My Wife is Unbeatable in the Whole World, Touch Me If You Dare!-Chapter 231 - 124 Eastern Palace Curse_4
She was the shopkeeper of the Jade Sound Pavilion, which saw a good deal of silver flow into its accounts every day, lacking nothing, so it was better to gift something meaningful and practical.
The cultivation technique he had personally experienced was remarkably effective and very suitable for her.
If she practiced for a few months, even if she couldn’t fight back when challenged, she could at least evade.
After Li Nuo left, Nightingale looked at Phoenix in surprise, "Isn’t he quite concerned about you?"
"Is this concern? Who gifts a woman a health care skill and only one orange..." Phoenix peeled the orange, took a segment into her mouth, looked down at it in her hand, and added in surprise, "But, this orange is really sweet..."
Nightingale stretched out her hand, "Let me taste it..."
Phoenix slapped her hand away, "No, just drink your tea!"
Nightingale tried to grab it, but Phoenix pressed her down onto the table, leaning over her.
Li Nuo entered from outside and saw Phoenix pressing Nightingale beside her, paused, then pointing at the floral arrangement on the table, said, "Oh right, can I take this vase of flowers?"
Phoenix got up from Nightingale, "If you like it, you can take it."
Actually, it wasn’t Li Nuo who liked it, his wife did. Li Nuo picked up the vase, walked to the doorway, turned back, and said, "I’m really leaving now, you two continue..."
...
After lingering a bit at the Jade Sound Pavilion, when he returned to the Song Residence, lunchtime had already passed.
No worries though, every time Li Nuo came back late, his wife would save a portion of food for him.

Song Jiaren brought the warmed meal back to the room, and Li Nuo, taking out the last orange from his bosom, said, "Today’s oranges are all gone; wife, you eat this one. I’ll bring more for Mumu tomorrow."
After eating, Li Nuo remembered something and added, "By the way, wife, today while investigating the case, I had some minor help from Miss Phoenix. She also greatly assisted us before. I’m thinking of giving her a gift to show our gratitude. What do you think about gifting her the health care skill I practice?"
While Song Jiaren never asked much, she actually enjoyed listening to him talk about these things.
She handed half of the peeled orange to Li Nuo, asking softly, "Why give her the cultivation technique?"
Li Nuo explained, "Her body is too weak, she faints at the sight of blood. Today, at the crime scene, it was the Princess who had to carry her to the carriage. I think she needs to train her body properly..."
Song Jiaren said, "The skill you practice is only suited for men. I’ll find one that’s suitable for women for you."
Li Nuo smiled, "Alright."
Song Jiaren looked at the flowers on the table and asked, "Did Miss Phoenix give you those?"
Li Nuo said, "I asked her for them, if you like them, I’ll bring you more next time."
A vase of flowers cost but a few silver pieces, only requiring her to lift her hands.
Next time, he would just sneak a few more oranges from Li Anning for her, ask for a vase of flowers, and she wouldn’t refuse.
Song Jiaren admired the pleasing vase of flowers, "Miss Phoenix is truly talented."
Li Nuo shook his head, "What’s the use of talents, wife, you wouldn’t believe how faint-hearted she is. Today at the scene, she simply saw some dried blood and was so terrified that she went weak all over and couldn’t even walk..."
A moment later, Li Nuo was practicing archery in the courtyard.
Of course, practicing archery was just a process.
In the courtyard, Song Mumu sat by the stone table, resting her chin on one hand, watching Sister Jiaren personally teach Li Nuo archery, a contented smile appearing on her face.
They finally looked a bit like a married couple.
It was not in vain, her efforts...
