Chapter 0086 Half Showdown (Sharing the Era with Interstellar People
The system did not answer immediately, but remained silent for a few seconds.
Yi Rongkun didn't wait for the system's response and was a little nervous: "Tongtong? What's going on?"
She had only asked half of her question when the system's voice rang in her mind: "The person is right in front of you."
In front of my eyes?
Yi Rongkun's eyes were full of suspicion, and he blinked his big eyes looking for someone who might have come to protect his family.
But I didn't see what it meant.
During this brief silence, Yi Rongkun felt an inexplicable aura spreading around him, as if something invisible was approaching quietly.
She subconsciously clenched her fists, feeling both nervous and expectant.
What makes her nervous is that she doesn't know what form this so-called special operations team member will appear in, and what impact will it have on her and her family?
I hope that with the protection of their home, the family members won’t have to get into too much trouble because of the things they take out.
"Host, the special operations team members have already arrived in secret. They will integrate into your lives in the most suitable way to ensure your safety."
The system's voice sounded again, with a hint of gloating.
Upon hearing this, Yi Rongkun's eyes showed even more doubt.
At this time, sister-in-law Mou Decong and mother Liu Guoxiang had already invited the strange sister home.
Um?
Strange sister?
Yi Rongkun carefully recalled what the system had just said, and the look in his eyes when he looked at Ran Qiaojun changed slightly.
"Come, sister, drink some water first."
When Yi Rongying saw her mother and sister-in-law bringing guests into the house, she quickly poured them a bowl of water and brought it over.
"Thanks."
Ran Qiaojun hurriedly stood up and took the bowl of water with both hands, "Thank you, sister."
"You're welcome."
Yi Rongying blushed and smiled shyly.
The third brother Yi Rongqi was peeking at the door, curious to know who this young woman was, but too embarrassed to get close to her.
Yi Rongkun looked at this scene and his brain reacted instantly.
Tongtong said they would integrate into their family's life in the most suitable way.
So, this strange sister in front of me might be a member of that team?
Just as she was lost in thought, her cousin Yi Rongqun brought over a large bowl of food: "Sister, do you think this is enough?"
"That's enough."
When Ran Qiaojun saw such a large bowl of rice, she quickly stood up and said awkwardly, "Thank you, I... I'm so embarrassed."
"There's nothing to be embarrassed about."
Yi Rongqun smiled and said, "You came at the perfect time. We have guests at home today, and these are leftovers from dinner."
"As long as you don't mind it being leftovers."
Ran Qiaojun: "No, I don't mind. Such delicious food can't be found anywhere else. How dare I despise it?"
"Don't be polite, let's eat."
Liu Guoxiang smiled gently and kindly, "The food won't taste good if it gets cold."
“Hey.”
Ran Qiaojun agreed and started eating with big mouthfuls, looking like she had been hungry for days and nights.
After taking two bites, she asked again embarrassedly, "Liu Yao Niang, Aunt Fan, have you all eaten yet?"
"Don't worry, we've eaten it."
Fan Yadi smiled and stood up. "You eat first. I'll go and settle the other person who wants to stay at home."
Without waiting for Ran Qiaojun to reply, he had already climbed up Yangkan and was walking towards his home.
Yi Rongkun also took this opportunity to pull his mother's hand and whispered, "Mom."
"What's wrong, little sister?"
Liu Guoxiang was pulled by his daughter, and he lowered his head and asked his daughter in a low voice.
"Come back to the room with me. I have something important to tell you."
Yi Rongkun glanced at Ran Qiaojun and lowered his voice a few degrees, "We have to call Dad back."
"oh?"
Seeing his daughter so serious, Liu Guoxiang felt a little curious and solemn. "Okay, I'll ask your third brother to call your dad."
After she finished speaking, she called out to the outside: "Qiwen'er, go call your dad back. Mom has something to tell him."
"oh."
Yi Rongqi, who was hiding in the kitchen, heard his mother's instructions, turned around and ran out of the house.
After a while, Yi Zhongxiang and his youngest son entered the house one after another.
He first smiled and nodded politely at Ran Qiaojun as a greeting.
Then he turned to his wife and young daughter and said, "Guoxiang, Qiwener said you called me for something?"
"Um."
Liu Guoxiang picked up the little girl and walked towards the room, saying, "Come in, I want to tell you something."
After the three people entered the room and closed the door, he went out in the dark to take out the solar light and turned it on.
Only then did Liu Guoxiang look at his little girl with an inquiring look.
Seeing this, Yi Zhongxiang looked at the little girl inquiringly: "Is there something you want to say?"
