Zhang Dachuan's house is at the back of the village, with only four tiled rooms, a broken yard and three old willow trees outside the yard.
He has little memory of his parents, except that they were killed in a car accident when he was two years old.
Only his grandmother was left to bring him up.
A year ago, his grandmother passed away due to illness, and Zhang Xutao, a distant cousin from the same village, took the initiative to take over the task of taking care of Zhang Dachuan.
Everyone in the village knows that Zhang Xutao is a bad gambler.
With his character, Zhang Dachuan took the initiative to take care of him, naturally coveting the orchard left by his grandmother.
Soon, Zhang Xutao, as the only relative in Zhang Dachuan's village, successfully got the orchard left behind by his grandmother.
After getting it, he did not take care of Zhang Dachuan, but moved to punch and kick, only wishing that this fool hurry to die.
Later, he even used the money from the sale of the orchard to marry Jiang Wantong, a gentle and virtuous daughter-in-law who was the envy of everyone in the village.
When the two got married, it caused a huge sensation in the front and back of the village, and even the town and county had a lot of people come here.
Zhang Dachuan now remembers how stunning he was when he first saw his sister-in-law when they got married, the first time he had ever seen such a beautiful woman in all his life.
Especially the pair of eyes like autumn water, although bright and moving, but full of resignation and sorrow for fate.
Zhang Dachuan originally thought, sister-in-law will be the same as Zhang Xutao disliked him as a fool, but did not think, since the marriage, she took good care of himself, like a sister.
After the marriage, Zhang Xutao is still as bad as before, gambling not home, less than half a year to lose their own house, together with sister-in-law was forced to move to Zhang Dachuan's house in the tiled room.
Half a month ago, Zhang Xutao even because of the loss of red eyes, in the casino hands to beat people into serious injury, directly arrested and sentenced to imprisonment.
In the time Zhang Xutao is not at home, has been sister-in-law hard to take care of his living, the two people although living in straitened circumstances, but also with relatives like mutual comfort.
It can be said that without the careful care of his sister-in-law over the past two years, he would have starved to death in the village.
Recalling all the good things his sister-in-law had done for him, Zhang Dachuan couldn't help but secretly decide in his heart that now that he had obtained the Fox Immortal inheritance, he would make sure to let his sister-in-law live a good life in the future.
Thinking of this, Zhang Dachuan took big steps towards the house with anticipation.
Just as he reached the door, he heard the sound of rushing water coming from the house.
"Is this a flood in the house?"
Zhang Dachuan's heart tightened as he hurriedly pushed the door in.
At once, he felt the water vapour coming from the room, making him somewhat unable to open his eyes.
When he came back to his senses, he couldn't help but look ahead with wide eyes.
Only to see that in the middle of the room, there was a large bath tub, which was surrounded by hot water vapour, and in the water vapour, a hazy figure was wiping her delicate body with a hot towel while doing so.
Zhang Dachuan recognised at a glance that it was his sister-in-law Jiang Wantong.
Sister-in-law is this?
Gulp!
Although the two had been living together for almost a year, this was the first time he had seen his sister-in-law bathing.
No, I have to get out quickly, if his sister-in-law finds out, how will he face it in the future?
Zhang Dachuan was about to turn around and leave.
In his haste, he forgot that the basin used to wash his hands is placed here at the entrance of his house every day.
Clang!
Accompanied by a crisp ringing sound, Zhang Dachuan's entire body froze in place as if he had been struck by lightning.
At the same time, Jiang Wantong couldn't think of anything else, and the entire person immediately hid into the large bath tub turning around and inquiring:
"Who?"
Facing his sister-in-law's gaze, Zhang Dachuan knew that there was nothing he could do to avoid it, rubbing the back of his head and smiling awkwardly:
"Sister-in-law, it's me."
Upon hearing this, his sister-in-law returned with a face full of nervousness:
"It's you, Da Chuan, why didn't you tell me when you came back."
