Transmigration: The Farm Life of a “Fool”

Xu Ran told Liu Tong what had happened back in the yard, which didn’t make differences on Liu Tong’s face but got his own face darken again.

It was not that Liu Tong’s expression did not change; he just did not get it at the moment. He could never expect such a thing to happen!

Liu Tong even asked, “Are they really the servants of the Zhuo Yun? How could they do such a thing?

Xu Ran was also surprised. Normally people of the Zhuo Mansion shouldn’t be like this!

He didn’t know how these three Ge’ers with evil thoughts got the job in Zhuo Mansion.

Liu Tong was not angry as he said, and he even comforted Xu Ran, “Ran, you’re a good man and we all know it. You’re gentle, smart, and diligent. Besides you have a good temper. We saw how you treated them these past few days. No wonder they have those indecent thoughts. The blame is on me, if not that I’m pregnant, they wouldn’t have such thoughts.”

Xu Ran disagreed firmly. “Tongtong, there is nothing wrong of you being pregnant. That’s our baby. Besides it has nothing to do with you at all. It was they who had the thoughts and I despise those people who have no self-respect and covet something that doesn’t belong to them.”

Looking at him being furious, Liu Tong uncommonly touched his head and said, “Alright, Ran, don’t be angry. They’re going back tomorrow anyway, and you won’t see them again. Let’s sleep, and you’ll forget it when we wake up tomorrow.”

Xu Ran pouted, “Don’t forget that they are the servants of Zhuo Yun’s family, and we definitely will go to Zhuo Yun’s house. It will be disgusting to see them there! Besides, if they can seduce me in my house, won’t they seduce Zhuo Yun at his house? No way! I have to tell Zhuo Yun tomorrow to send these people away. It a disaster to keep them!”

The more Xu Ran spoke, the more agitated he became. He wanted to fly to the Zhuo Mansion right now and tell them that these people could not be kept at home.

Liu Tong felt that if he continued speaking, he wouldn’t be able to sleep tonight, so he dragged him down and leaned sideways to kiss him, blocking his mouth from speaking.

Xu Ran was a little upset that he could speak no more but then he was happy since this was the first time that Tongtong took the initiative to kiss him like this, and it was even on his mouth. Then he became upset again because Liu Tong was pregnant, so he could not do anything.

Xu Ran gently pushed Liu Tong away. “Tongtong, don’t turn me on now, but I will remember this. You have to pay it back after giving birth.”

Liu Tong nodded, and he didn’t worry about what Xu Ran said. Anyway, whatever Xu Ran wanted, he would satisfy him. He just couldn’t give hard feelings to this man because he really loved him.

Looking at Liu Tong’s obedient appearance, Xu Ran kissed him on the face. Then he put him in his arms and pulled the quilts over him. “Sleep. I’ll forget when I get up tomorrow morning.”

“Okay.”

…

When Xu Ran got up in the morning the next day, he indeed forgot about what had happened last night. But when he saw the three Ge’ers at breakfast, his face darkened again. Now, anyone could tell that he was unhappy.

Xu Ran forced himself to hold back his anger and asked them to leave immediately after the breakfast.

It had been planned that Xu Ran drove them back, but now he didn’t want that. Instead he asked Gao Quan to drive a carriage to send off the three Ge’ers, and he went to Wu Mei to borrow a ox-cart to drive the two men back. In his mind, he kept reminding himself of telling Zhuo Yun what had happened.

The three Ge’ers were quite uneasy in the carriage because they never thought about what would happen if they failed, which was what happened now. Xu Ran’s expression this morning told them that it wouldn’t end well. They all said that people who had no temper were the most terrible when they got angry. Xu Ran had gotten them frightened with just a darkened face.

Most importantly, they didn’t know what would happen after they arrived at the Zhuo Mansion.

The three of them were anxious and sorry, but it was too late to repent.

After sending them to the Zhuo Mansion and handing them over to Housekeeper Zhuo, Xu Ran went to find Zhuo Yun and told him what had happened last night. There was no exaggeration, but his tone was very angry as if he was going to eat someone.

Zhuo Yun was also unhappy after hearing this. He never thought that there would be this kind of people in his residence. Normally he didn’t really contact with these servants. Plus, the people in the residence all knew that he only had Qin Shuwen in his heart, so no one dared have some evil thought about him. He never expected such thing to happen.

Zhuo Yun found the housekeeper and told him what had happened. Then he scolded the housekeeper for choosing these people and asked him to send them back to the human traffickers. The Zhuo Mansion didn’t want such people and couldn’t afford the cost.

Because of his negligence, the housekeeper didn’t plead for mercy to them. He took the contracts from Zhuo Yun and brought them to the human traffickers.

