"Oh no..."
Upon hearing her husband's teasing, Yi Shiyin, who wasn't doing very well initially, felt a surge of nervousness in her heart. She immediately covered her face with her hands, turned away, and buried her head into the quilt, wishing she could disappear from embarrassment.
Chen Mo closed the door, sat on the round stool in front of the table, took a sip of tea, looked at Xiaolu who was still mumbling about losing face, and chuckled, "Xiaolu, I'm just teasing you."
Having said that, he got up and walked forward.
"Husband, you're so annoying." Yi Shiyin turned around, kicked off the cover on her feet, hugged her rounded knees, and pursed her lips at Chen Mo.
Chen Mo glanced at the girl with a rosy face and said softly, "What made you want to learn this?"
"Isn't it because of my father? He said that even though I'm married, I'm still like a child, not mature at all. He said over time, my husband would grow to dislike me, so..." Yi Shiyin pouted.
Chen Mo sat down by the bed, took Yi Shiyin's small hand, and promised, "That's not true. Father-in-law is either overthinking things or just trying to scare you."
He continued, "Did your father-in-law see you fooling around and then say that about you?"
"Husband, how did you know?" Yi Shiyin widened her eyes, then said, "At the time, I was eating candied haws while kicking a shuttlecock with Xiaoling. When father saw it, he scolded me."
"Did he also tell you to be more steady?" Chen Mo asked.
"Husband, how did you know that too?" Yi Shiyin was flabbergasted.
Chen Mo smiled but didn't answer.
He had been through it himself.
Back when he graduated, he was already in his late twenties and hadn't had a serious girlfriend. He spent every evening bar-hopping and just fooling around, so his parents had said similar things to him.
"Don't worry, father-in-law is just trying to frighten you."
"But... I feel that my father has a point."
"Even so, you don't need to pretend to be someone you are not. Once Xiaolu has children in the future, you'll naturally become more mature and steady."
Speaking of having children, Chen Mo actually deliberately avoided it. He was only seventeen, still young, and considered himself just a kid as well. So he didn't want kids at the moment. Besides, with the current chaotic state of the world, he wasn't ready to bring a child into it.
At the very least, he'd wait until he was no longer under anyone's threat and was in control of his own destiny before considering the matter of having children.
His current foundation wasn't big either, and having a child wouldn't necessarily ease the hearts of those beneath him.
So there was no rush.
Of course, if any of the girls were truly eager to have a child, he would consider it.
Upon hearing this, Yi Shiyin's eyes filled with shy affection, and she trembled as she said, "Husband..."
Thinking of having children and the image of her with a large belly, the girl's heart fluttered, and she couldn't help but feel a bit embarrassed.
With the mood rising, Chen Mo couldn't help but kiss her.
The girl wrapped her arms around Chen Mo's neck and responded enthusiastically.
The two of them nuzzled against each other for a while, and just as they were helping each other undress, Yi Shiyin suddenly asked, "Husband, when do you plan to visit my sister-in-law?"
Chen Mo was taken aback.
"The matter with you and my sister-in-law, I... already know all about it," Yi Shiyin said, biting her pink lips carefully.
Chen Mo: "..."
"Don't worry, I don't mind, and I've talked it over with sister-in-law. In front of others, I'll still call her sister-in-law, but at home, I'll call her... sister."
"..."
Chen Mo looked at Xiaolu. He had been considering how to tell her about the matter with sister-in-law, even thinking about how to handle her emotions after revealing it, but unexpectedly, it had already been resolved.
Well, Chen Mo wasn't really planning to hide it. Mostly, sister-in-law wanted to keep it under wraps.
Chen Mo took the girl's fair hand and said softly, "Xiaolu, then why don't we go to your Sister Han's place now?"
Chen Mo only said this as a test, not expecting Xiaolu to agree.
But Xiaolu did agree, saying, "Sure, while husband was away, I slept over with Sister Han several times. It was so nice to hug Sister Han."
Chen Mo lowered his head to plant a kiss on Yi Shiyin's lips, saying, "Xiaolu, then I'll carry you over."
"Okay."
...
Behind the parted Ge Cloth Mosquito Net, Han Anniang knelt on the bed, looking at a distant copper mirror, trying on clothes.
Because later, her uncle was coming over, and she certainly wanted to dress up beautifully.
Han Anniang usually slept in Chen Mo's room, so her room still retained the summer layout, and the mosquito net hadn't been taken down.
While she was changing, the door was gently kicked open by Chen Mo, and he carried Yi Shiyin inside.
At this moment, Han Anniang was wearing a thin, intimate piece of clothing that outlined her graceful figure. Her bosom was so generous that it couldn't be completely contained, hinting at a budding allure, and offered a breathtaking sight.
"Uncle? And Xiaolu, why have you both come?"
Han Anniang hastily pulled a quilt over her body in panic.
Chen Mo carried Yi Shiyin closer and placed her on the bed, then went over to close the door.
"Han... Sister," Yi Shiyin softly said, feeling shy as she lay down.
Han Anniang was taken aback. Hearing this address, she realized that Xiaolu had already told everything.
