The Bully General's Spiritual Husband

Sitting on the cart, Yin Baicai felt very pleased with herself. She had really made a profit today. Didn't she see the vendor's pained expression when she left?

He deserved it; who told him to lie to me in the first place? He even tried to trick me into buying a sick cow.

The two quickly returned to the village. As soon as Yin Baicai got off the oxcart, villagers came to watch.

"Li E... kid, this cow of yours looks pretty good, how much do you want?" He said, patting the cow's head.

Yin Baicai: "Auntie, all cows are the same price, didn't you know that?"

The woman saw that Yin Baicai didn't want to talk about it and didn't bother to inquire further, but she figured it must cost a lot of money.

Yin Baicai was afraid that if she didn't say anything, the villagers would say that she and Li Zhe were showing off. After the incident where Tian Xiaoqiang came to her house to steal money, it was better to be on guard.

After all, the most difficult thing to distinguish is human nature.

Li Zhe helped Yin Baicai carry the things he bought to his house, and then took the cow to his own house.

Some villagers were envious, while others were jealous.

Ms. Chen, who had come over to watch, scoffed, "What's so great about it? I'll have my son buy one too tomorrow."

No one in the village talked to her anymore; with her stingy nature, how could she possibly afford a cow?

Besides, last time she tried to save money on medical treatment, she even caused her grandson to die.

Seeing that no one responded to her, Chen left in a huff.

He muttered to himself as he walked, "What's there to be proud of? He's repairing houses and buying cattle. If it weren't for Wutong Mountain in our village, Li Zhe wouldn't be able to make any money."

As soon as Chen opened the door, she saw Wan Ya sitting under the eaves, looking blank and expressionless. The bowl she had eaten lunch with when she left was still on the table.

Her anger exploded, and she yelled at Wan Ya, "You lazy bum! All you do is eat and not clean! You expect me to come back and do the laundry for you? Look how long it's been! You've ruined my grandson's life, and you still have the nerve to be lazy? Housework..."

When Wan Ya heard that Chen was blaming her for the child's death, she immediately became furious.

He suddenly stood up, pushed Chen, who was pointing her finger at him and cursing, to the ground, and punched her repeatedly.

He cried and hit her like a madman, shouting, "Give me back my child... Give me back my child..."

Hiding in the room, Li Ben listened to the noise outside, pulled the thin blanket over his head, and thought, "This is so annoying. My mother and Wan Ya have been arguing every day lately."

I went out to look for Liu Tao, but he wasn't home. I can't live like this anymore. He won't even let me sleep properly.

At this moment, Liu Tao was weeding in her own field, while Li Lin, whose field was next to hers, was exchanging flirtatious glances with Liu Tao while Liu Xiaolian wasn't paying attention!

Recently, Liu Tao has been entangled with Li Lin every day, so naturally she has no time to pay attention to Li Ben.

Besides, Li Ben is so stingy. They've been together for so long, and he's never given her a single penny.

It's Li Lin, a man a few years younger than me, who really knows how to care for people!

She had only been feeling better for a short time when she secretly bought herself a hairpin to hold her hair up; the design looked really nice.

Yesterday, I went to the river to wash clothes, and the village men praised me for it.

Liu Xiaolian found it strange that the widowed man in the village kept looking into his own field.

Does he intend to secretly harvest his own corn?

That lazy bum, I heard she's been hooking up with some guy in the village, she's really shameless.

The villagers all said he was unlucky, as he had caused her husband's death just one year after getting married.

I need to stay far away from him, lest I absorb his bad luck.

Seeing Liu Xiaolian looking at her with disdain, Liu Tao deliberately said, "Sister Lian, look how pretty this hairpin is! I heard it's a new one in town, and it costs quite a bit!"

When Li Lin, who was standing next to Liu Xiaolian, heard Liu Tao mention the hairpin in her hair, he panicked. What was this widow going to do? Was she going to reveal their affair?

Liu Tao naturally noticed Li Lin's nervousness. How could he not know? These stinky men were afraid that he would expose them.

This Liu Xiaolian dares to look down on me? Ha, your man has already climbed into my bed.

Liu Xiaolian watched Liu Tao showing off the hairpin in her hair. She had long admired this style and had been asking Li Lin to buy it for her.

He always said he had no money, but now Liu Tao had already bought it and was showing it off to him.

Liu Xiaolian said with a forced smile, "It looks good."

I felt contempt and disdain in my heart, but you don't deserve to wear it.

Seeing that she had achieved her goal of deliberately showing off and making Liu Xiaolian jealous, Liu Tao swayed her hips and left. As she left, she didn't forget to wink at Li Lin when Liu Xiaolian wasn't looking.

Liu Xiaolian cursed inwardly, "Shameless, still twisting her waist, isn't she afraid of breaking it?"

Li Lin was stunned by Liu Tao's flirtatious glances as she left.

A slight stirring in his heart—this alluring little devil, he'd "deal with" him later that night.

Yin Baicai had just moved in and put away the things she bought that day when Li Zhe arrived with Li Mo.

As soon as Li Mo saw Yin Baicai, she let go of Li Zhe's hand, ran over and hugged Yin Baicai's leg: "Mom, Mo Mo wants to sleep with you~"

"Okay, you can sleep at my house tonight." I smiled helplessly at this little clingy brat.

When Li Zhe saw that the person had been brought over, he said to Yin Baicai, "I'll leave the person to you. I'm going up the mountain to cut some grass for the cattle."

"Go ahead, and remember to come back for dinner later!"

As soon as Li Zhe stepped out of Yin Baicai's house, he was entangled by Tang Xiaoyan.

Tang Xiaoyan carried some homemade snacks in her hand and smiled, "Brother Li Zhe, thank you for saving me last time. This is a small token of my appreciation."

Li Zhe frowned as he looked at the person blocking his way. "No need."

Tang Xiaoyan paused for a moment after being rejected, then smiled and said, "Brother Li Zhe, are you looking down on this thing of mine?"

Her eyes drooped, tears welling up in her eyes: "I hope Brother Li Zhe won't find this offensive. It's all the little snacks I can offer that I made myself."

Li Zhe was in a bad mood. He had already said that it wasn't necessary, but this person still looked like she was about to cry, as if he had bullied her.

Hearing the commotion in the courtyard, Yin Baicai and Li Mo secretly peeked through the crack in the door.

Hey, isn't this the little girl I met by the river last time?

It's like you've become a completely different person now; you've got the subtle emotions down perfectly!

He speaks with a sharp edge when talking to himself, but why does he speak so softly and gently to Li the bully?

He even said he saved her; could it be that this scoundrel Li saw injustice and stepped in to help?

It seems like the woman is in love but the man isn't interested! I'll have to wait and see.

Speaking of which, this bully Li really has a lot of suitors. He just lost Liu Xiaoqing, and now he's got Tang Xiaoyan.

Li Zhe looked at Tang Xiaoyan blocking his way and said coldly, "Get out of the way."

Startled by Li Zhe's tone, Tang Xiaoyan awkwardly stepped aside.

Li Zhe strode straight past.

Watching Li Zhe walk away, Tang Xiaoyan bit her lip. This Brother Li is really clueless. She had come to thank him in person, and he still had this attitude.

If Yin Baicai knew, she would definitely tell her to learn more from Liu Xiaoqing, since Li the bully used to treat him the same way.

Tang Xiaoyan turned around and saw Yin Baicai and Li Mo peeking through the crack in the door. She glared at them.

He then picked up his belongings and left.

Yin Baicai was completely bewildered. She hadn't done anything, and besides, it was the bully Li who had rejected her. Why was she glaring at us?
