Chapter 411 A man disguised as a woman
Fu Ling took another sip of the hot soup awkwardly, but unable to resist the burning gazes of the crowd, she cleared her throat and continued.
"Well, I was robbed of everything, so I had no money to return, so I discussed with the escort leader to return to Zhouzhou first. We walked for two days and left Xunzhou. It was cold, and the escorts didn't catch any prey. I was starving. Just when I was about to chew on tree bark, a group of people passed by."
When Fu's father heard this, he felt so distressed that he quickly took a few more pieces of meat from the pot and put them in her bowl.
"I was originally going to ask for some food to see if I could borrow some money, but I didn't expect the person sitting in the carriage to recognize me and say he was Sister Gu's brother."
"Sister Gu? Are you talking about the woman who came back with you last time?"
"Yes, it was her. She said he was her brother, so I took her car and went to Guiyang City. Later, she lent me money so I could come back. I didn't expect that Sister Gu had a brother. Sister Gu really hid it from me."
Although she calls her Sister Gu, she is actually two years younger than her.
Lan Yi, who was sitting at the next table, had a look of doubt in her eyes. She remembered that Lan Qi had nagged her before, suspecting that the woman Fu Ling brought back was a man.
Since they are all martial artists, both sides will definitely pay more attention to each other.
The woman was quite skilled in martial arts, and she didn't notice anything wrong, but Lan Qi insisted that his intuition told him.
This is a man dressed as a woman.
Just when Lan Qi was about to test further, the woman followed Fu Ling to Nanshan and never came back, and the matter was left unresolved.
Since there was no actual conclusion, I didn't tell the lady about it.
Now hearing what Fu Ling said, it reminded her of this matter again.
Lin Jiaojiao was a little confused when she heard this. "You said you didn't even know Sister Gu had a brother, so how did her brother recognize you?"
Fu Ling's face turned red again. She raised her hand, clenched her fist against her mouth and coughed twice before she stammered.
"Mr. Gu said he had seen my portrait."
Fu Qi suddenly realized, "That means Sister Gu wanted to introduce you to her brother, so she showed him your portrait."
Fu Ling felt even more embarrassed, "Is that so..."
Fu's mother patted Fu Ling's shoulder and said excitedly: "You have made a good friend. I think Gu girl is pretty, and her brother must be good too."
Fu Ling's face turned even redder. Not wanting to continue this topic, she quickly buried her head and started eating.
After dinner, the card game continued.
Lin Yiyan and Fu Qi first went to the warm kang room to feed the children. The fathers changed the children's diapers, and then they took the children to the entertainment room.
Lin Jiaojiao took over Lin Yiyan's position. She could clearly feel that Lan Jiu was giving her a break so that she wouldn't lose too badly.
She discovered in the afternoon that Lan Jiu was a very good card player and was also knowledgeable about the ways of the world. He had let off the three people at the table without anyone noticing.
Before dinner, she quietly asked if he had practiced secretly, but it turned out that he just understood the secret after watching it many times.
Now her three husbands were sitting behind her, each holding a child and watching her play. Lan Jiu didn't let her off and beat her until she was sweating profusely.
Lin Yizhi joked, "Brother, my wife has almost lost all your beans."
Lin Yiyan took her hair from Lin Xiayou's hand and looked at the beans placed under Lin Jiaojiao's table.
"It's okay. It doesn't matter if Jiaojiao loses everything."
Lin Jiaojiao felt a lot of pressure being watched by so many people, and spoke awkwardly.
"Let's end this round. Let's let Big Brother play. I'll just be abused if I go on stage."
Qiu Xilan would not miss such a good opportunity. Before Lin Jiaojiao came, she was always at the bottom.
"That won't work. It will take at least an hour, right?"
Before Lin Jiaojiao could say anything, her hair was suddenly pulled back, causing her scalp to hurt.
"Which little rascal is pulling my hair?"
