Chapter 491: Chapter 494 Have you slept?_1
He always remembered that when Brother Hong was kidnapped by the people of Xuan Eagle Mountain Village, his sister-in-law was like a deadly force, swift as lightning, and he seemed easy to dispose of.
But it wasn’t entirely his fault, the main culprit was Brother Hong.
Well...he could understand taking care of business during broad daylight, but could they at least lock the courtyard door?
It was utterly embarrassing!
He was still a very pure person, having kissed Chao Lian only once.
Sun Erhu hurried along and accidentally kicked the doorframe, immediately grabbing his foot and hopping up in pain.
"Damned bad luck..."
Sun Erhu had only started to complain when he quickly shut his mouth.
Before he could sneak away, Tan Zhenghong had already emerged.
As their eyes met, Sun Erhu suddenly felt that he was the one too ashamed to face anyone.
Touching his nose awkwardly, Sun Erhu said, "Brother Hong, I...I thought you weren’t home. I didn’t hear anything."
After speaking, he wanted to kick himself. Wasn’t this just admitting guilt?
"Your sister-in-law was tired yesterday. I was just massaging her," Tan Zhenghong said frankly.
Sun Erhu was shocked. They must have been quite busy with love-making the day before.
Otherwise, why would she be tired in the morning? To the point of needing a massage? His Brother Hong was really something!
Tan Zhenghong smacked the back of Sun Erhu’s head, "What are you thinking? Yesterday we went to dig bamboo shoots. Your sister-in-law is not used to working the fields. She was all sore, and I was just massaging her. Did you come here for something?"
With that reminder, Sun Erhu suddenly remembered the important business.
"Your home... I mean, where you used to live, they’re about to divide up the property. They’re nearly fighting over your room. Uncle Tie sent me to call you, saying the sooner you sort out the room, the sooner you can live in peace."
Tan Zhenghong went into the house to speak briefly to Qiao Duo’er, then left with Sun Erhu.
Qiao Duo’er quickly got out of bed and headed to the old house too.
She didn’t care about the thatched cottage. She was willing to give it away to anyone.
But if it was to be given away, it should be done gracefully, and at the same time, she had to secure the greatest benefit for herself.
It would also prevent those who were envious of the wealthy from gossiping behind their backs, saying they were rich and heartless, ignoring their poor brothers and such.
On the way there, Sun Erhu updated Tan Zhenghong on the situation.
The trouble started when Third Brother Tan wanted to take over Brother Hong’s straw hut, claiming his original house was too small now that he had a son.
Little Wang Clan wanted to kick out the old couple and have them live in the straw hut instead.
Using the excuse that Second Brother Tan didn’t take care of their parents, Third Brother Tan roped in Big Brother Tan to propose a redivision of the property, which led to arguments and nearly came to blows.
When Tan Zhenghong arrived at the old house, the Tan Family Members were arguing red-faced and ears steaming.
"You and your wife can’t even do anything at night. Why is it suddenly not good enough to live there?" Little Wang Clan hit Tan Zhongzhong right where it hurt.
After being kicked by Qiao Duo’er that one time, Doctor Wu said he couldn’t consummate his marriage for at least three years.
In fact, he might remain that way for the rest of his life.
If the couple just slept together, what were they afraid the child might see?
Tan Zhongzhong refused to back down: "Have you ever slept with me? How would you know something like whether I’m capable or not?" 𝓃𝓸𝓋𝓅𝓾𝒷.𝒸ℴ𝓂
"Do I need to sleep with you? Your wife complains every day that you’re not a man; how could I not know?"
While soothing Xiao Fu, Li Clan said disdainfully, "You eavesdrop on our private conversations, yet you say we’re the ones who can’t do it? Maybe it’s your man who’s the issue, not daring to let out a peep now!"
Little Wang Clan glared at Tan Zhengyong. Her man was good at bad-mouthing others behind their backs, sprouting flowers with his words, but when it came down to it, he was as silent as a gourd.
If it wasn’t for her ability to speak up, their family wouldn’t have anyone to rely on at all.
