45 -46: Prey Delivered_1
Tan Zhengyong stammered, “They are the elders, it’s only proper that they don’t do anything.”
Ever since his parents stopped working after their sons grew up, she knew all too well about it.
Could it be that she still expected his parents to change?
“Proper my ass, look around, which old folks just sit at home waiting to be fed?
Which one doesn’t want to help their sons save a bit more money?”
Little Wang Clan was furious, her own mother was still working to this very day!
All the household chores now fell squarely on her, with no one else lending a hand!
Tan Zhengyong withdrew his neck a little, and Little Wang Clan got even more annoyed.
“Did I say something wrong?
After taking care of the young ones, I have to serve the old ones, too.
Your parents are just too lazy to live, if it weren’t for Fourth Boss, they wouldn’t have saved a penny!”
The more Little Wang Clan talked, the angrier she became.
She was just someone’s mother-in-law, but those who didn’t know might even think she had become a deity!
All they did was eat!
And expect to be served with their meals brought right up to them!
Plainly put, those two old things were just lazy, so lazy they could turn it into an art form!
Why wouldn’t they just die of laziness?
It would save her the trouble of tending to them day in and day out.
Tan Zhengyong quickly said, “Wife, don’t be angry, I’ll go cook!”
Having said that, Tan Zhengyong hurried out.
If he kept getting nagged like this, his head was going to explode.
Dividing the family was his wife’s idea, and now it was as she wished, but she complained about having too much household work.
After dividing the family, did she still expect someone else to help with the chores?
Did he have any stupid brothers?
Right after the division, everyone already felt uncomfortable about it, who would want to come over and work for nothing?
Little Wang Clan cursed a few more times before finally heading to the kitchen.
What kind of dinner could that fool Tan Zhengyong make?
Sigh, her life was truly hard.

Qiao Duo’er finished grinding the medicinal powder, and the fish soup in the pot had turned milky white.
She added salt to the soup, threw another handful of straw into the stove to keep the fire going, and brought it to a boil to let the fish absorb the flavors.
She ladled some soup into bowls, and she and Tan Zhenghong gnawed on steamed buns while having the fish soup.
Qiao Duo’er and Tan Zhenghong were both not much for words.
Without Sun Erhu to lighten the mood, the two of them quietly ate their meal.
Qiao Duo’er felt a bit down because she hadn’t considered her own appetite when making the buns.
One bun wasn’t enough to fill her up, but two were more than she could handle.
While she was still debating whether to eat another one, Tan Zhenghong tore a bun in half and handed half to her.
“Eat some more,” Tan Zhenghong said indifferently.
Qiao Duo’er nodded her head and quickly ate up half the bun.
The remaining soup was kept warm on the stove, with two buns left over for Sun Erhu when he returned.
Qiao Duo’er couldn’t wait to take a bath, and then applied the medicinal powder she had prepared onto her face.
She had just put the paste on her face when Sun Erhu returned.
His haul for the day included two wild rabbits and a pheasant.
Without giving it much thought, he brought all his game to Qiao Duo’er.
As a rough and burly man with a big appetite, he couldn’t just eat at someone else’s house every day without contributing, could he?
However, Qiao Duo’er firmly refused, “Please take it back, you’ve only been eating here for a few days.”
Sun Erhu had just brought over a pheasant a couple of days ago and often helped Tan Zhenghong make baskets; how could she accept more from him?
She wasn’t like the Tan Family; she disliked taking advantage of others the most.
“How much help did Brother Hong give me in the past?
Now that Brother Hong is in a tough spot, shouldn’t I bring something over for him to nourish himself?”
Sun Erhu declared carefreely.
Having lost his parents at a young age, he had followed Tan Zhenghong around since childhood.
If it weren’t for his Brother Hong, he would have been bullied to death long ago.
