Chapter 437 Peony Parrot
The fifth and sixth graders had just finished school and happened to see a vague team on the road in the distance at the gate of the mansion. After getting confirmation from Lan Yi at the gate, they ran into the mansion in great joy and delight and shouted.
"Husband! Husband! The master of the family is back!"
In the inner courtyard, the four husbands were sitting together chatting, and they happened to talk about Lin Jiaojiao, who should start her journey back home in the next few days.
Hearing Xiaowu and Xiaoliu's cries, the four of them looked at each other in surprise. Fu Qi even picked up Lin Lexing directly from the stroller and walked out.
"Le Xing, your mother is back. Daddy will take you to see her."
Lin Yiyan and Jiang Huai each picked up a child, and Lin Yizhi stood up with the help of Tian Yu's father. He was now five months pregnant, and because he was pregnant with twins, his abdomen was already bulging.
Everyone came to the gate and the team also arrived in front of the door.
Before the carriage stopped, Lin Jiaojiao couldn't wait to lift the curtain and stick her head out. Seeing her husband standing in a row at the door with his children in his arms, she waved and shouted excitedly.
"I am back!"
After the carriage stopped, she jumped off and came to them and kissed the three little ones one by one. Then, ignoring the gazes of outsiders, she bent down and kissed Lin Yizhi's bulging belly twice.
Lin Yizhi's face turned red instantly and she held her belly, feeling extremely shy.
"My wife..."
Lin Jiaojiao stood up with a smile, "Hey, every treasure can't be missing."
Then he looked at the three little ones and asked in a hoarse voice: "Xia Youdong Yilexing, do you miss your mother?"
Fu Qi was the most active and watched Le Xing answer for her.
"Yes, Le Xing must be missing mommy, right? Le Xing can sit up now, so he can perform for mommy when the time comes."
Lin Xiayou in Lin Yiyan's arms had already stretched out her hands to be hugged by Lin Jiaojiao.
Lin Jiaojiao looked at Lin Xiayou in surprise. She didn't expect that the child still recognized her after she had been away for about two months. She quickly hugged Lin Xiayou and kissed her chubby face a few times.
Jiang Jinjie was the first to dismount and stood where she was, looking at everything in front of her calmly. Especially when she saw the husbands in front of Lin Jiaojiao, a look of amazement flashed across her eyes.
It was only after Lan Jiu reminded Lin Jiaojiao that she remembered that there were spies sent by the Queen and others. There were a total of six people, and they were spies from six different forces.
Is her life all that people want to explore and understand?
She sighed in her heart and walked towards the Cavalry Guards while holding Lin Xiayou.
"Captain Jiang, you have worked hard on the journey. You can rest here for the next three days. We will set off in three days."
"You are too polite, sir. This is what a subordinate should do."
Then Lan Yi led the six people towards the courtyard.
It was already time for the school to be over, and there were many students watching around.
When Lin Fei and Zhang Lianyu got the news, they ran over immediately.
"Sister, Sister Jiaojiao, you're back!"
Lin Chun was moving things out of the carriage. When he saw Lin Fei running over, he immediately waved at him.
Lin Fei saw the puppy in the cage at a glance and said in surprise: "Wow, what kind of dog is this? It looks so cute."
His exclamation immediately attracted everyone's attention, and Lin Jiaojiao also reacted.
"Ajiu, bring Liu Liang here."
Lan Jiu carried Liu Liang, who was still sleeping soundly, out of the carriage. Lin Yiyan and the others looked over curiously, and Lin Yizhi and Fu Qi's eyes lit up.
"So cute, the fur is curly too."
"My dear wife, this is so cute."
"Woof woof! Woof woof!"
Xiaobai stood behind Lin Yizhi and wagged its tail in protest. It felt like it was going to fall out of favor.
"Yeah! I have a dog too!"
Lin Jiaojiao heard Lin Fei's exclamation and looked over, only to see Lin Fei holding the little Teddy affectionately, while Zhang Lianyu next to him was very envious.
She was just about to return Lin Xiayou to Lin Yiyan, but the little guy grabbed her hair and refused to let go. She had no choice but to continue holding the little guy and walked to Zhang Lianyu.
"Xiaoyu, do you want to have a puppy too?"
Zhang Lianyu nodded immediately, "Brother and sister, this little puppy is so beautiful."
"If you raise it, you have to be responsible for it."
"Yes, I will. I'll raise Xiao Xiaobai until he's plump and white."
"Brother and sister believe you, go check out the cage in the back."
Zhang Lianyu ran to the back with a happy look on his face, and sure enough, he saw a puppy in the cage that looked exactly like the one in Lin Fei's arms. He expressed his gratitude to Lin Jiaojiao.
"Thank you, brother and sister!"
All the things were moved into the inner courtyard. The birdcage containing the starling was hung on the branches, and the four covered birdcages were placed on the stone table.
Lin Jiaojiao sat on a chair with Lin Dongyi and Lin Lexing sitting on her laps respectively. She looked at the husbands gathered around the stone table, cleared her throat and spoke.
"All four are different colors. You can open a blind box and keep the one you choose."
The four of them discussed and gave way to each other, and finally let Jiang Huai be the first candidate.
