Zi Que 'er placed Ding Ning's head on her lap and massaged his temples. Bai Xun' er knelt on the bed and gently massaged his legs. Meow Meow obediently massaged his chest and abdomen.
The three women divided up the work and used this method to comfort their man's wounded heart. It was truly enviable.
Ding Ning leaned into Zi Que 'er's warm embrace and enjoyed the three women's attentive service. He felt touched and proud at the same time. Even the emperor of ancient times would not be able to enjoy the service of three peerless beauties.
The land of tenderness was the grave of a hero.
Smelling the faint fragrance of the three women, Ding Ning's heart gradually became peaceful. Even his sorrow was unknowingly diluted. With his mind relaxed, he actually fell asleep.
When the three women saw Ding Ning's brows relax in his sleep and the corners of his lips curl up slightly with a faint smile, they smiled sweetly at each other and quietly climbed down the bed. After carefully covering Ding Ning with a thin blanket, they tiptoed away.
"Sister Xun 'er, Sister Meow Meow, I still have matters to attend to in the clan. I'll have to trouble you to take care of my husband.
Although Zi Que 'er was grooming Qing Que' er to take over, she was still quite busy and had to rush back immediately.
"Sister Zi, just go and do what you need to do. Meow Meow and I will be here.
We'll be fine, "Bai Xun 'er replied softly despite her cold appearance.
"That's right, Madam Zi. Madam Xun 'er and I will definitely take good care of Young Master."
Meow Meow hurriedly expressed its stance. She always felt nervous when facing Zi Que 'er.
"Sister Meow Meow, what nonsense are you talking about? What Madam …"
Zi Que 'er pinched Meow Meow's delicate little face with a smile and pretended to be angry. "There's no such thing as seniority in my husband's place. There's no difference between wives and concubines. Our statuses are all equal. I'm my husband's wife. You can just call me Sister Zi in the future."
"That's right, Meow Meow. You're the woman on my husband's bed, so you're our sister. Don't call me Madam in the future. That'll make others laugh at you.
Bai Xun 'er also said with a pleasant expression. She did not look down on Meow Meow because of her background.
Meow Meow's beautiful eyes were filled with tears. It was so touched that it almost shed tears. It bit its lower lip and nodded heavily. "Sister Zi, Sister Xun Er, I'll remember you."
"Good! That's right. I heard from Jier and Leilei that my husband doesn't like us to call him 'husband'. He likes us to call him 'husband'. It's really a strange form of address. Jier and Leilei have adapted to it. We should also learn to change the way we address him. "
Zi Que 'er chuckled and was about to leave when she suddenly stopped and turned around.
"Hubby? What a weird name. "
Meow Meow blushed and muttered softly.
"Haha, I've heard my husband explain that only by calling us husband can we grow old together. He doesn't like to call us wife either. He calls us wife."
Bai Xun 'er pursed her lips and chuckled. She seemed to find this explanation quite interesting.
"Hubby? Wife? A husband who would live to a ripe old age? Then what does his wife mean? A wife who will grow old together doesn't seem to fit either. "
Zi Que 'er's interest was piqued as she asked curiously.
Bai Xun 'er smiled and explained, "My husband once said that a wife is a wife who will never leave him even when he's old."
"Wife?"
Zi Que 'er laughed involuntarily. She muttered such unfamiliar terms as husband, wife, wife, and wife in a low voice. Her eyes grew brighter and brighter. "You don't say. Although addressing each other as husband and wife seems very casual and vulgar, after thinking about it carefully, it sounds more intimate and loving than the respectful way of addressing each other like husband and wife."
"Yes, I also feel the same way. Although husband and wife are not bad, I always feel that it's more polite and distant. It doesn't sound as casual and loving as husband and wife."
Bai Xun 'er nodded repeatedly. She pursed her lips and chuckled. "In the words of my husband, addressing each other as husband and wife is more down to earth."
"Haha, husband … Uh, no, husband is really an interesting person. He can even change a form of address to be so interesting."
Zi Que 'er covered her mouth and chuckled. She subconsciously glanced at the room where Ding Ning was sleeping soundly. Her beautiful eyes were filled with deep love.
"I think that wife is also quite good. Although it sounds very crude and straightforward, it gives people a very warm feeling. It's like … it's like …"
Meow Meow wanted to express a certain meaning, but due to the lack of language, it couldn't accurately describe it. It was so anxious that its little face turned red, and it couldn't find a suitable adjective for a long time.
"Private belongings."
"There's someone in the house."
Zi Que 'er and Bai Xun' er said in unison. Although they used different words, the general meaning was similar.
"Yes, yes, yes. Just like we are all husbands … Uh, the collection in the old husband's house is his private belongings."
Meow Meow nodded repeatedly, its little head nodding like it was pounding garlic. It was as cute as it could be.
Zi Que 'er and Bai Xun' er giggled. Thinking about it carefully, the way they addressed each other as wife really did have such a meaning. It seemed to contain the meaning of declaring sovereignty.
"Pfft, husband only knows how to think about these messy things all day long. I can tell that he is a very possessive person just by hearing it."
Zi Que 'er spat lightly, and said with a slightly sour tone, "Alright, I'll leave first. I'll ask Hua Que' er to move in later. Hmph, I already knew that this little hussy has feelings for husband, but I didn't think that the two of them would already be eyeing each other."
"Haha, husband is now famous for being lecherous. It's not like it's a big problem. Besides, Hua Que 'er is a great beauty. It would be strange if husband doesn't have feelings for her. Big Sister Zi, don't be jealous. With husband's ability, he only found the few of us, which is already very restrained. Let's just be content."
Bai Xun 'er was rather open-minded, and teased with a smile.
