I’ll Butcher Pigs to Support You! 78p2

Chapter 78 p2

By the time Song Yugui returned home, she was met with a worried-looking wife.

She was stunned, thinking she was still unhappy about not being able to go to town. She went over and rubbed her wife’s soft, sweet face, coaxing her gently, “When your period is over, I’ll take you to town. You can’t be too tired now. Be good.”

Her hands had just been washed before she entered the house and were piercingly cold, making her shiver.

Hearing the familiar voice, so gentle and natural, a sense of fear and sourness suddenly rose in Shen Xizhi’s heart. She looked up with slightly red eyes, looking as if she were about to cry with grievance. Song Yugui was stunned and immediately at a loss. “Wait, weren’t you fine this morning? I said you couldn’t go to town, and you weren’t angry. What’s wrong? Why are you crying now? Don’t cry, don’t cry. Tell me. What have you been overthinking in your heart?”

She carefully picked up her wife, sat down on a stool herself, and placed her on her lap, holding her waist and asking in a warm voice.

Shen Xizhi knew that this matter could absolutely not be hidden from her wife any longer. But thinking of Song Xingchuan’s arrogant actions, she was both disgusted and afraid in her heart.

Will Yugui-jiejie have any misunderstandings because of this? No, she won’t. Yugui-jiejie will believe me.

Shen Xizhi wanted to speak but hesitated. How could Song Yugui not see?

She held her small face, her brow furrowed, and guessed to herself, “Did someone bully you? Or does your stomach hurt? Shall I go and cook you some sugar water?”

Shen Xizhi shook her head, holding her wife’s neck tightly, her mouth moving, but she didn’t speak. Instead, she immediately went to find her wife’s lips and pecked at them one by one.

Chi Xiangyue came in with her cousin to get a free meal and saw this scene. The two of them were both stunned.

After a long while, her cousin raised an eyebrow and turned to look at her cousin.

How could her cousin dare to look at her? Her heart had long since been praying to her grandmother and grandfather. Please don’t let my cousin learn from her. Please, please don’t let my cousin learn from her.

Chu Wantang only glanced at her and knew what was on her mind. She lifted her chin and snorted arrogantly, not paying her any mind. Instead, she turned to look at Song Yugui and Shen Xizhi and began to study them seriously.

It was a pity that the two of them had already noticed them when they came in and had separated.

Xizhi blushed and buried her head in Song Yugui’s embrace.

Song Yugui stroked her head, her voice becoming even gentler. “What’s wrong? Why don’t you tell me?”

Hearing her ask, Chi Xiangyue was puzzled. “What’s wrong? Did something happen today?”

She and her cousin had slept until this time and had just gotten up. They really didn’t know anything about what was happening outside.

Shen Xizhi didn’t know if she should say it, but since Miss Chi and Miss Chu were also her friends, she hesitated for a while and then said in a small voice, “It’s related to Yugui-jiejie’s cousin.”

She loathed Song Xingchuan and was now unwilling to even mention his name. Thinking of his look of pitying her for being wronged, she felt sick to her stomach.

“My cousin?”

Song Yugui didn’t remember for a moment and was bewildered. After she reacted, her expression instantly turned cold. “Song Xingchuan?”

Chi Xiangyue also hadn’t expected it to be related to Song Xingchuan. She immediately looked at her cousin’s face, thinking, This has nothing to do with me mentioning Song Xingchuan. You can’t slander me!

Chu Wantang’s expression also became grave when she heard Song Xingchuan. Of course she felt that Song Xingchuan was strange. It was impossible for her cousin to be so attentive to a person for no reason. It was just a pity that there was no evidence, or she would have definitely killed Song Xingchuan.

A living person was not as reassuring as a dead one.

Chu Wantang thought to herself.

It was her first time asking, “What’s wrong with Song Xingchuan, Miss Xizhi? Did he trouble you?”

Shen Xizhi looked at her wife hesitantly, biting her lip tightly. Thinking of the sword-wielding guard by Chu Wantang’s side, the words of complaint came out, filled with wronged tears. “He… he took liberties with me…”

“What!”

Song Yugui was furious. She stood up angrily, holding her, her face so fierce it was as if she were going to eat someone.

“Alright! I knew something was wrong last night! He really is not a good thing!”

