宅男的天堂

Little Jing Kong seriously pondered for a moment, cocking his head and asking, “Lady, were you also abducted by him?”

Yao Family looked puzzled.

Lord Gu’s face was red with embarrassment: “…”

Last night, Yao Family indeed had Lord Gu talking a lot about Gu Jiao, but how could Lord Gu dare to tell her everything? At least he did not say that he had someone kidnap Gu Jiao and a child with her.

He later inquired that the child was adopted from the temple by Gu Jiao.

She is obviously struggling to make ends meet, yet she adopts another burden. Who knows what this girl is thinking!

Although Yao Family was confused by what Little Jing Kong said, she faintly remembered that he was the little monk from the temple. She squatted down to be at eye level with him, and softly asked, “I remember you, you’re the little monk from the temple. What’s your name?”

Little Jing Kong blinked his round, black eyes and answered endearingly, “My name is Jing Kong! I’m not a little monk anymore, I came down from the mountain!”

She rubbed his little head which was sprouting some hair, smiling gently, “I’m here to see Jiaojiao, is she home?”

Little Jing Kong looked surprised, “Huh, you know Jiaojiao too?”

Yao Family nodded, “Yes, I know her.”

Little Jing Kong lowered his head in sadness, “You might not be able to see her today, she’s sick and can’t see guests.”

Yao Family immediately became worried, “How did she get sick?”

“The old lady said she was too tired,” Little Jing Kong thought for a moment and said guiltily, “It must be tiring looking after me. ”

After all, I eat so much.

Lord Gu felt a bit guilty. Did he happen to injure that girl with a flog yesterday?

He dared not tell Yao Family about it…

Yao Family looked at Little Jing Kong pleadingly. She sounded hurried, but her voice was very soft, “Can I go in and see her? I promise I won’t disturb her.”

“I’m not certain if Jiaojiao wishes to see you, wait here while I go ask her.” Little Jing Kong closed the door and ran back to Gu Jiao’s bedside. Speaking in an especially soft voice, he asked, “Jiaojiao, the lady from the temple came to see you, do you want to see her?”

Gu Jiao was fast asleep!

After a while, Little Jing Kong opened the door, announcing to Yao Family, “Okay, Jiaojiao didn’t object. You can go in!”

Yao Family walked inside, filled with excitement.

Lord Gu wanted to go in too.

Little Jing Kong stretched out a small hand to stop him: “You can’t go in.”

Lord Gu frowned, “Why?”

Little Jing Kong raised his chin in defiance, “Jiaojiao didn’t give permission for you to enter!”

Lord Gu was bewildered.

Is it a matter of her granting permission? It’s just that you, this black-hearted little monk, didn’t ask her, right?

Lord Gu stated solemnly; “If you dare, go ask her once! I do not believe she would oppose!”

How can someone oppose if they aren’t awake?

Little Jing Kong thought for a moment: “Okay.”

Little Jing Kong ran back into the room: “Jiaojiao, the big bad guy wants to see you. Do you want to see him?”

What does he mean by, ‘big bad guy’?

It’s not enough that the girl is annoying, even the little monk she raised is too?

Lord Gu’s face turned utterly dark!

Little Jing Kong took Gu Jiao’s hand and shook it. “I get it, you disagree!”

He walked out triumphantly, declaring to Lord Gu righteously, “Jiaojiao denied you!”

Lord Gu: “…”

Little Jing Kong moved a small stool and sat directly at the door, staring vigilantly at Lord Gu.

Lord Gu: “What are you doing?”

Little Jing Kong: “Watching you.”

Lord Gu: “Hmph, I don’t intend to go in!”

Little Jing Kong: “Who knows?”

Lord Gu: “If you don’t believe me, then bolt the door!”

Little Jing Kong stated, “What if you climb over the wall? I need to keep an eye on you, to prevent you from doing anything bad!”

Lord Gu: Is my reputation so low that I have to be watched over by a little monk?

One big and one small, they ended up in a standoff at the door.

For the time being, Yao Family had no concern for her husband. Her heart was filled with concern for Gu Jiao.

After she entered the house, she went directly to Gu Jiao’s bedside and sat down.

Gu Jiao’s face color was much better than last night but still had a slightly sickly pallor.

The saying goes ‘when the child is ill, the mother suffers’. Seeing her child so sick, Yao Family’s felt a poignant pain.

Looking around the house, her eyes welled up with tears.

Yao Family held her hand again. The calluses and wounds on her hand were so rough that they made Yao Family’s palm hurt.

She couldn’t hold it anymore, Yao Family silently started sobbing…

The old lady had gone for a nap and intended to check on Gu Jiao’s condition after she woke up. However, when she entered the hall, she saw Little Jing Kong sitting in front of the door like a miniature statue.
