Chapter 38 Family Status



Shen Heng wasn't concerned about the food; he was mainly annoyed that the kid had interrupted his good time.

Bai Jiaojiao walked to the door, and Wang Fushun could finally see her clearly.

Bai Jiaojiao was so small, standing next to Shen Heng she looked like a little rabbit. Wang Fushun was worried that Shen Heng might accidentally strangle Bai Jiaojiao to death.

However, Bai Jiaojiao did look different from the girls he usually saw. Even the female students in the town were not as smooth and shiny as Bai Jiaojiao.

Wang Fushun wanted to tease Shen Heng about his good fortune, but seeing Shen Heng's expression, he changed the subject.

"Sister-in-law, did you make those glutinous rice strips that Heng brought over today? They taste so authentic. Everyone was scrambling to buy them as soon as I put them out. I came over to ask if you could make more. These things sell like hotcakes."

Wang Fushun spoke with exaggerated, animated expressions.

Bai Jiaojiao smiled and pursed her lips: "I'm not worried about how many I can sell?"

"I'll sell as many as I have! Don't worry, sister-in-law, I have plenty of connections!"

Wang Fushun does this kind of work.

If Shen Heng was involved in the reselling business, he mainly focused his energy on working for the production team.

Wang Fushun, on the other hand, was completely out of touch with the local community; he was a true scoundrel.

Bai Jiaojiao said, "If you're talking about making it, it's not a problem to make dozens of kilograms a day, but Brother Heng can't go to town every day. It would take at least three or four hours to go there and back."

When Shen Heng heard that Bai Jiaojiao was worried about him getting tired, the corners of his mouth involuntarily turned up.

Wang Fushun rarely saw Shen Heng smile, and seeing his expression was especially strange.

He was standing on the stone steps at the door when he saw Shen Heng smiling at him, and involuntarily took half a step back.

“Sister-in-law, that’s easy. Our village passes through here on the way to the town. I can just come here to pick up the goods every morning. Brother Heng won’t have to make a trip.”

"Really?" Bai Jiaojiao was pleasantly surprised; she hadn't realized there was such a thing as door-to-door pickup.

"This is nothing. So, sister-in-law, how much can you supply each day?"

"five……"

Bai Jiaojiao wanted to say fifty jin, but Shen Heng thought this little girl was crazy about making money.

"Twenty pounds, that's all!"

Shen Heng interrupted him rudely.

"..." Wang Fushun looked at Shen Heng, then at Bai Jiaojiao, "Brother Heng, didn't your wife say this was the number?"

Wang Fushun spread out his five fingers.

"Who's in charge, hers or mine?" Shen Heng glared at Wang Fushun, trying to get him to decide their respective positions in the family.

Bai Jiaojiao pouted and looked up at Shen Heng with pleading eyes. In Wang Fushun's eyes, she looked like a wronged little wife.

"Of course, it's up to Heng-ge to decide!"

Wang Fushun sighed inwardly. With Heng-ge's bad temper, even the best woman would suffer if she fell into his hands!

Shen Heng was very satisfied with Wang Fushun's answer, and he put his hands on his hips and became quite self-righteous.

"Brother Heng, from now on I'll be passing by here every morning at four o'clock. Can you prepare my things for me?"

Shen Heng nodded, and the matter was considered settled. Wang Fushun immediately counted out twenty yuan: "Then we'll settle the bill one day at a time."

Shen Heng accepted the money: "Starting the day after tomorrow morning, there's no time today."

"Okay! It's settled then, I'll head back now!"

Wang Fushun immediately agreed.

Out of politeness, Bai Jiaojiao asked, "Aren't you staying for dinner?"

"They're waiting at home," Wang Fushun waved his hand, handing over the basket and wine that Shen Heng had left with him that morning. "I'm going back now, Brother Heng, Sister-in-law, I won't bother you any longer, you two eat!"

"Wait, I need to tell you something!"

Wang Fushun turned around, and Shen Heng called him back, pulled him aside, and muttered something that Bai Jiaojiao couldn't hear.

Seeing this, Bai Jiaojiao simply went into the courtyard, ignoring the two of them.

When Shen Heng returned, he saw Bai Jiaojiao pouting, clearly angry.

Bai Jiaojiao gave Shen Heng face in front of Wang Fushun and didn't argue with him immediately. But once the door was closed, she couldn't hold back her temper.

When she saw Shen Heng looking at her, she turned and left, leaving behind an angry back of her head.

Shen Heng followed closely behind Bai Jiaojiao, asking, "I was just worried about tiring you out, Jiaojiao. Are you still angry with your brother Heng?"

Bai Jiaojiao remained silent, while Shen Heng scratched his head.

"I……"

Damn it, nobody taught him how to coax his wife.

"Have a meal!"

Bai Jiaojiao called out to Shen Heng. Seeing that Bai Jiaojiao was paying attention to him, Shen Heng happily went to tidy up the table, busying himself with chores, completely unaware of how obsequious he, the person who "has the final say at home," was.

Bai Jiaojiao wasn't tactless; she knew, of course, that Shen Heng was being considerate of her.

She just felt that she couldn't do much work in the fields, so she had the energy to do some extra work to generate more income for the family, so that she and Shen Heng could have an easier time.

Bai Jiaojiao chewed on the rabbit in her mouth, calculating how long it would take to build a new house.

Seeing Bai Jiaojiao lost in thought again, Shen Heng asked, "What are you thinking about? You seem to have lost your soul since you came back today."

I won't tell you.

Bai Jiaojiao pouted, and Shen Heng gritted his teeth in annoyance: "I think you don't want to sleep tonight."

"Heng-ge! You're not allowed to bully people..."

Bai Jiaojiao, holding her bowl, looked angrily at the scoundrel in front of her whose mind was filled with thoughts of taking off his pants and getting into bed.

"Jiaojiao, let me tell you the truth." Shen Heng suddenly became serious.

"Hmm?" Bai Jiaojiao listened attentively.

"The way you look so angry makes me want to do it even more."

"!!!"

Shen Heng completely enraged Bai Jiaojiao, who put down the bowl with a flushed face and walked away.

Where are you going?

Shen Heng was one step ahead and pulled the person back.
