The husband I snatched halfway through his life is strange.

Chapter 116 You're confused? Who's smarter than you?

There was a "pop" sound.

It was loud and melodious.

The slap was swift and powerful.

Wang's face was slapped to the side, quickly turning red, revealing a clear handprint.

"you--"

She took a few steps back, her eyes filled with confusion and shock, which eventually turned into anger.

"My husband hits me as soon as he gets home?"

"How dare you, you stupid woman, question me?"

Hu Dalang was astonished: "Father."

"Go inside!"

Hu Dalang gritted his teeth, but when he heard the child crying, he became nervous and ran towards the source of the sound.

Upon seeing this, Wang felt inexplicably flustered and grabbed Hu Dalang's clothes.

"Da Lang."

How could Little Xu inside the house not hear the commotion?

She only regretted that the slap was too light!
Xiao Xu hated Wang Shi to the core.

She glanced at the baby girl beside her.

All you do is cry, cry, cry.

At first, Mrs. Xu doted on this child.

But as time went on, she also developed resentment under Wang's constant beatings and scoldings.

She's just upset that she's not a man.

Ignoring the cold, she picked up the child and rushed outside.

She knelt down in front of Hu Dazhu, tears streaming down her face.

"Father, please, please let Mother spare the child's life."

"It doesn't matter to me, but the child is still young."

Hu Dalang had seen other families' newborn babies before; they weren't exactly chubby and fair-skinned, but they were healthy.

But the baby in Xiao Xu's arms was really small and thin.

The sound of crying...

Listen to what's going on next door, it's so loud!

His heart ached with pain, and his eyes instantly reddened. He pushed away Wang's hand and strode over. Carefully, as if afraid of breaking his daughter, he held her in his arms and then reached for Xiao Xu.

"stand up!"

"You're still in your postpartum period, go inside and lie down! If you don't take good care of yourself, you'll end up with a lot of health problems."

He dragged the wailing Xu Shi into the house.

But just as he was about to step across the threshold, Hu Dalang stopped.

"Mom, if you have any complaints about the child, take them out on me."

Wang: ? ? ?
She said incredulously, "No, you're getting angry with your mother over some little girl?"

"Brother, don't listen to your wife's instigation."

The child in her arms seemed weightless, frighteningly light.

Hu Dalang's face was grim: "This is my daughter, she should call me 'mother' and 'grandmother' too. If anything really happens to her, I..."

He didn't say anything more, nor could he bring himself to say it, and simply slammed the door shut.

Wang: ? ? ?
She was so angry that she wanted to chase after him, but Hu Dazhu blocked her way.

Hu Dazhu stared coldly at Wang Shi, his anger trapped in his chest, lingering for a long time.

His teeth were grinding together.

Wang asked anxiously, "Wh...what's wrong!"

Hu Dazhu: "What do you have to say about my stepmother?"

"What did I tell you before I left before the New Year? Hmm!"

Upon hearing him mention Yu Tingwan, a hint of guilt flashed across Wang's face.

She retorted, "How can you blame me for this?"

Wang remained calm: "Your niece is very opinionated. She's set her sights on that half-dead man from the Wei family. Can I stop her?"

"We've provided her with plenty of food and clothing, so how much more do you want me to treat her well?"

“You always protect her, and I, as her aunt, often have to watch her mood.”

"Shut up!"

Hu Dazhu interrupted him with a scolding.

"Be good to her?"

"I just brought her home and you immediately put on a long face, saying you're starving and have nowhere to stay. Is this how you treat her well?"

“When she was thirteen, she accidentally broke a bowl at home, and you pushed her out the door and told her to get out.”

"Do you really think I'm completely unaware of some things just because I don't mention them?"

"Putting everything else aside, what do you have to say about the Dong family?" "How old is Wan Niang? Did she deserve to be schemed against by you? How can you still have the nerve to talk about what happened back then!"

"Don't you know what kind of beast Squire Dong is? Aren't the number of girls who were harmed and killed by him enough to be carried out of his house?"

"I've said it before, my marriage is my decision, it's none of your business! Did you just ignore me?"

The girls in the village are all betrothed and engaged at a young age.

He dragged Yu Tingwan along because he felt that a country bumpkin was not good enough for his niece!

He wanted to find a capable and suitable husband so that Yu Tingwan could live a good life. Once Erlang passed the imperial examination, there would be many good families available for marriage.

Now it's all destroyed!
Wang was still afraid of him.

"This……"

"I didn't make a mistake in a moment of confusion..."

"Are you confused?"

Hu Dazhu: "Who's smarter than you!"

"The Dong family's affair didn't work out, and you still want to marry Tingwan off to the Xu family!"

"The Xu family..."

Hu Dazhu was so angry that his vision blurred.

But considering his daughter-in-law inside, he swallowed his words.

He was furious, and when he saw that Wang was still trying to argue, he found a wooden stick in the yard.

I'm too lazy to say another word.

It landed directly on Wang.

Wang screamed in pain.

Hu Dazhu's eyes gradually turned bloodshot with hatred: "You've ruined my stepmother's life, I'll beat you to death!"

The commotion in the courtyard delighted Ms. Xu.

The grievances and resentment I suffered these past few days have dissipated considerably.

She even wanted to laugh.

Live it!

Why is he still crying?

Hu Dalang held the swaddled baby in his arms and tried to soothe him, but nothing worked; he was very anxious.

Ms. Xu: "I'm not getting enough to eat, I'm hungry."

Hu Dalang became anxious upon hearing this.

"I took it next door and asked them to feed it for me first. I'll go find some goat milk later."

Seeing that he cared about his daughter and didn't show any disdain, Madam Xu breathed a sigh of relief, her eyes filled with tears: "No need."

She said, "My mother said we won't starve to death."

Hu Dalang: ? ? ?

Mrs. Xu: "It's a pity that I gave birth to the child."

"If Erlang gets a daughter, Mother will definitely not mistreat her."

She wanted to sow discord.

Ms. Xu is a simpleton; she is straightforward and her words are often unpleasant to hear.

But she can learn.

Having spent so much time with that bitch Yu Tingwan, she's become quite adept at using the tactic of advancing while retreating!

But she's simple-minded.

Such words might work if spoken to Hu Dazhu. But they have no effect on Hu Dalang, this reckless fellow.

Hu Dalang glanced at her for no apparent reason.

"What are you talking about?"

Ms. Xu's tea talk: "I didn't mean anything by it."

"That's good."

Hu Dalang: "Don't try to compare yourself to Erlang in everything."

“I am just a farmer who only knows how to work the land, while Erlang is a refined scholar. This is the difference between heaven and earth.”

"It's understandable that Mother values ​​Erlang's daughter."

Ms. Xu: ? ? ?

Hu Dalang, worried that his daughter would go hungry, was about to go next door. But then he remembered something and couldn't help but look at Xiao Xu Shi.

His eyes held a warning.

"Your father was being lenient with you just now because he was concerned about how you suffered during childbirth."

“When the Dong family’s affair failed, Mother wanted your brother Xu Fen to marry Wan Niang. I don’t believe you didn’t play a role in that.”

"Who gave you the right to set your sights on your stepmother? Stay in your room and reflect on your actions."

Ms. Xu's heart skipped a beat.

"Big...Big Brother."

Hu Dalang: "If it weren't for the need to consider your health, do you think I wouldn't have dealt with you?"
