The Male Lead’s Wife in the 80s Chapter 29 – Could It Be That the Male Lead Is Also a Transmigrator?

Translator’s Note: Hi readers! I hope you have been doing well. Sorry I’ve been gone for so long. I’m currently editing old chapters to have better grammar. I’m not sure if I can upload new chapters consistently since school is really hectic for me, so I apologize.

As soon as the two villagers heard this, they immediately stopped in their tracks.

“Chi Yunchen’s wife injured someone? Is she that bold?” a villager curiously asked.

Li Cuihua hastily said, “Exactly, that monster is heartless. She…why are you pulling me? Why do you still want to help Su Man-er cover up the truth? What are you hiding? She wanted to hurt you, and you still want to help her conceal it.”

Li Cuihua glared at Chi Dahai who was pulling her. She brushed him away.

She strode out of her courtyard door, looking at the villagers. She urgently lamented, “My family’s Dahai visited his old mother next door, but who could have imagined that Su Man-er–that monster–would attack him without saying anything? That knife almost hurt my husband. If my husband weren’t lucky, he would be in King Yama’s palace hall now.” 1

The two villagers secretly clicked their tongues to themselves. They glimpsed at Chi Yunchen’s house. Chi Yunchen’s wife didn’t look like she would be fierce? How could she do such a thing behind everyone’s back?

Chi Dahai was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood.

What was this disgraceful woman foolishly chattering about? What would he do if her foolish chatter attracted their neighbors?

Once their neighbors came out, they would definitely mention how he had just peed his pants.

If outsiders found out that he was frightened to the point that he peed his pants, would he want to live?

He nervously looked next door.

With this look, he saw Su Man-er and Chi Yunchen climb up the courtyard wall.

Su Man-er sat on the courtyard wall and gave him a slight smile.

That smile scared him out of his wits, and he turned pale.

When he reacted, he wanted to run into his house. He thought that once he entered his house, the outsiders wouldn’t be able to see his wet pants.

But…

As soon as he turned around, a stone hit his leg. Instantly, his knees bent, and he knelt down on the ground with a bang.

Hearing Chi Dahai, Li Cuihua paused. She spun her head around, discovering that her husband had knelt on the ground. She quickly turned around to help him up. “Aye, what’s the matter with you?”

She saw Chi Yunchen and Su Man-er on the courtyard wall. As soon as her eyes moved, she hurriedly added, “Did Yunchen’s wife frighten you? Did seeing her remind you of the incident? Did you remember that she used a knife to attack you? Oh my goodness, you have that, that…trauma. Yunchen’s wife scared you to the point that you have trauma!”

She lifted her head to glare at Su Man-er on the courtyard wall. “Su Man-er, look at the good deed you’ve done. What have you done to your uncle?  I don’t care. You have to pay. You must pay!”

Su Man-er’s brows slightly furrowed, appearing wronged.

She looked at Li Cuihua and weakly replied, “Aunt, Uncle doesn’t have trauma. He didn’t act like that because he was scared of me. He must have not wanted people to see that he peed his pants, so he deliberately knelt on the ground to cover his pants.”

He peed his pants?

Because the light in the courtyard was a little dim, Li Cuihua didn’t notice Chi Dahai’s wet pants before. Now after Su Man-er told her, she looked down to take a serious look.

Once she saw Chi Dahai’s wet trousers, her mouth formed a complicated expression, and she appeared incredulous.

How could her husband…how could he pee his pants?

He still peed his pants at his age?

The two villagers peered inside the courtyard, trying to see what was going on.

Chi Dahai was so mortified that he wanted to die. He quickly covered his trousers with his hands and glared at Li Cuihua in front of him.

It was all this woman’s fault. This woman knew how to cause trouble!

Because Chi Dahai covered his pants, the villagers instantly realized that Su Man-er was telling the truth. Chi Dahai really peed his pants.

A villager smiled, “Chi Dahai, you’re this old, yet you still peed your pants? If this gets out, I’m afraid that people will laugh.”

“Your grandsons don’t pee their pants anymore, right? It’s surprising that you peed your pants. Tsk, tsk, it’s really unexpected.”

Chi Dahai, “…” The villagers made him extremely embarrassed. He hated that there were no holes in this place. How good would it be if there was a hole for him to hide in?

He ground his teeth hard, pushed Li Cuihua away, and fled into the house.

Li Cuihua watched her husband, then she looked at the pair at her courtyard door.

She knew that this pair would gossip about this incident in the village tomorrow because they were famous blabbermouths.

If the villagers found out her husband had peed his pants, what would happen to their family’s reputation? In the future, the villagers would mock her family.

She knitted her brows, and she suddenly turned to glare at Su Man-er. “It’s all your fault. You attacked him with a knife and scared him to the point that he peed his pants, otherwise he…”

“Aunt, I didn’t want to scare Uncle with my knife. But who told Uncle, Brother Yuntao, and Brother Yunhao to rob us? Since we didn’t give them stuff, they hit us, ok? They just grabbed a stick that was as thick as an arm to kill my family’s Yunchen. I was afraid that Yunchen would be killed by them, so I had no choice but to pick up a knife.”

She lowered her face, looking distressed and sad.

