The Ger's Contract Marriage [BL]
Chapter 47: Face the Day

Chapter 47: Face the Day

The pain Xu Feng felt was much lighter than expected. A normal person might have died taking the abuse he did. Okay, maybe it wouldn’t lead to death, but the healing time should have been much longer.

The first time for gers who were taken as a wife was painful, but the level of pain was glossed over in all the educational material he read.

Maybe if he were a ger of higher standing with a background, his family would pay to have someone teach him. But for lower class gers, they were lucky if they even got one of the pamphlets he got.

"Being poor in ancient times could lead to severe ass pain."

Xu Feng couldn’t help but laugh at his own jokes. Too bad his sense of humor was lost on the people around him.

With the unmistakable noise from the bridal chamber, Si came barreling into the room as if a dog were chasing her down.

"Young mistress!"

"Young mistress," San came right at the heels of Si.

She tried to seem calm and nonchalant, but the relief on her face was clear as day.

"Why are you two making such a big fuss so early in the morning." Xu Feng was secretly pleased the two girls were worried about him. Until a thought crossed his mind.

"How many days was I asleep this time?"

"Huh?" Si was confused by her young mistress’s question. He was calm at first, but with that question, the ger’s face became more serious as he looked directly at her.

The intense stare was a little too much for Si. For San as well. The girls had run with curiosity, but now both were red faced.

Xu Feng was clothed, but his red robes were a bit disheveled after the tossing he must have done in his sleep. His usually androgynous face was more seductive than ever. The masculine energy around him had increased and so had his sex appeal.

"Ahem," San cleared her throat before looking down at her feet, "The mistress only slept one night. The young master and young mistress were wed yesterday."

"Ahhh," Xu Feng let out the breath he didn’t know he was holding. He hadn’t slept for days this time.

"The young mistress can take a hot bath."

Xu Feng was a bit confused. Did one of those two really clean him up earlier in the morning? How could they do it without anyone noticing?

Not wanting to touch on the events of the night prior, Xu Feng just nodded. A bath would feel good on his sore body.

With the not so helpful, help of the two worried and excited (?) girls, Xu Feng made his way to his own bathroom, where there was boiled hot water and a full bathtub.

It could only be Erlang who could prepare such a thoughtful bath. Although the boy was nowhere in sight, Xu Feng couldn’t help but smile.

Getting closer to the tub, the hot water was steaming, Erlang had worked hard in the snow. Xu Feng was once again grateful for the three children.

"Young mistress..."

"No," Xu Feng shot back, no matter how much he liked them, he wasn’t in bad enough shape to need help washing up.

The bath was relaxing.

Xu Feng humored the girls when he got out of the bath. He didn’t need their help to dress, but he didn’t mind compromising.

"Young mistress is perfect," Si said proudly as she put the simple crown on Xu Feng’s head.

The crown with the beautiful grey embroidered robe was stunning. The style of the robe was more generous than the other clothes Xu Feng had made for himself. It was specially prepared for today.

Xu Feng liked to be casual, but even so, he knew that he had just married into a prominent family. He would somewhat behave until the Xuan’s elders left his property.

A Xuan servant had long arrived to pick up the new young mistress, Xu Feng followed with a calm face. The old woman who came wasn’t old nursemaid Lin, but she still had wisdom written on her face.

The Xuan family really was a big family. Steward Wu made the servants of the family look bad, but they were good or at least well-educated ones with bad seeds mixed in.

When he woke up, Xu Feng was much sorer than now, but he still moved slowly as he walked. He didn’t need to walk so slowly, but walking fast might raise some red flags if anyone was watching.

He had a rough night. But then again, the people of the Xuan family didn’t know their young master was not only fucking his servant, they were also in love.

They didn’t seem very good at keeping a watchful eye over people.

Even after healing from using his abilities, after walking a few steps, Xu Feng still felt his legs trembling slightly, and a thin layer of sweat broke out on his forehead.

The small snowflakes helped combat the burning from the strain.

On the path out of his Blooming courtyard, their group of four—the unnamed Xuan servant, Xu Feng, Si, and San—ran into Xuan Yang, Xuan Jian, and two other men Xu Feng had never seen before.

The three men who shared a bed the night before all had straight faces. Xu Feng nodded at Xuan Yang before looking forward.

The majestic air around Xu Feng was completely different from the night before. As their group began to move again, Xuan Yang and Xuan Jian shared a covert glance. The ger really could be surprising.

He was able to walk after his first night with the very well-endowed Xuan Yang. They were expecting him to need to use a sedan chair. Xuan Jian had carefully prepared a substitute one for this morning.

On top of not needing the prepared sedan, the ger was completely different than last night, or even the month before. He seemed cold and detached, completely unfriendly, like a true young mistress from Jinghua.

Unknown to them, Xu Feng was feeling the pain from his adventures the night before. And he was still the same person, just with more clarity than he’d had for some time.

He was able to maintain himself now without his urges overriding his brain.

Arriving at the Flowering courtyard. This was the courtyard the rest of the Xuan family was staying in, Lady Xuan’s former courtyard.

At the entrance, the group stopped.

Xuan Yang then offered his palm calmly to the tall ger, "Let’s go in."

Without any fanfare, the generous palm reached out, the soft fingers were somehow reassuring.

Xu Feng wasn’t nervous of course. Meeting the fake-in-laws wasn’t something to be scared about.
