My Happy Daily Life After Being Reborn-Chapter 280 - 10 Drowsiness_2

Wan Quan had gone to the Ministry of Defense, Xu Ji and Nannan were both at school, leaving only Han Shouzhen and the visiting Lin Xiaoguai at home.

"Do you really want to manage that farm?" While they were cleaning up the kitchen together, Han Shouzhen opened the conversation.

"What’s wrong?" Lin Xiaoguai placed the washed dishes into the cabinet.

"It’s hard to imagine." Han Shouzhen said, turning her head while washing her hands: "A college graduate like you really going to farm?"

"I’m just managing it..." Lin Xiaoguai paused, feeling somewhat embarrassed: "Actually, I’m not skilled at management, I’ll probably have to learn everything from scratch." She didn’t think managing a farm would be too difficult, especially with the help of an intelligent management system. She just needed to establish proper rules; then, the farm operations could be entrusted to the system. She believed that after a busy start, work would become more routine and she could relax.

"You’re so smart, Wanwan, there shouldn’t be any problems," Han Shouzhen sincerely said.

Lin Xiaoguai pursed her lips and smiled, "Big sister, you should hold off on praising me for now. Otherwise, if I don’t do well, I’ll be mortified when I think back to your words today."

Han Shouzhen’s eyes smiled, and she opened her mouth as if wanting to say something, but ultimately no words came out.

"What did you say?" After a few days, when the commotion among the ladies in the courtyard had finally quieted down, Lin Xiaoguai was lounging carefree in the yard, basking in the sun, when Jiang Xiaomei ran to her with a distressed expression, sharing a piece of news that shocked her.

"Aidang came looking for us," Jiang Xiaomei said, troubled.

"How is that possible?" Lin Xiaoguai frowned: "The Capital is so big, your family doesn’t have much contact with the old home, it wouldn’t be easy to find you. Could it be your Uncle leaked your address in the Capital?"

"No," Jiang Xiaomei said with a bitter smile: "Aidang went to our college to ask around, then found our kindergarten."

"After you’ve already had a falling out, what does he intend to do?" Lin Xiaoguai’s expression darkened.

Jiang Xiaomei’s life was already entirely different from her previous one, and she didn’t want Luo Aidang’s presence to impact her any further.

She didn’t fear anything else, just the possibility that her in-laws would learn of the existence of Luo Aidang as a "child husband," which could lead to family conflicts.

"I’m not sure; he only said he wanted to ask me for help to find a job," Jiang Xiaomei said with a conflicted look.

Regarding Luo Aidang, she felt a mix of hatred, fear, and caution, but to say she felt no emotion at all would be lying.

"What happened to that woman he was involved with?" Lin Xiaoguai suddenly thought to ask.

"What?" Jiang Xiaomei paused, then understanding, replied: "The woman? I didn’t see her; he probably came alone."

"Forget that for now, where is he?" Lin Xiaoguai’s expression changed, "You didn’t bring him home, did you?"

"No, no," Jiang Xiaomei quickly waved her hand, "I booked him a hotel room and told him I’d find him in a couple of days."

Lin Xiaoguai first breathed a sigh of relief, then asked: "Does Yi Feng know about this?"

"Not yet, I sent Aidang to the hotel and then came to find you. I even took leave from the headteacher," Jiang Xiaomei shook her head. Luo Aidang’s arrival had left her at a loss, and she subconsciously turned to Lin Xiaoguai for guidance.

"Listen, when you go back, find Yi Feng and tell him the situation, then both of you go to meet Luo Aidang and try to send him back," Lin Xiaoguai instructed.

Honesty is most important between husband and wife, especially when Luo Aidang once had such a sensitive role.

As for Luo Aidang wanting a job, Lin Xiaoguai sneered inwardly. Did he think the Capital was such an easy place? With Luo Aidang not having finished middle school, how could he expect to find a job just like that? As for Yi Feng, the head of a police squadron, although he had some influence, it wasn’t to be wasted on unrelated people.

"What if he doesn’t want to go back?" Jiang Xiaomei asked, worried.

From what she remembered, Luo Aidang wasn’t the type to listen to others.

Lin Xiaoguai frowned upon hearing this, squinting her eyes and whispering in her ear: "If he refuses to go back, then have Yi Feng..."

After hearing her words, Jiang Xiaomei’s eyes widened in disbelief, "Wouldn’t that be illegal?"

"Silly girl," Lin Xiaoguai tapped her forehead lightly, "It’s just a verbal threat, not actually doing anything—how is that illegal?"

"What if Aidang holds a grudge?" Jiang Xiaomei hesitated.

"You worry about him holding a grudge?" Lin Xiaoguai glared at her impatiently, "Do you think he doesn’t resent you now? As long as your parents haven’t given him the Jiang family’s wealth, he will always hold a grudge against you."

Jiang Xiaomei’s expression turned solemn at these words, and she nodded firmly in agreement.

If this were before, perhaps she might have been too kind-hearted, but now that she had a son, even if not for herself, she ought to think for her child.

After seeing Jiang Xiaomei off, Lin Xiaoguai sighed and, losing interest in the waning sun, went back inside to pick up a book and read.

"Wanwan?"

Shen Chi returned home to find Lin Xiaoguai dozing on the windowsill. Hearing his voice, she was slow to react and half-heartedly opened her eyes, looking sleepy: "You’re back?"

"Yeah." Shen Chi extended his hand to hold her in his embrace and touched her forehead, concerned: "You don’t have a fever, why have you started to feel sleepy?"

"It’s nothing, I just finished reading a book. I was resting on the windowsill, and I accidentally fell asleep," Lin Xiaoguai reached out and hugged his neck.

Shen Chi, still a bit worried, measured her temperature against his forehead to confirm she didn’t have a fever before he relaxed and asked: "Do you want me to cook dinner?" He had come home early today, and it was just past four o’clock.

"No need, I’m not busy with anything," Lin Xiaoguai said with a chuckle, kissing his cheek.

Shen Chi returned her kiss, his voice soft: "Then I’ll assist you."
