Chapter 590 - : Gentle Persuasion

Chapter 590: Chapter 590: Gentle Persuasion

Seeing this, Tong Xingda yelled, “Only when faced with a crisis, do we see which son can be relied upon. What the hell use are you two as a couple?”

“The eldest son and his wife have been managing the business the entire time. But what about you two? You’ve been around for almost twenty years. What have you done for this family?”

“You haven’t done a damn thing but cause embarrassment, yet you dare to raise your voice at me – pretty cocky of you!”

As Tong Xingda’s voice grew louder, he turned to Tong San Lang, “San Lang, beat him for me! A good beating will straighten him out!”

He was busy eating meat and could not get up.

Tong San Lang stood up as he heard the word and walked over to Tong Er Lang. Seeing Tong Er Lang subtly shrink back, he shook his head lightly, grabbed Tong Er Lang’s arm and said, “Second brother, let’s walk outside.”

“What are you doing?” Tong Er Lang, akin to being stung by a scorpion, fiercely broke his grip and stepped back several steps.

Tong San Lang, seeing this, furrowed his brows, forcibly grabbed Tong Er Lang’s arm, and pulled him out of the house.

Tong Er Lang screamed and struggled all the way.

Qiao Xiaomai watched this scene and lowered her head to continue gnawing on her bone.

Tong Tiehu looked at her and somewhat embarrassedly said, “I spoiled him at an early age.”

Truth to be told, he was not a good father or grandfather. He was simple and brutal in his deeds, and he didn’t do a good job teaching either Tong Xingda or his sons. Only Tong San Lang turned out alright, but the credit should go to Deng Chun.

These fools pulling stupid stunts now had really tarnished his reputation.

Upon hearing this, Qiao Xiaomai smiled, dimples showing on her cheeks, “They’re not bad at heart.”

At her words, Tong Tiehu sighed, “I am wrong in my judgement.”

When it came to choosing wives for himself or his sons and grandsons, he only chose the women who seemed better than the Tong family and had a good reputation.

But now, the reality told him, these women were all wearing masks in the past.

“Things will improve.” said Qiao Xiaomai.

Tong Tiehu sighed again at her words.

Improve?

Even if things do get better, thinking about the recent incidents would always leave a sour taste. These memories could never be erased.

It’s probably best to separate the households early, so these people will not continue to harm Qiao Xiaomai and Tong San Lang.

The courtyard fell silent. Li Rou, sitting at her doorway, and Qian Shi, similarly sitting under a tree, seemed not to hear the conversation between Qiao Xiaomai and Tong Tiehu. They were eating the meat cooked by Qiao Xiaomai and couldn’t voice their thoughts.

After a while, just as Qiao Xiaomai finished gnawing the bones in her bowl and was ready to drink some meat soup, Tong San Lang and Tong Er Lang returned together.

Tong San Lang looked calm.

Tong Er Lang was deflated, but his face showed no signs of having been beaten. Passing by the door and seeing the bowl he had broken earlier, he squatted down to pick up the pieces.

After throwing the pieces away, he returned to the kitchen, got a bowl, and continued eating.

Thus, the meal ended rather peacefully.

After dinner, Tong San Lang went to do the dishes and then to heat the water.

After both he and Qiao Xiaomai had bathed, it was still early. The two of them usually had a secret rendezvous late at night. At this hour, of course, they didn’t feel sleepy.

But the outrageous activities of last night couldn’t go on. According to Qiao Xiaomai, they had to abstain for at least another week before resuming this pleasurable activity.

Tong San Lang “…”

He had just tasted the sweetness, but because his own body couldn’t handle it, he had to abstain…

If this got out, he’d be so embarrassed that he’d want to crawl into a hole.

It was a huge blow to a man’s pride!
