Chapter 1046: Jie De: I miss you so much, Ying!
Just when Candice was about to take Shao Yun and his group into the village, a familiar figure appeared on the street of Aru Village.
Jade is looking for Candice.
However, when she caught a glimpse of a familiar figure out of the corner of her eye, she felt like she was nailed to the spot.
Although her eyes were still covered with the Gilded Brigade's eye patch, she could still recognize the figure she had been thinking about day and night at a glance.
"fluorescent?"
Jade murmured, and the next second she pounced on Ying like a big dog that had broken free from its leash, wrapping her arms tightly around her waist, almost hanging on her, her voice filled with uncontrollable ecstasy.
"Ying! Paimon! It's really you! I missed you so much!"
Paimon was frightened by the sudden noise and screamed "Ah". He floated into the air and circled around for a long time before he recognized Jade.
"Jade? You scared me to death!"
Ying was hugged so tightly that she almost couldn't breathe. She looked down at Jade, who was buried in her shoulder like a big, happy puppy. She was stunned for several seconds before raising her hand and gently patting her back.
"Jade, long time no see. How have you been in Aru Village these past couple of years?"
Jade rubbed her head against her shoulder, and her hair tickled her neck.
"Sister Candice is so kind to me. The village grandmother even taught me how to weave a carpet!"
She suddenly looked up, and her eyes under the eye mask seemed to flash with a fierce light.
"But I miss you even more! What happened to the villain who kidnapped you? Was he chopped into pieces and fed to the desert vultures?"
Ying choked when asked, and her mouth twitched when she thought of the miserable state of Wendy being blown into a wind slime.
She coughed dryly twice and mumbled, "Ah... How should I put it? He's already dead, so it's considered retribution."
When Jade heard that the murderer who kidnapped Ying was dead, she was so happy that she rubbed against Ying's arms again, hugged her waist and shook her, and said excitedly:
"That's great! This is what the bad guys deserve, hehe!"
Candice looked at Jade, who was inseparable from Ying, and raised her hand to touch her forehead helplessly.
Jade is good in everything except being with girls, especially Ying...
"Okay, okay, stop blocking the entrance and talking. Let's go inside first. Dinner is almost cold."
"I know, Sister Candice!" Jade made a face at her, but did not let go of Ying. She half-pulled and half-dragged her towards the village, chattering non-stop.
"Ying, you don't know, but I have so much to tell you. New sea buckthorns have grown on the sand dunes behind Aru Village. They're so sweet. I'll take you to pick some tomorrow!"
Ying was pulled forward by her and could only look back and smile helplessly at Shao Yun and the others, but her pace involuntarily quickened to follow Jie De.
Is my wife going to be kidnapped by a lesbian? No way...
……
Candice temporarily took Shao Yun's family to the village chief's house.
The village chief's house is more like a small guesthouse than a residence...
Dinner was served on the long table in the house. A large pot of stewed meat was gleaming with oil, ceramic bowls were filled with thick date porridge, and sesame-sprinkled flatbreads were piled up like a small mountain.
During the meal, Shen He and Jie De sat on Ying's left and right, and were very affectionate with her.
Shen He quietly put meat into Ying's bowl, his eyes falling on her face from time to time to make sure if she had eaten well.
Jade was shoveling the porridge in her bowl while chattering about interesting things in Aru Village, but her eyes were glued to the pancake in Ying's hand. When she saw her take a bite, she took one too, smiling with satisfaction.
Ying felt uneasy being stared at by both sides. She stirred the porridge bowl with the spoon in her hand. She felt like a piece of tender grass being stared at by two lambs, and she had to chew it carefully.
Paimon didn't have such concerns. She was holding a pancake that was bigger than her face, her mouth was stuffed full, and she didn't even bother to wipe the greasy drops on her cheeks. She looked like she was obsessed with food.
While eating, Paimon mumbled incoherently, "This stew... is even more delicious than the stew at Fontaine..."
After all, Xumi is a place rich in spices. Just throw the spices into the pot and even the stewed insoles will smell delicious!
As for the baby "Xi", she was left in the care of her father, "Shao Yun"...
Shao Yun bent down and kissed his daughter's soft head, feeling sweet in his heart.
During this period of travel, Xi was held in the arms of Shen He and Ying most of the time, and as a father, he always felt that he had not held him enough.
At this moment, holding the soft little body in my arms and listening to her babbling laughter, even the food on the table is not so tempting anymore.
He simply put down his chopsticks and concentrated on amusing his daughter, poking her little feet gently with his fingers, which made Xi laugh even more happily, and she clenched his fingers with her little fists and refused to let go.
As for eating, forget it. It’s not as important as amusing your own daughter!
