Chapter 69: Unexpected Gains
Two hours later.
Chen Qiaoyi quietly returned home.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw Chen Shiying sitting in the room with a stern face.
"Sister, why don't you take a nap?" Chen Qiaoyi was startled and asked pretending to be nothing.
"Sleep? How can I sleep with a troublesome sister like you?" In front of her own sister, Chen Shiying really couldn't say anything unpleasant.
"Sister, you... know?" Upon hearing this, Chen Qiaoyi lowered her head instantly, feeling ashamed and embarrassed.
"If I hadn't gone there, how long would you have kept it a secret from me?" Chen Shiying asked angrily.
I warned her a long time ago to take care of herself, but now she's lost her body before we even got married.
If others knew about this, how would I face people?
"I..." Chen Qiaoyi wanted to explain, but she couldn't. She couldn't say that she couldn't help herself!
"Okay, stop talking. Go tell Zhou Ziwen that he should eat at home by himself from now on and you shouldn't go to his house anymore. I won't care about you anymore after you get married." Chen Shiying said decisively.
She was angry with her sister, but even more angry with Zhou Ziwen.
If it weren't for him, my sister wouldn't be like this.
"No, sister, if this is the case, how can I face Brother Ziwen in the future!" Chen Qiaoyi was shocked and begged hurriedly.
"That's your business." Chen Shiying was angry at the moment and didn't listen at all.
"Sister, I did this voluntarily. It has nothing to do with Brother Ziwen." Chen Qiaoyi was also stubborn and didn't care about her sister's good intentions at all.
Or she knew that her sister was doing it for her own good, but she didn't want her brother Ziwen to be wronged.
"You, you damn girl, you made me so mad." Chen Shiying was so angry that her chest was swelling.
"Oh, sister, I know you are doing this for my own good. Don't be angry. Brother Ziwen has already made an agreement with Uncle Wu that they will hold a wedding banquet to marry me after the autumn harvest." Chen Qiaoyi hugged Chen Shiying and comforted her in a low voice.
"Did he really say that?" Chen Shiying felt sorry for her sister, and her anger came and went quickly.
"Really? We agreed on this just now when we were having dinner at Zhou Chaoyang's house. If you don't believe me, go and ask." Chen Qiaoyi hastily assured.
"That's more like it." Chen Shiying muttered, and then said: "Then you can't be like this with him. If others find out, how will you live?"
“Well… actually…”
"Ah, is that so..."
The two sisters were whispering embarrassing things to each other.
After a while, you were pushing and scratching me, laughing and joking.
This crisis, which had not yet arisen, was cleverly resolved by Chen Qiaoyi.
Zhou Ziwen next door didn't know that he had overcome an invisible crisis.
…
After taking a nap, Zhou Ziwen got up from the bed feeling refreshed.
He has a day off today and doesn't have to go to work. In the afternoon, he plans to go to the mountains and chop some firewood.
Zhou Chaoyang and Shen Zhaodi used a lot of firewood to put up the beams this time, so he had to go and replenish some.
After preparing the backpack and axe, Zhou Ziwen went next door and prepared to call Chen Qiaoyi to go with him.
"Yiyi, are you ready? It's time to go." Zhou Ziwen shouted in the yard before entering the house.
"Brother Ziwen, I'm here." Chen Qiaoyi's voice came from inside.
When the door opened, Chen Qiaoyi and Chen Shiying were both there, but Zhou Ziwen felt that his sister-in-law looked at him strangely.
"Sister, let's go to the mountain to collect firewood. Do you want to go?" Zhou Ziwen asked.
"I'll go with you." Chen Shiying nodded.
Since they are living together, she also needs to contribute to the family.
So the original two people became a three-person team.
Because the two sisters only had one backpack, Zhou Ziwen's was requisitioned.
The two sisters carried backpacks, wore straw hats, and wore the same plaid shirts, looking young and beautiful.
When they arrived at the foot of the mountain, the three of them divided the work. The two sisters collected firewood on the outside, while Zhou Ziwen took an axe and prepared to go deeper.
"Look, there's a hare."
Before Zhou Ziwen left, the attentive Chen Shiying suddenly shouted in a low voice.
"Where?"
Zhou Ziwen turned his head and followed the direction of his sister-in-law's finger. There was a rabbit squatting under a tree trunk not far from them. Perhaps it was startled by the noise here, and the rabbit kicked its legs and wanted to run away.
At the critical moment, Zhou Ziwen didn't think twice and the axe in his hand flew out instantly, hitting the hare's body at the moment it escaped.
The powerful axe knocked the hare away in an instant.
Zhou Ziwen quickly stepped forward, grabbed the hare that was still trying to struggle, and strangled its neck tightly. The rabbit died after struggling for a few times.
It was not until then that Zhou Ziwen discovered that the axe that had just flown out had hit the hare's chest, and there was an obvious collapse there. Even if he hadn't caught it, the rabbit would not have been able to escape.
"Wow, I caught you, Brother Ziwen, you are so awesome."
The series of actions just now were performed in a split second. The fifth-level Bajiquan gave him great strength and speed.
By the time the two sisters reacted, Zhou Ziwen had already caught the rabbit in his hands.
"Sister has sharp eyes. If she hadn't found the rabbit, I wouldn't have been able to catch it!" Zhou Ziwen smiled ingratiatingly at Chen Shiying.
On the way here just now, he had already known from Chen Qiaoyi's eyes that their affair had been exposed.
Although his sister-in-law was a little rude to him along the way, he had to endure it.
"I dare not take credit for it." Chen Shiying curled her lips and said a little uncomfortably.
When she saw Zhou Ziwen, she recalled the voice she had heard in the yard not long ago, as well as the feelings her sister had whispered to her.
When she thought of this, her legs felt weak and she couldn't breathe.
"Oh, today we have both pork and rabbit. What should we eat? I'm so confused!"
Seeing that her sister's tone was bad, Chen Qiaoyi hurriedly changed the subject, fearing that she would have a conflict with Brother Ziwen.
"Sister, what do you think?" Zhou Ziwen doesn't care, as long as there is food.
"Let's take this rabbit back to make cured rabbit. Let's eat the pork first." When talking about food, Chen Shiying returned to normal.
"There's no need to make a cured rabbit. There won't be much meat after it's dried. How about marinating it first and eating it tomorrow?" Zhou Ziwen thought about it and felt that making a cured rabbit was not cost-effective.
"That's fine too."
Originally, Chen Shiying thought that they had eaten too much meat recently and wanted to save it for later, but since Zhou Ziwen had spoken, she didn't know what to say.
After all, he was the one who hunted the rabbit, so he has the final say on how to arrange it.
"Okay, then you guys keep busy. I'll go take a look at the mountain."
The rabbit is just an unexpected gain, the real work has not yet begun!
"Then be careful."
Just as Zhou Ziwen was about to leave, he heard his sister-in-law's voice behind him.
"Well, okay." Zhou Ziwen turned around and waved with a smile.
But he was extremely happy in his heart. It seemed that his sister-in-law cared about him very much!
He thought that she would be angry for a while after the incident!
