Chapter 147 Quarrel between Sisters-in-law
"That’s up to you, I just said too much." Seeing the fire was almost out, Tong Yao prepared to leave, "My face is killing me from the wasp stings. I’m going to rest. As for poking the hive or not, that’s for you to decide!"
Turning around, Tong Yao immediately revealed a sly smile on her face. She was sure that even if they gave money to Chen’s sister-in-law now, she would not touch the wasp nest.
Any sane person would not willingly do such a thankless and exhausting task. The wasp’s nest wasn’t even near their own doorstep. Who would risk getting stung or suffering from bad luck just to do this?
"Let’s go, we’re not doing it anymore. Why should we? What if something goes wrong? There’ll be nowhere to cry." Chen’s sister-in-law turned around and walked past Chen Yanmei. She intentionally tripped Yanmei and then pulled her husband to go home. Life had just started getting a bit better these last couple of years. Why create unnecessary problems?
"Hey! Look at you, you agreed to poke the wasp nest, and now you’re retreating just because someone said a few words. You really lack determination. We live in a scientific society now, we can’t be superstitious." Brother Chen tried to signal his wife while casting a glance towards his sister. After listening to Tong Yao’s words, he was also starting to back down.
But just a while ago, after having a couple glasses of wine at his sister’s house, he had pledged to get the job done. If he left now without even seeing the wasp nest, wouldn’t that be a slap in his own face?
Even if he wanted to leave, he hoped that his sister would be the one to suggest it, so he could save his pride!
Chen’s sister-in-law glared back, hands on hips. "No amount of ’science’ justifies using our own Feng Shui as a gamble. If you dare poke that wasp nest, we’re getting a divorce when we get back."