……
At the dinner table, Jade was using a wooden spoon to stir the food in her bowl when she suddenly heard Ying say that she wanted to settle down in Nata. The spoon in her hand hit the side of the bowl with a clang.
She raised her head, her eyes seeming to widen under the eye patch. "Are you going to live in Nata?"
Ying paused as she picked up the food and nodded, "Yes, it's already been planned. We'll be leaving in a few days."
Jade's mouth corners unconsciously turned down, like a puppy drenched in rain. She poked the rice in the bowl with a spoon, her voice as low as a mosquito's hum.
"Hmm... Why don't you stay in Aru Village? My room is quite big, I can spare half of it for you guys."
"Ah?" The wooden spoon in Ying's hand almost fell on the table. She looked at Jade's serious profile, and her cheeks instantly felt a little hot.
Why is she still so direct in her speech?
Jade didn't notice her embarrassment. Instead, she grabbed Ying's wrists with both hands and shook them gently like a big, spoiled puppy.
"Can't we just rest a few more days in Aru Village? I have so much to say to you..."
Ying looked at the passionate Jade and felt complicated. Jade was too enthusiastic towards her and she could hardly resist.
Ying looked towards Shao Yun for help, but she saw her husband lowering his head to tease his daughter, pinching Xi's little hand with his fingers and shaking it back and forth, not paying any attention to what was happening here.
She had no choice but to speak: "This... We have already greeted the people over there..."
"Burp!" Paimon swallowed the last mouthful of bibimbap, wiped his mouth with the back of his hand, and seeing Ying's embarrassment, he quickly interrupted.
"Jade, don't worry! If you want to play with Ying, you can come to Nata to find us when you have time. It's not like we'll never see each other again. The barbecue in Nata is delicious. I'll ask Shao Yun to roast a whole lamb for you!"
Jade was stunned by the idea of "Nata" and "roasted whole lamb". She let go of Ying's hand, her fingers unconsciously curling the corner of her clothes, and whispered, "Want to go to Nata?"
Paimon nodded vigorously, flew in front of Jade and gestured excitedly:
"That's right! We'll open a big ranch in Nata and raise lots of furry little animals! And Nata isn't that far from Aru Village!"
"Jade, it should be convenient for you to come find us!"
Seeing that Paimon had said it so comprehensively, Ying quickly smiled and nodded in agreement: "That's right, I'll take you to have some fun in Nata then, how about that?"
After she finished speaking, she turned to look at Shao Yun, who was holding the child, and with a light cough, reminded him, "Are you right, husband?"
Shao Yun was lowering his head to tease Xi in his arms. When he heard Ying's voice, he raised his head and blinked blankly. His mind was full of his daughter's thoughts and he didn't hear what they were saying at all.
"Ah? Oh, yes, yes!" He nodded quickly, his gaze falling back on his daughter's rosy face.
As for whether Shao Yun heard the conversation between Ying and Jie De, it is unknown... probably he didn't hear it.
In short, after receiving Shao Yun's reply, Ying smiled gently and turned to Jie De and said, "Look, my husband has said so, so don't worry, Jie De."
Jade listened to the word "husband" slipping out of Ying's mouth naturally. The intimacy in the tone made her throat couldn't help but make a soft "humming" sound, as if something was blocking it.
Her fingers gripping the spoon tightened slightly, and she stared down at the bibimbap in the bowl. She pondered for a long moment before looking up and sighing heavily.
As expected, they are a real family, and I am at most just a good friend of Ying.
Wow, is this the tragedy of a lesbian meeting a straight woman?
They obviously get along so well together, but the other person already has someone else in his heart, and even the way he addresses her is so sweet that it makes him sick.
She secretly raised her eyes to glance at Ying, then quickly lowered her head, a little drama already beginning to unfold in her mind.
Woohoo, I feel like I’ve been heartbroken.
"Hmm... okay," Jade sniffed, a hint of discouragement in her voice, "Then I'll come play with you guys when I'm free."
Ying looked at her drooping shoulders and couldn't help but reach out and gently touch the top of her head.
When my fingertips touched Jade's soft hair, I could feel her stiffen for a moment, then relax.
Ying smiled like a little sun.
"Well, don't hang your head. I'll write to you as soon as the ranch is built."
Jade felt her heart warmed by this sudden tenderness, and the slight sense of loss she had just felt evaporated in an instant like dew melted by the sun.
She suddenly raised her head and smiled broadly and foolishly.
"Hehe, Ying, you're so nice to me!"
Shao Yun was holding Xi in his arms. He vaguely heard the noise over here. He looked up and saw Yingzheng and Jie De laughing happily, so he continued to lower his head to entertain the child.
No matter what they say, as long as my daughter and wife are happy, that is more important than anything else.
