My Beloved Super Fierce Wife-Chapter 228: Are the little girl’s hands soft and smooth?
Chapter 228: Are the little girl’s hands soft and smooth?
After going out, Lin Fu shook his head, his tone filled with anger,
"... The people from the Grain Station are becoming unbearable, squabbling with two kids without a sense of shame."
How could a cadre behave like this?
"Hmph, who knows what they’ll turn into in the future? I refuse to believe they can keep up this arrogance forever!" Li Jiancai replied fiercely.
Lin Tang’s eyes flashed, the corners of her mouth curling up slightly, "Good and evil will eventually be repaid, just wait and see, they won’t be able to remain complacent for much longer."
Once the one at the top falls, how can these jumping clowns beneath continue to strut?
They’re just grasshoppers at the end of autumn.
Lin Lu didn’t understand his daughter’s meaning, thinking she was just feeling indignant for the siblings, and he sighed.
"When the forest grows, all kinds of birds will flock to it; encountering such people is inevitable."
His daughter had just entered society and had seen little of its darkness; it was normal for her to feel tumultuous inside.
Unlike them who had lived more than half their lives and had seen their fair share of darkness and shadows.
Lin Tang smiled and changed the subject, "Uncle, Dad, are you planning to head back now?"
The men from the village expressed their intention to return.
"We will be heading back now..."
There’s nothing to do in the county, and returning to the village feels more reassuring.
Meanwhile, a group of kids were visibly disappointed.
But they were sensible and did not make a fuss.
The mischievous kids from the Lin Family weren’t worried, as they had heard from Goudan that Aunt Tangtang was going to take them to recognize their ancestry.
Lin Fu had known beforehand that Lin Tang planned to take Shuanzi to recognize his ancestry this morning, so he addressed the crowd: "Jiancai, you take the other members back first and let them know the situation to ease their minds.
I’ll go with Tangtang to acknowledge the ancestry, take Shuanzi with us, and along the way, we can also visit Qingmu."
The villagers didn’t think much of it, as Shuanzi and Qingmu were indeed close friends, so visiting was nothing out of the ordinary.
"Alright, then we’ll head back now," Li Jiancai said.
The young boys from the village looked at Goudan and the other Lin Family children with envy.
Once everything was settled, the groups went their separate ways.
Now, let’s talk about Lin Tang’s side of things.
After about fifteen minutes, a group of people arrived at the courtyard where Lin Tang lived.
Once they had confirmed the time and place to deliver vegetables with Shuanzi, the elders from the Lin Family took Shuanzi and Goudan back to the village.
From that day on, the second and third households of the Lin Family began to covertly sell vegetables in the county.
A week went by in a flash.
Today, Friday, Lin Tang and others were always excited because it was the day they returned home.
But today was different, Lin Tang had other plans.
She made up a casual excuse about wanting to hang out with Qingqing and Xiaoyun, saying she would return home tomorrow. After sending Ning Xinrou and Lin Xiaojing away, Lin Tang sneaked off to the black market.
She was considering buying a bicycle for the family, to make it easier for her sister-in-law to commute daily.
Lin Tang didn’t want to live separately from her sister-in-law; she just thought that her brother and sister-in-law shouldn’t be apart for too long, as it might affect their marital relationship.
Wanting to buy a bicycle, she had the coupons, but she was a bit short on cash.
A bicycle cost at least a hundred and sixty.
Lin Tang only had ninety-two and was still short a considerable amount, so she intended to sell some items to make up the difference.
She made her way to the black market, a route she now knew well.
The location of the black market had changed once again, now even more secluded.
There seemed to be fewer people than the last couple of times she had visited.
Lin Tang brought a few silk scarves, some bars of soap, a pair of pork trotters, and other scarce goods, which she quickly sold and got seventy yuan and a stack of coupons in exchange.
Just as she tucked away the money,
she turned and bumped into someone.
The man was very tall,
Lin Tang only came up to his chest.
The impact was quite strong; she felt a bit dazed.
Lin Tang, holding her head, took two steps back,
and then heard a familiar, deep voice.
"Sorry."
The voice was melodious, with a unique timbre that was unforgettable.
Lin Tang’s eyes brightened, she lifted her filthy and masked face, her voice sweet,
"Comrade Gu?"
Gu Yingzhou was startled, his deep pupils suddenly narrowed, and a shock appeared on his cold face.
Furrowed brow.
"...Comrade Lin? What are you doing here?"
Lin Tang saw that there was not the slightest guise on the man’s face, and wordlessly twitched the corner of her mouth.
She pretended to take out a black face mask from the bag.
"Whatever your purpose here is, mine is the same. This is a mask, put it on quickly, just in case," Lin Tang opened the mask, gestured with it, and whispered.
Gu Yingzhou obediently accepted it and copied her by putting the mask on his face.
The handsome face was covered by the black mask.
It did not make him look like an ordinary passerby, but rather added a hint of mysterious charm to his appearance.
Lin Tang was silent, "..." A miscalculation!
Gu Yingzhou noticed her strange expression and asked in confusion, "What’s wrong? Is there something not right with me?"
Suddenly, a panicked voice came from the doorway.
"Someone’s coming, run!"
The people inside, hearing this, instantly changed their expressions.
They frantically gathered their belongings and headed for the other exit.
Lin Tang heard the voice and instantly reacted.
She grabbed Gu Yingzhou’s hand and quickly ran with the crowd.
In critical moments, people can even break through their physical limits.
Those from the black market seemed particularly experienced, scattering in all directions once outside.
Lin Tang, holding Gu Yingzhou’s hand, ran fast, and before long, they disappeared from sight.
After running for what seemed like forever, Lin Tang finally stopped.
She yanked off the mask on her face, breathing heavily with her mouth slightly open.
She felt like she was about to run out of breath.
"...We should be safe now," Lin Tang said, panting.
Today had been like turning over a boat in a ditch.
All of Gu Yingzhou’s attention was captured by the hand holding his.
Are all young girls’ hands like this?
So soft and smooth, like the finest white jade.
It made one...reluctant to let go.
Gu Yingzhou suddenly came back to his senses and hurriedly withdrew his hand.
He turned his body to the side and cleared his throat uncomfortably, his ears blushing red.
"Ahem...sorry."
While speaking, he clenched his hand into a fist and held it to his thin lips.
A sweet yet not cloying fragrance assaulted his nostrils.
The man was jolted and hurriedly lowered his hand.
The night was hazy, with the early summer moon shining brightly.
The cool moonlight filtered through the branches above and fell on the ground.
Two shadows stretched long.
The air suddenly turned quiet, as if awkwardness was spreading all around.
In the moonlight, Lin Tang saw the redness on Gu Yingzhou’s ears and blinked a few times, full of surprise.
Ah ha?
Comrade Gu is feeling shy?!
All because she accidentally held his hand?
That is just too too...cute!!
Lin Tang’s eyes sparkled, she stood with her hands behind her back, leaned in, and with a hint of laughter in her voice, asked,
"Comrade Gu, are you feeling shy?"
Boom boom boom—
It was as if there were rumblings of thunder in his head.
Gu Yingzhou’s normally clear mind was in turmoil, and it took a while for him to find his voice again.
"...Comrade Lin," his voice was low and husky.
After a moment, he managed to suppress the turmoil in his heart, and said in a deep voice, "It’s getting late; I’ll take you back."
His expression was steady, as if nothing could shake him, yet the redness on his ear had spread down his neck.
Lin Tang chuckled softly, jokingly said, "Oh? Comrade Gu, you’re offering to take me home?"
Having said that, without waiting for Gu Yingzhou to speak, she continued, "Ok, let’s go."
