Chapter 272 Shock! Ah Li is actually a beautiful woman!
When Jiang Shuzhi returned from work, she heard that a big baby had been found!
They immediately pulled Ah Li back to the old house from the courtyard house, and measured her body and compared shoes.
A-Li was caught off guard by Jiang Shuzhi's sudden enthusiasm and blushed, saying, "Madam, please don't bother. I can't possibly trouble you like this."
Jiang Shuzhi, however, seemed not to hear her, her face beaming with joy, muttering, "This child, talking nonsense. Now that he's entered the family, we're all family."
What Xixi and the others have, you have too. I won't favor one over the other!
Lin Yong took a couple of puffs of his pipe and sat on the stool next to him, nodding incessantly: "In a couple of days, we'll hold a family reunion banquet. You should start addressing him differently!"
Ah Li stood there helplessly, letting Jiang Shuzhi do as she pleased, feeling a warm glow in her heart.
Lin Yong, who was standing to the side, tapped his pipe and interjected, "Ah Li, if anyone bullies you after you become a member of the Lin family, just tell me, and I'll stand up for you."
Although we're not a wealthy family, we live an honest and law-abiding life in Wangyue Village, and no one dares to look down on us.
Ah Li's eyes reddened slightly, and she nodded quickly: "Grandpa, it is my great fortune to be able to be filial to you two."
I lost my parents when I was young and experienced the coldness of human nature. I never thought I would have a home again and be loved by someone like this...
As she spoke, Ah Li could no longer hold back and covered her face, bursting into tears.
He thought he would never have family affection in his life, but when he came to Wangyue Village, he was blessed. It all seemed like God was making it up to him.
Jiang Shuzhi's eyes welled up with tears as she listened, and she gently patted A Li's back: "A Li, the hard times of the past are over, this is your home from now on!"
Next year, your mother will definitely find you a beautiful young wife, so you can live a happy and harmonious life from now on!
Ah Li, who was wailing loudly, suddenly stopped crying and then cried even more bitterly.
Jiang Shuzhi and Lin Yong were stumped. They looked at each other and scratched their heads.
Did they fail to offer adequate comfort?
At this moment, Lin Xi and Gao Mengli walked in and saw this scene.
Lin Yong and Jiang Shuzhi, as if grasping at a straw, quickly blinked innocently at the two of them!
Lin Xi quickly moved closer to A Li, tilting her head to examine the wailing A Li: "Huh, why are you crying like this?!"
Upon hearing Lin Xi's voice, A Li sobbed as she looked up and saw Lin Xi and Gao Mengli. "Master, Madam... if... if I said I was... a young woman, would you... believe me?"
"What????"
When the four heard what Ah Li said, their eyes nearly popped out of their sockets in shock.
The room fell silent instantly; you could hear a pin drop. Lin Xi's eyes widened, and her mouth gaped open enough to fit an egg.
He stammered back, "Ah Li, you... what did you say? You're a young woman? This... how is that possible!"
Gao Mengli was also astonished, looking A Li up and down. Although A Li was rather thin, she was quite pretty.
But in her daily words, actions, and work, she doesn't resemble a young lady at all.
She's not even a tomboy.
Now that I'm telling her that she's a girl, it's completely shattered her expectations.
She couldn't help but sigh, realizing that her imagination was ultimately too limited!
Ah Li quickly got up and knelt in front of Lin Yong and Jiang Shuzhi: "Grandma, Grandpa, Ah Li did not mean to hide it."
However, I am a woman, not a man, and in the end, you have all misplaced your trust in me…
These days, girls are different from boys. I wonder if the Lin family will look down on her for being a girl...
They treated her sincerely, and she couldn't bear to deceive them like that.
Jiang Shuzhi and Lin Yong came to their senses and quickly stepped forward to help A Li up.
Her eyes reddened, and she felt extremely distressed: "Child, get up quickly, what are you doing!"
What's this talk of misplaced or unplaced trust? Since you've entered our home, that's fate.
