Chapter 47 - 47 Unkempt
47 Unkempt
Chen Guihua originally wanted to climb over the wall and catch them red-handed. Not only could she report Su Wen for being a thief, but she could also take all the good stuff to her house.
Now that she heard that Su Wen wanted to catch the thief, she could not.
If she were caught, she would not be able to explain herself.
Su Wen dragged the wooden stake back into the courtyard and went to the toilet before going back. She carefully locked the small door.
Su Qing, who had been guarding the kitchen, heard the movement and asked carefully, “What’s wrong, big sister? I think I heard you shouting thief?”
“Yes! I just went out and found someone sneakily climbing into our yard.” Su Wen would not say that it was Chen Guihua. No one would believe her if she said it directly. If she did not say her name, the news would spread in the village tomorrow.
“Then what do we do?” Su Qing was shocked. “We don’t have a man at home and brother-in-law isn’t around. What if a thief comes?” Su Qing was not only afraid of a thief, but she was also afraid of Zhao Jiangang. What if her sister was really coaxed by him?
“It’s fine. I’ve already chased the thief away. Tomorrow, I’ll just find some cacti and plant them on the wall.”
“Okay, I’ll go to master’s house tomorrow to find some.”
“Yes!”

Chen Guihua ran home in a panic and woke up Su Xueqiang, who had already fallen asleep.
When Su Xueqiang woke up, he smelled a pungent stench. His face was ugly. He sat on the bed and looked at Chen Guihua with a dark expression. “How old are you? Did you wet the bed? Aren’t you embarrassed?”
His eyes glanced at Chen Guihua’s swollen waist, full of disdain.
“I didn’t.” Chen Guihua’s ankle was hurting and she did not notice Su Xueqiang’s expression. She cursed, “It’s all because of that little b***h, Su Wen. It’s all her fault.”
Now that they were home, Chen Guihua had calmed down. She thought that Su Wen must have known it was her and did it on purpose.
“D**n it, that little w***h must have done it on purpose.” Chen Guihua sat on the ground in a sorry state and cursed.
“Change your clothes first. Don’t you feel embarrassed?” Su Xueqiang covered his nose in disgust.
Chen Guihua was furious. “You don’t like me? Su Xueqiang, you should have thought about how I married you. Without me, you’ll be easily manipulated by the second brother and his wife!”
Chen Guihua was indeed not a person who cared about hygiene. The dirt in the kitchen was so thick that the original color could not be seen. As soon as one entered the house, one was filled with a pungent smell. Chicken poop, rotten vegetable leaves, rice shells, and other things were thrown everywhere.
Su Xueqiang was too lazy to do housework. He was the youngest among his brothers, so he did not know how to do housework. The couple had long been famous in the village, and no one came to visit Su Xueqiang’s house.
“Don’t bring up the past.” Su Xueqiang hated people mentioning the past to him.
In the past, the eldest and his wife had been driven out without a grain of food. The second brother had tasted the benefits in the middle and wanted to deal with him in the same way. Naturally, no one in the surrounding villages was willing to give it to him.
Chen Guihua’s father was the village chief of another village and had a good relationship with the commune director. With her father’s support, the second son naturally did not dare to do anything to him. This way, they could get half of the things. However, it was also because of this that the two brothers had not seen eye to eye for so many years.
Because the old man and the old lady did not treat them fair, the separation of the family was unfair, and the three brothers became strangers.
“Am I not feeding you?” Su Xueqiang was annoyed. The more he looked at Chen Guihua, the more he despised her. “Hurry up and change your clothes.”
