The Delicate Darling with Her Rough Man

Chapter 275: Chapter 271: Shouldn’t Be With a Barbarian

Yun Hao then looked over at Leng Yuan.

’This man is always expressionless,’ he thought. ’Even though he has a decent job, he’s all brute strength. If Gu Jiaojiao ever fought with him, he might even resort to domestic violence.’

A girl that beautiful and delicate should be cherished and pampered.

’Would Leng Yuan know how to pamper someone?’

Yun Hao simply couldn’t picture Leng Yuan doting on his wife.

He frowned heavily.

’I need to remind Gu Jiaojiao to seriously reconsider her relationship with Leng Yuan. If she could get a divorce, that would be for the best.’

’It might be a bit unethical, but Leng Yuan is completely unworthy of Gu Jiaojiao. Doing this would also be a way of honoring the love Gu Jiaojiao once had for me.’

At this thought, Yun Hao relaxed completely.

It wasn’t that he was being overconfident.

It was just that ever since Gu Jiaojiao arrived at the educated youth settlement, despite being willful, spoiled, and acting like a pampered heiress, she would always listen to whatever he said.

He was sure of it. All he had to do was ask, and Gu Jiaojiao would leave Leng Yuan without a second thought.

Having settled the matter of Gu Jiaojiao in his mind, a look of relaxed pleasure returned to Yun Hao’s face.

Hu Ziqiang, who was standing nearby, saw his expression and couldn’t help but comment.

”Looks like it’s all about Wen Wan. The moment she arrived, you brightened up.”

’And to think I’d assumed Yun Hao liked Gu Jiaojiao,’ he thought.

’Apparently, I was overthinking things.’

Yun Hao paused, startled. He followed Hu Ziqiang’s gaze and saw Xu Wenwan and her mother.

The village chief’s wife hadn’t bothered to queue up; she led Xu Wenwan straight to the front of the line.

With both of her sons helping out, there was no fear of them not getting a share of the pork.

Xu Wenwan clutched a basin, her eyes filled with longing as she stared at the pork carcass nearby.

’Since returning to this village, I’ve only eaten pork once—in a meat bun the System had given me.’

’Now, I understand just how precious food is. I also understand what an incredible luxury it is to eat meat.’

Xu Wenwan never thought she’d get so excited over a mere piece of pork.

’I’m a transmigrator, for crying out loud! What delicacy haven’t I eaten? What treasure haven’t I seen?’

’I have to stay composed.’

She forced herself to tear her eyes away from the wild boar and look elsewhere.

Her gaze landed on Gu Jiaojiao, and she frowned. ’What is Gu Jiaojiao doing here?’

’Remembering how Leng Yuan had foiled my last attempt to deal with Gu Jiaojiao, I’ve held back from making another move. Earning points from my missions is hard enough. I won’t act rashly unless I’m sure of a decisive blow.’

Sensing a dark gaze on her, Gu Jiaojiao turned around.

When she saw it was her cousin, Gu Jiaojiao raised an eyebrow.

Xu Wenwan, however, turned away with a disdainful snort.

Chen Xiumin...

She smacked Xu Wenwan on the back of the head, her voice laced with a warning.

”What are you snorting about? Behave yourself.”

At first, she had felt some pity for this daughter, even secretly boiling eggs for her that the rest of the family couldn’t afford to eat.

But lately, she’d noticed that her two daughters-in-law were growing resentful of her.

They didn’t say anything, of course, but they were nowhere near as affectionate as they used to be.

Chen Xiumin was a traditional village woman.

While she would never dream of mistreating her daughter for her sons’ sake, she still valued her sons more.

She had to rely on her sons and daughters-in-law to care for her in her old age. Now, because of her daughter, she was on the verge of alienating them. It made her take a hard look at herself.

She also realized that letting her daughter go on like this wasn’t an option; she needed to be disciplined properly.

Chen Xiumin’s smack was completely unexpected.

Xu Wenwan clutched her head, her face a mask of indignation.

”Mom, can you stop hitting me all the time?”

’These village people are so vulgar, always resorting to violence without a second thought. They’re completely unreasonable.’

Chen Xiumin was unfazed.

”Do I need to make an appointment to discipline my own daughter? You’d better be on your best behavior for the next couple of days, you hear me?”

This again.

Xu Wenwan was sick and tired of hearing those words, but she still mumbled a reluctant agreement.

’It wasn’t that I’m being obedient,’ she thought.

’It’s that if I don’t listen, she really won’t give me anything to eat.’

Going hungry for a whole day had taught her to behave.
