The husband I snatched halfway through his life is strange.

Suddenly everything went black as Wei Zhao pulled Yu Tingwan up and covered her eyes.

When she pulled it aside, Wei Zhao had already covered it up.

Shen Zhiyi took off the gold bracelet from her other hand and asked Yu Tingwan in a normal tone.

"Do you feel like one is missing?"

They always wear things in pairs.

Yu Tingwan was very moved.

"How embarrassing."

As she spoke, she unceremoniously took the gold bracelet from Shen Zhiyi's hand and put it on her own wrist.

The light was dim, so it wasn't very clear what you were seeing.

But she just felt they were a perfect match!
"What you said makes sense."

Yu Tingwan: "As expected."

She stroked it affectionately: "It feels like we've known each other forever."

Shen Zhiyi: ? ? ?

"Are you a robber?"

"You actually have the nerve to take it from me?"

Yu Tingwan: "I'm sorry."

"I'll take as much as you have."

Shen Zhiyi was too lazy to bother with it.

She couldn't help but smile.

"After this incident, Yingzhi is probably traumatized. He doesn't even go to the concubine's room in the Second Prince's residence anymore."

"That's it."

"But he hadn't been there for a long time before that,"

Shen Zhiyi: "What?"

Yu Tingwan: "Impotence."

Shen Zhiyi: !!!

"He also has erectile dysfunction?"

You know a bit too much!

Just as Yu Tingwan was about to nod, she told Shen Zhiyi that the guy was still on drugs.

"go home?"

The voice of Wei Zhao was right next to my ear.

Yu Tingwan said she hadn't stayed long enough.

"I just got a pair of gold bracelets. The couple is still here. If they want to go back, I'm not in good health and I can't fight them."

Shen Zhiyi: ? ? ? ?
Don't make false accusations.

She's not that tasteless.

Xiao Huaiyan, looking distressed, suddenly raised his eyes.

Brothers!
There is still humanity in them after all.

He almost stood up and bowed to express his gratitude.

Yu Tingwan was then reminded.

She'd taken the bracelet and bullied Xiao Huaiyan; it was time to stop. After all, it was their wedding night; she couldn't very well sit on the rooftop with them, basking in the moonlight.

Yu Tingwan left with Wei Zhao, smiling.

Shen Zhiyi, being a newlywed, was too shy to keep her composure and continue eavesdropping with Xiao Huaiyan alone.

My fingertips were gently hooked.

My heart skipped a beat.

She instinctively tried to pull away.

But then again...

The two grown men below were engaging in illicit sexual relations.

She and Xiao Huaiyan had already gone through a wedding ceremony, so what's wrong with holding hands?
Xiao Huaiyan probed: "Then..."

He only uttered one word.

"it is good."

But after waiting for a while, Xiao Huaiyan didn't come to carry her away using his light-footed skill.

Shen Zhiyi frowned.

"Shen Zhiyi".

Xiao Huaiyan stared at her intently, his eyes dark: "You know what you'll do when you get back, right?"

Shen Zhiyi remained calm.

"know."

"But I want to take a shower first when I get back. You should go and wash yourself too."

She was helped to her feet, picked up the handkerchief that was lying on the cushion, and said in the most ordinary tone.

"I don't have much contact with men; usually it's just my father and my elder brother."

"Although they weren't exactly slovenly, and they washed themselves every day even in the sweltering summer, they sweated a lot, and if they didn't change their clothes and wash promptly after coming back from outside, they would always have a sweaty smell."

Sometimes, when they came home too late, they would just fall asleep without caring about anything else, and their mother and sister-in-law would have to help them wipe their feet and wash them.

Unlike those girls.

Even her sweat smells sweet. Shen Zhiyi realized something important and asked, "Will you be eating and living with me from now on? Or will you ask the servant to inform me in advance when you come to my room to rest?"

It's no wonder she asked that question.

Not all couples live in the same room.

