Chapter 28: The Ridiculous Toad

()(Thank you very much for Liupo’s 1888 reward)

"Ah, it's Aunt Victoria."

When Angela heard this gentle female voice, she turned her head in surprise.

A woman in her forties walked forward quickly.

She has a plump figure, a fair face, black pupils, a high nose bridge, slightly curved red lips, and a slightly charming smile on her cheeks.

Only the broad and elegant forehead and the delicate and bright eyes are engraved with the marks of light.

This is a beautiful woman who still has charm.

She happily stepped forward and took the shy Angela into her arms. Then she held up Angela's bright and beautiful face and looked around carefully. She found that she was no different from when she went out before.

He let go of his embrace, then took her fair and tender right hand, and turned to look at Li Huo, who was standing aside, posing as a passerby, making a soy sauce gesture.

He is about twenty-three or four years old. He has short black hair that is smooth and close-fitting. He looks gentle and calm. He has thick eyebrows, double eyelids, bright black pupils, a straight nose bridge, medium-sized lips, and slightly slanted lips.

The cheeks and spine are straight, and the powerful shoulders are as solid and reliable as mountain peaks.

This is a gentle and reliable young man. Victoria, a middle-aged woman, looked Li Huo up and down and secretly came to a conclusion in her heart.

Since she gave Li Huo a high score in her heart, she had a good attitude towards Li Huo: "Young man, are you Angela's suitor? Then you have to work hard, our An'an is not a casual girl.

, What's more, she is now a professional, and in the future she will break through Andalil's blockade and go to Lugaoin. Although Auntie thinks you are pretty good, you won't be able to get what you want if you don't work hard."

"No...no, aunt, he is Li Huo, the captain of our team. Not that...that or something." Angela's face turned red and she stuttered as she explained.

"Yes, Aunt Victoria, this time Angela and I formed a team to go on an adventure. We worked well together. We plan to go on as a team for a long time, but I have no place to live in Rogge Camp, so we decided to stay in Angela's camp.

At home, we can deepen mutual understanding and enhance tacit understanding of cooperation." Li Huo explained to Angela while hitting the snake on the stick.

"Oh, is that so? This is actually better, isn't it?" Victoria understood very well and did not pursue him fiercely, but she still couldn't help but wink at Li Huo and tease him.

"Auntie~Auntie~" Angela called out softly, a little embarrassed.

"Haha, okay, okay, I won't say it anymore. Isn't it okay if I don't say it?" Victoria smiled, scraped the bridge of Angela's delicate nose with her left hand, and said gently: "How about you two spend the night together?

Come to our house for dinner.”

"No, Auntie, we didn't get a solid meal this time, so we won't go to your house today. I'm sorry." Angela refused.

"Okay, you two, just enjoy the warmth between the two of you." Victoria couldn't help teasing Angela before finally leaving.

Angela and Li Huo looked at each other, feeling that the situation was quite awkward.

"This Aunt Victoria is a very kind and kind person." Li Huo wanted to break the embarrassment, so he brought the topic to the woman who had just left.

"Yes, Aunt Victoria is the best neighbor to me. When my mother was still alive, she was my mother's best sister. After my mother passed away, she cared about me like a mother. In my heart, she is mine.

Second mother." Angela looked at Victoria's retreating back and murmured her inner voice.

Seeing that Angela seemed to be falling into sad memories again, Li Huo hurriedly changed the subject: "Angela, you're already at the door of your house, why don't you invite me in to sit down?"

Angela was suddenly interrupted by Li Huo's thoughts. When she heard Li Huo's seemingly complaining words, she hurriedly walked in the lead and apologized: "I'm sorry, captain, when we came in, the room was small, the environment was not good, and we made you laugh.

"

"Angela, if you can live here, there's nothing wrong with me. I'm not that rich." Li Huo followed Angela and walked into the narrow courtyard with a smile, looking around as he said.

This old hut is a two-story house. When you enter the house, you will find a living room of average size. Behind the living room is the kitchen. The stairs to the second floor are at the innermost left side of the living room.

There were simply a few pieces of old pine wood furniture placed in the living room, making the entire living room, which was obviously small, feel empty.

After entering the room, Angela turned to Li Huo and asked: "Captain, I have something to do and want to go to my mother's room for a while. From now on, you can rest in my room and I will rest in my mother's room. Now you are waiting downstairs."

Should I go to my room and wait for me?"

"Go to your room." Li Huo had not entered the girl's room yet. He wanted to take a peek at what the legendary girl's boudoir looked like.

The two stepped on the slightly swaying wooden stairs and climbed to the second floor.

Although this cabin is relatively old, the distance between the ceiling and the floor during design and construction is still relatively large.

The two walked up to the second floor. Although the corridor on the second floor was quite narrow, it was not stuffy because of the large distance between the roof and the ground.

There are two rooms on the second floor. The one near the corridor is Angela's room, and the innermost one is the room where Angela's mother lives.

Angela opened her door and turned sideways to let Li Huo walk in.

