Cultivation Begins with Caring for Sister-in-law Chapter 266: Ning Wan’s Solitude
Outside the window ledge, Ning Wan was squatting and eavesdropping. Upon hearing the conversation inside ntioning herself in a manner unsuitable for children, she thought to herself, "This woman is so wicked, she really can speak such nonsense..."
Ning Wan didn’t know what ca to mind, as a sense of shyness shrouded Yunli’s brows and eyes, her flushed cheeks hot like fire, her breathing inevitably hastened a bit.
He seed to have indeed peeked at her many tis.
And that look, truly was one that shouldn’t be directed at an elder.
Thinking of this, her chest heaved more violently.
Just as she was discarding these strange thoughts, the door suddenly opened,
Ning Wan, squatting under the window ledge, was so frightened she stood up imdiately, and when she saw it was Chen Mo coming out, her face turned a shade of pale.
"Aunt Ning?" Chen Mo frowned lightly and said, "Why did you co? Is there sothing?"
This feeling of being caught doing sothing wrong, Ning Wan only felt utterly ashad, but seeing Chen Mo hadn’t noticed she was eavesdropping, she quickly squeezed out a smile, yet her radiant and beautiful face seed a bit unnatural, she hastily said, "Yes... Yes."
"Then Aunt Ning, wait a mont, I’ll put on my shoes first." Without waiting for Ning Wan to reply, Chen Mo turned back inside,
This made Ning Wan swallow the words "It’s not urgent, we can talk tomorrow," which were on the tip of her tongue, busying herself in thinking about what to ask Chen Mo later.
Inside, Liang Xue and Xia Zhining were done fighting.
Xia Zhining slightly won, with not much disparity in abilities between them. Having been on the battlefield and experienced life and death, Xia Zhining evidently had the upper hand with her rich experience compared to Liang Xue.
Liang Xue was pressed down by Xia Zhining like a horse.
"Slap, let you hit my butt."
"Slap, let you treat rudely."
"Slap, I’ll give you a lesson."
Xia Zhining chided Liang Xue, seeing Chen Mo coming in and putting on his shoes, she said, "What happened?"
"Aunt Ning ca, looking for for sothing." Chen Mo said.
Xia Zhining’s lips curled into a aningful smile, glanced at the girl below, and said, "It’s better to seize the day than pick a day, didn’t you say Chen Family has few people? Later, just drag her in."
Chen Mo frowned, pulled Xia Zhining off Liang Xue and pressed her down, then said to Liang Xue, "Xue’er, co quickly, I’ve got her pinned for you."
Seeing this, Liang Xue imdiately rolled over to take charge.
Chen Mo walked towards the outside, behind him continuously sounded Xia Zhining’s angry voice: "I knew you’re a liar, forgetting the old when having soone new, I misjudged you..."
"Slap." Before Xia Zhining could finish her words, Liang Xue retaliated with her own thod.
Furious, Xia Zhining got up again, entangled with Liang Xue once more.
...
Outside the courtyard, Ning Wan in a pink dress, with snowy skin and a jade face, her eyes gentle and composed, her brows constantly wandering, her hands awkwardly not knowing where to place, in the night air, that rich aura of a married woman silently pervaded.
Because of the thin attire, her body’s curves were fully outlined, sowhat resembling those seen by Chen Mo online with others wearing tight stepmother dresses.
Just with Ning Wan slightly turning sideways, Chen Mo could see that proud curve on her waist.
Seeing Ning Wan remaining silent, Chen Mo’s gaze deepened, he said, "Aunt Ning, just say whatever you have on your mind."
But Ning Wan hadn’t thought about what to ask yet, hearing Chen Mo’s inquiry, her heart panicked a bit, after a quick thought, she blurted out, "I don’t know where my husband has gone, Marquis, can you help send a ssage back to the Ning Family? If... there’s an unforeseen event, I could let Ning Family co to fetch ."
After saying this, Ning Wan regretted it.
The Ning Family was far from Yu State, rely to send a ssage, and there were conflicts between the two sides, such a favor would be greatly indebted.
Moreover, her words sounded sowhat like she hoped Liang Song wouldn’t fare well.
But having spoken it, she could only lower her head, a slight embarrassed blush erging on her plump, snowy jade cheeks.
This was essentially a fabricated concern by Ning Wan, she didn’t want Chen Mo to agree, so quickly added, "I know... My request is a bit difficult, it’s a slip of the tongue, just act as if I never said it."
Yet hearing this, Chen Mo suddenly felt she was being sarcastic towards him, but still truthfully said: "Huai State, Jiangdong, and other places aren’t on good terms with , and I’ve already left the Celestial Master Army, now it’s not possible to go from Fengzhou, so sending a ssage from these places simply can’t reach West River.
If it goes around, the ti will be too long, and now both the Liang Family, Ning Family, and even King Chong misunderstand deeply, if my people really go, fear they’ll have a hard ti returning, if it’s just to send a ssage, and there’s a mishap, I truly couldn’t explain to those below."
Chen Mo declined.
Though Ning Wan hadn’t truly intended to seek help with this matter, hearing Chen Mo’s refusal, her heart felt blocked.
Indeed, what he previously said about finding him if there’s anything, was truly just adult politeness.
Now that there’s really sothing to seek him for, he explicitly refused.
Anyway, she actually had been prepared for this.
After Liang Song left here, Longn County to her was just a familiar na.
She was indeed alone in Yu State without support.
But truly reaching this point, Ning Wan still felt deeply sorrowful, a thick sense of loneliness and unease surged within her heart.
If Liang Song truly, truly, truly did abandon her, then she genuinely wouldn’t know what to do...
"It’s nothing." Ning Wan steadied herself, slightly sniffed as if a tear was about to flow but she inhaled it back, revealing a bright smile, said, "Yes... I was impulsive, if so, I’ll head back first."
"Aunt Ning, although I can’t help send the letter, I can help get the word out that Ning Family can co redeem you, ensuring money for people to leave, but whether it can reach Ning Family’s ears, I can’t guarantee." Chen Mo said.
"Thank you..." Ning Wan nodded.
Returning to her room, Ning Wan couldn’t hold back any longer, leaning against the door, squatted down, her body slightly twitching, she hugged her knees, softly sobbing.
anwhile, the lamp inside the room had burned out, as the light extinguished, the room plunged into darkness, with only the sound of the wind whistling outside reaching Ning Wan’s ears.
A deep sense of loneliness spread throughout the room, Ning Wan cried more loudly.
...
The next day.
Chen Mo in Yu State, Linzhou, and various places, bought large quantities of wine and at, then had them sent to the barracks in Sanyuan, Shuofei County, Xiangfen City, Longn County, Shiling County, and other counties.
After conquering the Three States, Chen Mo planned to manage well, avoiding further conflicts if unnecessary.
So now that the warfare had completely ended, naturally, he should reward his soldiers, treating it as a celebration banquet for them.
In the barracks at Longn County.
Since Chen Mo was at Longn County, he joyously drank with the Three Guards stationed there.
Shortly, the entire barracks was filled with a rich aroma of at, countless wine jars placed on the training ground.
ps: There will be an additional Chapter tonight!
