In the 21st century, Chen Qingqing transmigrated to become cannon fodder in Nanshan Village of the Great Ning Dynasty. In a year of famine and a waning moon, her wicked grandmother, to support her ...
Chapter 261 It’s so ugly
Both Sun and Chen Zhanliang thought that it would be best to grow beets on those acres of land, but their parents-in-law refused to agree.
She thought that if she just said it casually in front of Wu Baoan, her mother-in-law would agree, but she didn't expect that Old Lady Chen would refuse so bluntly, leaving her no face at all.
Sun was nearly devastated. "Mom, those four acres of sandy land on the west mountain can't grow any crops. Planting sugar beets is better than leaving it to waste!"
"It's not your turn to be the head of the Chen family yet. If I say I won't plant, then I won't plant. Don't say anything more."
"If I don't plant, then I don't plant. If I go hungry, it's not just my fault."
Sun wiped away her tears and turned to clean up the leftovers on the table.
Chen Qingqing could understand Sun's painstaking efforts, but she was powerless to do anything. She said nothing, turned around and left the Chen family without looking back.
Wu Baoan couldn't help but sigh when he saw this. "Auntie, Qing Yatou advocated growing beets for the benefit of the villagers. It's at least an extra income. Why are you so against money?"
Old Mrs. Chen curled her lips in disdain and said, "Village head, I don't like what you say. Even if we grow beets, it's the little girl who makes the most money, and we are the ones who suffer the most.
Besides, who in the surrounding villages has ever planted that thing? If not a single seedling sprouts, who will be responsible for it?"
"You're being overly suspicious. Qing has already given me a promise. If the beets don't grow or she doesn't buy them, she'll compensate me with a subsidy of 300 coins per acre. If you don't participate in this good thing, you'll miss it."
"What the hell? You can't even grow anything and you're still paying me!" Old Mrs. Chen was completely stunned. She said with half-belief and half-doubt, "Security, there's no such thing in the world. Are you kidding me?"
Old Man Chen's heart itched after hearing this. He couldn't hold his temper anymore. "Old lady, I think this is a great idea. Those few acres of sandy land in the West Mountain don't grow any crops. Why not plant some sugar beets?"
"Just sit back and do what you want. Why plant beets? This damn girl is just bluffing. You believe her lies."
Old Lady Chen glared at him fiercely, then smiled at Wu Baoan and said,
"Baoan, you know, my son Zhancai is a scholar now, so he will be exempted from taxes in the future. It doesn't matter whether we grow beets or not. I'll wait and see. If the villagers have a good harvest this year, I'll consider growing beets next year."
Wu Baoan shook his head helplessly. He knew that saying more would be useless, so he gave up. "Okay, whatever you want. You guys take good care of Zhancai, and I won't bother you anymore."
After saying that, he lifted his legs and walked away...
Night falls.
The bustling day in Nanshan Village returned to calm.
Old man Chen, who was sitting on the edge of the kang, glanced at Ruhua, who was big and strong, with cow dung on her face, and couldn't help frowning.
Is the third brother blind? Why did he marry such an ugly woman?
Although that aspect is wonderful, it is also too disgusting to look at. No one can bring themselves to do it!
Three-legged frogs are hard to find, but two-legged people are everywhere on the street. Any one you pick is better than this thing.
The more Old Man Chen thought about it, the more upset he felt. He couldn't help but frown, and with the authority of a father, he shouted sternly to Chen Zhancai who was standing beside him,
"Zhancai, you unfilial thing, kneel down right now."
At this time, Chen Zhancai was thinking in his heart that more than an hour had passed and he could wash his face clean if he persisted for a while longer.
Then spend a wonderful night with Ruhua and taste the ecstasy of the deadly 18 squats.
One squat can destroy a person's bones, two squats can destroy a person's soul, and three squats can almost determine the outcome of the world.
After a long period of adjustment, he barely made it through the fourth squat.
Strive to perform exceptionally well today and get through the fifth squat...
Just as she was thinking about it, she was startled awake by the old man Chen's shout. She replied angrily, "Dad, why are you so scared? What happened to me that you have to punish me by making me kneel?"
Sitting on the kang, Old Mrs. Chen couldn't understand why her son would fall in love with such a androgynous thing. Not only was she ugly, but she was also a prostitute. It was so embarrassing.
Without waiting for Old Man Chen to speak, she started scolding him angrily.
"What's wrong? I don't object to you wanting to marry the second wife, but you can't bring back a prostitute. You've brought shame to the Chen family. How can your father and I face people in the future?"
Chen Zhancai was stunned. He thought that if he redeemed Ruhua from Chunfeng Tower, no one would know where she came from.
Who knew that he would go crazy for no apparent reason and tell everything clearly with his own mouth? Now it can't be concealed anymore.
His face, covered in cow dung, showed no expression, and his tone was resolute.
"Mother, what is a brothel girl? Although Ruhua was born in a brothel, she is a virgin and a good girl with feelings and righteousness.
She is good to me and willing to share the good and bad times with me. Just for this reason, I have to be responsible for her.
If you have any objections and feel that I am embarrassing you by marrying Ruhua, then I will move out tomorrow and never return to Nanshan Village to cause you any more trouble."
The reason why Chen Zhancai dared to say this was because he had already grasped the pulse of the old man and his wife, and was sure that his parents would never let him leave.
He guessed correctly. When Mrs. Chen heard this, her face was filled with smiles.
"What nonsense are you talking about, kid? Since she's a good girl and you really like her, then just stay."
"Thank you, Mom." Chen Zhancai grinned happily, but with his face smeared with cow dung, he looked ugly no matter how you looked at him.
At this moment, Ruhua was moved by these words. Her eyes turned red and tears flowed out, leaving two grooves on her face covered with cow dung.
"Thank you, my husband. I was right about you. Don't worry, no matter whether you are rich or poor in the future, you will be the only one who lets Ruhua down. Ruhua will never let you down."
After she finished speaking, she raised her hand to wipe away her tears. The cow dung that had just dried up turned into a paste again, and her hands were also covered with cow dung. She was so disgusted that she vomited with a vomiting sound.
Chen Zhancai didn't dislike it at all, and hurried forward to pat her on the back, "Hua'er, are you okay?"
Ruhua shook her head. "I'm fine. It's just that this thing is too disgusting. I want to wash it clean."
"Don't be impatient. That damn girl said it has to last for two hours. Be patient for a while, otherwise our suffering will be in vain."
"Okay, I'll listen to you, my husband."
Watching the two of them flirting with each other, Liu Fengjiao felt no emotion in her heart, only disappointment and disgust towards Chen Zhancai. She stood up and pulled Chen Jiye beside her, "Son, let's go back to the room and sleep."
"Wait a minute." Chen Zhancai stopped Liu Fengjiao, "My dear, today is my big day. You and Jiye will have to move to the side building. Ruhua and I will sleep in the west room."
"What? You want me and Jiye to sleep in the side wing?"
Liu Fengjiao was stunned, her eyes full of surprise.
"The west wing has been uninhabited since the eldest family moved out. It's dirty and messy. If you want to live there, go ahead and live there. Jiye and I will never move out for you."
