CHAPTER 614: CHAPTER 250: SYSTEM CALLS ME TO SAVE THE DAY (PART 7)_2

The previous writer, after time-traveling, profoundly demonstrated what it meant to be a "peerless virtuous wife," not only did she take care of all the household chores, but she was also extremely skilled at making money and managing resources.

Qiao Zhenbang never felt the pressure to provide for the family, and to maintain his pretense, he kept company with the actual riffraff in the area. He inevitably picked up some bad habits involving eating, drinking, and merrymaking.

With his wife managing everything at home, Qiao Zhenbang had both the leisure funds and time to mess around, so he really started to act like a hoodlum.

Qiao Zhenbang, being the male lead, had at least a sense of right and wrong and some shame.

So when He Tiantian looked at him with eyes like one would look at trash, he thought about his behaviors over the past year and suddenly felt incredibly uncomfortable.

The past him seemed to have gone a bit too far, indeed.

If a normal woman ended up with a husband like him, truly, not many could tolerate it.

It was as if He Tiantian didn’t see the shame written all over Qiao Zhenbang’s face; she continued to scold him without any politeness, "After money?"

"Hah! That’s an even bigger joke. When your Qiao Family married me off, did you pay a bride price, or build a new house? Not to mention the wedding feast—"

"Forget it, forget it. I can’t bother to mention these things!"

"I was such an idiot in the past. I never understood all this and foolishly thought that as long as I behaved myself, I would get what I wanted!"

"Now well, I’ve figured it out. I’ve married you, and there’s even a child of Old Qiao’s Family in my belly, whether I am good or bad, your Qiao Family has to take good care of me!"

"Your mother’s embroidery, the bride price you owed me initially, the new house, the dowry I brought over these past two years... your Qiao Family has to pay me back for all of it!"

"As for a divorce? Ha-ha, why would I want a divorce when I’m living such a comfortable life, able to eat chicken whenever I want, sleep in whenever I like?"

Qiao Zhenbang’s eyes bulged fiercely, and the whites turned red with blood vessels.

What was this woman "Jiao Jiao" talking about?

She, she was actually planning to latch onto the Qiao Family, and with such brazenness?

How dare she?!

"Why are you bulging your eyes like cow’s eyes for? What are you gonna do, hit me?"

He Tiantian, thinking that Qiao Zhenbang wasn’t provoked enough, deliberately stuck half of her face in front of him, "Come on! Come on! Hit me, just try to hit me!"

"Qiao Zhenbang, let’s see if you have the guts to hit me!"

Qiao Zhenbang:...

He really wished to give "Jiao Jiao" a beating just like the male lead in some classic Hong Kong film.

But, he didn’t dare!

His hands clenched tightly into fists, his knuckles cracking, the veins on his neck bulging, he still gritted his teeth and refrained.

Jiao Jiao was the daughter of the brigade commander, the Jiao Family had a good social standing, while the Qiao Family—

Damn it, why did he have to "dream" at this moment? It would have been better to have those memories only after a couple of years when the policies relaxed and life was freer.

"Hmph, I knew you didn’t have the guts!"

He Tiantian wore a face asking to be struck, cheap and irritating, but privately, she raised her guard.

Human hearts are unpredictable.

Although certain that the male lead wasn’t an ordinary person and could endure what others could not, He Tiantian still needed to anticipate the unexpected.

After all, the body she had traveled into was that of a woman, who had just become pregnant.

If Qiao Zhenbang truly exploded, and if He Tiantian wasn’t prepared, it was very possible she would get hurt.

He Tiantian circulated the Wuji Technique fiercely within her. The air quality in the novel’s world was much better than in reality.

Especially in the remote countryside, almost untouched by industrial pollution, Cultivation of Inner Strength here had even better effects.

"...Jiao Jiao, don’t go too far!"

Qiao Zhenbang managed to hold back his impulse to hit someone, but the anger in his chest was still burning fiercely.

Clenching his back teeth tightly, he forced these few words through the gaps between them.

"I’m going too far? Hmph, a filthy hoodlum like you who won’t even provide for his wife has the nerve to say I’ve ’gone too far’?"

"What? Do you really think I’m wrong? Then let’s go to the village courtyard and call everyone in the village. Let’s have the old, the young, the men, and the women all judge."

"Not paying a bride price, using the daughter-in-law’s dowry, a man unable to take charge outside— a woman has to manage everything inside and out... with all these issues, who would agree?"

"If anyone says you, Qiao Zhenbang, and your entire Qiao Family are right, I, Jiao Jiao, will kowtow and admit my guilt in public!"

"Do you dare to claim that? Do you have the face to say it?"

"Oh right, you might say, ’All this was Jiao Jiao’s own willing!’ Well, from now on, I’m unwilling! You owe me, and you must pay me back!"
