Chapter 9 He's Back
The two elders accepted the gift with trepidation.
"You don't have to buy us gifts in the future. We are happy that you have this thought." Jiang's mother spoke to her in a low voice.
Li Yiyi could tell that both of them were doing this for her own good, so she smiled and agreed, "Okay, I'll listen to mom next time."
When Jiang's mother heard her happy agreement, a smile appeared on her lips, and she secretly glanced at her daughter-in-law who had changed so much.
At this moment, Father Jiang beside him slapped his thigh with a look of joy and shouted, "This, this is tobacco, it smells great. I'm so old, but this is the first time I've smelled such delicious tobacco. This stuff must be expensive."
When Li Yiyi saw the smile on the old man's face, she knew that her tobacco had touched his heart.
Father Jiang took a pinch of tobacco and put it to his nose and sniffed it, looking very satisfied.
"Third brother's wife, this tobacco is not cheap, right? Kid, you are not allowed to buy it next time. It's a waste of money." Although he said so, his hand never moved away from the tobacco.
Li Yiyi smiled and said to him, "Dad, I bought this tobacco from an old man. It's not expensive and doesn't require a ticket. I heard him say that he made it himself and secretly used it to exchange for something to live on."
Father Jiang wanted to say something else, but suddenly Mother Jiang spoke before him, "Why are you talking so much, old man? This is the filial piety of the third daughter-in-law to you. Aren't you afraid of disappointing the child by saying so much?"
Father Jiang looked at Mother Jiang in anger but dared not say anything. He could only mutter, "Didn't you just say that about the third daughter-in-law? Why can't you do that to me? This old woman only allows the officials to set fires but not the people to light lamps. Humph."
Jiang's mother looked at his moving lips and rolled her eyes at him, then continued to look at Li Yiyi and said, "Old Third, your father is right. Don't waste money next time. We appreciate your kindness."
"Also, don't worry about things at home. I've already sent a telegram to the third son, and he's probably on his way back. If there's anything that can't be resolved, you can discuss it with the third son, and you and your wife can solve it together." Jiang's mother said again.
Li Yiyi, who was listening to her talk at this time, had her head buzzing with the words she had just said that Jiang Hong was on his way back.
"Mom, wait a minute, you just said Jiang Hong is on his way back now?" She swallowed, interrupted Jiang's mother and asked her for confirmation.
Jiang's mother didn't notice her abnormality and said happily, "Yes, he is probably on his way back now. Now that the third child is back, you two should cultivate your relationship. Although the third child doesn't like to talk, he is careful and responsible."
At this time, Li Yiyi could not hear her words praising her son. Her mind was full of the good news that Jiang Hong was coming back.
She had just made the decision to slowly adapt to life here, but the man of the house was coming back!
"Let's cook a little more food at home today. You three, mother and your two children, can stay here for dinner." Jiang's mother said as she looked at her changed daughter-in-law.
Li Yiyi no longer had the mood to eat. Her scalp started to ache whenever she thought about Jiang Hong coming back.
"No, thank you, Mom. Dinner is already cooked at home." She answered absentmindedly.
Finally getting out of Old Jiang's house, Li Yiyi took out all the information about the man Jiang Hong in her original memory and went through it on the way back.
Maybe it was because the two of them were rarely together, but she didn't find any information about the man's appearance from her original body's memory. She only found that her original body seemed to be quite afraid of this man.
Having found no useful information, Li Yiyi now only hoped that he was delayed over there and had not returned.
But what she didn't know was that man proposes, God disposes. At night, when she was sleeping with her two children, she suddenly heard a noise coming from outside the yard.
Li Yiyi woke up immediately. At first she thought it was hallucination, until she was about to fall asleep again, she heard the noise outside Lu Zi again, and she was sure that there was really someone outside.
It was the middle of the night and there was no one living on either side of the house, so no one would come even if she called for help.
After some consideration, she decided to rely on herself.
She got down from the bed quietly and picked up a pole as thick as an adult's arm from behind the door. Fortunately, she had placed this in the room in advance, otherwise, tonight would have been a bit dangerous.
He took a deep breath, mustered up the courage to open the door, and walked towards his destination step by step following the source of the sound outside.
When she reached the kitchen door, she saw a figure under the light who seemed to be searching for something in the kitchen. At this moment, only one word came to her mind: thief!
Thinking that the rice and meat she bought from the supermarket during the day were all in here, Li Yiyi tightly grasped the carrying pole in her hand and slowly walked inside.
Just as she was about to approach the tall figure like a mountain, she subconsciously swallowed her saliva, raised the carrying pole in her hand and smashed it down on the broad back in front of her.
At this tense moment, the owner of the broad back suddenly turned around and raised a strong arm to block the carrying pole that she was about to smash down.
Li Yiyi saw the carrying pole blocked by him, her eyes flashing with anxiety, and she pulled the carrying pole in his hand with force.
Just when she was extremely anxious, she suddenly heard a man as tall as a mountain calling out her name, "Li Yiyi, it's me."
Hearing the other party calling out her name, Li Yiyi slowed down her move to grab the carrying pole from his hand and secretly looked at his face as he turned towards her.
You know what, he is quite good-looking, with short hair and handsome and deep facial features. The only difference is that his skin is a little dark, but it does not detract from his handsomeness. At the same time, it adds a masculine charm to him.
"Did I scare you? I'm sorry, I was planning to take a shower before going into the house, but I didn't expect to wake you up anyway." Jiang Hong explained.
"Jiang Hong?" Looking at his face, which was 70% similar to the two children sleeping in the room, she immediately guessed his identity.
Jiang Hong hummed softly, "It's me, I'm back."
Li Yiyi said with a panicked smile on her face, "You're back. You came back so soon." She almost gritted her teeth and whispered the last sentence.
As expected, what you fear will come true, and this man finally came back.
The atmosphere suddenly became quiet. Li Yiyi secretly raised her eyes to look at the tall man standing in front of her and found that all the points on this man were on the parts of a man that she liked.
