Futuristic Chef Transmigrated As Mother Chapter 211 – 211 An Actor

211 An Actor

Xiaoguo was a little dissatisfied when she heard Jiang Danhe’s words. It was as good as saying nothing. However, she also understood that if Jiang Danhe decided to keep his mouth shut, she wouldn’t be able to pry anything out of his mouth. Zhuang Zhuang was exactly the same as him.

“Hey, where are you going?”

Jiang Danhe looked at Xiaoguo, who was rolling her eyes and getting up to leave. He called out to her nervously. Was his teasing too much for her to bear?

“To cook for someone.”

With that, Xiaoguo walked towards the kitchen without looking back.

Jiang Danhe chuckled and looked at her departing figure. He stood up and said, “Let’s go together.”

“What are you coming with me?”

“To start a fire.”

“How silly…”

The next morning, Xiaoguo was still sleeping when she was suddenly woken up by a scream outside. She subconsciously looked around for Zhuang Zhuang. When she was more awake, she remembered that Zhuang Zhuang was sleeping in another room with Jiang Danhe.

By now, Xiaoguo was wide awake. She tried to remain calm and put on her clothes and shoes. After tidying up the bed, she left the house to check things out.

Judging from the commotion outside, it should be what Jiang Danhe had mentioned to her.

Xiaoguo was secretly curious about how Jiang Danhe would expose Li Zhaodi and Chou Louzi. She pretended to be calm in case anyone saw through her unusual expression.

Jiang Danhe stood by the window in the house and looked at Xiaoguo’s excited back view. He smiled helplessly. She was really cute. He finally understood now. When he was in the capital, the emperor had told him that Xiaoguo didn’t look like a woman at all. She moved more like a little girl.

She looked totally just like a little girl. Jiang Danhe retracted his gaze and shook his head with a smile. While rushing out to watch the commotion, she had forgotten to roll down her collar.

Jiang Danhe returned to the bed and gently adjusted the earmuffs on Zhuang Zhuang’s ears. He looked kindly at the boy’s rosy face as he slept. “Carry on sleeping, my child.”

This was the first time Xiaoguo had taken the initiative to check out a commotion. Afraid that Mrs. Yang was still unaware, the first thing Xiaoguo did when she went out was to knock on Mrs. Yang’s door.

As soon as Mrs. Yang appeared at the door, Xiaoguo excitedly dragged her towards the bustling place.

Mrs. Yang was dumbfounded. This was quite unusual. Why was Xiaoguo more anxious than her this time?

Along the way, Xiaoguo couldn’t act like she knew. She could only pretend and say that there was something interesting to watch.

Mrs. Yang loved to rubber-neck. When she heard this, she ran faster than Xiaoguo. It was her turn to drag Xiaoguo with her.

As she ran, she asked, “Where? Where? Where?”

Xiaoguo vaguely mentioned a place. “I don’t know either, but from the sounds of it, it should be at the village chief’s door.”

The night before, Xiaoguo had begged Jiang Danhe for a long time before he gave her a clue. He just said the words—village chief’s house.

With a specific destination in mind, Mrs. Yang ran like the wind. Xiaoguo was dragged along so quickly that she was on the verge of screaming. They were running at lightning speed!

As they approached the place, they could see a fair-skinned couple wrapped in each other’s arms, engaging in an indecent act.

The village chief’s wife was screaming. There were a few unidentified characters among the crowd who were also screaming, seemingly trying to attract attention. When they saw more people starting to crowd around, they immediately retreated and fled.

The two of them were the first few to arrive. Since there were not many people crowding around yet, they easily found a good spot. Slowly, the crowd became larger and some even came with melon seeds and peanuts.

When Mrs. Yang and Xiaoguo got close enough and saw what the couple was doing, they couldn’t help but exclaim at the same time. Fortunately, they hadn’t eaten breakfast, or they would have thrown everything up.

“How shameless they are to do this in broad daylight.”

Someone who came later to the scene couldn’t help but spit at the two of them. However, his eyes were still glued to the rolling couple on the ground.

When Xiaoguo saw this, she pulled Mrs. Yang away from the man. Such a character was quite disgusting. He claimed that the couple was disgusting, but who knows, he could be as repugnant as the two of them.

