Chapter 778: That’s Because You’re Stupid

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

After Xiang Zhifu finished lecturing the children, he said to Chu Heng in embarrassment.

Chu Heng looked at Du Heng. “Uncle, Yanxu will teach the children. Don’t worry.”

“Young Master Du, I’ll have to trouble you this time… If you want some wood ears, we will sell you a portion in the future.”

“I wonder what Young Master Du likes to eat. I’ll prepare it for you tonight.” Xiang Zhifu did not reject Chu Heng’s advice. However, he was very polite to him. In addition to Ye Muyu’s words, Xiang Zhifu’s had a complicated feeling. He was even more unwilling to take advantage of Chu Heng, lest he owed him too much later on. If the other party wanted to repay him, he would be in a dilemma.

Du Heng was not surprised at all that the other party would say this. He had slowly understood the temperament of the Xiang family, so it was naturally easier to get along with them.

He smiled amiably. “Uncle, you’re welcome. I can eat anything except spicy food. Anything else is fine.”

“Then why don’t we make chicken soup tonight?” Xiang Zhifu asked tentatively.

“Alright.” Du Heng nodded lightly.

Xiang Zhifu heaved a sigh of relief and called the Xiang brothers to kill the chickens and prepare the vegetables.

It was getting late. In less than two hours, the sky would turn dark.

After Xiang Zhifu gave these instructions, he went to talk to Chu Xingjun.

“What’s wrong?” Chu Xingjun’s body felt a little better and she was busy preparing the pig grass.

Ling’er and her three daughters-in-law were there to bake the wood ears.

Xiang Zhifu lowered his voice and said, “Ah Heng just told me that the matter with Landlord Wang has been resolved. He’s really after him. I’m afraid Landlord Wang will come over to give gifts and apologize soon.”

“Tell me when he does come over. Then, I’ll decide if I want to accept the gift or not.”

“What?” Chu Xingjun was a little surprised by Chu Heng’s handling speed. “So fast? What’s the reason?”

“Ah Heng said that Landlord Wang of our village is actually a branch of the Wang family in the county, which means that they are related. The Eldest Young Master of the Wang family in the county fled to the village and hid, wanting to use Ah Heng to take revenge. That’s why this happened.”

“Now that the Wang family’s Eldest Young Master has already been captured by Ah Heng’s guards and brought to the county government, he can’t cause any trouble.”

“That’s good. This matter is over.” Chu Xingjun patted her chest.

“Then, do you think we should accept Wang Shichu’s gift?” Xiang Zhifu took a puff of his cigarette and asked with a frown.

Chu Xingjun muttered to herself, “If it were any other time, we would definitely not accept it. However, we must accept it this time. We will only accept the most worthless ones and end this matter. If we don’t accept them, Wang Shichu will keep coming to us and misunderstand that Ah Heng has not forgiven him.”

“Wait a minute… Honey, do you think Ah Heng gave us the right to make the decision because he knew this and wanted to see if we would forgive Wang Shichu?” Although Xiang Zhifu was not very smart, he understood the ways of the world.

Chu Xingjun’s words reminded him of this point.

“Ah Heng is too polite. If I didn’t think of this, I wouldn’t have understood what he meant.”

“That’s because you’re stupid.” Chu Xingjun rolled her eyes and did not stand on ceremony.

Xiang Zhifu choked. “Wife, don’t be so direct. I just didn’t think too much about it.”

“That’s why you have that silly girl, Ling’er.” As Chu Xingjun spoke, she pouted her lips and gestured at him.

Xiang Zhifu followed her line of sight and looked into the courtyard. He saw Xiang Ling’er come out of the kitchen with a pen and paper in her hands. She was sitting among a group of kids and listening to Du Heng teach her how to read.
