Farm Girl Turns Everything Around: Sly Husband, Let's Farm

“It will be too late once we’re done drinking. What about your niece and nephew?” Zhu Hongyun said, pointing to the two children beside Li Rou.

Just then, Li Rou got up and walked towards the ox cart to get water for the children.

Seeing this, Tong Sanlang hesitated.

Zhu Hongyun quickly added, “Children can’t stand being thirsty, you should take a trip back home.”

Tong Sanlang grunted in affirmation, thrust his spade into the ground, and started walking towards the ox cart.

Greatly pleased, Zhu Hongyun said, “Since you’re going back, why not make a trip to the Qiao Family? Qiao Xiaomai makes delicious Sour Plum Soup, you can ask her to make a pot.”

This presumptuous tone made Tong Sanlang pause. He looked at Zhu Hongyun, “She’s also quite busy. She doesn’t have any free time.”

“Hasn’t she sent us soup many times before? One more time won’t matter.”

“If she wants to send it, that’s her choice. It’s absolutely ridiculous for us to actively ask for it. How come my sister-in-law never visits her maternal home and asks them to send us some?” Tong Sanlang replied coldly.

Their house is quite nearby Zhu Hongyun’s maternal home.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Hongyun exclaimed, “The people at my maternal home don’t know how to make Sour Plum Soup.”

Tong Sanlang glanced at her stoically, turned his back, picked up his spade again, and continued weeding.

Seeing this, Zhu Hongyun softened her tone, “Alright, alright, we can pay for it, right? It’s not like we are asking for a free service. Didn’t you just sell the game you hunted yesterday? A pot of Sour Plum Soup doesn’t cost much, you should buy it.”

“Just look at the scorching sun, your grandparents are also getting on in years, it will be good for them to have some Sour Plum Soup to cool off.”

This time she didn’t only appeal using the children, she even brought up Tong Tiehu and Qian’s family.

Tong Sanlang lowered his head, continued his work, and ignored her.

“What’s the matter? You saved a lot of silver, and you just sold your game yesterday. Are you unwilling to buy a pot of Sour Plum Soup for our family?”

“If you want to drink it, let my second brother figure out a way.” Tong Sanlang quickened his pace.

“It’s not just me who wants to drink it, think about our whole family.”

Upon hearing this, Tong Sanlang looked up at the other members of the Tong family and, carrying his spade, walked towards them.

Seeing this, Zhu Hongyun stamped her foot and quickly followed him. “Wait a minute, I’m your sister-in-law, is this how you treat me?”

Tong Sanlang slightly knitted his brows, lightly inhaling before tapping his toes on the ground. His body lifted into the air.

He gracefully landed next to TongTiehu, “Grandfather, my Sister-in-law insists on me going to Qiao Xiaomai’s house to buy Sour Plum Soup.”

Tong Tiehu was also holding a spade. He looked up at Zhu Hongyun, who was walking toward him, took off the straw hat he was wearing, and used it as a fan to relieve the heat. “When did Miss Xiaomai start running a restaurant at her home?”

Tong Erlang was right beside Tong Tiehu and although he was young and strong, he could not match Tong Tiehu’s work speed. Hearing this, he quickly said, “Sour Plum Soup? That’s a great idea. This is the perfect time to drink some.”

“Little brother, aren’t you and Miss Xiaomai close? Go and ask her.”

“Exactly, Qiao Xiaomai must want to marry Sanlang, otherwise why would she have sent soup so many times before?” Zhu Hongyun had reached them by then and picked up the conversation.

“That’s excellent. Since they are going to be family sooner or later, why bother buying anything? It’s her responsibility to make Sour Plum Soup for us.” Tong Erlang said.

“Yes, she is the youngest and hasn’t gotten married yet. Consider it as her trying to please our entire family.” Zhu Hongyun added.
