Joyful Motherhood in a Rural Family

Chapter 474: Chapter 474: Combing Hair
However, her growing belly was an obstacle, and she failed to turn over even after trying twice in a row.

Although Di Yelei was physically tired, that ultimate release made him feel refreshed and helped Liu Sisi to finally lie down flat on her back.

“How does it feel? Do you think it’s okay? Does it hurt? How’s the baby?”

He carefully held her in his arms, propped up on one elbow, and asked her softly, with a tone full of concern and guilt.

While talking, he kissed her forehead, then looked at her sleepy eyes and couldn’t help but tease her again, tracing her delicate nose down with his lips. After a while, he finally released her, who was panting heavily.

He felt her passion today, so he couldn’t resist indulging himself, only to hurt her and the baby in her belly. If something really happens, what should he do?

“It’s fine, the baby is fine too, just a bit tired.”

Liu Sisi replied softly, leaning on his arm: “Besides, I feel really uncomfortable in my body; I want to take a bath.”

“It’s still cold outside. You can’t catch a cold just because you like to be clean. Wait for me while I go get some hot water.”

After saying that, without waiting for Liu Sisi’s reply, he got off the bed, put on his shoes, and walked away quickly.

Watching the strong figure disappearing in the doorway, the corner of Liu Sisi’s mouth couldn’t help but curl up: having a man who truly loves and cherishes her is so great!

He soon brought hot water. Di Yelei wanted to help, but Liu Sisi refused, insisting on getting up and washing herself.

Despite the slightly scalding water, she felt her entire body’s pores open as she soaked herself in it. After cleaning herself with hot water, it felt like she had come back to life.

After she finished cleaning, she nestled back into Di Yelei’s arms, found a comfortable position, and fell asleep in his embrace.

Early the next morning, Liu Sisi was awakened by her biological alarm clock on time.

As soon as she regained consciousness, she felt a pair of big hands constantly playing tricks on her chest, her pregnant body growing more and more voluptuous. It didn’t take long for her peaks to stand up, making it hard for her to ignore the sensation.

“Uh, Ye Lei, what are you doing? Let a girl sleep in the morning…”

Liu Sisi grumbled discontentedly, swatting his hand away like swatting a fly, but she failed to roll over.

She got up in frustration and turned over, lying back down. Turning over was difficult with her advanced pregnancy; it was truly tiring.

She closed her eyes again. Since hiring servants, she had gradually developed the habit of staying in bed. She couldn’t be blamed for it, after all, she was pregnant.

“My dear Sisi, you’re finally awake…”

Di Yelei whispered her name and clung to her again, hugging her from behind and kissing her earlobe, sending a tingling sensation throughout her whole body.

This bastard! Thinking about these things early in the morning!

“Don’t do that…”

Liu Sisi scolded him, yet her voice was laden with coquettish charm, enough to make one’s bones tingle.

No longer able to bear it, Di Yelei swept Liu Sisi into his arms, and his big hands began to act wantonly.

“No more, Ye Lei. Old He said I can’t overwork myself. Especially with this kind of thing! Besides, I need to get up and cook, and it wouldn’t be good if YingEr comes in and sees us later.”

Liu Sisi’s face was flushed, her body soft and fragrant, utterly tempting his willpower.

“My little kitten, I can’t help it. Just once, just this once, will you let me?”

Di Yelei coaxed her, the beautiful scene in front of him making him feel like he was about to explode! He needed her warmth to encompass him, and the feeling of being with her was so wonderful that he completely couldn’t control himself.

“I can’t, Ye Lei,wait. I know my body, and it really won’t work.”

Her watery eyes, filled with mist, stared unblinkingly at him, as captivating as stars, making it impossible for him to extricate himself.

He could joke about her on the side, but this was about their children, and she wouldn’t allow the slightest mistake.

Di Yelei collapsed in frustration beside her, truly wanting to just barge in and enjoy himself. However, thinking about Liu Sisi’s body, he lost all temper.

“Little kitten, come give me a couple of kisses, and once I’m satisfied, we’ll get up.”

In between talking, his lips pressed down again, using his own mouth to cover Liu Sisi’s, kissing repeatedly. His hands were not idle either, continuously fanning the flames of passion.

With great willpower, he forced himself to sit up and began to dress. He didn’t dare look back, fearing that if he caught another glimpse of her, he might recklessly press her down again, deeply loving her and unwilling to let go.

“The Lord County Magistrate gave me three days to hand over the work. I don’t need to go to the riverside to supervise the work during this time. Also, it doesn’t matter, as Xingyu is taking over the work on the riverside. I trust Xingyu; he’s capable.”

He explained his actions.

Liu Sisi also got dressed and said, “Do you have free time today? Why not go back to Upper Village for a while? Although you’re now a tiny official, it’s still worth going back and reporting, and perhaps hosting a banquet for the villagers. This way, people won’t say you’ve forgotten your roots and don’t remember your hometowns and villagers.”

Di Yelei thought about it, put on his waistband, and said: “You’re right! I should go back to Upper Village first. Here’s what we’ll do – I’ll go back to the county first, and you and Aunt Guihua will head straight to Upper Village. I’ll come over after noon.”

Liu Sisi thought for a moment, “That’s a good idea! Going back, we should be busy with food arrangements anyway, and your help wouldn’t make much of a difference there. It’s better for you to go back to the county first and then come over later.”

She also picked up her cotton shoes and began to put them on.

“Old Master, Madam, are you awake? This old servant has brought some water for you to wash your face.” Granny Hu called out from outside.

“Come in!”

Liu Sisi spoke softly, got up, and sat down under the windowsill, opening her dressing box. Di Yelei received the washbasin, wrung out the towel, and handed it to Liu Sisi. After a bout of cleansing, he once again leaned over.

“Come! Let your husband help you comb your hair.”

As Di Yelei spoke, he picked up the comb.

In the past, Liu Sisi would get busy cooking right after waking up, but now she had more leisure and took her time getting ready.

His big hands held the small comb, gently combing her hair with great care as if it was a fragile treasure.
