40.§§040 It's rare to be coquettish

Outside the tall building, the night is drunk.

Xiao always stood in front of the window, looking out the window at the night scene with neon lights flashing like a starry night.

The mobile phone in the hand is still "...... Honk...... ......", he dialed Mrs. Han's residential landline. Although this time period is relatively late, it should not make the other party feel rude.

After waiting for a few more seconds, Mrs. Han finally picked up the phone.

"Brother Xiao."

Very calm and steady but loving voice, but Xiao always heard a trace of anxious feelings from it.

It's incredible to make this lady anxious.

While thinking like this, Mr. Xiao greeted: "I still bother you so late, please forgive me for being rude, Mrs. Han." ”

"Where, why does Brother Xiao have to see the outside like this."

They have been friends for more than 30 years, but since she married into the Han family, they have been in contact with each other relatively rarely.

It is not easy for a woman's family to be in charge of such a large family, and she has to take care of the spiritual exterminator cultivation under her door, unless there is really an emergency, Xiao Zong rarely talks to her on the phone.

She was indeed very busy, so there was a little apology in Mr. Xiao's tone.

Thanks again to Ling Lang for his help, Manning said that the matter was resolved satisfactorily. And I have a feeling that after this incident, Manning's personality has also changed, and it is all due to Ling Lang. ”

"The dog didn't disappoint you, so I'm relieved."

"Where, where, how can you be disappointed!" Mr. Xiao smiled at the phone, "When Ling Lang gets married, I will definitely send the company's artists to cheer for the show!" ”

On the other end of the phone, Mrs. Han covered her mouth and smiled: "That's really brilliant." Thanks to Brother Xiao's kindness, it's a bit too early to talk about the dog's marriage now. ”

Mr. Xiao also smiled: "It's just a matter of two or three years!" has such a cute fiancée, presumably Ling Lang also wants to get married early! ”

On the other end of the phone, Mrs. Han's voice hesitated: "...... Whose fiancée did Brother Xiao say? ”

Mr. Xiao was stunned: "Naturally, it's Ling Lang's!" He paused, trying to think about why Mrs. Han asked this, considering the position of the Han family, and then thought of an answer for himself, and laughed again:

"I see, you want to hide it, and you don't want to reveal it to the outside world too soon. You can rest assured, I will also strictly order the company's artists to keep their mouths shut. ”

“…… Brother Xiao. On the other end of the phone, Mrs. Han, who was confused, smiled bitterly.

"Don't worry, with our old friendship for so many years, this matter will definitely be handled for you!" As soon as he talked about the children, Mr. Xiao remembered his five-year-old granddaughter who immigrated to the United States, and the words began to increase: "But don't delay this matter for too long, even if the children are not in a hurry, you should think about it for yourself." Look at me, I'm all grandfathers, don't you want to hug your grandson? ”

“……”

"I look very good at that girl, and I can see that Ling Lang also likes her very much, and he holds her in the palm of his hand all the time, which reminds me of when I was young, haha. The combination of the two of them will definitely give birth to a very good baby! ”

…… The farther and farther it goes.

Mrs. Han on the other end of the phone couldn't laugh anymore.

Before answering the phone from Mr. Xiao, she was talking to her sister-in-law on the phone, and she was also in a hurry, asking about the prescription, but when Mrs. Han asked who was attacked by the evil spirit, the sister-in-law was vague.

Knowing that it was not her son who was injured, Mrs. Han was naturally relieved, but if it was Jiayu's child who involved ordinary people during the removal of spirits and caused injuries...... The aftermath is also a trouble.

After hastily ending the call with her sister-in-law, Mrs. Han immediately picked up Mr. Xiao's phone, so Mr. Xiao heard a trace of anxiety in her voice.

Jiayu's ...... Fiancee?

"Brother Xiao, you mean, you saw a girl who claimed to be the fiancée of the dog?"

"Where is the little girl claiming to be the one Ling Lang said when he introduced herself. On the day Manning commissioned the removal of the spirit, Ling Lang took the little girl with him! Haha, like glue, very affectionate! ”

After a few more greetings with Mr. Xiao, Mrs. Han politely hung up the phone.

"Madame, what's wrong with you?"

After Madame hung up the phone, she sat on the sofa for a long time, and her expression was unprecedentedly strict, which made the disciple a little worried.

"Yuanyuan, how long has it been since Jiayu's child came home?"

Yuanyuan thought for a while and said, "It's probably two or three months...... Oh! The young master came back once a month ago, saying that he was here to get holy water, but he left immediately, and you went to the dojo at that time, so you didn't see the young master. The young master also instructed that he was not allowed to mention it to his mother when he went home, so Yuanyuan has been helping the young master keep it secret until now.

Mrs. Han sighed heavily, and then dialed her sister-in-law's home phone from her landline.

Aunt's house.

Xinyi had just fallen asleep, and Jiayu kissed Xinyi's forehead, then turned around and walked into the kitchen.

