His Peasant Wife : Yao Ling

Yao Ling was taken aback with the question. She was too engrossed in thinking about Xiao Yu and forgot that one bit of important information.

"To answer Young Master, it’s Liu Li," Xiu answered confidently. "This servant was able to see her face clearly.

Yao Ying furrowed his eyebrows. He never cared about the inner courtyard matter, of course, he didn’t know who that Liu Li was. "Who is this Liu Li?"

"Concubine Wan’s personal maid," Yao Ling helpfully supplied him with the information. "Is this really because of Concubine Wan?" Yao Ling somehow didn’t believe that Concubine Wan was able to think and plan something complicated like this. Everyone knew how conceited and simple-minded Concubine Wan was, but perhaps Liu Li was the mastermind – just like the previous battle of words incident.

"This servant also wants to discuss this matter with Young Master and Young Mistress."

"Oh? Tell me, then," Yao Ying felt that Xiu already had something planned on his mind already.

"Tomorrow, this servant wants to ask permission to tail Liu Li and find out the whereabouts of Xiao Yu’s younger brother," Xiu humbly asked for his masters’ permission.

"Good! You do that and I’ll find a way to make your disappearance not too obvious," Yao Ying conceded to Xiu’s request.

Something flashed in Yao Ling’s mind and she grinned inwardly. These two servants... since when that their relationship was this good? It seemed like something was blossoming between the two of them. It would be cute if both of them could end up together.

"Do you know how to start?" Yao Ying asked regarding Liu Li’s matter.

"This servant knows how. Please don’t worry! Just leave it to this servant, Young Master." Xiu humbly said. Following a person was an easy feat for a hidden guard, especially following a woman without martial art skills.

"Be careful!" Yao Ying reminded him.

"This servant will, Young Master."

After saying that, Xiu hesitantly said to Yao Ling, "Young Mistress, can you talk to Xiao Yu about it tomorrow? So... she won’t be worried and sad all the time?"

Yao Ling laughed at Xiu’s words. "Of course! She proves her loyalty and I will treasure those who loyal to me, including you. Don’t worry! I will take care of Xiao Yu’s matter. You can rest assured and do your job carefully tomorrow!"

Xiu sighed in relief after listening to Yao Ling’s assurance. However, he still felt something was a bit wrong. Why was he so concerned about Xiao Yu? He was in confusion but deduced that it was because they served the same masters and in a word, comrades. Ah yes... Comrades should share their burden together.

Yao Ling saw the sparkle in Xiu’s eyes. It seemed like he realized something, but she knew it wasn’t about love. This couple... it seemed like they had a long way to go. She shook her head in amusement. It seemed that she would have a great spectacle between these two every day.

"Go! Rest for now. You will have a busy day tomorrow," Yao Ling ordered Xiu.

"Yes, Young Mistress. This servant will go back first," After saying that, Xiu bowed and left the room. He felt a heavy burden was lifted from his body, feeling free and lighter. He probably could sleep soundly.

Yao Ling turned and saw the contemplation in Yao Ying’s expression. "Come, sit down. I’ll help you comb your hair and change into more comfortable clothes."

Yao Ling opened the knot on Yao Ying’s hair and his black long hair cascaded down his back. She slowly combed his hair and felt that it was an intimate gesture. Yao Ling could smell the fresh and mint scent emanated from Yao Ying’s body. She enjoyed the scent and felt safe basking in it. This was her beloved husband’s smell.

"What are you thinking about?" Yao Ling asked softly.

"The one behind Liu Li. I feel that something isn’t right and this matter isn’t as simple as it looks like. It’s possible that Liu Li is a double spy, so we can’t condemn Concubine Wan right away," Yao Ying explained.

"I understand your point. We have to investigate it first. If what you said really true, then the real mastermind is dangerous. He or she hides really deep and he or she was probably already planning this plan ahead of time."

Yao Ling also thought that this muddle water was pretty dangerous and it was really ridiculous. Only a few days staying in this household and they already had to be cautious from hidden enemies. Spies, enemies, annoying concubines were actually becoming a part of their daily life. Yao Ling previously wouldn’t even dream that there would be a day she was in the middle of a power struggle. Who knew that she would suddenly become the stepchild of ’Wang Fu’?

Yao Ling went to their closet and chose a comfortable inner garment for Yao Ying to sleep in. She helped him change. She opened his robe and blushed after seeing his naked chest up close. A few days of training already made the previous soft body into a hard one. She could feel his masculinity level was leveling up way too fast.

’Oh man! Her husband becomes much more charming!’ She really enjoyed looking at Yao Ying’s body.

’Yao Ling! Grip your mind! Stop being a pervert and drool over your naked husband!’ She reprimanded herself, but at the same time, she also tried to convince herself. She was just admiring her own husband, so she actually didn’t do anything wrong. If she wasn’t the one who saw and enjoy his body, then who else? Other women? Pei! She wouldn’t let any of them go near Yao Ying.

With this in her mind, she looked at the distracted Yao Ying – who thought seriously about the previous matter – and took her chance to ogle her own husband leisurely.

Yao Ling couldn’t resist poking his chest and abs for a tiny... little bit. Yao Ling tried to make it inconspicuous enough and thought to herself, ’Oh... it’s getting harder. Wow!’ She admitted that she liked it hard.

Yao Ling felt satisfied and mentally agreed to let Yao Ying continue training at General Lin’s house. She also got the benefit of having a healthy husband with a yummy body. She poked him when trying to help him put on his clothes. Yao Ling didn’t help him put on his pants. She only gave him the new and clean pants that she had just taken and turned around to let him change by himself. She wasn’t brave enough to look at his member without being embarrassed.

"Aren’t you going to look at me more?" Yao Ying teased her with twinkling eyes.

"No!" Yao Ling could feel the tip of her ears getting hotter. She knew that she was probably blushing and her face was as red as tomatoes.

"Ah... so only taking advantage of my upper body is enough?" Yao Ying asked evilly.

"Wha... what do you mean?" Yao Ling stuttered in embarrassment. ’Did he know I was poking him on purpose?’ Yao Ling thought to herself. ’No way! I was careful enough by poking him lightly. Very... lightly.’

Yao Ying looked at her exasperatedly. "Wife... Although my mind was distracted, I was able to feel your light touch and smell your arousal!"

"What...?! What arousal? I am not aroused!" Yao Ling yelled at her husband.

Yao Ling whose back was facing Yao Ying turned around in a flash and closed his mouth with both of her hands in embarrassment. She tried to make him stop talking such an embarrassing matter openly. She’s still a girl! Of course, this kind of topic was a taboo for her. Thinking about it and talking openly about it were two different matters!

She continued to rant, "You were just imagining things."
