Transmigrated into the original heroine of the period novel who was cannon fodder

Chapter 353 Cleared Footprints
Lingxi thought about it, went to the kitchen to boil a pot of hot water, and also heated up some steamed buns and brought them over.

Only then did she have time to ask Gu Si what was going on.

Gu Si checked the house carefully again. He was now in the shed where firewood was stored. When he saw Lingxi coming over, he motioned for Lingxi to look at the corner. The fallen leaves there were pushed aside by Gu Si, and he had sprinkled a layer of lime on the ground, revealing a footprint clearly.

Lingxi was really surprised this time.

She looked at the two-meter-high wall, which was still covered with broken porcelain and glass fragments. "Who is it?"

Then, Lingxi suddenly realized, "Is this what Dad and Director Zheng are talking about?"

Just say it!

Why are we inviting you to drink for no reason?
I thought that my dad had to shift his work focus and they might have less time to see each other in the future, so they got together.

I didn't expect it was really serious.

Lingxi was not worried about any danger, but was a little curious about who was so blind as to target their family.

Gu Si couldn't stop laughing.

"It's really short-sighted."

In fact, this man's technique was quite skillful. When he and Pei Yanning left, he habitually marked his territory. Some of the marks he deliberately painted on the wall were invisible under mental power, and a lot of the powder that was indistinguishable to the naked eye was rubbed off, so it did not escape their eyes.

Gu Si tells Lingxi about his and Pei Yanning's guesses.

"We met on the train, remember?"

Lingxi instantly understood who her fourth brother was talking about. Doctor Zhang and his wife took the same train with them when they came back for the New Year. They said they were here to visit Jin Qingyao and they also wanted Jin Qingyao to divorce his father. Unexpectedly, the marriage didn't end and he didn't leave either.

All the relations were transferred to the staff hospital of the machinery factory.

Even her wife came over with her.

It is said that the situation with their father was not very good, but Jin Qingyao did not choose to divorce at this juncture. Instead, she tried every possible way to settle her stepchildren.

It is said that many people praise Jin Qingyao because of this incident.

Saying that she is affectionate and loyal or something like that.

Lingxi basically never goes out at home, but she has good hearing. Jin Qingyao lives diagonally opposite her. In addition, Zhao Jianan and Gu Qingnan come to visit from time to time. Pei Yu will also come back and say a few words when he hears some gossip outside. As a result, Lingxi knows something.

But she didn't expect...

Gu Si raised his hand and held her shoulders.

"It's not a big deal, we can handle it ourselves. We just live in a group. If we do things quietly, others will be scared."

This explains why Pei Yanning went to the "waste of time" to find Director Zheng and Zeng Jiawang.

Lingxi nodded.

She didn't take it to heart, but her father and fourth brother noticed it. With them around, the ups and downs outside would not disturb the peace at home at all.

Lingxi's expression became softer.

She still remembers how she felt when her main soul regained control of this body. At that time, she was unfamiliar with everything.

When she was in the Immortal Heaven, the number of people she had met could be counted on one hand, and she didn’t even know how to get along with others.

Moreover, she once thought that the Pei family treated her well because she was Pei Lingxi and the original owner, while Gu Si's kindness to her was real only because the girl he loved happened to be her.

Because of this, she gradually opened her heart and let go of herself, and had a greater sense of identity with her own existence, which is why she is so unrestrained today.

Even though she already knew now that it had always been her,

But Lingxi can still clearly remember how alert and cautious she was when she was completely in the dark and didn't want to arouse suspicion from her family.

Gu Si found the footprints and left them for Zheng Bing and Zeng Jiawang to see later. He then planned to go back to the house with Lingxi. It was still cold outside. When he turned around, he saw Lingxi seemed to be in some memories.

He lowered his head and rubbed her face to comfort her.

"What's wrong? What are you worried about? Fourth brother and dad are here!"

Lingxi came back to her senses, the expression on her face was unusually gentle.

"I know. I just remembered the past." She pushed herself into his arms, hugged his waist, and refused to let go.

"It's great that you and Dad are here."

Gu Si's expression suddenly softened and he tilted his head.

But at this moment——

"Cough cough cough-"

Pei Yu and Pei Xuan, who had gone to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy things, met on the road and came back together. Unexpectedly, they saw this scene as soon as they entered the yard. They looked at each other and made some verbal warnings.

Gu Si Lingxi: "..."

!!!

Pei Yu complained.

"There's no place to stay at home? Why do you have to hide in the woodshed?"

Lingxi blushed instantly.

Gu Si was quite shameless, "Second brother, you don't understand, this is a hobby, hey, second brother, you are already old, tut tut."

Pei Yu, who was suddenly stabbed in the heart, said: "..."

!!!

Yes, yes, you are amazing, you know a lot, okay!
He looked at Lingxi and his unlucky brother again, and they were also laughing so hard.

Pei Yu covered his chest with his hands and looked hurt. He was just about to say a few words to Gu Si in the same tone that he had used to tease his sister when he saw that Lingxi and Pei Xuan, who had been laughing quite reservedly, actually laughed out loud. He almost laughed to tears.

Gu Si was also amused by Pei Yu's action.

"This expression doesn't suit you, second brother."

Well, a macho man acting like a spoiled child or something, hahahaha, that’s really inappropriate!
Pei Yu: "..."

!!!

"That's a good point, please stop talking."

puff--

Lingxi held back her laughter, and thought of something to change the subject, motioning Pei Yu to look at the footprints that Gu Si had just made on the wall.

Pei Yu and Pei Xuan's faces turned ugly for a moment, and they immediately straightened their expressions.

"Don't worry about this. Go accompany Hanhan and A Zhao. It's not appropriate for you to get involved in this matter."

After spending so much time together, the Pei brothers all knew that Gu Si was no ordinary person, but out of habit, their first reaction was to leave Ling Xi and Gu Si out first.

Who knows who crawled in?
Is it for money, or for something else?
Don't be desperate...

Gu Si Lingxi understood what Pei Yu meant.

Gu Si pointed in a direction.

"That's about it. I'll leave the second and third brothers to you."

Pei Yu and Pei Xuan nodded.

The two brothers began to clear the leaves here and sprinkle lime on them. As expected, when they saw the footsteps emerging above, their faces became very ugly.

Pei Yanning, Zheng Bing and Zeng Jiawang only ate for about ten minutes, less than twenty minutes.

Now that I came out, I saw the movement track they had cleared.

Ran straight to Pei Yanning's bedroom window.

There is a swamp outside the wall of their house. If you step in, half a person will sink into it. It is not as dangerous as a swamp in the wilderness, but if the children are naughty, it is hard to say what will happen.

Therefore, that piece of land was directly fenced off in the factory, and no one has paid attention to what is going on inside recently.

I didn't expect that someone would take advantage of me.
