General, Your Wife Is Requesting Your Return Home For Farming

199 Drunk

Wei Ting returned from the field at almost dark. It had been an hour since Su Yuan left, and the news of the Su family stealing Su Cheng’s jade pendant had also spread.

The villagers gathered at the entrance of the village in twos and threes or at their own entrance. The atmosphere was incomparably intense. Those who did not know would think that something big had happened in the village.

In fact, it was indeed a big deal.

An old man with a white beard sighed. “Sigh, the heavens are good. No wonder he keeps coming to extort us. Don’t we owe him?”

Back then, Su Cheng’s jade pendant was used to exchange for those grains. The villagers owed Su Cheng a favor.

Had Su Cheng really extorted a lot over the years? No.

He had only extorted a few copper coins. How much food had they eaten back then?

At the mention of food, another infuriating thing happened.

“I asked Yuniang just now. The Su family sold it for a thousand taels back then! They spent less than a hundred taels to buy food for us! They have a lot of money in their hands, but they pretended to eat chaff and swallow vegetables in front of the villagers every day. They looked like they were about to run out of food! Who were they doing it for!”

“Exactly!”

“If they didn’t do this, how can the village give them the land?”

“I was really blind back then! I didn’t expect them to be such shameless things!”

“Speaking of which, why does Su Cheng have such a valuable jade pendant?”

“He wandered to Willow Village… Could it be that he’s actually a child of a rich family?”

“Come on, Auntie Wu. Which kid from a rich family isn’t pampered? Su Cheng was a cowherd. He was just lucky. He probably picked it up from somewhere!”

“It’s also his! It’s wrong for the Su family to steal his jade pendant!”

Wei Ting had heard most of it along the way.

His expression was still very cold. He frowned, looking icier than usual.

When he entered the house, the three little ones were sitting on the threshold, holding the milk bottle with both hands and drinking milk.

Behind the three of them was the central room with a few oil lamps.

Su Ergou set up the tables and chairs and prepared to eat.

His gaze passed through the central room and saw Su Cheng chopping firewood in the backyard.

After that, he saw Su Xiaoxiao busying herself in the kitchen.

A phrase flashed through his mind: disengagement from worldly affairs.

In the village, the villagers were all cursing, but no one here mentioned this matter.

Everyone buried their heads in their food and did not let Su Xiaoxiao down.

The world was huge, and food was the most important!

Su Xiaoxiao made Tomahawk pork belly tonight. Every rib was full of meat, fat, and thin. It was wrapped in red-hot sauce. After taking a bite, the salty, sweet, and fragrant sauce exploded in her mouth with fresh gravy. She was simply heaven.

The three little ones also got three small pieces. They grabbed them and chewed until their mouths were oily.

Wei Ting’s taste was light and he had never eaten anything too greasy.

Su Xiaoxiao left him the thinnest piece.

He shaved off the thin layer of fat on it.

Then, he placed the remaining lean meat back into Su Xiaoxiao’s bowl.

Su Xiaoxiao looked at him strangely.

Wei Ting ate the fatty meat in his bowl with a cold expression.

Su Xiaoxiao thought for a moment and stood up to give him a piece of pure fat.

Wei Ting was speechless.

After dinner, Su Xiaoxiao went to tidy up the kitchen and prepare the ingredients she needed to make snacks tomorrow morning.

Su Yuniang walked in with a pot of wine. “You really can’t stay idle.”

Su Xiaoxiao sniffed. “Wine?”

Su Yuniang waved the wine pot in her hand. “There.”

Su Xiaoxiao had a serious expression. “Su Yuniang, are you not nursing the child anymore?”

Su Yuniang smiled charmingly and found a stool to sit on. “I’ve made an agreement with Sister Zhao. She’ll help feed her for a few days.”

Su Yuniang was really capable. Back then, she had made the Li family hate the entire Su family by snatching the midwife. Now, she had taken the gold to smoothen her relationship with the Li family, leaving the rest of the Su family to be hated by the Li family.

Su Xiaoxiao said, “You really leave everything to others.”

Su Yuniang snorted. “I can’t compare to you. Ever since you have Little Wu, I think you’re getting freer and freer.”

Su Xiaoxiao chuckled. “Who said I couldn’t stay idle just now?”

Su Yuniang mumbled, “Damn, I drank too much. My brain is mush!”

Su Yuniang gulped down a few more mouthfuls. “Daya, do you have any plans for the future?”

Su Xiaoxiao glanced at her. “Why are you suddenly asking about this?”

Su Yuniang said, “I was just asking.”

Su Xiaoxiao thought about it seriously. “Earn money and let my father and brother live a good life. Let Su Ji flourish and let Ergou sell pancakes happily every day.”

There were also the three children; she wanted to let them live a life where they no longer had to hide.

If possible, she wanted to walk around and see Great Zhou’s lovely landscape.

...

In her previous life, other than studying, she was only working. She had spent her short life in school and the army and had no chance to go out and see the exciting world outside.

In this life, she wanted to live a different life.

“What about you? What are your plans?” she asked Su Yuniang.

She did not have many friends in her previous life. Firstly, she was not used to interacting with others. Secondly… she only realized now that there might be something wrong with her personality in her previous life.

However, perhaps because she had died once, or perhaps because she had fused with this body’s memories and instincts, her personality had changed slightly from what she had in her previous life.

The obvious result was that she had friends.

“Me.” Su Yuniang took a sip of wine and was a little drunk. “I want to leave this place with my girl, go somewhere no one knows, and start over.”

“Have you thought of where to go?” Su Xiaoxiao asked.

Su Yuniang shook her head.

She glanced at Su Xiaoxiao. “You’ve really lost a lot of weight… Do you want a sip? Why? You don’t dare to drink? You’re a little bully from Apricot Flower Village, but you don’t even dare to drink? You have to live up to your reputation!”

Did this little rich woman use provocation?

...

Wasn’t it just a mouthful of wine?

Was there a need?

In her previous life, she could hold her liquor very well. No one in the army could outdrink her. In private, she had a title—it was something about not getting drunk after a thousand glasses!

However, Su Xiaoxiao had forgotten about the weak instincts of this body.

One sip, two sips…

Duang!

She collapsed!

Su Yuniang was speechless.

Su Yuniang was half awake from the shock!

This girl… Did she collapse?

Su Yuniang quickly squatted down to check her breathing. “Daya! Daya!”

Su Xiaoxiao said vaguely, “Yuniang, let me tell you a secret… Wei Ting and I… are a fake couple…”

As soon as she finished speaking, Wei Ting walked over.

He bent down and picked up a certain drunk little fat peacock; his movements were natural and skilled.

Su Xiaoxiao also hugged his neck and buried her head in his chest, looking for a comfortable position.

Perhaps it was too uncomfortable to drink, she frowned in frustration.

Wei Ting lowered his head and gently pressed his exquisite chin against her slightly hot forehead.

A casual action revealed silent comfort.

Su Xiaoxiao really fell asleep in his arms.

Su Yuniang said incredulously,” You call this a fake couple? I don’t believe you!”

“I’ll bring Daya back to the house first.”

After Wei Ting greeted Su Yuniang, he carried a certain drunk little girl back to the east room.

Su Yuniang watched the two of them leave with a trace of envy in her eyes.

She would probably never meet a man who was sincere to her in her life.

“Woman.”

Yuchi Xiu appeared behind her like a ghost and said sinisterly, “Give me back my underpants.”
