3: Brother Tongzi, on your wedding night, can you please be a little quieter?
The red candles flickered as two unfamiliar Souls became deeply intertwined on this night.
Their distance went from positive to negative, merging into one.
From this day forward, they were a husband and wife who would share both honor and disgrace.
The well-behaved and sensible Jiang Shuwan was meticulous and considerate, thoughtfully serving the disabled Feng Ming.
They didn't rest for the entire night.
At an age full of vigor, combined with the effects of the phoenix and luan pill...
Feng Ming was more frenzied than ever before.
Neither of them noticed that their cultivation was also steadily rising during the process of Dual Cultivation.
The System's voice rang out one after another.
[Ding! Host has successfully spoiled his wife. Jiang Shuwan's favorability has increased to 15%!]
[Ding! Host has successfully spoiled his wife. Jiang Shuwan's favorability has increased to 20%!]
[Ding! Host has successfully spoiled his wife. Jiang Shuwan's favorability has increased to 25%!]
[...]
At this moment, Feng Ming was busy "plowing" and had no time to pay attention to the System's voice.
He even felt that the System's notification sounds were quite the mood killer.
It wasn't until dawn that the room finally grew quiet.
Jiang Shuwan was exhausted, curled up in Feng Ming's arms, sleeping soundly.
With a soft, fragrant beauty in his arms, Feng Ming felt very satisfied... The next day.
Just as dawn broke.
Feng Ming felt the little person in his arms start to move.
He grabbed her and pulled her back into his embrace.
"It's so early, where are you going?"
"Husband, it's time to get up."
Speaking of this, Feng Ming felt a bit helpless.
In his past life as an office worker, rising earlier than a rooster and sleeping later than a dog was one thing.
But the people in this world were even more extreme; everyone got up around six in the morning.
The original owner had a decent background; his life wasn't wealthy, but it wasn't bad either. Plus, with his disabled legs, no one forced him to do anything.
Sleeping until he woke up naturally was no problem.
As soon as Jiang Shuwan spoke, Feng Ming knew this girl was the type who didn't dare to wake up late.
But that was before; now she was his wife, so naturally, she had to sleep until she woke up naturally with him.
"Don't get up. It's not even light out yet. We went to bed so late last night, sleep a bit longer."
Jiang Shuwan's pretty face turned slightly red as she said...
"Husband, it's already this time. If we don't get up, people will laugh at us. Besides, we have to serve tea to the Family elders today."
Feng Ming pulled Jiang Shuwan back under the covers and said drowsily...
"You are my wife. With me protecting you, there's no need to worry about others laughing. From now on, you'll sleep until you wake up naturally before getting up."
Having been reborn, Feng Ming didn't want to be some Involution King.
He held Jiang Shuwan and continued to sleep soundly.
Looking at Feng Ming's sleeping face, Jiang Shuwan felt a bit of an aching fullness in her heart, yet it was also sweet.
In the Jiang Family, no one had ever cared if she had rested well or if she needed to rest.
Let alone sleeping until she woke up naturally.
Yet the man before her was truly meticulous and gentle, doting on her immensely.
Aren't these the details that women care about most?
Wiping away her tears, Jiang Shuwan hugged Feng Ming and buried her head in his chest.
Feng Ming's arms tightened around Jiang Shuwan. In his mind, the System's voice rang out.
[Ding! Congratulations Host on successfully spoiling your wife. Jiang Shuwan's favorability has increased to 30%]
Being woken up, Feng Ming was very annoyed.
"System Bro, it's my wedding night, can you give it a rest?"
After a while, around seven o'clock, Jiang Shuwan couldn't stay in bed any longer.
She gently moved Feng Ming's hand away and got out of bed stealthily.
Just as she opened the door, a Maid came forward to greet her.
"Madam, do you need anything? Why have you woken up so early?"
"The Second Young Master specifically instructed us not to disturb you so early."
Jiang Shuwan was stunned, then the corners of her mouth curled up, her heart feeling warm.
Her husband had actually been so thoughtful.
But the more he was like this, the more she couldn't allow him to be criticized by others.
"I woke up, so I got up. Lead me to wash up."
"By the way, what is your name?"
"In reply to Madam, this servant is called Chun Tao. The Second Young Master has already instructed me to serve by the Young Madam's side from now on."
Jiang Shuwan shook her head. "You were with my husband before, so continue to look after him. I can take care of myself."
Though she refused, Jiang Shuwan felt very comforted and warm inside.
In the Jiang Family, she was just an unimportant concubine-born Young Miss and didn't have the right to a Maid; she did everything herself.
She hadn't expected that after marrying into the Feng Family, her husband would arrange a Maid for her.
Even if there was only one, it was enough to see his care for her.
After washing up...
Jiang Shuwan asked Chun Tao, "Where has my mother been settled? Take me to see her."
Chun Tao hurriedly led the way.
In another courtyard, Jiang Shuwan saw her mother, Ye Min, who had come with her.
"Shuwan."
It had only been one night, but seeing each other again felt like a long separation.
Ye Min had already washed and put on makeup, yet she still couldn't hide her haggard face.
Seeing Jiang Shuwan, her eyes turned red.
"Mother, what's wrong?"
Jiang Shuwan's heart tightened, thinking her mother had been mistreated.
Ye Min grabbed Jiang Shuwan's hand, her face full of heartache. "I've wronged you. Your mother didn't know beforehand that Feng Mian was someone with walking difficulties."
"If you are unhappy, even if your mother has to risk her life, I will definitely help you escape this fire pit."
"Mother..." Jiang Shuwan quickly stopped Ye Min. "Mother, he isn't Feng Mian."
"What?" Ye Min's eyes widened. "Then who is he?"
"It's Feng Mian's younger brother, Feng Ming."
Ye Min was furious. "The Feng Family is truly infuriating!"
"The Feng Family was once a great Family; how could they do such an absurd thing, to insult us mother and child like this?"
"Do they really think our Jiang Family is easy to bully?"
"Mother, it's not like that. Please calm down first."
Jiang Shuwan quickly held back the nearly explosive Ye Min.
"Mother, the reason the Feng Family did this is because Feng Mian was delayed by matters at the Sect and couldn't make it back. Because they didn't dare offend the Jiang Family, this situation of the younger brother marrying the elder brother's bride happened."
"And Feng Ming confessed everything to me last night. I don't blame him."
Ye Min snorted coldly. "What's the use of confessing? What's done is done. Could he possibly let you go back? Besides, with those legs of his, under normal circumstances, could he even get a wife?"
"I was already sad about you marrying into the Feng Family, and it turns out you married a..."
Ye Min didn't say the word "cripple."
But her expression was agitated; she was clearly very angry.
Jiang Shuwan struggled to comfort her. "Mother, please don't be angry. Although Feng Ming's legs are inconvenient, he is a very good person."
"Last night, he even gave me a choice, saying he could give me a Letter of Separation and let me leave, and even give me Travel Expenses. If I was unwilling, I could also stay and wait for his elder brother."
"This morning, he was even more concerned for me, pulling me to sleep until seven before getting up, and he even instructed the Maid to call me at nine."
"In the Jiang Family, I didn't even dare to wake up at seven. Although I haven't known him long, I can feel his sincerity. I am willing to be married to him."
Ye Min looked at her daughter with a face full of heartache.
"You silly girl, his legs are like that, can you really be happy?"
Jiang Shuwan's face reddened. "Mother, he just can't move them; it doesn't affect his... ability. And I am an Alchemist."
"As long as there's enough time, I can definitely cure him."
"Please don't tell the Family Head about this, and don't tell anyone else. I believe Feng Ming can make me happy."
