Chapter 750: Chapter 755 Honor Lost_1
Tan Zhenghong grinned apologetically, "Then I’ll go buy some food to fill your stomachs, when you’re full, you won’t feel cold anymore."
Still, they wore an expression of scorn, and what’s more, they completely ignored him.
Now Tan Zhenghong completely understood that these two were deliberately making things difficult for him.
If servants dared to treat a guest like this, it must be because they were specifically instructed by their master. It didn’t take a genius to figure out this was Chen Yiling’s masterpiece—she was taking revenge for Duo’er.
As for Ruo Lan’s case, they always adopted a cold treatment approach.
Though it allowed them to watch from the sidelines, it was indeed a helpless move.
Thankfully, it was just a rumor spread by Ruo Lan herself; if it were true, Chen Yiling would have sent Qin Longyun to chop off his head.
However, having such a caring friend for his wife was a good thing; it made standing at the door for half a day worth it.
As evening approached, Chen Yiling and Qiao Duo’er came back leisurely.
Today, they had gone out to the suburbs to relax. The early spring scenery was beautiful, like a poem or a painting no matter where they went.
The two had a great time, and at noon they even bought a chicken from a farmhouse. Qiao Duo made a beggar’s chicken, and with the pastries they brought from home, that was lunch sorted.
Getting down from the carriage, Qiao Duo’er saw Tan Zhenghong at first glance.
His expression was like that of a parched man seeing water.
"Didn’t I send someone to tell you to go home first?" Qiao Duo’er was baffled.
Tan Zhenghong said sheepishly, "I came back to pick you up, afraid you wouldn’t be safe."
"You’re preparing to marry again, what do you want Duo’er for?" Chen Yiling pulled Qiao Duo’er behind her.
She was infuriated upon learning about this matter, wishing she could kill that shameless woman.
However, Qiao Duo insisted on keeping their cool, saying the real show was yet to come.
Unable to deal with Ruo Lan, she could only make things difficult for Tan Zhenghong.
Tan Zhenghong stated firmly, "I only have one wife, and my wife’s name is Qiao Duo’er."
Chen Yiling was somewhat satisfied with Tan Zhenghong’s performance and said, "This time I’ll let you take Duo’er back, but if there is a next time, I’ll let Qin Longyun marry her as a concubine."
Hmph, she wanted to show Tan Zhenghong that Duo’er’s maternal family might not be influential, but they were not to be trifled with!
Tan Zhenghong muttered that it was hard to deal with women and petty men, and pregnant women were even more unreasonable.
It seemed he would have to be more careful with Chen Yiling in the future.
"What did you just say?" Qin Longyun asked with a darkened face.
Such foolish words could only come from Chen Yiling—it was utter madness!
Chen Yiling stuck out her tongue, "I didn’t say anything just now, you must have heard wrong. Duo’er, you should hurry back, and be careful on the road."
In a critical moment, she decisively abandoned propriety.
Qiao Duo’er and Tan Zhenghong held back their laughter as they got on the carriage, and before long, she grabbed Tan Zhenghong’s ear.
Some men were becoming increasingly arrogant and needed to be put in their place!
"Wife, if I did something wrong, just tell me, don’t pull my ear," Tan Zhenghong quickly pleaded for mercy.
Qiao Duo’er said displeased, "You actually lied to me, you’ve really disappointed me!"
Many people involuntarily glance to the left when they lie, and just now Tan Zhenghong made the same small movement.
So Tan Zhenghong must have been waiting at the door all afternoon.
"I was wrong, wasn’t I afraid Yi Ling wouldn’t be able to step down?" Tan Zhenghong hurriedly admitted his mistake.
Qiao Duo’er let go of Tan Zhenghong’s ear but grew even angrier, "Now you’re guessing what other women are thinking, does that mean you have some ideas of your own?"
Did Tan Zhenghong aspire to be a women’s confidant?
