I just want to die of old age

Uncle Su Zhiwen looked at Su Boqiu with complicated eyes, and was extremely jealous of his second brother who had always been inferior to him.

How could Su Zhiwu, who had no literary talent, was rude and uneducated, have such an outstanding son?

Su Zhiwu, Su's father, said excitedly: "Let's go to Jixianglou to celebrate today."

So the Su family and Zhao Lingyun left whispering to each other, forgetting about Su Zhiwen and the other two.

Uncle Su Zhiwen turned pale with anger when he saw this. He had originally planned to have some emotional communication with Su Zhiwu, but he didn't expect him to be so disrespectful.

In the days that followed, Grandpa Su often visited them under the pretext of caring about them.

He acted like a good grandfather, caring about the studies of the Su Boqiu brothers, as if nothing had happened before.

The eldest wife also moved to the county town not long ago, and would come to bother the family from time to time.

However, Su Boqiu just had a smile on his face, but there was no smile in his eyes. He did not have any good feelings towards this biased grandfather.

Su Boshen laid everything out in the open and spoke his mind directly, making Grandpa Su so angry that he left with a red face.

As for Su Yuzhu, Grandpa Su hated her so much that he didn't even bother to look at her.

Of course Su Yuzhu didn't care.

But after a while, the eldest wife no longer had time to harass her.

The uncle actually brought Xiao Taohong home because she was pregnant.

The eldest aunt was like a mad woman, beating little Taohong madly. Little Taohong weakly hid behind her eldest uncle Su Zhiwen, speaking in a delicate voice.

This made her uncle Su Zhiwen's desire to protect her increase greatly, and he devoted himself to protecting her.

As the uncle was protecting the baby, the two somehow started fighting each other. Xiao Taohong avoided dangerous places and just carefully protected the baby in her belly.

She secretly raised a smile at the corner of her mouth, and shouted: "Sister, don't hit Brother Wen, everything is my fault."

When Grandpa Su saw this chaotic scene, he felt his head buzzing. This was his most valued son, so how could he bring a brothel girl back home?

Grandma Su originally spoke for her aunt-in-law, as she looked down on prostitutes from the bottom of her heart.

I just wanted the child to be born and to get rid of this brothel girl.

Who knew that the two of them started fighting, and Grandma Su naturally stepped forward to protect Su Zhiwen, so Su Zhiwen left the front line without a trace, and the aunt and Grandma Su started fighting.

Grandpa Su's head felt dizzy and he sat powerlessly in the chair watching the scene, with an inexplicable regret welling up in his heart.

However, Su Yuqing was not at home. She was having a sweet date with Yu Wenhao outside, unaware that the Su family was in turmoil.

This kind of loud noise attracted the attention of the neighbors and soon spread throughout the county.

Not long after, Su Yuzhu heard about this and she choked while drinking tea.

This little Taohong is more capable than she thought. She directly entered the house. When her aunt knew about this, she must be very angry.

Su's father and mother looked at each other in disbelief. The noble and arrogant Su Zhiwen brought a prostitute home, and she became pregnant.

Su's mother quickly came to her senses and looked at Su Zhiwu with a vigilant look: "You didn't go to the brothel to fool around, did you? If you dare to bring anything dirty or smelly home, I will never forgive you."

Father Su Zhiwu had a strong desire to survive, and quickly said in a flattering manner: "Wife, I dare not go to those places. It is easy to get sick, and you are the only wife in my heart."

When Su Zhiwu was in the county town, he once saw a man who often hung out in brothels. He was suffering from syphilis, which frightened him terribly.

Su's mother Liu Qiuping nodded in satisfaction, but she still said, "You will be able to hold your grandchildren soon. If you dare to do anything wrong, I will take my son and daughter away with me, and let you be jealous."

Father Su agreed obediently. Although he was a bit chauvinistic in some aspects, he was generally a good husband who loved his wife.

Moreover, his eyes revealed longing for his grandson, and he wanted to hug his big fat grandson.

So the two of them changed the topic and talked about marrying wives for Su Boqiu and Su Boshen, the bride price, Su Yuzhu's dowry, and what to name the grandson to be born later.

The topic became deeper and deeper, and the two of them became more and more excited.

Su Yuzhu cleared her throat to break their fantasy, and said softly, "Big brother and second brother are still busy with the imperial examinations. It's not too late for a man to establish a career first and then start a family."

"I didn't say we're going to get married right away, so you can look for someone first."

"That depends on whether they like it or not. The future sister-in-law needs to be of a certain level of culture so that the two of them can chat with each other."

Mother Su looked thoughtful and asked tentatively, "Is there something wrong with your brother?"

"No, but based on my brother's personality, he will bring back anything he likes." Su Yuzhu hurriedly comforted Su's mother and dispelled her thoughts.

But you can't get married blindly, you still have to get approval from your two brothers.

"What about you? You're not young anymore, it's time to find a partner."

Su Yuzhu smiled awkwardly: "I'm still young, there's no rush. I heard that getting married too early is bad for your health."

Su's mother asked doubtfully, "Is this true? How come I don't know about it?"

"I read in a medical book that it is best for a woman to get married at the age of 29."

Su Yuzhu wanted to say even later, but Su's mother was a very practical ancient person and could not accept it at all.

This is the difference in concepts of the times, Su's mother thought thoughtfully.

Su Yuzhu looked at Father Su pleadingly.

Father Su hurriedly spoke up, "Yes, and Boqiu and the others are still taking the imperial examinations, so Yuzhu will be able to find a better partner in the future."

After hearing this, Su's mother agreed and gave up the idea. If there is no rush, then just take it slowly.

Su Yuzhu immediately breathed a sigh of relief. She was still a child and her body had not yet fully developed, so she could not get married.

This was the bad thing about ancient times: people got married early and then had children quickly. As a result, the children were born sickly and had poor physical fitness.

Even the mother suffers, and the childbirth technology in ancient times was poor, so giving birth to a child was literally risking one's life.

Fortunately, she had the spiritual spring water to save her life, and Su Yuzhu added it to the water she usually drank.

Su's father and mother are now in high spirits, and their physical weakness from their previous life of poverty and exhaustion has gradually recovered.

Moreover, Su Yuzhu still could not accept the ancient tradition of having three wives and four concubines.

Take only one scoop from the three thousand rivers!

She still hopes to find a loyal partner, otherwise she would rather be single.

If he fails to do what he promised, don't blame her for being ruthless and turning him into a eunuch.

Men still need to be trained, especially the men in ancient times who have the final say.

Su Yuzhu glanced at her mother, feeling guilty and unsure whether she could accept such a bold decision.
