The Superior Female Lead Pampers Her Husband Without Limit

And also, he had to treat his wife even better—only then could he feel worthy of the love she gave him.

Days passed one after another. Jewel was busy every day managing the restaurant or planning their move to a new house.

Even though they had the new house now, they couldn't move in right away.

There were weeds to clear out and furniture to buy or replace.

So lately, Jewel hadn't been too involved in restaurant matters, but the house move was making her very tired.

Finally, the new house in town was all cleaned up and ready to move into.

Xavi used to exchange food and firewood every morning with their neighbor, Ansu.

But now that they were moving to town, this month-long exchange had to end.

Ansu didn't mind. In fact, he was happy for Xavi.

The next day, during the move, Ansu came over to help Xavi pack his things.

When it was time to say goodbye, Xavi was a little reluctant to part with this kind friend.

"If I ever come to town, I'll visit you. We can still talk like before."

Hearing that, Xavi nodded.

They both knew deep down that once they moved, they might never see each other again.

Everyone had their own life and responsibilities.

You had to walk your life's path alone, facing everything bravely—no one could protect you forever.

Ansu had to focus on managing his life with the Li family,

And Xavi had his own responsibilities in the Jewel household.

After a busy day, the whole Jewel family, including Bai and his young son Nian Nian, moved into their new home.

Bai had a tough life. He used to be the husband of an ordinary family. But after not having a daughter for over twenty years, and with his family struggling financially, they sold him and his son to a trafficker.

Later, because of his excellent cooking skills, Jewel noticed him and brought him into the family to help with house chores.

Whether his title was servant or not didn't matter to him.

All he wanted was to live a stable life with his son and raise Nian Nian well.

Life in the Jewel household was busy, but peaceful. They had enough to eat and wear, and Jewel even gave him some money every month to buy little things for Nian Nian. That was enough. He was grateful.

After Xavi told his wife he wanted to learn reading and accounting, Jewel bought him writing brushes, ink, paper, and inkstones, along with a pile of storybooks.

Reading books while learning characters helped him learn faster and discover new words.

Xavi practiced writing seriously every day and even solved math problems that Jewel gave him.

Simple addition and subtraction were fine, but when it came to tricky word problems, like the "chicken and rabbit in the same cage" kind, he really struggled.

He admired his wife's math skills—every time he couldn't figure something out, she solved it quickly and easily.

One day, after finishing his daily writing practice in their new home, Xavi casually picked up a thin storybook from the table.

As he read, he became completely absorbed. Sunlight filtered through the white window paper, turning soft and golden.

The light moved slowly from the west to the east side of the house, and before he knew it, the whole afternoon had passed. As the sun began to set, his mood also dropped.

By the time he finished the last page of the book, Xavi was already in tears.

At that moment, Jewel walked into the house and saw him.

"Xavi!"

She didn't think anyone would bully him at home. Why was her precious husband crying like this?

She didn't even take off her coat like she usually did. She rushed to his side.

"My little darling, why are you crying?"

She took a clean handkerchief and gently wiped the tears off his face.

Before she could pull her hand back, he threw himself into her arms and hugged her tightly.

"Wife… Wuwuwu…"

He pouted like a little duck, full of sadness.

Jewel picked him up in her arms and sat down in the big chair by the desk. Xavi curled up quietly in her lap.

She glanced at the desk and saw that the storybook she had bought was now finished.

"Xavi, did this story make you cry?"

She asked softly while holding him even tighter.

In her past life, she'd been a fast reader and had a strong reading habit. She couldn't read ten lines at once, but three was no problem.

She flipped through the book and saw a few pages where a scholar named Yang Shimei confessed to a young man named Lin Zhi. It looked like they liked each other.

Later in the book, Yang passed all three major exams and became the top scholar—very successful!

But as she kept flipping, she saw that Yang dumped Lin Zhi with hurtful words and married a prince, becoming a royal husband and enjoying wealth and power.

In the end, Yang betrayed Lin Zhi, who had supported him through all the exams. Heartbroken, Lin Zhi fell ill and passed away, never recovering.

By then, Xavi had already been sitting in her lap for a while.

Her warm hug and gentle pats calmed him down.

Jewel figured out why her little husband had been crying.

She used to cry too when reading love stories where one side was betrayed. It always felt unfair for the person who was left behind.

"Wife… in the book, Yang said such hurtful things to Lin Zhi, but then happily married the prince. The prince's husband couldn't take concubines, so Lin Zhi never got to be with Yang Shimei…"

As Xavi mumbled through his tears, Jewel sighed and thought about how to explain it.

"Well… it might have looked like Yang liked Lin Zhi at first, but she only talked a lot without doing anything meaningful. That shows Lin Zhi wasn't really important to her—he was just someone she could take or leave."
