Ugly girl only wants to farm

Chapter 319 The Calm Lake (59)

Seeing Xu Chaoyan's face flushed, Meng Jiuhe smiled slightly, reached out and gently pinched her cheek, then quickly left a feather-light kiss.

When he opened the door and faced his younger sister, his expression was as cold as ice, as if he wanted to devour her. Meng Jiuxia couldn't help but tremble, and she forced herself to speak.

"Big brother, you're here too? I just came to see if my wife has changed her clothes yet. You guys go ahead and do what you need to do, I'll head out now."

After saying that, she pushed the person inside and closed the door: "Sister-in-law, since you have things to do, you can go ahead and do them. There's no need to rush out. I'll call you out when it's time to eat."

Finally, she fearlessly shouted one last time, "Big brother, my little nephew and niece are counting on you next year. You have to work harder! Brother Tie Niu next door has only been married for two or three months and his wife is already pregnant. You can't let yourself be outdone!"

Before she could finish speaking, Meng Jiuhe's furious voice rang out: "Get out!" followed by a sharp crack.

Startled, Meng Jiuxia quickly ran towards the old woman and the others. Zhang Yueniang looked at her with a worried expression.

"What did you say to your older brother and the others this time, you little brat? I could hear your brother getting angry from this far away."

After Meng Jiuxia left, Xu Chaoyan reopened the closet door, casually took out a set of clothes, and closed the closet door absentmindedly. The sudden pain made her face change drastically.

Meng Jiuhe still heard her painful groans and rushed over. He grabbed her swollen hand with a pained expression and gently blew on her fingers.

The cabinet was already quite old and in disrepair, with some small wood shavings on it. My finger was not only red and swollen, but also had a small wood shaving stuck in it.

Meng Jiu gently coaxed, "Wife, just bear with it." Then he gently pulled out the splinter and naturally put his finger in his mouth and sucked on it.

Xu Chaoyan stared blankly at him, when suddenly she felt a tingling sensation spread throughout her body. Startled, she quickly pushed him away.

Then, pretending to hold the clothes and put them directly on the bed, he thought that he had nothing to feel guilty about and that he was the one who should leave, so he pushed the person out the door and said, "You should get out now."

There's a significant difference in strength between men and women, and despite Meng Jiuhe's slender appearance, it was still quite strenuous for her.

Meng Jiuhe frowned: "Your hand is still bleeding, do you want me to help you stop the bleeding? Besides, we're an old married couple, what haven't we seen together? What are you being shy about?"

While he was rambling on and on, Xu Chaoyan simply kicked him out and slammed the door shut with a bang.

"If you hadn't left, your wounds would have healed by now."

Xu Chaoyan raised her hand and glanced at her index finger, then stretched out her thumb and rubbed it incessantly. A strange feeling flashed through her mind and then disappeared in an instant.

Tonight, the courtyard was bustling with activity, with two tables full of delicious food prepared by the elderly women.

Meng Jiu watched enviously as his wife laughed heartily at another table. She didn't even glance at him, instead picking up her wine bowl and gulping it down like water.

Shen Siheng tried to stop him, but it was too late: "Brother, this is the best wine in my family's restaurant. Are you going to guzzle it down like a glutton?"

Qi Yu also raised his bowl and clinked it with his: "Brother Meng, we won't leave until we're drunk tonight. Thank you for reaching out and pulling me out of my confusion."

"Zhang Xuyang, don't try to take it from me. I'll go with them first. Don't push me, it's so annoying. Look over there, there are pretty girls."

Zhang Xuyang cursed, "Idiot."

The old lady patiently fed Ya Ya, serving her food. As the saying goes, three women make a drama. Xu Chaoyan and the others rarely relaxed, and they drank until their faces were flushed.

Jiang Xinyi even complained about how stingy her former mother-in-law was while drinking.

In the end, the two women seemed to be competing with each other, each trying to outdo the other in whose former mother-in-law was stingier.

Xu Chaoyan watched from the sidelines, finding it both funny and exasperating.

Meng Jiuxia stood quietly by her side. Her older brother had just told her not to let her drink too much, or she'd have a hangover tomorrow. She had also gone to the kitchen to make some hangover soup and prepared some hot water.

Finally, Jiang Xinyi, unable to hold her liquor, collapsed onto the table and fell asleep with a thud.

I never expected my older sister to have such a high alcohol tolerance. Although her face was flushed and she looked quite drunk, she still staggered over to Xu Chaoyan with her bowl in hand, shoving her aside.

"Little Xia, let me have a word with you today. Your sister-in-law and I have something to say. I'm telling you, you're a young lady, don't always have such a long face. Why are you so serious? A young lady your age should smile more. Don't be like your older brother, always wearing a long face." As she spoke, she reached out and pulled the corners of her mouth into a smile.

Meng Jiuxia quickly dodged and hurriedly defended herself: "Sister, I didn't have a long face. I was just keeping an eye on you, afraid you'd get drunk, so I prepared some hangover soup for you. You should drink less too."

After saying that, he helped her sit down to the side: "We can talk about it tomorrow. You two are so drunk and staggering, it's getting late. Why don't you sit down first, or should I take Sister Xinyi back to her room and then come back to help you up?"

Zhang Yueniang waved her hand, telling her to leave quickly. She used to think Xia was well-behaved and sensible, but now she seemed to be chattering like a sparrow. Even noisier than Ya Ya usually was.

Children are naturally sleepy. After feeding her, the old woman took her people back to wash up.

Aunt Qi couldn't help but yawn several times. She said she wanted to stay and clean up the mess later, but Qi Yu and the others persuaded her to go back. They told her that the three elderly people were too old and should go home and rest.

Holding a bowl of wine, Zhang Yueniang spoke in a slurred voice: "Sister Xu, I'm so grateful to you these days. You are my savior and my benefactor. I must finish this bowl."

Although Xu Chaoyan was also somewhat drunk, she was much better than the others. She picked up her bowl, poured in some water, gently touched it to her lips, and took a small sip.

Zhang Yueniang rubbed her head and thought for a long time: "Didn't you say you had something to tell me today? Now, tell me and I'm listening, right? Sister, I've seen through everything now. I've had enough of those miserable days. Now, with my parents, brothers, and daughter by my side, I'm content. What did you want to tell me today?"

Xu Chaoyan quickly took the bowl from her and placed it on the table. "Sister, why don't we talk about it tomorrow? You're drunk today."

"What do you mean I'm drunk? Who said I'm drunk? Let me tell you, when I was a young woman, I could hold my liquor better than my father. I know that perfectly well."

Xu Chaoyan sighed, unable to resist her persistent questioning, and finally said, "Sister, we've been in this county for quite a while now. Business has been doing pretty well, but we've recently run into a lot of trouble. It's been quite a headache, and I'm thinking we should move to another place."
