My Beloved Super Fierce Wife-Chapter 147 you seem to have some misunderstandings about the word ’cute’.
Chapter 147: 147 you seem to have some misunderstandings about the word ’cute’.
Lin Xiaojing laughed.
The happiness that radiated from within her was so infectious, it made people take notice.
"Mhm," she nodded, happily saying, "It seems my mom doesn’t dislike me as much now; she even takes the initiative to talk to me..."
Sometimes she even showed concern for her, and Xiaojing was very content with that.
Lin Tang listened quietly, occasionally responding to her cousin.
She could feel her cousin’s exceptional joy.
When Lin Xiaojing had spoken her piece, Lin Tang asked, "Is your third aunt still setting up blind dates for you?"
She had experienced life in the modern age and was open-minded.
But Lin Xiaojing was a local born and bred.
At the mention of this topic by her cousin, her face turned as red as a monkey’s butt.
Such a question... was embarrassingly intimate.
During a previous moment of despair, she had blurted out such personal matters to Tangtang; now, however, she was sober and aware.
It was far too embarrassing!!
Yet, looking into her cousin’s clear eyes, Lin Xiaojing somehow felt that talking about this subject wasn’t such a big deal after all.
Her face flushed red.
Her head slightly bowed.
Her voice was very soft as she spoke.
"...my dad and my brother said there’s no rush, and it seems my mom isn’t in a hurry either, saying we should take our time to look."
Lin Tang nodded seriously.
"You’re only seventeen, still quite young, there really is no need to rush."
Lin Xiaojing looked at her cousin’s delicate little face, trying to pull off a stern expression like their uncle’s; the contrast was somewhat endearing.
She couldn’t help but laugh.
Lin Tang looked puzzled.
"...What are you laughing at?"
"I’m laughing because you’re cute," Lin Xiaojing said truthfully.
Lin Tang: "..."
What kind of nonsense! Can someone who can single-handedly pull doors off their hinges be called ’cute’?
You must have misunderstood the meaning of the word ’cute’.
Lin Tang furrowed her brow, helpfully suggesting,
"You might not be able to even look at the word ’cute’ straight in the future."
She was serious.
Prepare your heart!
Lin Xiaojing was puzzled, "Why? You are indeed adorable and look so delicate. Where did I go wrong?"
In her eyes, Tangtang was the cutest, and she wouldn’t tolerate any objections.
Not only cute but also impressive.
Lin Tang touched her smooth and delicate face, feeling that her cousin might not be wrong after all.
Skin cream is awesome.
It can make forty look like thirty.
She was only sixteen and with a little care, she was as fresh as a flower.
Cute is cute, isn’t it?
By the time she reached twenty, she would transform into a beautiful woman full of charm, and then being ’cute’ wouldn’t be an option for her anymore.
"Mm-hmm! You’re right, Sister Xiaojing, I am definitely adorable! Do you want to be like me?" Lin Tang’s eyes sparkled as she looked at Lin Xiaojing and spoke.
Although Sister Xiaojing was a bit dark-skinned, she had a lovely doll-like face with big eyes. If her skin were a bit fairer, she would definitely surpass her in cuteness.
Lin Xiaojing, unaware of her cousin’s thoughts, touched her own rough face.
"How could I be like you? You were born beautiful. Do you really think anyone can be like you?" she said with a playful laugh.
Yet a hint of sadness crept into her eyes.
Which girl doesn’t want to look pretty?
Especially when she remembered the blind date jerk who called her ’a piece of charcoal,’ it still affected Xiaojing’s mood.
Lin Tang noticed her cousin’s insincerity and pulled out a jar of skin cream.
"Take this, apply it and I guarantee you’ll be adorable too."
Lin Xiaojing received it curiously, "What’s this?"
The jar looked like something her second uncle had made.
"It’s skin cream, for your face," Lin Tang replied.
"Where did it come from?"
"I made it."
Two young women, one already adorable and the other about to become so, chatted intimately inside the house.
Li Xiuli’s dumplings were also ready.
She stepped out of the kitchen.
She lowered her voice and said to Lin Lu in the courtyard, "Hurry up and call those rascals back for dinner. They learn to ride a bike and forget their way home, do they!"
