I Became the Young Wife of the Martial Arts Novel’s Male Lead

Episode 39

* * *

After being dragged into the living room by Yerin.

Doyul was sitting on the bed with a puzzled look on his face.

‘Something… … Time passed like a storm.’

First, Yerin soaked Doyul in hot water.

Then, he changed into soft clothes and placed him on the bed.

He even carefully wrapped a blanket around her shoulders.

‘I really feel like a child.’

Doyul fiddled with his sleeves feeling embarrassed.

‘It’s rather abnormal for a 15-year-old boy to work while sleeping for several days.’

Yerin’s firm voice still rang in my ears.

“… … “It’s abnormal.”

At that time, Doyul was thinking about those words.

“Palace lord?”

Someone suddenly spoke to Doyul.

It was Yerin.

“Did you by any chance say something to me?”

“Oh, no. “I’m talking to myself.”

Doyul, who was waving his hands, suddenly looked at the items Yerin was laying out on the table.

“But ma’am, those are…” … ?”

“Oh, I want to give the palace lord a cup of tea.”

The tea utensils were neatly placed on the table.

“I asked my sister-in-law for some tea leaves that help me sleep.”

“A tea that helps you sleep better?”

Doyul blinked his eyes.

Come to think of it, I did drink tea to keep me awake.

‘… … ‘I don’t think I’ve ever had tea to help me sleep.’

Doyul’s face became new, and his eyes caught Yerin moving briskly.

Yerin put dried tea leaves in a teapot and poured warm water.

The scent of tea spreads gently.

“If you’re going to rest, you have to rest for sure. “Isn’t that right?”

Yerin, who spoke like that, playfully shrugged her shoulders.

“Try to be grateful. “Do you think I care this much about my palace lord?”

Doyul burst out laughing.

“Yes, thank you.”

“There’s no wife like me, right?”

“sure.”

Doyul quickly agreed with Yerin’s words.

The two people, who were looking at each other, burst out laughing without even knowing who was the first.

Yerin waited for the tea to finish brewing and poured it out.

Doyul got up from his seat and tried to approach the table where Yerin was.

But Yerin spoke a little faster.

“I’m tired. Why do I get up? “I’m just sitting there.”

“yes?”

Doyul looked at her with a puzzled face.

At the same time, Yerin picked up the teacup and placed it in Doyul’s hand.

“You can drink it like this.”

“But it’s not polite to your wife…” … .”

“I said I’m fine, so what?”

Yerin shrugged, lifted the blanket wrapped around Doyul’s shoulders and snuggled inside.

Then, he makes eye contact with Doyul and smiles brightly.

“How is it, is it warm?”

“… … “I see.”

Feeling that his face was getting hot for some reason, Doyul lowered his gaze to the teacup he was holding in his hand.

Sometimes, whenever I talk to Yerin like this… … .

My heart is pounding.

Strangely enough.

‘I, too, think all sorts of useless thoughts.’

I felt unfamiliar with the fact that my eyes kept looking towards Yerin.

To get rid of the thoughts that are cluttering my mind.

Doyul quickly took a sip of the tea.

At the same time, Yerin’s eyes widened.

“Gu, palace lord!”

Yerin urgently tried to dissuade Doyul.

“The tea will still be hot… … !”

“Cough!”

At the same time, Doyul coughed violently.

“Look at that, you should have drank it slowly!”

Yerin was shocked and wiped his mouth with a handkerchief.

Doyul, startled, leaned back.

too… … What can I say?

Because it’s a gentle behavior I’ve never encountered before.

Because no one has ever treated Doyul like this… … .

“… … “It’s okay.”

Doyul tried to act calm and turned his head away.

It’s somehow embarrassing and unfamiliar.

… … It felt like my heart was beating fast.

The area behind Doyul’s ears had already turned bright red.

“Palace, your face is red.”

However, Yerin, who had no idea what Doyul was up to, just looked up at Doyul with a worried face.

“Aren’t you pushing yourself too hard lately?”

“No, that’s… … .”

“If you have a fever, it’s a big problem.”

Additionally, a small palm covers the forehead.

Doyul was now afraid that Yerin would hear his heartbeat.

“Gwae, it’s okay!!”

So Doyul reflexively raised his voice without realizing it.

A loud voice rang out.

“… … .”

