Go Inside and Wait for Your Husband

The sisters, Yang Aijin and Yang Ailian, wanted to help, but there was nothing they could do. They had no idea how to make the red-braised pork and noodles Zhou Yao was preparing, and they had never eaten either dish before, so all they could do was stand there and watch.

But they had gained a new understanding of their husband, Zhou Yao. In the Great Zhou State, this was utterly unimaginable: a man actually knew how to cook, and he even seemed quite good at it.

Of course, Zhou Yao's smooth, flowing movements left the sisters gaping. Food could actually be prepared this way! He had truly opened their eyes.

At that moment, Zhou Yao said to them, "What are you staring at? Everything's ready. Hurry and bring it to the table so we can eat."

Only then did the sisters come to their senses. "Oh, oh, oh... we'll bring it over right now... right now..."

Looking at the noodles and red-braised pork before them, Yang Aijin and Yang Ailian felt deeply moved, their eyes brimming with tears.

Seeing this, Zhou Yao smiled and said, "These are longevity noodles. People eat them on the night before their birthday, with the meaning that eating longevity noodles will bring a long life."

"This is red-braised pork. As you saw, it's made with pork belly. Whether it tastes good or not, you two will find out when you try it."

"There's no need to say anything now. Hurry and eat! The longevity noodles won't taste good once they clump together."

"I made these especially for you two. First, to celebrate our marriage today, and second, to celebrate your birthdays in advance."

Hearing their husband's words, Yang Aijin and Yang Ailian were deeply moved. They obediently picked up their noodles and began to eat. "Mm... delicious... it's really so delicious. I've never had noodles this good before."

"And this red-braised pork is so delicious too. Th-this... I've never eaten noodles or red-braised pork this good before."

Then the sisters went into a frenzy of eating. For the two of them, today's two meals were the best and most filling they had eaten in years.

After eating, the sisters took it upon themselves to wash the bowls and scrub the pots, then heated water to wash their faces and feet. By then, the sky had gone dark. Once all three had finished washing up, the sisters looked at each other and couldn't help blushing. They both knew what came next.

Zhou Yao noticed their awkwardness and said to them with a smile, "You two go inside and wait for your husband. I'll practice for a bit first. It's something I do every night before bed. Be good... I'll be there soon."

With that, Zhou Yao stepped forward and patted both sisters on the bottom. They were so embarrassed that they turned and fled into the bedroom, then shut the door.

Zhou Yao's expression changed at once, his smile giving way to a murderous look. Then he went out the front door and, in the blink of an eye, appeared in the woods outside the courtyard.

That's right... Zhou Yao knew kung fu, and he was an expert among experts. Although Zhou Yao considered the original owner of his body a weakling, the original owner had practiced martial arts since childhood, and his kung fu was fairly good.

Before transmigrating, Zhou Yao himself had been a kung fu expert. His village was known for its martial arts and was home to countless experts. From childhood onward, Zhou Yao had been well liked by the elders in the village.

Those elders had taught Zhou Yao their special skills because he was a martial arts genius. Whatever martial art it was, he could master it as soon as he learned it, and he only grew more proficient the more he practiced.

How could the elders not be overjoyed to have such a disciple? So they all poured out every one of their best skills to Zhou Yao, and he lived up to their expectations, mastering them all.

Zhou Yao had also learned parkour as a way to train his body, making himself more agile and building up his stamina.