Although it was a question, he said it with great certainty.
"Mom and Dad, Tongtong said that someone has been sent from above to protect us, and they've already arrived."
Yi Rongkun recounted the conversation between him and the system, as well as his speculation about Ran Qiaojun.
When the couple heard their little girl's words, they looked at each other in confusion: "Little sister, are you sure?"
Yi Rongkun nodded: "At least she is one of them."
"Zhongxiang, what do you think we should do?"
Liu Guoxiang was a little hesitant for a moment, "They are here to protect our little sister. We can't let her always squeeze in with my eldest sister-in-law, right?"
"The main thing is, what reason do we have to keep people here?"
Yi Zhongxiang thought more, "That girl doesn't look very old, but she's not young either."
"When she met you and your sister-in-law, she said she was going to Lion City. Now that we're leaving her here, how are we going to explain this to her brothers and sisters-in-law?"
Liu Guoxiang hesitated and said, "How about inviting them in so we can discuss this together?"
"Since she can think of a way to get close to our house, she should also be able to stay here reasonably."
Upon hearing this, Yi Zhongxiang frowned slightly, obviously thinking about this issue seriously.
He pondered for a moment and then said, "Let's not rush. Let's see what happens first."
"If this girl is really sent by the higher-ups to protect me, then she must have found a way to stay here."
"We just have to make sure she means no harm to my little sister."
Liu Guoxiang nodded, but she was still a little worried: "I'm just afraid that if she isn't, then we'll be letting a wolf into the house."
Yi Zhongxiang patted his wife's shoulder and comforted her: "Don't worry, I will pay more attention to her."
"Besides, my little sister is not that easy to fool. She has her own judgment and is protected by Tongtong."
Having said that, the couple both turned their eyes to their little girl.
Yi Rongkun listened to his parents' discussion, blinked his eyes and hesitated, "Dad, don't we need to ask that sister first?"
"You can't ask directly."
Yi Zhongxiang taught his little girl, "What if she isn't? If you ask this, won't you reveal your secret?"
As he spoke, he looked towards the door, as if he could see through the closed door and see Ran Qiaojun who was eating outside.
"Yes,"
Yi Zhongxiang suddenly thought of something, "Why don't we let that girl stay at our house tonight, and I'll go and squeeze in with Quan Wen'er and Qi Wen'er."
"She stays here and sleeps with you and your daughter."
"If she really is here to protect my younger sister, then she should have revealed some information to us. Otherwise, if we don't cooperate with her, it will be difficult for her to do her job."
Liu Guoxiang thought this was a good idea, so she nodded in agreement: "Alright, but this lamp can't be used for the time being. We have to confirm her origins first."
After the couple discussed it, they felt relieved.
Liu Guoxiang stood up, found the oil lamp that had not been used in the room for a long time, lit it, and turned off and hid the solar lamp.
Then he said, "I'll go say hello to my sister-in-law. You take my younger sister to the main hall and sit down."
"Um."
Yi Zhongxiang bent down and picked up the little girl, "Let's go and greet the guests."
The room was dimly lit under the oil lamp, and none of them were used to it for a while.
Fortunately, after a while, I got used to the light.
The three of them opened the door and came out. The swaying oil lamp inside the door flickered, sometimes bright and sometimes dim, which was very consistent with the characteristics of the Shuzhou countryside at that time.
At this time, Ran Qiaojun had finished a large bowl of food and was about to get up to wash the dishes.
But Yi Rongjun stopped him: "You don't have to wash it, I'll take it back and wash it."
"How can this be so embarrassing?"
Ran Qiaojun was really embarrassed now and wanted to insist, "I'll wash it and you can take it back."
“No, no.”
Yi Rongqun reached out and grabbed the bowl, "Are you full? I'll get you some more."
"I'm full, thank you, sister."
In order to show that she was really full, Ran Qiaojun burped in a very indecent way.
Then he smiled embarrassedly: "Sister, you heard me, I am really full. Thank you for your hospitality."
"You're welcome."
Yi Rongqun smiled and waved. Just then, he heard the door open. He turned around and said hello to Yi Zhongxiang and his wife: "Uncle Yao and Aunt Yao, I'm going home first."
"Let's go back."
Liu Guoxiang smiled and said, "By the way, have you settled all the guests at home?"
"If you haven't settled in yet, you can arrange for a female guest to live with us."
"Tonight, your uncle and Quan Wen'er and Qi Wen'er will be sharing a room. We can accommodate this young lady in our room, and there's room for one or two more."
"Yeah, didn't you say that this sister should go live with Auntie?"
