The Comeback of the Charming Farmer's Wife-Chapter 2155 - 2157

"Alright, since my dear wife has graciously invited me to spend the night together, I won’t be polite."

"..." We’re just sleeping, can you not make it sound so suggestive?

Ye Zi’an went out to freshen up and came back in, "Tomorrow, talk with Lele, tell him not to stay up so late reading. He’s not going to school these days, he has plenty of time to read during the day. He’s just a kid, and he’s still not sleeping by now."

"Still not asleep?" Yang Chuxia said, giving him another irritated little shove, "He’s learning it all from you. You’re his father, you should set a good example. Can you really blame him?"

"That’s different, I’m an adult."

Ye Zi’an wrapped his arms tighter around her, snuggling his head against her face, "Wife, you really smell nice."

Yang Chuxia’s body stiffened.

"Loosen up a bit, you’re holding me so tight, how can we sleep? Let’s go to sleep, I’m exhausted." She finished, punctuating it with a yawn.

"Haha..." Ye Zi’an chuckled, "Wife, you’re nervous."

"Oh, please, I’m nervous? Which eye of yours saw me being nervous?"

"You are nervous," Ye Zi’an whispered into her ear, "You’re afraid I’ll do something bad."

Damn it! Would she be nervous about that?

"Xiao’an, as your wife, I’m afraid you’re too close, and I’m worried I won’t be able to control myself and end up overpowering you, okay? With how overworked you look lately, what if you faint halfway through?"

Suddenly, the surrounding air got a bit cooler.

Ye Zi’an’s eyes became as deep as an unfathomable well, "Wife, are you sure you don’t want to take back what you just said?"

Actually, the moment Yang Chuxia said it, she regretted it. Her mouth had betrayed her, but once words are out, they can’t be taken back.

"Hehe..." Yang Chuxia gave a dry laugh, "Let’s sleep, let’s sleep."

She closed her eyes, and in just a few moments, soft breathing sounds could be heard.

Ye Zi’an gritted his teeth; this one fell asleep so quickly!

He grudgingly bent down and bit her lip, "Just wait, my lord will see who faints first when we get back to the Capital City."

He really thought she was pretending to sleep, but he just didn’t want to do such things outside.

Feeling the sting on her lips, Yang Chuxia turned her body and secretly touched her mouth. This rascal really bit her!

Right after, an arm wrapped around her waist again, "Sleep now!"

Yang Chuxia smiled, gradually drifting off to sleep.

In the morning, when she woke up, the space beside her was already cold, indicating Ye Zi’an had long been awake.

After freshening up, she had some millet porridge and crab roe buns, then asked for paper and pen to write a letter to the eldest young master of the Jiang Family in Mianyang, asking him to come over when he had time to check on the longan here.

On Ye Zi’an’s side, he had Ye Liu call over Assistant General Liu from the stationed troops.

"General Liu, I’ve already sent a letter to Lingfu Prefecture to borrow some people. When the time comes, I’ll have them escort the silver to the Capital City. You’ll need to deploy some people to accompany them, for mutual supervision, to ensure that the amount of silver matches the account records when it arrives in the Capital City."

"Yes, my lord, I accept the order."

Ye Zi’an nodded, then pulled out the booklet Liu had submitted.

"This was tucked inside the booklet, I’m afraid you put it in the wrong place." Ye Zi’an pushed the few banknotes forward.

"My lord, that wasn’t misplaced, it was meant as a token of respect for you." Assistant General Liu hurriedly said.

Ye Zi’an’s expression remained indifferent, "Assistant General Liu, I just investigated corrupt officials. Are you now trying to tempt me with bribery?"

He continued, "Affairs related to local troops should be submitted directly to the Ministry of War. Some matters need to be presented to the Minister of Ministry of War. Perhaps you’re not aware of the Capital City’s official reshuffle; I was formerly in the Ministry of War, but I’ve now been transferred to the Ministry of Revenue. However, since you’ve presented it to me, I also took a look."