In the kitchen, my aunt was decocting medicine according to the prescription given by her sister-in-law.

The skills of the Han family have always been passed on to daughters-in-law, not daughters. It's a lot of age now, but my dad is still so dogmatic.

My aunt sighed while decocting the medicine.

The sister-in-law is too shrewd, and she has always been stupid, I don't know if the other party heard anything wrong when she asked her sister-in-law about the prescription.

Xinyi's sister-in-law doesn't know about it yet, and she and Jiayu both feel that it's better not to let the sister-in-law know about this matter first, after all, the competition of ten thousand souls has not ended, and Jiayu still has a marriage contract with the Deng family.

"Auntie, I'll come."

"Okay, okay, you've been running for Xinyi all day, and you're tired, go and rest early."

Although my aunt's family has hired a nanny, the prescription should not be leaked, and the Han family has to come in person to decoct the medicine.

But the smell of this medicine is really not very good. My aunt covered her nose, and she was able to drink it like a jade dew fairy syrup these days.

"Go ahead, go to sleep first. You have to get up at three o'clock in the middle of the night to feed Xinyi medicine. ”

There was a sound of hurried footsteps outside, it was the nanny Xiao Lian, who walked in quickly with a wireless extension phone in her hand.

"Madam, your phone number is the eldest lady."

Aunt and Jiayu frowned when they heard this. Not long after this phone call, why did you call again? …… Could it be that she was asking about the prescription that made her realize something?

The aunt stared at the casserole, took the phone in Xiao Lian's hand, and gestured at Jiayu with the other hand, meaning to let him go to sleep, and she would bear it if there was something.

"Hey, sister-in-law."

"Han Ying."

My aunt's back stiffened. As long as the sister-in-law calls her full name, there will be absolutely no good thing.

"You've got something to hide from me." The tone on the other end of the phone was tepid, but it made my aunt even more weak.

"Sister-in-law, you...... What does it mean? ”

"You're still trying to hide it from me?" The sister-in-law's tone became stern, "Jiayu is not sensible, are you also messing around with him?" ”

"Sister-in-law...... What the hell do you mean? ”

"Let me ask you, what's the matter with Jiayu's fiancée?"

My aunt's face fell, and she thought: It's over......

23:00。

Jiayu, who was kicked out of the kitchen by his aunt, was also going to bed, but who knew that taking a hot shower would also wash away the fatigue and sleepiness of his body, and he had to feed Xinyi medicine at three o'clock, so he simply didn't sleep, he unscrewed the doorknob of Xinyi's bedroom and walked to her bed.

Xinyi was sleeping soundly, Jiayu turned on the bedside lamp, turned the brightness to the darkest, sat on the edge of the bed, and stared at her sleeping face. Fingers brushed away a strand of hair that was blocking her eyes, and pulled down the quilt that covered half of her head, telling her to sleep outside.

Xinyi's breathing was uneven, thinking that it was because the severe pain in her body was still tormenting her. Jiayu's fingers gently stroked Xinyi's cheek, revealing a distressed and guilty look.

Fingers ran up over her forehead, making sure she didn't have a fever, and Jia Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

When Jiayu was a child, he was also attacked by evil spirits during his cultivation, and he knew the pain. Fortunately, Xia Wenbin didn't hurt Xinyi, otherwise Jiayu really couldn't forgive him for his own negligence.

“…… Well? Jiayu, is it time to take medicine......"

Xinyi woke up in a daze, looking at Jiayu with sleepy eyes.

Jiayu gently grabbed one of Xinyi's hands and rubbed it on her face.

“…… It's not here yet, you can sleep again, I'll wake you up when the time comes. ”

"If you don't sleep, I won't sleep either."

Jiayu exhaled softly.

"You see I'm about to become a pig every day except for eating and sleeping."

"I'll see where it's become a pig."

Jiayu leaned her face closer to Xinyi, and the touch of skin made Xinyi's face burn.

A dragonfly kiss in the water.

She is still a patient, and Jiayu knows how to measure herself.

"Jiayu, I heard that you were injured when you were a child much worse than I am now."

In the afternoon, when Jiayu went outside to grab medicine, her aunt told Xinyi about Jiayu's childhood. The practice of the soul slayer is very harsh, and Mr. Han and Jiayu's mother are extremely strict, Jiayu is often seriously injured by evil spirits, and once woke up in a coma for three days.

"So I'm just a drop in the bucket by comparison. At most, I'm like this after running a marathon, so don't feel sorry for me anymore. ”

"You're a girl, so it's naturally different."

"Why is it different? You can tolerate such a serious injury, and I can also do this little pain. ”

…… Who is this stubborn temper like?

"Jiayu, do you really not sleep?"

"You sleep, I want to watch you."

…… I can't sleep when you're watching.

"Then everyone won't sleep well."

Xinyi mechanically twisted her body to sit up, but Jiayu couldn't help her, so she had to help her up and put the soft cushion behind her back for her to lean on.

