The Peasant Wife Is a Lucky Charm Chapter 17

Chapter 17

Don’t Think If You Don’t Want To
Su Ning had witnessed Qin Zhenzhen’s cooking before, and it was nothing like what she was seeing now.
If it weren’t for the fact that her appearance and figure hadn’t changed, she would have suspected that the plump girl in front of her was a different person.
In the study, Su Bin was asked by his unreliable second brother, “Do you want to divorce the plump girl?”
Su Bin calmly looked at him and replied, “No.”
“Why?”
“If I don’t want to, then I won’t.” Su Bin didn’t feel the need to provide further explanation.
“Are you afraid of offending her four brothers and it affecting your exams?”
Su Bin remained silent.
He didn’t want to reveal that this was only one of the reasons.
Another reason was that he didn’t want to let the plump girl off so easily!
If she provoked or bullied him, she would have to face his retaliation.
Taking Su Bin’s silence as confirmation, his second brother patted his chest confidently.
“Two months ago, you were bullied by them because I wasn’t home! Now that I’m back, you don’t have to fear them anymore. If you want a divorce, leave this matter to me!”
“My brothers are all skilled in martial arts. I can invite them over…”
Su Bin interrupted him. “I already said I’m not getting a divorce!”
Then, he sternly warned him, “Don’t involve yourself in this matter!”
Su Bin understood what his second brother was implying. He wanted to invite his rowdy friends to the Qin family for a fight.
However, this matter couldn’t be resolved with just a brawl.
Regardless of who emerged victorious or suffered defeat, who died or got injured, the consequences would escalate and directly impact his exams.
Furthermore, Su Bin had clearly underestimated the combat prowess of Qin Zhenzhen’s four brothers. It remained uncertain who would end up dead or injured in a confrontation.
Even that infuriating plump girl possessed immense strength. When she knocked him down, he was utterly defenseless, resulting in his lips getting injured by her teeth!
His third brother had refused to help him. It was evident that he was hurt.
“If they don’t cause any further trouble, let’s leave it at that,” Su Bin’s tone softened slightly.
“We can’t solely focus on ourselves. We have to take care of our younger siblings. We must endure some anger for now and shoulder our responsibilities.”
He had already allowed the plump girl into their home. He had already been bullied. Getting a divorce at this point served no purpose.
Besides, he had kept Qin Zhenzhen alive to torment her in the future!
Of course, he understood what his brother was trying to convey.
Su Bin lowered his head slightly. “Second Brother, I understand. I won’t deliberately go to the Qin family to cause trouble.”
“Tomorrow, you should return to the academy and concentrate on your studies. For the next two weeks, I won’t go out either. I’ll protect our younger siblings at home and ensure the Qin family doesn’t harass you anymore.”
As the second brother, he was supposed to be the pillar of the family. He couldn’t allow his siblings to go hungry any longer.
He couldn’t risk engaging in a physical altercation. Third Brother was their family’s sole hope, and he shouldn’t do anything that might jeopardize his exams.
He would settle the score with the Qin family after his third brother achieved success!
At that moment, Su Qing entered the study.
“Second Brother, Third Brother,” Su Qing called out.
He emptied the contents of a money bag onto the table. “This is the tip I received from the troupe. I tried to give it to Fifth Brother earlier, but he refused to accept it. Third Brother, I know you brought back some money as well. Please give it to Fifth Brother later.”
Su Bin’s brows furrowed slightly. He had initially objected to Ling’s decision to join an acting class and pursue a career in acting. He viewed actors as belonging to a lowly profession.
However, it was the first time his fourth brother had defied his orders and secretly entered an opera troupe to study under a master.
Fourth Brother possessed a handsome appearance, and his gender was often indistinguishable. Moreover, he had a unique voice that could convincingly portray female characters.