Her face was a mixture of green and white, her gritted-teeth appearance as if she were going to eat Song Xingchuan alive, which scared Chi Xiangyue.

Chu Wantang was also a little surprised, then her face turned completely cold. “Hah, is he still thinking of passing through a field of flowers? He should take a look at what he is!”

If it weren’t for my cousin coming here to avoid the world, a man like that would never have had the chance to even look at her in his life. How dare he covet my cousin? And after failing to covet my cousin, he even goes to find a second one? What, does he think the women all over the mountains and plains are for him to choose? I, Chu Wantang, loathe fickle men the most!

Chi Xiangyue was also furious, her eyes wide. “He took liberties with you? He actually dared to take liberties with you? The heavens have turned! Xizhi, don’t be afraid! I’ll go and warn him not to appear in front of you again, or I’ll break his legs!”

Chu Wantang also had a cold expression, thinking, Why wait until he appears again to break his legs?

Song Yugui’s heart was about to jump out of her chest. From her cheeks to her ears to her neck, it was all red. She asked with a heavy anger, “Did he touch you?”

Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah! I’m going to chop off that bastard’s dog paws! So what if you’re the male lead? Is a male protagonist from a male-oriented novel so great? You can just take liberties with someone else’s wife because you’re the male lead? What kind of psycho are you!

Afraid that her wife would misunderstand it as that kind of taking liberties, Shen Xizhi’s heart was filled with disgust. She quickly explained, “No, he didn’t touch me. He was just standing outside, saying I’ve worked hard, and that I was forced into being a lesbian, and that he regretted not meeting me sooner…”

She felt uncomfortable just repeating these words. How could there be such a shameless person in the world!

Who is he? Why should he feel sorry for my wife? My wife doesn’t need his pity! And my wife and I are living a good life. What’s there for him to feel sorry about?

She was so angry she was about to explode.

After a long time, Song Yugui’s reason finally returned a little. She put her wife down on a stool and said with a cold voice, “I’ll go and find him and ask him what he means by this today!”

Chi Xiangyue also drew her sword, her aura fierce. “Right! Ask him! Why did he seduce our Xizhi!”

But she was stopped by Chu Wantang. “What are you getting involved in? If your uncle finds out you drew your sword to argue with someone, he’ll definitely give you a good scolding.”

Chi Xiangyue also didn’t care about her awkward relationship with her cousin. She pressed down on her cousin’s hand and held it, her clear eyes looking at her seriously. “A scolding is a scolding. I can’t just watch Xizhi be bullied for no reason.”

She still wanted to go but was held back again. Chu Wantang’s expression was faint. “You and I can’t cause too big a commotion in the countryside, lest we reveal our tracks. But you have to believe that evildoers will get their just deserts.”

The corners of Chi Xiangyue’s mouth twitched. “When did you also start to believe this kind of thing?”

“You have to believe.”

Chu Wantang only said this one sentence and didn’t say anything more. Liuzheng, who was outside the room, received a look and quietly left.

Song Yugui went alone, knocking on Song Xingchuan’s door with a fierce aura. The person who opened the door was Song Xingchuan’s mother. She managed to control her temper. “Auntie, I’m looking for Song Xingchuan.”

She wasn’t born to be a good person, and she had a reputation in the village as a well-known hooligan. Although she had improved a lot later, Auntie Shen was not in good health and rarely went out. She hadn’t heard much about her later good reputation and still regarded her as the hooligan she used to be, so she was a little nervous. “You’re looking for Xingchuan? What do you need him for?”

“I have something to say to him.”

With something on her mind, it was hard for Song Yugui to smile, and her cold face made her even more flustered.

Song Xingchuan’s mother’s surname was Shen, and the people around her called her Auntie Shen. She held her breath and said, “You… what do you want to say? Xingchuan is not here. It’s the same if you say it to me.”

“Auntie Shen, you’re an elder. It’s not convenient for me to talk to you.”

She couldn’t just point at Auntie Shen’s nose and scold her for not teaching her son well, right?

Although she really wanted to, she had been quite polite since she was little and couldn’t quite bring herself to do it.

Just then, Song Xingchuan came back. He had just reached his gate when he saw Song Yugui and was stunned. Seeing her unfriendly expression, he seemed to know why she was here, and his face turned a little pale.

