After Marrying Him, the Ending Has Changed-Chapter 139 - : I Want to Go Back and Tell Mom
Chapter 139: Chapter 139: I Want to Go Back and Tell Mom
“Let’s keep walking and hide behind some bushes around the bend in front,” Mianmian said.
Jiang Changhai, however, didn’t think it was the patrol team. He wanted to see who was following him.
Sun Lixia couldn’t see anyone and was afraid she’d lose them, so she hurried along and just as she rounded the corner, she was startled by Jiang Changhai who suddenly jumped out at her.
“Roar!”
“Ahhhh!!!”
Caught off guard, Sun Lixia was so frightened that she sat down on the ground, buttocks first. As soon as she realized it was Sun Changhai, she cursed loudly, “Big Brother, are you sick?! Don’t you know you can scare someone to death?!”
...
Jiang Changhai crossed his arms, “Third Sister-in-law, what are you doing following us?”
Sun Lixia’s face flashed with guilt as she got caught red-handed: “Who, who’s following you? This road isn’t dug by you; can’t I take a stroll?”
As she spoke, she grew emboldened, standing up with a disgruntled look and brushing off the dust on her clothes.
Jiang Changhai found her thick-skinned response amusing, “Fine, let’s say you were just taking a stroll. But broad daylight and you’re not doing chores at home, sneaking around instead—I should tell mom that you’re slacking off and not doing your work.”
Sun Lixia’s eyes widened in an instant, “You—don’t, don’t, don’t, Big Brother, I’m going back right now.”
She had wanted to ask if he was man enough, but seeing him lift his foot to head back, and remembering the creative tongue-lashings her mother-in-law could dish out without repeating a word for half an hour, she had no choice but to compromise and back off.
Jiang Changhai raised an eyebrow, saying unapologetically, “Then get going already.”
Forced by the tyranny of her mother-in-law, Sun Lixia could only grit her teeth and reluctantly turn to leave.
Next time, she would definitely be more careful when following them!
Watching her departing figure, Su Wanyu shook her head, “Laosan’s wife is really too cunning, always trying to take advantage of others.”

The wife of the second brother was much easier to get along with, honest and kind-hearted.
“Never mind her, no one can take advantage of us anyway,” Jiang Changhai also didn’t like the superficial Third Sister-in-law, wondering what on earth was in Laosan’s mind when he married her.

After dropping Jiang Mianmian off at school, the three of them harvested over a hundred pounds of melon seeds in the morning and went to Old Man Ge’s house.
With the experience from the day before and one more person helping out, they worked much faster than yesterday.
In just half a day, they had roasted over a hundred pounds of melon seeds.
Looking at the three big bags of seeds, Su Wanyu asked with some worry, “Are we roasting too many?”
Jiang Changhai also slightly furrowed his brow, “It does seem a bit much. With only so many people at the movie theater, we’re afraid we can’t sell this many.”
Upon hearing this, Buddy Yu was about to speak when he heard Changhai continue, “Here’s what we’ll do: I’ll borrow a tricycle from Old Niu, and tonight Wanyu and I will go to the neighboring two towns to sell. Buddy Yu, you stay and sell in our town. Thirty to forty pounds per town—surely we can sell them all that way.”
“That’s a great idea, Brother Hai, how come you’re so smart!” Su Wanyu clapped her hands in approval upon hearing this, routinely praising her man.
What Jiang Changhai proposed was exactly what Yu Cheng had in mind, so he didn’t offer any further suggestions but just nodded in agreement.
Jiang Changhai certainly hadn’t forgotten his precious daughter, taking out two dollars, “Buddy Yu, your aunt and I will come back late tonight. You go and pick up Mianmian from school, take her to the state-run restaurant for dinner, and then have her wait at Old Man Zheng’s place at the gate. When we’re done selling the seeds, we’ll pick her up and take her home.”
“Uncle Jiang, I have money,” Yu Cheng said, refusing to take the money, as he had enough to afford a meal.
