Chapter 393: Chapter 396 I am under the control of my wife_1
"I think most people who lead ordinary lives aren’t too bad," Chao Lian said weakly.
She was a child harmed by a stepmother and felt that children with their birth mothers were very fortunate. Moreover, hadn’t Bao’s already apologized?
Maybe it would be best to spare her this time, and perhaps the family could then be complete again.
After all, it was none of their business, so Qiao Duo’er and Chen Yiling said no more.
They only hoped that after being beaten, Bao’s would be more honest.
At lunchtime, Bao’s came out to eat, but Huang Zhong, stubbornly holding a grudge, didn’t bring her any food. Starving her for a meal was a form of punishment, I guess.
Today’s events had caused the Huang Family to lose face both privately and publicly, and their hearts were thoroughly wounded. From now on, he definitely wouldn’t treat Bao’s the same as before.
Fortunately, both sons had inherited Huang Zhong’s disposition. They might not be the brightest, but they were honest children.
Uncle Huang and Aunt Huang each held a well-behaved grandchild, which brightened their moods substantially.
After lunch, Aunt Huang personally saw the guests out.
She apologized repeatedly, "It’s all my fault. The meal wasn’t great, and it upset you all."
Chen Yiling waved her hand, "It doesn’t matter, Auntie. Don’t be too sad. We genuinely like you, and if you’re ever treated unfairly, just let us know. We’ll help you vent!"
"Holding things in can make you sick. I might not be able to do much to help, but talking about it can at least make you feel better," she added.
Chao Lian was a bit worried because Aunt Huang seemed very haggard. 𝒏𝙤𝙫𝒑𝙪𝙗.𝙘𝒐𝙢
Aunt Huang nodded, "Thank you."
Ah, it was a pity that when Huang Zhong insisted on marrying Bao’s, she hadn’t stood firm against it. Otherwise, things wouldn’t have come to this.
If her daughter-in-law were even half as considerate as these children, she’d wake up laughing from her sleep.
After saying goodbye to Aunt Huang, they went to visit Qiao Duo’er’s new home.
Everyone except Sun Erhu hadn’t really looked around Qiao Duo’er’s place yet, so this was a good opportunity for a tour, and they also had to discuss the face mask powder business.
Upon entering the yard, Sun Erhu was startled; the courtyard had undergone a huge transformation!
"Brother Hong, you haven’t just locked yourself up in the yard to fuss over this plot of land, have you?"
He wasn’t well-read, but he knew the saying that a spring night is worth a thousand gold pieces.
And here was Tan Zhenghong, meddling with the vegetable garden right after getting married—what a waste!
Qiao Duo’er raised an eyebrow, "Chao Lian, Erhu has only that one thing on his mind. Think it over carefully before deciding to marry him."
It seemed marrying Sun Erhu would be even more miserable...
Chao Lian’s face turned red in an instant. She... she hadn’t said she wanted to marry Sun Erhu, had she?
"Sister-in-law, I’m just concerned about your well-being, okay? Don’t you discredit me!" Sun Erhu was on edge.
Qiao Duo’er blinked innocently, "I discredited you? No way, unless there’s something else on your mind? Let’s hear it."
Sun Erhu took a deep breath, "Brother Hong, won’t you put in a word for me with your wife?"
"In my house, she’s the one who’s in charge of me."
Tan Zhenghong tossed out the remark lightly, succeeding in making Sun Erhu so angry he was practically steaming.
Sun Erhu secretly vowed never to interfere with their affairs again to avoid self-induced frustration. It was just a marriage, wasn’t it?
He would get married too!
He would let his wife boss him around!
After getting married, he certainly wouldn’t concern himself with a vegetable garden. Instead, he’d spend sweet days with his wife and then create a bunch of little ones!
Seeing his near-breakdown, the others couldn’t help but laugh without any pretense.
There was no denying that Sun Erhu was a huge source of amusement; wherever he went, laughter was sure to follow.
Sun Erhu was sulky for a while but then pushed the matter to the back of his mind.
