If I send you to join the army and marry a woman, will you conquer the Empress?

Three poles in the sun.

Qin Feng packed a sumptuous meal and wine from a famous restaurant in the capital and returned home.

As soon as I arrived at my doorstep, the door opened from the inside.

Sister-in-law Bai Wanqing and Shangguan Wan were standing prettily at the door, their faces showing some anxiety.

"My lord, you're back!"

"Xiao Feng, I heard from Li Hu that you drank too much last night and stayed at his house?" Bai Wanqing asked softly.

"Um."

Qin Feng nodded.

"You can't drink so much alcohol anymore, it's bad for your health."

Bai Wanqing breathed a sigh of relief, then scolded playfully.

"Okay, sister-in-law."

Qin Feng smiled and agreed, then waved towards the door.

"Guys, let's bring everything in!"

The shop assistants following behind immediately brought in bags and packages of gifts.

Hairpins, fabrics, rouge and face powder... a dazzling array of items.

"This...this is..."

Bai Wanqing and Shangguan Wan were both stunned.

Qin Feng picked up the redeemed jade bracelet, gently took Bai Wanqing's hand, and personally put it on her wrist.

"Sister-in-law, the item has been returned to its rightful owner."

Bai Wanqing stroked the bracelet on her wrist, her eyes instantly reddening.

She looked up at Qin Feng, her voice trembling slightly, "Xiao Feng, where...where did you get so much money?"

"Husband, have you struck it rich?"

Shangguan Wan was also pleasantly surprised and curiously gathered around.

I guess so.

Qin Feng smiled smugly and explained, "Didn't I sell a tiger a few days ago? I got three hundred taels. Then the eldest daughter of the Yun family came to annul the engagement and gave me another thousand taels as compensation. Now, I'm at least a rich man!"

"Wow! You've made so much money, husband, you're amazing!"

Shangguan Wan, standing to the side, immediately cheered, her beautiful eyes filled with admiration.

Qin Feng was flattered by her praise and was preparing to bask in his sister-in-law's admiring gaze.

Unexpectedly, Bai Wanqing frowned slightly, seemingly not as happy as expected.

She glanced at the excited Shangguan Wan beside her and said, "Wan'er, why don't you go and keep Xiaoyu company? I have something I want to say to Xiaofeng alone."

Although Shangguan Wan was somewhat puzzled, she obediently nodded and turned to go to the backyard.

Inside the room, only Qin Feng and Bai Wanqing remained.

"Sister-in-law, why are you unhappy? Are you upset that I'm wasting money?"

Qin Feng was a little puzzled, so he quickly took out a thick wad of silver notes from his pocket and stuffed them into her hand.

"Don't worry, sister-in-law, I'll earn even more in the future! You're in charge of managing all this money!"

However, Bai Wanqing did not accept it; instead, she pushed the silver note back.

"Xiao Feng, you are now the pillar of this family, and you should be in charge of managing the finances."

"I'm so happy for you, having suddenly received so much money. But there's a saying: 'A tall tree catches the wind, and great wealth attracts thieves!'"

"Today you've been redeeming pawned goods, making a huge purchase, and even had shop assistants deliver things to your home. Now everyone in the neighborhood knows you've suddenly struck it rich!"

"Our Qin family is not what it used to be. Especially in times like these, we must keep a low profile and absolutely avoid any ostentation!"

Bai Wanqing's words were like a bucket of cold water, instantly sobering Qin Feng up.

Yes!

These past two days have been incredibly smooth sailing for me—I've gained talent, beautiful women, and money—and I've definitely gotten a little carried away!

They were only thinking about the beautiful scenery, but forgot about the potential dangers!

"Sister-in-law, you're right to reprimand me." Qin Feng nodded.

"besides……"

Bai Wanqing paused, glanced towards the backyard, and lowered her voice: "We haven't known the Shangguan sisters for long; you can only know their faces, not their hearts. What if they have bad intentions and run away with the money? Where will we find them?"

Upon hearing this, Qin Feng felt a chill run down his spine.

My sister-in-law has really thought things through!

Defenses can not do without!

"Sister-in-law, I understand!"

Qin Feng nodded solemnly: "I was too complacent. Thank you for reminding me! From now on, I will definitely think twice before acting and will never be so reckless again!"

Seeing his sincere expression, Bai Wanqing's expression softened.

She picked up a grain of rice from the table, placed it in her palm, and said, "Xiao Feng, remember this lesson—"

"With rice in hand, there's no shortage of chickens. As long as the rice is plentiful, the chickens won't scatter!"

……

Hearing this, Qin Feng pondered it repeatedly and suddenly realized what was going on!

My sister-in-law's words were so insightful!

This is remarkably similar to some theories from my previous life!

The so-called "rice" refers to the resources and capital in the hands of men.

Money is for women to see, not for women to spend!

As long as you firmly hold onto your resources, you'll never have to worry about not having women.

Conversely, if you give all the "rice" in your hands to the "chicken," then the initiative will fall into the hands of others.

"Sister-in-law, thank you for your guidance!"

At this moment, Qin Feng looked at his gentle and virtuous sister-in-law and felt not only gratitude but also a great deal of respect.

She is not just a beautiful vase, but also a woman with great wisdom!

He suddenly felt that the system's rating of Bai Wanqing as "one in a million" was still too low.

This insight and perspective alone far surpass those of ordinary people!

With her support, how can we not accomplish great things?

"Sister-in-law, where in the capital can we find a place to spar and compete?" Qin Feng suddenly asked.

He knew he would soon be on the battlefield, and time was of the essence.

We must maximize the power of the god-level talent [Photographic Memory] in the shortest possible time!

The best way is to observe or even participate in real-world combat!

"Xiao Feng, why are you suddenly asking this?" Bai Wanqing asked back.

"I'm about to go to the battlefield, and I want to improve my strength as soon as possible!" Qin Feng replied.

"There's a martial arts arena in the south of the city where people hold matches all year round, but swords and fists are ruthless and merciless; it's too dangerous. You'd better not go and join the fun..."

Bai Wanqing looked smug.

"Don't worry, sister-in-law!"

Qin Feng interrupted her abruptly, lowering his voice and saying with a wicked grin, "Don't you know how capable I am?"

boom!

Bai Wanqing's pretty face instantly turned as red as a ripe apple, and even her ears burned.

That little rascal!

They're getting bolder and bolder, daring to make liberties with me to my face?

She raised her delicate hand in embarrassment, as if to hit him.

"You... what nonsense are you talking about!"

Qin Feng laughed heartily, grabbed her soft wrist, and gently kissed it.

"Sister-in-law, I'm sorry, okay? I'll come to your room tonight to apologize, remember to leave the door open for me!"

After saying that, he turned around and strode away without waiting for Bai Wanqing's reaction.

Bai Wanqing was left alone, standing there, her heart pounding, feeling both ashamed and angry, yet also secretly looking forward to the evening.
