The School Beauty Became My Live-in Maid to Pay Off Her Debts Chapter 327: 326: Lifetime Appointment

Chapter 327: Chapter 326: Lifeti Appointnt

In this village, there probably wasn’t any need for alarms, as from around three or four o’clock in the morning, the crowing of roosters would start to resonate, a cacophony swelling and fading in turns.

Many elderly folks would wake up at this ti, brewing porridge and steaming buns, heading out to water and fertilize the vegetable fields.

On the leaves of vegetables in the crisp morning, glistening dewdrops still clung, making them the most delicious when picked and stir-fried at this hour.

A bit later, around six or seven, daylight would break, and the village would fully awaken.

From each household, wisps of cooking smoke rose up, the elders would sit at their doorsteps on small stools, nodding and greeting neighbors passing by with heavy loads, chatting about household trifles.

Little yellow dogs would roll on the ground on their backs, occasionally wagging their tails and barking once or twice, at which point the children would share so of their snacks with them.

The village dogs weren’t picky eaters; easy to care for, they’d basically eat anything given to them.

Lin Shuang vaguely heard these barks and the children’s laughter, along with the hawker’s cry selling sesa candy through the streets and alleys.

And then…

He was woken up by being stepped on.

Blearily opening his eyes, what he saw wasn’t the ceiling of his old ho.

But…

Hmm, white, with girlish lace trims, and even printed with an ice cream cone.

Cute.

Tong Ge stood disdainfully by Lin Shuang’s bed, lifting the hem of her dress.

What a way to be woken up first thing in the morning!

Special awakening service, huh!

“Brother-in-law is looking at so weirdly.”

“I’m simply appreciating beauty! It is about being able to discover the beauty in life!”

“That’s just plain perversion, isn’t it.”

“It’s hard to say who’s more perverse—the Maid Chief providing this kind of special wake-up service so early in the morning or the brother-in-law enjoying it!”

Tong Ge’s words carried an implication, “Clearly it’s brother-in-law.”

Lin Shuang instantly got her insinuation and lifted his legs to cover up, defending, “This is also a very normal morning phenonon!”

Tong Ge gave him a gentle kick, “Need help with that?”

Her tone was as flat as that of an emotionless Assassin! The mont Lin Shuang nodded, she’d swiftly make her cut.

“Snap—” Just like that!

Lin Shuang couldn’t help but feel a phantom pain, “I’m getting up, I’m getting up, Little Dove, please lift your precious foot!”

“Before that, brother-in-law, you might want to remove your hand from my leg.”

“Okay!”

This Tong Ge was clearly a bit more lively and animated than before.

“Brother-in-law’s expression is getting weirder.”

Tong Ge pursed her lips slightly, “Being gazed at by such eyes for a long ti, one would certainly be infected with weird vibes.”

Lin Shuang gave up on resisting, “…then Little Dove, be prepared to be gazed at like this for a lifeti.”

“Brother-in-law has no intention of reforming and becoming a normal person at all.”

Tong Ge let out a light laugh, “…a lifeti?”

Lin Shuang prodded her smile, “Of course, it’s a permanent position.”

Tong Ge nodded, “To have been assigned such a good job before even attending college, I need to share this great news with Grandma.”

“Don’t say things like that!”

Lin Shuang sat up in a dying panic, only to be pushed back down by Tong Ge.

The girl’s instep was taut, and tied around her fair and delicate ankle was a red string.

She tapped Lin Shuang’s chest lightly with her toes, “Help untie this.”

Lin Shuang had actually noticed the red string long ago, since it was quite conspicuous against the stark white of the ankle.

“How long have you been wearing this string?”

“Since my last zodiac year. Grandma tied it on , said it was blessed in a temple for protection and safety.”

“I used to wear red underwear during my zodiac year too.”

“I don’t really want to know what color of underwear my brother-in-law is wearing.”

Lin Shuang laughed and slapped her leg, removing the red string that was ant for her.

Holding it in the palm of her hand, she carefully examined the string. It was exquisitely woven, with silk threads of different colors forming complex patterns.

“—You’re not allowed to sniff it.”

“…I wasn’t planning on sniffing it anyway.”

Tong Ge gave him a look that said “I know exactly what this pervert is up to.”

“Stretch out your foot.”

She sat on the edge of the bed, bending down to personally tie the string around Lin Shuang’s ankle.

“Next week is my brother-in-law’s birthday, consider this a gift.”

“Then thank you, Little Dove.”

Lin Shuang, with a big grin, spread his arms. “To show my gratitude, co give a hug.”

“Go wash up, grandma is about to get up.”

“Wake up!”

Lin Shuang, full of energy, leapt out of bed and went to the washroom.

Tong Ge sat on the bed, quietly watching his retreating figure.

She curled up her legs, resting her head on her knees.

“…For life, huh.”

She murmured softly, “Not bad at all, my silly brother-in-law.”

…

Lin Shuang was kept by grandma for lunch.

At that mont, the old lady was standing at the door holding a bloodstained knife, urging Lin Shuang, “The chicken is already slaughtered, don’t rush off, grandson-in-law.”

Lin Shuang… could only silently mourn the chicken for three seconds.

But grandma’s chicken soup was indeed delicious. Like Maid Chief at Lin Shuang’s ho, she added so dicinal herbs. It seems Ayao really did inherit so culinary skills from grandma.

Besides chicken soup, grandma also made a large pot of braised chicken, and the gizzards were stir-fried with pickled peppers and shredded ginger.

In short… the chicken was worth it, fully utilized and all the dishes on the table were delicious.

The various vegetables served were all freshly picked from grandma’s field, very fresh.

However, Ayao and Little Dove had already cultivated the villa’s garden, so he would be able to enjoy such fresh vegetables often too!

“Yaoyao said that you guys want to grow so vegetables in the city, I’ve packed so seeds for you, rember to take them with you when you leave, grandson-in-law.”

“Then thank you, grandma.”

“There’s no need for thanks between family, but I don’t know if that girl Yaoyao can keep these seeds alive. It’s been a long ti since she grew anything, hasn’t it?”

Lin Shuang chuckled, “Yaoyao is very capable, she fattened up quite a bit.”

“Boys should eat well and grow strong — Oh, this is good stuff; grandson-in-law should eat more.”

Grandma picked up a flat round object from the spicy chicken gizzards and placed it in Lin Shuang’s bowl.

Lin Shuang paused, “This is…”

Sitting beside him, Tong Ge calmly said, “Chicken kidneys, brother-in-law should eat more.”

…So it’s the idea of ‘like cures like’?

Under grandma’s kind gaze, Lin Shuang ate the nourishing food, sweating bullets.

Whether this little thing had any real nourishing effects or not… the spicy chicken gizzards were delicious!

After lunch, Lin Shuang finally started his journey back ho.

Tong Ge and grandma went into the mountains to pick mushrooms and didn’t see him off.

Before the car left the village, Lin Shuang sent her a ssage, “I will really miss Little Dove.”

Alright, looks like the playboy is thoroughly nurtured.

After taking a turn, the car passed by the hill they had climbed the night before.

From a distance, Lin Shuang saw a girl in a white dress standing on the top of the hill, waving at him.

“Well, I guess I’ll reluctantly miss the pervert brother-in-law too.”
