The Twelfth Clause, The Devil's Rule

  The Twelfth Clause, The Devil's Law

  "Brute, how come your cooking is so delicious? - Huh, huh, Bao'er, slow down, it's hot... " Tang Guo said while feeding porridge into his mouth, speaking to Lin Baorer who was eating with his head down.

  "How come you're not afraid of being scalded? It's strange, the porridge made by that beast is different from the one made by Sister Mo Hong. It smells so good!"

  Shen Mo rolled her eyes, these two traitors, see who will cook for you next time. Although she was very hungry and the porridge was unexpectedly fragrant, she still elegantly and delicately used a shiny stainless steel spoon to slowly feed herself, unlike Tang Guo and Lin Bao'er - the two of them were gobbling down their food while constantly staring at each other's bowls, guarding against the other eating more or faster than themselves.

  Ye Qiu simply added some coriander powder that she had brought from the mountain to the porridge. Coriander is a commonly used seasoning in rural areas, with a greenish color and strong fragrance. After drying it, it is ground into powder and put into dishes or porridge, giving them a unique flavor. Moreover, it is purely natural, without any additives, and does not contain trisodium phosphate.

  He didn't expect that the three thousand jin-sized sisters would have such a big appetite for this rural specialty. After cooking the porridge, he even ran over to ask them if they wanted some, and only when they said no did he hastily rush off to the bathroom - better to believe in ghosts than to trust a woman's mouth. Poor Ye Qiu, if she had come back any later, all that would have been left for her was washing dishes.

  When the porridge was divided up cleanly, Lin Baobao stretched out her little tongue to lick the remaining residue on the spoon. Tang Guo patted his round belly contentedly and glanced at Ye Qiu with a sideways glance, his face stern as he said: "Considering your porridge is so well-made, I've decided to let you stay."

  Then Tang Guo stopped and waited for Ye Qiu to say some words of gratitude. When watching CCMV news, leaders always do this. Unexpectedly, Ye Qiu sat there smiling at her, without any intention of speaking up.

  Tang Guo was secretly annoyed, but his face remained expressionless as he said, "Don't you want to say something?"

  Ye Qiu smiled and shook his head. Could he have said that this outcome was something I had already anticipated?

  "Rude guy." Tang Guo muttered under his breath, then continued: "You can stay if you want to, but there are some conditions you have to follow."

  Deprived of Ye Qiu's right to choose, Tang Guo continued: "Firstly, you must cook at least three meals for us every week, and the dishes will be decided by us."

  Tang Guo directly and bluntly stated his intentions to the local people. Anyway, this bodyguard couldn't be returned, so he might as well use him as a chef.

  "Three times is too little. Okay, sister Xin, how about six times? Or else twelve times?" Lin Baier said with a pout.

  "Lin Bao'er, we're about to start school, when will we have the chance to eat at home all day? Besides, I said at least three times - that is to say, as long as we want to eat, he'll have to cook anytime."

  After listening to Tang Guo's explanation, Lin Bao'er finally closed her mouth contentedly. She then lowered her head and began licking the rice grains in the bowl in front of her. Tang Guo slapped her palm over it, and she stopped this very unladylike behavior, sticking out her tongue at Shen Mo-chong.

  "Article 2: The cleaning of the living room and courtyard is your responsibility on single days of the week and our responsibility on double days."

  "Tangtang sister, why did you come back to us on Double Seventh Day?" Lin Baier asked in puzzlement once again.

  "Baby, you're so silly. There are four days in a single week and three days in a double week. If the double week is given to us, it's just right for each of the three of us to have one day. But if the single week is assigned to us for cleaning, it won't be easy to divide."

  "Oh. Indeed." Lin Baier nodded in agreement.

  "Article 3: No drinking or bringing other women into the villa. Meijun's sister is allergic to alcohol, I dislike those vulgar women, but I guess there won't be any woman coming back with you - hahaha."

  “－－－－”

  "Article 4: The second floor is a private space for three beauties, you are not allowed to enter."

  "Article 5: Do not use the bathroom inside the villa, the one outside can be for your private use, we won't fight with you over it - remember to flush and wash your hands after using the bathroom."

  "Article 6: When I go to school, you are not allowed to follow me."

  "When I meet friends, you need to keep a distance of 100 meters from me - no, no, 300 meters."

  "Article 8: The underwear hung on the balcony or in the yard is not allowed to be looked at, let alone secretly taken away."

  "Tang Tang, what are you talking about." Shen Mo said with a red face, staring at Tang Guo.

  "Article 9: You are not allowed to think about doing anything obscene or indecent with Mo Nong's sister." Lin Bao'er added with a giggle.

  "You two dead girls, are you itching for a fight?" Shen Mo concentrated his hand to tear Tang Guo and Lin Bao'er's mouths.

  "Sister Mo Nong, we were wrong. You look so good and have such a large bust, we were afraid she would have ulterior motives towards you, so we gave her a preemptive warning shot for your own good." The two girls hurriedly begged for forgiveness.

  After the three women had made a fuss for a while, Tang Guo's delicate small face tightened again, looking at Ye Qiu said: "Article 11 -"

  "Tangtang sister, it should be the tenth one——" Lin Baobao reminded kindly.

  "--- I'll say the eleventh article doesn't work? Article 11: The above ten articles must be unconditionally observed, and no objections may be raised. Article 10: We reserve the right to expand the terms, and new provisions may be added according to actual circumstances. --- Meijiang sister, Bao'er, do you have anything else to add?"

  The two women shook their heads in unison. They wanted to add more but couldn't.

  "Alright, let's leave it at that for now." Tang Guo nodded and said. "By the way, you used the bowls and plates today, so you should be the one to wash them. Don't worry, we won't bully you - if we cooked the meal, we'd also wash the dishes ourselves."

  Ye Qiu was about to cry, isn't this bullying?

  After washing the dishes, Ye Qiu saw that the three women were still in the living room. Shen Mo was reading a book, while Tang Guo and Lin Bao'er were playing a competitive game on two laptops, their faces radiant with joy.

  Ye Qiu stood at the door, staring blankly for a while. When he saw Shen Mocong raise her head to look at him with vigilance, he nodded at her and turned to walk away. Shen Mocong responded with a nod, adjusted the purple agate glasses on the bridge of her nose, and gazed thoughtfully at his back.

  This man, she can't see through him.
