I am chasing a rough man in the 80s
Chapter 440: All Judgments were Wrong

Chapter 440: Chapter 440: All Judgments were Wrong

Wang Cuihua was struck by a sudden thought. She looked towards Yu Shuisheng, who was still wrestling with some lumber in the courtyard. An image flashed in her mind of Yang Jinhuan, with his worm body and human face, gnawing on top of Shuisheng, devouring him until he was hardly recognizable.

Escaping just like the piece of wood Shuisheng sawed, twisted and distorted...

Gritting her teeth, Cuihua clenched the paper in her fists, she would watch!

However, Yu Jingting dismissed Suizi’s overly careful guide to preventing mistresses with scant interest.

"You have too much free time," he commented offhandedly.

After dinner, the couple went for a walk, each holding a child.

Upon hearing Suizi’s "grand plan", Yu Jingting only managed to remark,

Suizi, who had been all hopeful for praises, felt like she had a bucket of cold water dumped on her.

"I think my plan is perfect," she protested.

"You know nothing about the old man’s temper, no, I should say, about his shamelessness," he shot back.

"???" she questioned.

"You showed your stuff to our mother, which is fine. But dared she read it to our old man? Given his temper, he wouldn’t listen to the whole thing, maybe just five points and then he’d—"

Suizi stiffened, her grip on their daughter unconsciously tightening.

"Hit, hit our mother?!" she gasped in disbelief.

Yu Jingting motioned her to hush. Suizi’s face turned a deep shade of red, her eyes asking him, is it true?

Jingting nodded gravely.

"Based on my understanding of the old man, he’s shameless enough to do that. Don’t believe me? Let me show you—" Jingting securely held their chubby child with one arm and wickedly placed his other hand under Suizi’s chin.

"Woman, are you seducing me?" he teased.

"..." was all she could muster.

Suizi felt guilty; had she not just set her mother-in-law up?

This scheme of hers might work in other families, but she overlooked the fact that both Yu Shuisheng and Yu Jingting are no-nonsense leaders. Their peculiar tastes were already quite different from others.

A serious anti-mistress act, in their eyes, could easily be misunderstood as intentional seduction.

A wave of guilt washed over Suizi.

"Our relationship, with our mother, it won’t... break because of this, right?" she croaked out nervously.

"Not likely, how about you make her an invigorating soup, she might even like you more," he suggested.

"...Please stop giving bad advice."

By doing so, wouldn’t she be revealing to her mother-in-law that she and Jingting were constantly keeping tabs on the elder’s private life?

"Or we could do this, when we get home, I’ll accompany our mother to take a bath, you can sneak back and take back what I wrote, how about that?"

"What if she’s already memorized all of it?"

Suizi froze.

The little Luoluo in her arms stretched out her chubby hand, gently patting her face. Not to worry, Mom, you must be strong!

The couple strolled back home after a while.

From a distance, Shen Liangyin put down her telescope. Standing beside her was Yang Jinhuan. They had been spying on Yu Jingting’s couple for a while, unbeknownst to them.

"Liangyin, why did you drag me away earlier?" Yang Jinhuan persisted. She hadn’t seen Shuisheng for months, she felt he was even more charming now.

It would be pretty hard for her to find a better match than Fourth Brother at her age.

"Because you’ve lost to Yu Jingting’s wife," Shen Liangyin squeezed her telescope, deep in thought.

"Didn’t we have already checked that woman out? She’s just someone from a village who wormed her way up into society by getting into a vocational school and earning a job. A cold and selfish woman who even abandoned her own father. He curses her every time he meets people in the countryside," questioned Yang Jinhuan.

There wasn’t much they could find out about Suizi other than these tidbits.

"How many people in a village can get into a vocational school? She is smart, yes. But don’t you find it strange?"

"What?" Yang Jinhuan was still preoccupied with the sight of Fourth Uncle’s strong muscles, wrapped up in thoughts about how to make this man her own, and paid no mind to Shen Liangyin’s words.

