General, Your Wife Is Requesting Your Return Home For Farming

68 Manipulation (1)

“Tiedan!”

Madam Huang called over the child of a relative of the Su family and handed him a piece of red paper. “Here, bring it to the Su family. Tell them that I, as their aunt, gave it to them. Don’t they want to write their own couplets? If they don’t have paper, they won’t be able to write it. Don’t blame me, their aunt, for not being able to afford a piece of paper!”

Was this a question of whether they could afford a piece of paper?

She was really vicious!

She knew that Fatty Su could not write a couplet at all and was just showing off, but she insisted on sending her a piece of paper.

Now, she wouldn’t even have the chance to say, “I want to write, but I don’t have any paper.”

The villagers clicked their tongues in their hearts, but they could not say anything on the surface. They were still waiting to ask Scholar Chen for a couplet!

“Sister, listen to my advice. Forget it,” Madam Fang said.

Madam Huang smiled and said, “I really don’t mean anything else. If she can’t write it, it’s good to do a paper cut of a flower, right?”

At this point, Madam Fang couldn’t persuade her anymore. She could only let Tiedan send the red paper to the Su family.

Unexpectedly, not long after, the ten-year-old Tiedan returned with the red paper. “The fat lass said no. She has it herself.”

Just now, when she said that they could write the couplet themselves, the villagers did not believe her. Now that she said that they had their own red paper, the villagers were even more incredulous.

Madam Huang said, “Sigh, forget it, forget it. I’m an aunt after all. Why should I be angry with a little girl? Hao, write a couplet and send it to Daya.”

She just wanted to see Fatty Su make a fool of herself. Madam Huang was going to fight with Fatty Su to the end this time!

Su Jinniang, who had been silent, suddenly said, “Daya can’t write, but she has a husband.”

Madam Huang mocked, “You mean the one who learned farming from the Li family? He’s just like an embroidered pillow. He looks good but is useless!”

“He can read.” Su Jinniang paused and explained, “I’ve seen him read letters to Daya.”

Madam Huang said disdainfully, “Who knows if he’s reading blindly? If he’s really literate, would he need to learn to farm?”

Madam Zhou, who lived next door to the Su family, echoed, “That’s right. If he has the ability, how can he be Fatty Su’s live-in son-in-law?”

This time, the villagers could not refute.

Although they recognized that Wei Ting was handsome, his merits were only limited to his looks. His ability was definitely inferior to that of Scholar Chen.

Su Jinniang frowned and silently went to her room.

–

At Little Su’s house, the three little ones went to look for Father Su. They wanted to poop.

Su Ergou poured the water from the bucket into the water tank and continued to fetch water from the village entrance.

Su Xiaoxiao knocked on Wei Ting’s door.

“Come in,” Wei Ting said.

Su Xiaoxiao entered with a smile.

Wei Ting was wiping his dagger at the head of the bed.

The dagger was plundered from him when Father Su tied him up and later returned to him.

Su Xiaoxiao looked at the cold blade and instinctively felt a murderous aura.

This dagger was very sharp!

From the beginning, the two of them had been suspicious of each other. Therefore, Wei Ting could not be bothered to pretend to be harmless in front of her.

Wei Ting continued to wipe the dagger. “Why are you here?”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “Don’t worry, I’m not looking for you to smash peanuts.”

It was going to be New Year’s Eve, so she would let him rest for a day!

She came to the bed and handed the hot tea in her left hand to Wei Ting. “Are you thirsty?”

Seeing that Wei Ting did not speak, she handed him a plate of egg yolk pastry in her right hand. “Are you hungry? Does your shoulder ache? Does your waist hurt?”

Hearing this familiar line, Wei Ting did not ask her if she had something to ask of him again. Instead, he hit the nail on the head. “Why? Do you want to use me and throw me away afterward again?”

“You even learned to summarize your experience...”

Su Xiaoxiao muttered.

She smiled and put down the snacks and hot tea. She patted his shoulder like they were good brothers and said, “Look at you. What are you saying?”

Wei Ting said calmly, “Human language.”

Su Xiaoxiao was speechless.

Su Xiaoxiao smiled and said, “I won’t throw you away! I promise I won’t throw you away this time! I haven’t even eaten a handsome husband like you. How can I bear to throw you away!”

Listen, did this sound like what a decent girl would say?

Wei Ting choked on her shameless and explicit words. He gritted his teeth and said, “What nonsense are you thinking about all day!”

Su Xiaoxiao said solemnly, “I won’t allow you to say that about yourself!”

Wei Ting was speechless.

Su Xiaoxiao’s goal was actually very simple. She wanted Wei Ting to write a pair of couplets.

Su Xiaoxiao smiled and said, “It’s almost the new year. It’ll be so festive to paste a pair of couplets!”

Wei Ting said coldly, “I don’t want to write it now. I’ll do it tomorrow.”
