Forced to marry a disabled man in the countryside? I'll repay you tenfold!

Chapter 44 Zhou Yanshen: I can't sleep or eat at night, it's really awful.

Aside from the necessary plot points, most of the scenes involve her having sex with the male lead... My cousin truly lives up to her reputation as a writer of erotica; every scene is so captivating it makes your heart race.

Su Wanqing blushed, a rare occurrence for her. She grasped Zhou Yanshen's large hand in return. He stood there tall and imposing, exuding a powerful aura. And then there was his strong physique, with its bulging, muscular build...

"Sigh, when will I finally get to have Zhou Yanshen's mouth?"

……

dinner.

Su Wanqing used the cured meat that had been returned tenfold from her spatial storage to make a simple braised rice with cured meat and bamboo shoots.

The thinly sliced ​​cured pork belly has translucent fat and firm, savory lean meat. As the rice steams, the fat and juices fully permeate every grain of rice.

When it was served, each person's bowl contained seven or eight solid slices of cured meat, and the aroma was irresistible.

"Comrade Yanshen, you've worked the hardest today, eat more." Su Wanqing pushed the portion with more meat in front of him.

Today, Zhou Yanshen used a large bucket to carry water, two buckets at a time. He did it quickly and steadily without stopping, which was really tiring.

Zhou Yanshen had just taken a bath in the cold spring water, and his skin was still glistening with water droplets, which added to his ascetic air. He sat down with an air of authority and placed a few more slices of meat on her plate.

"You are the biggest contributor, you should eat more." He looked at her, wondering how his little wife could be so amazing? It seemed like she knew everything.

Zhou's mother grumbled from the side, "Why so much talk while eating! It's so greasy, and this food is so oily..." Despite her complaints, she honestly picked up a large piece of cured meat and rice with her chopsticks and stuffed it into her mouth, clearly starving.

She used to be a pampered young lady who couldn't eat at all if she didn't move around much. Now, after being sent to the countryside, she stands for several hours every day, distributes registration tools, and sometimes even argues with shameless old men. She's exhausted every day.

Zhou Yanshen looked at his mother and thought to himself: Mother used to really feel nauseous whenever she ate greasy food, but it seems that this problem has been cured without any medicine when she is with Comrade Wanqing.

It's clear how delicious his wife's cooking is. He's never full, but he's too embarrassed to say so... he just thinks that if his mother complains again, he'll just grab some to eat.

Perhaps it was because he was relaxed; perhaps it was because the acupuncture treatments over the past few days were taking effect; or perhaps it was for other reasons... Zhou Yanshen clearly felt different after tonight's acupuncture treatment.

Su Wanqing's fingers were still slightly cool as she moved and pressed the acupoints on his chest and abdomen before inserting silver needles. But the sensation was like sparks, igniting an indescribable heat wherever they touched.

His breathing became heavy and rapid uncontrollably, his muscles tensed like stone, and a primal force, long suppressed, surged through his limbs, clamoring for an outlet.

He felt uneasy all over, yet he was also drawn to the strange sensations brought by the touch.

Su Wanqing thoroughly enjoyed herself. When the acupuncture ended, she deliberately pressed lightly on his taut abdominal muscles. Only when she felt the muscles under her hand twitch did she secretly laugh and withdraw her hand.

Then, just like the previous two nights, she found a comfortable position in Zhou Yanshen's stiff, iron-like arms and fell soundly asleep.

Poor Zhou Yanshen, he spent another sleepless night, his eyes wide open until dawn, his restlessness unable to subside.

When Zhou's mother woke up the next day, the bruises under her eyes were even more pronounced. She weakly urged Zhou Yanshen, "Yanshen, when will that brick wall be finished? I can't sleep at night because of all those noises!" She really couldn't take it anymore; if things continued like this, she was afraid she would be the first to give up.

Zhou Yanshen's ears turned slightly red, and he replied in a deep voice, "Mom, we'll build it today."

He always keeps his word.

In the morning, as soon as the bricks arrived, he asked Liu Shuqing for a day off.

While everyone else in the village was busy fetching water and harvesting, he single-handedly mixed mud, laid bricks, and made door frames, his movements so swift and tireless. By the time Su Wan returned from the quarantine area in the afternoon, the house had been completely transformed.

The original open-plan brick house was divided in two by a sturdy brick wall. Entering through the first door, the right side was Zhou's mother's area, with a small kang (heated brick bed), while the left side had a dining table and chairs, serving as both a living room and dining room.

Further inside was a sturdy wooden door leading to their bedroom. Again, there was a kang (heated brick bed) on the right and a cabinet that Zhou Yanshen hadn't finished making on the left. This was originally the largest house in the educated youth settlement. Even partitioned, Zhou's mother's room was six or seven square meters, while their bedroom was about ten square meters—considered quite spacious and comfortable for that era.

"Comrade Yanshen! You are truly amazing!"

Su Wanqing excitedly circled the new cubicle, touching the solid brick walls and pulling on the sturdy wooden door, her eyes filled with admiration. "You finished everything in just one day! The soundproofing must be excellent!"

Zhou Yanshen's face remained expressionless, he only gave a faint "hmm," as if it were just a matter of calm due to a slightly dirty hem of his clothes. But in reality, the slight upturn of his lips and the fleeting smile in his eyes could not be concealed.

If Zhou Yanshen had a tail, it would probably have already turned into a whirlwind by now.

Su Wanqing was in a great mood and planned to cook something delicious for Zhou Yanshen for dinner.

As she was thinking, the Rubik's Cube space in her consciousness suddenly flickered violently! With a thought, she sank her consciousness into the space, where a line of golden words appeared in the center:

[Merit Power +100: Successfully contained a large-scale outbreak of intestinal disease, averting a famine and saving many lives.]

[Reward: 1 cubic meter of Silver Spirit Grid (Enhanced Spirit Spring Water)]

Su Wanqing was both surprised and delighted!

Unexpectedly, besides the space's inherent functions, healing the people and resolving crises could also earn "merit power" and extra rewards? This enhanced version of the spiritual spring water is far more effective than the ordinary spiritual spring water; she hadn't really used the reward from the last upgrade.

It seems that doing more good deeds in the future will never be a bad thing.

At dinner time, Su Wanqing watched the villagers gathered behind the house, busily drawing water...

Although the water pump borrowed by Master Wang was extremely efficient, the veterans and aunties still habitually came to the well to see that it was full of water before they felt at ease.

She picked up a piece of food and gave it to Zhou Yanshen.

"Comrade Yanshen, now that the well has produced water, although in a few days after we finish irrigating the crops, the number of people coming to fetch water won't be as high as it is now, everyone will still come to our backyard for drinking water. With so many people coming and going, it's not very convenient for us to cook outdoors."

Besides, it's alright in the summer, but in winter, it'll be freezing even after just a short time outside. I was thinking, could we fence off this piece of land with a wall and make a front yard and a back yard? We could grow some scallions, garlic, and vegetables in the front yard, and we could put a door in the back yard that leads directly to the well, which would be convenient. We could also build a small kitchen and a toilet.”
