Courtyard House: Purchasing Agents' Comeback from the Great Famine

At the dinner table, Lou Xiao'e couldn't help but swallow hard when she saw Wang Feng wolfing down his food.

Qin Jingru was shocked by Wang Feng's appetite on her very first day of marriage, but now she's used to it.

"Little sister Xiao'e, Brother Wang Feng has been practicing martial arts with his father since he was a child, so he's quite healthy and eats a lot," Qin Jingru explained with a smile.

After saying that, Qin Jingru rolled her eyes at Wang Feng and whispered:

"Brother Wang Feng, this is Xiao'e's first day visiting. Can't you restrain yourself a little? Don't scare her."

Wang Feng swallowed a piece of braised pork and smiled indifferently at the two women:

"We're all family, what's there to hold back?"

"Son, you drank the nourishing soup yesterday, you should have felt the changes in your body, right?"

Lou Xiao'e nodded: "I feel more energetic than before, my skin is better, and I'm much stronger."

At this point, Lou Xiao'e said shyly, "And... I seem to be able to eat even more than before."

"Hahaha!"

"Giggle giggle!"

Wang Feng and Qin Jingru both burst into laughter upon hearing Lou Xiao'e's words.

"Sister Xiao'e, this Ten-Ingredient Tonic Soup is the most important secret of our Wang family. You must not tell anyone, understand? Since Brother Wang Feng let you drink the Ten-Ingredient Tonic Soup, it means he trusts you."

Lou Xiao'e nodded emphatically: "Yes, Brother Feng, Sister Jingru, don't worry, even if someone puts a knife to my throat, I will not reveal the secret to outsiders."

"Little sister Xiao'e, from now on I'll call you Goose, it'll be easier to say that way."

"Um."

"Son, this Ten-Ingredient Tonic Soup has amazing effects. After drinking it, you will feel a great increase in strength. I've already drunk four jin of it. Don't let my weak appearance fool you. I can easily lift four hundred jin of things now. If I were to fight, I could easily beat ten burly men."

As she spoke, Qin Jingru's eyes were filled with pride. No one could have imagined that she would one day become a strongwoman.

"Sister Jingru, you're amazing."

Lou Xiao'e gave Qin Jingru a thumbs up again, her eyes sparkling with admiration; she had become Qin Jingru's biggest fan.

Qin Jingru pressed her hand down and proudly raised her snow-white neck.

"Son, this is nothing. Brother Wang Feng is the real deal. Let me tell you, Brother Wang Feng drank ten catties of the Ten-Ingredient Tonic Soup. If this were ancient times, if Brother Wang Feng took a knife to kill people, it would take hundreds of people to get close to him."

Upon hearing Qin Jingru's words, Wang Feng slapped his forehead. Qin Jingru's habit of boasting had returned. However, this simpleton was quite easy to fool. With just a few words, he was completely swayed by Qin Jingru, his eyes sparkling with admiration.

"Son, this Ten-Ingredient Tonic Soup is great, but it will increase your appetite. Brother Wang Feng can now eat eight bowls of rice at every meal, and your sister can eat four large bowls at every meal."

Seemingly worried about frightening Lou Xiao'e, Qin Jingru added:

"But don't worry about Brother Wang Feng not being able to support you. Let me tell you, Brother Wang Feng is a very good hunter. Wild boars are no match for him. As long as Brother Wang Feng goes into the mountains, he can catch big wild boars. He can easily support the two of us."

Lou Xiao'e looked at Wang Feng and Qin Jingru with admiration in her eyes. She never expected that the Wang family was such a magical family, and that she would be so fortunate to become a member of the Wang family.

In her opinion, the reason why Wang Feng and Sister Jingru are so powerful is because of the Ten-Ingredient Tonic Soup, which is the foundation of the Wang family.

Under Lou Xiao'e's adoring gaze, the three of them finally finished their meal. Qin Jingru kept praising Lou Xiao'e, and even ate two fewer bowls of rice.

The meal took more than an hour, and it was already 7 p.m. when we finished.

Qin Jingru and Lou Xiao'e cleared away the dishes together and washed them. Qin Jingru took Lou Xiao'e's hand and said:

"Son, I won't be staying here tonight. I've already boiled the hot water. You'll help Brother Wang Feng take a bath later. You have to take good care of Brother Wang Feng, understand? I'll come over early tomorrow morning to make breakfast for you."

Upon hearing this, Lou Xiao'e blushed, but still nodded in agreement.

"Okay, Sister Jingru, I understand."

Lou Xiao'e now regards the Wang family as a mysterious, hidden family. Even if Sister Jingru is the empress, she, as a concubine, naturally has to listen to the empress.

When Wang Feng saw Qin Jingru about to leave, he quickly said, "Jingru, don't go. The bed is so big, the three of us can sleep comfortably."

Qin Jingru shook her head and obediently replied, "Brother Wang Feng, tonight is your wedding night with your son, so I won't stay with you. You should spend time with your son instead. We'll keep you company tomorrow."

"Thank you, Sister Jingru."

Lou Xiao'e looked at Qin Jingru with some emotion, tears welling up in her eyes. Sister Jingru was so good to her, even considering these details.

Seeing this, Wang Feng temporarily abandoned his idea of ​​sleeping together and had no choice but to nod in agreement.

"Okay then."

After Qin Jingru left courtyard number 28, Lou Xiao'e closed the door, took Wang Feng's hand, and said:

"Brother Feng, the shower room is over there. Let me help you take a shower first."

"Okay, come with me."

Wang Feng led Lou Xiao'e to a side room, which he used as a temporary bathing room.

He also temporarily took the bathtub from courtyard number 95. There was no other way; it was too late to have the craftsman order a custom bathtub today, so he could only order it tomorrow. But on their wedding night, they had to be thoroughly cleaned before kissing, hugging, and lifting each other up high.

Soon, Lou Xiao'e prepared hot water, tested the temperature, and blushed as she said to Wang Feng:

"Brother Feng, the hot water is ready. Go take a shower, Brother Feng... Sister Jingru asked me to help you take a shower, but I don't know how. Can you teach me?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Feng took off his clothes, entered the bathtub, and gave Lou Xiao'e a wicked smile:

"Son, come in too. You can give me a back rub later."

"Um."

Lou Xiao'e's face was as red as a red apple, even her ears were bright red, and her face felt like it was on fire, burning hot.

However, she was very obedient and followed instructions. She took off her clothes and got into the bathtub.

Seeing Lou Xiao'e's skin, which was as white as mutton fat, and her devilish figure, Wang Feng felt his throat go dry and couldn't help but swallow.

It was truly unexpected that Qin Jingru was so skilled at training women. Just a few words of boasting were enough to make Lou Xiao'e, a pampered young lady who never lifted a finger, become so obedient and docile. This was definitely a pleasant surprise for Wang Feng!

In the bathtub, Wang Feng and Lou Xiao'e helped each other scrub their backs, but Wang Feng mainly helped her scrub her front, because the front of her breasts was higher and easier to get dirty.
