Chapter 39 Do you beat your wife?

Su Taotao sighed and looked at Fu Zhengtu: "Are you sure you want to talk about these things in front of outsiders?"

She emphasized the word "outsider".

"Uncle, please go back first." It was Uncle Fu who said this, but his eyes were fixed on Su Taotao.

Uncle Fu thought his words had worked, and he took advantage of the situation to add fuel to the fire: "Zhengtu, let me tell you, your wife can't get used to it. If you don't beat her for three days, she will go crazy. She only pretends to be well-behaved in front of you, but she is actually very wild..."

Fu Zhengtu shifted his gaze away from Su Taotao's face and glanced coldly at Uncle Fu.

Uncle Fu immediately muted his voice and said, "Well, Zhengtu, Secretary Hu..."

Fu Zhengtu: "Please go back!"

The words were respectful, but the tone was not.

Uncle Fu knew his nephew to some extent. If he quit while he was ahead, the matter would be over. But if he couldn't get through with the matter, he would probably be stripped of his position as captain.

Uncle Fu touched his nose and said, "Then I'll go back first. After all, a husband and wife are bound by love for a hundred days. Don't be too harsh. If something goes wrong, it won't sound good if it gets out."

Zhou Linglan couldn't listen any longer: "Uncle, the men in our family are different from yours. Men in our family don't beat women. Go back."

Uncle Fu didn't think so. It was because Zhengtu's father passed away early, and when he was alive he was away from home all the time. Otherwise, with his violent temper, ten people would not be enough to beat the second son's wife, who was too small.

If Zhengtu's father were still alive, he would want to lift the coffin lid and jump up to beat Uncle Fu up for spreading rumors.

"Then should I put the meat here?" Uncle Fu, with a painful look on his face, pushed the piece of pork, which weighed less than a pound, towards Fu Zhengtu.

Zhou Linglan was about to refuse.

Su Taotao's sight was blocked by Fu Zhengtu. She turned sideways and said with her head tilted, "Mom, let's not be mean to the meat. The captain either scolds us or spreads rumors when he comes to our house. It's a rare opportunity for him to return the meat to us. It would be a disrespect to refuse it."

Only a fool would not accept the meat that is delivered to your door. I would rather cook it for Teacher Cao than give it to some uncle for free.

Zhou Linglan was used to listening to Su Taotao, so she stepped forward and took the meat.

Uncle Fu held it tightly. Zhou Linglan pulled it hard and looked at him in confusion: "His uncle?"

Uncle Fu reluctantly let go. He hadn't seen meat for a long time and wanted to eat some meat.

Uncle Fu thought it was better not to see it, and stopped looking at the piece of meat. The more he thought about it, the more heartbroken he became. "Then I'll go back first. Call me if you need anything."

Zhou Linglan closed the door and looked at Fu Zhengtu worriedly: "Zhengtu, that matter is not what your uncle said. It's not Taotao's fault. You..."

Fu Zhengtu: "I know."

After he finished speaking, he took Su Taotao's wrist and walked towards the room.

Fu Zhengtu's fingers were covered with a thin layer of cocoon, but his palms were soft and warm, and the temperature was transmitted to Su Taotao's heart through the skin and veins. The touch and shivering caused by these hands caressing other parts of her body last night and at noon were still there.

A great writer once said a very dirty quote, which roughly means that once a man and a woman have physical intimacy, the feelings can easily be sublimated, either to the heart or to the soul.

Before yesterday, Su Taotao felt that she and Fu Zhengtu were still strangers and had no plans to take the relationship any further. It would be best if they could treat each other with respect. If they could not develop feelings for each other, then they would wait for reform and opening up, and when the dust had settled a little, they would separate peacefully and live in the best of their own lives.

But after having physical intimacy with him, she actually became "arrogant because of her favor", and thought that no matter what she did, someone like Fu Zhengtu would not do anything to her.

Is it love?

I can’t say for now.

However, a man who is good-looking, has a good figure, is good at sex and has good sex skills, is hard to find as a sexual partner no matter what era it is.

If possible, Su Taotao still wants to save it.

After entering the room, Su Taotao asked him seriously, "Do you beat your wife?"

Fu Zhengtu was stunned for a moment, then he curled his lips and shook his head: "No, men in our family never hit women."

Su Taotao sighed. This man's smile was so terrible. How could he be so handsome?

"So do you want to hear my explanation?" Su Taotao asked again.

Fu Zhengtu shook his head again: "It doesn't matter. I want to ask you, do you still want to go back to the city?"

He didn't know much about "Su Taotao" before, and he was not 100% willing to marry her. Since she wanted to marry him so much, it would be fine to just marry her as a memorial tablet. They would get married and have children anyway, so it would be the same who he married. He didn't have that much time to waste on lesbians.

But time can really change a person a lot. He can hardly find any trace of the "Su Taotao" in the past in the Su Taotao in front of him. His current wife can make him relax and happy physically and mentally. They also have a child. This forces him to redefine marriage and wife. It seems that he should spend some time to think about her and he is willing to spend some time to understand her.

Su Taotao nodded honestly: "Yes, I did. I married you because I didn't want to live in the countryside. It's not that I didn't want to, but I simply didn't have the ability to live in the countryside."

Su Taotao stretched out her hands and looked at them. "I have thin arms and legs. I would starve to death if I relied on farming to make a living. I didn't have enough vision and perspective before. I just wanted to rely on you to solve the problem of food and clothing. In the end, you left me and walked away. What can I do?"

Su Taotao spoke half-truthfully, combining the plot with her own personality, and using her eloquent tongue to come up with a set of words that even moved herself, and the more she spoke, the more she was moved.

"Before I had dust, I was still rotting away, just wanting to be a rice borer. But then I got dust unexpectedly, and all the money you left me was spent, and there was still no news from you. I had no choice. There were young and old people in the family, and the little money my mother earned was only enough to feed one person. I could only rack my brains to find a job that would earn money to support the family without having to work in the fields.

So, even if you never come back, I can actually support my family now, but life will be a little harder. I will never really abandon them alone and go back to the city. Even if I really had such a thought for a moment, it is also human nature.

As for jumping into the river, it was an accident. I just wanted to show off to my uncle, but I accidentally fell in."

She couldn't tell Fu Zhengtu that "Su Taotao", the perfect mother, never cared about Chenchen's life or death, and didn't want him at all. She just wanted to abandon your family and go back to the city to continue her relationship with her childhood sweetheart.

She didn't want to take the blame, but she had to give a reasonable explanation for jumping into the river. Otherwise, it would be a thorn in her heart and affect their relationship if she didn't remove it.

Although I don't have any feelings now.

Fu Zhengtu felt very guilty after listening to this. She was a helpless educated youth who went to the countryside, and she thought that if she married him she would have someone to rely on. However, she didn't expect that he didn't take this marriage seriously at all, nor did he put her in the position of a wife.

After returning to work, I never even thought about what she looked like. When I received her photo, I actually felt that she looked very strange.

"sorry."

He really wanted to say that he would not do that again, but the nature of his job did not allow him to make too many promises to her, and he did not know when he would have to completely cut off contact with the outside world next time.

Can't even explain it.

In fact, Su Taotao knew that scientific research involving national security level required a first-level confidentiality. Great scientific researchers like Fu Zhengtu were often helpless. His family members were like military wives and could only silently be the women behind them.

Su Taotao didn't want to pretend she didn't know: "I forgive you, so please forgive me too."

Fu Zhengtu looked into her clean and clear eyes, his heart was in turmoil, and finally he nodded and said, "Okay."

"There's one more thing I don't want you to know from other people," Su Taotao said again.
