The Husband I Snatched Is Not Right!-Chapter 146: Even I’m Getting Dragged Into This
At noon, the meals appeared in the kitchen right on time.
Back in Xilin Village, we used to have just two meals a day, breakfast and dinner. But after moving to a new home in Ze County, it changed to three meals a day.
And herbal meals... five in total.
Including a serving of candied fruit and pastries before dinner, and bird’s nest soup with milk before bed.
Following the principle of eating less but more often.
At first, Yu Tingwan felt it was quite extravagant.
But... she found herself enjoying it the most.
She wasn’t in a hurry to serve it.
Yu Tingwan ran out to the courtyard to scatter some rice and add some water for the hungry crow in the corner.
The crow squawked loudly, "Caiying."
"I’m devoted to you!"
Yu Tingwan heard it.
The crow truly adored Matchmaker Liu, calling out to her every now and then.
She poked it with a blank face.
"Ungrateful creature, I’m the one feeding you."
Just then, Yu Tingwan heard the voice of Mr. Zhao next door.
Mr. Zhao was rushing home, urgently asking.
"I heard some people saying they saw the White Tiger raised by General Wei coming towards our alley. I’m not sure if it’s true, is everything okay with you?"
Lady Zhao came out from the house with her daughter who just woke up.
"What White Tiger? I didn’t see it."
"That’s good then."
Mr. Zhao said, "That White Tiger is quite temperamental, but if you encounter it, don’t panic."
Avoid it, don’t provoke it, then it won’t harm you.
Lady Zhao wasn’t afraid, waving her hand: "What’s the big deal? I’d love for it to come to our house."
After all, if Fu Meng goes out, there’s always someone secretly following him. They step in when he causes trouble.
"The Zhao Family in the west of the city got into a big mess, causing a lot of chaos, but they didn’t get injured, and the compensation from the Wei Family Army was quite generous."
She wasn’t talking nonsense. The Zhao Family’s quite prosperous now.
When she went grocery shopping in the morning, she saw the Zhao Family’s daughter-in-law. The golden hairpin on her head was so shiny.
Mr. Zhao: ...
He had rushed back from the academy, and seeing everything at home was fine, he prepared to return to the study to grab some books before heading out.
But just after he entered the study, he had to come out again.
"Nannan!"
"Why are you up to mischief again? Writing and drawing on Dad’s wall!"
The crow pecked a grain of rice, stretching its neck.
"If a child is not taught, it is the father’s fault."
Yu Tingwan: ...
Who knew you’d recite the Three Character Classic?
Yu Tingwan fed the crow as Fu Meng saw it.
He naturally assumed Yu Tingwan was preparing some for him too.
The young woman brought out the dishes from the kitchen and saw Fu Meng jump on the chair, proudly waiting at the dining table.
She set the dishes and went to help Wei Zhao off the couch.
Fu Meng waited patiently. He waited till Yu Tingwan served Wei Zhao a bowl of rice.
That’s how it should be!
Everything should start with the master first!
He continued to wait.
Watching Yu Tingwan serve another bowl with wide eyes.
He isn’t fond of eating, but he’s willing to let Yu Tingwan have a chance to curry favor.
Then...
The young woman sat down and took a bite herself.
Fu Meng: ?
He couldn’t believe it, he wasn’t included!
If Wei Zhao hadn’t cast him a bland glance, he would’ve flipped the table.
The meals these days were all bland, but today there was a plate of roasted rabbit, crispy on the outside and tender inside.
The taste was considerably good.
Yu Tingwan was quite pleased.
Her eyes nearly curved into crescents.
Wei Zhao watched and said nothing, quietly sipping his soup.
Yu Tingwan was chewing on a roasted rabbit leg when she noticed a deadly stare.
Finishing the rabbit leg, she went for another bite.
The deadly stare remained.
Yu Tingwan swallowed her meat.
"Did I offend it?"
Wei Zhao: "Is there a possibility..."
He said wistfully, "That you’re eating its meat."
Yu Tingwan let out a sound of realization.
Fu Meng: !!
