“You can talk about it once you’ve actually opened it.” Lu Yang agreed. After they finished eating, he collected the […]
The Lu family was poor in their early years and had to give away one of their children.

But from that day on, no one dared.
Xie Yan’s husband knew how to throw a punch!
Meanwhile, the Li family, which everyone expected to be full of constant bickering and fights, now enjoyed warm beds and hot meals every day.
Curious, some sneaked a peek and found Li Feng gently coaxing his husband, “It’s my fault, don’t cry…”
“You can talk about it once you’ve actually opened it.” Lu Yang agreed. After they finished eating, he collected the […]
That whole conversation had rubbed Li Feng the wrong way. This scholar really needed to learn how to talk properly.

Steamed buns could serve as a staple food, and they kept relatively well. Whatever the host family couldn’t finish, they
