Chapter 113 - 113

Chapter 113 My heart aches for poor Jiang Rong!The sturdy iron gate was pulled open by the person inside. His handsome face paired with his nonchalant expression didn't seem out of place at all."Sister! You're back!"Lin Yu exclaimed in surprise and excitedly hugged him.His gaze drifted to the stylish woman in the leather jacket. "And who is this lady?"Jiang Qinian: "She's my mom!"Jiang Rong, who was initially feeling down, beamed with joy upon hearing the word "sister." "Hahahaha! Little brother, you're so good with words, I'm almost embarrassed!"Lin Yu scratched her head awkwardly, "Hahaha, it's Auntie! Please come in."Seeing that Lin Yu hadn't returned yet, Gu Chencame out of the house. " Sister Ranran! You're back!"He strode forward, smiling gently, " Brother Jiang!"Jiang Qinian nodded. This child was much more polite than Lin Yu; at least he knew that men and women should not touch each other.Jiang Rong popped his head out from behind Lin Anran, " Ranran! Is this also your younger brother?"Lin Anran smiled and nodded. "Yes! This is my younger brother, Gu Chen. Chen, and this is..."Hello, sister!Gu Chen had a knowing look on his face, and his little tiger teeth looked especially cute when he smiled.The two of them kept calling her "sister," which delighted Jiang Rong. "Oh my! Little brother, you're quite the talker! I'm Xiao Nian's mother!"Gu Chen:!!!"Hello, Auntie!"Father Lin When Mother Lin heard her beloved daughter return from inside, she immediately dropped her tools and rushed out, where she witnessed this scene.Jiang Rong looked back and greeted them familiarly, "Big brother! Sister-in-law, hello! I'm Xiao Nian's mother. I'm so sorry to have troubled you all before! This brat must have caused you a lot of trouble!"Mother Lin quickly waved her hand, "No, no! A-Nian is very reliable, we rely on him for many things!"Father Lin chuckled and said, "Yes! We're all family, no need for formalities."Jiang Rong's face lit up with joy. "Big brother is right. I never thought that Ranran would actually fall for my brat. I don't know what kind of good fortune I've accumulated over my past lives."The two sides went back and forth, flattering each other, which made Lin Anran's head spin.Hearing the conversation turn to wedding arrangements, Lin Anran quickly interrupted, "Dad! I'm hungry! We haven't eaten all the way here, and I miss your sweet and sour pork!"Father Lin slapped his forehead. "Look, we've been so busy chatting. Come on in, I'll go cook. Xiao Wan will show you around."After saying that, he hurriedly went into the kitchen, followed by his three familiar little helpers.Mother Lin smiled gently and said, "Mrs. Jiang, let me show you your room first.""Don't be so formal, sister-in-law. My name isJiang Rong, you can just call me sister!""Okay! Then call her 'girl'."The villa was already large; Mother Lin tidied it up, and Father Lin... Mother Lin's room and Jiang Rong's room are on the second floor, while the four young people's rooms are all on the third floor.Everything in the room has been changed and prepared.Jiang Rong looked at the cozy room with surprise and tears welling up in her eyes.Mother Lin asked anxiously, "How is it, little sister? Is there something you don't like? I'll revise it for you.""No, no, sister-in-law, I'm just so touched. I haven't slept in such a comfortable place in so long, I'm a little teary-eyed!"Hearing this, Mother Lin patted her trembling shoulder sympathetically, "Don't worry, little sister, this is your home. From now on, we are all family.""Yes! Thank you, sister-in-law."The three of them walked around the villa. Jiang Rong stared curiously at the windows that were sealed with iron plates. "Sister-in-law, why did you seal the windows? Zombies shouldn't be able to get in here, right?""Oh dear! That's not to protect against zombies, it's to protect against extreme weather."Jiang Rong was filled with admiration. "You guys are amazing! You even thought of this! Preventing problems before they occur."Mother Lin smiled; it seemed Ranran and the others hadn't told her what had happened before."Dinner's ready! Come wash your hands and eat!"Father Lin carried a large bowl of braised chicken to the dining table, pinching his ears with his hot fingers as he greeted the chatting group.Jiang Rong ate the meal with tears in his eyes, and the others at the table looked on with pity as he wolfed down his food.Jiang Qinian wanted to explain, but he didn't know where to begin. He was afraid that if he told his mother the reason, she would hold him accountable.After all, if you keep saying you're going to lose weight but don't succeed, and you still can't eat what you want, you'd definitely want to cry.He sighed and silently ate his rice.In the evening, Father Lin Mother Lin lay in bed.Mother Lin: "Honey~ Look at Jiang Meizi, she cried like that when she saw her room, even while eating. She's so pitiful. People must have bullied her before!"Father Lin: "Yes! She said she was fine, probably because she didn't want us to worry. Take her out for a walk tomorrow to help her forget about the sad things that happened before.""Alright, leave this to me!"Suddenly, Jiang Qinian and Lin Anran went to bed separately, and Lin Anran experienced a sleepless night."Ha~"Lin Anran yawned widely, looking at her dark circles in the mirror."That shouldn't be! Why am I having insomnia?""Sis! Dinner's ready!""They're here!"Lin Anran came downstairs, and everyone was sitting at the dining table, chatting and laughing.Jiang Rong looked at Lin Anran with affection, "Ranran, you're up? Oh dear! What happened to your dark circles? Did you stay up late last night?""Auntie! Good morning! No, I just had trouble sleeping last night."Father Lin tenderly brought a cup of hot milk from the kitchen. "Have you been having trouble sleeping? I'll heat up a cup of hot milk for you tonight.""Okay! I love you the most, Dad.""Cough cough!""And Mom too! Hahahaha.""Ding-dong! Ding-dong!"The person was still outside when the loud voice came in."Auntie! Uncle! Are you home? I've come to bring you warmth!"Lin Yu opened the door, turned around and walked into the house. " Xie Nan, coming to visit so early in the morning, did your dog nose smell something delicious?""What? I've come to bring you warmth. Yesterday, my brother and I went out on a mission and found a shop full of brand-name silk quilts. It was probably closed before the apocalypse, so the zombies didn't go in."We searched around and found no one, so we brought the things back. And here we are, the first thing we did was to bring you some warmth, and you still called me a dog with a nose.Although my uncle's cooking is indeed delicious, it's not like we're missing out on another meal!As he spoke, he followed him into the house."Hmm? We have a guest! Hello, beautiful lady, I'm your neighbor Xie Nan."Jiang Rong nodded with a big smile, "Hello! Handsome guy!"Good heavens! Have all the kids here eaten candy? They all have such sweet mouths!Lin Yu whispered a few words in Xie Nan's ear, and Xie Nan looked up in disbelief."Really?""Uh-huh!""Oh, it's you, Auntie! You look so young!"He sat down and casually picked up a steamed bun from the table and started eating."Mmm~ These juicy little buns are so delicious!"
