Chapter 117 Going to the Next Yard
My mother was there with my father, looking at the words that he had mentioned at different times over the past few years.
Xiao Jue didn't want to disturb his parents from reminiscing about the past. After exchanging a few words with his mother, he insisted on leaving.
Qin was a little surprised when she saw this, but she heard her son suddenly ask, "Mother... I heard that a new family moved in next door... How is this family? Have you been around them more?"
It's more than just walking!
Xiao Jue didn't expect that these words would stir up a hornet's nest. Qin immediately walked over from beside Marquis Jingyuan upon hearing this.
She spoke earnestly, looking relieved, and couldn't wait to speak: "Chang Xiu... You don't know, since that family moved in, your mother and I have become much more interesting!
Not only did the family often invite me to sit with them and help me relieve my boredom, but they also brought me a portion of the prepared food whenever they had time for me to try.
She is indeed a good girl... good-looking, kind-hearted, good in every way... but..."
At this point, Qin suddenly changed the subject, with a trace of heartache on her face, "…Such a good child has a miserable life. She has to live with the children by herself, without even an elder around her. She has suffered so much at such a young age."
Having said this, Qin sighed and shook her head.
Xiao Jue was very satisfied, and he just listened and watched quietly without interrupting.
He knew that his Ah Cai was a girl who was loved by everyone and anyone who spent time with her would fall in love with her.
Thinking of this, he suddenly stood up and said, "Mother, since the girl next door is taking such good care of you, I will go over there now and thank her."
After leaving these words, Xiao Jue walked out.
But Qin behind him suddenly called out, "Wait! Changxiu, you don't have to go through the main gate. Miss Lin opened a small door between the walls of our two houses two years ago. You can go directly to their house through that small door. It's very close..."
Xiao Jue: ???
It’s really unexpected!
"You even opened a small door on purpose?"
For some reason, when he heard that Lin Acai had specially opened a small door between the two courtyard walls, he felt secretly happy.
He really didn't expect that his Ah Cai could do things so to his liking. This door was really a great idea and he liked it very much.
"Okay mom... son got it."
As he spoke, Xiao Jue moved quickly and soon he really found the small door.
There was no lock or bolt on the door. He pushed it gently and the door opened.
It was just a wall between them, and he only took a few more steps, but he instantly felt refreshed and in high spirits.
He came back in such a hurry that he hadn't even had time to change his clothes. He was still wearing the same military uniform that she had seen him in when they met again in the daytime.
But he couldn't wait any longer. When he thought about seeing Ah Cai, whom he had been thinking about day and night, again, he couldn't close his mouth anymore.
As a result, when Xiao Jue was walking forward with anticipation on his face, someone suddenly stood up and blocked his way!
That person was none other than Bai Jing.
He looked at the prince with a constipated expression, exhausted, and gritted his teeth to stop him: "Master...why don't we go back first...you should have a good rest today, and come back tomorrow when you are fully rested. There is no need to rush at all."
"Stop making noise...get out of the way!"
Xiao Jue chose to ignore it with a sullen face!
He was in a good mood, but this kid ruined it all.
But Bai Jing still refused to move after hearing this.
Xiao Jue: ...
"Get out of the way!!!"
Seeing that the prince was really angry, Bai Jing gritted his teeth and reluctantly stretched out his arms. Not only did he not take a step back, but he took a step forward.
Then, he glanced at the room where the Lin family was with a resentful look, and turned back: "Master, if you really want to listen to my advice, just go back..."
......
On the other side, seeing Bai Jing looking at her not far away, the royal sister who had been hiding in the dark immediately retracted her head.
The girl told her to keep an eye on this man. At the moment, no one knew what this man was talking to his master, and she couldn't hear clearly because they were too far away.
No matter what, it would be right for her to inform the girl first.
"Sister Yu...did you see clearly? Did Deputy General Bai really block his master outside?"
Lin Acai deliberately used the excuse of changing clothes to hide in the quiet inner room with Yu Jie.
"That's right, girl... it's just that we were too far away, I didn't hear what they were talking about, and I don't know why that man stopped his master from coming in."
When the royal sister said this, she slowly lowered her head, obviously feeling guilty for not finding out the reason.
"It's okay... I already know what to do. Just go outside and cook dinner first."
"Okay girl."
As soon as the royal sister walked out of the house, Lin Acai randomly found a piece of clothes to change into, glanced in the direction of the outer room, and frowned anxiously.
Right now, the atmosphere in the outer room was very depressing.
After seeing Xiao Tangxin, his father, elder brother, and grandfather all remained silent and had to face the problem.
The soldiers who had gone south returned to the capital one after another, but there was no news about the second girl's husband. It went without saying that he must have met with a terrible disaster and died on the battlefield.
It is such a happy event for the whole family to be together, but what is happening now?
My second daughter became a widow before she even got married? !
Besides complaints, what I feel more is heartache.
My poor Acai...
As a result, Lin Acai gritted her teeth and pushed open the door to the inner room. She saw her cheap father looking at her with tears in his eyes.
"…My poor Ah Cai, please don't be sad, you must be well. The dead cannot be resurrected, so don't be depressed."
"Dad... I am an unfilial daughter and have made you worry with me. Since I chose him three years ago, I have already made the worst-case scenario plan. So, whether he is dead or alive, I will live well. If not for anything else, I will be strong just for Tang Xin..."
The more Lin Acai spoke, the more choked up her voice became and her eyes became red.
She tried her best and put on this act with all her might, and finally made her cheap dad nod with satisfaction and stop persuading her.
"..."
OMG…
It's so hard for me!
People really shouldn't lie easily. Once they tell a lie, they will have to use countless lies to cover it up.
"Huai'an... now that things have come to this, you should be more careful to find another decent family and settle down the second girl for the rest of her life. This is the most important thing to do. Don't worry about other things anymore."
As he spoke, Grandpa Lin slowly refilled his pipe and looked at his son and granddaughter in front of him.
When Lin Acai heard this, her heart, which had just calmed down, suddenly skipped a beat and she became restless again.
No, what's the matter? From what I said, I still need to find another home for her???
Isn’t this noisy!
Thinking of this, Lin Acai panicked, but did not refute out loud. Instead, she cleverly said something else to directly change the subject.
Then she talked about how she and her stepfather persuaded his grandfather to go into the house in the backyard to rest.
Just send the person away!