Yi Rongqun was a little surprised, "My aunt will also live with my aunt."
"It's because your eldest aunt is going to live with your eldest mother that your uncle and I think it would be better to let this girl live with us."
Liu Guoxiang looked at Ran Qiaojun and said, "Miss, just squeeze in with us mother and daughter, is that okay?"
"No problem."
When Ran Qiaojun heard this arrangement, she felt more at ease.
Her original target was Yi Rongkun's family.
Now that I can live in the same room with them, mother and daughter, there is no reason for me to refuse.
"It's settled. Rongqun, go home and tell your parents now."
Yi Zhongxiang made the decision, "We'll make arrangements for the guests at home. If that doesn't work out, you can just arrange for someone to come to our house."
"There's room for one more person here, Seharu and Seta."
Mou Decong also laughed and said, "If it's a child, they can squeeze in two."
"Well, I'll go back and ask."
Yi Rongqun didn't stay here for long and turned around and walked out.
Liu Guoxiang said to Ran Qiaojun, "Miss, please sit here for a while. I'll go tell my sister-in-law that you won't be staying at her house tonight."
"Thank you for your hard work, senior."
At this time, there was no one else in the Yi family, so Ran Qiaojun didn't have so many scruples when speaking. She stood up and said something politely, then hesitated and said, "Senior, please go and get busy first."
"I will discuss something with you two later."
Hearing her say this, Yi Zhongxiang and his wife looked at each other and saw the meaning of "as expected" in each other's eyes.
"Hey, sit down first."
Liu Guoxiang didn't say much, turned around and went to his sister-in-law's house from Yangkan.
When Yi Zhongju saw his brother and sister-in-law passing by his house, he wanted to ask something, but when he thought about the owner of the incident who was still there, he swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue.
After hesitating for a moment, he brought his son Yi Rongxin and a small stool to the youngest's house.
"Third brother, Rong Xin, come and sit down."
Seeing the father and son coming down, Yi Zhongxiang quickly put his daughter down and stood up to greet his brother and nephew.
"Ahhhhhhhhhh."
When Yi Rongxin saw his uncle and cousins, he quickly and happily gestured to greet them and nodded politely to Ran Qiaojun.
Ran Qiaojun responded politely with a smile and gestured a few times.
Seeing that neither of them could understand each other's gestures, they could only smile good-naturedly and give up communicating.
Yi Zhongju sat down and went straight to the point, asking Ran Qiaojun, "What's your last name, young lady?"
"No need to mention your surname, Ran."
Facing this skinny old man, Ran Qiaojun was actually reluctant to lie.
"Your earlier getting lost was all fake, right?"
Yi Zhongju was still somewhat wary of this person.
Since his brother's family is too embarrassed to say it out loud, he will be the bad guy.
As soon as he said this, except for Yi Rongkun and Yi Zhongxiang, the rest of the young people looked at Ran Qiaojun in surprise.
Ran Qiaojun didn't expect that this old man, who looked skinny but actually had sharp eyes, would be so direct, and she was stunned.
Then he smiled calmly: "Good eyesight, you can see it all."
As soon as these words came out, not only the young people present, but even Yi Zhongxiang, who had just held his little girl in his arms again, looked at her with some surprise.
Facing the various looks from the crowd, Ran Qiaojun bowed slightly and said, "Sorry to trouble you."
Then she looked at Yi Zhongxiang and said, "But don't worry, two seniors. I have no ill will towards you."
"On the contrary, my arrival will bring countless benefits to your place."
Yi Zhongxiang met the woman's gaze and came to a conclusion in his heart. He then smiled and said, "Whether there is malicious intent or not is not something you can tell with your mouth."
"We in the Yi family don't judge people by appearances."
While speaking, he lightly touched the foot of his third brother Yi Zhongju, reminding him not to ask any more questions.
Yi Zhongju received his brother's hint, smiled and said nothing more.
As long as the youngest family knows what's going on, that's enough.
Yi Zhongxiang continued, "It's really too late now. A girl like you shouldn't travel at night. You should stay here for the night."
"Don't worry, if there's anything, we can talk about it later."
After hearing what her father said, Yi Rongying couldn't help but look at her father and younger sister in confusion, and then looked at Ran Qiaojun whose temperament suddenly changed.
I always feel like there's something I don't quite understand here.
But this person will live in the same room with them at night, and I'm sure she will understand something then.
So I didn't say anything.
When Yi Ronghua heard what his father and the Third Master said, and then looked at the woman who had looked like a weak young wife a moment ago but had suddenly turned into someone he didn't recognize, the young man couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart.
This...isn't it too scary?!
