Many children, many blessings; a stunningly beautiful wife is given to you right from the start.

Lin Mo triumphantly tossed several oil paper packets onto the table.

"Clang clang clang!"

He opened each of the oil paper packages one by one, as if presenting a treasure.

Instantly, a rich aroma of meat mixed with the fragrance of pastries filled the entire room.

Five roasted chickens, glistening with oil, a large piece of braised beef wrapped in lotus leaves, and twenty steaming hot meat buns.

The table wasn't very big to begin with, but once it was set up like this, it instantly became a small mountain.

Nine pairs of beautiful eyes simultaneously shifted from Lin Mo to the pile of food, unable to look away.

Several of the sisters-in-law's stomachs started rumbling, much to their dismay.

"Cough cough."

Lin Mo cleared his throat and began his personal speech.

"Back then, I had just come down the mountain when three ruthless bandits wielding large knives suddenly jumped out of the bushes!"

Lin Mo spoke while gesturing.

"That one-eyed leader is incredibly vicious!"

"No sooner said than done, that guy swung his knife at my face!"

"I remained calm under pressure! I shifted my body to the side, lightly touched the ground with my toes, and with a 'Dragon Tail Swing,' I knocked him down!"

Lin Mo spoke eloquently, but his sisters-in-law had no interest in listening; their eyes were practically glued to the roast chicken.

Their throats bobbed, and they swallowed their saliva again and again.

Lin Mo, caught up in the excitement, suddenly patted his chest.

"...Then, I took care of them all with just a few punches and kicks! Their ill-gotten gains naturally became mine!"

"Hahahahaha!"

Lin Mo put his hands on his hips and laughed loudly.

Perhaps it was because his movements were too vigorous, or perhaps Su Qingyue had loosened her belt when she looked over his chest earlier.

There was a soft "click".

A small pink thing slipped out of his clothes and landed on the dusty ground.

It was a pink bib, embroidered with several alluring twin lotus flowers in gold thread.

The finest silk material gleamed with an ambiguous sheen under the dim light.

The room became so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

Lin Mo's laughter also came to an abrupt halt.

Nine pairs of eyes focused simultaneously on the object on the ground.

The air freezes.

"..."

Lin Mo's forehead was covered in a fine layer of sweat as his mind raced.

Suddenly, he bent over with lightning speed!

He picked up the undergarment and held it in his hand, then looked up and gave a sincere smile.

"Um... sisters-in-law, please don't misunderstand!"

Lin Mo chuckled and turned his gaze to Su Qingyue, whose pretty face was already flushed red to the roots of her neck.

"This is a gift I bought for Qingyue. I accidentally tore her nightgown last night, and I was thinking I should buy her a new one."

"boom--!"

Upon hearing this, every single woman in the room blushed instantly.

The younger sisters-in-law were so embarrassed that they buried their heads in their chests, and the tips of their ears turned pink.

"What...what nonsense are you talking about!"

Su Qingyue was both ashamed and angry. Her beautiful eyes widened, and she reached out and pinched Lin Mo's arm hard.

She snatched the undergarment from Lin Mo's hand, didn't even look at it, and turned around to stuff it under her pillow with frightening speed.

The atmosphere became extremely awkward.

Lin Mo rubbed his arm, which had been pinched so hard, and coughed lightly, trying to break the silence.

"Um... sisters-in-law, don't just stand there, let's eat! I'm going to take a shower first!"

After saying that, he dashed out of the room like a shot.

That sentence is simply heavenly music.

The sisters-in-law were starving; they couldn't even get a proper meal of dry rice, let alone meat.

At this moment, all shyness and embarrassment are cast aside.

Fifth Sister, who was closest, was the first to reach out and carefully tear off a shiny chicken leg. Ignoring the heat, she opened her small mouth and took a big bite.

"Mmm...delicious!"

The aroma of meat filled her mouth, making her squint her eyes in happiness. Her eyes welled up with tears.

Once there's a first one, there's bound to be a second.

No one could hold back any longer and crowded around.

You tore off a piece of chicken breast, I grabbed a meat bun, and we wolfed it down.

For a moment, only the sounds of chewing and satisfied sighs filled the room.

Although Su Qingyue was so embarrassed she wanted to disappear into the ground, seeing her sisters eating so heartily, her resentment vanished.

