70: The Soldier King's Supernatural Wife, Three Babies in One Child

When he arrived at the Shen family, Shen Fugui looked at Lu Chaoyan and felt very regretful, but also grateful to her.

The last time he made furniture for the Lu family, the money he and his sons-in-law earned was as much as what they had earned in the previous three years.

After his eldest son-in-law and second son-in-law returned, they laid the foundation and built a new house. From then on, the young couple no longer had to live together with their parents-in-law and brothers.

The two drank a cup of tea at Shen's house and chatted for a while before leaving.

On the way back, Si Zhengyan kept smiling, which could be regarded as Lu Chaoyan's recognition of him.

There was nothing to do in the afternoon, so Lu Chaoyan took Si Zhengyan, Lu Hanqing and Lu Yuedan into the mountains. They had been busy these days and did not go to the oak forest where the blood ear plants were planted.

Those blood ears have grown again, in clusters, and under the bright sunshine of Mid-Autumn Festival, they look like blood-red jade, glossy and translucent.

However, compared with the blood ears in the space, they are much worse in appearance and taste.

"Third sister, how did you raise them? How come you have so many?"

Lu Yuedan was so happy that she didn't know which one to pick.

Lu Chaoyan said: "When I first discovered it, I didn't know how to grow it. It was Tao Yuwei's method of growing black fungus that gave me inspiration.

I pierced the bark with nails, crushed the little blood ears and stuffed them into the holes, and came up to water them when I had nothing to do, and then they grew into a large patch."

"No wonder you have to go into the mountains every day. Take me with you from now on. The four of us can do it together. Don't do everything by yourself."

Lu Yuedan thought about the blood ears she ate every day, which were all grown by her sister alone in the mountains, and she felt filled with guilt and heartache.

Lu Chaoyan smiled, "Okay, there are many wolves in this mountain. If I don't bring you here, you must not come here privately."

Lu Yuedan raised his head and looked at the deep forest, and felt his scalp tingling.

"I wouldn't dare come here alone without the wolf. Even if there was a box of gold, I wouldn't dare come to take it."

Lu Hanqing excitedly replied, "Third sister, I'm not afraid. Don't come here anymore. I'll come up to water the plants."

Hearing this, Lu Chaoyan picked up an acorn, threw it on Lu Hanqing's forehead, and said coldly:

"I won't bring you here. If you dare to come by yourself, I'll break your legs!"

"Hiss, it hurts, if you don't want to come, then don't come, why did you hit me?"

Lu Hanqing rubbed his forehead and hid behind Si Zhengyan.

Si Zhengyan, who was working silently, glanced at the tigress and her two cubs in the distance.

Was it really them that frightened the wild beasts?

When the sun set, the four men returned each carrying a basket of fresh blood ear mushrooms covered with wild chrysanthemums. When they passed through the village, some curious villagers took a look, but no one could see anything.

They carried the bloody ears to the backyard of the brigade headquarters, poured them on a bamboo mat to dry, and then went back to Lu's house for dinner.

After dinner, Lu Xiang pulled Lu Chaoyan into the house and praised Si Zhengyan, "Zhengyan is a good boy, you have to treat him well."

Lu Chaoyan didn't understand why she said that. Was she not nice to Si Zhengyan?

"Did he drug you?"

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Lu Xiang poked her little daughter's head.

"Anyone with eyes can see that you two don't look like a couple at all. When he looks at you, his eyes are full of affection, but you are indifferent to him.

Yan'er, I know you married Si Zhengyan out of spite because Si Zhengyang and Tao Yuwei got married.

But if you marry him, you have to take on the responsibilities of a wife, and a girl from the Lu family cannot do something wrong that will cause outsiders to gossip about her."

After hearing this, Lu Chaoyan thought about how she and Si Zhengyan had been getting along these days and realized that the sweet atmosphere between husband and wife was indeed lacking.

But, she had no intention of staying with him, so why should she invest so much emotion in him?