Whether you are male or female, we recognize you as a person.
Lin Yong nodded in agreement, tapping his pipe: "Ah Li, don't overthink it. Although this happened suddenly, we're not the kind of people who are old-fashioned."
"If you were a girl, we should treat you even better; we would never look down on you for not being a man."
Jiang Shuzhi nodded: "Yes, a girl can only enjoy some happiness when she is at her parents' home. We only regret that we did not recognize you as our daughter sooner."
If you go to your husband's family in the future, don't be afraid. If you suffer any grievances, just come back and tell us.
Our Lin family is your maternal family; the whole family will support you and ensure you don't suffer any mistreatment in your husband's family!
Lin Xi and Gao Mengli exchanged a glance; the Lin family was indeed a good family.
Otherwise, Gao Mengli's original form wouldn't have turned out so lawless.
If one were to be harsh and mistreat the child bride, the original owner might not have been able to raise her to be so audacious as to beat her in-laws.
Yang Qing and Zhu Mei, the third and second wives, never suffered any grievances in the Lin family. Of course, the grievances that the first wife once made to them do not count!
Now, it has nothing to do with the two of them, and they refuse to admit to this "crime"!
Seeing that Jiang Shuzhi and Lin Yong showed no sign of disdain for her, Ah Li finally relaxed.
Tears welled up again, this time filled with deep emotion.
She knelt down again with a thud, kowtowing heavily to the two of them several times, sobbing uncontrollably: "Father, Mother, I have no way to repay your great kindness."
"Eh!"
"Get up quickly!"
The two of them deserved it willingly and were extremely happy to do so!
After all, this is a "little cotton-padded jacket" (a term of endearment for a daughter), unlike those brats like Lin Fei and Lin Chi!
But that brat includes Lin Xi too!
The Lin family's only daughter, Lin Meng, is already married, and now they have another unmarried "daughter." It would be a lie to say they're not happy!
Jiang Shuzhi quickly bent down and helped A Li up with both hands, her eyes full of love: "Child, don't kneel anymore. It hurts my heart to see you kneeling."
From now on, we're one big, loving family, so please don't be so formal anymore.
Lin Yong, standing to the side, couldn't stop laughing and tapped his pipe: "Yes, yes, Ah Li, get up quickly."
You are such a well-behaved and sensible child; you are a blessing to the Lin family.
We're family, no need for formalities. If you encounter any difficulties in the future, just tell your parents.
This time, Ah Li stopped crying and smiled, nodding repeatedly.
She turned to look at Lin Xi and Gao Mengli somewhat shyly, and bowed, saying, "Big brother, sister-in-law!"
Gao Mengli: "..."
Lin Xi: "..."
They'll have to get used to the younger brother becoming a younger sister.
This girl didn't say she was a girl earlier. This month, she's been arranged to sleep in the same room as Yunze...
Lin Xi coughed lightly and said somewhat awkwardly, "Ah Li, I didn't know you were a girl before, and I'm really sorry for letting you live with Yun Ze."
Fortunately, nothing went wrong, and it certainly won't happen again.
Gao Mengli chimed in, trying to smooth things over: "Yeah, A-Li, don't take it to heart."
We'll prepare a room just for you, so you'll feel more comfortable there!
Ah Li blushed and quickly waved her hands, "Big brother, sister-in-law, it's not your fault, it's my fault for not saying so sooner."
“Ah Li, it would be even better if you were a girl. I made several outfits for Meng Li before.”
It's just finished and I haven't had a chance to take it over yet. It's perfect for you, let me take you to try it on!
"Mengli, come inside with me and see the clothes I made for you!"
Jiang Shuzhi immediately wanted to take A Li and Gao Mengli to change their clothes, after all, they were girls, and she preferred to dress them up beautifully!
Upon hearing this, Lin Xi quickly grabbed Jiang Shuzhi's hand: "Mother, what about mine?"
Jiang Shuzhi was taken aback: "Yours? What's yours?"