She took a roast chicken and several meat buns and placed them next to Lin Mo's bowl.

"This is for Lin Mo, you are not allowed to take it."

Lin Mo stood at the doorway, looking at the warm yet slightly messy scene before him, and felt an unprecedented sense of satisfaction welling up inside him.

Supporting nine wives... seems like it's quite an accomplishment?

After a gust of wind swept away the remaining clouds, the table was a complete mess.

The sisters-in-law sat on small stools, their faces showing a long-lost sense of satisfaction.

Their attitude towards Lin Mo changed.

If before it was fear and helplessness.

Now, there is more closeness and trust between us.

This younger brother-in-law, although he has a sharp tongue and does some bad things, is genuinely trying his best to take care of them.

Su Qingyue carefully tidied up the mess on the table, put the bones in a broken bowl, and prepared to throw them away tomorrow.

Every move she made exuded virtue and gentleness.

Only when she occasionally glances at Lin Mo will a different kind of emotion be revealed in her watery eyes.

Her cheeks flushed, especially when she thought of that pink bellyband.

Lin Mo let out a burp and glanced around the room.

The room was so small that, apart from the table and chairs, the rest of the space was almost entirely filled with beds.

The nine sisters-in-law, plus Su Qingyue, squeezed together like this that night.

Many things are inconvenient to do.

especially……

He glanced at Su Qingyue, who was busy with her work, her slender waist and slightly upturned hips outlining an alluring curve in the dim candlelight.

Lin Mo felt a surge of excitement; he needed to hurry and buy a house.

He had already stored all the treasure in the bandit leader's secret room into his system space, which was more than enough to buy a decent house.

But what should I do tonight? I can't stop cultivating!

Lin Mo's gaze swept around the room, finally landing on two bamboo poles in the corner.

He walked over, pulled out the bamboo pole, and then found an old, faded bed sheet.

Lin Mo took the two items and began gesturing them in the corner where he and Su Qingyue slept.

The sisters-in-law were initially a little confused.

But look at him, he braced one end of a bamboo pole against the wall, tied the other end to the roof beam with a rope, and then draped a bed sheet over it, and a simple "partition" was formed.

"Pfft..."

Someone couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Immediately afterwards, whispers and suppressed laughter filled the room.

"Is Uncle... going to build a bridal chamber?"

"Pfft, so Uncle knows how to be shy after all."

"Look at your sister-in-law, her face is all red down to her ears."

Su Qingyue did indeed blush.

She kept her head down, not daring to look at Lin Mo, and even less daring to look at her sisters' teasing eyes.

Lin Mo finally managed to hang the curtain securely.

He dusted off his hands and proudly admired his masterpiece.

Then he cleared his throat and announced to the crowd:

"Alright, sisters-in-law, get some rest. Tomorrow, I'll announce some really good news."

"What good news?"

Su Qingyue's curiosity was piqued, and she couldn't help but look up and ask.

Lin Mo shook his head mysteriously, keeping everyone in suspense.

"I can't say now."

"If I tell you now, I'm afraid you'll be too excited to sleep tonight."

He had barely finished speaking when Qin Ruxue, who had been leaning against the mast,

Suddenly, he pointed to the swaying curtain.

"As long as you keep quiet at night, we can sleep soundly."

"puff--"

The sisters-in-law could no longer contain themselves and burst into laughter.

Su Qingyue was so embarrassed that she stomped her feet, wishing she could bury her head in Lin Mo's arms and never come out to see anyone again.

"Sleep! Sleep!"

Lin Mo blushed, awkwardly shouted, stepped forward, and blew out the only candle on the table with a "poof".

The room was plunged into darkness instantly.

By the faint moonlight, Lin Mo grabbed Su Qingyue's soft little hand and pulled her behind the curtain without saying a word.

in the dark.

All sounds were amplified.

Outside the curtain, the sisters-in-law's voices gradually lowered.

Inside the curtain, only Su Qingyue's clearly audible heartbeat and breathing could be heard.

Lin Mo pulled her into his arms, the faint scent of her body filling his nostrils.

He could feel Su Qingyue's delicate body trembling slightly, whether from cold or fear, he couldn't tell.

"Are you dressed?"

"Um……"

Su Qingyue's voice was soft.

……

Night was falling.

The thin curtain reflected the moonlight from outside the window.

Gently.

It swayed rhythmically...
