Joyful Motherhood in a Rural Family

Chapter 675: Chapter 675: The Crispy Fried Grasshopper
 

He looked so innocent with his harmless smile.

Liu Sisi was furious!

What did he mean by she was in charge?

This man was pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger! Sadly, she only realized this now.

“Di Yelei, you bastard!”

She lunged at him, swearing to make him pay! She attacked him with both her hands and feet.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Let you be mischievous, let you bully me, let you act innocent after taking advantage! Let you…”

She vented her anger but didn’t notice the man’s eyes growing deeper and deeper.

Her fragrant body was in his arms, continuously rubbing against him. No man could resist this unconscious provocation, and Di Yelei was no exception!

Suddenly, he flipped her over, and their positions changed. He leaned down and looked at her.

“It seems that your stamina is pretty good, my little kitten! Or is it because my massage made you uncomfortable? How about we do it again?”

What did he mean by ‘uncomfortable and do it again’?

At this moment, she finally realized her big mistake and angrily roared: “Di Yelei, get off of me!”

But what answered her was his series of crazy demands.

She tried to escape with all her strength but was easily caught by him.

After a while, she had no strength even to move her fingers. Her whole body was weak and powerless, allowing him to do whatever he wanted.

She felt she couldn’t take it anymore, and the slight tingling sensation, like ant bites, was becoming more and more intense. It almost drowned her entire being.

All she could do was instinctively cry out: “Ye Lei! Ye Lei…”

But he became more and more enthusiastic, as if being driven mad by that intense stranglehold feeling!

“Sisi, don’t be afraid, I know what you want.”

He took a deep breath, bent his arms, and trapped her directly in a very limited, narrow space. Then he began his crazy demands.

“Ye Lei!” Liu Sisi screamed!

As they reached the summit again in his deep exploration, he sent them both to the heavenly clouds.

At the end of July, the sun was scorching hot.

Even early in the morning, the fiery red disc was already high in the sky, baking the earth madly!

Liu Sisi felt as if she had been run over by a train, every part of her body ached!

She moaned in pain and struggled to open her eyes several times.

In her view, the windowsill was half-open, with a tall vase on it. Cape jasmine flowers were placed in the vase, emitting a rich fragrance.

This was the scent Liu Sisi loved.

She closed her eyes again and after some time, she reopened them. When her memories returned, she furrowed her eyebrows and moved her legs. A strange feeling immediately spread through her.

Remembering Di Yelei’s madness last night, she cursed with hatred. With an effort, she got up from the bed, grabbed the thin bedsheet from the straw mat, and called out.

“Nanny Hu, Nanny Hu!”

Old Granny Hu entered the room with a smile on her face: “Madam, you’re awake? The Old Master left before dawn, saying he was going to attend to some official business. He told this servant that you were tired yesterday and let you sleep a little longer. Madam, do you want to take a bath? The hot water is ready.”

Granny Hu appeared very enthusiastic.

Liu Sisi’s face turned red instantly, even the tips of her toes blushed!

She lowered her head, barely nodding imperceptibly. Damn Di Yelei, actually telling everyone about what happened last night.

When he comes back, she would settle accounts with him properly!

“Alright, Madam, please wait a moment, I’ll bring the hot water right away.”

Granny Hu happily retreated.

Left behind, Liu Sisi’s face flushed as she couldn’t help but recall the madness between them last night…

After washing up and relaxing in a hot bath, Liu Sisi finally felt much better.

It was already late, and Liu Sisi hurriedly ate her breakfast before rushing to visit YingEr. YingEr was propped up against the bedside, her face smiled, but carried an indescribable sense of dejection.

The moment she saw Liu Sisi come in, her bright eyes lit up instantly!

“Mom, have you finished your work?”

“Mom got up late this morning. Did YingEr sleep well last night?”

She carefully fixed the strands of hair falling on YingEr’s forehead, looking at the still dark circles under her eyes and her rapidly thinning face, she felt a surge of heartache.

“YingEr slept very well. Mom, how are the little brothers and sisters? YingEr wants to see them.” Her voice was weak.

“Do you want to see your little brothers and sisters? Let mom bring them over to you, alright?”

YingEr had been lonely while recovering from her illness here, so it might be good to let the children cheer her up for a while.

Liu Sisi hurriedly instructed the nanny to bring the children over.

Although the three little ones were not even two months old, it was easy to see their different personalities.

After Niuniu was placed on the head of the bed, she immediately opened her eyes and looked around curiously, as if everything around her was interesting. Chou Chou slept soundly from beginning to end, without even opening his eyes. In contrast, the youngest one tilted his head to look at YingEr as soon as he entered the room, then laughed out loud.

It seemed as if he was mocking YingEr’s face, which was covered in herbal medicine and appeared colorful.

Liu Sisi felt as if she was going crazy, this was an infant who was not even two months old, how could he understand the concept of mocking?

With three little ones playing with YingEr, they played for most of the day. Liu Sisi saw that YingEr seemed a bit tired, so she instructed the nanny to take the children out.

“Mom, just go on with your work! YingEr wants to be alone for a while.”

Looking at YingEr, who seemed to be half-asleep and half-awake, Liu Sisi lovingly pulled a thin quilt over her: “Are you sure you’ll be alright? Or should mom wait until you fall asleep first before going?”

“No, mom.” YingEr urged her.

“Alright, I’ll be in the next room, just call for Xue Yi and Xue Lan if you need anything.”

Xue Lan was originally by Di Xuan’s side, but after YingEr was injured and brought back, Xuan’er assigned Xue Lan to help take care of her. Liu Sisi thought that that was better, as YingEr was having difficulty moving around and an extra person to help was always good – so she let Xue Lan stay.

As soon as Liu Sisi left the room, the smile on YingEr’s face disappeared.

She painfully covered her chest, biting her teeth hard to prevent herself from groaning.

“Mom, YingEr’s chest hurts so much…” she murmured, but didn’t dare to call out loudly.

She had already caused too much trouble for the family. She needed to be brave, and never be naughty again.

Liu Sisi was listening to Shopkeeper Gu’s report: “As for those grasshoppers that were handed in the day before, we deep-fried them and sold them directly at the wine house under our name, selling for three to five copper coins each. Even locations like the Silver Pavilion and tea houses have the deep-fried grasshoppers served as a small dish, with the general selling price of one to three copper coins.”

“Oh? How is the business with the deep-fried grasshoppers?” Liu Sisi asked curiously.

In her previous life, deep-fried grasshoppers were a famous dish. Although some people here didn’t dare to eat them, once someone tried them, others were bound to follow suit, right?
