Chapter 93
93 Feeling Malice
Luo Cheng saw the change in Li Xiaoran’s expression, so he walked over with the water.
“Husband, the vegetables we cooked are almost gone. Help me wash them! There aren’t any customers now.” Li Xiaoran said with a smile.
Luo Cheng nodded and went to the water source with Li Xiaoran.
The water source was in the drainage ditch. No one was using water around, so only Li Xiaoran and Luo Cheng were there.
In order not to alarm the four people who were eating the noodles, Li Xiaoran wrote a few words in the wet mud.
“The woman knows me and asked me for help!”
When Luo Cheng saw this line of words, he calmly smoothed it with his hand and continued to wash the vegetables.
“Don’t worry! Don’t intervene. I’ll handle it!” Luo Cheng lowered his voice and only said these words. Then, he stood up. “By the way, wife, there aren’t enough vegetable leaves! There are still some at home. I’ll go back and get some now!”
Li Xiaoran knew that Luo Cheng was thinking of a way to save her, so she nodded.
“Then hurry up and come back! If there are more customers later, you’ll be too busy!” Li Xiaoran reminded him.
“Okay! I understand!” Luo Cheng nodded and walked in the direction of home.
The four of them quickly finished their noodles.
After the old lady paid for the noodles, she praised Li Xiaoran’s cooking.
“Little girl, you’re really good at cooking! I’ve eaten noodles for so many years, but the noodles you cooked are the best!”
“Thank you for your praise, Granny. If you like it, come and take care of business when you pa.s.s by here in the future!” Li Xiaoran replied with a smile.
“There will be!” The old lady looked at Li Xiaoran and said with a smile.
For some reason, Li Xiaoran felt a sense of malice at this moment.
Could it be that the other party had designs on her?
Thinking of this possibility, Li Xiaoran immediately became vigilant.
Soon, the four of them got into a carriage and drove away.
After the four of them left, Li Xiaoqing walked over.
“Sister, I keep feeling that these four people aren’t good people! Anyway, I feel uncomfortable every time I look at them!”
When Li Xiaoran heard her sister’s words, she thought for a moment and said, “Be careful these few days. Don’t be alone and stay with us wherever you go! Move in and sleep with me at night!”
Li Xiaoqing nodded and the panic in her heart dissipated a little. Then, she continued to clean up the table.
On the other side, after Luo Cheng left, he called a secret guard out.
After Luo Cheng gave him a few instructions, the secret guard left.
After that, Luo Cheng went to the house to get vegetables and then walked back.
Seeing that the four people left, Luo Cheng placed the vegetables by the stove.
“Have they left?”
Li Xiaoran nodded and pulled Luo Cheng to the side. She told Luo Cheng about the malice she had felt previously and what Xiao Qing had said.
Luo Cheng frowned when he heard this.
“Don’t worry, the other party won’t cause any trouble!”
Li Xiaoran nodded and then thought of something. “Husband, what do you think these people do?”
“They can’t be good people!” Luo Cheng didn’t elaborate. “Don’t worry! If they really dare to have designs on us, I’ll teach them a lesson!”
For some reason, Luo Cheng’s words made Li Xiaoran feel very at ease.
Soon, after a busy day, the dough was used up. The family packed up and went home.
Originally, Li Xiaoran wanted to make dinner, but Zhao Xiu said that she wanted to try making braised pork.
Last time, Li Xiaoran had taught them how to do it. This time, Zhao Xiu wanted to try it herself.
Li Xiaoran thought for a moment and agreed. She went to the courtyard to sit down and rest before playing with the dogs at home.
Big Yellow came to Li Xiaoran’s side and obediently rubbed its head against Li Xiaoran’s leg.
“Big Yellow! I rarely see you these days! Where have you been?” Li Xiaoran touched Big Yellow’s head and asked with a smile.
“Howl!” Big Yellow barked, as if it was answering Li Xiaoran.
At this moment, Big Yellow raised its claws and pointed at a round little fellow walking over not far away.
Li Xiaoran looked over and immediately laughed.
“Father, Mother, is this the little dog that followed Father previously?!”
Li Shun happened to have finished chopping the firewood and looked over. He took a closer look and smiled.
“It’s really this one!” Li Shun walked over and picked up the round little dog. “Where did you go? I feel that you’ve become much stronger after two days!”
“Howl, howl, howl.” The little puppy made cute sounds and even stuck out its tongue to lick Li Shun’s hand.
Luo Cheng walked over and glanced at the little dog. When he saw Big Yellow running to Li Shun’s side and squatting down, he understood something.
“Looks like this little dog is also a capable dog! Otherwise, Big Yellow wouldn’t be so protective of it! It seems that our family will have another capable dog!”
“What do you mean?” Li Xiaoran asked in confusion.
“You don’t know, but Big Yellow brought all the dogs here! At first, I thought that Big Yellow brought them back randomly, but later I found out that it wasn’t the case. Some dogs ran over on their own and were chased away if they didn’t get Big Yellow’s approval! The dogs that Big Yellow approved of are all dogs with their own special abilities!” Luo Cheng explained.
When everyone heard this, they looked at Big Yellow in surprise. No one expected Big Yellow to have such an ability!
Big Yellow also heard Luo Cheng’s praise. At this moment, it sat there proudly and enjoyed everyone’s attention.
When Li Xiaoran saw Big Yellow’s look, she laughed.
“No wonder Big Yellow is so impressive. It’s a really capable dog!”
Big Yellow barked, looking very pleased with itself.
At this moment, the little dog, who was struggling in Li Shun’s hand, suddenly stopped struggling. Instead, it stared in a direction and howled.
When Big Yellow heard the puppy’s bark, it stood up and stared in a direction with all its attention.
Luo Cheng’s expression immediately became serious.
“Someone’s here! And there are many people! Li Xiaoran, quickly call everyone to hide in your room. If I don’t ask you to open the door, don’t come out!”
“No, let’s face it together!” Li Xiaoran shook her head and refused. “We’re family. Let’s face it together!”
“Yes, no matter what happens, we’ll face it together!” Li Shun said.
