Chapter 127: Chapter 127 His Wife is Adorable_1

”Xiao Lan, in such a public place, don’t cry and wail, it’ll make us a laughing stock.” The uncle kindly reminded her.

Only then did Shi Xiaolan sniffle and stop hugging An Jing to cry, instead lowering her head, making sure she wouldn’t cry again before raising her head to look at An Jing. She examined An Jing carefully and finally said with a choked voice, ”An Jing, you look well, not as thin as before, and you seem spirited.”

An Jing immediately pulled Xiao Changyi over to introduce him, ”This is my husband, Xiao Changyi; you should remember him. He was enlisted when we were ten years old and only came back three months ago. Thanks to him making sure I eat well every day, I was able to gain weight.” She paused and teased, ”His goal is to fatten me up, preferably to the size of a pig.”

Although Xiao Changyi’s expression didn’t change much, his cool eyes were filled with tenderness as he looked at An Jing. His wife was indeed adorable.

Seeing the affectionate manner between An Jing and Xiao Changyi, Shi Xiaolan felt quite emotional, ”I heard that you got married. I wanted to visit you, but I really couldn’t find the time. An Jing, don’t hold it against me; I truly am...” Her words trailed off as she choked up again.

An Jing took her hand, ”Xiao Lan, you don’t have to blame yourself. I’ve never held anything against you. You were always the kindest to me; I am too grateful to bear any grudge. Oh, is this your husband?”

Lin Anjing had never met An Fu before. When Shi Xiaolan got married, she should have at least been able to see him once, but Father Lin and Mother Lin didn’t allow Lin Anjing to attend Shi Xiaolan’s wedding, instead making Lin Anjing work at home. As a result, Lin Anjing never knew what her best friend’s husband looked like until her death.

Only then did Shi Xiaolan introduce An Fu, ”Yes, my husband. I’ve told you about him before. His name is An Fu.”

An Fu was also somewhat reserved, obviously a down-to-earth man. He didn’t know what to say and simply smiled politely at An Jing and Xiao Changyi.

”And this uncle is...?” An Jing asked, looking at the vegetable-selling uncle, unaware of his name.

Before Shi Xiaolan could answer, the vegetable-selling uncle introduced himself, ”My name is An Quangui, their third uncle. Young lady, if you don’t mind, just call me Uncle Quan Gui.”

An Jing immediately called out in a straightforward manner, ”Uncle Quan Gui.”

Shi Xiaolan stared at her as if she were looking at something new and fascinating.

”Why are you staring at me like that?” An Jing found it somewhat amusing.

”You’re very different from before, now you are... uh...” Shi Xiaolan, who hadn’t been to school, didn’t know how to describe her feelings at the moment. After a while, she managed to articulate a few words, ”Much better than before.”

An Jing understood what Shi Xiaolan meant. The old Lin Anjing was too lifeless. She sighed and then said, ”You must not have heard about me being sold, have you? That changed me. Or rather, I came to terms with it.”

”I heard about it...” Shi Xiaolan was extremely honest, but her tone was incredibly heavy and filled with a deep sense of helplessness, ”An Village is so close to Jiuping Village; how could I not have heard? It’s just... I was barely struggling to survive myself and couldn’t take care of you. Later, I heard it seemed you turned misfortune into a blessing; Brother Xiao dotes on you greatly, so I was relieved.”

An Jing tightened her grip on Shi Xiaolan’s hand, ”And my husband moving in with me and my changing my surname to An...”

”Heard about that, too...” Shi Xiaolan was still honest, her voice quite soft.