After the housekeeper left, Zhuo Yun started to comfort Xu Ran and told him not to be angry, saying that it was such a fortunate that nothing serious happened.

Xu Ran’s anger rose again. “It won’t end well If anything happened. If it were you, how can you face Shuwen?”

Zhuo Yun said without hesitation, “I can’t for sure.”

“Then you should understand me now!” Xu Ran said.

Zhuo Yun scratched his head. He understood, but his point was “could you not speak in such a tone now?”

Zhuo Yun did not answer, and Xu Ran found it boring to speak alone and his anger slowly faded.

Seeing that Xu Ran was not that angry anymore, Zhuo Yun said, “Ran, don’t tell Shuwen about this, otherwise I will definitely be in trouble. I will rectify in the residence and there won’t necessarily be that many servants. Apart from those who have to stay, I might as well disperse the rest, which will save me a lot of money.”

Xu Ran also knew that if Qin Shuwen knew about it, he would feel uncomfortable; although he was proud, he was quite innocent.

Xu Ran nodded. “I won’t say that. I will also tell Tongtong not to let Shuwen know. There is no need for so many servants in your residence. Just keep a chef, a coachman, two to clean, and one to guard the gate. It’s about enough with the housekeeper. You don’t need them to keep up appearances anyway, so why do you raise so many people for nothing?”

Zhuo Yun sighed. “That’s right, I didn’t pay attention to it before. I wasn’t at home, so I left it to the housekeeper. It seems that there really isn’t a need for so many people, especially those with unrealistic fantasies.”

Xu Ran said, “How about this, my house is spacious. When you go to business next year, just let Shuwen live in my house. Liu Tong and I will take care of him as well. Besides Liu Tong and Shao Yu can also be his companion.”

“Alright, I was planning to let Shuwen go back to the Qin Family, but Shuwen says that he is a married Ge’er after all. He definitely can’t live in his daddy’s house for one or two months,” Qin Shuwen himself was unwilling to go back either. Although his brothers treated him well, there were still his brothers’ spouses. It will be inevitable to have some conflicts living together and that was not what he want.

“Alright, you go discuss with Shuwen, and don’t treat us as outsiders.”

“Okay.”

Xu Ran talked to Zhuo Yun for a while then went back. Anyway, he was happy to have the three people dealt with and wouldn’t see them again.

When Xu Ran arrived at the door, he left Big Black for Gao Quan and rushed to share his joy with Liu Tong.

However, as soon as he entered the yard, he heard the noise and yell.

Xu Ran’s heart tightened and he immediately ran upstairs to find Liu Tong.

The door of Liu Tong’s room was closed and there was a groan sound from time to time. Then it was the sound Xu Ran had just heard in the yard. Tangtang and Guoguo stood outside the door.

Xu Ran grabbed Tangtang and asked him, “What’s wrong? What’s wrong with your Daddy? ”

Tangtang was also a little scared. He said, “Daddy just said that his belly hurt and he wanted to use the toilet. Then Daddy Shao Yu said that Daddy might be going to give birth, so he asked me to go and find Daddy Zhou. After Daddy Zhou came over, he let Mr. Hu to boil the water; then he went into Daddy’s room with Daddy Shao Yu and never came out.”

‘Going to give birth?’ Xu Ran still didn’t get what was happening, but he was relieved when he heard that Liu Tong was about to give birth. Fortunately, it was not something else.

At this moment, another yell came out, “Hot water!”

Xu Ran quickly ran downstairs to get some hot water when he heard this.

In the kitchen, Mr. Hu was hurriedly adding firewood into the stove. There was a big pot of water over the fire. Xu Ran found a clean basin and washed it inside and outside before filling it with hot water and going upstairs.

When reaching the door, Xu Ran shouted, “Hot water is here.”

Shao Yu immediately opened the door to fetch hot water and said to Xu Ran, “Young master, lord is fine. Don’t worry too much.” Then he held the basin and went back to the room.

Hearing this, Xu Ran felt assured. He knew that one would scream miserably when giving birth; after all, it was painful. Besides no one in this place could do cesarean. Without anesthetic, it would definitely be painful even more!

Xu Ran paced up and down at the door and waited for the news inside. Tangtang and Guoguo were also standing there. They had probably never seen this situation before and were so scared that they were about to cry. Xu Ran simply pulled them downstairs.

Xu Ran said, “Daddy is giving birth to a younger baby. You two need to behave yourselves. It’s fine to play at home or go out to see the little ewe. Your younger brother will need milk. Dad needs to go to fetch hot water, so I don’t have too much time to be with you. Be good, okay?”

Tangtang and Guoguo nodded heavily and even pushed Xu Ran away. “Dad, go to do your work. We will behave.”

Xu Ran touched their heads and ran to the kitchen to get hot water.