Yerin, who was looking at Doyul with a sullen expression, nodded.

“Yeah, whatever. “I think you’re okay.”

In response, Doyul’s face began to turn red in a different way.

“Uh… … !”

Unable to overcome his shame, Doyul opened his mouth in haste.

“Tea, the tea tastes really good!”

Well, the painstaking efforts to change the topic stand out.

Yerin nodded with a sad face.

“thank you.”

After those words, there was silence.

“… … .”

“… … .”

Meanwhile, Yerin didn’t say much to Doyul.

‘I’m so embarrassed.’

It was to give Doyul time to control his mind.

After a while.

Doyul calmed down and opened his mouth.

“Actually, when I traded Seolucho this time, I thought I would get money or valuables in addition to grain.”

“What is it, are you talking about work again?”

At best I told him to rest.

Yerin pouted her lips.

Then Doyul smiled slightly.

“yes. Still, it is a story that must be told.”

“What are you talking about?”

“Dear Madam… … “I don’t think I’ve ever been able to say thank you.”

Those words were full of sincerity.

Yerin also stopped being playful and looked serious.

“But you got something much more valuable than that.”

“… … Lord of the palace.”

“The plains of Sichuan Province… … I never even thought I would be able to get him.”

Before I knew it, Doyul’s voice was trembling slightly with emotion.

What makes me happiest above all else.

‘That your wife values ​​the people of Beihai Province.’

By taking control of the plains of Sichuan Province, the Beihai Ice Palace gained a minimal safety net for grain.

We have become self-sufficient in a certain amount of food.

That means anywhere anymore.

‘The grain has made it impossible to tighten the leash on the North Sea Ice Palace.’

Doyul bowed his head.

“Thank you sincerely.”

“Oh my god, why are you lowering your head like that?!”

Yerin jumped up from her seat.

“You are the lord of the Ice Palace, so you don’t just bow your head like that!”

“No, it was a worthy achievement.”

Doyul shook his head resolutely.

“If I feel like it, I want to at least bow down.”

“No, that’s… … .”

Yerin couldn’t hide her embarrassment.

Towards his wife, Doyul lowered his eyes.

“I think accepting my wife as the matriarch of Binggung was the biggest blessing for me.”

“Well, it wasn’t that difficult… … .”

“Ma’am, please don’t do that, because I feel sorry if you lower your own merits like that.”

… … Wow, wow.

There’s no need to paint your face like this, right?

As expected, praise like that is embarrassing.

But I also felt proud.

‘Still, I think I helped Doyul a little bit, right?’

At that thought, Yerin just wiggled her toes.

Doyul scratched his cheek awkwardly.

“Well, I always end up having to say thank you to my wife.”

“Well, don’t say that. I am… … .”

Yerin, who was speechless for a moment, finished speaking in a clear voice.

“On the contrary, the palace lord is amazing.”

“… … “Me?”

“yes.”

Yerin nodded her head loudly.

“If the North Sea Ice Palace didn’t exist, all the things I did would have had no meaning, right?”

“that… … .”

“All of these things were able to shine because the palace lord has firmly supported Binggung so far.”

Yerin clenched her fists.

“So the palace lord is much greater than me.”

I meant it.

A boy who had not yet reached adulthood lost his father suddenly and inherited the North Sea Ice Palace.

So how difficult must have been the years of struggling through hardships.

Yerin didn’t even dare to imagine.

“… … .”

Doyul, who had been staring at Yerin blankly, suddenly turned his head to show her.

No, why is he talking like that all of a sudden?

Yerin looked worried once again and looked at Doyul.

“Why are you doing this? After all, is there something uncomfortable about it?”

“Well, it’s not like that.”

“Are you sure not?”

“yes. I just, I mean.”

Doyul covered his mouth with his sleeve and smiled slightly.

Both cheeks were stained red.

“… … “I’m glad you said that.”

“… … .”

and.

For a moment, Yerin opened her mouth.

I could understand why the original work praised Doyul’s beauty so much.

She just smiles shyly, but her smile is so dazzling.

“ma’am?”

Meanwhile, Doyul tilted his head as if it was strange that Yerin didn’t respond.

Even that innocent face is so cute!

‘What should I do, I want to bite it!’

She’s really pretty and cute, and she cooks it all by herself!

Yerin unconsciously clutched her chest.
