After Being Reborn and Regaining Her Identity, the True Heiress Is Spoiled in the Seventies-Chapter 91: That gorgeous look almost made him blink.

Pei Shuangshuang's beloved sister-in-law had become her aunt, so she didn't dare make trouble for her little uncle!

These were all the thoughts in Pei Shuangshuang's mind. Zhi Xia really didn't know. Even if she did know, she would probably just laugh at her for her wild fantasies.

They didn't even dare touch the An family's things when it was their own family. As outsiders, they were the first to covet those things.

Zhi Xia had just finished arranging the things on the table when she heard Pei Xiang call out "Little uncle!" She then noticed that Pei Jing had come in.

Turning to look, he stood in the doorway. The slanting sunshine shone on him, complementing his military uniform and adding a hint of sacred radiance to his slightly intoxicated appearance.

Zhi Xia walked over and grabbed his arm, trying to make her actions seem as natural as possible. But in reality, her heart was still nervous.

Adding up her two lifetimes, apart from that one time she was controlled by drugs, this was still the first time she had taken the initiative to get close to a man.

"How are you, did you drink too much?" Zhi Xia saw him be coerced by his two friends into drinking several cups. Not knowing his alcohol tolerance, she asked, "Do you feel unwell? Do you need to come in and rest first?"

The moment Zhi Xia's hand touched his arm, the muscles in Pei Jing's body also reflexively tensed up.

But remembering Old Pei's recent admonitions, afraid of frightening the young lady with too extreme a reaction, he could only force himself to calm down.

His adam's apple rolled as he didn't make a sound, following Zhi Xia into the room.

His usually tidy room looked a little messy now. The tofu on the bed had also been replaced with new bedding printed with mandarin ducks playing in the water. Double happiness papercuts were pasted to the headboard, and two pillows were neatly placed side by side against the headboard and draped with red pillowcases, everything exuding an air of joy.

Pei Jing wasn't drunk at all. Upon entering the room, he stopped Zhi Xia from supporting him and said, "Don't worry, I'm not drunk."

He wasn't a talkative person to begin with, and had no idea what else to say.

After a brief silence, he remembered Old Pei's instructions and said, "These past few days the authorities have been searching everywhere for spies, so the wedding reception is very simple. Don't take offense."

"I'm not offended. I know," Zhi Xia said with a smile. "I'm not an unreasonable child. Pei Jing, from now on I'm your wife."

Although she was young in years, getting married made her an adult. He couldn't keep treating her like a fragile doll.

Zhi Xia's earnest appearance made Pei Jing's heart stir. He nodded and said, "Mm, then you rest in the room. I'll go out and help first. If there's anything you don't understand, call for me, or call Pei Xiang too."

"Should I go out and help too?" Zhi Xia asked.

"No need, you rest. It's all trifling matters, no need for you to get involved." Pei Jing said.

Zhi Xia hadn't intended on going out to help anyway. As the new bride, it was unreasonable for her to start working as soon as she entered the household. But it was still necessary to make a polite offer.

If Pei Jing had really agreed to let her go out, it could only mean one of two things - either he was a complete blockhead, or he didn't care one bit about her.

Clearly neither of those were the case, so Zhi Xia was very satisfied.

It was just that he always had such a stern expression, making Zhi Xia somewhat apprehensive. She was afraid too much enthusiasm would annoy him, while too much aloofness wouldn't be conducive to developing their relationship.

Now that they were married, Zhi Xia still wanted to have a good life together. She didn't like living in cold formality. If they were only together purely for the sake of having a child, that would be quite disappointing.

The courtyard was being swept outside. Although water had been sprinkled, it still stirred up a lot of dust.

Zhi Xia hurriedly went to close the door. This time she didn't physically enter her space, but manipulated it with her consciousness. 𝒻𝓻𝑒ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝑛𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓁.𝑐𝘰𝓶

She, who had absolutely zero experience with romance, planned to ask someone for advice and research how she could win over the cold and aloof soldier brother before her.

When asking others for help, one should show sincerity by giving the other party a little sweetener first.

Unexpectedly, she received another wedding gift, two books. The genius doctor mysteriously told her they were good stuff and for her to read them together with her husband at night.

Zhi Xia wasn't some clueless child. She immediately guessed what kinds of books they were.

Completely disobedient, she took them out and opened them up. Sure enough, the content was somewhat embarrassing to bring up.

Knowing Zhi Xia was pregnant, the sex manual the genius doctor gave wasn't depicted in normal positions, but illustrated other methods that could be used during pregnancy to satisfy normal physiological needs.

Zhi Xia slapped the book shut and didn't dare sneak another peek.

Heavens! She hadn't even asked her question yet, and it was already so outrageously forward. If she did ask, the genius doctor would surely teach her to be quite a character!

Zhi Xia's mind flashed with a streak of black lines.

Weren't ancient people supposed to be very modest?

Why did she not detect a hint of restraint at all? On the contrary, the other party was even more uninhibited than herself!

It really made her break out in a sweat!

The Genius Doctor: "What's wrong? Why aren't you speaking? Don't tell me you snuck a peek and got frightened?"

That shouldn't be the case. Although she was from the modern era, a girl who dared to conceive before marriage probably wouldn't be so conservative.

Young Miss from the Modern Era: "No no, thank you for your kind intentions. Sister, you're truly too good to me, I don't even know how to repay you."

She didn't dare ask her remaining questions.

The Genius Doctor: "You're welcome. I have many more good things here. Wait until you've given birth, then I'll give them to you. I guarantee your future married life will be happy and perfect. If you really want to thank me, take a look over there for anything rare and just send me some at random."

Zhi Xia!!!

Thank you, but she didn't dare accept.

Crying woefully, Zhi Xia fished a big fish out of the sea and gave it to her, then silently bid her farewell.

As for improving their marital relations, she would slowly figure it out on her own. There was no rush anyway.

Feeling bored cooped up in the room, Zhi Xia continued knitting the sweater. She was almost done, just needing to finish the edging and two pockets. If she made an effort this afternoon, she should be able to complete it.

Zhi Xia was a very quick knitter, moving the needles and yarn so fast it was just a blur.

When she was done with everything, Zhi Xia looked satisfiedly at the finished product in her hands.

The clothes she was wearing were borrowed. She took them off and changed into a long-sleeved red dress that reached her calves. A sash was tied at her slender waist, and a short outer jacket on top, both the style and fabric exceptional, setting off her originally fair skin to appear even more luminous.

Zhi Xia let down her pinned up hair and tied it into a loose, messy fish tail braid stopping at the nape of her neck, securing it there with a hair tie. The front fringe was fixed neatly in place with a hair clip, only letting a few strands hang loosely in a casual style.

Looking at herself in the mirror, she looked quite good.

She put the military uniform she'd changed out of into the space washing machine to wash, not rushing to take it out and hang dry, because she still needed to put on a show of hanging it outside to dry tonight.

Time always flew fastest when one was busy. Pei Jing knocked on the door to call her out for dinner.

When Zhi Xia opened the door, her alluring appearance nearly made Pei Jing's eyes flash.
