Reborn as an Ugly Wife in the Countryside

Chapter 637: Chapter 639: We, the Zhong Family, Have Wronged You During the day, everyone had gone out, and in the Yang family courtyard, only Xiaoxiao and Yang Ming were left.

The pair had just lulled the child to sleep inside the house when they heard Zhong Dalong’s angry roar.

”Why has my brother come?” Xiaoxiao wondered, patting the child as she spoke.

”You watch the child, and I’ll go have a look,” Yang Ming said as he got up to go outside, but as soon as he opened the door, he saw Zhong Dalong’s solid fist swinging towards him.

This time, Yang Ming didn’t passively take the hit but caught the punch with one hand. ”Brother, what are you doing?”

Zhong Dalong was totally surprised that his brother-in-law had caught the punch. His eyes widened with even greater fury, ”What am I doing? Of course, I came to teach you a lesson. What did you promise before? It’s only been a few days, and you’ve already brought back that illegitimate child from outside. What do you take my sister for?”

As Zhong Dalong spoke, he didn’t forget to swing his other fist, but it too was firmly held by Yang Ming. Yang Ming hadn’t expected the matter to reach his uncle’s ears, ”Brother, let me explain.”

”What’s there to explain?” Zhong Dalong’s fists tried to break free from Yang Ming’s grip, but to his surprise, Yang Ming was strong, firmly restraining him. No matter, he didn’t need hands when he had feet.

Just as he was about to kick, he heard his sister’s voice, ”Brother, can you not make a fuss? You’re disturbing my son’s sleep.”

”...” At those words, Zhong Dalong was stunned. What was his sister talking about? Her son? She had accepted that child? No, this absolutely could not be allowed. How could his sister endure such a great insult? Zhong Dalong called out to his sister in anguish, ”Xiaoxiao!”

At that moment, Mr. Zhong and Xiaoxiao’s mother also entered the room. Seeing them, Yang Ming quickly released his grip on his uncle’s hands, ”Dad, Mom, you came.”

”Hmph.” Mr. Zhong also had a stern face as he grunted coldly before passing by Yang Ming with Xiaoxiao’s mother, moving towards their daughter, where they saw the child sleeping, not yet a month old.

”Dad, Mom, you came about the child, didn’t you?” Xiaoxiao asked bluntly, considering her brother’s aggressive behavior and their parents’ grim expressions were enough indication they had believed the rumors.

”Daughter, what exactly is going on? Your mother is worried to death,” Xiaoxiao’s mother asked anxiously.

Xiaoxiao took her mother’s hand and said, ”Mom, the rumors aren’t true. Please don’t believe them.”

”Daughter, this child...”

”Mom, let me be honest with you, actually, I...”

”Wife.” The words hadn’t been completely spoken when Yang Ming interrupted, afraid that she was about to reveal her inability to conceive.

”Husband, I don’t want you to be wronged.”

Yang Ming shook his head, ”Wife, don’t say it, I don’t feel wronged.”

In the midst of their cryptic conversation, Mr. Zhong erupted, ”Yang Ming, stop interrupting, let her speak.”

”Dad, this child we found on the street. The reason we kept him is that I may never be able to bear children of my own, and I thought having a child would be good company for us,” Xiaoxiao blurted out everything that needed to be said.

”Sister, what are you saying? Unable to bear children? That’s impossible,” Zhong Dalong totally disbelieved his sister’s words, thinking she was just making excuses for her husband.

Mr. Zhong growled at his son, ”Boss, shut up.”

”Dad!” Zhong Dalong wanted to say more but seeing his mother giving him stern looks, he had no choice but to keep quiet.

Mr. Zhong sighed and then said to Yang Ming, ”Yang Ming, our Zhong family has wronged you!”
