Chapter 46: Hello, I am the husband bought by your older sister

Upon hearing this, Shi Lin looked at Qiao Sheng and said: "I have Dark Guards; I sent them elsewhere to do things, they'll be here soon, and then I'll have them secretly protect Xiao Shitou."

"Good!"

Qiao Sheng agreed.

Shi Lin knew Qiao Sheng definitely used connections to obtain the travel permit.

After buying the needed disguise items from the black market, he immediately disguised himself as an ordinary-looking man, then had her redo the travel permit, since the permit includes a description of one's appearance.

Xiao Shitou stared in shock: "You're really an uncle?"

Shi Lin rubbed Xiao Shitou's head and said: "Yes, it's me, but from now on you can't call me uncle; you have to call me dad."

"Dad!"

Xiao Shitou happily shouted.

Qiao Sheng couldn't bear to watch.

Perhaps, maybe, possibly, this child is like this because he so desperately wanted a father?

Everything settled.

They returned together to the Mountain God Temple.

Before they entered, Qiao Xuehua came over from the side: "Older sister, he, who is he?"

Qiao Sheng: "……"

My little sister really came at just the right time.

After thinking it over carefully.

Shi Lin will be staying here for a while; they'll eventually see him, so she didn't dwell on it so much.

Qiao Sheng was about to introduce him to Qiao Xuehua.

Shi Lin spoke before her: "Hello, I am the husband bought by your older sister."

"A bought husband?"

Qiao Xuehua widened her eyes.

Qiao Sheng said beside him: "Exactly, he is the husband I bought; his name is Ligouzi, and he's two years older than me!"

Shi Lin grits his teeth every time he hears that name; if it weren't already registered at the yamen, she would have also spoken it out, and he would perhaps change his name to something else.

Qiao Xuehua handed the vegetables she brought to Xiao Shitou, pulled Qiao Sheng aside to talk: "Older sister, he looks somewhat fierce; is this person really okay?"

"Don't worry, he just looks fierce."

Qiao Sheng replied to her.

When Qiao Xuehua wasn't looking, she glared at Shi Lin.

Qiao Xuehua's mood was somewhat complicated.

If my older sister's appearance hadn't become like this, she wouldn't be unable to bear children.

Why has it come to this?

Qiao Sheng lightly patted Qiao Xuehua's shoulder and said: "Alright, don't worry about us; I plan to invite you guys to eat tomorrow and introduce him. Go back and tell mother and them."

At night, when it was deep and quiet.

Qiao Sheng took the opportunity while relieving herself to enter the space, harvested the vegetables planted there, then went to boil water to wash her hair and bathe.

After washing, she came out.

Qiao Sheng drank some Spirit Spring Water, picked up the mirror from the space and looked at herself; she saw the dense black spots on her face had faded a bit compared to the previous day.

She felt both happy and somewhat heartbroken.

Shi Lin's poison was resolved so quickly; the original host ate poisonous fruit and ended up with this face—how come after so long it still hasn't healed?

Really, comparing people makes people die of anger.

Could it be because the original host was poisoned longer than Shi Lin, accumulating more toxins in the body?

The next morning early, they sent Yanghuai Flower.

Qiao Sheng then went with Shi Lin and them to the market to buy vegetables; since she planned to use vegetables from the space, she sent Shi Lin and Xiao Shitou to go buy pork and fish.

They returned to the Mountain God Temple.

Qiao Sheng got busy; Xiao Shitou didn't idle, helping her just as before.

Shi Lin had never done these before; even picking vegetables, he wasn't as good as Xiao Shitou.

Qiao Sheng looked at him from the side and said: "Young Master Shi, you really are a person whose ten fingers don't touch spring water—you can't even pick vegetables."

The phrase "ten fingers don't touch spring water" is usually used to describe ladies from wealthy families.

As a result, she used it to describe him.

Shi Lin's face darkened: "I won't, but I can learn."