She stood by the door, tried her best to smile, and said: "Captain, you can see for yourself. I'm going to the side. If you need anything, just call me."

After saying that, Angela turned around and left quickly. Li Huo only heard Angela walking quickly a few times, and then the sound of opening and closing the door, and then no more sounds were heard.

Li Huo carefully inspected the house where Angela lived, but found that except for a single wooden bed, a wooden desk, and a stool, there was nothing else in the house.

There are no girls' clothes, girls' toys, or girls' decorations in someone's imagination.

Nothing.

Even the bed was empty, with only a wooden board lying there alone.

Li Huo slapped his head and suddenly realized, no wonder Angela didn't care that Li Huo entered her room.

He forgot that Angela was already a professional and had inventory space.

I'm afraid that when she left home to go on an adventure, she had already put everything in the house into her inventory.

Li Huo walked around the room several times speechlessly, then took out his quilt and other items and put them on the bed.

Then, he glanced around the room a few times, frowned, and felt that he should buy a wardrobe and put it here, otherwise he would always put things in the inventory, making the inventory cluttered, and he felt a little uncomfortable.

When he talked about buying a wardrobe, he suddenly realized that the gold coins he got from selling the equipment had not yet been distributed to Angela.

So, Li Huo opened the door and prepared to knock on Angela's door and give her the gold coins.

Li Huo likes to land with his heels first when walking, and his heels are usually placed very lightly when landing, so it is difficult for Li Huo to make too much noise when walking.

When Li Huo walked to the door of Angela's room and was about to knock on the door, he faintly heard soft sobbing coming from inside.

His raised right arm stopped suddenly and stood still in mid-air. Li Huo sighed heavily in his heart. Knowing that it was not the time to disturb Angela, he did not knock on the door again, but turned around and left gently.

.



Night finally began to envelope the entire world.

Various colors, various styles, bright or dark lights gradually light up.

The oil lamp in Angela's house was also lit.

Although the yellow lights are not very bright, the hazy look has a special mood.

After Angela vented her sadness, she walked out of the room.

She greeted Li Huo, then went downstairs and entered the kitchen, intending to make a sumptuous dinner to satisfy their stomachs.

Li Huo took the opportunity to stop Angela and give her the gold coins.

Angela silently took the gold coins and put them in her inventory. Although she didn't speak, Li Huo still felt a trace of the long-lasting melancholy in Sui Feng from her expression. Li Huo had noticed it since the first time the two met.

dissipate.

Perhaps it was because Angela's melancholy disappeared, she was busy briskly in the kitchen, and Li Huo felt a little happy from the rhythmic symphony of pots and pans.

He didn't know if this was an illusion, but he would rather it was an illusion than dwell on some inexplicable things.

What he wants to do now is to enjoy Angela's craftsmanship and take risks. The two of them eat quickly, just to fill their stomachs.

Although Li Huo could still feel an ounce of Angela's excellent cooking skills, it was still far from this relaxing moment of waiting.

Li Huo cleaned his hands, asked Angela and then placed the tableware for the two of them. When Angela put all the food on the table, the two sat down opposite each other. When they were about to start, a voice came.

"Angela, Angela! I heard that you are back and Aunt Ina is here to see you. Why don't you come out to greet her?"

Li Huo frowned when he heard this. He always felt that there was no good intention in this voice.

Angela's originally gentle face suddenly became tense. She put down the tableware in her hands, got up and walked outside the room.

When Li Huo saw Angela walking out, he also put down the tableware in his hands, stood up and looked outside the room.

Angela's home is in the civilian area of ​​Rogge Camp. The streets here are narrow and criss-crossed by alleys. Naturally, there are no street lights.

The distant lights made Angela's small courtyard even darker. Standing in the house, Li Huo could not see clearly what was going on in the courtyard.

He only heard the pretentious greeting of a sharp and mean middle-aged woman: "Angela, you should have a good time when you go out this time. As a new professional, you can return safely. It seems that your team is very good at it."

You will still take good care of me."

"Aunt Ina, what can I do for you?" Angela asked politely.

"Haha, it's nothing serious. I heard that you were back, so I came over to see you. I was very happy to see that you were okay." Ina, a middle-aged woman, laughed and suddenly revealed her purpose: "By the way.

, Our Gates is also very happy to know that you are back. When will you go over to see him, or ask him to come over to see you now? "

"Aunt Ina, although I am very grateful that your family was able to lend money to our family at a critical moment, Gates is a good person and we are not suitable, so you should not talk about this matter again." Angela remained calm.

Said to Ina.

"Haha, there is nothing suitable or inappropriate. These days, as long as you get married and live your life, the two of you can slowly get along. It doesn't matter if you are not used to it now. It will be fine as soon as you get used to it. Okay.

, it’s settled, I’ll go over and call me right away

Gates, come here, you two have a good chat tonight. Young people, if you chat more, you will get to know each other quickly. Our Gates is a good and obedient child." Ina didn't care about Angela's refusal at all.

He refused to give up and forced Angela to have contact with her children.