Hearing this, the villagers at the courtyard gate couldn’t bear it and said, “So she asked for it. I said that Yunchen’s wife looks educated and proper. She’s not like a shrew. It turns out that someone wanted to kill her husband and rob them. It’s perfectly normal for her to grab a knife. If it were me, I would grab a knife too.”

“Me too. If anyone dares to hurt my wife, I’ll kill him with a knife!” another villager agreed.

“You, you…” Li Cuihua was so angry that her face flushed red. She wanted to fight the pair of villagers.

The pair were on Su Man-er’s side. They believed whatever Su Man-er said!

The two villagers saw that Li Cuihua looked like she wanted to hostilely fight them. They clicked their tongues and quickly left, towing hoes on their shoulders. As they left, one of the villagers said, “Hurry and leave. If we don’t leave, Li Cuihua may kill us. Don’t you see her murderous intent?”

“Tsk, tsk, I see it. You say Li Cuihua’s family is really evil. There is not one good person in their family. From top to bottom, they’re all bad. Her grandsons are also domineering, often bullying other children in the village. The villagers all hate Li Cuihua’s family. Some people even say that their family is a malignant tumor. They want to ask the village head to clear away this malignant tumor.”

“It would be best if we could kick them out. Who would be willing to be friends with such people?”

The voices of the two villagers gradually drifted away.

But Li Cuihua, Chi Yuntao, and the others heard their voices.

Chi Yuntao was so angry that his face became ashen. He wanted to fight the pair of villagers. But in the end, he held back because the villagers had many men in their families. If he fought people who had backup, he would definitely be looking for trouble.

Li Cuihua was so angry that she was puffing. Their neighbors–those scourges–harmed them. If it weren’t for their neighbors, they wouldn’t have such a bad reputation! It was their neighbors’ fault!

When Su Man-er saw that the good play had finished, she turned to Chi Yunchen and said, “Let’s go down.”

Chi Yunchen nodded. He took the initiative, and he jumped down from the courtyard wall. As he stood below her, he stretched out his hands to her. “Come down. I’ll catch you.”

Su Man-er, “…”

Even though she needed his help to climb up a while ago, she didn’t need help jumping down. After all, she could jump down on her own from this height.

But…

Looking at his serious and earnest face, she lightly coughed. As soon as her body moved, she jumped down.

She steadily jumped into his arms, and her slender hands embraced his neck.

His hands held her body. He lifted his eyes, meeting her eyes.

For a split second, there was an ambiguous mood in the air.

Chi Yunchen’s expression was profound. He stared at her and was about to say something. But a voice from the kitchen said, “Third Sister-in-law, the sauce in the pot seems to be done. Should we scoop it out?”

Chi Yunchen immediately swallowed his words.

He looked at the kitchen, then turned to look at Su Man-er.

His eyes met Su Man-er’s eyes again.

He quickly let her go, putting her back on the ground.

His face fell slightly. He turned around and silently went to the kitchen.

Su Man-er, “…” It seemed like he was going to say something to her just now.

But he abruptly shut up.

She was intrigued by him.

What was he going to say to her just now?

As Su Man-er entered the kitchen, Xiao Jiayue pointed to the pot and said, “Third Aunt, this sauce smells so good. It smells as good as meat.”

He had been full. But after smelling the sauce, he seemed hungry again.

Su Man-er walked to the stove.

As she picked up a wok spatula and a large bowl, she tilted her head to look at Xiao Jiayue. “This sauce has shiitake mushrooms and pheasant in it. Of course, it smells good. If our Xiao Jiayue likes it, Third Aunt will keep some at home.”

“Wow, that’s great.” Xiao Jiayue immediately smiled, narrowing his eyes. “Let’s cook noodles tomorrow morning. The noodles added with this sauce would be especially yummy.”

Su Man-er, “Yes. This sauce is a perfect match for noodles.”

As she spoke, she saw Chi Yunchen who had come to her side, “If you get hungry, you can make boiled noodles yourself. Boiled noodles with this sauce is also very delicious.”

Chi Yunchen looked at the pot.

The sauce in the pot looked, smelled, and tasted amazing. Su Man-er had brought out the flavor of the shiitake mushrooms and the pheasant. The entire house was full of the tempting smell.

Chi Yunchen retracted his eyes from the pot and turned to look at Su Man-er. “En.”

Su Man-er made several sauces. After keeping a portion at home, she could still give Chi Yunchen two bottles of sauce.

Previously, she found two bottles at home. She washed and sterilized the bottles with steam. The bottles were now dry, just in time to put the sauce inside.

She put the sauce in a big bowl and let it cool before scooping it into the bottles.

After sealing the bottles, Chi Yunchen and Su Man-er returned to their bedroom, holding one bottle each.

After entering the bedroom, Chi Yunchen put his sauce on a table, turning around to pack his luggage.

Su Man-er sat down on the bed.

She frowned and remained silent for a while. She suddenly asked him, “Have you ever practiced that?”

Chi Yunchen paused, turned his head, and looked at her solemnly. “What did you say?”

Su Man-er said, “When you taught Uncle and the others a lesson, I saw that your posture was practiced. When did you practice? Where did you practice?”

But this was odd.

In the book, the male lead didn’t know kung fu.

Although the male lead was not weak, he did not know kung fu.

But today, he obviously showed that he knew kung fu, and his skill was decent.

Could it be that he was also a transmigrator? Could it be that he swapped souls like her?
