Zhou Family Daughter-in-law — 8.3

　　”Dad, you are so strong…” She leaned close to his ear and whispered. Although this man who was as strong as a mountain was not as handsome as the city pretty boy, the feeling he brought was extraordinary.

　　”Yes. Our Zhou family is the tallest in the village!” Old Man Zhou looked proud. Not only was he strong and tall, he also had excellent physical fitness and rarely got sick. This was probably the only benefit of working in the countryside.

　　”Oh, what a pity… If I could have borne a child from the Zhou family, the child I’d have would have been tall and strong… What a pity for Si Nian…” Zhang Xiao Yan’s heart ached again. Old Man Zhou felt a tingling sensation from her scent, and his heart raced inexplicably after hearing her words. He quickly gathered himself, refusing to let go of his wild thoughts. He carried her all the way down the mountain and back home.

　　But what she said was like a brand imprinted in his heart, and he started to worry about it. After all, the Zhou family didn’t have a grandson now, which made him really worried about the future generations.

　　After her period ended, Zhang Xiaoyan’s heart, which had been silent for a long time, began to stir. There were several strong and majestic men living in her house, and it was really tormenting for her to live in an empty room. Zhou Gui used to hug her and call her his wife, but he had never been disrespectful to her since Zhou Sinian left. I guess he felt sorry for his brother.

　　However, this tranquility will eventually be broken.

　　Two days later, Zhang Xiaoyan received a package from the city, which was full of clothes. She had purchased all of them online. She paid several times more for the postage before the delivery person agreed to send someone from the town to the remote mountain area.

　　Even in this small, broken mountain village, it couldn’t stop her love of beauty. She dressed neatly every day, but in the eyes of other women in the village, she was just a coquettish slut. However, Zhang Xiaoyan never cared about other people’s opinions, let alone these village girls.

　　She changed three outfits every day. If it were someone else, Zhou’s father and brothers would also find it a bit coquettish, but towards her, it was different. It was simply because of their protective emotions. The only problem was that seeing her dressed like this every day made several single men feel itchy…

　　For example, right in front of you.

　　Father and brothers had just returned from work, washed up and went to the table. Zhang Xiaoyan had prepared a table of delicious food, and everything was perfect.

　　At this moment, she was carrying the chicken soup out and putting it on the table, and found that several people were staring at her.

　　She seemed not to notice the strange looks in the men’s eyes. She deliberately pulled up her red skirt and spun around in front of them, tilting her little face and asking, “Dad, does my new dress look good?”

　　”Beautiful, beautiful!” Old Man Zhou stared with his eyes wide open, and the other brothers were not much better.

　　She was wearing a red dress with a V-neckline that squeezed her impressive breasts, revealing two snow-white balls that seemed to be about to burst out, dazzling the eyes. Although Old Man Zhou thought her outfit seemed a little inappropriate, he also thought, she was a city girl, and city girls are fashionable. He couldn’t really let her dress like the rustic women in the village…

　　”This is the latest model…” She said with a proud look on her face as she handed them the leftover rice. They were so distracted that they couldn’t eat at all. They only thought she was more beautiful and delicious.

　　Zhou Gui was drinking chicken soup, but he couldn’t take his eyes off her. His sister-in-law was becoming more and more radiant. For so long, he had felt guilty towards his younger brother, so he didn’t dare to have any fantasies anymore. But once a man starts having sex, how could he hold it back? In the past few days, he was becoming more and more agitated.

　　After dinner, Father Zhou washed the dishes in the kitchen. This was what she had agreed with them: she was happy to cook but not to wash the dishes, and they had no objection, as they had washed them themselves at home anyway.

　　She watched Father Zhou finish washing the dishes, then she put her arm around him and started to act coquettishly, “Dad, there’s still half a chicken in the frost. Mushrooms should be growing in the mountains now. Take me to pick some mushrooms, and I’ll make some soup for you guys when I come back…”

　　”Okay, there’s no rush to work these days anyway.” Old Man Zhou didn’t think much of it. He couldn’t wait to have her make soup for them every day. Seeing that he agreed, she changed into some light sportswear, and then the two of them, carrying bamboo baskets, headed into the mountains.

　　Zhang Xiaoyan was so busy having fun that she didn’t realize the branches and leaves in the forest were thick and the road was slippery. Old Man Zhou was afraid that she would fall, so he asked her to hold his hand and used a long sickle to push away the thick leaves while he taught her to identify mushrooms.

　　She had only eaten it but had never seen it before, so she was very excited. However, she didn’t pay attention to her feet. She stepped on empty air and screamed in fear. Her body suddenly fell down. Old Man Zhou was also scared and his heart almost stopped beating. He just hugged her and pulled her into his arms instinctively. Then they both fell down the slope. Fortunately, there was no cliff below, but a pile of dense ferns as tall as a person.

　　”Dad, I’m so scared…” She slapped her chest, her heart pounding. Looking up, she saw Old Man Zhou’s eyes, bright and sharp, fixed on her chest. Looking down, she realized her tracksuit zipper had been undone, probably from the tumble she’d just made. Now, he held her tightly in his arms, her back pressed against the soft moss, his mountain-like weight pressing down on her…
