After a few breaths...
Bibi Dong slammed the table, laughing so hard that his shoulders couldn't stop shaking.
She covered her stomach with one hand and pointed at A-Yan with the other, her voice cracking with laughter:
"Hahaha!"
"I really didn't expect, I really didn't expect, that elf-like girl Ah Yin, hahahaha, would teach A-Yan to say such things! Hahahahaha!"
"Okay, okay." Zhao Linchuan patted A-Yan's back gently, comforting the little guy who was a little overwhelmed. There was a gentle smile on his face, but his tone made A-Yan in his arms feel a chill on the back of his neck, "I haven't seen you, Aunt Ah Yin, for a long time."
"After lunch, daddy will leave to see her."
"A-Yan Do you want to go with daddy?"
"Uh..." A-Yan was stunned when he heard this.
She raised her little face and looked straight at Zhao Linchuan.
There was a gentle smile on that familiar, loving face, and the eyes were crooked, looking exactly the same as usual.
But no matter how she looked at it, she felt something was wrong.
There seems to be something hidden in this smile.
She couldn't tell what it was, but she could feel that it was dangerous, very dangerous, and completely different from the cold face her mother had when she was angry.
A-Yan shuddered in his heart.
She remembered that every time her father went out with a smile like this, when he came back, Aunt Ah Yin would always lie in bed for several days before going to the ground.
Although Aunt Ah Yin didn't look like she was suffering, and sometimes her face was even too rosy, A-Yan always felt that it must be very painful.
Daddy must be going to "beat" Aunt Ah Yin again!
"Dad..." A-Yan thought for a moment, held Zhao Linchuan's clothes with both small hands, and spoke cautiously, "Are you... going to hit Aunt Ah Yin again?"
"She is so pitiful..."
"??????" The smile on Zhao Linchuan's face froze instantly.
"Stop bullying her, okay?" A-Yan blinked his big watery eyes with a serious and sincere expression, as if he was pleading for a loved one who was in dire straits.
"Hahaha..." Bibi Dong's laughter became even louder, and he fell over Yan Lingji with laughter.
Yan Lingji covered his mouth, his shoulders shaking like chaff.
The corners of Jing Ni's mouth were also raised crazily. He looked away and couldn't bear to look directly.
The veins on Zhao Linchuan's forehead jumped. He took a deep breath and tried to maintain a smile, "A-Yan, when did I beat your aunt Ah Yin?"
"Huh?" A-Yan tilted his head, with a confused expression, "Then how did you bully her? Every time Aunt Ah Yin mentions you..."
"Cough cough cough!" Jing Ni coughed heavily several times, interrupting her daughter.
She stood up and stretched out her hand towards A-Yan: "A-Yan, come on, go to the kitchen with mother to see if the soup is ready."
"But..."
"No buts!" Jing Ni took her daughter out of Zhao Linchuan's arms and walked to the kitchen without saying a word.
Zhao Linchuan sat where he was, with a smile still on his face, but he looked stiff no matter what.
He turned to look at Yan Lingji and Bibi Dong, who were laughing so hard that they couldn't stand up straight.
"...Ah Yin." He gritted his teeth and read out the name in a low voice. His tone was so complex that it was difficult to describe, "What on earth have you taught A-Yan!"
Afternoon.
Spring Return Hall.
There were no patients at this hour, the lobby was quiet, and there was a faint fragrance of herbs floating in the air, which made people feel at ease.
Ah Yin was holding a feather duster and standing on tiptoes to reach the dust on the top drawer of the medicine cabinet.
Today she wore a light green thin shirt, with the cuffs rolled up to her forearms, revealing a section of her white wrists.
The feather duster swayed left and right in her hand, humming an unknown ditty in her mouth, and she seemed to be in a good mood.
At the other end of the lobby, several female doctors were sitting around a long wooden table.
There were few patients these days, so they were very busy, and they were gathering together to discuss the evening menu.
"If you ask me, make dumplings tonight, stuffed with leeks and eggs." A round-faced doctor smacked his lips and said.
"How to make dumplings? It's so troublesome." A tall and thin doctor next to him waved his hand, "I heard that there is a new braised pork shop in the West City. The braised pig trotters are so stewed that they fall off the bones after one bite..."
"You just know how to eat meat." The oldest doctor rolled his eyes at her and was about to say something when his peripheral vision suddenly glanced at the door.
"Ahem!"
A throat clearing sound came from the door. It was neither loud nor quiet, but it made the entire lobby instantly quiet.
Several female doctors turned their heads in unison.
Zhao Linchuan walked in wearing an ordinary sapphire blue silk shirt worn by a wealthy family, with a straight face and a frown.
"M-Master!" Several female doctors suddenly stood up.
The oldest female doctor was the first to come to her senses. A warm smile instantly appeared on her face. She bowed slightly and said, "Master, are you here to visit Madam again?"
Zhao Linchuan said "Hmm", lowered his chin, looked past them, and landed on Ah Yin behind the counter who was holding a feather duster and was frozen in place.
He said in a calm tone, "Let's take a look. That's it for today. You can go down and rest first."
"Thank you, sir!" The elderly doctor seemed to have received an amnesty, and the smile on his face almost stopped.
She bent down and shouted at Ah Yin at the top of her lungs, "Madam, let's take our leave first! You and the master can chat slowly!"
After saying that, she grabbed the new doctor next to her, who was still dazed in a daze, and walked out with the wind blowing at her feet.
"Come on, hurry up, we won't be able to buy food if it's too late." She urged in a low voice as she walked.
It wasn't until he left the gate of the Spring Return Hall and turned the corner that the elder doctor let go of his hand, took a long breath, and patted his chest.
"Sister Liu, why are we running away?" The young doctor was staggered and asked with a blank look on his face, "Didn't I just come to see my wife? Why are you so scared?"
"You girl, what do you know?" Dr. Liu wiped the sweat on his forehead with a handkerchief, looked back in the direction of the Spring Return Hall, and said with lingering fear, "Do you see the master's face today?"
"That face is longer than the old wild ginseng root in our medicine cabinet."
"Let me tell you, these two couples are Soul Master. If they get into a fight over a disagreement later, and we ordinary people are caught in the middle, even if Soul Skill is allowed to rub against each other for just a small amount of time, we will die or lose our skin!"
The young doctor turned pale when he heard this and nodded repeatedly.
"Why are you still standing there?" Dr. Liu grabbed her arm and continued walking forward, "Hurry up and buy the braised pig trotters. It's too late and people are robbing them all..."
That... the author is incompetent and can only make a single update...
I will finish writing it, so you can rest assured.
