Chapter 594: Chapter 595 Going along with soone’s little wife_1
Mr. Zhao said angrily with embarrassnt, “Mrs. Li, don’t make a fool of yourself in front of others. If you want to buy, then hurry up and choose. Don’t joke with
like this.”
He had always put up with Mrs. Li’s indecency, but now, in front of Muniang, he really felt like he was being humiliated in front of his daughter.
But Mrs. Li leaned closer to Mr. Zhao and teased with a smile, “Old Zhao, what are you talking about? With the relationship between us, do you think I’m joking? You know what I an!” With that, she even poked Mr. Zhao’s body with her finger.
Mr. Zhao’s face turned red as he shouted, “I don’t know! Mrs. Li, if you keep this up, I will really lose my temper. We’re neighbors and it’s fine to take it as a joke on usual days, but saying such things in public, I still care about my face!”
Mrs. Li was so angry that she glared at him and said, “Hey Old Zhao, how can you be so dense? I’ve made myself perfectly clear, and you still don’t get it?”
She then lowered her voice and said, “My husband has been dead for a long ti, and he left behind several stores. If things work out between us, you would be the man of the house!”
The offer sounded very tempting, but Mr. Zhao exploded with anger, “Do you really want
to turn against you? Do I look like the kind of man who lives off a woman? I have no interest in how many stores there are! Mrs. Li, from now on you had better not co to my store to buy things. I can’t entertain a custor like you!”
Mrs. Li, with her eyes wide and hands on her hips, cursed, “Well, look at you acting all high and mighty! What’s wrong with , Li Qin? After all, what are you but a widower? What kind of woman do you think you can find?”
Mr. Zhao didn’t even want to reason with her and started to drive her away, but who knew that Mrs. Li would simply point at Muniang and say, “Or could it be that you’re looking for soone like her? Ha, I really can’t tell. A man of your age, and you’re still thinking of getting together with a young wife, truly unafraid of making a fool of yourself!”
Mrs. Li had a particularly loud voice, and as she argued, passersby on the street could hear everything and gathered around to watch the commotion.
Angry, with his face red and neck thick, Mr. Zhao cursed on the spot, “I’ve thus far spared you because you’re a woman and I didn’t want to argue with you, but you keep provoking
ti and again, you shaless shrew. It’s one thing to ruin my reputation, but how dare you tarnish others’ as well? Do you really think I’m so easy to bully?”
Mrs. Li, now feeling shaless in front of Mr. Zhao and already at her wit’s end, didn’t fear the crowd on the street and shouted, “What now? You want to hit ? What’s wrong with speaking the truth? If there is nothing going on, why would you invite a lady into your house? I see, there may be sothing fishy! Go ahead and hit
if you want, let everyone see clearly, you’re just feeling guilty and now you want to lash out at ······”
Before Mrs. Li could finish her sentence, she was suddenly pulled with great force and stumbled backward, falling onto the ground with her rear, which nearly split into eight pieces from the pain. She yelped and opened her mouth to scold, “Who is the shaless bastard daring to drag ?!”
But what she saw was a face gazing down at her with a dark, penetrating presence, like the fearso ghost from the underworld, chilling her with just a glance, and she shut her mouth, trembling.
Yu Ze snorted coldly, “If you spout any more nonsense, I’ll tear your tongue out right now.”
Scared half to death, Mrs. Li spoke in a trembling voice, “You, you, how dare you… this is…”
Yu Ze’s eyes narrowed, “See if I dare!”
Mrs. Li instantly turned pale with fright, clenching her mouth shut. If soone else had made such a ruthless vow, she certainly wouldn’t have taken it seriously, but the man in front of her was too terrifying. Just one look from him was enough to make her extrely cautious, and her intuition told her he would indeed dare.
Muniang ran out cheerfully, “My husband, have you co back?”
Seeing Muniang brightened Yu Ze’s mood just a bit, “I’ve just arrived, my mother said you were out, so I ca to see, returning after a few days only to witness such a scene, you really don’t let
worry less.”
Mr. Zhao’s heart tightened upon hearing this, thinking Yu Ze would bla Muniang for what had happened earlier. Considering his frightening deanor from before, Mr. Zhao really feared that he might physically lash out at Muniang and was about to explain, but then he saw Muniang, all smiles, pulling Yu Ze’s arm toward the shop, “It’s just a trivial matter, that woman was simply too foul-mouthed, and it’s good that you’re here, saves
the trouble.”
Yu Ze smiled warmly and pinched Muniang’s cheek, “You’ve gotten a bit plumper.”
Muniang glared and said discontentedly, “I’ve been slimming down!”
Mr. Zhao felt a wave of embarrassnt, realizing he had overthought the situation, this man who was like a demon a mont ago, changed his expression too quickly for his liking.
“Oh right, I haven’t introduced you two yet, this is Mr. Zhao, my mother’s family has been friends with Mr. Zhao’s family from way back, and now we’ve finally t, our families have beco quite familiar with each other,” Muniang then turned to Mr. Zhao and said, “Mr. Zhao, this is my husband, he just got back today.”
Mr. Zhao, still not fully recovered from the imnse aura Yu Ze emanated earlier, managed a sheepish smile, “Pleased to et you.”
Yu Ze nodded slightly, “Mr. Zhao.”
Muniang, who had been planning to stay a bit longer, now couldn’t resist the desire to spend so alone ti with Yu Ze and ask about how he had been during these days, so she decided to take her leave directly, “Then we’ll be going now. Oh, and Mr. Zhao, tomorrow I’ll send soone to take you to Chatu Town, you can have a look at the goods on your mountain; the person will negotiate the price with you. I won’t stay long today; another day we’ll visit.”
After what had happened, Mr. Zhao felt quite guilty and did not dare to ask them to stay, not wanting to get in the way of the couple’s reunion after a long separation, he quickly said, “Sure, sure, go ahead, I will definitely co to your door to apologize another day.”
Muniang waved her hand, “It’s nothing serious, it’s not Mr. Zhao’s fault anyway, but if Mr. Zhao does want to visit our place, I would still welco you.” With that, she even gave a sly wink.
Mr. Zhao chuckled, “You little rascal.”
Muniang didn’t forget Madam Liu’s request, and said, “Next ti rember to bring Jianghe and Jiangshui along, you’ve been in Qinghua City for quite so ti now and our family still hasn’t properly invited you over for a al. Let’s get together in a few days, it’s more convenient now that my husband is back too.”
With Yu Ze not around earlier, not having a man of the house to invite n over for a al was sowhat improper, Muniang didn’t mind, but Mrs. Lin did, so they had kept postponing it, but now the timing was perfect.
Given Tianniu’s temperant, Muniang decided not to tell Mr. Zhao about the matchmaking plans. Otherwise, if Tianniu wasn’t happy about it, it would put Mr. Zhao in an awkward position. It’s better to just have a simple al together, and if Tianniu shows interest, then it will be an easier conversation to have.
Mr. Zhao naturally had no objections and agreed right away.
Once Muniang and Yu Ze had left the shop, Yu Ze glanced at Muniang, “What are you scheming now?”
