The visual impact was countless times greater than what he had experienced in his daily life!

Suddenly, he felt a heat, a surge of hot blood rushing from somewhere!

In his eyes, only the trembling tip was constantly shaking in front of him, gradually enlarging…

Undeniably, though he said he didn’t care about Sisi’s past, the moment he knew Sisi was still pure, he was completely surrounded by surprise and joy!

This indescribable feeling was like owning the whole world in an instant.

That disobedient part of him was clamoring to break free from its cage, vent its anger, and bury itself in the land of happiness for repeated exploration, feeling very satisfied.

A cold breeze blew, and he shivered violently, finally waking from this trance.

His mind was bewildered, and he secretly felt ashamed. When did he fall into the ranks of inexperienced youngsters!

He was 28 years old now, and the other party was only fifteen. The feeling of an old cow eating tender grass surged in his heart. What a sin!

Looking up, there was no more figure on the window, and the voices of Sisi and YingEr were coming from inside the room. Listening carefully, it was clear that YingEr was urging Sisi to bathe together.

Shared bathing?

A picture suddenly appeared in front of Di Yelei’s eyes…

In the misty fog, a rich floral fragrance filled the air, and a jade-like figure sat in the bathtub, scooping warm water and sprinkling it down from the air.

The flowers floating on the water raised and slowly fell with her movement, landing on her crystal-clear, jade-like skin.

As her arm raised, the wine-red rose-filled water rippled beneath the surface.

With her eyes half-closed, her face showed tenderness and honeyed sentiment, and a few strands of laziness brought out an enchanting charm.

The playful water droplets slid down her arm like broken beads, slowly dripping…

He approached silently, carefully gazing at the arm exposed above the water, feeling his blood boiling…

Creak!

The room door was suddenly opened, and a swaying candlelight flowed through the crack.

The sudden light shone on his face, waking Di Yelei from his trance and instinctively stretching his hand to block the dazzling radiance.

Looking at the light source, he saw Sisi struggling with a barrel of bathwater coming out of the inner room. He hurriedly went to meet her.

“Here, give me the barrel! Such a heavy barrel, don’t hurt your hand.” While speaking, he took the wooden barrel and quickly turned around and left, as if a ghost was chasing him from behind.

Liu Sisi watched Di Yelei’s weird walking posture, locking her eyebrows in confusion.

When Sisi came back to the room after settling YingEr, she found that Di Yelei had placed the bamboo bed and wooden bed side by side. The bed seemed to be countless times larger, so there was no need to worry about the heat!

At this time, Di Yelei was busy laying the mat and diligently avoiding Liu Sisi’s gaze.

“It’s not early, you should go to sleep! There are still some bamboo strips left, which I can use to weave bamboo baskets and dustpans.”

Having said that, his eyes didn’t meet Liu Sisi’s, and he almost fled in defeat!

“But it’s already very late, why don’t you do it tomorrow…”

Before Liu Sisi could finish her words, Di Yelei had already walked out quickly, slamming the door shut and startling her.

He had been acting strangely today. Was it because Xuan’er was upset at the old house and it made him feel bad?

Yes, that must be the reason.

Since returning from the market, Liu Sisi had kept busy until now, when she finally had a chance to carefully organize today’s income.

After expenses for buying cloth and grain, she still had 14,213 coins left. She had taken more than one tael of silver from the damned Fatty and the rascals, making a total of 15 taels and 432 copper coins. This was already two-thirds of the 20 taels of silver needed to repay her debt.

She was very satisfied with the progress, and it seemed that it would not take half a year before the “huge sum” for an ordinary farmer’s family could be cleared!

Liu Sisi counted several times, put the small amounts of silver in her pocket, and picked up the 15 taels of silver, considering where would be safe enough to hide it.

Looking around, Liu Sisi first dug a hole under the bed corner, buried the silver, and filled the hole with dirt.

This was just a temporary storage place. As one clever rabbit has three burrows, she shouldn’t put all her eggs in the same basket.

The hiding place for silver must be safe and secure, and withstand numerous searches without being found. Although Ms. Wang had sworn not to take things again, it didn’t mean that she wouldn’t manipulate others to do so. To Liu Sisi, she couldn’t afford to take the slightest chance. Hiding a small amount in each place and even if she lost some of it, she would still have the remaining silver left.

Could this adobe wall and thatched hut keep out a real thief?

She didn’t believe it!

Liu Sisi blew out the lamp and slowly lay down on the bed. The bamboo bed was indeed much cooler than the wooden one, and the biggest reason was that she was the only person on the bed! For Liu Sisi, who had been used to sleeping alone in her previous life, there was nothing more comfortable than getting a good night’s sleep alone!

After thinking about it for a long time, Liu Sisi finally fell asleep. It wasn’t until Di Yelei finished weaving two bamboo baskets by moonlight that he took a bath and returned to the room.

Liu Sisi in the room was already fast asleep. She was lying sideways on the big bed with an awful sleeping posture, hugging two pillows, her back facing Di Yelei, and her body twisted into an S-shape.

Gazing at the curved Liu Sisi, Di Yelei couldn’t help but extend his hand, cautiously touching her slender waist lightly, then quickly withdrew.

His heart was pounding like a drum, as if it would jump out of his chest the next moment.

After a while, Liu Sisi made no movement, still sound asleep.

Di Yelei regained his courage, and his wolfish hand reached out towards the sleeping girl again.

This time, his target was not her slender waist but her chest that trembled with every breath.

Liu Sisi was still sleeping soundly, completely unaware of the danger behind her.

His eyes were as red as blood, and his breathing became increasingly heavy, with trembling wolf-like paws slowly approaching, crossing her back, following her lying body, slowly reaching forward and aiming to grab…

“Mmm, hmm.”

Liu Sisi instinctively turned onto her back, barely missing the hand that Di Yelei had reached towards her.

She still held the two pillows in her arms, using her hand to brush off the stubborn strands of hair from her neck that Di Yelei’s heavy breath had blown onto her, revealing her slender swan neck.

She remained completely unaware of her dangerous situation, found a satisfactory sleeping position, and continued to plunge into dreamland.

With her movement, the neckline of her inner garment was pulled and the exquisite skin that was exposed.
