Chapter 13: As You Think, So Shall It Be

  Chapter 13: As You Think, So Shall It Be

  The more Su Ying said that, the more uncomfortable Fu Yeyang felt. How could Wei's mother be considered kind with such a temperament? He also saw the melancholy in Su Ying's eyes and knew she was thinking of the child they couldn't have together. He couldn't help but hold one of her hands in his palm, feeling that her fingertips were still icy cold, and furrowed his brow involuntarily.

  They had been sitting in the warm room for a while, but how could her hands still be cold? Looking at her thin face again, thinking that her own body was not fully recovered, and there was such a big Hou Mansion to take care of, she couldn't bear to let her worry about taking care of Big Sister anymore.

  "Let Wei's family take care of it for now, we'll talk about it when the eldest daughter is feeling better." Fu Yeyang held onto Su Ying's hand and didn't plan on letting go. Su Ying struggled a bit but couldn't break free, and she couldn't help but glance at Master Fu. Being glanced at by her, Master Fu cleared his throat and turned away, asking: "Why aren't you wearing the bracelet I sent over?"

  Su Ying's fingertips lightly slid over Fu Ye Yang's palm, then naturally withdrew her hand to tuck it into her sleeve. Her voice was soft and gentle, like a fluttering flower petal brushing against his heart, "How did you know I wasn't wearing one?"

  Fu Yiyang's heart itched, ever since he came back from outside, he had been thinking about Su Ying's delicious meat, but until now, he still hadn't tasted it, and the more he thought about it, the more he craved it.

  Su Ying said so, Fu Yiyang was curious in his heart and didn't dare to break the pot to ask the bottom. His eyes involuntarily glanced at Su Ying's wrist.

  Su Ying found it amusing and subtly moved her wrist, revealing a fair-skinned wrist. She was no longer just skin and bones, but still couldn't pull off rich colors, so she avoided wearing those old clothes that made her look older and more mature.

  It turns out that Su's foundation is very good, but she herself has been dressing up in a dignified manner, and has neglected her own age and temperament. Not to mention standing with Fu Yeyang, even standing with several aunts, she looks older than them.

  Men are visual animals, and Fu Yeyang, who claims to be a gentleman, is no exception. After several days of testing, Su Ying also discovered that this old man has high requirements for women's appearance, emphasizing the importance of being visually appealing, which is exactly what he likes.

  Knowing when to refuse and when to accept is also a skill.

  Su Ying pretended not to notice Fu Yeyang's occasional inquiring glances, and twice unintentionally raised her head to meet the old master's line of sight. The first time they met, Fu Yeyang was somewhat uncomfortable, pursed his lips, and casually picked up a dish he had never tasted before, placing it on Su Ying's plate, saying: "This dish is decent, try some?"

  When they met again for the second time, Su Ying smiled slightly at him, with a hint of awkwardness. Fu Da Lao Ye cleared his throat: "How's your body now? I heard that you've stopped taking the medicine prescribed by the doctor? That's good, after all, medicine is three parts poison. When illness comes, it's like a mountain collapsing, and when it goes, it's like pulling out silk threads. From now on, take good care of yourself, and if your mood improves, maybe the illness will follow suit."

  This was the first time Fu Yiyang had spoken such a long comforting speech to Su Qing, and even the other night when Su Qing cried, he was very clumsy in comforting her, repeating just a few sentences. At this moment, Su Qing felt deeply moved by Master's thoughtful words, her smile deepened, and her eyes softened. The lamp light illuminated her, making her look elegant and gentle, yet not cold. The emerald green earring shaped like a water droplet on her earlobe added a warm touch, causing Master's gaze to deepen, his Adam's apple moved slightly.

  Su Ying saw that it was good and decided to stop, she thought it was quite interesting, but didn't know what else this old man could come up with to change the subject.

  Only the two of them were left in the house, Su Ying was very comfortable in her own room, but Fu Yeyang looked around and felt a bit uncomfortable. He couldn't just bluntly say "Let's take a break and do that thing".

  Su Ying smiled with her mouth pursed, sitting in front of the dresser and removing the hairpins from her hair, leaving only a pair of emerald green earrings on her ears. As she smoothed out her hair, the earrings sparkled in and out of sight, catching Fu Ye Yang's attention as he sat not far away. He leaned over to press down on her shoulder, his demeanor no longer as awkward as it was when the maid was around, trying to change the subject. His hand naturally reached up to touch her earlobe, soft and delicate, making him feel a little distracted. Their eyes met in the mirror, Su Ying's sparkling with amusement: "You've never worn this pendant before?"

