Su Xing learns about the multi-year martial examination process. Despite the long timeline, she decides to register for the county exam to have a chance to see her parents, the King and Queen. She aims to register on the last day to avoid an unwelcome encounter.

Because Su Xin was dressed as a bride, the government officer addressed Su Xin as "this lady."

Su Xin smiled and said, "Regardless of whether it’s a waste of effort or not, I want to register, sir, please sign me up. Isn’t it true that anyone over eight and under sixty can register? I meet the requirements."

The government officer no longer discouraged her, picked up the pen, and asked, "What is your name? How old are you? Where do you live? Who is your husband? You need to explain all these clearly."

Su Xin replied, "My name is Huo Xiner, I’m eighteen, West City Tao Mansion is my home, my husband is Taoming Ye."

"West City Tao Mansion..." The government officer paused his writing, looked up and asked, "Isn’t that Minister Tao’s mansion?"

"Yes, I am Minister Tao’s eldest daughter-in-law."

The government officer immediately set down the pen, stood up, clasped his fists in respect, "So you are Minister Tao’s eldest daughter-in-law, my apologies! I heard Minister Tao’s eldest son got married, and he married the late Undefeated General Huo’s only daughter, are you her?"

Su Xin replied, "I am."

Instantly, the government officer became much more respectful, "I had the fortune to serve under Undefeated General Huo, I deeply respect General Huo. I take back what I said earlier, Miss Huo should definitely register, a tiger father doesn’t breed dogs."

Su Xin’s expression also became much more serious, and she returned the gesture of respect, "Thank you for the respect, I will certainly do my best not to disgrace my father."

After registering, Su Xin bought some date cakes on the street, as well as some leisure books to pass the time, and then returned to the Tao Mansion.

When passing by Taoming Hai’s courtyard, the door to Taoming Ye’s courtyard was open, and she could see Taoming Hai practicing martial arts in the courtyard. Su Xin glanced at him and knew immediately that Taoming Hai was nothing compared to the Martial Champion.

His skill is far inferior to hers!

Su Xin didn’t spare Taoming Hai another glance and returned to her own courtyard. As soon as she entered, she rushed towards the house and said, "Husband, I am back!"

Taoming Ye was lounging on the bed, half-asleep, but upon hearing his wife’s voice, he immediately perked up. Before he could sit up, he saw his wife rush to his side, sit on the edge of the bed, and open the small paper package in her hand like presenting a treasure, revealing a few pieces of date cake: "Look at what I’ve bought for you~ Even if you’re not hungry, you have to eat a piece, I bought it especially for you."

Taoming Ye’s eyes softened to an almost liquid tenderness, and he nodded, "Okay."

"Try some first, see if it’s sweet."

Taoming Ye took a piece of date cake, put it in his mouth, and then smiled and nodded, "Sweet."

Su Xin immediately said, "Our days will be this sweet and pleasant in the future~"

"Yes." Taoming Ye’s smile grew even softer.

Su Xin smiled directly at Taoming Ye. She had been married to her husband for over a month, and their relationship was genuinely good. But there was still the issue, her husband’s health was too poor. He spent most of his time indoors.

Seeing Hong Ye come in carrying the leisure books she had bought, Su Xin patted the small table on the kang bed and said, "Put the books here."

Hong Ye immediately placed all the books on it.

Su Xin grinned at Taoming Ye, "I have registered, you see, no matter how spacious our courtyard is, it’s not convenient for me to practice the martial arts exam subjects. Luckily, my family’s mansion has a large training ground, which was set up when my father was first appointed General. I should be regularly going back to practice, so I can’t always accompany you. These books are for you to read to pass the time, I’ll buy more for you later, but today just these."
