Chapter 26: A Different Experience

Huo Sanniang's bedtime story, Chen Wuji still couldn't finish listening to it.

After fighting the giant python for a long time and dragging it back to the village, it consumed much of Chen Wuji's stamina.

If it weren't for Huo Sanniang's excessively alluring posture, he might have already fallen asleep.

And the fact proves that this kind of bedtime story for children works just as well on Chen Wuji, a sixteen-year-old boy with a thirty-year-old soul.

He slept until broad daylight, and in the early morning he was awakened by the scent of food.

As soon as he opened his eyes, Shen Youwei had already placed a bowl of rice beside his pillow.

"Husband, sister stewed fish porridge, have some first." Shen Youwei spoke softly, her gentle, soft tone like a spring breeze brushing the face.

I don't know what she did early this morning, her face was slightly flushed, and she didn't dare look directly at Chen Wuji.

"Little miss, why is your face red? Did I bully you in my dream?" Chen Wuji, seeing her state, deliberately teased, and as he turned over to get up, he noticed his usual morning change and immediately understood.

Shen Youwei blushed, shook her head, and said, "If you bullied me in your dream, what do I have to fear?"

"Then why is your face red?" Chen Wuji asked deliberately.

Shen Youwei lowered her head, weakly saying, "I was wondering how sister bit you last night..."

"Wife didn't bite me last night!" Chen Wuji looked bewildered.

After saying that, he realized, this girl, her speech is quite fierce!

"Really?" Shen Youwei exclaimed in surprise, "Then just pretend I didn't say anything."

"No, you have to tell me exactly what's going on." Chen Wuji feigned ignorance and pressed further.

Shen Youwei shook her head repeatedly, "I can't explain it, but if I were to do it, I probably would... uh, probably would."

"Then show me, I want to know." Chen Wuji said eagerly.

He really didn't expect it, but Shen Youwei turned out to be so uninhibited.

A girl who can be open-minded and beautiful is practically a treasure hard to find in the world.

"Now? No, no!" Shen Youwei's face turned even redder, instantly becoming translucent like a peach.

"Give it a try, I want to know, teach me." Chen Wuji quickly assumed the posture of a four-year-old child, coquettishly begging.

A burly man acting coquettishly causes great harm.

She embarrassedly glanced outside, then whispered, "But it's broad daylight, sister is in the kitchen, I... I can't..."

"But I want to know what's really going on; you're all keeping it from me, just giving me riddles." Chen Wuji's mouth twitched.

Shen Youwei conceded, "Then I... I'll just teach you a bit."

Chen Wuji instantly became excited.

With a concubine like this, what more could a husband ask for!

Shen Youwei was as fast as lightning.

Chen Wuji didn't even feel what had happened; Shen Youwei had already retreated, blushing.

"Done?"

Shen Youwei's face was completely red, she nodded slightly.

"Why do I feel nothing? Little miss, you're lying to me again!" Chen Wuji shouted.

"No, I'm going to tell sister, you're bullying people!"

"Wait, wait!" Shen Youwei gave in somewhat flusteredly.

But the speed was still extremely fast.

"Can we do it now?"

"Better than nothing, can we do it again later?" Chen Wuji said.

Who would believe it, a seventeen-year-old rich young lady actually knows this.

Although not skilled, we can still practice!

"From now on... depending on the situation, if you cherish me, I'll give it to you; if you dare to bully me, even if they beat me to death I won't give it." Shen Youwei said with a hint of pride, though in reality she was so nervous she felt like dying, her heart pounding like a drum, almost jumping out of her throat.

"You'll definitely be cherished, cherished to death, try again." Chen Wuji laughed.

This little sweetness seemed a bit little for him; he wanted more.

Just then, footsteps sounded; Chen Wuji quickly tidied his clothes and saw Huo Sanniang walking in, holding a forest frog with a stick.

"Wuji."

She entered, glanced at Shen Youwei, and asked doubtfully, "What did you eat? Why is your face still red from eating?"

"Huh? I, I didn't eat, but I'm a bit hungry." Shen Youwei stammered.

Huo Sanniang chuckled lightly, "If you're hungry, go eat quickly; having an appetite is good, it shows your stomach qi is recovering."

"Oh."

Shen Youwei fled in haste, not daring to meet Huo Sanniang's gaze.

"How strange." Huo Sanniang muttered oddly, then said to Chen Wuji, "Wuji, next time don't bring things like this and crows into the house; they really can't be eaten, they'll make people sick."

"Wife, this is delicious, very delicious, not a toad. My father and brothers come up the mountain every year at this season especially to look for it; they often can't bear to eat it and specially save it for me." Chen Wuji shoved the blame onto his father and brothers, the forest frog can't be thrown away, this thing has too high nutritional value.

As for the crow, it definitely can't be eaten; he brought it back just to gamble on luck.

In case there are again people with problems willing to spend money to buy it.

Huo Sanniang was somewhat doubtful, "This looks indeed more pleasing to the eye than a toad, but... can it really be eaten?"

"Yes."

"How to eat it?"

"Just roast it directly, wife, how come you don't even know this?"

"I, I've never seen it before, know what to know, only you kid can! Alright, then let's try eating it at noon."

Chen Wuji nodded heavily.

Fortunately, the wife was obedient today and listened to advice; she didn't throw away the proper good stuff again.

"Crows probably aren't edible, right? Why did you bring that thing back?" Huo Sanniang asked.

Chen Wuji grinned, "I want to ask the person who eats weasels whether they eat crows."

"People take weasels for medicine, you think they really eat them? You don't even get that!" Huo Sanniang burst out laughing.

The words Chen Wuji had just thrown out were quickly tossed back by her.

"I don't get it; if he won't eat it, I'll throw it away later," Chen Wuji muttered.

The little wife actually still holds a grudge quite strongly.

"Fine, let's give it a try." Huo Sanniang nodded.

"Right, after we eat we'll go to the town; I've got the meat ready. Let's try to gather enough tax money today so we can pay it ourselves, to avoid those extortionists showing up again and demanding some tea‑water fee or cart‑axle fee."