Jiang Huai took the bird cage closest to him and removed the cotton cover. Suddenly, a blue-green bird in the cage appeared in everyone's sight.
The bird, which was still sleeping with its eyes closed, suddenly sensed that it was daybreak, and it immediately became lively and chirped. The three cages next to it also started chirping, and the yard was suddenly filled with noise.
"So beautiful, much better than the one my sister brought back before."
"So beautiful, so beautiful, so beautiful."
The crowd, who were originally attracted by the lovebirds in the cage, were immediately attracted by the starling hanging on the branch nearby.
"My wife, it speaks! How magical."
"It's amazing, amazing, amazing."
"Wow, it learned to talk like me. Ten taels, say another one."
"Again, again, again, again."
"..."
"It's not one more time, it's one more time."
Lin Jiaojiao was embarrassed and just hoped that it wouldn't say anything else. Lan Jiu beside her also had red ears, so she quickly diverted his attention.
"By the way, why don't you see Dad?"
She had thought that Father Lin had gone out for a stroll, but now that he hadn't come back she had no choice but to ask.
Lin Yiyan showed a happy expression, "Dad and my second uncle went to see Xiaoran. Xiaoran is two months pregnant."
She was pleasantly surprised and said, "This is a good thing. Let someone send more supplements over."
"Dad has already taken it. Come and choose yours, little Qi."
"Here comes big brother."
Fu Qi and Lin Yizhi returned to the table, still unsatisfied. Fu Qi also chose the bird cage closest to her, took off the cotton cover, and inside was a parrot with yellow feathers and a hint of red on its forehead.
"So beautiful, thank you Sister Jiaojiao."
Seeing this, Lin Yizhi also took off the cotton cover, revealing a parrot with green feathers and a light red face, while Lin Yiyan's was a blue parrot.
The two babies in Lin Jiaojiao's arms looked at their father holding a cage and playing with the bird inside. They immediately became interested and stretched out their hands, screaming and wanting it.
Lin Xiayou was even more excited after changing the new diaper. She was so anxious that she started crying because she couldn't catch the bird in the cage.
This cry affected the other two as well. Added to that the cheerful chirping of the parrot in the cage and the barking of two dogs, one big and one small, who had come to join in the fun, the whole yard was in an uproar.
Compared to the hustle and bustle of the Lin Mansion, the backyard is much quieter.
Lin Chun was carrying a large bag on her back and two boxes of luggage in her hands, all of which were things she had bought along the way. She was walking beside Lin Fei and talking about what had happened recently.
She learned that her mother had rarely been at home recently, and her father was busy on the farm working later and later. Tongfu always came to help take care of the two children at home before her father came home.
Her heart felt warm, and the thing in her arms became even hotter.
When Tongfu learned that they had returned, he did not rush to the door to greet them. Instead, he went to Lin Dadan's house and called Wu Yingchun to quickly clean Lin Chun's room and change the bed sheets and quilt covers.
After doing all this, he was ready to leave. Unexpectedly, as he reached the door, he ran into Lin Chun who had returned. His face turned slightly red.
"Sister Lin Chun, you're back."
Lin Chun nodded, and Lin Fei next to him had already run up to him with the puppy in his arms and said excitedly.
"Brother Tongfu, look, this is the puppy my sister gave me. She brought it back from Kyoto."
He leaned over and looked at the puppy in Lin Fei's arms in surprise, then raised his hand and gently stroked its head.
"Is this the dog in Kyoto? Its fur is all curly, so cute."
"Yeah, sister also said that this dog won't grow up. Xiaoying, look at my dog."
Tongfu watched Lin Fei run into the yard holding the puppy, and he also heard the faint cry of a child coming from the Lin Mansion in front. He glanced at Lin Chun who was at the door.
"Sister Lin Chun, please go inside and rest first. I'll go back first."
After saying that, he went down the stairs to the back door of the Lin Mansion opposite and pushed open the door.
"Tongfu, etc."
The foot he had just stepped into the threshold of the door was silently retracted. When he turned around, he saw Lin Chun putting down the suitcase and walking quickly towards him.
"Tongfu, thank you for your hard work these days. On my first night in Kyoto, I went to the night market with Jiaojie and the others. I felt that this hairpin suits you very well at first sight."
As she spoke, she took out a silver hairpin wrapped in an embroidered handkerchief from her bosom and handed it over.
Tongfu blushed and lowered his head, not daring to look her in the eyes.
Seeing that he didn't answer, Lin Chun asked in confusion, "Don't you like it? Or do you like curly-haired dogs too? Sorry, I may not be able to buy them. The last one is at Xiaoyu's."
Tongfu's ears felt hot. He raised his head and reached out to take the silver hairpin from his palm, but he still didn't dare to look into her eyes, his gaze was wandering.
"Thank you, Sister Lin Chun. I like it very much."
After saying that, he turned and ran into the yard, but before he had taken a few steps he immediately turned around and ran back to close the back door.
Lin Chun looked at the closed door in front of him, raised his hand and scratched the back of his head, still not sure whether Tongfu liked it or not.
Forget it, I don't want to.
Anyway, Sister Jiao said that she would give her one when a baby parrot hatches, so she can give it to Tongfu then.
Sister Jiao always gives this to her husband, so I think you can’t go wrong with this.
