The Magnificent Son-in-law Chapter 805: Leaving the Village

In the morning, golden sunlight spilled across the earth.

Nie Longjiao sat up reluctantly while scratching her hair, her eyes half-open.

She squinted at the familiar surroundings, planning to sleep a few more minutes.

However, as soon as she lay down, she felt as if she had hit a spring and sat up again.

Her beautiful eyes widened, and she hurriedly lifted the quilt to check that her clothes were still on, finally relaxing.

The reason for all these actions was because she saw a bed made up on the floor opposite her.

"Why am I sleeping on the bed?" Nie Longjiao rubbed the back of her neck, trying hard to recall last night's events.

Thinking back, she rembered sleeping on the floor bed, and seed to force herself to stay up all night.

As she pondered, Xiao Feng walked in and laughed seeing Nie Longjiao's confused expression, "You look like you've got amnesia."

"I rember sleeping on the floor bed last night," Nie Longjiao said softly.

"Yeah." Xiao Feng nodded, "You did sleep on the floor bed."

"Then how did I end up here?"

"Really don't rember?"

Nie Longjiao rolled her eyes dramatically and sulkily said, "If I rembered, would I be asking you?"

Xiao Feng imdiately beca displeased; her tone was quite arrogant.

He rolled his eyes and corrected his expression, "You might have somnambulism."

"Somnambulism?"

"Yeah, somnambulism." Xiao Feng asserted.

Nie Longjiao frowned, "Firstly, I don't have somnambulism.

Secondly, assuming I did, then tell , what did I do sleepwalking last night?"

"Oh, that was quite the spectacle." Xiao Feng beca animated imdiately, his eyebrows dancing with excitent, "In the middle of the night, I was awake from your noise.

I opened my eyes and saw you starting to undress."

Nie Longjiao's face was full of disbelief, but she still asked, "And then?"

"Then you went crazy, pouncing on , hugging and kissing."

"And then?"

"I thought you were possessed, but you claid you were fully conscious and, because I helped you, you repaid in this way, hoping I wouldn't mind."

"Continue." Nie Longjiao said expressionlessly, "Keep making it up."

Xiao Feng shrugged, "Believe it or not, the truth is, I didn't sleep all night.

Since you could move from the floor to the bed, you might as well imagine what I might have done."

"Boring!" Nie Longjiao said irritably, "Move aside, I need to freshen up."

In fact, if Xiao Feng hadn't joked like this, she might have actually worried.

But after his explanation, Nie Longjiao found herself at ease.

Although their ti together wasn't long, Nie Longjiao could make a judgnt.

While Xiao Feng isn't a saint, he isn't a malicious villain or a an person either.

Other than annoying conversations, he's quite acceptable otherwise.

Nie Lan approached the bathroom door, urging, "Hurry up, hurry up! Look at Xiao Feng, he watered the garden early in the morning.

And look at you, lazy to the core, dragging on just to wash your face and brush your teeth.

If I were Xiao Feng, I'd have ditched you long ago!"

Nie Longjiao wiped her face and said impatiently, "Then have him call you mom."

"I wish! But you can't even set a wedding date. Xiao Feng is such a good kid, I don't know what you're thinking." Nie Lan complained.

"Alright, alright, alright!" Nie Longjiao said, exasperated, "Please stop nagging, I'm heading out now."

After speaking, she returned the towel, toothbrush, and cup, and left the bathroom.

Sitting at the dining table, Nie Longjiao looked around, puzzled, "Where's dad?"

"Squatting at the door." Nie Lan replied while drinking porridge.

"Why are you 'abusing' dad again?"

"Who's abusing him?" Nie Lan said unhappily, "He embarrassed himself drinking too much last night."

Xiao Feng thought for a mont, then reminded, "Auntie, don't buy Hangover Redy for Uncle anymore."

"Why?" Nie Lan paused, looking puzzled.

Xiao Feng explained, "A friend of mine is a doctor and he ntioned Hangover Redy reduces one's natural tolerance each ti it's consud.

And after prolonged use, it loses its effectiveness."

Just as he finished speaking, Nie Shouping burst in, angrily pointing at Nie Lan, "So my tolerance plumted because of you!"

"That's nonsense, I didn't harm you," Nie Lan scoffed, "Weren't you aware of your original tolerance?"

Nie Shouping's face reddened with anger, "Without exaggeration, when we got married, three to five bottles were child's play."

"Of water, right?" Nie Lan teased lightly.

"No, white liquor, real Erguotou!"

"Next ti you boast, go big. Say you can drink three to five barrels. Isn't that more impressive than bottles?"

"You've really beco good at arguing," Nie Shouping slamd the table, "What good does it do you to anger to death?"

Nie Lan chuckled, "Well, is there anything I'm not allowed to do?"

"No, you have to explain clearly today." Nie Shouping's stubbornness flared, determined to get to the bottom of it.

Nie Lan thought for a bit then replied, "It's beneficial in many ways, notably I wouldn't have to watch you rant drunkenly often.

Then I'd sell the house, move to the city with my daughter and son-in-law, and find a younger companion.

Play mahjong, dance in the square, and cradle grandchildren; that would be a blissful life."

Nie Shouping gasped heavily, looking at Nie Longjiao, "Daughter, did you hear what your mom just said?"

Xiao Feng intervened, "Loving to drink isn't a big deal. I know two friends who are skilled traditional dicine practitioners. We can maybe get a prescription for him.

If that doesn't work, then switch to herbal wine, and I can have it delivered."

Nie Shouping was deeply touched, "Brother…"

Just as he spoke, Nie Lan smacked him on the back of his head, "What generation are you two?"

Nie Shouping recalled, "Oh right, Xiao Feng, I'm not sure how to express my gratitude. Consider this your ho, do visit often."

"I will." Xiao Feng nodded.

After breakfast, Nie Shouping led Xiao Feng and Nie Longjiao out of the village.

Nie Lan still followed, specially preparing many local specialties for Xiao Feng to take.

Everyone talked and laughed, happily together.

The only exception was Nie Longjiao, who truly didn't know how to handle this.

She originally planned to find soone to pretend to be her boyfriend just to bluff about it, but who knew it would turn out like this.

Looks like she can only drag it out and say they broke up if it doesn't work out.
