TFHAH -Chapter 003 Preliminary Plan

The Fierce Husband at Home4 min read3 of 4

The village they lived in was not actually that far from the town, but “not that far” was only true for people like Mo Yanzhi and the others.

Fifteen li—walking all that way on foot…

For Han Tingxuan, who was accustomed to BMWs and sports cars, that was ridiculously far!

And when he heard that they were going to walk there… Han Tingxuan felt extremely miserable.

Mo Yanzhi looked at him. “Your body hasn’t fully recovered yet. I’ll go to Niu Fulang’s house and borrow his ox cart.”

Han Tingxuan searched through the original owner’s memories and figured out who this Niu Fulang was.

After the original owner’s parents had passed away, his reputation in the village had become extremely poor. He had basically reached the point where everyone hated seeing him. Everyone, however, was quite sympathetic toward Mo Yanzhi.

Mo Yanzhi himself was a cold and indifferent person who was not very good at maintaining relationships, so there were actually only a few people he was genuinely close with.

Niu Fulang was one of those people he got along with fairly well.

But no matter how good their relationship was, in a village where almost everyone was poor, borrowing an ox cart was not something that could be done easily. After all, there were only three or four ox carts in the entire village!

Mo Yanzhi might be able to borrow one, but he would definitely have to pay a price.

And that price… was probably game from the mountains!

It was already early autumn, and the weather was gradually getting colder. Once true winter arrived, hunting prey in the mountains would become even more difficult.

Besides, Han Tingxuan had never been the kind of person who was willing to make someone else beg others for his sake!

What was more, Mo Yanzhi was currently his wife in name!

If he could not even take care of his own wife and had to make his wife humble herself and beg others on his behalf…

If Han Tingxuan really let Mo Yanzhi do that, then he would be far too pathetic as a man!

Thus, Han Tingxuan rejected the suggestion without a second thought.

“No need. We’ll just walk there. We can go slowly.”

Mo Yanzhi saw how firmly he spoke, so he did not say anything more.

After walking those fifteen li, Han Tingxuan became even more determined to start exercising!

Seeing that Mo Yanzhi was neither flushed nor out of breath while he himself was completely exhausted made Han Tingxuan feel utterly miserable.

It was seriously damaging to a grown man’s pride!

They finally arrived at the town. Seeing how tired Han Tingxuan looked, Mo Yanzhi could not help saying, “Let’s find somewhere to sit down and rest for a while. I still have a few copper coins with me. We can have a bowl of tea.”

Han Tingxuan thought about it, then nodded.

“All right.”

Taking a break was only part of the reason. A tea stall like this was also a good place to listen for news.

Although there was nothing specific he wanted to inquire about, as the saying went, business opportunities could be found anywhere.

Although he had the original owner’s memories, he still knew far too little about this world.

After all, the original owner had been such a good-for-nothing, so listening and learning more was necessary!

Mo Yanzhi nodded and led Han Tingxuan toward a tea stall.

Although this world did not have the rule that ge’er were forbidden from going outside, the people who actually conducted business were all men.

If a household’s fulang—a male spouse—showed his face in public and conducted business, it was usually because the man of the household was incapable of supporting the family.

Therefore, ge’er who showed their faces in public were also looked down upon.

“Boss, one bowl of tea,” Mo Yanzhi said after sitting down.

The owner quickly brought over a bowl of tea.

Looking at the bowl that had been placed in front of him, and then at the completely empty space in front of Mo Yanzhi, Han Tingxuan truly did not know what to say.

It really was all for his sake!

Otherwise, Mo Yanzhi probably would never have come here to waste even a single copper coin, would he?

Han Tingxuan secretly sighed in his heart.

He did not say anything, but his determination to become wealthy only grew stronger.

“Come on, big brother got paid. I’ll take you to Weizi Restaurant for some good food.”

“Really? The signature dish at Weizi Restaurant, spicy chicken, is really delicious! I’ve heard so many people talk about it. Big brother, are we really going?”

“You little brat. When has your big brother ever lied to you?”

“Hehe.”

A man led a young boy away.

Han Tingxuan blinked.

And just like that, he came up with a preliminary plan…
