"Okay, now that you've dealt with the poison, you won't feel any pain anymore. But I need to find all the herbs to make an antidote for the poison in your body."

Xu Jinyi put away the golden needle and yawned loudly.

Han Ting's eyes softened, and he sat up and fixed his clothes: "Little Pepper, we haven't seen each other for ten years, how did you recognize me?"

As he spoke, even Han Ting probably didn't notice the joy in his tone.

Xu Jinyi yawned again: "Brother is brother, brother, I can recognize your eyes at a glance."

The little head moved little by little, showing that he was very sleepy.

But they finally met again, and Han Ting still had so many things to ask her. Just as he was about to ask her why she was here, her little head fell forward.

Han Ting took her into his arms and let her sleep on her chest.

Looking at her peaceful sleeping face, Han Ting felt satisfied.

"Little Pepper, do you know that I have been looking for you for ten years?"

Han Ting grabbed her hand that had just been cut, looked at the wound, and gently put it to his lips and breathed out, as if he was afraid that she would feel pain.

"Hmm... delicious. Goose feet are so delicious." Xu Jinyi reminded him, which made Han Ting laugh and feel distressed at the same time.

Stroking her hair gently, he whispered, "Little Pepper, have you had a hard time without me these years?"

"Is there anyone bullying you?"

Thinking of the little girl appearing here, and the rumors about the Shangshu Mansion a few days ago, Han Ting narrowed his eyes slightly, and a dangerous light flashed in them.

"Don't worry, my brother is here, no one can bully you."

Perhaps because his sleeping position was uncomfortable, or perhaps because he felt cold late at night, Xu Jinyi twisted his body.

She put her arms around Han Ting and pressed her body closer to him.

The clothes were very thin in the summer, and Han Ting could feel her body temperature and the fullness pressing against him.

Thinking of the ditch he had just seen, Han Ting's breathing became heavier, and the hand around her waist tightened unconsciously. He could even feel the changes in his waist and abdomen.

Coupled with the faint fragrance from her body lingering in his nostrils, Han Ting's mind was disturbed.

His big hands stroked those plump and moist red lips, his eyes sparkled with fire, and in the end he couldn't help but kiss her.

I clearly intended to just touch it lightly, just once.

As soon as their lips touched, the sweet taste exploded, and Han Ting no longer remembered what it meant to be a gentleman.

Hooking, entwining, sucking, licking, Han Ting tasted the rosy little mouth inside and out, and only withdrew after the person in his arms made an dissatisfied sound.

Looking at the marks he left on her lips, Han Ting touched her back teeth with the tip of his tongue with satisfaction.

He stayed there and watched the sun rise before leaving the roof to avoid being seen by anyone who came to open the door.

But he didn't expect that his beloved girl had forgotten everything that happened tonight because of drinking.

Xu Jinyi woke up after a moment. Still drunk, she lifted the tablecloth off the table and used it as a quilt.

After a while, he still felt it was not enough, so he took down the two curtains in the room and fell into a deep sleep.

When Jiang Ma came to open the door with the food offerings, she was so frightened by the scene that she almost fainted.

"It's over, it's over. Go and call my wife over."

Mother Jiang had never seen such an outrageous thing. In such a solemn and quiet place like the ancestral hall, Xu Jinyi could actually do such a thing.

The ancestral hall was in a mess, the food offerings were scattered all over the floor, and the clay plates were all broken.

What is even more shocking is that the chicken that fell to the ground was torn into pieces, with limbs missing, and the same was true for the goose.

"A sin!"

Mother Jiang looked at Xu Jinyi who was still sleeping soundly, and didn't know what to say for a moment.

Xu Jinyi was finally woken up. When he woke up and touched his forehead, he felt a sharp pain in his head.

It seems that this body can't hold its alcohol tolerance. It only drank so little, but it has such a strong aftertaste.

Xu Jinyi stood up shakily and immediately saw several maids carrying food behind Jiang Ma.

Before anyone could react, he picked up the offered buns and started eating.

Then came the snacks and pastries, all of which were in his hands.

He nodded while eating: "It's delicious. The food in Shangshu Mansion is really good."

Mother Jiang slapped her thigh and said, "My snack, Miss, this is a tribute to our ancestors, how could you eat it?"

Xu Jinyi blinked innocently and glared at Jiang Ma: "You said that what I eat is a tribute and I can't eat it at all?"

"Did the Shangshu Mansion bring me back to starve me to death? From yesterday till now, no one has brought me even a grain of rice or a cup of water."

"If you want to starve me to death, then why did you bring me back?"

Xu Jingwan slowly appeared with Xu's mother, and when she saw the mess in the ancestral hall, she covered her mouth.

"Sister, how could you...how could you mess up the ancestral hall like this? Even if you are mad at me, you can't be disrespectful to our ancestors!"

Xu Jingwan pretended to walk forward and knelt down devoutly to those people: "Ancestors, I don't know the rules on my first day home, please don't blame me."

Xu Jinyi rolled her eyes: "Xu Jingwan, although your last name is Xu now, the people in front of you are not your ancestors."

"You want to take advantage of our ancestors? It's really shameful. You want an adopted daughter to be married into our Xu family's ancestral hall? Aren't you afraid that our ancestors will jump out of their graves and scold you?"

Mrs. Xu felt dizzy and didn't bother to blame Xu Jinyi. She said anxiously, "Hurry up, get someone to clean it up."

While Xu Jinyi was speaking, the strong smell of alcohol wafted into her nose, making Xu's mother more angry.

Seeing that she had no remorse, didn't know she was wrong and was still teaching a lesson to the well-behaved Xu Jingwan, she became so angry that she raised her hand to hit Xu Jinyi.

But Xu Jinyi stopped him mid-air, saying in a cold tone: "Why did mother beat me? Was I right? Did she bring her daughter back just to starve me to death?"

Xu's mother was so angry at her twisted words that she gasped: "You rebellious daughter, look at what you have done since you came back? Can the tribute be eaten? Look at what this ancestral hall looks like?"

"Don't you deserve to be beaten for this?! I punished you to kneel in the ancestral hall, and this is how you kneel?"

Xu Jinyi looked innocent: "This has nothing to do with me. I was just too thirsty, so I just wanted to drink a sip of water. I didn't drink the teacup. Who knew that the pot contained wine?"

"After two cups, I lost consciousness. When I woke up in the morning, I saw Mother Jiang with breakfast. I thought she had specially arranged it because she remembered that her biological daughter hadn't eaten for a day and a night. I didn't expect..."

Xu Jinyi looked sad as he spoke.
