Chapter 163: Chapter 163: Just Happening to Feel Energetic in the Evening
Shen Meng woke up in a daze and, lifting her head, saw Lu Zhenping smiling at her with a playful expression. She was about to move when her mind suddenly cleared up a bit.
"Where is your hand? Move it away!"
"Hmm, it seems to have grown quite a bit, mostly thanks to my efforts."
Shen Meng: "....."
Say it again, you shameless thing, say it again—I was already not small, okay? You have nothing to do with it!!!
"Get up, get up, always lounging around and sleeping at home, what does that look like? Hurry and get up, hiss—if you grab me again, I will slap your face."
Shen Meng looked at Lu Zhenping with flushed cheeks, the shameless jerk daring to sneak an attack on her. If his handsome face hadn’t been so appealing to her, she would have definitely spat at him.
Lu Zhenping really adored her—her shyness, pride, and her unwillingness to hit him despite her anger and tantrums. She was so cute he could die.
"Muah, muah, such a good girl."
Shen Meng wrinkled her brow and wiped the saliva off her cheeks twice, not understanding why he was suddenly so crazy, holding her face and nibbling at it so much.
"Has your big sister left?"
"Yes, she has, it’s pretty late now. She has already returned to the county. She wanted to say goodbye to you when leaving, but I told her you get grumpy when you wake up and might hit people. I didn’t dare to provoke you. If you got angry, not only would I be beaten, but Mingyang and the others wouldn’t escape either. She told me to remind you not to forget the thing you two agreed on."
Shen Meng: "...."
The scoundrel, ruining my reputation.
In the main room, Mingyang and Mingliang, the three kids, were doing their homework. When they saw Shen Meng coming out, Mingliang took out his homework, wanting to show off in front of Shen Meng and take the opportunity to lecture her, but Ming Fang quickly stepped on him under the table.
"Don’t show off. Mom already has her elementary graduation diploma, personally issued by Teacher Zheng. You’re just an elementary chicken."
Lu Mingliang pouted his lips; he had forgotten about that. But why was his younger sister using Mom’s words to tease him? If he tried hard, he could get a diploma too. But didn’t he refrain from advancing grades just to avoid hurting his proud older brother’s heart? At the end of the day, he really was a good brother, not skipping grades just for his brother!!!
"Ouch, I’ve just woken up feeling lazy and don’t want to do anything. Hubby, since you’re not busy, could you deliver the meals Lu Lanhua brought over from the old yard to Jinghao and Jiasheng? Our family has so much food, it would be perfect to give it to them, so they won’t need to cook tonight."
Lu Zhenping chuckled, raising his eyebrows and giving her a look. Not to mention delivering meals, he would gladly cook dinner, bathe the kids, wash the whole family’s clothes, and tend to her sleep.
"Alright, I’ll go right now. There’s no need to cook tonight, just heating up the dishes will do. If you want to rest, rest; if not, go out for a visit or do some exercise. It’s good that you slept so much this afternoon; you’ll be more energetic tonight, tsk."
Shen Meng: "...."
Such a lewd laugh, this wretch!!!
After Lu Zhenping left, seeing that it was still early, Shen Meng took Ming Fang with her, pocketing a handful of sweets, and headed out. It had been several days since she last visited Lu Xiangxiang. She wanted to test the waters; the last time Shen Xiaobin left, he had mentioned wanting to propose before the New Year, and it was the perfect opportunity for her to check the situation. If Uncle Guai and Aunt Juying were also interested, she would need to find time to rummage through the space for the gifts to be offered, especially the grain. Every family was short of food, but her own space was overflowing with it. It was the perfect chance for her to take some out.
After the New Year, when she started working in the county town, she would need to sell some of it and grow her own business. She planned to make Ning County her stronghold before expanding outward and establishing her own business empire...
Shen Meng, leading Ming Fang, was engrossed in envisioning how she would overcome obstacles and triumph in the business world, completely unstoppable, when she nearly twisted her ankle without paying attention.
"Mom, what happened, are you okay?"
"I’m fine, I was just daydreaming about something nice and didn’t watch my step on a clump of earth."
Ming Fang didn’t understand and chuckled twice. Holding Shen Meng’s hand, she bounced and skipped along, herself slipping and nearly twisting her ankle too, but Shen Meng, with quick reflexes, caught her in time.
"Be careful, watch your step when walking, don’t fall."
"Being with Mom, I feel so happy, it’s like living the dream, and I almost twisted my ankle too."
Shen Meng was taken aback for a moment, then gently rubbed Ming Fang’s cheek. Children always love to imitate adults.
As the mother and daughter were heading to Lu Xiangxiang’s house, they suddenly heard a commotion. Shen Meng’s eyebrows slightly furrowed; the voices sounded familiar. She walked closer with Ming Fang in tow.
"I’m telling you, don’t bring your son to look for me again. I don’t recognize him, and you, stop putting on a facade. When you were laying hands on Daya and Xiao Ya before, did you remember you were their father? Now that you need me, you start thinking about being their dad. What did your parents say back then? They disowned my daughters, calling them money-losing goods. When Xiao Ya was born, your heartless mother nearly drowned her in the urine pot, and several times she tried to throw her into the ditch. If I hadn’t been vigilant, Xiao Ya would have lost her life long ago. I’m telling you, if you come looking for them again, I’ll go to the village chief, the Secretary, and Director Guo."
"Shirley, look at you, a husband and wife for a day means a bond for a hundred days. We’ve been husband and wife for so many years. What grudge can’t be resolved overnight? No matter what, I’m still Daya and Xiao Ya’s dad. Even if you argue till you’re blue in the face, nobody can stop me from being good to my daughters. When they grow up and get married, they’ll still need to call me ’father-in-law.’ Hey, let me tell you, stop badmouthing me in front of my daughters. All I want now is to be close to them."
Yu Xueli was shaking with rage. Lai Zi had been trying to see Daya and Xiao Ya without her knowledge. Daya, being older, knew better and would ignore him every time, even running away when he approached. But Xiao Ya was different; she didn’t understand, and even though she was afraid because of past beatings and scoldings, she knew that he was her father and would sometimes respond.
Her poor daughter almost perished at the hands of the inhumane Xu Family. Now their reputation in Lu Family Village had become unbearable, no one was willing to marry into their family. Even Liu Suqin was now ignoring Lai Zi. Their family had descended into chaos, and without her toiling as their mule, they finally realized how many chores there were at home. Now that no one wants to marry into their family, they suddenly remember her worth and think of playing the sentiment card. Bah, all of it is dog shit.
"Xu Daqiang, you’re trash, a beast, a waste, a maggot from a dung pit. With someone like you, you deserve a broken family, without sons or daughters. My Daya and Xiao Ya do not acknowledge you. Just wait, one day your beloved son will detest you thoroughly too."
Originally, Lai Zi was leaning against the wall with his arms crossed, his leg shaking, but hearing Yu Xueli speak to him this way, his face twisted in anger, and his cheek muscles twitched.
"You damn woman, I showed you kindness and this is how you speak to me? Don’t think that just because you cozy up to Lu Changhong I won’t lay a finger on you. I’m a man, and even if I beat you to death today, who would dare say a word against me?"
Huh???
Shen Meng’s mouth fell open. Yu Xueli and Lu Chang Hong??? When did this happen? Why didn’t she know???
