Chapter 667 Jiang Jue
Since going to town to buy new bedding, the sleep quality of the five people in the family, including Su Xin, has improved many times.
Although a thin layer of sheets cannot block the smell of the cotton underneath, after being exposed to the sun for several days, the smell of mothballs is actually not noticeable anymore.
Moreover, the smell of this body is not much different from that of the commander's original body. At most, it is more like a ripe peach, and the sweetness is stronger.
Wen Yue, who squeezed together with Su Xin every day, could not smell any mothball smell under the cover of the peach fragrance, and slept soundly every time.
So every time Su Xin came over, she would subconsciously kick her legs, twist her body, and other movements, but the other party was completely unaware. This was actually a good thing, as it saved her the trouble of thinking about how to explain it.
Su Xin curled up in the quilt and fell asleep hugging the little girl.
Under the influence of her biological clock, Su Xin still got up very early the next day.
She went out to wash up as usual, returned to the small kitchen to boil water and cook porridge, then went to the yard to sit in the wind, waiting to comb the children's hair.
The sparrows on the big tree stood in a row on the branches, tilting their heads and chirping.
Su Xin knew that they were begging for food.
During the early days of cultivating the land, little Santiago would always catch some insects and then stand under a tree with his head raised to try to talk to the sparrows.
Unfortunately, the languages of both parties were not on the same channel, so little Santiago was unable to complete the feeding plan he had been dreaming of.
Later, Su Xin taught her to tie up the grasshopper with a thin rope, throw it on the ground not far from herself, and then squat in place to act like a wooden man, not allowed to speak or move. Sure enough, the sparrows came bravely to snatch food.
As time went by, the distance between him and the insect gradually shortened. In the end, as long as little Santiago didn't jump up suddenly, he could even watch the bird foraging for food at his feet from a close distance.
But these sparrows are very cunning. They only recognize little Santiago. If anyone else calls them, they will simply ignore them.
Su Xin was quite supportive of this. It was a good thing for children to be close to nature, as long as they didn't feed the animals with rice and flour from home.
As for herself, although sparrows also have hair, they are not as cute as cats and dogs. Moreover, she is a little bit of a germaphobe and doesn't like these guys who urinate and defecate anywhere.
Since getting a pet, little Santiago wakes up early every day. Today was no exception. He jumped out and said, "Good morning, sister~"
"Good morning, Santiago. Let's wash up and tie our hair first, then go feed the birds, okay?"
"Good~"
Little Helena followed closely behind, not competing with the other party for the toilet. After glancing at the chirping sparrows, she turned her head and moved towards Su Xin.
"Good morning, sister."
"Good morning, Nana. Are you doing the same thing as me today?"
"Yeah!" Little Helena stood with her back to Su Xin, clasping her hands in front of her. "Will my hair... get dirty?"
"No, it's very clean, smooth and shiny, but..."
"?! No...but what...?"
Su Xin straightened her back and pinched her arms that had been hanging in the air for a long time. "Well... nothing, my hair seems to be a little longer than before."
"Well... I was so scared..." Little Helena breathed a sigh of relief and obediently let Su Xin help her braid her hair. Then she changed seats with little Santiago who rushed out and went to the bathroom to wash up.
Little Santiago kept looking up at the tree with his round eyes, as if he couldn't wait to feed the sparrows. Unfortunately, Su Xin was thinking about something, and her movements were much slower than before.
"Sister, are you okay?"
Su Xin came back to her senses, tied her braids tightly, and then responded. Looking at little Santiago who went to the kitchen to find the bugs, she raised her arm.
"It's not sour this time... So she really grew taller...?"
Wen Yue always got up the latest, and Anchorage was always the last. After helping the remaining two people fix their hair, Su Xin got up and twisted her waist.
"Well, the porridge should be ready. Let's have breakfast."
With the space on Little Helena's ship, food storage is not a problem, but the last time I went to the town, I mostly bought rice as the staple food, very few vegetables, and no fruits at all.
The seeds had been buried in the soil and there was still a long time before they matured, but the few vegetables were almost all eaten up within a week.
Therefore, from today on, Su Xin's only three meals will be white rice with salt.
Although she could survive by eating rice alone, the nutritional value was too limited. In addition to changing the taste for the children, she also had to worry about maintaining the normal functioning of her weak body.
So after finishing a small bowl of porridge, Su Xin discussed with the children sitting around the dining table, "I may have to go to town today. There is not much food left."
