The Evil Man’s Lazy Lady Chapter 38 (Part 1)
Chapter 38: Renovation Plan (1) Original translation is from tenderflower's blog.
“Ah Lang, we’re going to town, you and Ah Lan be good at home, remember to wake her up for lunch later!”
Before going out, Qin-shi warned Xiao Lang unease again. The fire the night before burned up all of Xiao Lang’s belongings. She didn’t want to go to Xiao Shouyun’s house to ask for the clothes Xiao Lang brought with him, so she had to temporarily find the old clothes that were Shu Zhan’s and wash them for him. It just so happened that she hadn’t seen her son for a while, so she picked a small basket of apricots and planned to take Shu Wan to her parent’s house to have a look first, and then pull cloth for the children to make clothes.
“Mm, I’ll take a good look at Ah Lan. Aunt, don’t worry, be careful on the road.” Xiao Lang stood at the door of the kitchen and watched Qin-shi mother and daughter leave. After the two of them disappeared, he smiled softly, closed the door, and walked briskly to Sister Shu Wan’s room.
Shu Lan was still sleeping.
Xiao Lang took off his shoes and got on the heated-brick bed. He sat on the edge and looked at the sleeping lazy girl. Since he understood the differences between men and women, this seemed to be the first time he saw Shu Lan’s appearance when she didn’t wake up. Although he had the opportunity to enter the two sisters’ room before, he obediently refused to enter because of the presence of Shu’s family. Unexpectedly, this was only the third day of living in, and there was such a chance to be alone with her.
It was a pity that the lazy girl had grown up. She didn’t wear a backless dùdōu like she did when she was a child, but she wore a loose pear-white shirt. The material was silky and light, and the collar was loosened, revealing delicate butterfly bones and large areas of white and tender skin.
Holding Shu Lan’s collar, he tilted his head and looked inside. It was flat, no different from when she was a child.
Xiao Lang sighed helplessly. The lazy girl was too short. He was afraid it would take a long time for it to grow up there? But it was strange. Both Shu Maoting and Qin-shi were tall, Shu Wan had reached Qin-shi’s ears now, and Shu Zhan stood out in school. Why was the lazy girl so short? Could it be she liked to sleep and didn’t move around?
That couldn’t be done. He wanted to see her grow taller. Even if she was younger, he could do some things.
Thinking of doing it, Xiao Lang directly lifted Shu Lan up.
It was impossible for anyone to feel comfortable when someone grabbed the collar. Shu Lan, who was sleeping soundly, opened her eyes unhappily. She saw Xiao Lang, and pouted: “Older brother Wolf, why don’t you let me sleep?”
Xiao Lang naturally took off Shu Lan’s inner clothes, picked up the green skirt that was stacked next to it, and put it on for her. While tying the belt, he said: “What time is it and you’re still sleeping? Eat first, and after you’re done, I’ll take you to fork fish in the river, and let Aunt make steamed fish to eat at noon.”
Steamed fish was one of Shu Lan’s favorite meat dishes.
Her big eyes brighten up immediately. She put on silk socks, jumped off the heated-brick bed, and said: “I’m going to wash my face now!” She bent over to put on her shoes and ran out happily.
Xiao Lang stood in front of the north door, watching Shu Lan wash her face nimbly, then ran towards him with the hairband, and said coquettishly: “Older brother Wolf, help me comb my hair...” A strand of hair beside her ear was soaked in water. It was wet and sticking to her white, red face. The contrast between black and white made the face so tender that it seemed to be able to squeeze water.
He bent over to sit on the threshold and put the low stool next to it in front of him. Before he could speak, Shu Lan ran over, stuffed the hairband and the wooden comb into his hands, and sat obediently with her back to him.
Xiao Lang smiled silently. He brushed her hair gently, made a bun on one side, and then turned her to face him, brushing her bangs.
Seeing Xiao Lang’s face in front of her, Shu Lan blinked her big eyes. She couldn’t help but reach out and touched it, giggling: “Older brother Wolf, if you are as white as my brother, you will definitely look better than him.”
Xiao Lang paused. He couldn’t understand what was so beautiful about a little white face? Looking at each of them, they look weak and couldn’t stand the blow of the wind, just like the eldest daughter and the little daughter-in-law.
“Ah Lan, remember, men only need to be dark. Look at how strong I am, your brother can’t beat me.” Putting the comb aside, Xiao Lang held Shu Lan’s small chin and looked into her eyes as he said.
His eyes were so serious that Shu Lan believed it after a little hesitation. She remembered the scene where Shu Zhan and Xiao Lang started hands before. Although the impression was not too deep, she vaguely remembered Xiao Lang throwing her brother to the ground. Hmm, although the dark face was ugly, it could make people stronger, and that was not bad.
“Let’s go to the river now!”
“Wait, you haven’t had breakfast yet.”
“Not eating, I’m not hungry anyway!”
“No, eat more to grow taller faster.”
Xiao Lang refused and pressed Shu Lan to the dining table. He brought out the warm food in the pot and fed it to her with his own hands. Shu Lan felt full after drinking a bowl of porridge, but at Xiao Lang’s insistence, she drank another bowl.
Seeing Xiao Lang wanting to feed her again, Shu Lan jumped up with her eyes wide open, and said angrily: “Not eat, you bully me!”
What kind of bullying was this?
Xiao Lang put down the bowl and chopsticks helplessly: “Okay, I won’t force you to eat. You go over there and wait. I’ll take you out after cleaning the pot.”
Shu Lan immediately smiled with satisfaction and obediently moved to the side to watch Xiao Lang busy. Humph, if he forced her to drink porridge again, she would let him lick her toes! That was what he promised her!
If Xiao Lang knew what she was thinking, he would definitely regret not insisting, but now he just wanted to get rid of Shu Lan’s problem of sleeping all day. He had no intention of taking advantage of her.
After locking the door, Xiao Lang carried the wooden bucket and bamboo spear in one hand, and Shu Lan in the other hand to the river. The two of them were so different in size that others would only think he was coaxing children, and would never think too much about it.
When they reached the river, Xiao Lang did not stop immediately but kept pulling Shu Lan upstream.
