Chapter 47: The Wife Was Lured Away by a Meal of Meat, What to Do?

Ye Zhengguo was completely lost, the stench was so disgusting that he didn’t have the courage to go in again, he could only yell at the door.

Wang Laowu was scolded for a long time before he understood.

“So you were burned on the butt by your daughter with a poker, and you came to find trouble with me? You’re really shameless, I’m like this, I haven’t gone out for days, where would I go to incite your daughter?”

“It’s because of what you said, otherwise she wouldn’t have thought of using a red-hot poker to hit people. I’m telling you, Wang Laowu, if you don’t pay, I’ll sue you.”

Wang Laowu was in pain all day, he was grimacing, he was annoyed when he heard that Ye Zhengguo was burned on the butt with a poker, he was happy, he made fun of him and provoked him like a dead pig that wasn’t afraid of boiling water, “Go ahead, go sue, if you don’t sue, you’re my grandson.”

Wang Da Kun said anxiously, “Dad, say less, be careful that they really sue you.”

Wang Laowu’s face changed, “You wimp, everyone is scolding you at the door and you’re still telling your old man to say less. If you had any guts, they would be scolding your old man, you should have kicked them out.”

“Dad…”

“Shut up, I, Wang Laowu, am wise, how could I have a spineless son like you?”

After scolding his son, he yelled outside, “Go sue, go ahead, they’ll take care of your food and lodging and treat your injuries, I’m worried that no one will take care of me.”

They had experienced Wang Laowu’s shamelessness, they scolded him outside for a while, and finally they had to let it go.

Grandma Liu finished eating all the gossip, she went to Xie’s house and told Lin Xinghua and his family what happened.

Lin Xinghua finally breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.

“So the injuries aren’t serious, just a burn?”

“Yes, it’s not serious, it’ll be fine after applying some medicine for a few days. But it’s on the butt, it’ll be painful.”

With that, she smiled and looked at Ye Xiaozhen and asked, “Xiaozhen, who taught you to burn people with tongs?”

“Wang Laowu.”

Grandma Liu laughed, her eyes narrowed into a slit, “Oh, you’re so good, you got that right. Remember, if anyone asks, just say it was Wang Laowu who incited you, don’t say it was Grandma Liu.”

“Xiaozhen remembers.”

“Oh, this child is so obedient, she’s even more lovable than those who aren’t stupid. Ye Zhengguo and Sun Qing, those two bastards, how can they bear to abuse such a good and obedient child?”

…

Lin Xinghua called the three of them together and told them not to say anything when Xie Lin’an came back at night, lest Xie Lin’an hear it and get into trouble.

Xie Linli and Xie Linqi both nodded in agreement.

Ye Xiaozhen thought that they hadn’t suffered any losses, so she agreed too.

But the premise was that Xie Lin’an didn’t ask.

Xie Lin’an came back at night, he saw the scar on Xie Linli’s forehead when he was eating.

“Linli, did you get into a fight with someone?”

Hearing him ask, the whole family became nervous.

Xie Linli’s eyes darted around, “No, I accidentally scratched it.”

“Scratched it?” Xie Lin’an said calmly, “Did you scratch someone’s fingernail?”

Everyone: “…”

“It’s not a fingernail, it’s a tree branch.”

“Heh.” Xie Lin’an put down his chopsticks, “Do you think I’m stupid?”

Xie Linli: “…”

“You better tell the truth, don’t let me find out.”

Xie Linli cowered, he wanted to say something.

But he was glared at by Lin Xinghua.

“It’s a tree branch.”

Xie Lin’an rolled his eyes at him, then turned to Ye Xiaozhen, “Xiaozhen, tell brother, who scratched his forehead?”

Seeing Grandpa’s pleading eyes, she… she still told him.

Because she felt that it was such a big deal, it couldn’t be hidden, Xie Lin’an would find out if he went to the village and asked.

“Stepmother scratched it.”

“Hen… stepmother? Sun Qing?”

Ye Xiaozhen nodded.

Lin Xinghua sighed, rubbing his temples.

Xie Lin’an saw his expression and felt a little helpless, “Grandpa, there are so many mouths in the whole village, can you really hide it if you want to? Don’t corrupt them.”

This blocked Lin Xinghua’s words.

Xie Lin’an looked like he was going to go to Ye’s house to settle the score, Ye Xiaozhen pulled him and said, “We didn’t suffer any losses, Xiaozhen used a red-hot poker to burn their butts.”

Xie Lin’an: “Hmm?”

He looked at Xie Linli, “What happened?”

Xie Linli recounted the whole story.

Xie Lin’an laughed, he patted Ye Xiaozhen’s shoulder and said, “Good, we didn’t suffer any losses. But…”

He looked at Ye Xiaozhen with deep eyes, “Xiaozhen, why did you suddenly go to Ye’s house?”

Being stared at by him, Ye Xiaozhen felt a little nervous, she felt like he was going to see through her.

She directly sold out Grandma Liu.

“Grandma Liu said there was delicious food.”

Xie Lin’an: “…”

Xie Linli said, “Yes, Grandma Liu took Sister-in-law there, they really had delicious food, they made a big pot of beef, and there was milk candy.”

Xie Linli started to praise how delicious the beef was and how delicious the milk candy was.

Xie Lin’an felt a mixture of emotions.

Xiaozhen doesn’t understand, a meal of beef and a few pieces of milk candy lured her away, what’s going on?

Wouldn’t she run away with someone else for a few bites to eat?

Thinking about this, Xie Lin’an felt uneasy.

He hugged her extra hard that night, and he also promised her a lot of things.

“The work is almost finished, just the money hasn’t been settled yet. When I get the money, we’ll have a wedding banquet, eight dishes and eight bowls, we’ll have a grand celebration.”

“I’ll buy you a watch, can Xiaozhen tell time?”

“It’s okay if she can’t, I’ll teach you.”

“I saw people on TV wearing wedding dresses, does Xiaozhen want to wear a wedding dress? We’ll buy… rent a wedding dress.”

“We’ll also take wedding photos.”

“We’ll buy a pair of those high heels, red ones.”

“Huh, why doesn’t Xiaozhen have ear piercings? Let’s go get your ears pierced, I’ll buy you gold earrings…”

Ye Xiaozhen was really speechless.

He had learned the tricks of a rich contractor to coax women perfectly.

No, it’s not learning, he must have been one of the first rich contractors in the 1980s who made money.

He probably thinks he’s rich and cool now, but he doesn’t know that people in the future would laugh themselves to death if they saw him like this.

So greasy.

Embarrassing enough to make you want to scratch your feet.

If it wasn’t for his face, that oil could fry a dish.
