Chapter 15; You don't have to do that!

"Mommy, you don't have to work this hard! We have plenty of people who can take care of the garbage bin for us." They also held the handles assisting their mother to drag it through the pavement. They could tell it was too heavy and their mother must be strong to drag this thing all by herself.

"It's okay, we can do these chores once in a while, you know! We need to exercise our limbs and move our bodies as much as we can. Let's say it's another simple form of exercising." She softly spoke up, gazing at the three adorable kids who were doing everything possible to ease her worries.

"But mommy, don't you think it's too heavy for a normal full garbage bin? This can't be normal momma!" Huo Zhihao immediately doubted, feeling the heaviness of the dustbin as its wheels heavily rolled through the pavement.

Before she could say anything, Huo Ting Cheng suddenly showed up at the intersection of the pavement way, she hadn't expected to see him standing there and was facing in their direction. Was he expecting to see her there?

"Weren't you working?" She profusely blushed. She was getting caught red-handed and didn't know how to explain these awkward situations. She had just knocked someone out and even cruelly stacked her in the dustbin.

How could Sixth Master Huo believe that she was still Tang Fei, the weak and lazy girl he had married? How could he believe it was that timid but stubborn woman he had married? Today, she had committed so many wrongs that almost gave her away.

She bowed her head, gazing at the pavement floor, feeling guilty and, at the same time, hiding her obvious actions from him.

"Daddy, Mommy just wants to take the garbage bin over to the entrance gate as it has begun to produce some odor, she doesn't plan on running away! It's an exercise we are doing!" Huo Zhihao was the first one to speak up for his mother.

He didn't want his father to falsely accuse their mother, wronging her for nothing! She wasn't doing anything wrong at the moment. She just wanted to take the dustbin out of the compound, and actually, Tang Fei hadn't thought that this newly acquired husband of hers would probably think like that, and that's the reason he showed up at the intersection.

Huo Ting Cheng immediately understood his son was standing up to his mother. He didn't care what she did to them, but to them, she would always be their mother and yearn for motherly love.

"Yes, Daddy, I don't think there's anything wrong with taking the dustbin out of the compound and dumping this garbage out into that track!" Huo Minghao seconded, also bowing her head and gazing at the pavement.

They wanted to protect their mother even though they felt guilty for lying to their father! If she truly did have plans of escaping by using the dustbin, then they would tag along. They didn't want to be left behind.

"I didn't plan on running away, I just want to leave this dustbin at the entrance gate for the garbage vehicle to collect!" She hurriedly nodded her head, siding with her kids, but some heavy, groaning voice sounded from the dustbin.

Everyone gazed over to the dustbin; Tang Fei froze for a minute, keeping her head bowed with anger! She should have shut her completely! Did this woman have to produce sounds now at this moment?

"You don't have to do that!" He squinted his eyes gazing at the kids and their mother's bowed heads while drawing circles on the pavement with their feet. Their little actions were in sync, and no one would doubt they were their mother's kids.

"You know, we can just watch the garbage bin overflow! We can do it by ourselves!" She knew Huo Ting Cheng still doubted her and maybe thought she was using the dustbin to try and escape.

'Tsk, how can a garbage bin overflow when they cleared yesterday? Every day the guards clear the dustbins; there is no way you can smell a rotten odor!' he inwardly snickered.
