After Stealing a Retired Officer's Child, I Won Big in the 70s

35-year-old Jiang Li was unmarried and childless, running her own small company with an annual income of several million, living a wonderful life.

19-year-old Jiang Li was pretty but brainles...

Chapter 91 Jiang Li draws portraits to make money, while Shen Changan takes care of the baby in the house

After getting Aunt Li's consent and the villagers' testimony, Jiang Li nodded and went into the house.

"I'll go get the drawing board. You guys wait here for a moment."

Jiang Li suddenly turned around, and it was too late for Shen Changan, who had been standing in the main hall and peeking, to dodge.

The two of them looked at each other face to face. Shen Changan pointed outside a little uncomfortably and said, "I'm a little urgent. I'm going to the toilet."

Just as Shen Changan was about to go out, Jiang Li quickly grabbed his arm.

She originally had a bad reputation in Jiangjia Village, but now through her own efforts, she has changed the impression of many villagers towards her.

This early in the morning, a man suddenly walked out of her room. What would that gossipy Aunt Li think of her? What would she think of Shen Changan?

Shen Changan's arm suddenly felt hot, and his face turned red when he felt Jiang Li's touch.

Shen Changan looked down at where Jiang Li was holding his wrist. They were very close now, and he could smell the faint fragrance on her body again.

What on earth is this smell? Why is it so fragrant and so familiar?

Shen Changan moved his nose slightly. The light in the room was very dim now, so Jiang Li should not notice.

"What's wrong?"

Shen Changan asked in a puzzled manner, and Jiang Li pointed at the crowd outside in a panic.

"There are so many people watching outside. If you suddenly walk out, others will think there's a man hiding in my room. How will they view our relationship then?"

Isn't this just a sudden disaster, looking for trouble?

Shen Changan was not a stupid person, he reacted quickly.

I had just been caught eavesdropping on Jiang Li talking to the villagers. My thoughts were a bit confused in my panic, so I didn't think too much about it.

"I'm sorry, I didn't think it through. I won't go out then. I'll just bear with it, okay?"

Shen Changan sat on a stool against the wall in the main room, his whole body hidden in the dim light, and people outside could not see that there was a person sitting in the room.

"Hold it? If you really can't help it, there's a chamber pot in my room. You can use it."

Jiang Li blushed and left quickly after saying this. What kind of words were they talking about? She was really going to go crazy if she continued talking about them.

It wasn't until Jiang Li took the drawing board, stool and kerosene lamp out that Shen Changan came to his senses.

How could a grown man like him not be able to hold his urine?

Is Jiang Li really thinking about him when she said this or is she teasing him???

Shen Changan, who had always been clear-headed, felt a mess in his head at this time.

Jiang Li set up the drawing board and was already painting seriously.

It's still dark, and there's a waterlogged corpse lying in my yard. The dim moonlight shines down, casting a layer of white light over the corpse, which makes it look even more creepy.

Jiang Li, however, seemed to be fine. He stared at the corpse for a long time and then fell into deep thought.

Shen Changan watched from afar, thinking to himself that Jiang Li was a really brave girl. Some girls would be scared to death when they saw a mouse, but she wasn't even afraid of a corpse?

Aren't they all girls? Why is there such a big difference? Is Jiang Li, a mother of two, forced to be strong because of her motherly nature?

Jiang Li has already started painting on the drawing board. She writes very quickly without any pause during the whole process.

Shen Changan suddenly became curious. What did Jiang Li's portrait look like? Was it really that realistic?

Why did the woman in the village, who clearly had a grudge against her, kneel down and slap herself in the face, personally admit her mistake and promise to change in the future, but still wanted to ask her to paint her portrait?

Shen Changan stood up and walked a few steps in the main room. He really wanted to go out and take a look, but thinking of what Jiang Li said, he decided to give up for the sake of her reputation.

He was forced to stay here last night because of the heavy rain, which had already caused trouble for Jiang Li. If her reputation was ruined because of him, he really didn't know how to make it up to her.

Shen Changan was still struggling when the sound of a baby crying came from Jiang Li's room again.

Shen Changan stood at the door of Jiang Li's room for a long time. He saw through the door that Jiang Li's portrait movements became faster and faster after hearing the baby crying, and a hint of impatience appeared on his calm face.

After thinking about it, he pushed open her door. Shen Changan sat on the edge of the bed and picked up the crying second child.

The reason why he knew this was the second child was because he had held both babies yesterday. Although the two babies looked the same, there was a big difference in their sizes.

Shen Changan could tell at a glance that the younger one was the second oldest and the older one was the oldest.

First, he helped the second one to pee, and then the eldest one who loved to join in the fun woke up again, so Shen Changan quickly helped him to pee as well.

The two little guys might be hungry. After they finished peeing, they still refused to go to bed. Shen Changan thought about it and went outside to get a glass of boiled water, and then went to the kitchen to find a small spoon.

He gently lifted up the second child and scooped some water with a spoon and brought it to his mouth.

The second child was extremely hungry, and he kept smacking his little mouth, not even wanting to drink boiled water.

The second child drank a few sips of boiled water and felt that the taste was not what he wanted, so he immediately started crying out of grievance.

Shen Changan touched his pocket and found a lot of milk powder tickets in his wallet. It would be great if these milk powder tickets could be exchanged for milk powder.

It would be better if there was a bottle of milk, so that the two little ones would not be hungry even if Jiang Li was not at home.

The second child kept crying, and Shen Changan could only hold him and pace back and forth in the room, coaxing him in a low voice.

When the eldest brother saw that Shen Changan had been holding the second brother, he was originally just crying quietly, and then it turned into his signature "Ahahaha".

Shen Changan felt a headache when he heard the loud crying, and he quickly picked up the eldest child.

But I have to hold two babies at a time, walk around the house, and worry about them falling all the time.

Shen Changan was so nervous that his arms became sore after walking for a while.

Jiang Li hadn't finished drawing the portrait yet, but Shen Changan was still gritting his teeth and persevering.

The two babies leaned in Shen Changan's arms. Although they were hungry, they still sucked their fingers to comfort themselves.

Jiang Li was originally a little annoyed by the crying of the baby in the room, and he painted the portrait much faster.

Later, she heard the room become quiet again and her emotions returned to normal.

Because the protagonist of this portrait has died, Jiang Li can only draw the portrait based on the impression in his memory and the actual situation.

The portrait that usually takes 20 minutes to complete took me 40 minutes this time.

When Jiang Li finally put down her paintbrush, she breathed a sigh of relief.

This deal is not easy to do. It is really a loss to paint a portrait for one dollar. However, if Aunt Li can really change her gossiping habit, the whole Jiangjia Village will probably have less troubles. Jiang Li can be said to have done a good thing for the village.

"Are you done? Why did it take so long this time?"

Aunt Li and several villagers gathered around. The moment they saw the portrait, they were so shocked that they could fit an egg in their mouths. Everyone's reaction aroused Shen Changan's curiosity.
