the courtyard; otherwise, he would probably have an extra chore of fetching water every day. While they were talking, Qin Ye came out from the backyard. Seeing his wife get up, he was about to approach, but his mother-in-law spoke up first, “Qin, in the future you don’t have to chop wood so early. Just leave it for me...” Qin Ye would never let his mother-in-law chop wood. “Mother, it’s okay, if I chop it once, it lasts for several days, and I’m not tired.” Madam Rong didn’t believe his claim of ‘not being tired,’ as it was all physical labor and there was no way that wouldn’t be exhausting. “You came back late last night, right? You could have slept a bit longer. Even though you’re young, you still need to take care of your body.” Qin Ye had never been cared for with such sincerity by an elder before, and his heart was warmed. “Mother, I’m fine...” Rong Yan interrupted him and said directly to her mother, “Mom, your son-in-law is quite strong, you know. Last night, he hunted two wild boars weighing several hundred pounds each.” “What? Two wild boars?” Madam Rong’s eyes darted around urgently, “Where are they?”