Thinking of how she had just been bumped into by Zhang Dachuan, Jiang Wantong couldn't help but have a blush appear on her face.
Although she knew that Zhang Dachuan was just a fool after spending this year together, but no matter what, Zhang Dachuan was also a grown man.
Thinking of this, she softly asked:
"Da Chuan, did you just come back?"
Zhang Dachuan sniffed and immediately replied back:
"Mm, just returned."
Sister-in-law then breathed a sigh of relief, he just came back, then he should not have seen anything, she was overthinking it.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but look at Zhang Dachuan with concern and said:
"Da Chuan, you should be hungry, you wait a little, sister-in-law will give you a bowl of noodles to eat."
Looking at his sister-in-law's concerned gaze, Zhang Dachuan only felt incomparably ashamed in his heart.
While he was hesitating whether or not to admit his mistake to his sister-in-law, his sister-in-law Jiang Wantong once again blushed and softly said:
"Da Chuan, go out first and let me change my clothes first."
Zhang Dachuan reacted and hurriedly said back:
"Good, good."
He was about to walk out of the house when a sudden sound of footsteps came from the doorway.
At the same time, an old voice came:
"Wantong, are you home?"
Upon hearing the voice, Zhang Dachuan and his sister-in-law in the house both changed their complexion drastically.
The person who came was actually Zhang Xutao's mother and Jiang Wantong's mother-in-law, Feng CuiFen.
If she saw the current appearance of the two people in the room, what would she think?
In the next second, Jiang Wantong panicked and looked towards Zhang Dachuan and busily said:
"Da Chuan, quick, go hide in the wardrobe."
Only then did Zhang Dachuan react and immediately hid in the wardrobe to the side.
Just after he entered the wardrobe, Feng CuiFen pushed the door and walked into the house.
Feng Cuifen was short in stature, had a pair of triangular eyes, and was a notoriously mean woman in the village.
Seeing the room full of water vapour and the big bath tub, she was instantly dissatisfied:
"This bitchy woman, my son has just been sentenced, she cleaned herself up so well, is she planning to go out to sell?"
Although she thought this in her heart, her mouth was full of smiles as she greeted:
"Wantong, have you eaten yet?"
The reason why her attitude was different from earlier was because she came to Jiang Wantong today with a plan.
Hearing this, Jiang Wantong smiled back:
"Not yet, mum, I'm just about to finish washing and go cook, if you're free stay here and eat together later."
Feng Cuifen gently shook her head and said:
"I've already eaten, I heard that your stomach and intestines have been uncomfortable lately, I purposely got a copy of traditional Chinese medicine from the village medical clinic, Dr Li, and have already boiled it for you, if you drink it while it's hot, you'll definitely be fine."
Saying that, Feng CuiFen took out a black medicine jar from her bosom, walked to the coffee table, picked up a water cup and poured in all the black liquid in the jar.
Then she picked up the water cup and handed it to Jiang Wantong.
Faced with the pungent black herbal medicine in the water cup, Jiang Wantong politely refused:
"Mum, my stomach and intestines are fine now, you don't need to worry."
Her gastrointestinal discomfort was three days ago, and it's all better now.
Hearing this, Feng CuiFen's face immediately turned cold:
"Elders give, can't resign, this medicine I drank before, it's very spiritual, guarantee that your stomach and intestines won't get sick again in the future."
Seeing this, Jiang Wantong also can't brush off Feng Cuifen's face, so she could only endure the pungent odour, and drank all the Chinese medicine in one gulp.
Seeing Jiang Wantong finish drinking, Feng CuiFen then revealed a satisfied smile.
She slowly said:
"Wantong, I actually have something else in mind when I came to find you today."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Wantong immediately said back:
"Mum, if there's anything you want to do, just ask."
Feng CuiFen nodded her head and after a pause, revealed her true intentions:
"Wantong, you and my family Xutao have been married for almost a year, during this year, I've always hoped that you guys could add a child to the family, but after such a long time, there's no sign of this."
