Chapter 129: Chapter 129 Liu Baishun’s Conditions
At this moment, Liu Zheng really had no interest in flirting with Zhao Cuihua in the courtyard.
No matter what, it was better to take care of real business.
So he cleared his throat and said, "Alright, Cui Hua, go wait for me in the little grove. I’ll be right there."
Seeing the somewhat anxious Liu Zheng, Zhao Cuihua couldn’t help but chuckle, yet she didn’t move an inch.
She frowned and then shook her head, saying, "I’m afraid it’s really not possible today. Moreover, I didn’t come to see you for that reason."
Just as Liu Zheng was about to get angry, Zhao Cuihua’s words hit him like a bucket of cold water, cooling him down by more than half.
He thought to himself, "Well, aren’t you something, Zhao Cuihua? Aren’t you the one who insisted on me taking you? Now, when I’m in a hurry, you’re suddenly not up for it. Are you kidding me?"
What now, playing hard to get with me?
Do you seriously think you’re the only woman for me, that there are no other women?
Liu Zheng felt annoyed inside and thought, "I’ll just wait a few more days, until my brother’s relatives have left, then will there be no place to vent?"
Hmph! I’m sleeping with my brother’s wife every day; who needs you?
As Liu Zheng was thinking, his face couldn’t help but drop.
Seeing his expression, Zhao Cuihua, sharp as always, understood at once.
She immediately explained, saying, "Little Zheng, don’t be mad at me! I came to you because I really have something important to talk about. But to tell the truth, I’m not just teasing you—I’ve been dying to roll in the sheets with you! But you know, my father-in-law, he sent me to find you, told you to go to the village committee, saying there’s something he needs to talk to you about."
"You know, I can’t exactly do that sort of thing in front of him, can I?"
Hearing that it was Liu Baishun who wanted him to go to the village committee, Liu Zheng couldn’t help but be surprised.
"He wants me to go to the village committee? What for? Did you tell him about my wanting to lease the wasteland?"
Liu Zheng was puzzled and looked at Zhao Cuihua as he asked.
"Of course! Little Zheng, could I possibly not take care of something you entrusted to me? I didn’t even take a bath when I got home, I just told him right away."
"Oh? What did that old bastard say? I bet he didn’t hold back any good farts, did he?"
"So, what do you think he said?"
With a giggly smile, Zhao Cuihua’s face was filled with amusement, and she teased him a bit.
Naturally, she didn’t want Liu Zheng to become impatient, so after the tease, she followed up immediately, saying, "That old geezer, after I told him about the matter, he didn’t hesitate at all and agreed right away, basically handing the wasteland over to your family to lease."
Hearing this, Liu Zheng was also taken aback.
"Damn! He actually agreed just like that?"
"Certainly, he agreed right on the spot."
"This...this is too agreeable, isn’t it? He...didn’t have any conditions?"
Liu Zheng couldn’t believe that Liu Baishun, the old man, would lease the wasteland to him without any conditions.
After all, this old fellow had always been opposing him.
This time, being able to smoothly agree to contract the wasteland to himself, he guessed they wouldn’t let him off easily.
"Of course, there are conditions, but these conditions, for you, are nothing at all, you could say they are inconsequential, and you will definitely be able to fulfill them,"
Seeing Liu Zheng’s very puzzled expression, Zhao Cuihua laughed again, waved her hand, and said, "What he means is, the wasteland can be contracted to you, but you cannot spread the word about the incident when Liu Kai forced me to sleep with you that day."
"Heh heh!"
Liu Zheng laughed out loud now, he certainly hadn’t expected that old geezer Liu Baishun to actually care about his reputation.
But when he thought about it, it made sense. If the village head’s son was actually trying to get his woman to sleep with another man, that would be a disgrace Liu Baishun could not afford to lose.
If the people in the village found out, not to mention Liu Kai, even his reputation as the village head wouldn’t survive.
In that case, there would be no place for them in this village anymore.
Realizing this, Liu Zheng couldn’t help but laugh out loud, saying, "Fine, that’s not a problem. As long as he contracts the wasteland to me, I’ll keep that matter buried in my stomach."
Liu Zheng agreed quickly; in fact, he had never intended to publicize the matter.
Previously, Zhao Cuihua had told Liu Zheng that she wanted him to place a big green hat on Liu Kai’s head.
If Liu Zheng were to spread the word, and everyone in the village knew,
by the time Zhao Cuihua’s belly grew large, wouldn’t the villagers first think of him, Liu Zheng?
Therefore, this was definitely something that could not be disclosed.
Since it couldn’t be said, agreeing to that old bastard Liu Baishun naturally followed logically.
"Fine, then you should hurry and take me to the village committee to talk to that old guy about the contracting details. I bet there are some details to be discussed, and a contract to be signed."
Seeing Liu Zheng agree so readily, Zhao Cuihua was quite pleased.
After all, she was the one who had helped broker the deal, so naturally, she felt very happy inside.
She had proved herself very useful to Liu Zheng, and thus matters between her and Liu Zheng were falling into place effortlessly.
"Alright, I’ll go with you now, but first, I need to give my sister-in-law a heads-up."
Hearing him say he needed to inform his sister-in-law, Zhao Cuihua couldn’t help but snicker and said, "How old are you? Do you still need to report to your sister-in-law when you step out of the door?"
Listening to her mockery, Liu Zheng didn’t take it to heart. He snickered mischievously and then said, "You should know, with you coming over to our house looking for me every two or three days, I’m afraid my sister-in-law might misunderstand and think you’re luring me away to roll in the sheets."
As he spoke, the mischievous smile on his face widened, full of mocking jest.
Zhao Cuihua didn’t take his words seriously and snorted. After rolling her eyes at Liu Zheng, she said, "What’s the big deal about it? Let them know. It’s not as if it’s something that can’t be done. Your brother has been lying in bed for so many years, and your sister-in-law has been in that state for so many years."
"If you ask me, the best thing is for you to take good care of your sister-in-law. That’s what’s right. Otherwise, if she looks for a lover outside someday, it’s only a matter of time."
Upon hearing this, Liu Zheng’s heart couldn’t help but skip a beat, and he felt somewhat guilty.
Still, he pretended to be tough and said, "What are you talking about? That’s my sister-in-law, you can’t talk nonsense like that."
Having heard Liu Zheng’s response, Zhao Cuihua giggled, then her expression suddenly turned serious. She lowered her voice and said, "You really don’t get it, do you? Women... are actually very simple. Care for them once or twice, and you’ll feel affection; three or four times, you’ll grow numb; but when it actually reaches five or six times, you won’t even want to stop if you could."
"If you don’t make a move, there are plenty of others who will. In that case, isn’t it better to keep the ’water’ in your own ’field’ and enjoy it yourself?"