  "How is it, does it look good?" Su Ying tilted her head slightly with a bit of coquetry. Fu Yeyang hadn't reacted yet, but she felt a little embarrassed instead. She reached out to touch the earrings, but unexpectedly touched Fu's fingers, and was suddenly grasped, pulled towards the kang (heated bed platform).

  "I think it's pretty good." Nor did he know whether he was talking about the earrings or the person, and he thought of that string of pearls again. "You wear jade and pearls well."

  Su Ying raised her eyes and smiled at him, "I really like the bracelet you gave me, but it's a bit long on my wrist." She clearly didn't finish what she was saying, as Fu Ye Yang pulled her onto the kang, his heart racing with anticipation that was about to burst into flames as soon as he took off Su Ying's outer jacket.

  Round and lustrous pearls hung from her powdered neck, disappearing into the pink lining of her inner garment. Under the dim yellow light, her pale face seemed to reflect the color of the lining as well.

  At this point, Fu Yiyang was no longer as anxious as before, his eyes blazing with fire, sitting motionless on the edge of the kang.

  Su Ying couldn't help but look up at him, and under the lamp, his eyes shone brightly, as if they could speak. Fu Yiyang couldn't help but think of when they had just gotten married, those lively and sparkling eyes would shyly avoid his gaze after a single glance, and soon her face would flush with redness. Now, these eyes had added a hint of seductiveness as a wife, but the way he couldn't help but steal glances at her was still unchanged.

  Fu Yiyang's heart skipped a beat, he took off his shoes and leaned in close to Su Ying, but his eyes slid down along the string of round pearls, "Is this worn as a necklace?"

  His warm breath pierced her ear, and Su Ying couldn't help but shrink back. This body was too sensitive, it was really not good enough. But she did this and instead amused Fu Yeyang, thinking that she was shy, and he couldn't help but reach out to touch her cheek. Since his return home, her complexion had improved day by day, and her face seemed to have gained some weight. This thought made Fu Yeyang feel happy from the bottom of his heart. "Let me see how beautiful my wife looks with this on?"

  Let's take a good look and savor it carefully. With the previous time being so close, this time finally no one disturbed us. If not, with a few more times like that, Master Fu would have been suffocated to death.

  In the past, both husband and wife were not very enthusiastic about such things. The wife should also be dignified in this matter, and Fu Yeyang was not that kind of person who valued it. This can be seen from the fact that he only had three concubines, and at most half a month would be spent in the backyard every month. Among them, the first and fifteenth days of each lunar month were always spent in the main house according to convention.

  The couple were both extremely reserved, and Fu Da had never seen Su Ying so charming before. Even his beloved Wei Niang wouldn't be as alluring in the bedchamber. Moreover, he had been craving this tender morsel for a long time, and now that he finally had it in his mouth, it was even more delicious than he had imagined. How could Fu Da possibly resist?

  The next day, Fu Yiyang got up early with a refreshed spirit, and after hugging Su Ying for a while, he let her go and said considerately: "I think you're exhausted, sleep in a bit more."

  Su Ying gave him a sideways glance, Fu Yeyang cleared his throat and patted her waist before calling someone in to attend to them.

  Su Ying hastily hid in the tent, and at night she was really exhausted. She not only overestimated the flexibility of this body, but also underestimated its sensitivity, and overestimated its physical strength. As it turned out, the system had foreseen this and had given her a book on "Flexible Body Techniques" early on, thinking about whether to start practicing it.

  She gave herself a hint that she was now the dignified and elegant legitimate wife, and it would be embarrassing in this situation. The string of pearls still hanging around her neck was casually taken off and stuffed under the pillow.

  Thinking of what that man did with this pearl necklace yesterday, her face couldn't help but flush red. Hearing the sound of Yiniang's footsteps, she quickly composed herself and tidied up her clothes before letting someone come in to clean up.

  Quietly watching, Gui's nanny knew that this time was successful, and she couldn't help but feel joyful, several big maids' faces were almost red as tomatoes, but they also couldn't help but feel happy for Su Ying.

  Su Ying secretly cursed: What kind of miserable state was the Su family in before, and yet they're so happy just because of this one thing?

  While sitting in front of the dresser being dressed up, Su Ying first went to check the task reward, and her face couldn't help but turn black.
