Chapter 41

Murong Hai and others looked at Lin Zaozao, who went from an expression of surprise and joy to one of crying with a long face in no time. He sized her up, unsure what had gone wrong with her to make her face droop like that.

Just as Lin Zaozao was silently screaming in her mind, both of her hands were grabbed by the two children.

Lin Zaozao looked at the two children gesturing vigorously in her palms but couldn't make heads or tails of it even after a long look.

"What are you two drawing? Circles and loops... Oh I see! Are you two drawing a little turtle in my palm?"

"No, they aren't drawing a turtle. They're drawing you. They want to ask why you suddenly became unhappy," Murong Hai said.

Murong Hai's words made Lin Zaozao's body stiffen involuntarily. She lowered her head to meet Lin Wuwu and Lin Wanwan's eyes and asked uncertainly.

"You two were really drawing me instead of a turtle?"

Lin Wuwu and Lin Wanwan nodded seriously.

As the two children nodded, Ye Yi and Murong Hai couldn't help but chuckle. Seeing their shaking shoulders, Lin Zaozao's face was turning dark.

"What's so funny that you're laughing like that? You'll get mad cow disease at this rate."

"Hahaha..."

"What's so damn funny that your sense of humor is so low? Why don't you go sell laughs at a male brothel!"

Lin Zaozao twisted her lips in frustration.

These damn kids, why did they have to draw circles instead of something else! Now she had gotten herself into this.

"Lin Zaozao, you said earlier that you had to pay a price to make medicine for these children. What was the price? It wasn't growing extra flesh around your belly, was it?"

Murong Hai glanced at the extra layer of flesh around Lin Zaozao's belly and asked doubtfully.

"Alas, Murong Hai! The flesh is only one of the prices. Most importantly, whenever I make medicine for others, I have to suck in the Yang energy of men. Without the Yang energy of men, I'll grow fatter. Murong Hai, as my husband, why don't... we consummate our marriage tonight? Let me suck some of your Yang energy and lose some weight too?"

"Get lost."

Murong Hai ruthlessly pushed Lin Zaozao's face away as she leaned in towards him.

"Cheapskate! Likes men instead."

Lin Zaozao twisted her lips and sat down heavily on Ji Fantian's bed. But she was afraid her weight would break his new bed, so she shifted and sat on the new chair instead.

Luckily, the new chair she bought was sturdy enough to support her fleshy body.

Just as Lin Zaozao sat down steadily, her hands were pulled by someone. She turned back to see Lin Wuwu and Lin Wanwan gesturing at her palms again.

After rolling her eyes at Ji Fantian, Lin Zaozao turned her head towards Ye Yi: "Ye Yi, did you make the old bed at Lonely Mountain?"

Ye Yi nodded seriously.

"Since it's made, let's carry them to your room, one each!"

Speaking, Lin Zaozao easily picked up Lin Wuwu in a princess carry. Because they had just applied medicine, she was extra careful carrying Lin Wuwu, afraid of hurting him.

After all, she saw the extent of Lin Wuwu and Lin Wanwan's injuries when bathing them earlier.

As she carefully walked while holding Lin Wuwu, Lin Zaozao didn't notice the dazzling golden light that flashed in the blue-gold eyes of the boy in her arms.

Lin Zaozao didn't see it, but Ye Yi following behind saw it clear as day.

Ye Yi lowered his head to look at Lin Wanwan in his arms, whose eyes shone with the same light.

In that moment, a feeling of grief welled up in his heart.

What kind of fate is this!

But when Lin Zaozao had just stepped into Ye Yi's room, she was startled by what was inside.

Damn! Why were there so many bones on Ye Yi's walls? But judging by the length and size of the bones, they shouldn't be human bones!

After glancing at Ye Yi's room, Lin Zaozao walked straight to his bed and put Lin Wuwu down. When she pushed on the bed board, she could clearly feel it was a little loose.

She should have been more fair today and bought a few more beds. With her shabby little courtyard, how good could Ye Yi and the others' lives be!

Oh well, at least the mattress and quilt she bought today for Ye Yi were new. It would have to do for now! In a few days, she would go into town again and buy beds for Ye Yi, Murong Hai, and Ruo Qiu too!

After all, it would also be convenient for her to use them!

Lin Zaozao narrowed her eyes and pursed her lips, her mind full of rolling restricted thoughts.

What a pity her figure had grown into a ball. Now she could only imagine those indecent thoughts.

When Ye Yi put Lin Wanwan on the bed and turned around, what he saw was Lin Zaozao staring at his bed with a vulgar expression.

This woman Lin Zaozao, what was she always thinking about all day?

Was she really that lustful?

Yet whenever she looked at them with that vulgar expression, her eyes were unprecedentedly clear.

This woman was truly too contradictory.

Or should he try testing if this Lin Zaozao was truly vulgar or just pretending?
