Chapter 440 - 429: The Rumor Starts with You
Manbao, standing inside the house, was also somewhat stunned. When she belatedly realized what had happened, she guiltily raised her little hand and said, "Dad, Mom, I think I know why..."
Manbao recounted the incident of meeting someone when they were seeing off Old Master Bai, and then said, "It must have been Zhou Sanqi who said it. Dad, Mom, he was the only one outside at that time, and he was the one who asked me."
The couple was silent for a moment, and Old Zhou was so angry his teeth itched, "That Sanqi, just like his mother, so gossipy. He dares to spread rumors about me. Just wait until I beat him up."
Ms. Qian wasn’t angry anymore, but still gave him a sidelong glance and said, "What kind of uncle bullies his nephew like that?"
Manbao then offered her dad a suggestion, "Dad, let Four go beat him up!"
Thinking it over, she felt it wasn’t a good idea, so before Old Zhou could speak, she added, "He’s older than Four, so Four definitely won’t be able to beat him. Let Second Brother and Third Brother go too."
The brothers, who were listening outside by the corner of the wall: ...
Zhou Dalang got up, drove all his younger brothers away, and then left himself.
Never mind, as long as Dad and Mom don’t argue, that’s fine.
The sudden loud voices, coupled with the meaningful looks exchanged by their wives, had all the brothers on edge, fearing that their parents were going to start arguing again.
Manbao, carefree Datou, and others didn’t know, but their brothers were aware. In earlier times, Dad and Mom had often argued fiercely.
