After Marrying a Vegetative Princess, I Went Crazy With Joy!

The two brothers talked for a long time, but Su Li was quite content in his heart. At least recognizing a relative wasn’t violent, and it wasn’t as difficult as he had anticipated. The two brothers didn’t engage in unnecessary small talk when they parted ways.

The Su family had a small population, and Su Dingfang was now a fourth-rank general. Aside from his uncertain future, life was still passing by aligning with Su Li’s mindset and his desire to continue living. When Su Dingfang met Su Li for the first time after their long separation, he stayed until dark before leaving.

After the confrontation with Su Dingfang, Su Li finally understood his own position. While he was unbeatable in one-on-one combat, he would still be at a disadvantage if he were surrounded by an army and forced to fight on all sides. It wasn’t the time for him to act independently and become an ancestor. For now, he needed to persuade Li Er.

“Don’t worry. After all, he’s my father-in-law. It’s okay to back down a bit.” Su Li said.

Night fell, and Su Li peacefully fell asleep with Princess Changle in his arms. However, Princess Changle couldn’t find any rest as she experienced insomnia for the first time. She started worrying whether she was becoming a burden to Su Li. Although Su Dingfang’s words contained some resentment, every word was filled with affection, which made Princess Changle consider Su Li’s perspective.

She began to panic, wondering if there would come a day when she wouldn’t wake up at all. Was her husband, Su Li, truly tired of her? After all, it had only been two months. How long could he endure for her? Didn’t he want to continue the family line and carry on the family’s legacy?

Various anxious thoughts swirled in Princess Changle’s mind.

As the saying goes, in front of a long-term sick bed, even the most respectful sons can hesitate.

However, Su Li’s unwavering ability to be there for her every day, even as a female officer, was beyond reproach.

And so, Princess Changle remained restless until the sky turned white and a new day arrived. Finally, she lost consciousness and fell into a deep sleep.

“It’s a brand new day!”

Su Li stretched and yawned before immediately opening the system mall. He quickly realized that relying solely on luck wouldn’t get him far. Rolling his eyes, he noticed that the five items available today were all cheap miscellaneous goods worth only one or two points, none of which were useful. It seemed his luck had run out after scoring five good items the previous day.

As usual, he bought them and added them to his collection of clutter. Su Li now possessed all sorts of miscellaneous items, enough to open a department store.

“Little Panda…”

In his previous life, Su Li had been a smoker addicted to cigarettes. However, in this life, he had lost that habit. Naturally, he had no intention of continuing to smoke. The system mall still offered cigarettes, and although Su Li had saved a few in his collection, he found another one today.

But the system store’s refresh was entirely random. If he continued smoking in this life and couldn’t obtain anymore, it would disturb his mental state too much. Besides, Su Li had never been truly addicted to cigarettes in his previous life, and he had no intention of picking up the habit again. Nevertheless, he decided to buy one point’s worth for now and harm others later.

While exploring through the clutter, Su Li suddenly remembered that he hadn’t planted the sweet potatoes he had purchased yesterday. Though the system store sold them for only two points, they were considered valuable in ancient times. The introduction of crops like sweet potatoes and potatoes was no less than a treasure. From now on, even Li Er and Su Li must choose their words carefully.

Instructing a maid to find flower pots, Su Li relied on his memory and planted the sweet potatoes according to the knowledge from his books. Potatoes were cut into pieces, and while sweet potatoes were typically grown by transplanting seedlings, it was important to note that sweet potatoes were fruits and seeds. They could be planted directly, but it was more convenient to transplant seedlings.

However, Su Li didn’t plant all ten pounds of sweet potatoes but set aside five pounds and threw them into the system. The main reason was that the system mall sold them too cheaply, totaling only four points. Su Li was concerned that the sweet potatoes obtained from the system might not grow, leaving him empty-handed in the end.

Keep five pounds, and in case one doesn’t come out, at least you can get French fries and roasted sweet potatoes to satisfy your appetite, Su Li thought emotionally.

If this thing can really be grown, it will be like having a get-out-of-jail-free card. At the very least, I can enjoy freedom fries in the future with plenty of colas in the pile of clutter. Chicken nuggets, fries, and cola are perfect for a happy couch potato. Will not that be amazing? Su Li pondered.

The following days passed as usual, except for one more inexpensive brother. After discovering Su Li’s martial prowess, Su Dingfang felt a mix of guilt and admiration. He wanted to teach Su Li military strategy multiple times. In Su Dingfang’s opinion, Su Li had a strong foundation and a brave spirit that could make him invincible in the world, like a reborn overlord.

But Su Li dismissed it all, wasting time and delaying his opportunity to earn points. The most frustrating part was that he still hadn’t learned. He was honestly waiting for the system to scan products.

Su Li could sense that Su Dingfang was not valued. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have found his way into the princess’s mansion during his free time. Su Li also realized that Su Dingfang’s potential was not being fully utilized. Su Dingfang had even expressed his intention to discuss Su Li’s situation with Li Jing, hoping for some improvement. It was a regrettable situation in the princess’s mansion.

Furthermore, Su Li and Su Dingfang were brothers, adding another complexity layer. However, all of Su Dingfang’s polite requests were politely rejected by Su Li.

It was a joke… Without Princess Changle, what would he use to earn points? Should he rely on him?

Well, that might work… My elder brother was the future Duke, and the points I could earn through physical contact with him would not be insignificant. But… Do I really have to sleep with my own elder brother in the future just to earn points? The thought was terrifying.

Su Li could earn points with Changle 24 hours a day. Sleeping with my own elder brother… Well… Considering my elder brother’s wholehearted love for his younger siblings, it might just play into Su Dingfang’s hands. But let’s just forget about it.

Su Li claimed to enjoy his current life very much. But Princess Changle could be said to be suffering greatly these days. In the past, she had indulged in Su Li’s gentleness and care, fully enjoying his love. However, after being exposed by Su Dingfang, she realized she had deeply dragged Su Li down.

Especially after hearing Su Dingfang’s high praise for Su Li on multiple occasions. Changle learned from Su Dingfang that Su Li’s bravery was unmatched in the world and that his future was limitless. Even this fourth-ranked General was no match for her husband.

Changle was proud of her husband but also plagued by guilt.

It is me… who hold him back! It is me… who drag him down! As Su Dingfang said, my husband should have galloped on the battlefield, make significant contributions, become a marquis and a prime minister, and bring glory to our family in the Tang Dynasty!

Although she hadn’t witnessed it firsthand, Su Dingfang’s confidence was unwavering. Changle was willing to believe that her husband was as remarkable as Su Dingfang claimed. But because of her, her husband could only be confined to this small princess’s mansion, accompanied by a useless person all day long.

Su Li was unimpressed by Su Dingfang’s words. Su Dingfang might possess political savvy but not much else. Did he really expect Li Jing to intervene in this private royal matter? He doubt Li Jing would meddle in this personal affair. His own future was uncertain, and Li Jing was walking on thin ice. So why did Su Dingfang expect him to leave the Princess Mansion?

Su Li lamented that his elder brother couldn’t understand. Instead of understanding to leave the Princess Mansion and starting a new life, praying for Princess Changle’s swift recovery would be better.

Once Princess Changle woke up, Su Li would become the recognized son-in-law. Why did my elder brother need to be depressed about not being recognized for his talents all day long?
