Switched Marriage The Coddled Little Wife novel Chapter 283

Chapter 283: Chapter 283: Does She Still Have a Thing with Mr. Su?

Qin Wen reached the entrance of the village and could still hear those two discussing.

"Rumor has it they went to the Old Qin Family’s house, to find Second Qin’s wife. I don’t know what the public security wanted with Second Qin’s wife."

"When public security shows up, what else could it be about? The Qin Family runs both a bun shop and a food factory, with so many workers under them, wouldn’t they have to talk to the leader if any worker messed up? Besides, there was that chicken plague recently, and that shrew from Huang Family Village and her daughter-in-law even made trouble at the food factory. I heard they were going to take legal action; it’s likely that the public security came to investigate."

"Ah, isn’t it said that Second Qin’s wife is really capable? With all these issues, how could an ordinary person handle it? Just talking to me for a bit earlier, and I was sweating in my palms."

"Exactly," having said that, the person saw Qin Wen entering the village and greeted with a smile, "Qin Wen, just got off work?"

Qin Wen nodded, "Second Mom, Third Aunt, not working the fields today?"

"No, there’s nothing much to do in the fields, everyone in the family has gone to work, we planted low-maintenance crops this year."

The locals nodded and greeted before moving on, and Qin Wen got back on his bicycle.

A bit further away, he overheard the two continuing their discussion, even mentioning his own name.

Qin Wen’s face darkened.

They’re really the old ladies of the village, idly gossiping whenever they can.

How does how well other families do concern them?

If Second Qin’s wife is capable, it’s Second Qin’s affair, what’s there for them to be proud of?

Moreover, Qin Yang just got lucky, stumbled into fortune—others might not know, but he was perfectly clear.

Initially, when talking marriage with the Lin Family, Lin Family’s eldest daughter looked down on Qin Yang, even changing her mind after they had settled on the arrangement.

Being so picky about a marriage, what’s there to be proud of?

Upon returning home, he saw his wife Ma Suyun just coming back from the fields, carrying a hoe, looking exhausted, and dinner wasn’t even made.

"Why are you back so late, didn’t I tell you to come back earlier to cook? I’ve been working all morning, and I still have to wait for you to cook."

Ma Suyun, too tired to move, hearing Qin Wen’s complaint, retorted, "You work half a day and think I don’t work the other half in the fields?"

"Then you should have come back earlier, you can’t let someone go hungry."

"I did want to come back earlier, but the corn needs weeding, if we don’t hurry, what about the harvest, what about the public grain tax?"

Failing to deliver the public grain means having to pay out of pocket.

Hearing about weeding, Qin Wen frowned even more.

"It’s been so many days, how come you’re still not done with this work?"

Ma Suyun’s eyes widened, "What do you mean ’this work’? It’s three acres of corn, normally a man should do it, you have me, a woman doing it and still complaining I’m slow?"