"I want you to tell me stories about when you were a child."

"Didn't my aunt tell you about it in the afternoon?"

"I want to hear from you." Xinyi pouted.

It's rare to see her so coquettish.

"Okay, let's start when I was six years old......"

Jiayu said slowly, talking and talking, under Jiayu's magnetic voice, Xinyi gradually fell asleep again, the night breeze swept in, Xinyi's body shrank for a moment, and her eyes that were immediately closed were barely opened.

Jiayu got up and came to the window to close the window, the moonlight outside the window dyed the white earth, and there was silence all around. The side face of Jiayu that emerges under the moonlight is gentle and illusory, and the beauty is suffocating.

"Xinyi, go to sleep again, I'll watch over you."

“…… Then come and put me to sleep......"

Miss Wu is going to be coquettish to the end today.

Jiayu stayed in front of the bed again, quietly caressing her face, but Xinyi still refused to fall asleep obediently, Jiayu finally raised her hand in surrender, remembering the lullaby that her grandmother often hummed softly by the pillow when she was a child, leaned over her ear, and hummed softly.

His voice was a little dry, and he could hear that he was a little shy, but this lullaby, which had the warmth of his grandmother in the depths of his memory, would not mess up the syllables because of the shyness in his heart.

Under the gentle illumination of the moonlight and Jiayu's gentle humming, Xinyi gradually closed her eyes.

In the corridor, the uncle faintly saw that the light in Xinyi's bedroom was on, and gently closed the crack in the door, Jiayu looked at the sleeping Xinyi dotingly, humming a warm lullaby in his mouth, and the uncle smiled slightly and gently closed the door.

…… Xiao Yu, this kid, can hum a lullaby to coax people to sleep, Xinyi, this girl is really incredible.

When I walked into the kitchen, my wife was still decocting medicine.

"Yingying, I'll decoct the medicine, you go and rest."

The aunt shook her head and took her husband's hand, and he could see that she was preoccupied.

"What's wrong, Yingying?"

"Husband, sister-in-law...... I know about Jiayu and Xinyi. ”

The sister-in-law is deeply influenced by her parents' conservative thinking, coupled with the hidden relationship of the family, and only recognizes the "right family". Although I don't like the daughter of the Deng family as a daughter-in-law, the selection of a daughter-in-law will not leave the scope of the soul removal.

My sister-in-law has two protégés, and she must want one of them to become Jiayu's wife.

This is the case with the union of Han Ying and her husband. Her husband is a protégé of Han Ying's mother, but Han Ying agrees to this family affair because she and he are childhood sweethearts and love each other. But Jiayu is different, he has no feelings for his sister-in-law's students at all.

Jiayu wanted to wait until he completed the task of Ten Thousand Souls before mentioning Xinyi to his mother, so that he would have a bargaining chip with his mother. That's why Jiayu would desperately get rid of the spirit before.

"Is my sister-in-law angry?"

"My sister-in-law only asked me one sentence and said, 'You are so nonsense because of Jiayu, have you ever wondered if it will cause trouble to the girl's family?' -- This sentence really stopped me. ”

"Didn't you tell your sister-in-law, does Xinyi have psychic eyes?"

"Yes...... Including how these two children met, I told my sister-in-law. Alas, it's better not to talk about it. ”

can make Yingying's face condense, it seems that the sister-in-law is going to take some action.

"My sister-in-law said that tomorrow she will contact the Takase family in Japan and ask them to make a medicine that can make the psychic eye ineffective."

The Takase family in Japan is a descendant of the Onmyoji, and has always had friendly relations with the three clans of the Chinese Soul Killer Family.

The pharmaceutical technology of the Takase family is known as the best in the world.

The aunt sighed, "Sister-in-law said that the psychic eye is too heavy and unfortunate for that child, and it is better to let her return to a normal person earlier." If you are not a descendant or protégé of a soul removal, you should not have much to do with spirits. ”

As the daughter of the Han family, my aunt naturally understands this truth. But if the sister-in-law sees her son so obsessed with Xinyi, can she bear to break up the pair of mandarin ducks?

"Don't worry about it yet." The uncle was relieved, "That medicine can't be made overnight, even if it is done, as long as Xinyi is unwilling, no one can force the child to take the medicine." ”

The uncle turned the fire on the stove into a simmer, and put his arm around his wife's shoulder, "Let's wait and see what happens, and wait for Xiao Yu to complete the Ten Thousand Souls task according to the original plan." Without the pressure of Deng and Ouyang, Xinyi and Xiaoyu's affairs can be discussed with their sister-in-law at that time. Whether the psychic eye is fortunate or unfortunate is only what Xinyi herself says. The sister-in-law is strict but not unreasonable, she won't do anything to Xinyi. ”

"yes." My aunt said earnestly, "What we can do is to urge Jiayu to complete the Ten Thousand Souls task as soon as possible." ”

As for the sister-in-law...... We can only wait and see what happens.