Some husbands often stayed in their concubines' rooms, only going to the main wife's courtyard on the first and fifteenth of the lunar month, and on holidays, to be given proper respect.

Some are so engrossed in their official duties that they spend eight or nine out of ten nights of the month in their study and rarely step into the backyard.

"I didn't marry you to be a decoration or to fool my parents."

Xiao Huaiyan: "Have you carefully inspected the bridal chamber?"

Shen Zhiyi didn't understand what he meant, but nodded.

"Very good, it's big and spacious, and it even has a lot of things for a young lady's household. You've gone to a lot of trouble."

There are many customs associated with the marriage of sons of officials. In most cases, a separate courtyard will be built for the family.

The items inside were replaced from scratch, not only to demonstrate the wealth but also to express the importance placed on the bride.

"That's not a separate approach."

Xiao Huaiyan stared intently at her, not allowing her any attempt to dodge: "This is the courtyard where I've lived since I was a child. I've never had the habit of living in a study, and I never will."

He told her, "Do you understand? I didn't leave you any way out."

understood.

You just want to sleep with me.

Living together inevitably requires mutual adaptation.

Shen Zhiyi laid down three rules: "From now on, you must keep your bed clean and tidy. But I will not help you with that."

Xiao Huaiyan didn't say that he was quite clean.

He was simply drawing people closer.

"Smell me, do I smell bad?"

No need to smell it specifically.

On the way here, Xiao Huaiyan was carrying her, and she couldn't help but sniffle.

He should have had a drink.

There was a faint smell of alcohol mixed with his unique scent. Actually... Shen Zhiyi quite liked it.

Thinking about drinking, she couldn't help but say it again.

"Men are more likely to get into trouble when they're drunk. I can drink, but I don't like it when you're out drunk."

Xiao Huaiyan: "Is there anything else?"

Let her think about it.

But Shen Zhiyi couldn't think of anything for the time being: "I'll tell you next time."

"Row."

Xiao Huaiyan said meaningfully, "So you're starting to control me now?"

He actually quite enjoyed it.

Shen Zhiyi had no idea.

A woman's husband is her heaven after marriage, so what she just said was indeed a bit unreasonable.

She had never been a wife before and had no experience, so she was afraid of sounding too forceful.

Shen Zhiyi lowered her voice awkwardly: "Is it okay?"

"If you have any requests, you can tell me."

She's not a domineering person.

Xiao Huaiyan repeated: "Requirements?"

Shen Zhiyi quickly replied, "Of course, we can't be too unreasonable."

Xiao Huaiyan easily picked the person up by the waist, and with a light touch of his toes, they left the place.

His figure moved like a swallow, the green tiles trembling silently beneath his feet. A night breeze swept by, causing his clothes to flutter.

The blue crow remained, stubbornly staying in place with its tiny, beady eyes.

He glanced at the sky; it was getting late. "There are wontons for sale on the street ahead. Shall we go and get some?"

No more.

She ate noodles for dinner and was quite full. Shen Zhiyi also doesn't have the habit of eating late-night snacks, for fear of indigestion.

She shook her head, then thought that Xiao Huaiyan might not be able to see it.

"Not hungry."

Xiao Huaiyan headed towards the Marquis of Zhongyong's residence. He smiled and said, "Alright, then I'll go back and take care of things."

Shen Zhiyi didn't speak; all she could hear was the whistling wind.

Unlike his dawdling arrival, Xiao Huaiyan returned quickly.

Shen Zhiyi couldn't possibly be unaware of the reason behind it.

Her ears turned slightly red, but she didn't say anything.

Xiao Huaiyan carried the person back to the new house, had hot water prepared, and headed to the bathroom.

Once we arrived at the destination, we put the person down.

Shen Zhiyi was about to urge him to leave.

He moved closer and kissed me deeply.

He said, "I have no demands of you. I'm not greedy, but I want you to care about me a little more each day."
