A chance encounter (2)

in, so thin that her ribs were faintly visible.She was unclothed, her entire body pale as death, covered in patches of lividity on her back and waist. There were also some faint black marks on her bod..."Dabao said that he used to study in the Imperial Capital, which made my brother look at him with admiration: 'You're actually a top student'"

"Oh, definitely! I'm a high-achieving dropout from a less prestigious university, haha. During my two years studying in the Imperial City, I was always getting into trouble. You know, I remember it all clearly. First, I'll go pay my respects to the bigwigs and then be right back!"

He tidied up and went out with Lao Su.

Grandma lived in the east room with the two babies. A whole bunch of baby supplies were shipped over. Yu and Younan, the two little dumplings, had gotten plumper in just a few days. I held them and showered them with kisses.

Grandma said with a sneer, "These two kids are so easy to take care of! Your dad even said to hire a nanny. A nanny can't compare to a family member who loves their children. I couldn't bear to let someone else raise them!"

"...Dad's worried about you being tired," I explained with a smile.

"What a handful! He really wore me out when he was little. Compared to him, Yu Gui and You Nan are practically angels! My sweet little darling..." Grandma hugged Yu Gui and patted her, then went to hug You Nan and nuzzle her cheek.

Grandma was a huge help. She's very skilled at taking care of kids and is so loving towards them, she treats them like her own.

"This wouldn't happen if it were an ordinary family. If the other children's father didn't show up, they would have divorced by now." My brother walked in and smiled, picking up Yu Gui.

"Hey hey, you're being biased! Why do you hug Yu Gui but not You Nan" I complained in a fake huff.

My brother laughed and said, "Who told you to have twins at once How many hands do we have to carry them all Why don't you bring two on your back I'll carry them out to get some sun."

He was joking, but my grandma immediately said: "Great! Just right, I can't carry two of them. Twin baby carriages can't get on a plane, and I'm worried about it! This doorway is too narrow, it won't fit a twin stroller! Why don't you carry me out for some sun"

My brother was stunned. My grandma always favors daughters over sons — who can blame her when there are so few girls in the family

She really took two of those backpack-style carriers with seats and strapped Yu Gui and You Nan to my brother.

"Go on, Fan'er, remember to move around and get an even tan." Grandma patted my brother's arm.

I laughed so hard I was squatting on the ground. My brother lowered his head to look at Yu Gui in his arms, gently squeezing her little hand and saying, "Little ancestor, when you grow up, remember to kiss your uncle, okay You see how much your uncle loves you, he always holds you in his arms."

My grandmother said seriously, “Yunan needs to get some sunshine too!”

"Yes, yes, yes!" My older brother walked out with gritted teeth.

He thought that since there was no one else at home, he didn't have to worry about this look. Who knew, however, that an "accident" would happen soon!

I was helping my grandma tidy up the babies' clothes when I heard laughter coming from outside.

Lin Yanqin happened to run over. She saw my brother carrying two children turning in the small courtyard, and laughed so hard she squatted down holding onto a stone table.

My brother crossed his arms and laughed, “Laugh, you laugh again! I swear you won’t be able to celebrate Mother’s Day next year if you keep laughing!”

Wow!!!

"Great! Great! I support you!" I stuck my head out of the room and held up my hands in support.

My brother has the ability to subdue Ms. Lin with a single word.

Lin Yanqin crouched there, her face flushed red as blood, but the smile on her lips couldn't be suppressed. She was shyly in love.

In her life, she had probably never met a man who dared to speak to her like this.

Furthermore, this man has the ability to turn all his words into love words.

"Don't talk too much," my brother said with a smile, glaring at me. "Back in the day, older brothers were eager to marry off their younger sisters, but now you're desperately trying to push your older brother out the door. What's the meaning of this Don't you want to cook for me anymore"

I laughed and said, "Yan Qin has learned a lot of dishes. Have her cook for you."

“Forget it, this young lady is better off being spoiled. Come hug me, I'm so hot.” He said to Lin Yanqin.

Lin Yanqin carefully untied Younan, and the two of them sat on a stone bench with the child, basking in the sun.

She squeezed Younan's little toes: "This little baby looks just like his father! My goodness, those eyes are exactly the same..."

"What a load of rubbish, he doesn't take after his father at all. This is the real deal." My brother scoffed.

I was sorting baby supplies inside when my grandmother whispered, "Will Fan and this Ms. Lin work out Should we start preparing the dowry"

"Well...the woman's family isn't short on money." I replied.

"You still have to prepare, it's a matter of attitude." Grandma said seriously.

I didn't tell Grandma that we're actually working so hard preparing a "dowry," but this "dowry" is extraordinary.

When it was almost time for dinner, Lin Yanhuan called Lin Yanzhi. Lin Yanzhi didn't want to leave and begged me through the phone while covering the receiver. I became the scapegoat again!

I awkwardly "hello-ed," the other end of the phone was silent for a moment, then a low chuckle came through.

"Xiao Qiao, are you asking for favors from Yan Qin again" Lin Yanhua asked with a smile.

"......Is there any use in me begging for mercy" I said helplessly, "We're about to have dinner, she was just learning how to cook..."

"You pleading is useful, who told you I owe you a favor" he said with a light chuckle.

I feel a little guilty, I saved Lin Yanhuan not because I wanted his gratitude. In that situation, I would have saved anyone.

But Lin Yanhuan trusted me because of this, always offering help, and even some unusual fondness. I could only keep hiding and not responding, feeling a little guilty in my heart.

I blurted out, "Would you like to come over and eat with us We made a lot of dishes."

I thought he wouldn't come, who knew he paused for a moment and said: "Okay, save me a set of chopsticks... I should be there in forty minutes."

"...Okay."

I'm a little amused and bewildered. When I told my brother that Lin Yanhuan was coming to dinner, he chuckled while chewing on a cucumber and said: "Come on, the more the merrier! Even a prince needs to understand the hardships of common people."

Before Lin Yanhuan arrived, Dabao came back first. He pulled me to the corridor and whispered, "I burned a lot of paper money. The Land God said that the City God here is very powerful, many ghosts have been punished by him severely, but... he also shows favoritism obviously. I think it's best not to conflict with him for now..."

If there's no conflict, it won't work! He's protecting Zhu Weiti after all.

"Little Lady, a colleague whispered to me: unless the Emperor himself comes, no one puts the City God in their eyes... You have to be careful acting here," Dabao said worriedly.

I nodded. In both the yin and yang realms, only those with power could speak.

We waited for a while, and Lin Yanhuan arrived. His face didn't look good because a woman was tightly holding onto his arm.

Qi Ke Xin.

She glared at me, her eyes burning with fury. Through gritted teeth, she hissed, "Well, well, look who it is~ Miss Mu."he biggest plot of land first. The area behind and beside it is still a large undeveloped zone.There's a pond and high-voltage transmission towers here, so the school is fenced off with barbed wire an...
