Chapter 4: The Terrible Mrs. Lie
"Stop by here"
Fat Cat Spotted walked leisurely to a deep rut.
First, he stretched out his paw and pulled it twice, and then lowered his head and sniffed, looking thoughtful.
Cade on the side asked with some curiosity, "What did the cat find?" ”
...
The names of youkai belong to their taboo and are generally not told to others.
Muguang and Eri Yi also occasionally call Madara's name only in private.
The cowboys on the farm, along with these former Spartan warriors, refer to Madara as "Teacher Cat or Master Cat".
They all kept their duties and didn't reveal the secrets of the talking cat to the outside world.
It may also be because Muguang has intimidated them, and if they talk about it, they will be eaten by Madara.
Anyway, only they know Madara's identity.
...
"Nothing was found." Pretending to be deep, Fat Cat Deftly climbed back onto Cade's body, and said confidently: "I'm not a detective, what can I find out from these ruts alone!" ”
This answer left the mighty Spartan warrior speechless. Rao is a man like Cade who can keep his face unchanged before the collapse of Taishan, and he also has some facial convulsions.
"That's it! Keep going! Really, it's estimated that I'm going to spend a few days here. ”
Fat Cat didn't care about the idea of the "mount" under him, and lazily waved his paw and ordered.
Since he promised that Muguang would take a good look at his cowboys and protect their safety, Madara has always been a good monster who keeps his word.
It's definitely not for the sake of Muguang who promised to make him five braised big carp... Well! Definitely not!
...
Inside the estate
With the addition of fat cat spots, Mu Guang's somewhat hanging heart also let go.
He was lying on a chaise longue, enjoying the afternoon tea served by Mrs. Lie.
Judging from the current situation, unless it is an extraordinary event, it is impossible for ordinary people to pose any threat to a high-level youkai.
...
"In two days, I will have to go to the supermarket for a big purchase. Let's see what else needs to be prepared."
Mrs. Lie held a long list and looked at the boy who was lazy and fishing.
For Lexington, Christmas and New Year's Day are naturally very important, just as Muguang prefers to celebrate the Spring Festival.
The two of them have their own lives, and although the three have never been separated, it does not prevent them from paying attention to their respective festivals.
Reunion, reunion, reunion, reunion.
Mu Guang tried hard to fool Mrs. Lie into a Spring Festival fan, and Mrs. Lie would drag Mu Guang out to buy before Christmas.
Two people don't admit defeat to each other, you come and go, you can always think of some novel customs and habits, and the whole other party is not at peace.
...
For example:
"I won't have to put lights and Christmas trees in my house this year!"
Mu Guang, who was caught by Mrs. Lie, let out a cry of pleading.
It's a five-story tall manor, all of which add up to three people plus a cat, and the living room is big enough to form a basketball team, so you can imagine how empty it is.
Mu Guang wanted to build a small building next to him several times, but was rejected by Mrs. Lie.
The reason is also very strange, this manor should be just right if the sisters are there.
Come on! There are only three people here, and there are sisters there.
...
However, Mrs. Lie vetoed Muguang's proposal many times on the grounds that the space was too small for her to stretch her body, and that the newly built small building had formaldehyde and other strange reasons.
In addition, there are no servants at home, and Muguang and Eriyi haven't even gone anywhere else except for the time when they were cleaning.
If the place is big, you can hide and seek.
...
If that's all it takes, but every Christmas, Mrs. Lie must decorate the whole house in a Christmas atmosphere.
Oh my God, there must be fifty or sixty rooms on five floors, and a huge living room covering the first and second floors.
If you want to install all the lanterns, you can simply ask for Muguang's old life.
...
"You're the master of the house, so you'll have to decorate!"
Mrs. Lie didn't care, she didn't care about the size of the house, she cared more about the fact that she would receive visitors as a hostess.
...
Looking at Lexington, who was learning to pout his lips and combine cuteness and beauty, Mu Guang finally nodded reluctantly and agreed.
Why do you always have tears in your eyes, because I love Mrs. Lie deeply.
If I decorate it this year, too.
This has to be done sooner, there are still four or five days before Christmas, and it will be Christmas when he is ready.
...
"This is my good commander~ But you can't apply for off-site assistance!"
Lexington kissed the young man on the cheek with satisfaction, and said in a coquettish voice.
Looking at the embarrassed gaze, how could Lexington not know the little ninety-nine in this person's heart.
"Okay, okay" Mu Guang sighed and got up from the recliner, Mrs. Lie was really his nemesis in common with Eri Yi and Fat Cat Spot.
"I promise I won't call the Shadow Legion to do the work for me."
"That's pretty much it!"
The girl finally smiled with satisfaction, she took Muguang's hand and ran to the warehouse behind.
In fact, for Mrs. Lie, it doesn't matter if she spends Christmas at all, all she wants is that feeling of home.
I just want the boy to be with me all the time.
...
Recalling the old days in the harbor command post, every Christmas, everyone was a lively scene, and Lexington was a little sad.
"I don't know how everyone is doing, are you still waiting for the commander to appear?"
...
"Lexington! Where do these ribbons hang? ”
Mu Guang looked at the No. 1 warehouse that could open a commissary, took a deep breath and began to pick and choose inside.
Picking up a tangled ball of broken light bulbs, Mu Guang shook off the dust on it and asked Lexington.
...
"This is a red lantern, and you have to hang it on the wall first, but you have to wait until the Christmas decoration is done!"
Mrs. Lie pointed to the various tools that had been dusted in the warehouse for a year, as arranged by several family treasures.
"These Christmas wreaths are decorations, and each room door has to be affixed with one.... And this..."
...
"Eri Yi! The hanging over there is crooked~ Come to the left a little! Don't move, Commander! ”
Riding on Muguang's shoulders, Eri likes this kind of activity very much.
It's a pity that the cat teacher is not there, otherwise it would be more interesting to watch him and Muguang arguing.
...
"Ahh Who's choreographing me! Fat Cat Spot, who had already led the team to the junction of the road and the highway, was glad in his heart while lazily supervising the cowboys tinkling to seal the road.
How could he have forgotten that it was almost Christmas, and the thought of the gentle-faced Mrs. Lie saying the most cold and merciless words not only made him shudder.
"If only it could be done before Christmas Eve! I'll hang you up! Rest assured~ Commander, there will be no danger to your life! ”
...
"What a terrible woman!"
Fat Cat Spotted rejoiced as he licked the hair off his body.
