Chapter 149 My Wife Makes Me Dinner
Chapter 149 My Wife Makes Me Dinner
The newlyweds, deeply in love, finally reunited after a long period of suppression and separation, like streams flowing together.
They didn't eat lunch and fell into a deep sleep after exhausting themselves.
When the two opened their eyes, it was already evening, and they began to talk, their heads close together.
“Yu Xuan, I didn’t mean to lie to you. I did have amnesia before, and it was intermittent,” Qiu Ziyue said.
“My wife, tell me about it,” Qi Yuxuan said.
"While healing at the Demon Spring Palace, I always felt something was off. I was especially careful around Leng Feng, but I had lost all my martial arts skills and was no match for him at all, so I could only endure it," Qiu Ziyue recounted, as if telling a long story.
“I realized that I was becoming more and more dependent, so I kept adding warm water to the spring to dilute the poison. Every time he fed me the medicine, I would put it in my mouth in front of him, and then spit it out after he left, so the poisoning wasn’t very severe,” Qiu Ziyue said.
"And then?" Qi Yuxuan asked.
“I’ve lost my martial arts skills, and my memory is slowly fading, but it’s intermittent. When you first rescued me, I was indeed in a state of amnesia. These past two days, Leng Feng hasn’t let me soak in the hot springs, and my memory has slowly returned, but I still have a headache. I’m afraid I can’t be cured,” Qiu Ziyue said.
“Don’t be afraid, my wife. Didn’t we already come up with a cure?” Qi Yuxuan said.
“You mean, bathing and consummating the marriage,” Qiu Ziyue said.
"Yes, yes, we've already consummated our marriage, so things will be easier from here on out."
After Qi Yuxuan finished speaking, he leaned closer and tried to consummate the marriage with Qiu Ziyue.
"What are you doing, Qi Yuxuan?" Qiu Ziyue said.
“You’ve not made up for it enough for me yet,” Qi Yuxuan said, turning over to seek compensation from Qiu Ziyue.
The couple were newly married and the Qi family mansion remained unusually quiet, not wanting to disturb them.
After the newlyweds had finished their sweet moments, Qi Yuxuan said, "Wife, I'm hungry. I want to eat steamed buns. You said you'd treat me."
“It’s so late, go to sleep. How about this, you have no idea how delicious my cooking is. When I return to the Valley of Passion, I’ll cook for you and your masters, okay?” Qiu Ziyue said.
"No, I'm hungry now. I'll go to the kitchen with you. I don't want to eat leftovers. I want to eat what you make for me. Look, you've made me lose weight over the past six months. You have to make it up to me," Qi Yuxuan said.
"Okay, you clingy thing," Qiu Ziyue and Qi Yuxuan both got up and put on their clothes.
Both of them carried a lamp and walked into the kitchen with smiles on their faces.
The moon rises above the treetops, and the night is warm and inviting.
Qiu Ziyue went into the kitchen to prepare dinner for Qi Yuxuan.
She was pleasantly surprised to find that the kitchen was filled with all kinds of ingredients—fresh meat and all kinds of vegetables.
Qiu Ziyue's face was beaming with satisfaction.
Qiu Ziyue tied on her apron and began preparing dinner.
She poured the flour into a bowl, slowly added warm water, and gently kneaded the dough with both hands.
The dough gradually became smooth and elastic in her hands, as if it had come to life.
At the same time, Qi Yuxuan carried a red lantern beside him, its soft light illuminating the entire room.
"Twilight Sparkle, can you really cook?"
Qi Yuxuan asked softly, his tone slightly teasing.
Qiu Ziyue looked up, a smile appearing on her lips: "Of course I can. Although I'm not a master chef, I can still cook home-style dishes without any problem."
Qi Yuxuan smiled and nodded, his eyes full of appreciation: "Then I'll wait to enjoy it."
“No, you have to be my assistant,” Qiu Ziyue said.
