I am chasing a rough man in the 80s
Chapter 231: She Held a Grudge

Chapter 231: Chapter 231: She Held a Grudge

Yu Jingting felt utterly bewildered by her question.

"What Wang’s daughter? Are you talking about Mr. Wang next door? Since when does he have a daughter?"

Next door also lived an old Mr. Wang, a teacher who used to instruct Wang Cuihua in the Book of Changes. But he only had two sons.

"By the stream in Yang Village, do you remember now?" Suizi continued softly.

Yu Jingting smelled a whiff of impending danger.

A stream, Miss Wang?

What on earth was it that made his wife displeased when these elements were combined?

Suizi wanted to extend two thumbs-up, perform a corresponding gesture, but felt that it would make her look petty.

She hummed and ignored him.

Leaving Yu Jingting dumbfound, he had no idea why his wife was unhappy from beginning to end.

After lunch, Suizi took a nap, got up, and went to work.

Yu Jingting wanted to escort her, but Suizi chuckled sarcastically, refusing.

"Mother, why is my wife unhappy?" After Suizi left, Yu Jingting asked Wang Cuihua.

At this moment, Wang Cuihua stood in front of the mirror, washed her face, and earnestly applied the facial cream that Suizi gave her.

"You must have annoyed your wife, and I have a solution."

"What?"

"See the washboard leaning against the cabin? When Suizi comes home from work, kneel directly on it without a word, and she will definitely cool down."

".... Mother, tell the truth, I was picked up from somewhere, right? Suizi is your real daughter, right?"

Yu Jingting felt being despised.

Wang Cuihua paused her face-patting action, thought for a moment, then said, "I dug you out of a manure pit."

".... Look at yourself in the mirror then talk!" Yu Jingting really didn’t want to remind this vanity-driven matriarch.

She wouldn’t look in the mirror? He got his facial features from her!

"You’re left only with the strength of your looks." Wang Cuihua scanned Yu Jingting from top to bottom, "I don’t even know how you managed to attract so many young girls."

"Youngsters today only care about appearances. Unlike us in our time, we at least looked for good character. A characterless man like you will eventually end up being a bachelor."

A twitch occurred in Yu Jingting’s temple.

He reminded himself that she was his birth mother, not someone to vent his frustrations on.....

"I was not aware that young girls liked me. They only adore me."

Yu Jingting felt great and kept bragging in front of his mother.

"Well, there were quite a few young maidens who liked you back in the days. Every time I went out, a few of the girls would try to get closer to me, but I always gave them a cold face. Those who liked you definitely would not be proper girls."

"Oh, Suizi doesn’t count. Suizi is a good girl. But she didn’t like you when she first got married. It was only due to my goodwill as a mother-in-law that she reluctantly didn’t dislike you."

"Old lady, if you keep belittling your son like this, we won’t be able to continue our conversation."

Wang Cuihua kicked him.

"Who are you calling old lady? I’m only in my forties and still young."

That was true.

Ever since Suizi stepped into the house, Wang Cuihua felt comfortable.

Suizi always bought her younger looking clothes; a happy mood and a little dressing up made her look younger and prettier than her peers.

Wang Hui, who was in her thirties, looked about the same age as Wang Cuihua. Having a positive mentality was the best cosmetic for women.

"You’re as dense as a metal bar when it comes to relationships. You take after your idiot father – you don’t even notice when people like you."

"Let’s not talk about the past. Just a few months before your marriage, the eldest daughter of the Wang Dali family from Wang Village came to our home in pursuit of you. Weren’t you aware?"

The words from Wang Cuihua left Yu Jingting in long-term mental turmoil.

Just as he was thinking about what was going on, a soft voice came from outside the door.

"I forgot my bag, Jingting, could you fetch it for me?"

Suizi, who had returned, made the mother and son in the house hold their breaths.

That gentle sentence, heard in Yu Jingting’s ears, was not about handing over any bag, but more like her bearing a death warrant from King Yama!

"The bag is here! Come, let me escort you~" the overly eager man was somehow feeling guilty, but he did not understand why.

"No need, I’ll walk myself. After all, we are adults now, you... don’t have to follow."

Good heavens! She is bearing a grudge! She definitely is bearing a grudge!! Yu Jingting felt his blood run cold.

She must have heard his mother saying that Wang - something - chased him home and now she is pissed!

"The roads are icy, I’m not worried about you, but it’s our baby whom I’m concerned about - Mother, I’m going to see Suizi off!"

While speaking, Yu Jingting followed her outside without even bothering to puff himself up.

Wang Cuihua shook her head.

"Look at this imbecile. There’s no shame in fearing your wife, why swallow this bitter pill? You would’ve solved everything by getting down on your knees."

"Wife, be careful! The road is slippery~" Yu Jingting followed Suizi, reaching out to grasp her hand.

"No need! I can walk!" Suizi shook him off and shot him a side glare.

"Mr. Yu values his image, doesn’t he? Pulling and tugging outside, in front of others, you seem just like the ’indecent’ young girls."

She emphasized the ’indecent’ part.

Her mother-in-law said that those who liked him were indecent, except for her.

Yu Jingting felt a chill hit his forehead, colder than the winter breeze.

"What’s wrong with holding my wife’s hand? Who dares to comment? We are legitimately married!"

While speaking, disregarding Suizi’s resistance, he directly grabbed her hand, put it in his pocket, and meanwhile cheerfully greeted neighbours passing by.

"Teacher Zhao, no class this afternoon?"

"Jingting, are you walking Suizi? You really do care about people."

"Heh, she’s my wife. If I don’t care about her, who should I then? Hahaha!"

This shameless behaviour made Teacher Zhao blush. Young people nowadays, they are definitely..... passionate.

Once the neighbour had passed, Yu Jingting continued to tease Suizi with a grin on his face.

"Wife, are you mad?"

"My husband is liked by women. It proves that you are excellent and that my taste is good. Why should I be angry?"

Suizi told herself that, as a mature woman, she should not act childishly.

If something is not desired by someone, then it just means it’s not good enough. It’s quite normal for him, being such a good man, to have two to three admirers, isn’t it?

But why did she feel a sourness in her heart, as if an invisible little hand pricked her with a needle.

It didn’t hurt terribly, but the "tsk" sound that would occasionally come was greatly annoying.

"Are you really not angry?" Yu Jingting carefully looked at her.

Suizi forced a smile, even though she felt as if her heart was bleeding, she pretended to be generous.

"Alright then. Stand here, don’t move. I’m going to buy some tangerines for you."

Yu Jingting saw a tangerine vendor along the road and asked her to stand by.

This back figure made Suizi feel a sense of fatherly love.

She was originally angry, but seeing him rushing over there, she found it quite amusing.

What was she awkward about? He is hers now. And whether he has kissed someone else before or not, she could just ask him, right?

Suizi made up her mind, yes, this is how it should be done!
