I was divorced because I got pregnant during the lean years, so I went back to my parents’ home and

Embarrassed, he changed the subject:

"There is no clue about the Heartbreak Grass. These people are in the dark, and I am in the light. I am afraid that I will implicate you. I will have people secretly protect Mingyi Lane, and I will also investigate what happened with Princess Qing. Don't worry!"

Ji Xiaobei suddenly asked: "Princess Qing is interfering with my business, does it have anything to do with you?"

Fu Jichang's face flushed slightly: "Not necessarily, maybe your goods are too good and it affects her interests..."

Ji Xiaobei looked at the man in front of him. He had sharp eyebrows and angular cheeks. He looked cold and distant. He had an unattainable attitude. He was definitely the type that women would like.

She sneered in her heart: No matter how good a man is, he is not as free as being single!

Those women who rush into the marriage fortress are really desperate, especially in ancient times when women had to serve men after marriage.

Fu Jichang was a little confused about the ever-changing expression on Ji Xiaobei's face.

"From now on, if you have any problems, send someone to the government office to find me!"

Ji Xiaobei smiled and thought, is there anything that I, Ji Xiaobei, can’t solve?

If so, leave it unresolved for now.

After returning to Mingyi Lane, Mrs. Lin was busy tending to her vegetable garden.

Mrs. Fu's mental state seemed to have improved a lot.

The three children started exploring again.

Thanks to the new customers found by Ji Xiaobei, all the goods produced in the textile workshop were sold out.

Nothing else happened in the workshop.

Everything was calm again.

Zheng Guo has asked for the child's portrait countless times.

If Ji Xiaobei didn't let her get through, Zheng Guo would come over with his fist raised.

Zheng Guo placed cameras and mobile phones in the cold storage.

Ji Xiaobei could only look at modern high-tech things in the space; he could not open them or take them out.

Oh! I hope Zheng Guo can further develop the function of cold storage space.

The two little ones kept clamoring to go out and play. When they ran to the entrance of the north alley, the servant brother would smile and drive them back.

When I ran to the entrance of the west alley, I saw a kind-looking young man standing there.

The two children couldn't go out, so they went home and hugged Ji Xiaobei's thighs and made a fuss.

Ji Xiaobei was so annoyed by the nagging that he finally agreed to take them out to play and draw a portrait of them.

The two little kids took Ji Xiaobei's hands and pulled him into Fu Jichang's yard.

Guoguo climbed onto the desk, pulled out a clip from under a pile of papers and handed it to Ji Xiaobei.

Ji Xiaobei looked at the cover suspiciously, and saw a few unfamiliar traditional Chinese characters written on it.

Zheng Zheng stared at me with his big watery eyes and said, "Portrait!"

Ji Xiaobei flipped it open in astonishment. The top picture was a portrait of a female Zhang Fei. She was so angry that she was about to explode, and she just turned her little hand back.

It was a chubby little face, so adorable. Ji Xiaobei took one look at it and his anger disappeared.

It’s really beautiful!

The painting is so lifelike, depicting a naughty and clever little girl.

Behind him is Zhengzheng, with a chubby face and a pair of big black eyes staring at you, making people want to pinch his chubby little face.

Ji Xiaobei's lips curled up and he was stunned.

At the back are portraits of the two of them, one lying down and drinking from a bottle, one pouting in anger, one laughing happily, one running, one covering his mouth and acting cute...

He actually created a growth album for his two children!

Ji Xiaobei, as a mother, felt a little ashamed of herself for not even thinking of making a picture album for her child to capture those beautiful moments.

"You two, did you know that there were portraits of you here?"

Ji Xiaobei felt like he had missed something.

Guoguo nodded happily: "Dad... No, Uncle Fu always shows us his paintings after he finishes them..."

She was so scared that she quickly covered her mouth, her heart pounding.

She almost let it slip that this was a little secret between her and Fu Jichang.

Ji Xiaobei put the album away and carried them both down.

"Come on, Mommy will take you out to play!"

The two little guys happily hugged Ji Xiaobei and gave him a kiss.

Ji Xiaobei's eyebrows were curved with joy and her face was full of a motherly smile.

She drove Ji Decai out with Mrs. Lin and the two kids.

Ji Xiaobei felt that she was an incompetent daughter and an incompetent mother. She had been in Anzhou for so many days but had never taken them out to play once.

She first took them to Zheng Dafu and chose a suitable hairpin and a set of jewelry for Mrs. Lin.

Every time Ji Xiaobei gave it to her to wear, she said that she was at home taking care of the children and didn't need a good hairpin.

Just wear some!

Today Ji Xiaobei forced her to wear it. The old lady looked at herself in the mirror several times, and her old face was full of smiles.

He then took them out to eat delicious food. After they had eaten, Ji Xiaobei started to draw portraits of the two little ones.

Mrs. Lin agreed and said, "It's time to draw one. I'll draw another one on my birthday!"

After looking around the area, Mrs. Lin chose a larger portrait shop.

An old man with a white beard was sitting in the portrait gallery, reading a book. When he heard the footsteps, he raised his head, looked at Ji Xiaobei and the others, and asked, "A portrait?"

Ji Xiaobei glanced at the old man, then looked around the gallery. He felt a little uncomfortable, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.

Mrs. Huang has started chatting with the old man, and she is very satisfied with his paintings.

Ji Xiaobei didn't think much about it and decided to just draw here.

Guoguo looked cute and silly, sitting upright with a serious look.

The old man sat opposite the two of them and began to paint. The moment he raised his head, he glanced at Ji Xiaobei and a hint of evil flashed in his eyes.

Guoguo burst into tears with a "wow".

Mrs. Lin hurried over and comforted Guoguo.

"Guo'er, are you sleepy or tired?" Mrs. Lin hugged her and stroked her back lovingly.

Guoguo covered her little mouth, shrugged her little shoulders and sobbed, wanting to go out.

Ji Xiaobei said: "Mom, take the children back first. They have been playing all day and are tired!"

Mrs. Lin nodded and said, "Okay, I'll draw it next time. If not, let's go home!"

Mrs. Lin carried one child on her back and held another in her arms as she walked towards the donkey cart.

Seeing this, the little table quickly ran over and took it.

Ji Xiaobei took out 500 coins and put them on the table.

Suddenly I noticed a murderous look on the old man's face, which made me feel creepy.

Ji Xiaobei suddenly felt a chill on his back...

"My dear, your little girl's portrait will be ready soon. Please wait for a moment..."

The old man's hoarse voice echoed in the room.

The old man held the paintbrush in his withered hand and pressed it down hard. The paintbrush passed across the paper. A ferocious look appeared on the old man's face, and a withered hand suddenly stretched out towards Ji Xiaobei's neck...

The brush fell with a sound, and the portrait of the child on the table was stained with a large stain.
