After Qi Hao finished speaking, Jian Chongying no longer held it in and directly burst out laughing as he clutched his stomach. Chi Shuyan also couldn’t help but smile.
Qi Hao continued to complain, “That rascal didn’t give us the talismans he bought from Sister-in-law’s shop, but gave us the talismans that he drew. No, he sold them to us at first, but we didn’t want them and he forced them on us. But how would we dare use them? That pile of yellow paper which he drew on was just like scrap paper after that. They don’t look like the Peace Talismans in your shop, Sister-in-law. Also, this rascal gave the talismans which he grabbed from your shop to his family, but no one believed in it. They thought he was the one to draw them, and almost threw them away. So, Sister-in-law, don’t sell talismans to this rascal anymore. Giving them to him is a waste! Doesn’t this rascal know how to draw them himself? Let him use his own drawings in the future!”
Jian Chongying snickered and clutched his stomach again as he sat on the floor.
Wang Xuewen still wanted to be a disciple and couldn’t sit still when he was exposed. However, he actually heard this brat tell his future master not to sell him any talismans.
As for drawing the talismans himself, he never thought about doing it; he himself knew how much they were worth.
Wang Xuewen was so anxious that his face turned red. He rushed at Chi Shuyan and said, “Sister-in-law, don’t listen to Haozi that brat. Except for something happening to a few of them, I’ve been saving all the talismans I bought. I really am not wasting them!”
At that moment, Wang Xuewen thought of how his sister had encouraged his brother and parents to secretly throw away these precious talismans, and they really did throw away a few. His heart ached. He now knew full well that these were all good things, so how could he bear to part with them?
Wang Xuewen continued to lie through his teeth. “Don’t listen to Qi Hao’s nonsense. That kid is envious of my delicate and unusual bones, and of my talent in drawing talismans…!”
Before he could finish speaking, Chi Shuyan raised her eyebrows and asked the overly confident Wang Xuewen curiously, “Which expert found your bones amazing and your talent in drawing talismans extraordinary?”
‘Myself’ – this was the first time in Wang Xuewen’s life that he knew what it meant to have thin skin. He just couldn’t spit the word out, so he suddenly corrected himself. “Sister-in-law, why don’t you feel my bones again and see if I have any talent in this area? I’ve been especially inspired to draw talismans these days!”
Seeing this brat pull a surprise move to persuade his sister-in-law, Qi Hao hurriedly changed the subject. “Sister-in-law, my brother had an urgent matter and left the house early, so he asked me to wait here for you to wake up. Right, there’s food in the kitchen. Sister-in-law, go eat first; I’ll hold these two rascals down for you.”
“Says who?” Jian Chongying and Wang Xuewen said in unison.
Looking at Wang Xuewen’s face, which was flushed with excitement, Chi Shuyan patted his shoulder and told him to calm down. If he really wanted her to feel his bones later, she would give it a go.
She then let the boys play in the living room while she went to breakfast first.
Before she left, Qi Hao suddenly thought of something and picked up a package from the sofa and handed it over. “By the way, Sister-in-law, this is what my brother asked me to give you early in the morning!” After passing it to Chi Shuyan, Qi Hao was very curious about what his brother had given his sister-in-law. His brother had repeatedly warned him not to open it and to take a look. Given his brother’s usual awe-inspiring aura, Qi Hao was so honest that he didn’t dare open it.
Seeing Chi Shuyan take it, Qi Hao leaned over and wanted to peek a few more times, and the other boys also leaned over curiously.
Chi Shuyan saw the curious eyes of the boys and didn’t care. She was just about to open the package, when she suddenly felt something wasn’t right as the package felt familiar under her hand. She inexplicably thought of the words “sanitary pads” which she had blurted out last night, and her face changed drastically!
Damn!
That man didn’t really go out early in the morning to buy her sanitary pads, did he?
Ignoring the boys’ curious looks, she quickly found an excuse to go back to her room.
When she went back to her room and opened the package to see several large packets of sanitary pads inside, she remembered that the man had asked Qi Hao to pass them to her. If she hadn’t reacted fast enough, she would have opened the package in front of the boys and let them see the sanitary pads. Chi Shuyan thought of that image, and her mouth twitched coldly. She simply had the urge to kill herself with a piece of tofu!
