Yun Ge suddenly felt a bit heartbroken, feeling that she had become useless. Fortunately, Dong Huiying was very sensitive, noticed her low spirits, and consoled her a lot, making Yun Ge cheer up again. After the medicinal meal was ready, Dong Huiying carried the dish upstairs and was about to knock on the door when she heard someone inside say, "What should I do if my wife is angry? She... she is very different from other women in Dayuan, I can feel that my wife’s character and views often don’t fit in here." It was Shujun’s voice. Dong Huiying thought to herself, Why should she be angry? Following Shujun, Liang Zhichen also spoke, "Brothers sharing a wife is a common practice in Dayuan, and your place in her heart is undeniably significant. So far, she has accepted only you, as for the rest of us..." Liang Zhichen gave a wry smile. Shujun seemed a bit at a loss, then Shu Yu, holding a cup of hot tea, leisurely said, "Why not take the bull by the horns, secure the status first, then cultivate a relationship with her?" The brothers all suddenly turned to look at Shu Yu, who looked indifferent, "What? I’m just offering a suggestion." Big Brother sighed, "We must not act rashly, if the wife is unwilling, no one must force her." Afterwards, the six brothers exchanged glances, then fell silent again. Just outside the door, Dong Huiying was completely stunned. Although she had only overheard a few sentences, she had already begun to piece things together. She blinked, now understanding, yet her mood had significantly dropped. She forced a somewhat unnatural smile, then took a deep breath, repeatedly adjusting her facial expression before finally knocking on the door, "May I come in?" Liang Yuening quickly rushed over to open the door. The wife said with a beaming smile, "I’ve made a pot of medicinal meal for Shujun. You all can have some too, the ingredients are all tonic and only beneficial for the body." She walked in and found the brothers gathered around the round wooden table, with Zhichen, Shu Yu, and Shujun seated, while the remaining three stood. She set the tray down on the table, then served each of the six a portion. When handing the bowl of soup to Shujun, her hand trembled slightly, then she steadied herself, "Be careful, it’s hot," her voice was very gentle. After some small talk, she finally said to everyone, "Enjoy the warmth and have an early night’s sleep." Big Brother Liang Zhichen looked thoughtful, Second Brother Shu Yu glanced at the wife, Xiaoliu Yixuan remained silent, bowing his head. The wife was naturally not good at concealing her feelings—she had probably heard, right? After Dong Huiying left the room, Liang Zhichen found an excuse, claiming he wanted to discuss the next day’s route with his wife and went out to find her. When he came out, he saw the wife leaning against the wall. He strode over quickly, then suddenly spread his arms and embraced her fully. Dong Huiying bit her lip, then said softly, "I’m okay, it’s just my mindset, I’ll get used to it soon." She optimistically squeezed out a smile, then slowly turned back. She gently cradled Zhichen’s white hair, her expression was both pained and complex, "I, with the six of you, after all, have to spend a lifetime together, I understand." Liang Zhichen’s voice was somewhat hoarse, "Shujun, Shujun also has it tough."