"Okay, I see."

"Also, did you two have sex last night? Are you pregnant?"

Lu Xiang eavesdropped several times these nights, but there was no movement at all.

Lu Chaoyan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "You are my mother, not my mother-in-law, why are you so anxious?"

Lu Xiang scolded her, "I am anxious for you. Give birth to the baby soon, and I can still give it to you."

"Don't worry, you have the lead. I'm going to sleep."

Lu Chaoyan was thinking that when the three little ones were born, Lu Xiang would be angry with her for having too many children.

When I returned to the bedroom, Si Zhengyan was already lying down obediently.

Lu Chaoyan spread out her two original quilts on the bed and covered them with her newly bought bedding.

Si Zhengyan covered himself with a quilt alone, looking sideways at Lu Chaoyan, his affectionate peach blossom eyes could melt people.

Lu Chaoyan was feeling a little agitated, but she held herself back. If she flirted with him and was dependent on him, she would no longer be free.

She lifted her new quilt and lay sideways facing the door.

The next day, Lu Shuizhi and Chen Shangjin took the two children home, but Lu Chaoyan did not go to the mountains.

Three days later, the blood ears on the oak tree grew again.

Lu Chaoyan and Si Zhengyan went to the mountain before dawn, picking and drying the fruits, and did not go back for lunch.

In the afternoon, a group of people came from the Lu family.

"We're here. This is the Lu family!"

"Lu Yuedan, you bitch, come out here!"

"You stinky bitch, you're hiding at your parents' house and fooling around with a random man and you don't want to go home, and you want us to pick you up. Today I'm going to tear your skin off."

Lu Hanqing, who was guarding the clinic, ran out of the clinic upon hearing the noise.

I saw a thin woman, accompanied by more than a dozen men, holding carrying poles, and walking towards the gate of the Lu family in a menacing manner.

He quickly ran back to the clinic, ran out the back door to the yard, and stopped them, "What are you doing?"

"You must be Lu Hanqing, Lu Yuedan? Let her come out!"

The woman was Widow Wang, and she was asked to come by Lu Zhixiang’s elder sister Lu Cuiping.

It was said that the matter was done and she was arranged a job in a silk reeling factory.

She glared at Lu Hanqing and continued to yell, "It is said that your Lu family has a good family tradition and your children are well-behaved, so the Lu family came to propose marriage.

I didn't expect it was all nonsense. Your second sister stole the money from our family and also stole all the things from the Lu family back to her parents' home. How shameless."

Lu Yuanyuan, who was in the room, woke up from her nap because of the noise outside and started crying loudly, and also cried with Lu Youyou.

Lu Yuedan didn't have time to comfort them. She took the stick at the bedside and ran out to stand with her younger brother.

When she saw that it was Widow Wang, she asked in surprise, "Widow Wang, why did you bring so many people here?"

"Of course I'm going to take you back!"

Widow Wang stared at Lu Yuedan's pretty face, her eyes filled with jealousy.

"Your mother-in-law was beaten to paralysis by your sister, and you hid in your mother's house and hung out with a strange man instead of going home. You have no conscience."

When Lu Yuedan heard this, she felt extremely angry.

A few days ago, Lu Zhixiang brought her food and cloth, and she thought he had become a better person, but it turned out that he was trying to coax her back.

When her goal was not achieved, Widow Wang brought people to force her.

The Lu family has more tricks than a sieve.

She retorted with cold eyes, "Don't talk nonsense. My third sister saw my mother-in-law shopping in the mall a month ago. How come she can't get out of bed now?"

"Then you can't stay away from home all the time. If you marry a man and don't go home, I think you are unfaithful!"

Widow Wang said, looking at the thirteen young men who came with her, "Come together and take Lu Yuedan back."

Lu Hanqing took the wooden stick from his second sister's hand and glared at Widow Wang and the others.

"If anyone dares to touch my second sister today, I will fight him to death!"