Anyone could see that he was not at ease.

Auntie Shen frowned, thinking, Could it be that Xingchuan provoked this hooligan first?

Her heart became even more nervous, afraid that something ugly would happen.

Song Xingchuan said softly, “Let’s go and talk over there.”

Song Yugui said coldly, “Do you think this is something to be talked about outside? You have no shame, but I do!”

He hadn’t expected her to come to his door directly. He had thought… since the other’s family was just two women, they could only endure this kind of thing.

In the end, it was Auntie Shen who invited her in.

But she refused to leave, insisting on knowing what Song Yugui wanted with Song Xingchuan, as if she were afraid she would bully him.

Song Yugui remembered how Song Xingchuan’s mother in the novel had said that Xizhi was a fox who seduced men. A hint of malice also grew in her heart, and she said fiercely, “Your son is seducing my wife. Why don’t you go and ask him!”

Auntie Shen’s eyes widened in shock, and she subconsciously denied it. “Impossible! How could Xingchuan do such a thing? Could it be that you’ve misunderstood something?”

“Hah.”

She looked at Song Xingchuan. “The nonsense you said to my wife today, was that a misunderstanding?”

Song Xingchuan’s expression was extremely unnatural. Seeing this, Auntie Shen’s heart skipped a beat, and she felt that something was wrong. The next moment, she actually heard her usually steady and filial son say in a low voice, “What I said was the truth. If you hadn’t taken advantage of her, she wouldn’t have married a woman in the first place. A union between two women goes against the will of heaven. I don’t believe she’s willingly staying by your side.”

Song Yugui’s face turned even colder. She looked at Auntie Shen, her gaze as if to say, A misunderstanding?

Auntie Shen’s hands were trembling with anger. She had never known that her own son would have such bastardly thoughts, liking Song Yugui, this lesbian’s wife.

Ridiculous, too ridiculous.

Her body was trembling so much she couldn’t stand steadily. Song Xingchuan panicked and quickly went to help her but was slapped so hard he turned his head away.

Seeing this, Song Yugui’s anger subsided a little.

She said with a cold face, “Auntie Shen, I respect you as an elder. My family only has me and Xizhi, two women, with no elders to make decisions. I also don’t want Xizhi to be gossiped about. I don’t want to hear about what happened today from anyone else. Just tell me, will Song Xingchuan appear in front of my wife again in the future?”

After hitting him, Auntie Shen managed to steady herself by holding onto the wall. Song Xingchuan wanted to help her but was pushed away. She hadn’t expected her own son to have such strange feelings for a married woman. At first, she had thought… that Xingchuan liked that teacher’s daughter.

She had a very good impression of that hardworking girl.

But who knew that it wasn’t that girl, but the famous lesbian couple in the village? The gap was so great for her that she simply couldn’t accept it!

Her eyes were red. To be found at home by a junior who said her son was seducing someone was like throwing her face on the ground and stomping on it. She glared at Song Xingchuan, who was still unwilling and defiant, and gritted her teeth, agreeing, “Xingchuan will never appear in front of your wife again. He’s young and doesn’t know any better. Perhaps…”

“Young? I remember my cousin is a little older than Xizhi. The nonsense he said to Xizhi today really scared her. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have come.”

Auntie Shen wanted to find an excuse for Song Xingchuan, but she… she couldn’t find one!

She really didn’t know what was wrong with Song Xingchuan. He hadn’t come to his senses all year, and in the end, he actually liked someone else’s wife. He must have said some presumptuous things, or why would they come over directly and imply that he was seducing someone!

Song Xingchuan was very dissatisfied with his mother’s promise. He had just called out “Mom” when he was slapped again, crisp and loud. His mother said hatefully, “If you want your father to rest in peace in the netherworld, then shut your mouth!”

Two slaps with all her might were enough to make his face red and swollen. Seeing his mother bring up his father, Song Xingchuan finally shut his mouth with unease.

Auntie Shen forced a smile and saw off Song Yugui, who had given Song Xingchuan a good scolding. When she returned, she put on a cold face and forced herself to make Song Xingchuan kneel in front of his father’s memorial tablet. Just as she was about to scold him, her vision went black, and she fainted.

Song Xingchuan’s house was in a state of chaos.
