Chapter 281: Chapter 283 Exclusive Territory_1
As Qiao Duo’er lay on Tan Zhenghong’s broad back, she felt a bit dreamy—it was as if she had morphed into the heroine of an idol drama...
Although Tan Zhenghong was no prince, he had given her the best of his affection, and she was content.
Qiao Duo’er assertively said, "You’re not allowed to carry anyone else in the future."
This place was hers now; from here on out, it would be her exclusive territory!
Tan Zhenghong’s hands, supporting Qiao Duo’er’s legs, tightened slightly, "Wife, I am all yours, everywhere!"
Qiao Duo’er nodded in satisfaction, thinking if there was any part of him that wasn’t hers, she would simply chop it off.
She indeed had an illness, one called obsession with cleanliness.
They were almost home, so she struggled to get down from Tan Zhenghong’s back to avoid being teased by the big girl once she saw them.
Upon entering the yard, where the big girl was previously chatting with a member of the Hu’s Clan, she promptly shut her mouth.
Seeing Qiao Duo’er looking at her with ill intent, the big girl had a brain fart, "Why didn’t you two eat a little longer?"
Wasn’t she just outing herself for talking about them eating roasted sweet potatoes?
The big girl then said, "Sister Lan, you just asked me to get the basket, right? I’ll go get it."
"It’s okay; Duo’er won’t do anything to you."
Mrs. Hu said with a smile, Qiao Duo’er might be fierce at times, but it was always for a reason; she was actually very nice to people most of the time.
Qiao Duo’er softly said, "That’s under normal circumstances, but when it’s not, I don’t know what I might do."
"Sister Duo’er, I know I was wrong; please spare me this time!"
The big girl quickly begged for mercy, she was terrified of being tickled, and unfortunately, Qiao Duo’er’s One Finger Martial Art was formidable, so she surrendered before Qiao Duo’er made a move.
Qiao Duo’er raised an eyebrow, "All right then, get to work quickly. If you’re late, you won’t be able to go to your family’s house."
The big girl stopped fooling around, "I’ll get right to work, okay?"
If Qiao Duo’er didn’t go, her parents would nag her again.
There was nothing the big girl feared more than being nagged at.
In the evening, after selling the braised meat, Tan Zhenghong and Qiao Duo’er went home to change clothes before heading to the Tie Family’s house.
The big girl had been urgent, and they had just managed to convince her to let them go home first.
As soon as they arrived at the Tie Family’s doorway, they were greeted by the Tie Niu Couple and the big girl, followed by three young men, her brothers.
The eldest and the second had followed in Tie Niu’s footsteps, both tough men.
The Third Boss, the youngest in the family, was only around eight or nine years old, resembling the Feng Clan in both behavior and appearance and was said to be studying at a private school in town.
"Uncle Tie, Sister-in-law Tie." 𝒏𝒐𝒗𝒑𝒖𝙗.𝒄𝒐𝒎
Qiao Duo’er greeted them while handing over the gifts they had prepared.
"Why are you kids being so formal, bringing gifts just to have a meal!" Mrs. Feng chided.
The Tie Family had invited Tan Zhenghong and his wife to dinner to make up for the big girl causing them trouble, and now that they had brought gifts, the hosts felt even more embarrassed.
"Sister-in-law Tie, this is just a small token from my wife and me, please accept it."
Mrs. Feng took the box, "Then thank you both. But don’t do this again. Come in quickly, you both must be exhausted from all the work today!"
As soon as the big girl arrived home, she had started bustling about cooking. With the help of her daughters-in-law, all the dishes were already prepared.
She gestured for Qiao Duo’er and Tan Zhenghong to take their seats.
The Tie Family had not yet divided the household; the eldest and second sons had already taken wives and had children, resulting in a large number of family members. Therefore, Mrs. Feng simply set up two tables, with men and women sitting separately.
That way, the men could enjoy their drinks, and the women wouldn’t be bothered by the smell of smoke and alcohol. It was better for everyone.
