The arrogant little husband is desperately flirting with the hunter

When the villagers of Anning Village heard that Chu Xiao’s price for beans was 10% higher than that of the grain shops in the county town, they immediately felt that the dark clouds pressing down on their heads were blown away a lot.

Although the price is only 10% higher and not as high as in previous years, some families have a lot of dry land, several acres at a time, so it's good to earn a few more copper coins.

They are all farmers who rely on the crops from the fields for their livelihood, and many men are really worried that they will finish half a month's worth of tobacco in one night.

And I heard that the beans would be harvested and taken to the provincial capital to be sold. For the villagers, that was definitely a symbol of courage and ability.

Hunter Yan is really amazing and capable. Even in winter he is still thinking about how to add some income to his family. He is not like those men who lie on the kang all day long and act like masters in winter, only caring about their own comfort and not considering their families at all.

The women and husbands in the village praised Yan Zhenshen while also criticizing their own idle men.

Because of this, several families in the village had quarrels. After all, few men could tolerate being looked down upon by their wives.

I heard the women selling beans were talking about which family had a fight. The man in this family had his face scratched, and the wife in that family had her face swollen.

Chu Xiao was filled with sighs after hearing this. It should have been a good thing for him to offer a higher price than the grain shop, but why did it seem like he was doing something that backfired?

Yan Zhenshen said that it was good. An aunt brought beans and peanuts and paid for them. Chu Xiao came over and asked, "They are definitely free to fight."

"Yeah." Yan Zhenshen nodded. Seeing that there were still people queuing up behind him, he didn't want to be too blatant so he leaned closer to Chu Xiao's ear and said, "So I can't let my husband be too idle. Otherwise, what if he wants to beat me up?"

Chu Xiao raised his eyes and glared at him, "You are so big and you say such things, don't you feel ashamed?"

Yan Zhenshen shrugged indifferently, admitting that he didn't think there was anything wrong with his husband being more capable than him. Besides, the more capable his husband was, the safer he would be, and he didn't need to keep a close eye on him all the time.

The villagers were originally discussing a fight between a couple in the village, but when they looked up and saw Yan Zhenshen and Chu Xiao whispering in each other's ears with a smile on their faces, the discussion immediately changed.

"Hunter Yan and Brother Chu already have a child, but they are still as affectionate as when they first got married."

Another aunt followed up, "Oh, this couple has such a good relationship, unlike my husband and wife, who disliked me for being fat after I gave birth to my first child. Isn't this funny? Everyone says I am fat, but he is blind."

The topic went off track once it was brought up. The man who was working hard to move things heard his wife ridiculing him in front of outsiders, and his face darkened.

However, it is said that one should teach his son in front of others and his wife behind their backs. If they really quarrel in front of outsiders, it would be embarrassing for them. They can only pretend that they heard nothing and talk about it when they get back.

The Yan family spent several days collecting beans and mountain products, and spent a lot of money.

The Yan family is rich, very rich. If they can make some more money this time in the provincial capital, they can become a landlord.

There are no landlords in the villages near Anning Village. Every household lives a similar life. Even if a family is richer, they only have enough food and clothing. As for how much money they have in their pockets, of course they don't have any.

But in some places farther away from the county town, the land of some entire villages is the private property of a wealthy landlord, and the farmers there are so-called tenants or farmhands hired by the landlord.

The villagers kept discussing how much money the Yan family had. Some people thought it would be good if the village could produce a wealthy family, as the villagers might be able to help out when they needed help.

But more people are jealous, especially the poorest families in the village. They have been looked down upon in the past, and many people have given them cold eyes and made sarcastic remarks. Now that they have transformed themselves and are better than anyone else, won’t they look down on them in return?

At this moment, the villagers closed their doors and were talking about all kinds of things. Some of them were cursing and feeling unwilling, and their jealousy towards the Yan hunter family was beyond recognition.

Among these people was Uncle Yan Zhengxing, who got furious and smashed his water cup just because his wife said that his fourth brother and his wife were blessed.

Aunt Yan Wu, feeling distressed, yelled at him, "Yan Zhengxing, have you made a lot of money or something? Why are you breaking something? Do you know how much this porcelain cup costs?"

Yan Zhengxing is a stubborn person. No matter whether he is right or wrong, as long as he thinks others are wrong, no matter how hard you try to reason with him, it will be useless. The best way to deal with him is to fight back and scold him, so that he will be scared and stop.

His son said many times that he had offended such a capable relative from his fourth uncle's family. If he had been on good terms with them, given their personalities, they would definitely take good care of their family.

Not to mention anything else, Yan Zhenshen would hunt game in the mountains and send some over from time to time. But now, even though the price of beans sold by other people is much higher than that of the grain store, they are too embarrassed to go there.

Seeing his son's dejected look, Yan Zhengxing said nothing. Although he was the father, his son was grown up now and didn't take him seriously. If he spoke louder, he would be yelled back.

The son and his wife were of the same mind. He made more mistakes the more he talked. Without arguing about anything, he went downstairs and left the house, walking outside dejectedly.

But there are always those who are blind and want to come over and say: "Yan Laowu, your family planted a lot of peanuts and beans this year, did your fourth brother give you a better price for them?"

"What the hell? I sold my mixed beans a long time ago." Yan Zhengxing said unhappily.

"You didn't sell it to the grain shop, did you? That's a pity. Your fourth brother's price is 10% higher than the grain shop's. Your family grows a lot, so you'll have to sell it for less than 100 taels of silver."

"It's just bad luck. You said the price of rice has gone up this year, but before I could be happy, I found out that the price of beans is so low. Families with a lot of dry land this year are afraid that they will not have a good New Year."

"But your fourth brother is really rich now. I went to sell mixed beans yesterday, and they collected more than ten taels of silver in the afternoon. You said they have been collecting for three or four days, so it must be more than a hundred taels."

"I heard that they can make a lot of money by selling them in the capital. Maybe they can make another 100 or 80 taels of silver in one trip. We work hard all year round and can only save 3 or 5 taels of silver by tightening our belts. Your nephew is really capable."

The man kept praising Yan Laosi's family in front of Yan Zhengxing, and his face became darker and uglier.

"Whether he is rich or not is none of my business." Yan Zhengxing said unhappily, "Yan Zhengdao almost killed me back then. His family is so prosperous that it can only be attributed to God's ignorance."

"To harm you?" The man sneered, "You are the only one who thinks so. Your eldest sister-in-law secretly told others that your eldest brother sprained his ankle on purpose. And when your father was sick, it was your fourth brother who took care of him and didn't replace you. When your father died, it was your eldest sister-in-law who arranged for the division of the family. She went to Lijia Village because she was afraid of being criticized. But when you came back, instead of going to your eldest brother to make trouble, you kept picking on your fourth brother."