Realized your mistake, huh!
Why aren’t you apologizing to it!
Yu Tingwan specifically looked at Fu Meng, whose gaze was about to shoot fire.
"What should I do?"
The young woman spoke in a delicate voice, "It tastes even better."
Fu Meng was so furious he pointed at Yu Tingwan in front of Wei Zhao, slamming his palms together.
Yu Tingwan: "What’s that supposed to mean?"
Wei Zhao said slowly, "It’s asking if it can slap you into a meat pancake."
Fu Meng lifted his head proudly.
That’s exactly what he said!
So what!
He dares to say what he likes.
Then the young woman stood up, walked over, and expressionlessly gave him a punch.
Fu Meng: !!!
Second time!
He wanted to eat her!
Chew her to pieces!
Just as the thought crossed his mind, Fu Meng was about to jump up.
Then...
He saw Yu Tingwan punch Wei Zhao as well.
Fu Meng: ???
This Yu Tingwan is dead meat!
Last time someone laid a hand on his master, they suffered horribly.
Fu Meng waited to watch the drama unfold.
Wei Zhao didn’t resist.
Instead, he glanced at Fu Meng.
"Go reflect on your mistakes."
Fu Meng was shocked: ???
Wei Zhao said wistfully, "You’ve dragged me into trouble too."
————
Right after finishing the meal, Yu Tingwan took the dishes back to the kitchen.
Someone would come to tidy up later.
But she had no time to be idle.
Someone outside was banging on the door quite aggressively.
"Mrs. Wei! Come out!"
"Have the guts not to hide from me!"
Yu Tingwan was baffled.
She thought for a moment, smeared her face with ash, then walked over to open the door, facing Liu Yan’s distraught face.
She frowned.
The young woman wasn’t pleased.
"You’re disturbing my husband’s rest."
"You dare say that to me!"
Liu Yan’s hands were shaking.
"The man you introduced me to, isn’t he regretful?"
God knows when she went with great expectations, she was dumbfounded when she saw the person.
She hadn’t recovered even after a stick of incense had burned.
Yu Tingwan: "What’s wrong."
Seeing Liu Yan’s face look grim, Yu Tingwan asked, "Did he not like you?"
"It’s normal. After all, such a handsome man surely has many pursuing him."
The consoled Liu Yan: ???
She was almost amused by anger.
But Yu Tingwan’s words were so sincere.
It gave Liu Yan the illusion that maybe she had the wrong person.
But that couldn’t be.
Afraid of misunderstanding Yu Tingwan, she had even gone around to ask!
The butcher was the only son, capable of handling the shop alone and never hiring help.
Liu Yan questioned, "Do you know what you’re talking about?"
Yu Tingwan nodded.
Liu Yan thought she didn’t know.
One wanted to prove Liu Yan was being unreasonable, deliberately provocative.
The other wanted to prove Yu Tingwan was spewing nonsense, causing harm.
They both headed towards the street.
Not even acercanos to the butcher shop yet, just at the turn of the street.
They saw from afar the butcher with a full beard, carrying half a pig.
Liu Yan’s breathing quickened: "Take a good look!"
"Do you dare say what you said before again!"
"Is he good-looking?"
Yu Tingwan responded without hesitation: "Good-looking! Seems strong at first sight."
Yu Tingwan turned her head: "You’re not satisfied?"
Liu Yan sneered.
Yu Tingwan was puzzled: "These things need mutual affection. I didn’t matchmake, nor did I arrange for you two to meet, so why are you taking it out on me?"
Liu Yan didn’t listen to any of this, scoffing: "I know you. Your life’s not going well, with your man sick and about to die, you’ll soon be a widow, it’s normal to bear a grudge."
Those words, Yu Tingwan didn’t like to hear.
She replied calmly, "I don’t know if my life is good, but at least I got myself married."
Liu Yan: ???
Yu Tingwan: "Sorry about that."
Liu Yan: ...
Too late! Apologies won’t do!
The young woman’s voice was soft and gentle: "Hope I didn’t upset you."
This little mouth is like it’s poisoned!
