Chapter 43: Chapter 41: The Greatest Test of Willpower!

Translator: 549690339

“You go to grandpa’s house and give him the vegetable buns, then come back. No matter what they say, just reply that you don’t know, understand?”

Liu Sisi instructed with apprehension, reaching out to touch Di Xuan’s topknot, but he ducked out of the way.

“I understand.”

Di Xuan turned and ran out the door, but Liu Sisi still caught sight of the charcoal residue on his fingertips.

He must have been hiding away practicing writing by himself again, right? It seemed that the child was genuinely at the age to start learning to write! Next time they went to the market, she’d have to buy him some paper and pens.

Picking up the last batch of baby bok choy from Aunt Zhang, Liu Sisi stir-fried a plate of vegetables and then set the cooked dishes on the table.

Di Yelei had put everything away by this point, but he still couldn’t help feeling uneasy: “I’ve divided the grain into three portions: one is placed next to the bowl cabinet, another is hidden behind the bowl cabinet, and the rest is in the cellar behind the house. The cellar isn’t deep enough, so I’ll dig it bigger someday to store more food.”

“That works. I’ve thought about it, and next time we go to the market, you can buy some bowls and dishes to bring back, as well as two pickle jars for me to make pickled cabbage. We also need to buy some oil; we can’t be without it, as the two children are growing.” 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝑒𝒷𝓃𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝑚

“Alright, there are still a few days until the next market, so it’s not too late to buy then. As for the pickling jars you mentioned, there are some in the cellar behind the house. They haven’t been used for a long time, so they might need thorough cleaning before use. In the next couple of days, I plan to chop some wood and rebuild the bathhouse, then make some benches and household items so that you won’t lack anything.”

“It’s good that we have jars. As for the cleaning work, I’ll take care of it!”

Liu Sisi’s eyes lit up as she patted Di Ying’s freshly washed hands, signaling her to come to the table.

“As for the bathhouse, make sure to build it sturdily. I’m terrified of those bugs. We also need to get a few more bamboo baskets and dustpans.”

A hand from the side quietly grabbed hers, firmly wrapping her small hand. Di Yelei’s eyes were on fire: “Sisi, you’re my lucky star.” This was his heartfelt feeling. His heart had never been as calm as it was at the moment. Just looking at the little woman in front of him, a sense of satisfaction filled his chest.

Seeing those burning eyes, Liu Sisi hurriedly dodged them, and her face quickly turned red.

“Don’t, don’t talk nonsense. The children are watching; it’s not right.”

As she spoke, she glanced at YingEr who pulled her hand away forcefully, but she could still feel the faint warmth on her hand.

Quickly using the chore of laying out the table to escape from him, she said, “…The old house is not far away. Xuan’er should be back by now. What if something went wrong?”

“There should be no problem. He’s walked this path many times. Don’t worry.”

Di Yelei wanted to come closer, but seeing Liu Sisi’s slender neck turn red, he stopped in his tracks.

“Dad, I’m back.” Like a gust of wind, Di Xuan ran back.

“Xuan’er is back. Hurry up and wash your hands for dinner.”

Liu Sisi quickly scanned Di Xuan and didn’t see any injuries. Only then did she relax.

“Dad, grandmother said that our family bought so many things and only sent them a few buns, as if we were just giving to beggars … and that you should have a conscience and not monopolize everything. Then Second Aunt came… After that, grandfather told me to come back, so I ran back.” Di Xuan stammered as he washed his hands.

Although Liu Sisi didn’t witness the actual situation, she knew that the process couldn’t have been as simple as Di Xuan described.

Di Yelei’s eyebrows frowned, but he didn’t say much and just called everyone to eat: “Come on, let’s sit down and eat.” fr(e)ewebn(o)vel

The meal ended in silence.

After dinner, Di Yelei continued building the bamboo bed under the moonlight. Watching the bed slowly take shape in his hands, Liu Sisi marveled at his remarkable skill.

“Alright! This bed is done, so we won’t have to struggle squeezing in the old one anymore.”

After nailing the last nail, Di Yelei sat on the bamboo bed with satisfaction, testing its sturdiness.

Finally, he wouldn’t have to endure the cruel torture of only being able to look but not touch every night!

Liu Sisi’s eyes were already gleaming with excitement. The weather was getting hotter, and the bamboo bed would definitely be cooler to sleep on.

“I’ll sleep on this bed, and you sleep on the old one!” Before, Liu Sisi would never have dared to say this, but after spending time together, she naturally understood that despite Di Yelei’s fierce appearance, he actually cared for her deeply.

Di Yelei looked deeply at her without saying anything but picked up a grindstone to carefully polish the edges of the bamboo strips on the bed.

What’s the big deal about not saying anything!

She stuck her tongue out making a face at him, but was caught by Di Yelei who looked back in the midst of turning around.

Liu Sisi lowered her head sheepishly, touched her nose, and then escaped to the kitchen as if flying: “I’ll go heat up the bathwater!”

How humiliating, right?

Di Yelei watched her figure and a shallow smile melted the coldness on his face as he shook his head helplessly.

She’s still a little girl after all, it’s no wonder she still has such a childish side.

He suddenly thought of his visit to the clinic before, when he secretly asked the sitting doctor about the baby in Sisi’s belly while she was settling accounts. The smile on his face faded involuntarily.

Originally, he was afraid that Sisi would be heartbroken, so he asked the doctor quietly. But what he didn’t expect was to get an answer that surprised him.

“What baby? This girl has tight fuzz between her brows and a clear forehead, which clearly indicates that she is a virgin. How can there be a baby? Don’t randomly make up stories that would ruin a girl’s innocence and her life!” In the end, the doctor even glared at him fiercely.

He couldn’t even remember how he left the clinic!

It was beyond his expectations that Liu Sisi was still a virgin.

Whenever he thought of his beloved girl being so pure, he couldn’t help but feel a rush of desire to throw her down and love her, deeply and repeatedly, never getting enough!

Heaven knows how much willpower he had to expend to forcibly suppress the longing in his heart.

But it absolutely couldn’t happen now! Her body is too weak to bear such demands, and every blink of an eye in the same bed is the greatest test of his will.

However, he understood he shouldn’t indulge in lust because of lust. It seemed that he had truly fallen in love with his delicate kitten.

Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but chuckle softly; there would be plenty of time in the future. It was just that a man’s desire could come quickly and fiercely, and he took a deep breath to suppress the burning in his heart, reminding himself that he couldn’t have hot tofu by being impatient.

But as he looked up, there was a sudden “boom” in his head, as if his entire brain had exploded!

Reflected on the swaying candlelit window was a seductive silhouette of an upper body, and the trembling peaks seemed to jump right into his eyes. Apart from that, he could see nothing else!
