Chapter 167: Darkness in front of eyes
Lingxi nodded: "I feel like I can sleep until tomorrow, I'm so sleepy."

Pei Yanning didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "That won't work. Dad promised your fourth brother that he would make sure you eat on time and watch you go out for a walk at night."

Lingxi smiled: "I don't know where Fourth Brother is. I heard that it takes a long time to travel on the road."

The next county!

Transportation is inconvenient now. For example, from Peijia Village to the town, if you are lucky, you can use an ox cart, but if you are unlucky, you have to rely on your own two feet, and it takes more than an hour to walk.

If you are lucky enough to catch the bus from the town to the county twice a day, that's fine. But if you are unlucky...

That would take a lot of time.

In fact, Lingxi should have gone with them, but she looked like this...

She only needs to sleep so much a day, and with such a big belly, it's difficult for her to bend over. Who dares to let her go out?

Pei Yanning comforted Lingxi's heart: "You don't know your fourth brother yet, even if he doesn't have the conditions, he will create them and won't put himself in a difficult position. Why do you need to worry about him?"

Lingxi smiled instantly.

"Go wash your face and go to bed. It's time for your nap." Pei Yanning urged her to go to rest.

Lingxi nodded, went back and brought back a thin quilt to cover the old lady, then took Minghui's hand and asked him to sleep with her.

Before going to bed, I thought of something and poked him: "No wetting the bed, you hear me?"

Minghui: “…”

His expression froze, he came back to his senses, and spoke stubbornly.

"How is that possible? Auntie, you are wronging me. I am not a child anymore. No, it is my uncle who wets the bed. I am not my uncle."

Lingxi: “…”

"Okay, okay, Minghui won't do that. Your aunt has wronged you."

Lingxi wiped away the tears from her laughter. This was probably the worst time Fourth Brother had been bullied in his life.

Lingxi was so sleepy that she was still smiling even when she fell asleep.

Minghui had never taken a nap. He waited until Lingxi fell asleep, then turned his head to look around. Feeling bored, he tiptoed out of bed.

Pei Yanning hadn't left yet. His eyes lit up and he looked at him eagerly...

It is obvious that he wants to go out with Pei Yanning again!
Pei Yanning nodded at him and took him with him when he left. However, before leaving, he called the old lady and told her that he had saved some for dinner.

There is such a thing as a biological clock.

Lingxi felt that she should have a sound sleep, but she woke up again at the time she usually woke up in the afternoon, which was around 3:30 or 4:00.

Lingxi sighed a little melancholy, but her mind was not as groggy as it was at noon, and she felt a little better.

But she just didn't want to think...

She stayed there until Pei Yanning came home, and then she reluctantly went out after remembering to watch the fun.

Pei Yanning saw Lingxi, her eyes sparkling, and knew that she was in a good mood. He asked, "What do you want to eat?"

What to eat
"Let's fry the shrimp!"

The big lobster I brought back last night has been kept in the bucket for quite some time. It won’t taste good if it’s kept for too long!
As for spicy food...

Lingxi couldn't help but think of the choking smell that filled the room in the morning. It was still uncomfortable to think about it now, and she just wanted to eat something light.

Pei Yanning nodded, rolled up his sleeves and started to clean up.

There was not much entertainment these days, and the fact that Lingxi cooked at noon had already been spread by a group of gossipers. There were many people who thought the same as Li Guihua's mother-in-law, and felt that the old lady could no longer bear to see Lingxi living a life of luxury.

But no one thought there was anything wrong with this.

It is normal for a married girl to be asked to cook two meals!

Everyone was just watching the fun with a smile, curious whether Lingxi would cook again that night. Some people even came back early to watch the scene.

However, I didn’t expect——

They waited and waited, until Pei Yanning came home from work, but they didn't see Lingxi come out to cook. Then they saw Pei Yanning take out the vegetables and cut them himself.

Everyone: "..."

!!!

After all this waiting, show them this.

Lingxi followed behind her own father, watching secretly, unable to hold back the smile in her eyes.

Pei Yanning was already very sensitive, and after stimulating his mental power, he became even more sensitive. He realized it later and found it funny: "Naughty."

The news of Lingxi being 'tortured' at noon had reached Jin Yuan. Jin Yuan originally wanted to come and take a look, but he unexpectedly saw Pei Yanning cooking, and Lingxi...she and a little kid were standing at the door watching the fun.

Jin Yuan: "..."

!!!

She silently gave Lingxi a thumbs up and turned to open the door of Jin Qingyao's house.

Pei Yanning looked at Lingxi in confusion.

Last time, people even rushed to help her cook.

Lingxi: “…”

"I don't understand either."

She really didn't know that Jin Yuan seemed very familiar with her.

She swore she had never sent out any wrong signals.

Moreover, because of Jin Qingyao, Lingxi was even more unwilling to get along with the Jin family.

Pei Yanning laughed: "Dad can't do anything about it, you can do whatever you want."

He looked helpless.

Jin Yuan...

It seems that he has no bad intentions towards Lingxi.

Pei Yanning didn't care much.

Lingxi touched her nose, feeling a little confused.

Pei Yanning thought of something: "Has your grandma slept all day? Didn't she sleep well last night?"

He still remembered that the old lady suffered from insomnia.

Lingxi shook her head: "No, but it may be because I didn't get enough rest recently, so I have to take it slow now."

Pei Yanning nodded.

The next morning, Pei Yanning went to work. Lingxi was half asleep and suddenly thought that if the old lady gave her scrambled eggs with peppers again, she would feel terrible.

She thought about it and cooked the dishes before the old lady got up. She cooked them in the hallway and then kept them warm on the stove in the house. The porridge below was cooked by Pei Yanning before she left.

She finished everything and then went back to catch up on her sleep.

However, just after seven o'clock, the old lady came into the room and woke Lingxi up.

"It's time to get up. It seems like you got up earlier yesterday than you do now. Hurry up and eat. Your dad made breakfast and it's still hot."

Lingxi only felt a buzzing in her ears.

Lingxi nodded.

"it is good."

It’s okay to eat and then sleep!

Lingxi told herself this. Since she slept with the old lady, she had a lot of clothes to wear when she slept, so she didn't need to go through the trouble of changing. She just rubbed her eyes and went to wash up.

Lingxi was severely sleep deprived. Her head was buzzing and her vision was dark. She felt dizzy and as if she was about to fall.

My stomach was still feeling churning and uncomfortable.

She just wanted to finish eating and go to bed now.

But today, the old lady is particularly energetic——

"Where should Lingxier pour the dishwashing water?"

"Where is Ling Xi'er wiping the tablecloth?"

Lingxi answered mechanically. She had no intention of thinking about whether she should take over the old lady's job of washing dishes and wiping the table.

She just wanted to lie down.

Seeing that the old lady seemed to be fine, she breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and prepared to go back to the room to continue sleeping, then she heard the old lady calling behind her.

"Where does Ling Xier go to wash clothes?"

"Ling Xier..."

Lingxi's body shook and her vision went dark.
