My Dear Wife, Please Be Gentle!-Chapter 87 - 88 Too Lazy to Have a Child_1

"They were wrong, but after all, we’re all family. We have to live together. Let your mother-in-law and second sister-in-law apologize to you, and then let’s put this matter behind us,"

Tie Niu said stubbornly, knowing that what he said wasn’t quite right.

If he were Fourth Boss, he would have turned his back on them long ago.

But as the village head, he had to ensure harmony in the village, so he generally urged reconciliation rather than separation.

"Folks, today my mother-in-law and second sister-in-law slandered me. If I don’t sever ties, who knows what trouble they might cause in the future? Please, everyone, give me some justice!"

Qiao Duo’er shifted her strategy, now she was just a little daughter-in-law, trying to manage the situation through a more indirect approach.

"Older sister, give Fourth Boss a break. It’s not easy for the child!"

"We all heard you admit it, you’re not a young person anymore, stop making a scene."

Many here were from the younger generation; for Wang Clan to make such a fuss really showed she had no shame. They just wanted to ask, aren’t you embarrassed?

"The Fourth Boss’s House didn’t pressure you, you agreed on your own, and now that you’re trying to renege and still protect your second daughter-in-law, it would be odd if Fourth Boss and his wife weren’t angry! They are not fools!"

"Fourth Boss’s Wife isn’t a fool anymore, how can you bully her?"

The villagers chimed in with comments here and there, embarrassing Wang Clan and Tan Yuancheng.

Little Wang Clan said annoyed: "This is our family’s business, what are you meddling for!"

She remembered that these people had followed her to find the undershirts, waiting for Qiao Duo’s embarrassment; now how did their attitudes change so quickly?

"Ah, so now even speaking fairly is not allowed."

"Second brother, your wife is no good, and you don’t manage her. Just because she gave birth to a son, she thinks she’s above everyone. What about us who have four sons? Shouldn’t we be soaring to the heavens?"

Wuwu... Why didn’t she have the same good fortune as Little Wang Clan?

Little Wang Clan had only one son and was nearly being worshipped at home, whereas she still had to work from dawn till dusk.

"You only have four, I’ve had six! Ah, just thinking about finding brides for them gives me a headache!"

That’s six dowries, six houses!

"Your husband is impressive, and your sons are sensible, what’s there to worry about not finding brides? Look at the Tan Family, those three lazybones didn’t end up as bachelors!" freewebnøvel.coɱ

"Isn’t there Fourth Boss? Without Fourth Boss, they’re nothing!"

"You’re right, if it weren’t for Fourth Boss saving up the land, who would marry their daughters into the Tan Family?"

"You’re saying they’re too lazy, too lazy even to have sons!"

His comment made everyone burst into laughter—it might really be the case.

Having sons is not something that happens just by wishing; it takes hard work!

Qiao Duo’er pursed her lips—had the topic drifted off course?

The villagers were mostly on her side, so if the village head wanted to gloss over the matter, he needed to think carefully.

Maintaining a harmonious atmosphere was right but considering the direction of public opinion was essential.

If the Tan Family’s elder couple acted so outrageously without facing any punishment, could that really satisfy the community?

"Grandpa Zhou, Uncle Tie, Uncle Wu, you all are respected elders in the village. Please speak a fair word for me, or else Fourth Boss might still have to support those three brothers of his in the future."

Academician Zhou stroked his beard: "I actually think this Relationship Termination Letter is well written. Fourth Boss is a good man who should not be bullied."

If good people are bullied, who would dare to be good in the future?

If every household was as toxic as the Tan Family’s, could life in Willow Village go on?

With the Academician’s words, the rest was much smoother.
