After the frail beauty went to the countryside, she went crazy with scientific research.

Chapter 182, Episode 0189: Boom

"I put six candies in your pocket this morning, but they were empty when I changed your clothes. So that your tummy won't hurt tonight, you can forget about the sweets."

Seeing that her uncle was truly at his wit's end, she looked at her aunt and saw that she had already picked up a book and was reading it.

It's obvious that the aunt sided with the uncle this time, and the little guy was extremely disappointed.

Fortunately, the little guy didn't throw a tantrum when his demands weren't met; he obediently ate the yellow peach in small bites.

Watching him eat with such a satisfied expression, Lin Yuexi and Leng Xingran couldn't help but smile as well.

However, you really can't expect a four or five-year-old child to be very sensible.

As the saying goes: When a child is quiet, he is probably up to no good.

After finishing his meal, the little guy put down his bowl, turned around, and immediately clung to Lin Yuexi, his whole body sticking to her like a tree bear.

"I want to sleep with my aunt tonight."

"No."

Before Lin Yuexi could object, Leng Xingran jumped out, "Little Hua Hua, you heartless thing! You've slept with your uncle for so long, but your heart is still with your aunt. Your uncle is so sad."

Lin Yuexi: "..."

Something about what she said sounded off.

Xiao Zhaohua buried her little head further into Lin Yuexi's neck and mumbled, "I want to sleep with my aunt."

Leng Xingran wasn't really unwilling; the little guy wasn't a good sleeper. He would often be on one side for the first half of the night, but by the second half, he would have completely turned over.

He was worried that the little one would disturb his sister's rest.

Lin Yuexi knew what he was worried about, so she waved her hand at him and gave him a reassuring look, "It's okay, let him sleep here tonight."

Seeing that her younger sister was the same, Leng Xingran decided not to play the villain.

Xiao Zhaohua's commotion reminded him of his home accommodation problem. "Xu Zhichuan and Zhang Ze came to see me specifically. They want to go back to the educated youth settlement to stay."

Although so many things had happened at the educated youth settlement in the past six months, and both of them had some history of accidents, they were really afraid.

But···
If he were the only one living at home, he would definitely oppose their decision, but with Xi Bao there, he has to be more cautious.

The man knew that living with the female educated youth would easily attract gossip. Even if they lived in separate rooms, as long as they were in the same house, they would inevitably be talked about.

Didn't you see that in the educated youth settlement, the male and female educated youth lived in separate courtyards?!
He was willing to let the two of them stay at the time because they were both in trouble. Xu Zhichuan was being pestered by Liu Bingyan, and Zhang Ze was being harassed by a girl from the village who visited the educated youth settlement every day. The two of them were seeking refuge.

The villagers knew that the two of them had come to avoid trouble, and also that Liu Huai, their elder brother, and Ren Yan were still at home, so they were not alone together. In addition, the warning from the brigade leader still had a lingering effect, so no one had gossiped about them.

But things are different now. Liu Bingyan has become more obedient, the woman who was clinging to Zhang Ze got married half a month ago, and Xu Zhichuan has become Ren Yan's boyfriend. Doesn't this make it easier for people to have ideas?

Although no one in the village has said anything yet, Xu Zhichuan and Zhang Ze are not fools. After living in the village for so many years, they know everyone's temperament. The reason why no one is gossiping yet is only because they still have some concerns, but that doesn't mean they don't have their own thoughts.

Since there are still empty rooms at the educated youth settlement, the two decided to move there while things weren't too busy yet, lest new educated youth arrive and take all the rooms, and they regret it then.

Lin Yuexi is a person from the future at heart, and sometimes she doesn't care about many things, such as the strict separation of men and women. If you don't remind her, she usually won't remember them.

So after hearing Leng Xingran's words, Lin Yuexi didn't think about what Leng Xingran was worried about, but rather that the two of them might not be comfortable living at home, so they decided to go back to the educated youth settlement to live on their own.

Her idea wasn't entirely without reason. Compared to other people in the village, even among urban working-class families, few could afford to eat as well.

Ren Yan at least had the pretext of being entrusted by Leng Zhi and Zhang Hongying to take care of Lin Yuexi, and the couple had promised Ren Yan that they would make sure she was well-fed.

Xu Zhichuan and Zhang Ze were dining together as a couple. They weren't the type to take advantage of others, so the better the food at home, the more they paid, which put them under more pressure.

Neither Lin Yuexi nor Leng Xingran knew that, most importantly, living here meant they would occasionally discover things they shouldn't have.

Neither Xu Zhichuan nor Zhang Ze were particularly daring; they preferred to remain completely unaware of the truth.

They only have a vague idea that Lin Yuexi's identity might not be simple, and they already often feel like they are being monitored. If they accidentally stumble upon something deeper, won't they be in big trouble?!

Lin Yuexi nodded to indicate that she understood, and then did not continue the topic.

Those two are Third Brother's friends. She allowed them to stay because of Third Brother's influence. She wouldn't interfere if they moved out.

She patted the little guy's bottom, who was still struggling, and said, "Go brush your teeth and wash your face with your uncle first. Your aunt will wait for you."

The little guy finally let go with relief and turned to rush into Leng Deran's arms, which were now outstretched.

Leng Xingran carried him out to wash up, and a little while later she brought Xiang Tuanzi back in, who had already changed into pajamas.

Time slips slowly through our fingers, and the hazy moonlight drapes the earth like a silver gauze skirt.

In this peaceful and serene moment, suddenly...

"Boom~~"

A deafening, muffled roar came from afar, and the earth trembled in response.

Lin Yuexi, lying on the kang (a heated brick bed), suddenly opened her eyes. Her eyes were only confused for a moment before they became clear.

The little one next to me was also affected, whimpering as if he was about to wake up.

Lin Yuexi gently patted his back while humming a soothing melody to comfort him.

At the same time, he released his mental energy, probing in the direction of the resounding sound.

Lin Yuexi's mental strength has now recovered to level two of her previous life, and can cover an area of ​​about fifty square kilometers.

She was certain that the sound was coming from the direction of the back mountain, but the place from which the sound came was far beyond what she could 'see', and she had no idea what caused it.

However, the fact that the ground could still tremble at such a great distance gave Lin Yuexi a very bad feeling.

Although working during the day is tiring, people usually sleep soundly at night. However, the people here are particularly sensitive to loud noises like cannon fire. Lin Yuexi has already "seen" that almost every household in the village has lights on in their rooms.

A moment later, the captain grabbed a flashlight and hurriedly ran towards the back mountain.

In less than ten minutes, many men from the village, carrying various tools, had formed a dense crowd at the foot of the mountain.

The noise outside woke up the people inside. Leng Xingran ran out to check the situation, and after a while she came back and called Xu Zhichuan and Zhang Ze. They also grabbed their weapons and followed her to the foot of the back mountain.

It was amazing; there seemed to be a rope pulling them together. After Secretary Chen shouted a few words, everyone quietly split into groups, some blocking the road, others hiding. The whole arrangement was very ingenious.

It's a layout where if someone runs down the mountain, they absolutely can't escape in any direction.