"Alright, I'll listen to your instructions, my lady," Qi Yuxuan said, hanging up the lantern and then helping Qiu Ziyue wash the meat and pick the vegetables.
As Qiu Ziyue busied herself, an enticing aroma gradually filled the kitchen.
She carefully prepared several home-style dishes: braised pork ribs, stir-fried seasonal vegetables, and her specialty dumplings.
When the last dish was served, Qi Yuxuan couldn't help but exclaim, "Wow, this looks so sumptuous!"
The two sat at the small table in the kitchen and began to enjoy their delicious dinner.
Qiu Ziyue picked up a piece of pork rib and handed it to Qi Yuxuan: "Here, have a taste."
Qi Yuxuan took a bite and a satisfied smile appeared on his face: "Delicious! Your cooking skills are really good."
Qiu Ziyue smiled happily: "I'm glad I can make you happy."
They were laughing and chatting non-stop.
In this cozy little world, time seems to slow down.
Meanwhile, Qi Jiangfeng and his wife were sitting in their room, secretly observing and sensing everything.
The elderly couple beamed with happiness, basking in the sweetness and harmony of the newlyweds.
"What do you think of Ziyue?" Qi Jiangfeng asked his wife softly.
The lady nodded, her eyes filled with satisfaction:
"What a wonderful daughter-in-law! Not only is she beautiful, but she's also incredibly kind-hearted. Look how good she is to Yuxuan."
Qi Jiangfeng nodded with a smile: "Yes, it's truly our blessing that Yuxuan has found such a wife."
The two smiled at each other, their hearts filled with wonderful expectations for the future.
Night gradually fell, turning as dark as ink, and the stars outside the window twinkled faintly.
The lanterns in the kitchen were still bright, illuminating the figures of Qiu Ziyue and Qi Yuxuan.
At this moment, they seemed to be in a world that belonged only to them, filled with endless warmth and sweetness.
“Ziyue,” Qi Yuxuan suddenly spoke up, “thank you for making such a delicious dinner for me.”
Qiu Ziyue smiled slightly: "Qi, you just slept with me and you're already acting like a stranger to me. You're so infuriating."
"Wife, what are you saying? Oh, I forgot to call you wife just now. Don't be angry, okay? It's all my fault," Qi Yuxuan said gently, holding Qiu Ziyue's small waist.
"Cricket, chirp chirp chirp,"
Suddenly, a slight sound came from the corner of the kitchen.
Qiu Ziyue looked sharply in the direction of the sound and saw a rat dart out from the corner.
It quickly crosses the ground.
This scene terrified her so much that she immediately screamed, "Oh my god!"
Qiu Ziyue was so frightened that she immediately burrowed into Qi Yuxuan's arms.
Qi Yuxuan spoke quickly, picked up a chopstick and stabbed at the mouse.
The chopsticks pierced the mouse, pinning it to the ground, where it remained motionless.
Qiu Ziyue hugged Qi Yuxuan's neck tightly, tears streaming down her face.
Qi Yuxuan quickly hugged her and gently comforted her, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid."
Qi Yuxuan gently patted Qiu Ziyue's back and said with a smile:
"It's ridiculous that the female general who even the devil Li Maozhen was afraid of was so afraid of mice."
After hearing this, Qiu Ziyue pushed him away angrily and wiped away her tears:
"You're still being cheeky! You don't know I've been terrified of mice since I was little. I get panicked just looking at them."
Seeing this, Qi Yuxuan quickly dropped his joking tone and said seriously:
"I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry. It's all my fault for not noticing the mice in the house. I'll ask Uncle Lin to buy some medicine to get rid of them tomorrow, okay?"
Qiu Ziyue nodded, but was still somewhat worried: "Please be careful and make sure no one takes those medicines."
Qi Yuxuan smiled and assured him, "Don't worry, I'll have Uncle Lin handle it. There won't be any problems."
Despite the minor incident, the warm atmosphere in the kitchen remained unaffected.