"Uncle, you... you brought Xiaolu here for what?" Seeing him closing the door and walking over, Han Anniang asked nervously.
"Xiaolu just wants to get close to you," Chen Mo said with a meaningful smile.
Han Anniang, having gained some experience now, understood some of it. Her face flushed, and she hurriedly said, "No... no way."
The two women attended...
This is too absurd.
She may not care how many women Chen Mo has, but being made to share the bed with other women...
For her traditional values, it is evidently hard to accept.
"Hey, since you're already here." Chen Mo said the old saying.
"No... I don't want to." Han Anniang hugged the quilt and shrank to the inner side of the bed, saying, "Xiaolu is the one uncle brought in with a great ceremony, the saying about 'absence makes the heart grow fonder' applies here, let her serve you, I'll just lie here beside you..."
Chen Mo wasn't in a hurry. They were all on the same bed; where could she escape to?
Chen Mo self-assuredly untied the silk bands on his body and then took off his shoes and climbed into bed.
Yi Shiyin shyly began to unbutton her single garment, but Chen Mo said, "Don't move, let me do it."
Yi Shiyin dared not move, obediently lying still.
Chen Mo first took off the silk socks on Yi Shiyin's feet; her frame was petite, as were her small and exquisite feet, her ten toes like a bunch of fresh, white scallions, with green rouge powder painted on the nails.
Yi Shiyin covered her eyes, embarrassed, pulling her small feet back. Since knowing her husband's preferences from the bridal night, she had taken special care to wash them until pristine and white.
Chen Mo touched gently, very cautiously, fearing he might harm the skin.
"Husband, it tickles..." Yi Shiyin's fingers parted slightly, and her body felt aflame.
But soon, she felt...
Though Han Anniang lay on the inner side of the bed, she still secretly watched the two of them.
Seeing uncle adoring Xiaolu's small feet, Han Anniang's eyes widened a bit.
It's just too...
Yi Shiyin only felt overwhelming shyness, her heart sweeter than words, wondering how much her husband must adore her to be so affectionate.
"Husband... you should rest early." Yi Shiyin secretly glanced at Han Anniang, worried she'd be discovered.
"Seems like Xiaolu is getting impatient." Chen Mo looked up and laughed.
"Ah, husband is teasing me again..."
"Alright then, I'll satisfy Xiaolu." Chen Mo got up, supporting himself with hands on Yi Shiyin's shoulders, lifting one hand to cover Xiaolu's eyes, saying, "Look at me."
Xiaolu's cheeks flushed red, but she complied, and even proactively embraced Chen Mo.
Chen Mo gently embraced Xiaolu, sitting up, while saying, "Xiaolu, how is the Tail-eyed Spirit Fish being raised?"
"I sought out top-notch fish bait to take care of them. Of the original fish eggs, thirteen survived, and they have grown to nearly half the size of my palm... Ah... master." Yi Shiyin stammered and tightly hugged Chen Mo's neck.
"Half the size of a palm now?" Chen Mo was stunned; only several months had passed, how could they grow so fast?
Yi Shiyin seemed aware of her husband's doubt, saying, "Husband, you might not know, ordinary fish eggs mature fast enough.
For Spirit Fish like the Tail-eyed, as long as they're well-fed and tended to, their growth accelerates."
Yi Shiyin's voice had acquired some timbre.
Han Anniang lay on the innermost side, her face hidden in her scattered hair, secretly listened as Chen Mo and Xiaolu conversed, her heart wildly oscillating.
The two of them really started playing around as if she wasn't right there.
This led to a sense of being overlooked and ignored.
Then, she felt a powerful tug remove the quilt, and suddenly Yi Shiyin was right beside her, with hair also strewn.
"Uncle, you..." Seeing Chen Mo's gaze settle on her, Han Anniang felt extraordinary shame and annoyance, reaching for the quilt.
"Don't move." Chen Mo snapped.
Han Anniang dared not move.
Chen Mo stroked Han Anniang's cheek, "That's better, sister-in-law."
He then continued talking with Yi Shiyin, saying, "With such rapid growth, they can be eaten by spring."
"More or less." Yi Shiyin calculated that three or four months should be enough.
"Have you found a suitable mate for the mother fish?" Chen Mo asked.
"No need to look; once the little fish mature, it will be fine."
Upon hearing this, Chen Mo paused and then laughed; of course, he was applying human logic to fish.
"You've been helpful, Xiaolu." Chen Mo said.
"It's what I should be doing."
"Then I must trouble Xiaolu a bit more."
"???"
Yi Shiyin's clear eyes showed confusion, quickly followed by a cry of surprise from beside her, then she felt a soft weight on her back, filling her heart with embarrassment and delight.
Fortunately, she was a Martial Artist, her arm strength allowed her easily to bear Han Anniang's weight.
"Uncle, what are you doing? Stop messing around..." Han Anniang's face showed both shame and frustration, thoroughly flustered.
Chen Mo, however, changed the topic, saying, "We're all family now; it's important to live harmoniously, sooner or later intimacy will come naturally, so it's good to adjust in advance."
"..."
Han Anniang wanted to say something more, but Chen Mo didn't give her the opportunity, idly occupying himself.
