The daily life of a space tycoon raising children, doting on his husband, and farming.

Chapter 110 I'm doing this for your own good
Lu Chengjing was worried that the gore would frighten the two children, so he told Liangliang to take Yuanyuan to play in the shed and not to come out unless he called for her.

Yuanyuan didn't want to leave, but the little boy said he would teach her how to play marbles, so the little one obediently let him carry her away.

Shang Wan listened to the commotion and said to Xiao Huan and the other person, "If you're going to cut it, hurry up, someone's coming."

Before he could finish speaking, a blade flashed before Shi Tou's eyes, and the next second, warm blood splattered onto his face.

With a swift and decisive stroke, as if chopping bones, Xiao Huan wielded the cleaver twice, and from that moment on, the world gained another eunuch, Gao Gonggong.

"Ugh! It's so dirty!" Stone jumped up and ran to the well to fetch water to wash his face.

Blood trickled down to her feet. Xiao Huan, holding the blood-stained kitchen knife, stared blankly at Gao Qi.

Gao Qi's trousers were stained with blood. In the excruciating pain of losing his manhood, his bloodshot eyes were wide open, his torso and limbs twitching uncontrollably, and he was making rapid, guttural noises from his throat, like the mournful cry of a wild beast.

The gruesome, cloth-covered thing rolled to the side.

"Not bad," Shang Wan snapped her fingers. "Make the arrangements quickly."

If it was said to be an accident, then it must have been an accident.

Ma Jieyong kept turning his head to look at Shang Wan and the others, his curiosity burning like a cat scratching its head.

"Do your work, and don't look at things you shouldn't be looking at." He Sizhi slapped his apprentice on the back.

"I'll just take a look." That's what he said, but when faced with his master's stern gaze, Ma Jieyong just grinned and kept his head down to work.

Just as everything was tidied up, Old Lady Gao and Madam Gui stormed in, looking very aggressive.

Behind them were about a dozen villagers, men and women, including Li Xiaoshan.

He ran over quickly, "Sister Xiaohuan, I heard that bastard Gao Qi bullied you, how are you?"

"I'm fine," Xiao Huan said with a reassuring smile.

Gao Qi instantly transformed into Grandpa Gao, and the anger that had been building up inside her was finally released!
"It's good that you're alright." Li Xiaoshan patted his chest. He was terrified when he heard the rumors in the village. He didn't even wait for his brother before rushing to check on the situation.

Lu Chengjing glanced at everyone, pretending to be unaware, and asked, "I wonder what brings you all here in such a hurry?"

Everyone turned their attention to Old Lady Gao and her daughter-in-law, Madam Gui.

Gui's cheeks were swollen and red, looking like puffed-up steamed buns. Strands of hair fell loose at her temples, and with her aggrieved expression, she truly looked quite pitiful.

Old Lady Gao stepped forward, leaning on her cane, her cloudy eyes gleaming as she stared at Lu Chengjing.

“Scholar Lu, you are a learned man; you should know more about propriety, righteousness, and a sense of shame than this old woman. Your wife suddenly struck my daughter-in-law; a junior attacking an elder deserves an explanation!”

Lu Chengjing looked puzzled. "Who are you?"

Old Mrs. Gao choked and said irritably, "I am from the Gao family. According to etiquette, it is not wrong for you to call me grandmother."

Shang Wan curled her lip. What kind of etiquette is this?

Why would someone who couldn't raise a good grandson be eager to adopt another's?
"My grandmother has been buried for many years, and my grandfather never remarried before his passing." Lu Chengjing maintained his refined and courteous demeanor, his expression quite sincere.

"How dare you curse me!" Old Mrs. Gao's face flushed red with anger.

Lu Chengjing frowned slightly and asked in confusion, "When have I ever cursed you?"

He was telling the truth. Isn't rushing to be his deceased grandmother just rushing to be buried?
Older people can't stand being held back. Old Mrs. Gao gasped for breath twice. Gui was worried that she would faint, so she quickly supported her and reached out to help her catch her breath.

