The Fat Wife of the 1980s Awakens

Chapter 172 Who are you fooling?

As soon as Feng Dongling saw Xu Xiufang's face, the words he had prepared were instantly stuck in his throat. He widened his eyes, his face full of disbelief.

How is it possible that this lady is...my sister-in-law?

Xie Chunyan was confused by this sudden change. She asked blankly: "Which woman? Who are you talking about?"

Feng Dongling was speechless for a moment, his face flushed with embarrassment. He hesitated for a long time but couldn't come up with a reasonable explanation: "Ah, that... this... it's actually nothing!"

He couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground and crawl into it.

When Xu Xiufang handed over the receipt, she also noticed something strange. She turned around and glanced back and forth between Xie Yi and Feng Dongling, finally fixing her gaze on Xie Yi's face, her eyes flashing with confusion and inquiry: "Brother Yi, what's going on?"

Xie Chunyan also gradually understood the situation, but her reaction was completely different from Xu Xiufang's. She completely believed the previous misunderstanding. She was shocked and stared at Xie Yi in disbelief: "Second brother, you...how could you do something to let down your second brother's wife?"

Xie Yi held his forehead helplessly, ignoring his sister's questioning, and turned directly to Xu Xiufang, eager to clarify the facts: "How is it possible, wife, I don't have any improper thoughts about any other women, let alone any ordinary friends. Don't you know me yet?"

His eyes were full of innocence and anxiety, and he was obviously confused by this sudden misunderstanding.

As for Feng Dongling, he was covering his kicked butt with a wry smile on his face.

Although he was telling the truth, from Xu Xiufang's perspective, even he himself felt that this explanation was too bizarre - "The 'woman' I was talking about was actually my sister-in-law herself."

"Who are you trying to fool?"

Xie Chunyan spoke before Xu Xiufang could speak, with obvious dissatisfaction in her tone.

She was always gentle, but now she was also angry because of this ridiculous misunderstanding. "You must be favoring your brother and making excuses for him! The two of you are singing the same tune, which is really disappointing!"

The whole scene became chaotic and funny because of this series of misunderstandings and explanations, and an indescribable tension and embarrassment filled the air.

"..."

There was a barely perceptible tremor in Feng Dongling's voice. He weakly defended himself, as if he didn't even believe that his words could convince anyone: "...It's true! Just now, Brother Yi and I were chatting outside. When he saw my sister-in-law flash into the market, he chased after her as if he was attracted by a magnet. And I, because of my poor eyesight, didn't recognize that it was my sister-in-law. I thought it was an unfamiliar customer, which led to this misunderstanding...Okay, it's all my fault, I admit it. But sister-in-law, this matter really has nothing to do with Brother Yi, please don't be angry with him because of it."

If not for this, he would have probably been drowned in Xie Chunyan's anger.

"..."

Xie Chunyan's face remained gloomy when she heard that. How could she not hear the loophole in the words? She was about to open her mouth to refute, but her thoughts were interrupted by the next scene.

Xie Yi ignored his sister's impending outburst. His eyes were fixed on his wife's face, with an unquestionable light flashing in his eyes. His tone was firm and sincere: "Wife, you have to believe me."

The short words seemed to have tremendous power, striking directly into people's hearts.

Xu Xiufang pursed her lips, and raised the corners of her mouth slightly, trying to suppress the smile that was about to overflow.

In fact, she had never doubted him. She was just racking her brains over how to make up that harmless little lie. Feng Dongling's explanation just gave her a way out, so she went with the flow and accepted this turn of events.

Looking at her husband's nervous appearance, a ripple of tenderness arose in her heart.

???

Feng Dongling and Xie Chunyan looked at each other, their eyes full of confusion, as if asking each other what was going on, were they angry and confused?

Xie Yi caught the subtle changes in his wife's expression, and his look gradually relaxed. He knew in his heart that she believed in him after all.

At this time, the market staff had already weighed the goods and were preparing to collect the fees.

Xie Yi walked forward quickly and settled the account neatly. Then he turned around and said to his wife gently, "Wife, let me carry it. This backpack is quite heavy."

His words were full of heartache.

"No, it's not heavy," Xu Xiufang refused with a smile, a sly light flashing in her eyes, "You still have to ride a bike to take me later, don't get tired."

The two of them walked out while talking, leaving Feng Dongling and Xie Chunyan standing there with confused looks on their faces.

A moment later, they hurriedly followed.

Speaking of cycling, Xie Yi suddenly remembered that he had originally planned to go home with his sister, but since his wife was already here, he naturally couldn't let her leave alone.

So, he turned to Xie Chunyan and Feng Dongling behind him and said, "Sister, you can take Lao Feng's car back later. Lao Feng, is that okay?"

Feng Dongling was overjoyed when he heard this and quickly agreed: "Of course no problem, I'm happy to do it."

Xie Yi glanced at him coldly, his eyes seemed to say, we will settle this account slowly later.

Feng Dongling suddenly felt a chill and subconsciously hid behind Xie Chunyan.

Xie Chunyan was still immersed in the previous chaos, her brows furrowed. She turned to Xu Xiufang and asked with concern: "Second sister-in-law, are you afraid of him? If you have anything to say, just tell me, don't put yourself in a difficult position. No matter how fierce he is, no matter how... that, I..."

She wanted to say that she could control Xie Yi, but then she changed her mind and realized that when Xie Yi got angry, he wouldn't listen to anyone, not to mention that she couldn't beat her younger brother.

After hesitating for a while, she had to change her words: "I'll let my parents teach him a lesson!"

Xie Yi felt mixed emotions when he heard this: "..."

Is this really his biological sister and not his wife's biological sister?

Xu Xiufang was amused by this scene. She smiled and said, "Sister, I trust Brother Yi. He knows how to treat me well."

Since Xu Xiufang said so, Xie Chunyan could not insist any longer, but her brows were still furrowed. She looked at her brother deeply, and suddenly her tone became unusually serious: "Second brother, you must be good to your second brother's wife. She is a rare good woman. You must not let her down."

"..."

Xie Yi was stunned for a moment, then nodded vigorously: "Yes, I understand."

Seeing this, Feng Dongling quickly drove his motorcycle over and invited her warmly: "Chunyan, get in the car? I'll take you home."

As soon as Xie Chunyan heard the word "Chunyan", the subtle feeling of discomfort in her heart surged up again.

Once upon a time, Feng Dongling always respectfully called her "Sister Chunyan". Since when, this name was simplified to "Chunyan", and she herself never noticed this change.

It was not until Feng Dongling confessed his feelings to her that she suddenly realized that those subtle changes were the accumulation of emotions.