The children who were unaware of the situation had no intention of trying to dissuade them. Their oil was all given by Su Xin, so it was up to Su Xin to decide what to exchange it for.
Anchorage looked over with some concern, half understanding. She still remembered that after she and her sister escaped from the bad guys, her sister was in an abnormal state for a long time.
But Su Xin, who had been persuaded by Yixian and Tiancheng and made up her mind, was obviously not as easily influenced as before. "Anbao should accompany me, and you wait at home, okay?"
Little Santiago is heartless and just wants to go to the fields with Wenyue to catch insects. Little Helena has to take on the responsibility of looking after the child and watering the seeds at the same time.
So after dinner, the family lined up and ran out of the courtyard gate, and finally parted ways at the ridge of the field.
The three little ones jumped off the road and went to work in the fields, while the two big ones piled on top of each other and quickly went away along the road.
However, after running a few miles, Su Xin found that something was not right with herself today, and she always felt a little weak in her hands.
She thought about it for a long time and guessed that it was probably because she ate too much in the morning and felt a little nauseous and carsick when the road was bumpy, so she didn't take it too seriously.
As a result, when the sun was high in the sky and they were almost reaching the town, her symptoms were still there and were even getting worse.
Su Xin's face turned pale. She had to stop the speeding "Anbao" car, and squatted on the side of the road for about ten minutes, holding her stomach.
"Sister...sister...? It hurts...?
"... a little."
Su Xin, who was tugging at her clothes, felt a long-lost pain, familiar yet unfamiliar. It was the pain that her small body had not experienced for a long time.
"..I almost forgot, this body is also...a girl..."
"Sister...sister...go back...rest..."
"...Forget it. We'll be in town in about ten minutes. There's no point in going back now." Su Xin took a deep breath and climbed onto Anchorage's back despite the severe pain.
"Let's go, just go a little slower, dear."
"it is good…"
"Sir."
The girl with colorful hair sitting in front of the TV watching anime responded, "Hmm?"
"The woman you called everyone's attention to last time seems to have appeared."
"Oh?!" The Lord, who was no more than meters tall, jumped up from the sofa, "Where is it? Are you sure you recognized it correctly? Take me to see it."
"Yes, please come this way."
Jiang Jue, who had a cute face but was wearing leather clothes, walked out boldly, full of anticipation for the next encounter.
"Beautiful and powerful big sister, I'm here to see you!"
Chapter 668 I'm in love with you
"What do you want to be? Oh, here you are. Come and sit down!"
The pawnshop owner changed his attitude when he saw who was coming. He moved a chair and approached with great courtesy. "Why are you here this time...?"
Su Xin felt strange. She held Anchorage's hand and showed no intention of sitting down. She glanced at the goateed man's expression and said, "...same as last time."
The pawnshop owner's eyes rolled around and he became even more enthusiastic. After all, from the last transaction of 5,000 yuan, he made five or six times the profit by reselling it. The profit was already extremely high.
Besides money, there was another reason that forced him to treat Su Xin as a guest of honor.
"How much do you want to sell today?"
The flattery was too strong, which made Su Xin feel very uncomfortable, but the money for buying things could only come from here, there was no other way, so she could only frown and reply, "...still five thousand."
The pawnshop owner was delighted and wanted to make the decision immediately, but suddenly he thought of a certain gentleman. If the deal really went through, he would be held accountable.
After all, his own life was more precious, so the boss gritted his teeth and forced himself to let go of the fat meat that was about to be in his hands and changed his words.
"Ah... well... I asked about this before, and now the price of fuel has increased a lot, so for 5 units of fuel... I... I'll offer !"
Su Xin was stunned for a moment, then turned around and tried to leave, but was stopped by the shouting pawnshop owner and a dozen people who had gathered outside the door at some point in time.
"...I just want to go back and get it. What are you going to do?"
"Ahahaha... You must be smarter than me. Why don't you wait a little longer? I promise that your time will not be wasted. Who knows, you might even get some money for free?"
There were still a lot of people on the street when we got here, but now they were all gathered at the end of the roads on both sides, stretching their heads and looking around, leaving the area around the pawnshop empty.
Su Xin didn't know what happened. She wasn't feeling well today, but with the help of her ship equipment, it was not impossible for her to deal with a dozen people.
After confirming that she and Anchorage were surrounded, she frowned and asked again, "Will you get out of the way?"
The pawnshop owner thought of the miserable state of Ah Biao and the other two, and hurriedly hid behind the counter. While curling up into a ball for fear of being affected, he also advised: "It's a good thing, it's really a good thing, you just wait, why bother?"
