Chapter 351 - 351: Bullying Us Since My Man Is Not At Home?
It was much easier to wash the snails that had been raised for many days already. After washing a bucket of snails, she placed them on the small stove and stewed them.
Originally, she wanted to burn the snails in the pot and bring her mother to the shop to take a look. Later on, she felt that this was too dangerous, so she gave up on the idea.
There was no one at home. What if the soup in the pot simmered and caused a fire?
Thinking of this, Li Xiaoran simply told her mother to stay at home and look after the pot. She went to the shop to inform everyone to come over for snail noodles tonight.
Zhao Xiu knew that someone had to stay at home to keep watch, so she nodded and let her daughter go to the shop alone.
Not long after she walked out, Big Yellow ran out.
“Hey, Big Yellow, are you going out for a walk with me today?” Li Xiaoran squatted down and patted Big Yellow’s head with a smile.
Big Yellow nodded and got up to rub against Li Xiaoran’s pants again, as if begging Li Xiaoran to bring it along.
“If you leave, how can the pups at home protect the family?” Li Xiaoran asked again.
Big Yellow barked twice, indicating that it could. Then, it barked at the house.
Soon, Blackie ran out of the house.
Big Yellow barked at Blackie, as if giving instructions. Blackie leaned down and nodded, then turned and left.
After that, Big Yellow came to Li Xiaoran’s side and looked at her with its round eyes, as if to say that they could leave now.
Li Xiaoran smiled and nodded as she patted Big Yellow’s head.
“Alright, let’s go! Big Yellow, listen to me when you get to the shop later. Don’t bite anyone. There are many people there. Be good when you get to the shop!”
Big Yellow nodded and walked towards the shop with Li Xiaoran.
At this moment, laborers were everywhere in the wilderness.
Spring was the most important season, so every family came out to farm.
Of course, there were some exceptions, such as the Li family.
To be honest, the Li family’s land couldn’t compare to the land beside it.
Other people’s fields were cleared of weeds and they were gathering beans.
The Li family’s land was overgrown with weeds and the weeds were very dense.
When the person working in the field saw Li Xiaoran passing by with Big Yellow, he smiled and teased, “Xiaoran, look at these pieces of land. Without your father taking care of them, these pieces of land look so desolate. It’s a pity that these pieces of land are so barren.”
When Li Xiaoran heard this, she ignored him.
Because the person who said this didn’t have any good intentions.
Li Xiaoran knew this person. He was from the most stingy family in the village.
If someone they had never interacted with before suddenly said such a thing, he definitely had ill intentions!
Despite seeing that Li Xiaoran was ignoring him, that person didn’t stop talking. Instead, he said maliciously, “This land is barren anyway. Why don’t you ask your father to come back and farm it? This way, it won’t be a waste of the land! Farmers like us really can’t stand to see others not planting crops in such good land!”
When Li Xiaoran heard this, she turned to look at the man who spoke.
“I remember your name is Yang Lu! Firstly, this land doesn’t belong to my family, so it has nothing to do with our family. If you really feel that it’s a pity, you can rent the land from the Li family. I believe the Li family will be willing to accept this offer.”
“Secondly, my father has land to farm and even hired people to farm. Therefore, thank you for your kindness, but you should focus on your own land! After all, your family’s land depends on you to farm. You can’t even afford to hire people!”
“Thirdly, don’t think that I’m easy to bully just because I’m young. You clearly have ill intentions. Don’t think that everyone in this world is stupider than you and can be controlled by you. If you’re so capable, why don’t you become an emperor and control the entire dynasty?!”
“There’s no need to wait. I’m here now! What do you have against my wife? If you have any objections, feel free to tell me. After all, I’m her man!” At this moment, a voice came from afar.
When Li Xiaoran heard this voice, her face was filled with surprise. She turned around and ran towards Luo Cheng.
“Husband, you’re back?”
Seeing Li Xiaoran running towards him, Luo Cheng felt a sense of wholesomeness.
Stretching out his arm, Luo Cheng welcomed his lover with a smile.
Seeing the two of them hugging, the people around them started discussing.
However, the two people who had reunited after a short separation ignored their discussions as they hugged each other. “Husband, it’s good that you’re back!”
Luo Cheng nodded and hugged Li Xiaoran tightly.
“Ahem, please be mindful of PDA!” At this moment, Luo Han’s voice came from behind Luo Cheng.
Luo Cheng realized something and glanced at the people around him. Then, he snorted. “I’m hugging my wife. What has it got to do with others?! If anyone has any objections, I’ll go to their house to chat with them tonight!”
As soon as he said this, the surrounding people immediately shut up and pretended to be focused on their work.
Li Xiaoran also came back to her senses. Thinking of her actions just now, she immediately blushed.
After escaping from Luo Cheng’s arms, Li Xiaoran said in a low voice, “I still have to go to the shop to inform everyone to come to our house to eat snail noodles tonight!”
When Luo Cheng heard Li Xiaoran’s words, he nodded. “Alright, go now! With Big Yellow following you, nothing will happen to you! Luo Han and I will go back and rest first!”
Li Xiaoran nodded, then called Big Yellow and quickly walked towards the shop.
After Li Xiaoran left, the smile on Luo Cheng’s face disappeared. Then, he walked straight towards the man with ill intentions.
“Yang Lu, right?! You seem to care a lot about this piece of land! How about this? I can help you make to trip to the Li family’s home and express your willingness to rent the land. I’m the grandson-in-law of the Li family after all, so I have to help my relatives! Their lives aren’t easy, so as a junior, I’m naturally concerned about them! Give them 50 kilograms of food a year as rent!” Luo Cheng stared at the other party as he said with a smile..
