General, Your Wife Is Requesting Your Return Home For Farming Chapter 39: Son-in-law

Chapter 39: Son-in-law

Su Xiaoxiao didn't recognize him at first glance and only felt that he looked familiar. She didn't take it to heart and brushed past him with the sleepy Su Ergou.

The other party probably didn't expect to be ignored by the siblings. He frowned and said, "Su Daya! Su Ergou!"

Eh?

Did they really know each other?

Su Xiaoxiao stopped and turned to look at him. "Who are you?"

Su Ergou rubbed his eyes and froze. "Cousin?"

Father Su was an orphan and had no sisters. The only person who could be called Eldest Cousin was the scholar from the Chen family.

What was he called again?

Hao? Yuan?

It was no wonder that Su Xiaoxiao couldn't remember. It was because the Host didn't have much interaction with her eldest cousin. Even if they met occasionally, her eldest cousin rarely spoke to her.

Chen Haoyuan looked at the two of them unhappily. "Why are you here?"

Su Ergou opened his mouth, but before he could speak, Chen Haoyuan's gaze landed on Su Xiaoxiao's face with undisguised disdain and hostility.

"Did you come for me?" he asked.

What was this person talking about?

Su Xiaoxiao looked at Su Ergou in confusion, indicating that she did not understand what this cousin was doing.

"Do I know him well?" she whispered.

Su Ergou covered his mouth with his hand and lowered his voice. "You used to like Eldest Cousin. Have you forgotten? You even gave him a purse, but Eldest Cousin didn't want it."

"Isn't He Tongsheng the one I like?"

"He Tongsheng came later."

Su Xiaoxiao was speechless.

The siblings whispered, and Chen Haoyuan frowned even more.

Su Xiaoxiao secretly clenched her fists. How many had the Host taken a fancy to? And these memories were scattered. It was really inconvenient.

Chen Haoyuan said coldly, "I heard about you and He Tongsheng."

There was a hidden meaning in his words. Su Xiaoxiao looked at him strangely for a long time before finally understanding what he was insinuating.

He thought that she could not marry He Tongsheng, so she came to provoke him again.

Wait a minute, didn't Chen Feng and Madam Huang tell him that she had a handsome husband like Wei Ting?

Even though Chen Hao was a scholar and had delicate features, he was still not on par with Wei Ting, alright?

Su Xiaoxiao looked at the bag in his hand and understood.

Chen Haoyuan lived in the academy and only had a day off. He had a day off today and didn't know that Chen Feng and his wife had gone to the Su family to cause trouble.

Su Xiaoxiao chuckled. "Who said I was here for you?"

Were all the ancient scholars so n.o.ble? He Tongsheng and Chen Haoyuan were the same. Both of them wished they could raise their noses to the sky!

Chen Haoyuan said arrogantly, "You better not be! Also, the academy is not a place for people like you. Plant your land in the countryside and don't come out to embarra.s.s yourself!"

"What kind of people are we?" Su Ergou was unhappy.

Ever since Su Xiaoxiao fell out with the Chen family, he didn't seem to be as afraid of them as before.

"You know very well what kind of person I am." Chen Haoyuan dusted his spotless sleeves.

The meaning was obvious—they were two rogue bullies with muddy legs dirtying the holy land of scholars!

"That's all I have to say. Take care!"

With that, Chen Haoyuan flicked his sleeve and left.

Su Ergou looked at his back and scratched his head. "Sister, why do I suddenly want to beat him up?"

Su Xiaoxiao asked, "Then why don't you go and beat him up?"

Su Ergou said timidly, "… I don't dare to."

He had told his father about the last time his uncle and aunt came to his house. His father did not say a word after hearing it and only silently returned to the house.

He could not judge his father's att.i.tude towards the Chen family.

"Let's go," Su Xiaoxiao said.

"Sister, aren't you angry?" Su Ergou quickly followed.

Su Xiaoxiao said casually, "What's there to be angry about? Are we the kind of people he says we are? You're still young. You'll meet many such people in the future. You won't be able to settle all of them. Unless he moved your cheese, don't waste your time."

What cheese?

Su Ergou scratched his head. "Sister, are you going to make new snacks? Are you going to make Ergou biscuits?"

Su Xiaoxiao was speechless.

Su Xiaoxiao ignored him, but Su Ergou continued the original topic. "Sister, when you first took a fancy to He Tongsheng, I knew that it was because He Tongsheng was also a scholar. In your heart… you still miss Cousin."

Su Xiaoxiao said, "I don't care what he thinks of me anymore."

She only cared about money, money, and more money!

Su Ergou nodded seriously. "That's true. You have brother-in-law now! His looks are much better than theirs!"

Su Xiaoxiao, who was calm even after being labeled by Chen Haoyuan, clenched her fists tightly with a dark expression!

Why was it that guy again?

So angry!

Wei Ting was pulled by Father Su to learn farming from the Qian family again today.

His st.i.tches had been removed, but he still couldn't use too much strength. The main force was still Father Su.

Looking at the vegetable field that had been ruined again, Madam Qian was so angry that she clenched her fists and trembled!

Father Su touched his nose resentfully. "You asked me to pluck it…"

Madam Qian gritted his teeth. "Is that plucking? You've uprooted it!"

Father Su muttered, "You said I could pull it out…"

"You can pluck the onions! Who asked you to pluck the garlic seedlings?!"

Madam Qian was so angry that her heart ached!

Heavens, let this guy extort her! Don't let him learn farming from her!

Extortion would only cost her a few copper coins but he is effectively destroying half an acre of her farmland!

"You do it!"

Madam Qian said to Wei Ting in exasperation.

Wei Ting sighed and limped over with his walking stick.

There were even more villagers watching today than yesterday. Even those from the neighboring village had come. They came to see Tyrant Su's son-in-law.

"Aunt Qian, have some water first." Wei Ting gave her a bowl of water from Madam Qian's basket.

Qian took the bowl and took a sip, feeling a little better.

She pointed at the green plants on the ground and asked Wei Ting, "What are these? Do you still recognize them?"

"Big onions, garlic sprouts, leeks, spring onions, radish, and lettuce." Wei Ting reported from left to right.

"Yes." Madam Qian was very satisfied.

She glared at Su Cheng and said, "Young people are still the smartest. You learned it immediately! Unlike some people, who can't differentiate between green onions and garlic sprouts after a hundred times!"

Evil Tyrant Su made a fool of himself again! The villagers were really going to die laughing!

Su Cheng's eyes darted around as he quickly changed the positions of the vegetables.

He raised his eyebrows and looked at Wei Ting. "Can you still recognize them?"

Wei Ting was speechless.

He was a good son-in-law. Why was there a need to fight?
