Reborn Spicy Little Wife

Chapter 674 Xie Chang'an, you're dead (2)

"Young man, we'll do as you say. The necklace and earrings mean a lot to you, so I won't make things difficult for you. But if you ever need other styles in the future, you must patronize our jewelry store."

An elderly man with white hair stood behind the counter, making a strong statement.

“Okay!” Xie Chang’an took out the blueprints and placed them on the counter.

The old man picked up the blueprints and carefully put them away. "Young man, your wife must be a fairy to make you treat her with such devotion."

"Hmm...she really is a fairy!" Xie Chang'an nodded happily, his little wife had come down from heaven to save him.

"Master, how much is the deposit?"

"Give me a hundred yuan," the old man said casually, then excitedly went behind the counter to study the blueprints.

Xie Chang'an paid one hundred yuan and received a receipt.

The sales clerk looked around and lowered her voice to Xie Chang'an, saying, "The woman who just asked you for money bought a pair of rings that are exactly the same as yours."

Xie Chang'an's face immediately turned ashen.

When he walked out of the jewelry store, his face was still very grim.

At Xie Chang'an's house, two unfamiliar men were standing in the yard staring at each other.

One of them stared at the two flower beds in the yard with a worried look. "Strange, we've looked all around but haven't seen the yard with bamboo and jujube trees that the team leader mentioned. Only this one looks like it, but those two lush flower beds don't quite look like it!"

Luo Ning was frying dough sticks in the kitchen when he heard the commotion outside. He shouted, "Xie Changle, go open the door! Your brother's comrade-in-arms is here!"

"Hey!" Xie Changle came out of the study, walked to the door and opened it. Sure enough, he saw two men in military uniforms.

"Hello, this is Xie Chang'an's home. My sister invites you in."

"Oh my, it really is this place!" The man who had been muttering earlier was overjoyed and quickly introduced himself.

"Hello, young comrade. My name is Luo Yizhen, and this gentleman next to me is Ren Deyi!"

"Brother Luo, Brother Ren, this is Xie Changle. My brother hasn't come back yet. Please come in and have some water." Xie Changle warmly invited the two of them.

"So you're Xie Changle. I've often heard the captain mention you." Luo Yizhen and Ren Deyi exchanged a glance and walked side by side toward the main gate.

Xie Changle scratched his head. His brother had actually mentioned him to his comrades. He was suddenly a little too happy and felt a bit dizzy. He leaned against the door and went inside to prepare tea.

"Brother Luo, Brother Ren, please make yourselves at home. I'll go make some tea."

"Hey, Chang Le, don't be so polite. We'll just sit here and not drink tea." Luo Yizhen stretched out Er Kang's hand, forcefully stopping them.

“If you won’t drink, I will!” Ling Xianluo, who had caught up from behind, stepped through the gate.

"Xie Chang Le, get me some more good food!"

"Tch!" Xie Changle rolled her eyes as she walked into the kitchen. Ling Zhen was shameless, coming over again to freeload.

Luo Yizhen and Ren Deyi exchanged a smile and immediately went inside.

Xie Changle brewed the tea and took a few teacups out.

Luo Ning scooped out the last fried dough stick, removed the oil pan, picked up two plates, filled them with pastries, and took them out.

Xie Changle poured tea for Luo Yizhen and the other two, then immediately went to take Luo Ning's plate, saying, "Sister, give it to me!"

Ling looked at Luo Ning, then at Xie Chang Le, feeling as if a lot had happened during his absence.

Luo Yizhen and Ren Deyi were a little confused and hurriedly stood up. How could the captain's sister be so young? It seemed a bit illogical.

What should we call them?

Just as they were hesitating, Luo Ning walked to the sofa opposite them and sat down. "Xiao Luo, Xiao Ren, come and sit down. Don't be shy here."

Xie Changle put down the plate and immediately poured Luo Ning a cup of tea, placing it in front of her. "Sister, you've worked hard. Have some water."

"Good boy!" Luo Ning was very pleased. Xie Changle was finally starting to behave like a normal person. Her efforts in teaching him over this period of time had not been in vain.

