Chapter 224: Chapter 226 _1
Tan Zhenghong felt very wronged; one wife was more than enough for him.
But who knew what got into Xiao Biyu’s head, insisting on clinging to him.
Xiao Biyu was an unhappy topic, so after griping about it for a bit, the couple started planning for the next day.
After dinner, Qiao Duo’er began to count the silver coins with the money box in her arms.
Tan Zhenghong boiled water, first brewing ginger and date tea, then brought the water back to the room and mixed it with some cold water, before saying, "Wife, come take a bath!"
Ever since his leg healed, he had taken over all such tasks, and his wife was merely in charge of looking as lovely as a flower.
Qiao Duo’er shook her head, "You go ahead; I’ll be done counting in just a bit."
Tan Zhenghong knew his wife treasured money, after all, they’d been saving up for days and it would be gone tomorrow in one swoop; anyone would hate to part with it.
While bathing, he thought about finding time to go hunting in the deep mountains, reasoning if he could hunt down a tiger or Bear Blind Man, his wife wouldn’t fret over thirty taels.
He was a man, and had to ensure his beloved lived well.
But he wouldn’t talk about these things; he would just strive to achieve them.
By the time Tan Zhenghong finished bathing, Qiao Duo’er had already put away the money box, and the slight gloom from earlier had vanished.
To spend thirty taels on a piece of land of their own, and later build their own house on it, without all sorts of messy people hopping around in front of them.
How carefree would that be?
It didn’t matter how much silver was spent, as long as it brought happiness.
Tan Zhenghong dumped the bathwater while Qiao Duo’er had already brought back more water for the bath.
"Wife, from now on you’re not allowed to do heavy work," said Tan Zhenghong earnestly. 𝚗ov𝚙𝚞𝚋.c𝚘m
Qiao Duo’er rolled her eyes at Tan Zhenghong, "I’m not made of paper."
Still, the feeling of being treasured by someone else was quite nice, hmm... being a man’s woman truly was bliss.
Tan Zhenghong didn’t dwell on this topic either; in the future, he’d just do all the tasks, leaving Qiao Duo’er with nothing to do even if she wanted to, right?
