Luo Yunhe naturally understood the meaning behind the other party's words clearly.
She looked down at her floral dress, which was indeed very new and the colors were very pure.
If someone is dressed neatly, formally, and festively, then is that seductive? If she is dressed in fine silks and satins, wouldn't that mean she's about to have an affair?
"What, you're envious? My husband bought this dress for me. I love it! Besides, it's my dress, I can wear it however I want, it's none of your business, if you don't like it, you can close your eyes!"
Luo Yunhe retorted without any politeness.
"Tsk tsk tsk! I just think it's a skirt, and you're going out dressed like that, won't you... After all, I've heard there are quite a few bachelors in this village."
"Where's my brother? He's never home. Who knows what you're up to outside..." Zhang Lingling couldn't help but sneer.
Su Jingxing felt that his wife's words were a bit too much, so he reached out and tugged at her clothes.
"What are you doing, Su Jingxing? Don't forget, I'm your wife!" Zhang Lingling glared at him angrily.
"I know, honey, don't be angry. Sister-in-law, don't take it to heart, Lingling is just straightforward, she doesn't mean any harm..."
Luo Yunhe didn't give her any face. After spending the last two days with her, he knew that Zhang Lingling was not someone to be trifled with. If it weren't for the fact that she had some money, Su Chenshi probably wouldn't have tolerated her.
A person's character is judged entirely by their words. You can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want.
After all, all my clothes combined aren't as expensive as yours, sister-in-law's clothes, which are made of fine silk and satin.
If if I go out in coarse linen clothes, it's considered ostentatious, then if you, sister-in-law, wear fine silk and satin, wouldn't that be considered adultery?
"Don't blame me for not reminding you, if you can't even keep your own man, it's because you're incompetent. You can't blame others; you need to look for the reasons within yourself!" Luo Yunhe retorted without any politeness and left.
"Who are you calling an adulterer?" Zhang Lingling's voice rose considerably as she grabbed Luo Yunhe's arm, preventing him from leaving.
"How can your mouth be so filthy, you little bitch? I'll tear your mouth apart!" Zhang Lingling reached out to hit her.
The moment the other person grabbed him, Luo Yunhe turned around and, seeing her raise her hand, he didn't hesitate to reach out and grab her wrist.
She'd been eating well these past few days, regained some strength, and done some work. Although her hands had developed some calluses, she could still easily handle a delicate young lady.
"What did you say?" Su Jingxuan came out of the room at this moment and happened to see Zhang Lingling trying to hit Luo Yunhe.
He strode over, reached out and shielded Luo Yunhe behind him, pushed Zhang Lingling aside, created distance, and stared intently at them.
"Second brother, second sister-in-law, what's wrong? Trying to bully my wife so early in the morning?" He had heard the conversation clearly from inside the house.
This woman is really...
"Eldest brother, what are you doing? Don't you have any manners as an older brother? How dare you push your sister-in-law?" Su Chenshi heard the commotion outside and quickly came out, standing in front of Zhang Lingling as if to support her.
"Brother, it's a misunderstanding. Lingling didn't mean any harm. He misunderstood. I only exchanged a few words with my sister-in-law."
"Lingling, you've misunderstood. That's your sister-in-law. Don't be jealous!"
"She insulted me, didn't you hear it? Su Jingxing, you wouldn't be siding with them, would you?"
"Luo Yunhe, I think you've really gotten too bold. How dare you insult your sister-in-law?" Madam Su Chen glared angrily.
"Heh, who started the nonsense? Everyone should know. I'm already being lenient by not going up and hitting her. What, has things been too peaceful at home lately? Have you forgotten how fierce I am?"
"Oh dear, Lingling, stop making a scene. It's so embarrassing to keep acting like this so early in the morning!" Su Jingxing immediately turned to Su Jingxuan and said, "Big brother, don't be angry. Lingling is used to being pampered and may not be able to accept many things."
"You'll see he didn't mean any harm in time, sister-in-law, please don't be angry anymore. I'm here to apologize!"
"Mother, this is all a misunderstanding, please don't blame my sister-in-law..."
Luo Yunhe ignored them and went straight to the kitchen.
Su Jingxuan glared at them coldly and followed Luo Yunhe into the kitchen.
Zhang Lingling continued to act childishly, while Su Jingxing comforted her.
Su Chenshi also coaxed, "Lingling, don't be angry. She's just some wild girl who came from who-knows-where. Why are you getting angry with her?"
From now on, let her do all the housework. Don't get angry; it'll upset your health and break your mother's heart!"
Zhang Lingling felt somewhat better after being coaxed by Su Chenshi.
"Look, your mother loves you. Don't be angry, wife. Come, come inside..."
After appeasing her second daughter-in-law, Su Chenshi's expression immediately darkened, and she went straight to the kitchen.
Luo Yunhe ignored her and simply cooked some sago porridge and stir-fried some green vegetables in the pot.
They even only made enough for two people, and didn't make any for them at all.
Madam Su glared angrily at Luo Yunhe. She knew how formidable Luo Yunhe was, so no matter what she said next, Luo Yunhe would definitely not do it so easily.
Therefore, she turned her attention to Su Jingxuan.
"Boss, we haven't finished the work in the fields yet. Why don't you take two days off from the academy and finish the work in the fields before you go back!"
Before Su Jingxuan could say anything, Luo Yunhe objected: "No, my husband teaches at the academy and also goes hunting in the mountains. He pays for almost all of the expenses."
Why should he still have to do the work in the fields?
“If he doesn’t want to do it, then you should do it. Someone has to work in the fields, otherwise what will this family eat and drink?” Su Chenshi retorted.
"Heh, what, is it just the two of us left in this house? Aren't you two human? Can't you do anything? Or do you just want us to sit there and enjoy ourselves?"
"Luo Yunhe, you..."
"What do you mean, 'I'? Even if you take away my wife and me, you still have at least five people you can use. Let whoever wants to do the work in the fields do it! My husband can't do it!"
I'm telling you, don't mess with me, or I'll beat you up. I'm sure you don't want your youngest daughter-in-law to see the whole house in such a mess and be looked down upon by others, right?
Su Chenshi was so angry at Luo Yunhe's words that she gasped for breath, pointing at him, unable to say a word.
"Husband, I won't let you go. So many of them refuse, but they insist on making you go alone. This is bullying!" Luo Yunhe pouted at Su Jingxuan.
[Sorry I didn't make it through both rounds, but I have no intention of abandoning the story, though updates will be very slow!]
