Chapter 19: The Scent of Flowers, Jing Ni Took the Initiative to Lower Her Head
Jing Ni blushed with embarrassment.
Feeling like she almost didn’t recognize herself!
“Okay, husband, don’t press anymore~”
After a moment, Jing Ni said with a tender tone.
Her husband is just an ordinary person, making her feel sorry for him to labor like this in her heart.
And besides, which man helps a woman massage her legs?
Li Mo smiled, “It’s alright, I’m not tired.”
Jing Ni’s heart couldn’t help but tremble at his words.
Holding his hand softly, she said, “No, that won’t do. You are a man, and in the future when our days are better, you will have to marry three wives and four concubines.”
“When that time comes and there are sisters at home, what will they think of their husband?”
“Moreover, if you act this way with me, won’t you act the same with them too?”
A man should stand tall and firm.
There are differences between Li Mo’s thoughts and Jing Ni’s.
Modern education emphasizes gender equality.
But obviously, this era does not.
Jing Ni is a cold and indifferent assassin, but some of her thoughts are influenced by the era as a whole.
So in her view, it is not right for her husband help her massage, when she should be helping him instead.
“I, a blind man, being able to marry a wife is already a great blessing. How can I dare to ask for three wives and four concubines!”
Li Mo held her small hand back, lightly rubbing the calluses in her palm with his fingertips.
A faint callus on her palm seemed like one from farming, from years of holding a hoe.
It’s just strange, the lady’s skin is smooth and delicate, not at all like someone who does farm work.
If she did farm work often, her skin should be rougher.
After listening to his words, Jing Ni sat up abruptly.
With a serious expression, she said, “What’s wrong with being blind? You, my husband, are a capable man. If you become famous in the future and still don’t have three wives and four concubines, won’t that be a cause for ridicule?”
“You may not be able to see, but I can.”
“In the future, I will help my husband find partners, so you don’t need to worry about it.”
Li Mo’s behavior today truly surprised Jing Ni.
She had sharp eyes, how could she not see the unusualness in Li Mo.
It’s just that he’s not pursuing those things right now.
In this era, for those with power and status, women are symbols of status.
The less capable a person is, the more they cling to a wife and endure hardship.
Li Mo was deeply moved!
Wives helping to find concubines?
What a good tradition, how did it get lost in later generations?
Speaking of living a life together, Li Mo remembered something.
He lifted the blanket off the bed, ran to the corner wardrobe, and rummaged around for a while.
“What are you looking for, husband?”
Jing Ni sat on the bed, holding the blanket to her chest, curiously watching him.
Without answering, Li Mo pulled out a jar wrapped in cloth from inside and brought it to the bed.
Unwrapping the cloth, he handed the jar to Jing Ni.
“Take this, from now on, let the lady of the house handle our money.” (Li Mo)
“This… really give it to me?” (Jing Ni)
Jing Ni held the jar, unsure of what to do.
She knew this was all of Li Mo’s belongings, and he was really entrusting everything to her?
“Otherwise? The husband works outside, the wife manages the money at home, and our life will get better and better!”
Li Mo didn’t worry at all that Jing Ni would run away with the money.
After all, with her looks, if she loved money, she could easily find a nobleman who would offer her riches at a snap of a finger. How could she possibly stay with him when she was still a young girl!
A bright smile blossomed on Jing Ni’s face, a sweet sense of happiness rising from her heart.
Sensing Jing Ni’s beauty, a flame ignited in Li Mo’s lower abdomen.
Jing Ni watched as he slowly raised his head.
Awkwardly touching his nose, Li Mo slid into the bed and lay on his side saying, “Let’s sleep, let’s sleep.”
The blankets in the house should be changed, need to control it!
Otherwise, both of them might get rheumatism after tonight.
Jing Ni placed the money jar to the side, hesitated for a moment, then bit her lip and nudged him.
“You… sleep well.”
Li Mo moved aside, giving Jing Ni more space.
Jing Ni was both angry and amused, “Not like this.”
Li Mo turned over, “Like this?”
Baffled, why does the lady feel strange.
Jing Ni didn’t say anything more, she just got into bed all in one go.
