Farmer's Cannon Fodder: Listen to me, the whole family, change the plot
Chapter 76: Joy and Sorrow Again
As it turned out, Song Rending guessed right.
Because after Mr. Cheng noticed the chubby girl Su Laier, he didn't come closer at all. He just stood there and looked at her for a long time, then tilted his head and said a few words to the servant next to him.
Then, the servant ran away to do his work. Master Cheng stood there and watched for a while before leaving.
Master Cheng didn't get close to Su Lai'er at all, so Su Lai'er didn't even notice that someone was staring at her for a long time.
She had never met any other rich young men, and she thought that Mu Yan was her target. So when Mu Yan was about to drive her away, she pretended not to hear him, and followed Su Fuzhu closely, using the excuse that Old Lady Su asked her to look after Su Fuzhu.
She found such an excuse for herself, and it became even more difficult for Mu Yan to chase her away.
Su Fuzhu has become accustomed to having Su Laier around her.
After all, when she was in the village in the past, whenever she went to the back mountain to pick mushrooms, find fruits, or catch pheasants, Su Lai'er would always follow her with things in her hands. She had become accustomed to treating Su Lai'er as her own maid.
So, Su Fuzhu pretended not to see Mu Yan's gaze towards her.
Because Su Fuzhu still remembered what Old Lady Su often told her - she was still a child and she always needed someone to accompany her.
In this way, this awkward trio toured the entire Lotus Festival until someone from the Su family found them.
The reason why the Su family found them was naturally because something happened to Su Xishan.
Su Xishan was watching the lotus flowers by the Bi Bo Lake when she was accidentally pushed into the lake.
Because there were many people on the shore and it was very lively, there were people rowing boats to pick lotus in the lake, and some were even performing arts. In the midst of the noise and crowds, no one noticed that he had fallen into the lake.
Of course he did ask for help, but his cries were drowned out by the noise on the shore, the music on the lake, and the fireworks that were set off by someone in broad daylight.
By the time someone found him falling into the lake, he had no strength left and began to sink.
Su Xishan had choked on a lot of water and had been in the water for a long time. When he was rescued, he had already fainted and was even breathing in more than out.
A kind-hearted person sent him to the hospital, and his life was saved, but the doctor could not give an accurate information on when he would wake up.
After such an incident, even if the Lotus Festival was lively, the Su family had no mood to go.
Judging from Su Xishan's pulse, there was no major problem, so the clinic did not keep him. They just asked the Su family to take him home and take good care of him. It all depended on fate when he would wake up.
The whole family came to the town excitedly to participate in the Lotus Festival, but in the end they returned home with downcast faces, carrying Su Xishan.
Song Xiuhe almost cried her eyes out while holding her son.
She didn't understand. They all went to the town to attend the Lotus Festival, so why was it only her man who got into trouble?
The second branch of the family had never been valued in the first place, and now the head of the family, who could be said to be the pillar of the family, had turned into the legendary living dead. It was very clear to predict how difficult it would be for the second branch of the family in the future in the Su family.
Song Xiuhe felt as if she had swallowed a mouthful of bitter coptis, and when she looked at her eight-year-old son in her arms, her heart became even more bitter.
When Su Lai'er, dressed in pink, appeared in front of her, she seemed to have found a way to vent her emotions and finally stopped crying.
"You are such an evildoer!" Song Xiuhe grabbed Su Laier and slapped her, each time with great force.
Su Lai'er didn't dare to resist at first, but when she remembered that the clothes she was wearing were made by Xing and were one of the few, or even the only, new clothes she had, she began to struggle slightly.
And it was her struggle that made Song Xiuhe even more angry.
Song Xiuhe slapped her on the back even harder, crying as she slapped her: "We all went to the town to attend the Lotus Festival, why didn't you get into trouble?! Why did you give birth to a daughter? If you were a son, our second house wouldn't be without a pillar!"
Song Xiuhe hit Su Laier with great force and she cried and screamed loudly, so naturally, she attracted Old Lady Su.
Old Mrs. Su didn't feel sorry for Su Laier being beaten, but she felt sorry for the new clothes she was wearing.
The most important thing is, she still remembered to marry Su Laier to a wealthy family in the town in exchange for a considerable amount of dowry!
We can’t let Su Lai’er get hurt.
"Alright, alright, second brother!" Old Lady Su slammed her walking stick on the ground, making a loud thumping sound. She was very impatient and looked at Song Xiuhe with a bit of disdain: "Why do you blame Lai'er, a little girl? It's just that your belly is not good enough! Besides, Lai'er is more precious than you now! I was hoping to marry Lai'er off to a rich family in town! You are not allowed to hit her like this!"
To be honest, Old Lady Su has a lame leg and her fighting ability has dropped sharply. Song Xiuhe, who has worked hard for many years, should not be afraid of her.
But after so many years, Song Xiuhe was used to being bullied and didn't dare to resist Old Lady Su at all.
So even though Old Lady Su was already a weak fighter, when looking at the angry Old Lady Su and listening to her orders, Song Xiuhe always habitually stood there with her neck shrunk.
In this way, Su Laier escaped from Song Xiuhe's hands.
Seeing that Old Lady Su was willing to speak for her, she ran behind her and hid.
Song Xiuhe stood there with her neck shrunk, but she was not silent.
"Mom, who can like her if she comes like this?" Although Song Xiuhe was a little hesitant, she still expressed her thoughts.
In fact, Old Mrs. Su knew in her heart that with Su Lai'er's appearance, it would be impossible for her to catch a rich husband.
But she always thought that everything depends on human efforts, and with Su Fuzhu, a lucky girl, there would always be results as long as she worked hard.
She has always disliked Song Xiuhe's timid appearance. If Zhang Chuncao or Sun Cuixiang had said what Song Xiuhe said, Old Lady Su would not have been so angry.
But when Song Xiuhe said this, Old Mrs. Su became furious.
But before she could say anything, Zhang Chuncao came in with a smile on her face and announced the good news:
"Yes, it's a great event! It's a great event! The young master of a family outside our town has taken a liking to us and has brought four sets of betrothal gifts to marry us off!"
"Is he really a son of a town member's outside family? Did he tell me how much silver he gave?"
After hearing what Zhang Chuncao said, Old Mrs. Su no longer had time to pay attention to Song Xiuhe and hurried to ask what she wanted to know.
Zhang Chuncao smiled like a flower: "Give me twenty taels of silver! In addition to these twenty taels of silver, there are also four sets of betrothal gifts! We, our family will marry into a wealthy family!"
