Chapter 188: Another Sensation in the Family Courtyard



When Ji Xin came home from school, he saw the picture album on the table and picked it up curiously. "Mom, is this the comic book you bought for me?"

"My aunt gave it to us."

Jinian was holding four books in her arms, just right for her and her brother to separate.

Ji Xin took off his schoolbag and threw it on the sofa, and couldn't wait to sit on the sofa with the book to read.

"Little Heroes" has been serialized in the newspaper. Considering the sales volume, Lin Jingshu added some easter eggs to meet the readers' expectations.

When Su Hongping came out after cooking, she found that Ji Xin had not done his homework and was lying on the sofa reading a picture album.

"Ahem."

Ji Xin was dangling his feet, his chin supported by his hands, completely unaware, and completely immersed in the story.

Ji Nian raised his head from the book and shouted, "Brother, Mom is calling you."

"ah?"

Ji Xin woke up as if from a dream, turned around and saw his mother with a gloomy face and a feather duster in her hand, and jumped up immediately.

"Mom, what are you doing with a feather duster?"

"What do you want me to do? Have you finished your homework?"

Ji Xin looked at the schoolbag beside him guiltily, "Not yet. I have a day off tomorrow. Can I write it tomorrow?"

"Can."

Ji Xin wanted to struggle, but he didn't expect her to agree so readily. He was surprised but felt something was wrong. Could it be that she was testing him on purpose?

Su Hongping didn't think it was that complicated. She simply felt that the exam was coming up and the child didn't need to be nervous studying.

Ji Xin usually does his homework on his own initiative when he gets home from school without her urging him, and it's okay for him to have a relaxing day.

The surprise came so suddenly that Ji Xin cheered, "Then I'll take the album and look at it with Xiao Hai."

He ran out with the picture album in his arms.

Su Hongping called from behind, "Come back for dinner later."

When Ji Xin found Xiao Hai, he was playing games with other children in the family compound.

"Xiao Hai, let's look at the picture book together. It's 'Little Heroes'."

Xiao Hai ran over when he heard what he said, with a surprised smile on his face. "Little Heroes? Isn't that a newspaper?"

"I already have a picture album. Aunt Lin gave it to me."

A chuckle came from the side, "Big liar, there is no album at all, Ji Xin is a big liar."

Sun Yongjian stood on a rock not far away with his hands on his hips and laughed out loud, his tone full of contempt.

Ji Xin's face flushed with anger, and he loudly defended himself: "I'm not a liar, it's real. If you don't believe me, just look."

The friends around him stood still, but Xiao Hai believed in his good friend and stood on Ji Xin's side without hesitation.

He flipped through the album, his eyes brightening the more he looked, "It's real!"

When the children saw Xiao Hai’s reaction, they came forward curiously and found that it was indeed the comic strip they were familiar with. They immediately fell in love with it.

Sun Yongjian thought they were colluding to cheat people, so he ran over to grab the comic book.

Ji Xin had been paying attention to his movements. When he saw him grabbing the picture album, he quickly took two steps back to avoid him.

"I won't show it to you."

Ji Xin made a face.

Sun Yongjian was furious. "You are a liar. How come we didn't know about the comic strip, and only you knew about it? You printed it secretly, didn't you?"

"No, this was given to me by Aunt Lin, the author of Little Heroes."

One word can cause a thousand ripples.

"Mr. Lin is the one who draws the little heroes."

“Amazing.”

The little ones were full of excitement and ran to Lin Jingshu's door.

Sun Yongjian, who stayed where he was, was stunned. Then he ran to catch up with the group. He also wanted the album.

Lin Jingshu didn't know that a large group of people were coming to her house. She was carefully preparing the menu for dinner.

The eldest brother finally won the favor of his future father-in-law and successfully got the beauty. Tonight is the day when Fang Yuanyuan comes to visit our home.

The smile on Ding Xiangzhi's face never stopped. Her eldest son was about to get married, her second son was also showing signs of pregnancy, and her grandchildren would be born soon. She felt that the happiest time in her life was now.

Zeng Lingshu helped to clean up.

Both of them love to chat, and when they get together, their auras are inexplicably compatible.

Lin Jingshu was originally afraid that they would not get along, and if there was a conflict, she would be caught in the middle and have to mediate.

As it turned out, she was completely overthinking it.

Lin Jingshu was preparing snacks. She picked a lot of coconuts from home and brought them back. After pouring out the coconut milk, there was still a lot of coconut meat left, which she thought would be a waste if she threw it away, so she decided to make some coconut chips.

Lin Mu acted as an assistant cook and worked with her.

"Little sister, you know what, this oven is really good, it's better than the stove we have at home."

The Lin family has an old-fashioned stove pot, which they take out and use when baking mooncakes. Ingredients are placed in the pot. There is no lid, but a concave lid. Charcoal is put on it and burned to achieve the effect of heating from top to bottom.

However, this tool is difficult to operate and you need to pay attention to the temperature at all times.

If there is an oven, it will be convenient to make things. Lin Mu learned how to make it and plans to make one at home.

The coconut slices came out of the pot and Lin Jingshu invited everyone to come and eat.

The family sat under the grape vines and enjoyed the meal quietly.

"Aunt, aunt."

Lin Jingshu heard Ji Xin's voice coming from outside the door.

Before he stood up, Lin Mu opened the door first.

When Ji Xin saw a stranger coming out, he remembered what his mother had said about his aunt's family coming to visit, so he immediately stood up and greeted, "Hello, uncle."

"Hello little one."

Lin Mu looked back and was surprised to see so many children.

For a moment, Lin Mu didn't know what to do, so he had to call for his little sister.

Lin Jingshu was also surprised.

"Xiao Xin, what are you doing?"

"Teacher Lin, did you draw the little hero?"

Without waiting for Ji Xin to speak, Xiao Hai said anxiously that he liked the little hero in the story the most and hoped to be like him in the future and drive out the bad guys outside.

Lin Jingshu had no intention of hiding it from everyone. She looked at the children's expectant eyes, smiled and nodded slightly.

“I drew it.”

Ji Xin straightened his chest and said, "I didn't lie to you."

After hearing the whole story, Lin Jingshu couldn't help but laugh.

Within an hour, all the children in the compound knew that Lin Jingshu was the author of "Little Heroes".

Parents also learned the news from their children.

I originally thought that Lin Jingshu went to Guangzhou to attend the exchange meeting just for fun, but I didn't expect that her picture album was published.

"That must make a lot of money, right?"

"Of course. You see, the children all love watching it, and the adults like it too. My husband, Lao Qi, mentioned this the other day when he came home. He said it inspired the soldiers and had a very positive impact."

Everyone was very excited when talking about money, and they wanted to count on their fingers how much Lin Jingshu had earned.

What's more, he went to Su Hongping to ask.

Lin Jingshu was pregnant, so they didn't dare to disturb her and could only hang around Su Hongping's house.

Su Hongping was busy with her work and said indifferently, "How would I know? Sister Li heard that your husband got a bonus a few days ago. How much was it?"

Sister Li's expression froze for a moment, then she laughed and said, "Not much."

Afraid that Su Hongping would catch her and question her, she hurriedly found an excuse and ran away.

Su Hongping snorted, "Tsk!" She was allowed to ask others, but not others to ask her. What a double standard.
