From Folly to Fortune：I Rewrite My Life After Rebirth!

Chapter 546: Chapter 542: Preventing Her from Entering the Door (Part 1)

”Those two old farts, once I’m better, I’ll make two holes in their asses too!” Mu Danian said angrily.

”Yeah, yeah, let’s finish off those two old geezers.” Chen Hong nodded.

Then, leaning next to Mu Danian, she whimpered, ”Danian, I’ve left those two old guys. You need to take care of me, or I’ll starve to death.”

As she spoke, Chen Hong gently pounded Mu Danian’s chest with her hand.

With that pound, Mu Danian’s mind wandered to that thing, and he hugged Chen Hong, moving his mouth closer.

An overwhelming garlic smell wafted over, almost making Chen Hong vomit.

These past few days, Mu Danian lay sprawled on the bed, poorly cared for by the family, with no one to help him.

Chen Hong blocked Mu Danian with her hand: ”Your behind is in that state, focus on healing first. Once you’re healed, you can do whatever you want!”

After saying this, she didn’t forget to throw a flirty glance at Mu Danian, melting his heart.

”Little minx, always full of tricks. Don’t worry, I’ll talk to my parents myself. No one in this house dares kick you out!”

Outside, Mu Dazhong happened to be nearby and heard faint voices coming from Mu Danian’s room.

And it sounded like a woman.

Mu Dazhong drooled instantly and leaned against the door to listen for sounds he hoped to hear.

Suddenly—

The door creaked open, and Mu Dazhong lost his balance, crashing into Mu Danian’s room.

Chen Hong opened the door and saw a chubby figure appear. Frightened, she ran to Mu Danian’s side.

Mu Danian took a closer look and saw it was his second brother. He comforted Chen Hong, ”Chen Hong, don’t be scared. He’s my second brother; quickly call him brother!”

Chen Hong, hearing this, understood Mu Danian’s intention to acknowledge her, and sweetly called him brother.

This call of brother almost made Mu Dazhong collapse.

Everyone in this area knew about Chen Hong’s reputation.

But nobody could deny that Chen Hong looked pretty, especially her chest—

Though the skin on her face wasn’t great, don’t men just appreciate a good chest?

Mu Dazhong stared at the water balloons on Chen Hong’s chest, unable to move his gaze for a while. Mu Danian noticed this and felt particularly proud.

”Fifth, how long has it been since you’ve found yourself a wife? Dad was still thinking about it earlier,” Mu Dazhong consciously tried to instigate trouble between Mu Danian and Mr. Mu.

”What’s he worried about?”

”Worried about finding you a wife, of course. Not lying, but I really don’t want that girl from the Huang Family as my daughter-in-law, she’s no good at all. But the parents’ wishes are clear. What can I do about it? Do you have any good ideas?”

Mu Dazhong was playing the sympathy card in front of Mu Danian.

”What good ideas do I have? I’ve already found a wife. Da Lang can marry whoever he wants; I don’t care anymore.”

Mu Danian said casually, his eyes darting around quickly.

Now that his big brother has become a scholar, there’s no need for him to join forces with the second household.

Anyway, his brother living a good life doesn’t mean he’ll bring the second household along.

”Fifth, do you really not care?” Mu Dazhong was shocked, unable to believe his plans could crumble so easily.

”Why should I care? If anyone should care, it should be you and my second sister-in-law. I already told my second sister-in-law last time that the girl from the Huang Family has nothing to do with me, as I’m going to marry Chen Hong.”

After finishing, Mu Danian said to Mu Dazhong: ”Second brother, if there’s no problem, hurry back. I’m still not feeling well.”

Mu Dazhong left angrily, not forgetting to take a few more glances at Chen Hong’s chest before leaving.

Once Mu Dazhong left, Chen Hong asked about the matter.

Mu Danian explained the story to Chen Hong, and she angrily sat down on Mu Danian’s couch, ”Your parents really don’t regard you at all, giving the girl they promised to you to your nephew!”

Chen Hong never was the easy-going type, and previously played humble only because she wasn’t sure if Mu Danian would take her in.

She didn’t necessarily have to stick with Mu Danian; there were plenty of men in the world. Who cares whom she follows?

But now she was sure Mu Danian needed her.

”Exactly, Honghong, this will be troublesome for you. Play however you want; make sure my parents see how formidable you are.”

Back when Chen Hong was in Old Wang’s family, she had the Wang Tiejiang couple wrapped around her finger. If she hadn’t been sold out by them later, they wouldn’t have been able to handle her even now.

Having Chen Hong around is meant to show his parents who’s the boss.

”Rest assured, with me here, that niece-in-law won’t get in the door of your family!” Chen Hong promised.

...

...

Mu Dazhong was frustrated and felt increasingly upset back home. Not only did Fifth refuse to help him, but he even dared to mock him.

Want to marry Chen Hong, do you? I’ll make sure you can’t.

Mu Dazhong pinched his own arm, pain causing his hair to stand, and quickly dashed into the main room, shouting to Old Mrs. Mu.

”Mom, it’s bad, it’s bad...”

Old Mrs. Mu spat a thick glob onto Mu Dazhong’s face and cursed loudly, ”What are you yelling about? Is a ghost chasing you or what?”

Mu Dazhong wiped the spit from his face and replied: ”Mom, Fifth has gone mad; he wants to marry that widow Chen Hong from Tie Dao Village.”

Afraid Old Mrs. Mu didn’t know Chen Hong’s reputation, Mu Dazhong added: ”She’s the one whom everyone shunned; last time, she was caught with our village’s Sanwazi, and his wife almost beat her up!”

Chen Hong has a lot of bad history; any random tale could keep her busy.

”What did you say? Fifth wants to marry that floozy?”

Old Mrs. Mu was, of course, aware of Chen Hong.

Everybody knew she was the widow from Wang the blacksmith’s house. People used to laugh, saying that fox would eventually leave Old Wang’s house and bring trouble elsewhere.

At that time, they speculated whose family she’d bring trouble to next.

Now that it landed on Old Mrs. Mu’s head, how could she not be furious?

”Exactly, Fifth even told that floozy to call me second brother, but I didn’t agree. Our family has produced a scholar like Big Brother, who will eventually be an official. If word got out that Fifth married such a person, who would want to associate with our family?”

Old Mrs. Mu rolled up her sleeves, angrily stating: ”Follow this old hag to meet that little demon; I need to see what kind of trick she can pull in front of me.”

”Mom, are we just going like this? What about Dad?” Mu Dazhong finally noticed that Mr. Mu was absent from the main room.

”Why do you care about your dad? We’re going to find that woman now and make her leave our home!”

Mu Dazhong suddenly felt a bit nervous.

This matter still required his dad to intervene.

Mr. Mu wasn’t in the room because he was busy entertaining villagers who came by to watch the commotion in the courtyard.

The villagers, knowing Mu Dade had become a scholar, brought gifts to Mr. Mu’s home.

”Old man, congratulations, congratulations! Dade has really made you proud this time!”
