Chapter 187 The Bai Family Visitors
The shouting was piercing. Qi Man was annoyed and put a pillow on the back of her head to block her ears and reduce the noise. She couldn't resist the sleepiness and fell into a deep sleep.
As soon as Xie Yunshu came out of the kitchen, he saw Xie's mother running out of the room cursing and opening the door with a gloomy face:
"Noisy, noisy, noisy! What are you doing? It's so early in the morning and you're disturbing people's sweet dreams. Can't we get any sleep?"
As soon as I opened the door, I saw the three Bai Teng brothers standing at the door with wooden sticks in their hands.
Perhaps because the two families were enemies, Bai Teng's face was not good and his voice was extremely loud:
"Jiaojiao didn't come home all night. We are worried and are looking for her door to door!"
Mother Xie looked unhappy:
"Bai Jiao is missing, what does that have to do with us? We are just two lonely old people at home, can they kidnap your precious Jiao Jiao?"
Bai Teng was scolded so much that his face turned red, and he said in embarrassment, holding the stick in his hand:
“Excuse me!”
After saying that, he took his brothers and left the Qi family.
Xie's mother's muttering came from behind:
"I don't know what's wrong with young people nowadays. They are so grown up, but they don't have any brains. They don't even look for people this way!"
This matter was not reasonable, Bai Teng did not dare to turn around to argue with Xie's mother, but lowered his head even lower and went to the next house.
"snort!"
Mother Xie closed the door angrily, her eyes fell on her son who was standing at the door with a shovel, her face turned into worry, she ran over anxiously, holding Xie Yunshu's wrist with both hands, her tone was horrified and worried:
"Son, what happened between you and Manman yesterday? And what's going on with Bai Jiao?"
In fact, Xie's mother woke up very early. After a whole night of thinking and pondering, she still couldn't figure out the mysterious events that happened last night. At this moment, there was a dark circle under her eyes and her face was a little pale.
Xie Yunshu placed the hand holding the shovel on the back of Xie's mother's hand, patted it gently to comfort her, and explained softly:
"Manman has been learning some unique skills from Chinese people who live in seclusion abroad since she was a child. If it weren't for the severe suppression decades ago, those older immortals would have gone into hiding abroad. When they were dying, they passed on all their skills to Manman.
As for Bai Jiao, she is a soul from another world. The original Bai Jiao had long since passed away and entered reincarnation. The one from last night was also a woman who did many evil things in her previous life. Last night, she was burned to ashes by my wife!
You must keep your mouth shut tightly, no one can hear it! ”
Although he knew his mother's temper, Xie Yunshu still gave her some symbolic advice.
“Hey hey!”
Mother Xie responded repeatedly, believing in what her son said without a doubt. Her heart finally settled down, and she sighed:
"It's all right, it's all right!"
"I'm going to make breakfast, otherwise Manman will get hungry later. We can't let outsiders know that my wife and I are back, so as to avoid getting into trouble."
Xie Yunshu went into the kitchen with a shovel.
Mother Xie patted her chest with lingering fear, and while digesting the information in her mind, she brushed her teeth and washed up.
Probably because he thought his son had married an extraordinary wife who had such great powers.
Xie Yunshu ground Qi Man's favorite soy milk this morning and fried some peanut dumplings.
The skin of the rice dumpling is fried crispy and crispy, with sizzling oil steam mixed with the aroma of peanuts, which is very tempting.
After serving breakfast, Xie Yunshu went into the room to call Qi Man to get up.
The little person lying on the bed was covering his head with a pillow, blocking himself tightly. Xie Yunshu felt distressed and carefully took the pillow out.
The young wife's face was flushed from holding her breath, but she was sleeping soundly. It was probably because Bai Teng and the others were making a noise just now that she covered her head with the pillow.
Xie Yunshu gently pinched the tip of Qi Man's nose and coaxed her softly:
"Little lazy pig, it's time to get up. I made your favorite soy milk this morning, as well as fried rice dumplings. I'm sure you've never had them before."
Qi Man sniffed her nose slightly, inhaling the lingering fragrance of the rice dumplings floating in the air, and reluctantly opened her eyes. She climbed up from the bed with difficulty, opened her arms, and said softly:
"Hug~"
Xie Yunshu had no choice but to hold his young wife in his arms and help Qi Man get dressed and put on shoes. He carried her to the kitchen and handed her the squeezed toothpaste and a cup full of water. After Qi Man finished brushing her teeth, he wiped Qi Man's face with a wet towel, his movements gentle and careful, as if he was treating a rare treasure.
Old Master Qi looked at Xie Yunshu who was working hard, pretended to be sarcastic and said:
"Manman is already such a grown-up, but why does she still need Yunshu to brush her teeth and wash her face, like a child? If this gets out, she will be laughed at to death by others. Even a child would say shame on her."
Qi Man's face puffed up, and her cheeks bulged up like a bulging pufferfish, and she hummed and said:
"Manman is not afraid of being laughed at. They say such things out of envy and jealousy because they don't have their husbands to love them!"
Mr. Qi was so amused that he didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and he quickly coaxed his angry granddaughter:
"Okay, okay, they are just jealous!"
My granddaughter is naive and romantic, and her personality is changeable, but she has the innocence of a child. My mother-in-law really raised her granddaughter very well.
At the dining table, a family of four was having a meal. Qi Man lowered her head, took a bite of a rice dumpling, and then took a sip of soy milk. Her little mouth was stuffed full.
The fried rice dumplings are crispy and crunchy, with soft and sticky glutinous rice mixed with the powdery texture of peanuts, which makes Qi Man love it.
Mother Xie looked up at Mr. Qi who was having a meal and asked:
"Brother Qi, you knew about Manman's matter a long time ago, didn't you..."
Judging from Mr. Qi’s expression yesterday, it didn’t seem like he didn’t know about it.
Mr. Qi took a sip of soy milk and swallowed the food before answering:
"I already knew about this. Yun Shu should have explained Manman's situation to you!"
Before breakfast, Xie Yunshu had already talked with Mr. Qi and repeated to him what Jiang had said to his mother this morning.
Mother Xie nodded and breathed a sigh of relief:
"Luckily, Manman and Yunshu showed up in time yesterday, otherwise we would both have lost our lives here."
Her legs went limp at that moment.
I racked my brains but couldn't figure out why the girl from the Bai family was actually a soul from another world and how she possessed someone else's body.
The new reform now does not encourage belief in ghosts and gods, but what happened was real, which inevitably shocked Xie's mother.
I kept telling myself in my heart that I must keep what happened last night to myself and not tell anyone about it even if I died.
"Grandpa and Mom, come live with us in Beijing! Beijing is prosperous and bustling, you will definitely like it. Grandma left me a house in Beijing, it's big and beautiful."
