Chapter 28 - 14 The Best Uncle and Aunt_2
"Let's go inside!" Sang Wan had no intention of continuing the conversation with Mrs. Li, pretending not to hear as she glanced at Shi Fengju, her eyes filled with apology.
"I am truly sorry!" Sang Hong said as he walked them into the courtyard and house, "Your sister-in-law was originally waiting at home, but she hurried out after hearing from our neighbor Dahai that our crops had been grazed on by the Li family's cattle. Please have a seat, I will go find her to prepare lunch!"
"Brother, why don't you sit down and let Liu Ya go check it out! I'm sure your sister-in-law will be back soon!" Sang Wan suggested, giving Shi Fengju a meaningful look.
Shi Fengju nodded and smiled, "It's still early, no rush, let's take a seat first!"
Shi Fengju secretly observed Sang Hong, not finding it surprising that after what had just transpired, a man like Sang Hong would stay at home while his wife went out to deal with the issue. Such an honest man, how could he ever confront others? What sort of character his wife must be!
Thinking again about the recent confrontation between Sang Wan and her second uncle and aunt, it seemed gentle on the surface, her face soft and smiling, but in fact, it was unwavering, her soft daggers hidden yet effectively wielded.
This family is quite interesting!
"Please," Sang Hong, upon hearing this, simply laughed and didn't insist any further, gesturing for Shi Fengju to sit down, while Mrs. Xu took the two little ancestors to the courtyard to play and came up to pour tea. Sang Hong cordially said to Shi Fengju, "Our home is humble and not fully equipped, please forgive us, brother-in-law!"
Shi Fengju humbly replied, "We're family, no need for such formality, big brother!"