"I'm not jealous. It's just that although Hua Que 'er and I are not directly related by blood, in terms of seniority, she can be considered as my great-granddaughter. If she were to marry husband at the same time as me, it wouldn't look good on me no matter what."
Zi Que 'er said helplessly. She also knew that what Bai Xun' er said was the truth. After all, demon race experts had a long lifespan, and it wasn't that easy for them to reproduce. Not to mention marrying a few women, there were many who married thousands of women. Compared to them, Ding Ning was simply a cat that didn't cheat. However, Hua Que 'er was still her junior, and if she were to marry Ding Ning at the same time as her, there would inevitably be people making irresponsible remarks and spreading unpleasant rumors, which made her feel very uncomfortable.
"Don't worry, let husband hold two weddings later. After separating you and Hua Que 'er, no one will gossip."
Bai Xun 'er also knew of her concerns, and suggested with a smile.
"It's not as simple as you say. With husband's current status, holding a wedding will definitely be a grand event that will shake the entire Myriad Demon Territory. According to the rules, we have to enter the Sacred Mountain to hold an ancestral worship ceremony to pray for blessings from our ancestors. Not only the Winged Clan, but also the Nine-Tailed Phoenix Clan and the Medusa Clan. If Kong Lei changes her mind, we'll add the Peacock Clan."
Zi Que 'er spoke up to here, and looked at Meow Meow with some embarrassment. "Although the ancestors of the Cat Clan are not buried in the Sacred Mountain, according to the rules, the Cat Clan also has to hold an ancestral worship ceremony to pray for blessings."
Meow Meow was confused, and said doubtfully, "Our Cat Clan doesn't have such a ceremony for marrying off our daughter. I've never heard of it."
"Maybe your Cat Clan has already abandoned this tradition. That's good too, it saves us trouble. I hope we don't have to go through this formality, it's too complicated. We have to fast for seven days in advance, bathe and change clothes early in the morning, dress up beautifully, and kneel in front of the ancestral altar to pray piously. The ancestral worship ceremony will take an entire day, it's so troublesome."
Zi Que 'er said with a gloomy face.
Bai Xun 'er had a fearful look on her face. "It can't be, it's so troublesome? I'd better not get married. Anyway, it's just a formality. I can follow my husband, it doesn't matter even if I don't have a title. "
"That's not up to you. Even if you're willing, your clansmen won't agree. If my husband was a nobody, it wouldn't matter. But he's now a commander, and one of the chairmen of the Alliance. His status is noble, and the Medusa Clan will definitely not do it half-heartedly."
Zi Que 'er said with a hint of schadenfreude. She felt more at ease to have someone suffer with her.
Bai Xun 'er's beautiful face turned bitter, and she looked at Fan Miaomiao with envy. "If only I was from the Cat Clan, I wouldn't have to suffer like this."
Fan Miaomiao laughed foolishly, but she was secretly envious. She felt that Bai Xun 'er didn't know how lucky she was, and how good it would be if she was born into a big clan.
Although paying respects to the ancestors was a tough job, to Miaomiao, it was a once in a lifetime opportunity for a woman, so no matter how grand it was, it wouldn't be too much.
This was probably the mentality of besieging a city. The people outside the city wanted to enter the city, but the people inside the city yearned for life outside the city. Different backgrounds, different living environments, and different horizons meant that everyone would view things differently.
Zi Que 'er left in a hurry, and Bai Xun' er sat by the bed to watch over Ding Ning, while Miaomiao persisted in carrying out its mother's teachings. If you want to capture a man's heart, you must first capture a man's stomach. Miaomiao rushed into the kitchen and displayed its culinary skills, meticulously preparing dinner for Ding Ning.
The children of poor people matured early, and as a girl who shouldered the heavy responsibility of raising her two younger sisters, cooking was an essential survival skill for Miaomiao.
Miaomiao's two younger sisters matured early, and this short life in the Governor's Office, which was less than a day, was simply a paradise that they didn't even dare to dream of. When they found out that Ding Ning disliked them for being too young and didn't intend to take them into his house for the time being, they were very worried for a while, fearing that they would be chased out of the house one day when their elder sister fell out of favor.
Since young, they knew the hardships and difficulties of life. When their elder sister went out to work to earn money and didn't have the time to take care of them, they were self-reliant, thinking of ways to fill their stomachs, and honing their culinary skills. Thus, when they heard that their elder sister was cooking dinner for their brother-in-law, they immediately rushed over.
The three sisters chased out the full-time kitchen maids in the residence, and with great teamwork, they prepared to cook the most delicious meal to please the man who changed their fate.
When the two restless little girls received their elder sister's affirmation that even if Ding Ning didn't take them in, they would still be able to live here in the future, they instantly beamed with joy, and worked even harder. For a moment, the kitchen was filled with happy laughter that sounded like silver bells.
They were very happy to have a place to shelter them from the wind and rain, to be able to eat their fill without having to go hungry, and to not be bullied by others.
Happiness, sometimes, was actually so simple.
Although it sounded a little bitter, contentment brought happiness, and people would live more easily and happily.
Miaomiao looked at the two younger sisters' joyful expressions and felt a little sour in her nose. She secretly swore to herself that she must do her best to serve Ding Ning well and let her younger sisters live a better life.
That night, Miaomiao and her sister's feast made Ding Ning's appetite greatly, and he was full of praise for their culinary skills.
Although their culinary skills were still somewhat inferior to Luoxue's, for someone like him who hadn't had a proper meal for more than a year, it was undoubtedly delicious.
Of course, this also had a lot to do with the shortage of various seasonings in the Demon Clan. Even on Earth, the three sisters' culinary skills were considered quite good.