"Doesn’t the Yu Family, especially Yu Jingting, favor boys over girls? I’ve been observing for quite some time and never seen Yu Jingting cradling his daughter, nor has Yu Shuisheng ever spoiled his granddaughter as much as his grandson. This family still retains the old farmer’s prejudice favoring boys over girls."

"Oh, now that you mention it, it does seem that way," Yang Jinhuan realized.

Unbeknownst to the Yu Family, the two of them had been silently watching for quite a while now.

The men of the Yu family all had a habit of leisurely walks with their wives.

During the day when Suizi and her husband were at work, Yu Shuisheng and Wang Cuihua took the kids out for a walk.

In the evenings, the younger couples came out for a stroll, also carrying their boy and girl twins.

But there was one similarity.

Whenever Suizi left the house, she always carried her daughter, leaving the boy to Yu Jingting.

Although it was a minor detail, Shen Liangyin caught it nonetheless.

By common reasoning, it seemed that Yu Jingting certainly favored boys over girls.

And so did his father.

"The biggest reason Fourth Uncle returned is probably that his woman gave him a son. No man can resist the urge to carry on his lineage. If you bear a son for him as well, his heart will certainly lean toward you," commented Shen Liangyin.

"Easier said than done. I can hardly get to see him, let alone bear his son," Yang Jinhuan expressed her frustration.

"No hurry, we will plan for the long term..." Shen Liangyin’s lips curled in amusement. "Chen Hansui is it? I’m curious to see exactly how capable the top academic from the key community college really is."

When they returned from their walk, Wang Cuihua and her husband were nowhere to be seen. The door to the eastern room was closed, and even the curtain was dropped.

Whenever Suizi thought of Yu Jingting’s words, she felt even more guilt towards her mother-in-law.

"Mama!" The baby boy in Yu Jingting’s arms, Bobo, reached out towards Suizi.

Suizi quickly took her son from Yu Jingting’s arms, passing her daughter to him instead.

"Bobo, have you gotten fatter again?" Suizi weighed her son in her arms.

Her son was born bigger than her daughter, and he was now a full size larger than her.

The little guy wasn’t very talkative, he was constantly eating and gaining weight.

So, every time they stepped outside, the men of the Yu Family would voluntarily pick up the heavier child.

"Let’s get a weight on him." Yu Jingting grabbed a triangular cloth bag, placed his son into it and weighed him using a rod scale.

"Are you weighing a piglet?!" Suizi recognized his actions.

It was the same method used by those who sold piglets at the market.

"The child of a wild boar is a piglet, there’s nothing wrong with that — wow, the little guy’s put on another half a jin," Yu Jingting pinched Bobo’s chubby face. The little boy had become accustomed to his dad and sister treating him as a toy.

After weighing the son, he did the same for his daughter.

"How come she’s lost weight?!" Yu Jingting was not happy.

Jiaojiao hopped in from outside, a stick of candy in her hand.

"If she doesn’t sleep well then she won’t gain weight," Jiaojiao said.

The twins had polar opposite personalities. One took after their mother and preferred a quiet contemplation of life. The other was exactly like their dad, restless every moment.

"Come here." Yu Jingting motioned to his sister with a crook of his finger.

As Jiaojiao approached, he grabbed her, ignoring her struggle, and fished out several one-yuan notes from her pocket.

"Confiscated." Yu Jingting swiped his sister’s money and began to walk away, with Jiaojiao hanging onto him like a monkey.

"Give it back! That’s from father!"

Yu Jingting had guessed as soon as he got home that the old man had given the money to Jiaojiao and she must have it in her pocket.

"I’ll pay you back when I get my wage in a few days. The money’s mine now."

"Sister-in-law! Look at what he’s doing!" Jiaojiao complained.

Suizi was caught between laughter and annoyance, about to step in when the door to the eastern room opened.
