Chapter 71: Not Moved
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Qin Zhenzhen nodded with a warm smile. “Okay, okay. We’re from the same village, I trust you.”
This gesture endeared Qin Zhenzhen to the majority of villagers, altering their perception of her.
Everyone praised Su Bin’s wife for her generosity, eloquence, competence, and propriety.
She proved herself to be a responsible sister-in-law and a resilient woman who refused to be bullied. She possessed the qualities necessary for building a strong family.
Su Bin was indeed fortunate to have married her.
Considering that people from the same village had limited purchasing power, it was clear that a 150 kg wild boar couldn’t be sold out within the village alone.
After having lunch at the Su Family’s residence, the Qin brothers planned to sell the wild boar meat in town.
“Zhenzhen, regardless of the sales, we will give you the proceeds. You won’t need to pay a single penny.”
Qin Zhenzhen responded earnestly, “That won’t do. You’ve already spent a day carrying the wild boars, slaughtering them, and selling the meat. You deserve to be compensated.”
“Remember to keep some of the exquisite cuts for yourselves as well. It will serve as a gesture of filial respect towards our parents and grandmother.”
Qin Dalong chuckled. “Great, great, great! Our sister truly understands. We’ll certainly reserve some of the wild boar meat for our parents and grandmother, but we won’t charge them.”
“Working for your sister and still expecting payment? That’s quite the joke!”
“Furthermore, such opportunities don’t come by often. Half the time isn’t much to ask.”
Qin Zhenzhen felt completely at ease entrusting the wild boar meat to her brothers for selling in town. She had full confidence in them.
Su Ning and Su Cheng had no words to express their grat.i.tude. Without Qin Zhenzhen’s intervention, they would have been unable to protect the wild boar. They might not have even received half a kilogram of wild boar meat.
Now, they had enjoyed a satisfying lunch of wild boar meat and pig offal. Qin Zhenzhen even set aside a piece of wild boar meat weighing over 5 kg, suggesting they marinate it and slowly savor it as dried meat.
Thus, even if the proceeds from selling the wild boar were given to Qin Zhenzhen, they had no objections.
In the evening, Qin Zhenzhen prepared a large pot of yam pork bone soup using the wild boar bones. She also planned to fry a plate of pig intestines. There was even a bowl of braised pork left, making the dinner truly sumptuous.
However, she hadn’t antic.i.p.ated the return of Su Bin and Su Ping.
Qin Zhenzhen refrained from questioning them about their whereabouts. They didn’t seem to have borrowed any money, but Su Bin appeared worried about his uncle’s family potentially selling their fields. Upon learning this, they hastily rushed home.
Qin Zhenzhen turned to Su Ning and said, “Go to the backyard and pick some chili. Tonight, we’ll make a dish of twice-cooked pork and another of chili fried meat.”
Su Ning cheerfully responded, “Okay, I’ll be there shortly!”
But instead of rus.h.i.+ng to pick the chili, Su Ning and Su Cheng took the opportunity to inform their Second Brother and Third Brother about the events of the past few days.
They praised and expressed grat.i.tude towards Qin Zhenzhen. “Third Brother, Third Sister-in-law is different now!”
Upon hearing their words, Su Bin fell into deep contemplation.
Was she truly different from before?
In fact, he had observed subtle changes during his previous visit.
However, he hadn’t expected Qin Zhenzhen to undergo such a significant transformation.
If his siblings were not lying, then Qin Zhenzhen must not be the same person she used to be.
Yet, her physical appearance, voice, and smile had remained unchanged.
It seemed unlikely that she had been replaced by someone else.
The most plausible explanation was that the plump girl had encountered a mentor who guided her and influenced her transformation.
Regardless of the changes she had undergone, the strategies she employed, or her stroke of luck, he would never allow himself to be swayed by her!