Ling picked up a toothpick, forked a piece of biscuit, and stuffed it into her mouth, staring intently at Luo Ning. "What's going on? Why is Xie Changle calling you 'sister'?"

Luo Ning picked up his teacup and took a small sip.

It's truly our own soil, our own tea, and our own water; it just tastes so good.

"He calls me 'sister,' but you still have to call me 'dad.' What's so strange about that?"

Xie Changle, who was sitting next to Luo Ning, burst into laughter and almost rolled off the sofa.

Luo Yizhen and Ren Deyi both suppressed their laughter; Xie Changle was just too funny.

Ling Qi was furious. She glared at Luo Ning, then turned to glare at Luo Yizhen and Ren Deyi. "What are you laughing at? What's so funny!"

Luo and Ren couldn't hold back any longer and burst out laughing.

They'd gotten to know Ling well on this mission and weren't afraid of this legendary top-notch military doctor at all.

Ling was furious at their laughter, so she used some of Luo Ning's delicious food to suppress her anger.

Going on missions is no living life; enjoying the delicious food of Luoning is what life is all about.

"What's so funny?" An uninvited guest arrived.

Why did this woman show up? Xie Changle was completely flustered.

Ling grabbed a biscuit and crunched it loudly, as if she were biting someone's neck.

Ren Deyi and Luo Yizhen didn't expect to run into Ye here. Wasn't she at odds with her sister-in-law? Why did she come here?

As the host, Luo Ning remained calm and composed, sipping his tea while issuing a dismissive order: "You're not welcome here. Curl yourself up and leave gracefully!"

Ren Deyi and Luo Yizhen were completely bewildered. What did that mean? Why did it suddenly seem like they couldn't even understand what they were saying?

Xie Changle stood up and stood beside Luo Ning to guard against Ye causing trouble.

Ling scoffed, "With your skinny arms and legs, you're not even good enough for leafy greens."

Ye Yi pushed Xie Changle aside, smugly took out a red box from his bag, opened it, and took out a pair of rings inside.

"Luoning, this is the wedding ring that Chang'an gave me. You know, why did he have to give me this?"

I don't understand, so I came to ask you, do you know?

Luo Ning's gaze unconsciously fell on the pair of gold rings; their retro patterns clearly indicated they were made at a jewelry store.

She didn't quite believe Ye's words, but Xie Chang'an's comrades had already come to his door, and he still hadn't returned. It was highly likely that he had gone to the jewelry store.

Regardless of how Ye got the ring, it's inextricably linked to Xie Chang'an.

She just got back and I'm already causing her trouble.

Xie Chang'an, you're dead!

Xie Changle steadied herself by holding onto her bedroom door, then angrily grabbed a broom to shoo Ye away, yelling, "My sister told you to get out, don't you hear me? Huh!"

With a "ha," Ye put away the ring, having achieved her goal, and strode away.

Luo Ning rolled her eyes and finished her tea. "Xiao Luo, Xiao Ren, you two are staying for dinner tonight!"

After saying that, Luo Ning went to the kitchen to continue frying chicken.

Xie Changle followed her in like a shadow, saying, "Sis, don't listen to her stirring things up. That woman has bad intentions. Maybe she picked up the ring somewhere and is trying to frame my brother!"

Luo Ning looked at him with a forced smile, "Do you know how much a gram of gold costs now? 50 yuan, which is equivalent to a lot of people's monthly salary. Those two rings together must weigh about ten grams, at least 500 yuan. Can you pick up 500 yuan for me?"

Xie Changle: "..."

Ren Deyi and Luo Yizhen outside exchanged a glance, then looked at Ling, who was drinking tea, and said, "That was my sister-in-law!"

"What sister-in-law?" Ling felt that the tea tasted a bit bitter today. What was wrong?

Xie Changle is a good-for-nothing; he can't even brew a proper cup of tea.

Just then, Xie Chang'an returned. Ren Deyi and Luo Yizhen stood up, pointed to the kitchen, and kept winking at Xie Chang'an.

Xie Chang'an was completely bewildered. What had happened?
