Chapter 679: You Can Sleep Now
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Liu Sanniang took a shower absent-mindedly. After Xiang’er finished drinking the goat milk, she slept obediently in the cradle. Chu Yan had already coaxed Xiang’er to sleep.
Liu Sanniang found it unbelievable. Xiang’er was simply the easiest child to take care of in the world. At night, she slept for the entire night.
After Liu Sanniang fell asleep, Chu Yan placed his hand on her waist and did not do anything else.
Liu Sanniang was distracted and couldn’t help but think of what her best friends said about men having a change of heart after their wife gave birth.
Liu Sanniang couldn’t help but ask, “Do you not like me anymore?”
Chu Yan’s hand on Liu Sanniang’s waist paused for a moment before he turned Liu Sanniang around. He looked at Liu Sanniang with a deep gaze. “Say that again.”
Looking into his deep eyes, Liu Sanniang did not have the courage to ask again. However, she felt uncomfortable and stammered, “You, why do you… not…”
Liu Sanniang couldn’t bring herself to ask it. “Nothing. Let’s sleep.”
Chu Yan leaned over and forced Liu Sanniang to look into his eyes. “Sleep?”
Liu Sanniang nodded obediently. Of course she was going to sleep.
Looking at such a dangerous Chu Yan, Liu Sanniang subconsciously wanted to escape.
The passionate kiss almost drowned Liu Sanniang. She felt a little suffocated.
She was already Chu Yan’s wife and had his child. It was only natural for them to be intimate, and they should have done it countless times, but she couldn’t remember anything.
The suffocating kiss was as hot as fire, giving her no chance to think.

The next morning, Liu Sanniang opened her eyes and recalled the kiss last night. She wanted to dig a hole and hide in it. She actually fell asleep from the kiss.
Liu Sanniang got up and washed up. Xiang’er had already eaten her fill, and there was goat milk at the corner of her mouth.
Liu Sanniang couldn’t help but hug her and kiss her. How could she be so cute?
After eating, Liu Sanniang began to embroider. She had dealings with two embroiderers. This time, she was embroidering clothes for a rich family. The white gardenia Liu Sanniang embroidered looked especially beautiful.
It would only take half a day to finish today.
Chu Yan had already gone to the smithy. Liu Sanniang folded the embroidered clothes and put them away. She handed Xiang’er to her sister-in-law, Tang An, and left.
There were several embroidery shops in Yong County. In her previous life, she often interacted with two of them. After she got old, she relied on embroidery to make a living. Now, Liu Sanniang still chose these two embroidery shops.
Liu Sanniang handed over the embroidered clothes. The shopkeeper unfolded it and said, “Sanniang, your embroidery is really amazing. In the entire Yong County, you are the best.”
The shopkeeper gave her a thumbs up. The shopkeeper’s surname was Huang. Liu Sanniang called him Uncle Huang. Liu Sanniang smiled and said, “Uncle Huang, you flatter me.”
Shopkeeper Huang smiled. “You’re too humble. With your skills, you deserve it. I happen to have another order in my hand. I’ll give you the money for this one first.”
Liu Sanniang nodded. She and Chu Yan were a family, so she naturally could not let him raise the family alone. Moreover, it was easy to take care of Xiang’er.
Shopkeeper Huang brought over money.
Liu Sanniang put away the money. Shopkeeper Huang asked the assistant to bring over some useless cloth. “Sanniang, these are all good materials. Take them back. You’re good at making clothes. See if you can make some clothes for your little girl to wear.”
Liu Sanniang accepted Shopkeeper Huang’s kindness and put it in the basket. This time, it was a light yellow color. The color was very fresh. One could tell at a glance that it was something a girl wanted to wear.
Liu Sanniang already had a style she wanted to make in her mind.
After taking it, she went to the grocery store, bought some small things, and prepared to go and pick up her daughter.
After returning home, she took out the materials that Shopkeeper Huang had given her. Xiang’er had a soft and tender skin, and she indeed needed some good materials for her undergarments.
Xiang’er was still young. With these good materials, Liu Sanniang could make two or three sets of undergarments.
Liu Sanniang only embroidered a few small yellow flowers on the side of the undergarment.
Chu Yan returned and went to the kitchen.
Liu Sanniang went to help start the fire. Their days were peaceful and sweet.
Time seemed to pass quickly. Liu Sanniang felt like she was in a dream, but every day was real.
In the blink of an eye, Xiang’er was already three years old.
She knew how to call her father, call her mother, and was attached to her parents.
It was Xiang’er’s three-year-old birthday today. Liu Sanniang brought Xiang’er to her family and asked Madam Liu to take care of her. She was going out to buy groceries to celebrate Xiang’er’s birthday.
Liu Sanniang went to the market and bought chickens, ducks, and fish. Coincidentally, there were also fresh prawns sent over from Yuezhou. This was very rare.
Liu Sanniang bought some. Although she and Chu Yan had already saved up more than a hundred taels of silver, her heart still ached when she spent the money. Her mother had always taught to be frugal.
After buying the groceries, Liu Sanniang prepared to go back.
When she passed by a bookstore, she realized that there were many people gathered outside. She heard a woman ask, “Liu Shun, I won’t agree to divorce you even if I die. We’ve been married for so many years. I’ve never let you down. Why did you divorce me?”
Liu Sanniang frowned. She remembered that in her previous life, Liu Shun abandoned his wife and child after passing the imperial examination.
In her previous life, she did not like to go out much at that time. She only heard later that when Liu Shun left, that woman stopped him at the city gate and cursed.
However, even so, she still couldn’t stop Liu Shun from leaving. After Liu Shun left, Liu Sanniang never saw him again.
Now that she saw them arguing, Liu Sanniang realized that Liu Shun and his wife had already started arguing before they divorced.
Everyone was discussing. Some accused Liu Shun of being ungrateful, while others said that there was no need to make such a big deal out of divorce.
The woman shouted hysterically, “Tell me, why aren’t you saying anything? Why are you divorcing me?”
Liu Shtin’s voice was cold. “Because I have no feelings for you.”
“No feelings? Hahaha, Liu Shun, have you forgotten that back then, you were the one who came to propose the marriage to me? You were the one who tried to please me…” The woman’s voice was sharp and filled with sarcasm..