"Mother, if you get angry and collapse, who will stand up for your daughter-in-law?" Gui sobbed. "They're just taking advantage of us, a widow and her child, who have no one to rely on. If my husband were still alive, things wouldn't be like this now."

When she cried, Old Lady Gao also started crying, her tears streaming down her face, looking quite pitiful.

Some villagers couldn't stand it anymore and spoke up, "Scholar's wife, it was wrong of you to hit someone. Apologize to him, and this matter will be over." "Yes, the marriage between the two families is approaching, it wouldn't be good to let things fall apart."

"We'll be in-laws sooner or later, so let's not ruin our relationship."

The villagers tried to mediate, but every word they said touched a nerve with Shang Wan and the others.

Shang Wan's face darkened. "You can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want! Who's related to whom by marriage? Did her family come to offer betrothal gifts or exchange marriage certificates?"

The villagers did not expect Shang Wan to react this way. The news of what happened by the river had spread throughout the village. Xiao Huan's reputation was ruined. Who else could she marry but Gao Qi?

The man who spoke first looked embarrassed. "Isn't this just a matter of time? Since the two children are interested in each other, why do you have to break up a couple in love, Scholar's Wife?"

He felt he was trying to reconcile the two sides with good intentions.

What family wouldn't rush to marry off their daughter after such a scandalous affair?

Since the two families are going to get married anyway, if they hurt each other's feelings, wouldn't the girl have a hard time in her husband's family?

"Which eye of yours saw that I have any affection for that scoundrel?" Xiao Huan stared at him coldly.

"How can you be so ungrateful?" The man felt his good intentions were being taken for granted, and his face immediately darkened. "Uncle is doing this for your own good."

Xiao Huan sneered, "Keep this for your own children, I can't afford it!"

Shang Wan looked the man up and down, then suddenly exclaimed, "Ah!" with a look of realization. "Oh, it's you! No wonder you looked familiar. I saw you and Gao Qi kissing shirtless in the reeds the other day. Helping your lover find a wife, how generous!"

Everyone:! ! !
What did they hear? !

What kissing? Who kissed whom? Which lover?

"What nonsense are you talking about? When did I ever kiss Gao Qi?" The man's face froze instantly, his expression as disgusted as if he had swallowed a fly.

“How can you say that’s nonsense? I saw it with my own eyes.” Shang Wan pointed to her family. “By the way, I wasn’t the only one who saw it; they saw it too.”

Lu Chengjing, Xiao Huan, and Shi Tou were silent for a moment, then nodded in unison.

Ah, yes, yes!

My wife/sister says she saw it, so she saw it!

Stone added, "The kisses were so loud, I felt embarrassed just listening to them."

He raised his hand to cover his face, feigning shyness.

Lu Chengjing and Xiao Huan glanced at him, but found it offensive and quickly looked away.

Everyone was so shocked that their eyes almost popped out; they couldn't even imagine what was happening.

They glanced at the man, their gazes a mixture of disdain, shock, disgust, and surprise—a complex mix that defied easy description.

The man immediately panicked, his face flushed as he protested, "I didn't! She's talking nonsense!"

Shang Wan sighed, "Uncle, how can you be so ungrateful? I'm doing this for your own good."

The man was so angry his hands were trembling, "You..."

"Hey, don't be so polite!" Shang Wan waved her hand to interrupt him. "I'm just too kind-hearted. I can't stand seeing others break up a loving couple."

"As the saying goes, true lovers will eventually be united. Since we've happened to see you two, I can't bear to see you living a life of secrecy, worrying about your families and societal expectations, and thus leaving behind a lifetime of regret. True lovers should be together."

“Yes, Uncle, we saw it all, so please don’t hide it from us.” Xiao Huan said sincerely, suppressing a laugh. “Although it’s rare to see two men together, true feelings are fearless. We all believe that you and Gao Qi are sincere towards each other.”