Su Xin breathed a sigh of relief, "...An Bao."
"...elder sister?"
"Be obedient and wait for me at the gate. If anyone tries to stop you, just run into them. No matter what happens, it's not your fault."
Anchorage was stared at by a group of ferocious people. He uttered a few syllables timidly, then closed his eyes and stood in front of Su Xin, "I... I can... protect my sister...!"
Wing-like armor appeared in the air, and several scaled-down naval guns adjusted their directions, heading straight for the human encirclement ahead.
Seeing this, the dozen or so men pulled out their pistols and pointed them at Su Xin behind Anchorage, showing no sign of backing down.
Su Xin was not sure whether her ship's position could protect her from bullets. She only had one life, and if she was hit by a gun, there would be no follow-up.
Just as the two sides were confronting each other and the tension was growing, a delicate rebuke suddenly came from not far away.
"Who gave you permission to point guns at people? Stop it now!"
Su Xin frowned as she watched the dozen or so men obediently put away their guns, then silently stepped back to make room outside the pawnshop to welcome someone's arrival.
"Okay Anbao, put away the ship equipment. It seems that the person we are waiting for has arrived."
Anchorage opened his eyes and looked around, then put away his ship equipment as instructed, but still stood in front of Su Xin with no intention of moving.
This made Jiang Jue, who had paused the anime and rushed here, a little unhappy. She put her hands on her hips and looked up at Anchorage, "What are you doing! You are blocking me from looking at my beautiful sister, why don't you get out of the way?"
Anchorage's eyes widened, and he retorted aggrievedly, "Sister...I...my..."
"You are your ship girl, I am a human, I am not competing with you for the commander, I just want to see her, okay?"
Anchorage, who was not very mature, was confused and could not think of any rebuttal. Su Xin sighed and pulled the confused research ship behind her.
"...Hello, is it you who wanted to see me?"
Jiang Jue didn't say anything when he saw the person. He just looked up at the older sister who was much taller than him with shining eyes, and he was satisfied no matter how he looked at her.
"Pretty, has personality, has a nice figure, has a nice voice, can take care of children, is not indecisive, has an extremely high combat power, and also has a sickly attribute... Hey, bring me a stool!"
The subordinates who were serving on the side were not surprised at all. They quickly placed the small wooden stool that had been prepared in front of Jiang Jue and then stepped back consciously.
Jiang Jue stepped onto the small wooden stool as a matter of course, his eyes level with Su Xin's, "Well... no matter from which angle you look at it, you are very beautiful."
Su Xin was stopped for no apparent reason, and coupled with the influence of her menstrual period, she was originally in a very bad mood. But to be honest, it was quite funny to see a little girl with colorful hair standing on a bench and doing something childish.
"Hey, what's your name?" The little girl asked confidently, with her hands on her hips and looking straight ahead.
Su Xin didn't answer. She asked with a pale face, trying to suppress her discomfort: "...The Lord's daughter?"
"You don't know me?" Jiang Jue was stunned, then laughed with his little tiger teeth showing, "Hahaha, you're wrong, pretty sister, I am the Lord!"
Although it was a little unexpected, Su Xin did not show too much surprise, nor did she let down her guard just because the other party was a little girl.
"...You stopped me because of those three people?"
"Ah? Who?" Jiang Jue really couldn't remember until her subordinate whispered in her ear, then she suddenly realized, "A Biao? What a waste, I kicked him out of the gang a long time ago, he deserved to die."
"And speaking of this, I actually like you even more. Looking at your wound, you are really good at fighting. Can you show off your skills? I have only seen the setting of weak and powerful characters in anime!"
Su Xin was not a juggler, so of course she shook her head to refuse. Since the other party was not going to stand up for the three people, she should ask clearly as soon as possible to avoid being late for home.
"Well, now that you've met, what do you want to talk to me about?"
"Ah, very direct, I like direct people." Jiang Jue was in a very good mood, smoothing his colorful hair, "What do you think of me?"
After all, they were on someone else's territory, so Su Xin didn't mention "middle school girl" out loud. She only picked out some compliments and said, "...she looks cute."
"So you like me? It's time for lunch, come on, I'll treat you to a meal. Do you like steak? Or seafood? I have a chef at home, just order whatever you want!"
Su Xin was stunned for a moment, then discovered something. After a long silence, she asked hesitantly, "You... like me?"
