Under Su Wanqiu's detailed explanation.
Chen Xuan and the others finally understood the whole story.
It turned out that,
on the way back from the village's grain store after buying sorghum flour, Su Wanqiu happened to encounter Li Tie, this rogue and scoundrel.
He kept calling her "sister" in a very lewd manner.
At first, Su Wanqiu tried to avoid trouble by patiently explaining to him that Su Yun was already married to Chen Xuan.
However,
to her surprise, this scoundrel simply didn't believe it.
He even shamelessly suggested that if Su Wanqiu was willing, he wouldn't mind marrying her as well.
Instantly,
this infuriated Su Wanqiu.
If it hadn't been for the crowd around and her being a woman, moreover a widow,
she wouldn't have hesitated to scold this scoundrel.
Yet even so,
Li Tie refused to let her leave easily, claiming that she must agree to him first.
Luckily,
Uncle Wang, who had good terms with the Chen family, happened to pass by.
He immediately planned to teach this rogue a lesson.
Being the village blacksmith, his robust physique was obviously nothing Li Tie, whose body was weakened by wine and debauchery, could compare to.
Frightened, he hastily fled,
but not without leaving a threat,
ten days,
only giving Su Wanqiu ten days to consider, otherwise, he would ask his older brother to cause trouble for her family.
"Courting death!"
Chen Xuan slammed his fist onto the table.
His eyes radiated a chilling light.
Su Yun was now his wife, yet this scoundrel dared to have lustful thoughts about her.
Not to mention, he even had designs on his sister-in-law, Su Wanqiu.
It was like lighting a lamp in a toilet, courting death!
"What should we do, husband?"
Su Yun, terrified, turned pale and clung to his arm.
"Don't worry, as long as I'm here, nothing will happen, don't be afraid!"
Chen Xuan embraced her, gently patting her back as he comforted her.
After speaking,
he turned his head to look at Su Wanqiu sitting on the bench, face full of worry, "Sister-in-law, don't worry, I won't go into the mountains to hunt during this time, I'll stay home, and in broad daylight, even if his older brother is part of the Wild Wolf Gang, I don't believe he has the guts to act recklessly!"
"But..."
Su Wanqiu looked up at Chen Xuan, despite his assurances, she was still worried, and seemed hesitant to speak.
But,
seeing Su Yun looking frightened,
ultimately she said nothing further, just nodded slightly.
Chen Xuan, seeing this, could more or less guess her meaning.
As the pillar of the household,
the source of income depended entirely on him.
As a hunter, not going into the mountains to hunt was unrealistic.
At that moment,
he had already made up his mind.
Since this scoundrel Li Tie was causing trouble, the ultimate solution was to deal with him at the source.
However, it would take time!
One day,
the Chen family was permeated with a tense atmosphere.
However,
Chen Xuan didn't say much more.
He knew that once Li Tie was dealt with, the problem would be solved.
As night fell!
In Chen Xuan's room, Su Yun nestled in his arms.
"Husband, are you sure it's okay?"
Just thinking of that rogue Li Tie, every hair on her body stood on end.
It made her feel nauseous.
She thought that being taken by someone like him was worse than dying.
"Don't worry!" Chen Xuan lowered his head to give her a gentle kiss on her forehead, then tightened his embrace slightly, continuing, "Didn't he say ten days? You'll see, your husband won't even need ten days to deal with this scoundrel and ensure he never dares to target us again!"
"Really?"
Su Yun's head shot up suddenly, their eyes locking together.
"Slap!"
Chen Xuan's hand inside the blanket landed firmly on her firm bottom, then he pinched her chin, pretending to be angry, "How dare you doubt your husband, you need to be spanked!"
"Humph! It hurts!"
Su Yun pouted playfully.
"Hurts? Then should your husband treat it for you?"
The little girl rolled her eyes, a bit helpless.
It was your fault for hitting it so hard, isn't it?
Nevertheless, she cooperated and asked, "How would you treat it, husband?"
Chen Xuan whispered two words into her ear,
acupuncture!
Su Yun listened in confusion, but the next moment, when she felt a pair of large hands roaming there, she immediately understood.
She buried her head in Chen Xuan's chest with a flushed face.
All worries and fears vanished at that moment.
She only felt,
a burning heat.
.....
In the morning,
Chen Xuan had just opened his eyes when he saw the flashing message at the corner.
"Why is it 5 points this time?"
"Does it mean the points earned each time are not fixed?"
Recalling the details of last night,
there was nothing special; he had only used all the techniques he learned from Teacher Jia Teng back on Blue Star.
Could it be because of that?
Or was it that last night's duration was indeed a bit longer?
Hmm, it should have been a bit longer.
Could it be because of that?
...
His mind began to speculate various possibilities.
After all,
he was currently in dire need of skill points.
"I must figure this out!"
...
During the day,
with Chen Xuan at home, and intentionally or not, he comforted the two women.
Gradually,
the tense atmosphere from the previous day lessened considerably.
Another night arrived.
On the bed,
Chen Xuan employed the same methods from the previous night, practicing them on Su Yun.
The entire room,
was filled with strange sounds.
Chen Xuan had no choice but to cover her mouth.
Meanwhile,
in the other room, Su Wanqiu's expression was peculiar.
"Those two..."
She gave a smile.
Yet soon, her expression turned to one of faint envy.
Comparing with this younger sister, she had truly suffered. When she married into this family, Chen Xuan's older brother was already seriously ill and couldn't do anything.
Not long after, he passed away.
She's still...
"Sigh..."
Thinking about this,
she sighed, then covered her ears, curling herself under the blanket.
.....
....
.....
After five days,
Chen Xuan finally figured it out roughly.
The points given seemed to be related to Su Yun.
Uh....
"This system is really improper."
Chen Xuan lay on the bed, his expression strange, muttering.
Seems like from now on, how many points he could earn would depend on his abilities.
"Hehe~~~"
....
Two more days passed,
and Chen Xuan had accumulated 57 skill points.
At night,
after a round of output, he looked at the little girl sleeping in his embrace.
Chen Xuan carefully got out of bed, randomly put on a thick cotton jacket, and quietly left the room.
He lit an oil lamp and went to the kitchen.
"Come out."
He silently chanted in his heart.
A golden panel appeared before him.
[Name: Chen Xuan]
[Life Span: 18/55]
[Realm: Not yet initiated]
[Cultivation Technique: Health Cultivation (Not yet initiated) (0/50)]
[Skills: Beginner Archery (5/10), Beginner Tracking Technique (6/10)]
[Skill Points: 57]
Examining the panel up and down.
After days of hard work, the skill points finally exceeded 50, enough to upgrade the Health Cultivation.
Inwardly, he felt a faint excitement.
In his memory,
his deceased father seemed to have told him long ago that their ancestor became a true martial artist through this very cultivation technique, leading a smooth life thereafter.
Taking a deep breath to calm his excited heart.
