Salted Fish Lady Loves to Eat Melons

Chapter 206: A Stronger Son-in-Law Than I Imagined

"Sister-in-law, it's getting late. Should we go back home now?" Xiao Laoqi stepped forward and asked.

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Laowu also gathered around him and looked like he wanted to set off immediately.

Xiao Laowu was worried that it would be too late to return to the city and that the journey would be unsafe. After all, he only had brute force and no martial arts skills.

"Okay! Let's go." Wen Qingwan said, then pulled Su Xiaomin and turned to walk towards the carriage.

The reason why she didn't ask Fan Shiba was because she was going to get married in a few days and it was not appropriate for her to go to the Marquis' Mansion again.

But Xiao Libo picked up a slop bucket in one hand and shouted, "Huan'er, do you want to go back to the mansion for dinner today?"

When Fan Shiba heard this, he looked up and saw Wen Qingwan had already got on the carriage.

She couldn't help feeling a little disappointed, but she smiled and said, "I'm not going today."

"If Huan'er doesn't want to go, then I won't go back home today. It just so happens that two sows have given birth to more than 20 piglets. Sister-in-law, please go slowly."

Xiao Libo said this with a smile, then walked towards the pigpen carrying the manure bucket.

Xiao Laowu and Xiao Laoqi looked at each other and shook their heads, then mounted their horses and followed their eldest sister-in-law's carriage.

Wen Qingwan lifted the carriage curtain and said goodbye to Fan Shiba: "Shiba, I may not have time to come to the farm to see you these few days."

Su Xiaomin quickly poked her head out and said, "Sister Yu Huan, I'll come early tomorrow to play with you."

Upon hearing this, Fan Shiba felt both happy and a little disappointed. He stood there and watched Wen Qingwan and the others leave.

After the carriage left the gate of the manor, Sister Yun walked up to Fan Shiba and explained.

"Eighteen, your sister-in-law didn't invite you back to the Marquis' Mansion because you are getting married in a few days, and wealthy families have strict rules.

You can’t meet with your husband’s family a few days before the wedding. If it gets out and people start gossiping about it, it’ll be bad!”

When Fan Shiba heard this, he immediately jumped up and down anxiously, "Wouldn't it be bad if Second Brother stayed?"

"He is willing to stay on the farm to accompany you, which shows that he cares about you very much. Besides, no one else knows it."

After hearing this, Fan Shiba nodded in sudden realization and his face was filled with happiness again.

"I see. I thought my sister-in-law didn't like me anymore! Sister Yun, wasn't it embarrassing for me to behave like that just now?"

When Sister Yun saw Fan Shiba's look, she couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle.

"Look at you, you're so stupid. Since the Second Young Master has no intention of returning home, it shows that he also knows the rules."

Fan Shiba was stunned for a moment, then happily chased Brother Xiao Er towards the pigpen.

She is actually an extremely smart person, but because she stayed in the northwest with her father for a long time, her personality became straightforward and she doesn't like to beat around the bush.

Now, after spending a few months in the capital, she has learned a lot, but she has no plans to change and happily follows Second Brother Xiao.

When Sister Yun saw how lively and cheerful Fan Shiba was, an envious smile appeared on her face.

The four of them were able to escape from the Yin Mansion thanks to the people behind Fan Shiba, otherwise they would have been tortured to death by Madam Yin and her son.

After coming to this farm and finding a place to settle down, they were grateful to the Xiao family and even more grateful to Fan Shiba.

She prayed to the Bodhisattva every day to bless the Xiao family with peace and prosperity, and she also hoped that Fan Shiba could live a happy and worry-free life.

But she never dreamed that the vicious woman would want to marry into the Xiao family. Wasn't that just a dream? She thought they were just as grateful to Fan Shiba as she was!
They were able to escape because of Fan Shiba, Sister Yun thought so, and hurried to beat up the other two women.

I hope they don’t do anything stupid. If they are driven out of the village, how can a weak woman survive?
Fan Shiba had no idea that Sister Yun was thinking so much in her mind, and he quickly chased after Brother Xiao to the pigpen.

She asked excitedly, "Second brother, we have more than 20 piglets today. Are we going to make a lot of money again?"

When Fan Shiba asked this, Brother Xiao said cheerfully, "Yes, we need to raise many more sows. Then I want to build pig farms in other villages."

Fan Shiba asked in surprise, "Second brother, why is this? Isn't a pig farm enough?"

Brother Xiao scratched his head and said with an embarrassed look: "The money earned from a pig farm is definitely not enough, so I will naturally go somewhere else to earn it."

After listening to this, Fan Shiba frowned and thought for a while, then clapped his hands and shouted, "Second brother is so awesome, I will build a pig farm with you in the future."

"Huan'er, don't you think that my second brother is useless in raising pigs?"

"How could that be! My second brother makes a lot of money from just one pig farm. If he builds a few more pig farms, how much more money will he make!
My second brother is so powerful, if anyone dares to say you are useless, I will beat his teeth out." Fan Shiba said, waving his little fist in the air.

When Xiao Erge heard her say this, he quickly reached out and touched her head, saying lovingly, "Okay, then we'll build a lot of pig farms together. When our son grows up, we'll give him one, and when our daughter grows up, we'll give her two."

"Ah! Why only one is given to the son, but two are given to the daughter?" Fan Shiba asked instinctively, forgetting to highlight the key point.

"Because daughters need to be pampered, naturally you have to give them more. Sons can be raised roughly, but you can't give them nothing."

"Haha, what Second Brother said makes a lot of sense. I love Second Brother the most!"

"Well... Huan'er, say it again."

"Second brother is so nice, I love him the most!"

"Hahahaha...I love Huan'er too."

"Second brother, you are so bad!"

When General Fan and Aunt Li came over, they saw their daughter and Xiao Er playing and joking together.

The couple's lips curled slightly at their daughter's happy look, and a complex and indecipherable look flashed in General Fan's eyes.

The son-in-law he had in mind was not a pig farmer like Xiao Er!
But seeing his daughter so happy, he felt that he could still reluctantly accept Xiao Er.

Aunt Li was really happy to see this scene. When she heard in the northwest that her daughter was going to marry the second son of Marquis Weiwu, she was very worried about her daughter.

Because her daughter was not like other young ladies from wealthy families and did not understand the rules as well as others, Aunt Li was afraid that her daughter would be wronged.

What's wrong with raising pigs? As long as her daughter has enough to eat and clothes to wear, that's enough.

What's more, this son-in-law is quite handsome, which is much better than the son-in-law she had imagined.

Aunt Li felt happy when she saw Fan Shiba and Xiao Erge playing and fighting without any restraint.

So she shouted loudly: "Son-in-law, daughter, auntie is here to see you."

"Dad, Mom, why are you here?" Fan Shiba let go of Xiao Erge's arm and ran towards her parents.

"Oh my, our daughter doesn't want her father and aunt to come and see you!" Aunt Li joked as she stretched out her arms and hugged her daughter who was running towards her.

"Mom, are you tired from coming all the way here? Second brother, come and meet my mom."

"The son-in-law has met his father-in-law and mother-in-law."
