I'm already a concubine, who wants to fight with you?

Chapter 18 Measurement

Xie Fei pointed to the next room, where there were two full boxes of fabric.

"Do you think I'm so delicate that I can wear so much fabric?"

She was at the farm, unlike at Pei's house, where she had to wear some clothes over and over again, and definitely wouldn't change them out every two or three days and then throw them away.

The cloth of wooden boxes is easily damp and moth-eaten. If it is not fully used after a few years, it will eventually become rags.

Yuan San still refused. He lifted up the patched hem and looked at it, saying, "Girl, you don't understand. A man's clothes need to be tamed. I have finally tamed one, how can I bear to change it?"

Xie Fei rolled his eyes at him.

At night, Yuan San was guarding outside the porch.

He lay back in his quilt, legs crossed, a piece of grass in his mouth, looking at the watery stars in the sky.

As autumn approaches, I'm afraid it will rain.

In the room, Xie Fei and Fu Yu were talking.

Xie Fei stuffed a thin rope into Fu Yu's hand and whispered, "You go."

Fu Yu shook his head in resistance, with his hands tucked into his sleeves, like an old man taking a walk in the sun.

"Why don't you go?"

Xie Fei said angrily: "I am a married woman!"

Fu Yu was unconvinced and said, "I am still a virgin!"

This made sense. Xie Fei was discouraged, but he coaxed her with kind words, "You are still young, it's okay even if you bump into her twice. Good boy Fu Yu, measure his size and make clothes for him. I will reward you with an extra set of autumn clothes."

Fu Yu still refused and said, "Young lady, you are also strange. It's just to measure the size, why can't you go in person? If you say that men and women should not touch each other, why didn't you think about this when you performed the operation on Chen Dafa?"

Xie Fei said seriously: "In the eyes of doctors, the injured are just a piece of meat. Can I talk to a piece of meat?"

Now Yuan San is different. Yuan San is a grown man. If she were asked to "put her hands on" Yuan San, even if she was thick-skinned, she would still feel embarrassed.

Besides, at least in name, she was Pei Yuan's concubine.

Fu Yu didn't understand why Xie Fei was so coy all of a sudden, and said, "When we went to the mass graves and found dead bodies to practice, you didn't take these into consideration, did you?"

Xie Fei said angrily: "How can the living be the same as the dead? If you have to marry a man just because you see his body, we would have to hold hundreds of ghost marriages."

Fu Yu took another sip and said, "Feudal!"

Xie Fei was speechless.

It was her fault that she liked to talk about these things in the past, and Fu Yu would ask what she meant after hearing them. After she explained, Fu Yu found it interesting and would occasionally use these words to retort her.

The master and servant were whispering inside, and Yuan San outside could hear it clearly.

One day he would have to tactfully let the girl know that he had very sharp ears and eyes.

In the middle of the night, Xie Fei tiptoed out of the house.

She came to Yuan San and heard the man's even breathing, and judged that Yuan San was already asleep.

It was so cold at night, but he opened his clothes, revealing his strong and well-proportioned chest and abdominal muscles, which made it convenient for Xie Fei to "take action".

The rope was gently pulled open, and the man's shoulder width was measured first, and then Yuan San's waist was carefully measured.

Yuan San was tall and strong, with broad shoulders and a narrow waist. Xie Fei had seen this with his own eyes.

But when you really measure it, you will realize that the proportions of this man's upper body are really good, forming a perfect inverted triangle, his latissimus dorsi is tight but not rough, and his muscle lines are smooth and well-defined.

The muscles of the slender waist are particularly obvious. If you touch it accidentally, it feels like the muscles are slightly jumping under your palm, and the scorching temperature almost burns you.

Xie Fei silently measured Yuan San's whole body, sighing in his heart while noting down the specific measurements. At the same time, he felt that this man was truly gifted.

I haven’t seen him exercise, so why are his muscles so attractive?
If she hadn't been married as a concubine, Xie Fei would have touched her a few times, but this would not be good for Yuan San and his future wife.

Xie Fei felt very sorry for him, so she covered Yuan San with the quilt again and went back to the house carefully. As soon as she left, Yuan San opened his eyes in the dark night.

Xie Fei didn't know how tightly he clenched his fists, and beads of sweat were almost dripping from his forehead.

Although, in name only, whether Xie Fei touched him or he stayed by Xie Fei's side, it was not immoral.

Pulling the quilt to cover the key parts, Yuan San silently chanted the Heart Clearing Mantra, forcing himself not to think about the soft touch of Xie Fei just now.

In the early morning of a farm in the suburbs, the sky is hazy with mist and dense water vapor.

Xie Fei got up early on purpose, hoping to go to the town to find a tailor to make clothes, but it started to rain lightly near dawn.

There is no choice but to wait a few more days.

Mother Liu also left the village early in the morning and went to Pei Mansion.

Xiao Shirong met him at noon, drank some tea behind a screen, and asked questions slowly.

"Is she still obedient?"

Mother Liu said respectfully, "Very well behaved."

Mother Tang said, "After receiving the monthly allowance, she didn't ask to go out to the streets?"

Mother Liu replied, "Yes, she did. She gave two coins to the manor keeper and left secretly. I told someone to follow her. I saw her buying some rouge and powder, listening to some music, drinking a cup of tea in the afternoon, buying two sets of clothes at the clothing store, and then going back."

Xiao Shirong sneered, "You still have that petty and unpresentable air."

Madam Liu continued, "Yes, maybe he has run out of money these days, so he rarely goes out. Madam, what do you think?"

Xiao Shirong drank her tea leisurely and said, "Since she wants to go out, let her go. If she encounters blind robbers and hooligans one day, it will not be the Pei Mansion's business."

After a moment of silence, Xiao Shirong asked again whether Xie Fei had any contact with the Xie family.

Mother Liu still said the same thing: no.

This is true.

Xiao Shirong then understood that Xie Fei was indeed a little concubine's daughter with no sense of existence in the Xie family.

The Xie family will not offend the Pei family and the Fanyang Xiao family for her life or death.

After asking the questions, Mother Tang personally saw Mother Liu off.

"You should always keep an eye on what Xiao Niang Xie is doing. If there are any suspicious people around her, remember to report it at any time."

Mother Tang took out a silver ingot from her sleeve and gave it to Mother Liu in a condescending manner.

"I believe you have a clear vision and can see clearly who is in charge of the Pei Mansion. As long as you take good care of Miss Xie, the mistress will not be short of benefits from you in the future."

Mother Liu took the silver ingot and thanked her profusely.

Braving the autumn rain, Mother Liu rode a ox cart back to the village.

Chen Dafa was now awake and able to sit up and eat a few mouthfuls of porridge.

Xie Fei gave him anti-infection medicine again and gave him another blood transfusion, which made his complexion improve a lot.

When Mother Liu came back, she saw Chen Dafa talking to Shui Huaiyu. He tried his best to make his pregnant wife smile, and it was obvious that she had passed the dangerous period.

Mother Liu took Xie Fei aside and said, "The Pei family means that you will not be stopped from going out in the future."

Xie Fei was surprised, "Oh, are you planning to kill me by some trick while I'm out on my own initiative?"

Seeing that she was still able to laugh, Mama Liu said helplessly, "As a rich and powerful family, they naturally have many tricks. For safety reasons, you should stay away from the village less often."

Xie Fei felt that if Xiao Shirong really wanted to take action, the manor would not be very safe.
