The Evil Man’s Lazy Lady Chapter 37 (Part 3)
Chapter 37: Toss Part 2 (3) Original translation is from tenderflower's blog.
“That’s right, even those of us outsiders feel sorry for him. You are a real aunt, you really have the heart to let him move to Shu Lan’s house? The child knows others will take good care of him, but he still wants to live with you. He cares about his blood relatives. You should calm down and live a good life with the child. Douzi is still young. When your daughters are married in the future, Xiao Lang can also take care of their sisters...”
Every word you said to me and I said to you was to persuade Zhang-shi to treat Xiao Lang better.
Zhang-shi was stunned on the spot. She couldn’t understand why they thought she had abused Xiao Lang just based on a few shouts from Xiao Lang. She lowered her head blankly but met Xiao Lang’s deep eyes. There was a cold light that made her tremble as if he would eat her at any time!
The icy chill spread up her spine and Zhang-shi only felt like her scalp was numb. At this time, she determined that Xiao Lang would definitely kill her, so she would never let Xiao Lang live in their house. Compared with her life, what was that reputation?
She forced herself to calm down. While quietly breaking away from Xiao Lang’s hand, she said to Qin-shi with a complicated expression: “Sister Qin, our family is poor. It’s better to leave Ah Lang for you to take care of, wait...”
At this time, a figure suddenly rushed out of the Xiao family’s yard, ran straight in front of Zhang-shi, and slapped her fiercely: “You wicked women whose conscience was eaten by dogs. How dare you abuse my nephew behind my back?! Not to mention robbing him of his money, you even dared to force him to go hunting in the mountain. Today, there’s fate and he came back. Otherwise, if something happens to him, see if I dare not divorce you!”
Xiao Shouyun glared angrily at his wife who was knocked to the ground by him, and looked back at Xiao Lang. As if provoked by his injury, he kicked Zhang-shi fiercely in the stomach, and then apologized to the surroundings: “My fellow villagers, I feel ashamed for my dead brother. I let this evil woman bully his only bone and blood for a moment of neglect. Please rest assured that as long as I Xiao Shouyun still have a bite to eat, I will never let my nephew work hard to earn money!”
For the most important reputation in the village, today’s affairs, no matter what the facts were, their family had to bear the blame. Since this was the case, it was better to pour all the sewage on his wife, and he could continue to be a good person.
No one expected Xiao Shouyun to come out like this and even Zhang-shi didn’t expect her husband to be so ruthless. In fact, she was used to taking the blame for her husband. Of course, in the past, Xiao Shouyun would win her in advance, but today, he beat her in front of so many people, and beat her in front of Qin-shi!
“I’ll fight you to death!” Zhang-shi shouted and stood up, pouncing on Xiao Shouyun like crazy.
Xiao Shouyun was a big man after all. How could he let her beat him in vain? He stretched out his hand and hugged Zhang-shi tightly, dragged her into the yard, and embarrassedly said to the surrounding villagers: “I’m sorry, I let everyone see such a joke. I’ll take care of this wicked woman! Ah Lang, come home, uncle will definitely seek justice for you!”
Xiao Lang lowered his head and followed behind him. He didn’t look at Qin-shi until he turned to close the door.
Qin-shi also looked at him with distressed and puzzled eyes. Behind her, Shu Maoting and her two daughters standing there. Shu Wan looked a little angry, but Shu Lan looked at him eagerly as if someone had snatched her apricots.
Xiao Lang’s heart tightened and he closed the door in a panic.
When he entered the yard, he didn’t bother to pay attention to the hypocritical Xiao Shouyun and the madwoman-like Zhang-shi. He ran directly back to the room that belonged to him temporarily. He closed the door and the quarrel outside the door immediately weakened. He stared at the unfamiliar roof and said sorry in his heart. No matter what, the Shu family must have been hurt by him.
Fortunately, he could go back tomorrow. No, tonight he could justifiably live in Shu’s house.
At dinner, Zhang-shi had calmed down. It was not that she was angry, but Xiao Shouyun’s words reminded her that Xiao Lang still hid a lot of money, and the most important thing at the moment was to get the money. As for Xiao Lang’s evil sect, she chose to ignore it for the time being. After all, if Xiao Lang really had the ability to harm her, he would have already done it. Why would he go hunting in the mountain and get hurt in vain?
“Mother, don’t you call Ah Lang to come out for dinner?” Cuihe looked at the closed door of the eastern room and said worriedly. She still remembered what Zhao Dalang said. He told her to be nice to Xiao Lang, but it was a pity the chickens were flying and dogs were jumping, there was no chance at all to get close to him.
Zhang-shi threw down her chopsticks, raised her head, and glared at her: “Are you blind? Do you see the food on the table is superfluous? If you really love him, then give him your share, something that he has no eyesight to see!”
Cuihe immediately lowered her head and didn’t dare to make a sound again.
Xiao Yongjiang and Xiao Shouyun continued to eat as usual, Lianhua pursed her lips and laughed in schadenfreude, Douzi looked around, and finally laughed like Lianhua.
Cuihe movement stopped, picked up the bowl, and went out to eat. There was only a piece of corn cake in the bowl.
Zhang-shi didn’t stop her. There were not many dishes on the table. If there was one less person, the others could eat more, although Cuihe didn’t dare to eat it.
After the meal, the others either went out to enjoy the shade or went to bed early. Cuihe took the half cake she had left behind and knocked on Xiao Lang’s door: “Ah Lang, the older sister has brought you dinner, open the door.” She thought to herself, Xiao Lang would be surprised when he came out to see only half a cake, and when she explained it softly, he would definitely be moved.
Xiao Lang put his hands behind his head and looked at the shadows of the trees outside the window. No matter what Cuihe said, he didn’t think he heard it.
