The Happy Farmer Wanderer-Chapter 226 Rumors are More Fearsome than Tigers_1
This time, Li Qing was really taking it slow.
While doing so, he even regretted that his movements had been a bit too forceful before.
Outside, the sound of the rain was torrential, as if heaven were pouring water down.
Inside, it felt more like a slow-motion movie.
After going at it slowly once, Yang Xuelan wasn’t showing any sign of calling it quits.
This time, Li Qing had a solid excuse and declined, claiming he couldn’t do it anymore.
Yang Xuelan didn’t beg anymore, but she didn’t leave either, instead, she continued to lie in Li Qing’s quilt.
Li Qing smiled helplessly, this woman was simply a walking contradiction.
Sometimes, she was so indecisive as if she could tie herself in knots.
But like today, she seemed more liberal than anyone.
Even with all of Li Qing’s excuses, she tempted him in all kinds of positions.
By late morning, the rain finally let up a bit.
This downpour seemed to have washed away the entire summer’s heat.
The salty, damp scent of soil, wafting through the open window, was invigorating to the senses.
It was as if the earth had been renewed, and even the green rooftops were scrubbed clean.
"The rain has stopped, I need to go," said Yang Xuelan, glancing out the window before crawling out of the quilt, standing naked in front of Li Qing, hands on hips, striking a pose, she asked, "Do I look good?"
Li Qing didn’t quite understand what act Yang Xuelan was putting on now.
He looked her up and down carefully, then finally nodded, "Your buttocks are full, these two are also big enough, and the bottom is very moist."
"I’m asking if I look good, not for you to describe that, you’re so annoying!" Yang Xuelan chided with a shy frown, then put on her clothes, "I wanted you to take a good look because after having a baby, my figure is bound to change."
"That’s not necessarily true," Li Qing laughed.
He remembered Teacher Guan.
After having a child, her figure didn’t just stay intact, it became even more curvaceous.
"I’m off!"
Yang Xuelan called out, her face glowing with a post-moisture radiance, as she swayed her hips and left Li Qing’s house.
Li Qing leaned on the windowsill, gazing at the distant mountains shrouded in misty rain, feeling somewhat dazed.
After so many times, this was the first time his mind wandered off while doing it.
Although Yang Xuelan had made it quite clear, her purpose in doing this was to have a child.
But if the child turned out to be like him, what then?
If it really came down to it, he might indeed have to take his sister-in-law and Tian Yue’e and head somewhere else to live.
That way... well... it seemed not too bad.
In a place where no one knew them, his sister-in-law and Tian Yue’e would surely let their guard down.
Thinking this through, Li Qing’s furrowed brows gradually smoothed out.
The rain had completely stopped.
A magnificent rainbow stretched across the mountaintop.
That mountain led into Shanglin Village.
Those who lived under the rainbow.
Li Qing looked up for a while, then broke into a wide smile.
After the downpour, plenty of mud and leaves had washed into the yard.
Li Qing was cleaning up the yard when Han Mei and Tian Yue’e came over together.
"Qingzi, would it be okay if I make you some mixed noodles for lunch?" Han Mei asked as she entered the kitchen.
"Anything’s fine!" Li Qing replied casually.
"It’s your last meal, and you don’t have any special requests?" Tian Yue’e teased with a chuckle.
Li Qing was taken aback, "What do you mean ’last meal’?"
What’s with today? Everything feels so odd.
Yang Xuelan almost scared him to death just now, and now Tian Yue’e is saying something else.
She couldn’t be pregnant too, could she?
"Your sister-in-law will cook for me in the future, but not for you. Are you jealous?" Tian Yue’e gloated, twisting her waist and puckering her round, attractive buttocks at Li Qing.
"Why?" Li Qing asked, raising his hand and slapping Tian Yue’e’s buttocks.
"You’re already healed up, and it’s not appropriate for us two to be at your place every day, it leads to gossip. We can still do lunch at your place, but for dinner, either you eat by yourself, or you come over to my place. Anyway, you’ve been away frequently lately, so you decide based on your situation," Han Mei said indifferently.
"Sister-in-law, I’ve gotten used to this. If you don’t come over, I’ll starve," Li Qing said flirtatiously.
Han Mei looked at Li Qing in annoyance, "Don’t pull that act with me; the village is already talking."
"Who?" Li Qing demanded fiercely.
"Who else but that gossipmonger from Hu Youqing’s family!" Tian Yue’e snarled, with a hint of sarcasm.
"One of these days, I’ll tear her mouth apart. I’m not even married; even if I proudly claimed that you had your way with me, what can they do to me? They all have to shut up!"
"The man’s unmarried, the woman’s unwed, and there’s even a young, delicate widow. So what if we sleep together? It’s not like we’re having an affair!"
Han Mei angrily threw a green onion at her, rebuking, "Your mouth is beyond saving, spouting such nonsense!"
"How is that nonsense? There used to be a custom where widows would end up with their brothers-in-law, and no one talked then," Tian Yue’e muttered.
"As for me, it’s simple. I’m a pure maiden, for heaven’s sake! It’s infuriating!"
Listening to this, Li Qing felt a surge of frustration.
But there was really nothing he could do.
Rumors are fiercer than tigers; you just can’t stifle them.
He silently resigned himself to the fact that Han Mei and Tian Yue’e would no longer come over in the evenings.
Right after lunch, an unfamiliar phone call came in.
Li Qing answered and found out it was from the performance troupe.
The caller quoted two thousand for three days of singing, and Li Qing agreed.
The festivities in Sifang Village were ending in just one day; after arranging things with the caller, Li Qing hung up.
"Qingzi, what are you spending this money for?" Tian Yue’e asked, "If you really have too much to spend, give some to me. I’ll clean up nice and do things for you every day."
Han Mei coughed lightly, throwing an annoyed glance at Tian Yue’e.
"Oh, someone’s jealous, huh? Then you give me the money secretly, and I’ll do things for you secretly. I have some particularly enticing clothes at my place, the kind big city folks like to play with; I’ll wear them privately for you," Tian Yue’e whispered.
Han Mei rolled her eyes in exasperation, pinching Tian Yue’e hard on the soft flesh of her waist.
"Alright, alright, I won’t say it anymore," Tian Yue’e pleaded, giving Li Qing a covert look.
Li Qing watched with amusement, his interest genuinely piqued.
The first time he and Tian Yue’e were intimate, she had made a similar offer.
But he had yet to see her wear such clothes, and Li Qing was extremely curious about what they were like, and how enticing they could be. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺
Seeing that the two women had stopped arguing, Li Qing finally spoke up, "I might indeed be throwing this money down the drain, but it might also come in handy."
"I’m running for village head, and I also need to shut their mouths!"
