Chapter 244 Why did you provoke her?

"Hey, Bai Zhiqing, you already have a boyfriend, how come you're still so lazy? You even have Fang Zhiqing, a perfectly good-looking young man, cooking and bringing you food every day. That's outrageous. You should learn (teasing) from my sister in this regard."

I'm not bragging, but my eldest daughter is incredibly virtuous. She's skilled at everything – farming, chores, cooking – unlike you, who's so irresponsible and lazy, even worse than the lazybones from the Feng family in the west of the village.

Let me tell you, a man should marry a woman like my eldest daughter, who can manage both the household and the outside world. I often teach my eldest daughter that after a woman gets married, she should serve her husband well and make him feel comfortable. That's what it means to be capable.

Bai Zhiqing, don't you believe it? Even our ancestors said that young girls must learn the three obediences and four virtues from a young age in order to become a good woman praised by everyone.

The auntie bombarded Bai Nuo with questions, but her eyes kept glancing at Fang Meng. She already knew that Fang Meng's family was the best among the male educated youth.

In the past, Fang Zhiqing was always out and about, so she never had a chance to let her eldest daughter get to know him. Now that she had the opportunity, she certainly couldn't miss it.

Moreover, she had recently heard that this educated youth, Fang, had connections in the county and the commune. If she could win Fang over to be her son-in-law, she could then have him use his connections to get her eldest daughter a job as a sales clerk at the commune's supply and marketing cooperative. Once they got married, she would have her eldest daughter transfer her job to her brother. Then her family would be able to earn a decent living and might even be able to move to the city and become city dwellers.

The middle-aged woman grew increasingly excited as she thought about it. In her opinion, her eldest daughter was far superior to Bai Zhiqing, that lazy girl. She believed that if Fang Zhiqing were smart, she would definitely choose her eldest daughter.

Her eldest daughter is hardworking, capable, and has a large bottom. This way, she can not only serve her husband and take good care of the family, but also give birth to a son for Fang Zhiqing. This is the standard of a good wife.

As for dating this educated youth, it's just because she's pretty and it's something new; she doesn't take it seriously at all.

“I’m telling you, Fang Zhiqing, how can a man spoil his girlfriend like that? If my daughter were this lazy, even having her boyfriend serve her when she cooks, I would definitely slap her across the face. A woman should be obedient, able to endure hardship, hardworking and thrifty. That’s the standard of a good wife, don’t you think?”

"Hehehehe!"

The little girl, who had been sitting on a small stool with her head down looking at the table, suddenly laughed. The laughter was deep and had a strange, gloomy quality that gave people the creeps.

Fang Meng sighed softly, raised his hand and pinched the space between his eyebrows. He had spent two whole days trying to calm his little girl down.

"Why did you have nothing better to do than come and provoke her!" Fang Meng looked up at the bewildered woman, his brows furrowed, his handsome face full of annoyance, and his words were anything but polite, "Who are you? Have you lost your mind? My partner and I know your name, what right do you have to come here and blabber on? Do you think I don't hit women?"

Fang Meng rubbed his buzz cut in frustration.

Damn it! I wasted two days trying to win over my sweetheart, and now I have to start all over again. This is infuriating!

Fang Meng wasn't annoyed by coaxing his little girl; he was just annoyed by others constantly making her angry. He felt sorry for her and wanted her to be happy every day.

Just as I let out a sigh of relief, something flashed past my eyes, followed by a loud "bang".

As Bai Nuo stood up, he grabbed the small stool he had just been sitting on, and with the same hand, he slapped it across the middle-aged woman's face.

"Bang"

The solid wood stool landed squarely on the middle-aged woman's left cheek, making her head buzz. She straightened up, swaying and spinning in place, her eyes unfocused as she pointed at Bai Nuo, smacking her lips but unable to utter a single sound.

"hehe!"

Bai Nuo looked at the middle-aged woman who was spinning around in a daze. It was as if she had suddenly found her favorite toy. She smiled happily, her beautiful fox eyes were full of excitement, and deep in her eyes was a strange madness.

He stepped forward, raised his leg, and kicked the middle-aged woman hard in the stomach, sending her flying more than two meters away before she crashed to the ground with a loud thud.

Immediately afterwards, Bai Nuo strode forward, sat on the middle-aged woman's stomach, and slammed the small stool in his hand down hard.

"I've only been quiet for a few days. Who gave you the illusion that I don't dare to make a move?"

"Bang!"

"You brainstem defective, underdeveloped idiot, the Qing Dynasty is already dead, and you still want to give me that old-fashioned idea that women should obey the three obediences and four virtues? If you're so great, why don't I see you going out with bound feet?"

Bai Nuo smashed things and cursed as he did so. Suddenly, he grabbed the middle-aged woman's hair, pulled her head up by her hair, and looked at it carefully. Then, with a knowing look, he forcefully pressed the middle-aged woman's head down to the ground.

He grabbed a small stool next to him and continued smashing and cursing.

"Oh, so you didn't bind your feet but your brain, you stupid idiot. You're such a good daughter of the Qing Dynasty. You've been mourning your Qing mother for so many years. Even the chief eunuchs in the palace back then weren't as loyal as you! You idiot, you must be the offspring of some chief eunuch, otherwise why would you, a perfectly good human from the New Dragon Kingdom, mutate?"

"Bang!"

Fang Meng looked like he had a toothache, grimacing as he looked at the girl. He thought it was about time, so he got up and went over to her. He took the little girl's hand that was gripping the stool, bent down, and gently coaxed her, "Baby, be good. Let's not hit her with this anymore, okay? It's broad daylight. If we kill someone, it'll be hard to cover up the evidence."

The middle-aged woman, who had initially thought Fang Meng had come to rescue her, widened her eyes in disbelief upon hearing this, staring at the young educated youth in front of her, even forgetting to scream.

"Okay, go away!" Bai Nuo let go of the small stool and pushed it against Fang Meng's chest to keep him out of the way.

"Okay, okay, baby, don't be angry. I'll go to the side right now!" Fang Meng nodded good-naturedly, put the small stool behind her back, straightened up, and slowly backed away.

The middle-aged woman came to her senses and angrily shouted, "Ahhh, you two little beasts, I'm not finished with you! Bai Nuo, you little bitch, let me tell you, if you don't pay me three or five hundred today, I'm definitely going to complain to the commune about you!"