Everyone sitting behind her saw her head tilted back, and also saw the strand of hair that Lin Xiayou was holding in her hand.
Lin Yiyan hurriedly rescued her hair and educated her while doing so.
"Xia You, you can't play with hair. If you do that, daddy will spank your hands."
Lin Xiayou certainly didn't understand, but when she saw that the things in her hand were gone again, she immediately burst into tears, and her crying directly led the two people next to her to cry loudly too.
Lin Jiaojiao quickly turned around and put the hair back into Lin Xiayou's hand and coaxed her.
"Xia You, don't cry. Look what you are holding in your hand. Is it mother's hair?"
Her hair was back in her hands and Lin Xiayou stopped crying, leaving only two bean-sized tears hanging in the corners of her eyes.
The other two little ones also stopped crying, and were amused by Lin Fei and Zhang Lianyu, who heard their crying and ran over to make faces at them.
Lin Yiyan looked at Lin Jiaojiao who was playing cards with her head tilted in front of him and smiled helplessly.
"Jiaojiao, just spoil her."
Lin Jiaojiao endured the discomfort on her scalp and said as she touched the cards, "Just spoil him now. Wait until he can understand what I say in a few months. If he acts naughty, I'll punish him."
After hearing this, Lin Yizhi picked up Lin Dongyi and held his little face close to his, speaking in a hoarse voice.
"If mother takes care of my sister, she won't be able to take care of Dong Yi anymore."
Fu Qi also imitated and said: "Even if mother can deal with my sister, she can't deal with Le Xing anymore."
The two little ones responded with babbling sounds, which made everyone at the table laugh, Lin Dadan said jokingly.
"Don't be afraid, Xia Youdong and Yi Lexing. Your mother is just talking, but she definitely won't bear to punish you."
Lin Jiaojiao laughed and retorted, "If you don't obey, you won't be able to stop being lawless when you grow up."
Although she always said that she wanted to be a strict mother, she was very soft-hearted and could do nothing when the child cried.
Instead, Lin Yiyan became the strictest among them.
Qiu Xilan looked at the cards in his hand and sighed.
"I'm so envious. I want to clean up but my kids don't have time to do it."
As soon as he finished speaking, he got slapped on the back.
"Qiu Xilan, what are you talking about?"
Qiu Xilan also realized that she had said the wrong thing. Song Jiajia had been extremely anxious about getting pregnant these days, and these words would only add fuel to the fire.
"Wrong, wrong..."
When the sound of firecrackers rang out in Linjia Village, it heralded the beginning of the new year.
Everyone left the mahjong table and went outside. The babies were already asleep, so they didn't bring them out for fear that the sound of firecrackers would scare them.
After setting off firecrackers and sky lanterns, everyone went home to rest.
Lin Jiaojiao was so comfortable soaking in the bathtub that she almost fell asleep. It was only when Lan Jiu called her from outside the screen that she reluctantly got up from the bathtub.
She put on her pajamas, yawned, and walked out from behind the screen, looking at the dark red scarf around Lan Jiu's neck.
"Why don't you wear the clothes I gave you?"
Lan Jiu took her hand and led her to sit in front of the dressing table, then took a handkerchief and wiped her hair.
"I wear it during the day."
Lin Jiaojiao looked at the figure in the mirror. After returning from Nanshan, her relationship with Lan Jiu had become very subtle.
Neither of them made it clear to each other, but they both understood each other's intentions.
"Miss, I'm fine."
After he finished speaking, he turned around, took the cloak from the hanger and put it on her, tying the belt at the collar as he spoke.
"The husbands have gone to the heated room and are waiting for the young lady."
Tonight she sleeps with her husband and children and celebrates the New Year together.
She lowered her eyes and stared at his trembling eyelashes. She slowly raised her hand and touched his cheek. He smiled and raised his eyes to look at her, his thin lips slightly parted.
"Happy New Year, miss."
