Chapter 327: She Will Throw Herself into Someone’s Arms
“Of course, I can’t control your chatter, you’re allowed to discuss, but don’t let Xiaomai hear it. Everyone knows she’s pretty straightforward, and if a conflict arises, I’ll handle it fairly.”
“Also, the lesson for all of us here is, don’t act impulsively in any situation. We farmers aren’t well-off, if anything goes slightly wrong, it could drag the whole family down.”
“Remember, remember this, we aren’t rich, whatever problems arise, settle them peacefully without resorting to physical means whenever possible.”
Tong Tiehu sighed and waved his massive hand, “Alright, break it up.”
After saying this, the crowd went back to their homes in small groups.
Of course, there were a lot of discussions, mainly expressing theirstuns. Even if there were different opinions, they could only grumble internally.
Tong Tiehu was very explicit earlier, no discussions.
At least, not at this time.
The crowd that left included Qiao Qinghe and Qiao Changfu and Zhu Cuiying.
After this incident, Qiao Qinghe’s face was stiff, without any expression.
Shocked expressions were on the faces of Qiao Changfu and Zhu Cuiying. This couple was mean but only blatantly so, like snatching things or making sarcastic remarks, setting fire to wheat fields, causing others to break their legs, this kind of thing – they didn’t have the guts.
Oh gosh, that’s scary!
Putting it that way, they’re complete law-abiding citizens!
They clutch their hearts in fear and head home with a face full of aftershock.
Soon the threshing floor was left with only a few people. Qiao Xiaomai looked at Tong Tiehu, with a grateful smile on her small face, “Thankyou, Grandpa Tong.”
“It’s my duty.” As the village chief, it’s his job to handle such things.
Besides, he knows about Tong Sanlang’s nightly outings too.
Even if he didn’t ask, he had observed it long ago.
Moreover, Tong Sanlang has also proposed to increase wages, not even married yet and he’s thinking about pouring out his whole family fortune.
Tsk.
“Grandpa, can Qiao Zhaodi and her sister stay at our new house first? There’s no room at Miss Qiao’s house.” Tong Sanlang asked at the side.
Tong Tiehu glanced at him at these words, the question was asked as if he didn’t really want an answer.
Sigh, one can’t serve a grown grandson.
“Let them.”
“Thankyou, Grandpa Tong!” Qiao Xiaomai quickly thanked again.
“Just send more tasty food over in the future.” Tong Tiehu turned around and walked towards his home.
“Sure thing!” Qiao Xiaomai replied loudly.
Then she turned to Tong Sanlang, “Come to my house with lunch boxes in the evening.”
“Okay, if there’s anything, let Dami find me. I’ll go and tidy up the room for the sisters.” Tong Sanlang nodded, giving her a deep look.
He wished they could be together all the time.
He sighed in his heart and walked over to catch up with Tong Tiehu.
Qiao Xiaomai watched his tall silhouette as he left, and she too was lingering by his side. She turned to Zhaodi and Yindi “Let’s go, let’s go pack up a bit and move over to Tong’s new house.”
The afternoon passed in a hustle and bustle. There are many rooms in Tong family’s new house. The sisters selected one, cleaned it up a bit and Qiao Xiaomai brought some rice and flour so they could cook for themselves.
In the evening, she cooked many dishes. Tong Sanlang came over with two large food boxes. The two didn’t talk much, but their glances were stuck together like glue, unwilling to move away.
After a few hard hours, at midnight, Tong Sanlang arrived on time.
Qiao Xiaomai pulled him back into the room, and the two huddled together to discuss the construction of the manor.
They talked about what had happened over the past few days.
Of course, she occasionally mixed in sweet nothings and gave him a cuddle.
They held hands and embraced.
They even licked.
Once such intimate actions have occurred, it’s only natural for them to happen again.
However, there’s a line in Tong Sanlang’s heart. He only holds hands and hugs, regarding actions like licking or wrapping his arms around her waist or rubbing against her shoulder, he has kept himself from doing any of them.
Yes, he’ll just sit there, Qiao Xiaomai will naturally throw herself into his arms.