Lin Lu set down his axe and nodded.
With hands behind his back, he headed out.
As soon as she stepped outside, she saw her three sons and four grandsons not far off.
She raised her voice and announced, "... time to come back for a meal."
Sheesh!
Not a single one of them seemed to know they were hungry.
Neither the older ones nor the younger ones had any idea.
Li Xiuli, upon hearing this loud call, felt a black line appearing on her forehead.
She had lowered her voice for fear that Xiaojing would hear it and then go straight home...
Now look what happened...
Not a bit of marital tacit understanding.
Lin Qingshan, hearing the call, responded and pushed his bicycle towards home.
Lin Lu’s voice was high and resonant.
Lin Xiaojing, who was inside Lin Tang’s house, of course heard it.
She hurried to get up, "Ay, I should leave, otherwise, my mom will come looking for me."
With those words, she headed for the door.
She moved with such speed.
Lin Tang stood stunned for a moment, then hurriedly followed her, trying to persuade her to stay.
As soon as Lin Xiaojing stepped out of the room, she saw Lin Lu.
"Uncle Lin, I’ll be going now..."
Before she could finish her words, Lin Lu, with a stern face.
"Going where? Eat before you leave."
Li Xiuli, who had just fished out the dumplings, heard the conversation and also came out of the kitchen.
"Your Uncle Lin is right, have a meal here before you go."
The scent from the kitchen made Xiaojing’s mouth water involuntarily.
However, she felt too embarrassed to take advantage of Uncle Lin’s hospitality and, after repeatedly declining, charged toward the door like a young calf.
The three Lin brothers, along with a few kids, just entered the courtyard.
Li Xiuli hurriedly said, "Old Second’s wife, stop your Sister Xiaojing."
As she spoke,
She went back into the kitchen.
Xiaojing wanted to leave, but her arm was firmly grasped by Zhou Mei, making it impossible to move.
The young girl was almost in tears from frustration.
Never seen such insistence on having someone stay for a meal...
Lin Tang, seeing this, gave his sister-in-law a thumbs up.
Zhou Mei was grinning so much that her back teeth showed.
Oh my, the young lady is getting more and more lovable!
When Li Xiuli came out again, she was holding a large bowl of dumplings.
She forcefully handed them to Lin Xiaojing.
"If you don’t want to eat at our place, I won’t insist, so you might as well take them with you. Don’t be shy, there’s enough for your grandparents and your Uncle as well..." Li Xiuli said.
The first batch of dumplings was intended to be sent to Tangtang’s grandparents and the other two branches of the family.
It was rare to make something delicious at home; it was meant for everyone to try.
Lin Xiaojing looked at the large bowl of dumplings that Aunt Xiuli had thrust into her hands and felt a bit overwhelmed.
They were so fragrant!
She could even smell the meat in them.
Moreover, the dumplings in the bowl were pinched at the top, this...
"... Aunt Xiuli, I..." Lin Xiaojing began to speak.
Li Xiuli cut her off, "Don’t dilly-dally, we don’t go in for that nonsense here, now hurry on home."
After that, she turned toward the three Lin brothers.
"... Don’t just stand there, go wash your hands quickly and take the dumplings to your grandparents and Uncle."
The three stunned Lins, having just packaged the dumplings at home, snapped back to attention.
They moved as if their feet were on fire wheels.
Pouring water.
Washing hands.
They were exceedingly efficient.
Lin Xiaojing was left dumbfounded.
When she snapped back to reality, she saw Lin Qingshui and Lin Qingmu each holding a large bowl, ready to take dumplings to their grandparents’ and Uncle’s house.
The dumplings in their large bowls were exactly like the ones in her hands.
They were pinched at the top.
Emanating steam, they looked so tempting that one couldn’t help but salivate at the sight.
Lin Qingmu patted his cousin’s head and laughed, "Quick, get going, why the daze? It’s time to go home and eat dumplings."
Lin Xiaojing uttered an "Oh," and hurriedly followed her two cousins.
Two ’Qings’ and one ’Jing’ left the family home.
Upon reaching the gate, they ran into villagers who were excitedly discussing the entertaining affair of the Lin Family learning to ride bicycles.