“Oh my God!”

Mrs. Yang covered her mouth and felt like throwing up. “What was Li Zhaodi doing with that man?”

Xiaoguo also covered her mouth, but she was smiling. If she hadn’t overheard their plan, she would have been the one putting on the show today.

With this thought in mind, a dark glint flashed across Xiaoguo’s eyes. “Have a taste of your own medicine, Li Zhaodi.”

Finally, the voices from the crowd woke the intoxicated couple. They hurriedly broke away from each other and looked for cover. However, the setup was intentional, so the surroundings had been cleared out. With not even a soil mound in sight, the two of them could only squat down in a panic and wrap their arms around themselves. However, it was clearly useless. Whatever they tried to shield was still exposed.

Xiaoguo looked away for a moment. If she had to look at them for another second, her eyes would go blind.

However, looking at their faces, there were no wounds on them. Who had Jiang Danhe hit?

The village chief’s wife had fainted from anger earlier and was slowly waking up now. No one could possibly be in a good mood if they saw such a scene at their doorstep first thing in the morning.

The village chief also clutched at his heart and tried to hit Chou Louzi with a stick, but he was stopped by someone.

Xiaoguo thought that it was a pity. If only no one had stopped him… he could then give the man a good beating.

As soon as the thought flashed past her mind, for some reason, the hand that reached out to stop the village chief slipped, and the stick landed hard on the back of Chou Louzi. His back instantly became red and swollen. He cried out in pain while Xiaoguo exclaimed in satisfaction.

Having vented his anger, the old village chief stopped trembling. He pointed at the despicable couple and cursed at them.

Before he had finished ranting at them, a man suddenly appeared from among the crowd. He pointed at Li Zhaodi, who was on the ground, and started cursing. All kinds of unpleasant words were spat at Li Zhaodi, forcing her to move backwards.

Out of nowhere, somebody kicked Li Zhaodi’s butt, which was getting closer and closer to the crowd. When the man who was scolding her saw her falling towards him, he subconsciously pushed her away. That sent Li Zhaodi sprawling to the ground, with her bare body completely exposed.

There were all kinds of marks on her skin, and everyone looking on was cursing at her. All kinds of insults were thrown at her and Chou Louzi.

Seeing that the situation was getting out of hand, the old village chief quickly called out to the man, who had come out to scold Li Zhaodi. “Which village are you from? You don’t look like you’re from Peach Blossom Village.”

When the man heard the old village chief’s words, his disdainful expression instantly disappeared. He immediately cried and hugged the old village chief’s leg, crying out for justice. “Village chief, you have to help me. Some time ago, Li Zhaodi asked me to help her knock out a man in exchange for five taels of silver. But later on, she suddenly changed her mind. Not only did she back out from paying me, she even got someone to beat me up. What an injustice…”

As soon as he said that, there were gasps around him. Everyone was trying to guess if he was telling the truth.

Even Mrs. Yang asked Xiaoguo curiously, “Isn’t Li Zhaodi crazy? Why would she do such things?”

Xiaoguo sneered. “Who knows if she’s really crazy?”

The old village chief rubbed his chest again. He forced himself to stand up and looked at Li Zhaodi. “Li Zhaodi, are you really crazy or are you faking it?”

Li Zhaodi was always creating trouble in the village. The village chief wondered if his body could take all this drama.

After the effects of the medicine wore off, Li Zhaodi finally came back to her senses and took a good look at her surroundings. With a scream, she got everyone’s eyes on her again. When the onlookers heard the old village chief’s question, everyone immediately suspected if she was really crazy.

Seeing that she was not talking, the man spoke again. “Of course she’s pretending to be crazy. She’s doing this so that you wouldn’t chase her out, and continue to provide her with shelter and food.”

Afraid that no one would believe him, the man added, “She told me this herself.”

As soon as the man finished speaking, the old village chief and everyone around him looked at Li Zhaodi. “Is that true, Li Zhaodi?”

Using someone’s sympathy was the worst thing to do. The old village chief was completely furious. Over the past few days, he spent so much effort going from door to door, begging fellow villagers for food to give to Li Zhaodi. To think that everything was just an act. It was completely unforgivable.
