56: Chapter 57: Rebellion?_1 56: Chapter 57: Rebellion?_1 Qiao Duo’er felt sorry for the two girls and served each of them another piece, then coquettishly complained, “Isn’t the pork I cooked delicious?”
She had used Gold Sauce for the dish, which was made with two spoonfuls of wine, three of vinegar, three of soy sauce, and four of sugar.
Er Ya said softly, “No, Auntie Er’s cooking is the best!”
But… eating at was a rare treat, how could she have the heart to eat so much?
“If it’s delicious, eat more.
It won’t taste as good by evening,” Qiao Duo’er said with a smile.
However, despite her words, the two girls were still very restrained.
They had only eaten half of their al when a barrage of curses erupted from the courtyard.
The voice was unmistakably Tan Zhengyuan’s.
“Are all of you dead?
What ti is it, and you still don’t know to cook?
All so lazy!
I must have been damned for eight lifetis to co across you lot!”
Tan Zhengyuan swore and cursed in the courtyard, fuming with anger.
He had co ho for a al only to find no one around and even the pot was still cold!
Didn’t they know he was coming back to eat?
Were they deliberately not cooking?
Da Ya said weakly, “Mom, dad’s back.”
Hu’s Clan clenched her teeth, “Ignore him!”
Other people were gossiping about the sordid affairs between Tan Zhengyuan and Widow Xu; she wasn’t foolish and had long been aware.
Without a doubt, he had gone to that woman again this morning, huh, and he still had the cheek to co back for a al?
Pfft, she wouldn’t serve him!
Da Ya and Er Ya lowered their heads to eat, and although they were still gnawing on the bones, their mood had deteriorated significantly.
After Tan Zhengyuan shouted for a long while and no one answered, he went to find Fourth Boss’s room, as the two girls and Fourth Boss’s wife got along well, they must be there.
And indeed, Hu’s Clan was there too.
Seeing the three of them eating, with shiny red pork in their bowls, made his mood even worse.
What, they treated him like he was dead!
“All three of you bitches deaf?
I’ve been calling for half an eternity and no one answers!” Tan Zhengyuan said angrily.
Hu’s Clan put down her chopsticks and snorted lightly, “Didn’t that Vixen offer you a al?”
Tan Zhengyuan surely went to help that woman with chores during the day, as he lazed around like a lord at ho but was all too diligent in soone else’s.
Thinking of the grievances she had endured over the years made Hu’s Clan even angrier.
“You, you dare to spout nonsense?
What Vixen?” Tan Zhengyuan clenched his fists, wishing he could give Hu’s Clan a beating.
Was this a matter to be talked about brazenly?
He had always feared others would find out about being dunked in a pig cage, yet he couldn’t stand a day without going there, his mind filled with Widow Xu’s coquettish ways.
So every day he struggled with the decision of whether or not to go, but the end result was always the sa — that he went again.
Hu’s Clan said furiously, “Who in the village doesn’t know by now?
If you like that woman who’s always flirting with n so much, then why don’t you just go live with her?”
Just like Qiao Duo had said, she could support her daughter on her own; why should she and her daughter have to endure Tan Zhengyuan’s moods every day?
“Can you watch your words?
She’s nothing like what you say!” Tan Zhengyuan’s forehead throbbed with prominent veins as he spoke with fiery temperant.
Now, he was like a boy caught in the throes of passionate love, how could he allow anyone to insult his beloved?
Hu’s Clan glared at Tan Zhengyuan, “Can’t even curse at her?”
“You should look in the mirror; are you even qualified to scold her?
She’s a lot better than you!
You can’t even bear a son, and now you dare talk back to ?
Are you rebelling?”
Tan Zhengyuan reached out to grab Hu’s Clan, prepared to drag the insubordinate woman back to give her a good thrashing.
But today, Hu’s Clan was livid; she wouldn’t let him have his way.
