If you don't consummate the marriage for three years and then marry a successful educated youth

Jiang Lie nodded: "Your sister-in-law said you don't need to pay. I told you it's 150 a month for medicine, that's the amount you need to take back to get the medicine and take care of yourself."

"We live near the mountains, so we can dig up any medicinal herbs we need ourselves. Next time you come, just buy some food and drinks for the children."

"Sugar and malted milk powder are good snacks for the kids. You're a father now, so you should pamper your child more."

Jiang Zhiqiang hummed in agreement, a little embarrassed: "Okay, I'll remember that, brother. I'll leave the child with you. Give me a call if anything comes up."

"If you call the convenience store in the compound, they'll tell me."

"Hmm, are you going to stay and eat before you leave? If not, you can go check on the two children; they look better than they did a few days ago."

"Okay, let's go see the child."

Jiang Lie led them home, leaned against the wall and glanced at them sideways before looking away and looking outside.

Wang Zhaodi held the child and cried, "Pingping, have you missed your mother? I've missed you all so much. We can go home next month. You have to be good here, okay?"

"If you miss us, just go to your grandparents' house and call us. We'll be home after get off work."

The child in her arms struggled slightly and whispered, "Mom, I'm An'an, not Pingping. How could you mistake me for someone else? We really like Uncle's family. Please go home."

"We'll be good and help Auntie dig up medicinal herbs. It's so much fun! I can recognize several kinds of herbs now. I didn't know they weren't just grass, they're medicines that can cure diseases!"

Upon hearing this, Wang Zhaodi stiffened and said somewhat awkwardly, "Yes, that's right. Your aunt is from the city and is educated, so naturally she knows a lot. You should all learn from her."

"Your dad and I are going back. We have to go to work tomorrow. We'll come over another day to bring you clothes and food, okay?"

"Okay, Mom, can we eat candied hawthorns and popcorn?"

"Okay, that's delicious. Mother will remember that."

Jiang Zhiqiang looked at his sister-in-law and said earnestly, "Hello, sister-in-law. Thank you for taking care of me. We'll come to pick you up next month. Remember to come to our house for a meal when you come to town sometime."

Wen Yao nodded and said, "Okay, don't worry, we'll take good care of the children. They're very well-behaved and obedient."

"Okay, let's go then."

The two quickly rode away.

Jiang Baozhu smiled and said, "Hehe, I knew that with Big Brother's help, there would be no problem. But Big Brother, what's wrong with those two? They don't know how to cherish their own children, yet they give meat to others."

Jiang Lie nodded: "You don't need to deliver it anymore. Just cook it and send it to the children directly, so that it doesn't benefit others."

"Okay, brother, I'll take care of them tonight. It's not very convenient for you two to take care of the kids all the time since you just got married. We can take turns taking care of them."

"Okay, thank you for your hard work."

His gaze softened as he looked at his younger sister.

Jiang Baozhu took the two children and left, leaving them some alone time so that it wouldn't be inconvenient for them with the children around. When will they be able to have children?

Jiang Lie closed the door, bent down, picked up his wife, whose face was flushed, and rushed into the room, pinning her to the bed. His eyes were burning with desire: "Wife, did you miss me?"

Wen Yao pushed his shoulder, but her strength was no match for his. She said shyly, "Don't do this in broad daylight, people will laugh at us."

"No, we're a legally married couple, what's there to be afraid of? I haven't touched you for days, honey, I can't hold back anymore."

She reluctantly let go, closed her eyes, and allowed the man to take what he wanted. An hour later, she was completely limp, her body trembling slightly.

She looked at him with dazed eyes, her voice hoarse: "You, you scoundrel~"

Jiang Lie held her hand and kissed it lightly, his eyes filled with satisfaction: "Hmm, I'm a rogue. Go out and rest on the deck chair for a while. I'll tidy up the house."

"Yawn, help me get dressed, I'm too tired."

"Okay, I'll put it on."

Life went on peacefully. Wen Yao prepared three medicinal meals for the children during the day. After teaching Jiang Baozhu, she prepared to go into the mountains with Jiang Lie to collect herbs again.

This time, she wanted to stay in the Medicine Valley for a couple more days to observe and see if there were any good medicinal herbs there. That magical place might have other interesting medicines.

"Ah Lie, how about we go to the mountains for seven days this time? I'll prepare seven days' worth of food to take with us. Let's go to Medicine Valley."

Jiang Lie naturally had no objections. He couldn't wait to spend more time alone with his wife. He was too rushed to explore the Medicine Valley last time, so he wanted to take a good look this time and dig up more good medicinal herbs to bring back.

The two hit it off immediately, told their families, and prepared their things to head into the mountains.

Wen Yao has been running every day recently, and her physical fitness has improved a lot. She no longer runs out of energy as soon as she starts climbing a mountain, and she can continue climbing on her own after resting halfway up.

He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and took a deep breath: "Whew, I've been climbing for an hour, that's pretty impressive."

Jiang Lie leaned against the tree trunk and laughed when he heard this: "Your stamina has improved a lot. It seems you still need to exercise more. You should run with me more often in the mornings from now on."

"Um, we don't need to do this. Everyone else is working in the fields in the morning, and we're just running around in the brigade with nothing to do. It's kind of embarrassing."

"No problem. If you're embarrassed, we can run at the foot of the mountain. The more you exercise, the better. If you're healthy, you won't faint in bed all the time."

Wen Yao glared at her: "Nonsense, let's hurry up and get going. We'll enter the Medicine Valley tonight."

"Okay, I'll do whatever my wife says."

Around noon, the two arrived at Niujiao Mountain. They could still see strips of cloth tied to the trees, fluttering in the wind. Wen Yao patted the bulging cloth bag.

"Let's tie strips of cloth to our clothes this time and see if we can find a way in during the day. Otherwise, we'll have to wait until night every time, which will waste our daytime time."

Jiang Lie nodded and said, "Okay, once I've memorized the route, we'll untie this strip of cloth so no one will notice."

Wen Yao nodded and followed them into the cave. They started a fire and cooked a meal. The steamed buns were prepared in advance and would soften after being soaked in water, making them just the right size to eat.

"It'll be more convenient if you carry your medicine with you."

"Okay, I've got it."

Jiang Lie carried the firewood into the cave, glanced at his busy wife, and casually asked, "Wife, while I was away, Lin Fengjiao didn't cause you any trouble, did she?"

Wen Yao paused for a moment: "I did look for her, but it wasn't too much trouble. She just came to show off her gold necklace, but the inscription on the necklace wasn't her name."

"I told her two truths, and she couldn't take it and left in anger."

"Huh? What truth?"

"I saw the wear and tear on her gold necklace; it was clearly not a new necklace, probably used for two or three years. That's when she got angry and ran away."

Jiang Lie hummed in agreement: "That Shen Qingshu is a bit strange. He works as a purchasing agent in the city and is quite decent-looking. How could he possibly be seducing a married woman? It's very odd."
