53: Chapter 53: I am Wronged_1 53: Chapter 53: I am Wronged_1 Yang Baichuan couldnât help but widen his eyes, âTen taels?â
Feng Caie nodded, her heart bursting with joy.
Selling Xun Hui would be the best.
To be honest, she was jealous of Xun Hui from the start.
Who had told her to be so beautiful?
Donât think she hadnât noticed, her own husband was always willing to take a peek.
Just wait until she was sold into the mountains to wait on five or six men, then weâd see how flirty you could be?
Just thinking about it made her happyâŠ
âBut thereâs Bossâs wife and XiaofengâŠâ Yang Baichuan suddenly shook his head.
âHmph,â Feng Caie suddenly snorted coldly, âIs it for Xiaofeng or canât you bear to part with her?â
âWhat are you talking about?â Yang Baichuanâs face immediately darkened, âI am a scholar, this is beneath my dignityâŠâ
âPah,â Feng Caie sneered, âDonât think I donât know.
Youâve been coveting that vixen for a long time, havenât you?
Last time you spied on her going to the outhouse, did you like the sight of that big white behind?
If it werenât for me stepping in to save you, you would have lost all face as a younger brother-in-lawâŠâ
âWhat nonsense are you talking about?â Yang Baichuan growled back, slightly enraged and embarrassed, âBelieve it or not, I will slap you?â
âCome on,â but Feng Caie glared back, stood up, and brought her face close to him, pointing at her cheek, âSlap right hereâŠâ
âYouâŠâ Yang Baichuan raised his hand but couldnât bring himself to let it fall.
After all, he was still relying on the Yue Family.
He then sighed, âHavenât I told you?
It was all a misunderstandingâŠâ
Forget it!
Feng Caie rolled her eyes scornfully and then sat down on the bed, âWhat misunderstanding?
Why donât you explain it then?â
âI originally planned to keep this to myself, but with you pressing me, I have no choice but to tell you.
However, you canât tell anyone elseâŠâ Yang Baichuan looked at Feng Caie seriously.
âMy lips are sealed.
Just spill it.
If you canât explain yourself clearly, donât blame me for being harshâŠâ
âActually, that time it was the fourth brotherâŠâ Yang Baichuan lowered his voice.
âWhat?â Feng Caieâs voice suddenly rose.
âWhat are you shouting for?â Yang Baichuan quickly covered his wifeâs mouth, âAre you trying to let everyone know whatâs going on?â
Feng Caie nodded quickly, but a blazing Eight Trigrams Fire had already lit up in her eyes as she pulled down Yang Baichuanâs hand, âYou meanâŠâ she said, motioning toward the adjacent room, the direction of the fourth brotherâs place.
âYou know what the fourth brother is like, his favorite thing is to pry into othersâ business and hassling widows.â Yang Baichuan sighed, looking genuinely upset, âWith our big brother gone, Iâm going to be the Boss of the family.
If my brother acts out, I canât just ignore it, can I?â
âNo wonder every time the fourth brother sees someone with the surname Xun, he shoves his way forward,â Feng Caie obviously missed Yang Baichuanâs latter words, entirely focused on the idea of Yang No.4 eyeing Xun Hui, âPoor the wife of No.4, still feeling sorry for that widow and orphan.
Now, just wait until she finds out, I guessâŠâ Suddenly, she frowned, âWait, that time I didnât see the fourth brother, I only saw youâŠâ
âOh man, Iâm wronged,â Yang Baichuan slapped his thigh, âAt that time, No.4 was peeping, and I went over to tell her.
When he heard someone coming, he ran off, and I was left holding the bag.â He paused, âLater on, No.4 admitted his mistake to me.
Iâm telling you this, you must not go around spreading rumors, otherwise, No.4 will get angry with me.
Besides, this isnât exactly an honorable thing that would reflect well on our family, especially on our Light.
Moreover, if it werenât for his help with the fields at your place today, I couldnât have managed them.â
