A Happy Event in a Farming Family: Marrying a Hunter

Yunlu sighed, "Earning money is not easy. I've worked myself to the bone, and I haven't even earned ten taels of silver."

Sure enough, all those extravagant spending sprees in TV dramas are complete nonsense!

Yunlu suddenly had a bold idea, "Brother Qin, how about we buy another hundred eggs?"

"Okay!" The man replied without hesitation.

Yunlu was taken aback. She herself was a little unsure. What if the people here didn't like the food? Brother Qin had such courage.

Qin Zheng seemed to have read her mind and explained, "As you said, fifty diggers only cost about half a dollar to make a small profit. Adding a hundred would make a bigger profit. Besides, I have confidence in what you can make!"

"to make."

The two got right to work and went to the village to collect another hundred eggs. People who met Qin Zheng on the way were all stunned, wondering why he bought so many eggs.

The villagers were very curious about the Qin family's affairs, so they followed him home to see if he had become rich or gone mad.

Looking at it this way, it's quite shocking. Those two silly couples were rolling eggs in the mud and putting them in a jar.

The group of people looked at each other in bewilderment. Wasn't this just wasting eggs?

Someone couldn't help but say, "Qin Zheng, Yun Luo is being silly! Don't be silly! After doing this to the eggs, are they still edible? Won't they be ruined?"

Not one, not ten, but a full one hundred!

"That's right, an egg costs two coins! What were you thinking? Even if you're spoiling your wife, this isn't how you spoil her!"

Qin Zheng seemed not to hear, and carried the jar into the house. When the woman saw that he wasn't there, she became bolder, "Xiao Luo, have you bewitched Qin Zheng? A grown man, without any opinions of his own, listening to women, this family will be ruined sooner or later!"

Yunlu rolled her eyes and stretched. "Auntie, if you're so capable, why don't you get your husband to pamper you too? My husband pampers me, and I can do whatever I want, and I'm happy to!"

"You...you didn't listen to the elders, and now you're suffering the consequences. Let's go!"

A group of women stormed off, while Yun Luo was in high spirits, humming a little tune as she finished, not forgetting to praise her man, "My man, how could he be an ordinary person? Only you lot don't know what's good for you!"

After she finished speaking, she turned around, and Qin Zheng was standing right behind her.

She was startled and plopped down on the stool, her face slightly flushed. "Brother Qin, when did you arrive? I didn't hear you."

"Just arrived."

"So you heard everything?"

Qin Zheng's gaze was unfathomably deep as he calmly asked, "What did you hear?"

Yunlu breathed a sigh of relief, "It's nothing, it's nothing..."

I hope you didn't hear it.

To everyone's surprise, Qin Zheng curled his lips as if to laugh, but he tried his best to hold it back, "The music is very beautiful."

Yunluo, "..."

Look, didn't you hear me? Is this what it means to not hear?

You listened to everything!

"Xiao Luo?"

"Huh?" Yun Luo stared at the man who was staring straight at her, her heart pounding a little. "Wh...what's wrong?"

"Come closer?"

Yun Luo was even more surprised and stood still. Qin Zheng shook his head, reached out, and gently stroked her with his fingers. Yun Luo's heart was in complete turmoil.

Her mind was a complete mess as she tried to decipher Qin's meaning, but then she noticed him withdraw his hand, his fingers dusty. "Your face is dirty!"

"Thank you!" Yunlu said guiltily.

"You bitch, get out here!" A fierce and vicious curse broke the tranquility, and with a loud "bang," the door shattered into pieces.

The man who came in was Qin Dazhuang, wearing a jacket that revealed his muscular build. Behind him were several burly men, each holding a stick, looking exactly like they were about to ransack the house.

At the very back of them, Zhu Cuihong and her son Zheng Youcai dragged Liu Mei through the door. Zheng Youcai cursed under his breath and kicked Liu Mei in the buttocks, causing her to stumble and fall.

"Xiao Mei!" Yun Luo, despite the pain in her foot, quickly caught her.

Liu Mei was trembling all over, with not a single part of her body unscathed; clearly, she had been brutally beaten.

"Zheng Youcai, are you even a man? How can you beat your own wife like this?" Yun Luo said sternly.

To his surprise, the other party's attitude was nonchalant, and he scoffed, "You dare to say that? Qin Zheng, you'd better keep a close eye on your women. Those two aren't doing anything good. My woman has been acting like a scoundrel behind my back, and your woman beat someone up!"

"I do not have……"

"You still dare to say that? They've already come knocking on our door!"

Yunluo probably already knew what had happened. Qin Dazhuang had come to cause trouble, and the Zheng family wouldn't listen to Xiaomei's explanation; they were sure they thought she and Qin Dazhuang had something going on.

It's disgusting. They all have the surname Qin, yet they're so different.

Yunlu patted Liu Mei on the back to reassure her before saying, "What nonsense are you talking about? Who did you hit? How come I don't know?"

"You bitch, you... ah..." Qin Dazhuang tried to speak, but Qin Zheng grabbed his hand tightly.

His face was as cold as frost, and a low-pressure atmosphere emanated from him. "Speak properly!"

"Let go..."

Qin Zheng didn't move.

Qin Dazhuang was furious. He had been crippled by that bitch Yun Luo and could no longer be a man. And now her man was bullying him. Did she really think he was a pushover?

He glanced at his men and gave them a signal; they then charged forward with sticks in hand.

"Brother Qin..."

A gasp escaped, followed by the sound of the wooden pipe snapping in two. Yun Luo clapped her hands with delight, "Brother Qin is amazing!"

"You... Qin Zheng, don't go too far!"

Qin Zheng had no intention of paying him any attention. His knuckles cracked, and he seemed to be ready to play along with anyone else.

His reputation is known far and wide; he was a soldier, fought in wars, and killed people—his hands are stained with blood.

The group of men dared not move.

"Aunt Zheng, why do you listen to outsiders instead of your own daughter-in-law? What nonsense are you talking about? As the mother-in-law, why are you smearing your own son's reputation? Are you proud that your son is being cuckolded?"

Zhu Cuihong, usually eloquent, was rendered speechless by the retort, "They've come knocking on our door..."

“These days, there are plenty of people who try to extort money. Look, he even falsely accused me of hitting him. How could I, a weak woman, possibly beat this big guy? Brother, what’s your name? Tell me, where did I hit you? Give me a straight answer and I’ll pay up.”

Why bother reasoning with this kind of scoundrel? If he's still not convinced, just beat him up. If he's still not convinced, then he hasn't been beaten into submission.

Qin Dazhuang was speechless for a moment. He was a grown man with dignity. How could he say that he had been ruined by a woman and was no longer capable? Wouldn't that make him a laughingstock?

"I……"

"What do you mean, 'what'? Where's your wound? Show it to everyone!"

"Dazhuang, don't hide it anymore, show your wound, otherwise it'll look like we're bullying you!" the others chimed in.

Qin Dazhuang was speechless for a moment, "No!"

Yunlu laughed, "Did you hear that? I knew it! That day, when I was with Xiaomei, we ran into you at the chicken farm and I accidentally kicked you. We've already apologized to you, what more do you want?"
