Su Banxia's brow twitched as she glanced at Li Ayu by the moonlight. This Li Ayu was truly restless; even with her belly so large and she was about to give birth, she still had the mind to cheat on Su Ye.

When Li Ayu saw that the person who came was Su Banxia, ​​she was so frightened that her face turned pale. Tonight, she had received Li Xiang's letter and sneaked out after Su Ye fell asleep. She didn't expect that she would be caught red-handed by the Su family so late at night.

Li Ayu broke free from Wei Kezhi's grasp.

"Let go of me! I'm pregnant! Don't you know there's a difference between men and women?"

Seeing this, Wei Kezhi quickly let go of her hand. He had no intention of holding onto a pregnant woman in the first place.

Li Ayu glanced at Li Xiang, then at Su Banxia, ​​before quickly moving a few steps to the side.

“Su Banxia, ​​don’t misunderstand. There’s nothing between us that’s shameful. He’s my brother from my maternal family. He just happened to be passing by today to see if I’m doing well at the Su family’s house. This way, he can send a message back to my maternal family so that my parents can rest assured.”

Su Banxia was amused by her lame excuse.

“Since he is your brother from your maternal family, please come into the courtyard. Your uncle should treat your family members well when they come, so as not to disappoint them.”

Li Xiang, who was standing to the side, was already sweating profusely with anxiety, his eyes darting around nervously. Although A Yu was carrying his child,

But now that Ayu is with someone else, it's unreasonable for him to come and meet her in the middle of the night. Besides, this is in her village. If he runs into someone with a fiery temper, he might beat him to death in the village tonight.

Thinking this, Li Xiang didn't dare to say anything more, but looked at Li Ayu for help. Seeing that Wei Kezhi was still holding onto Li Xiang, Li Ayu coughed a few times and said:

"Ahem, you should probably let my brother go. Is this how the Su family treats its guests?"

Su Banxia sneered.

"Wei Kezhi, let him go, I'll go inside and find my uncle to come out and greet the guests."

Upon hearing this, Li Ayu trembled with fear and quickly stepped forward to grab Su Banxia's arm.

"No, no, Brother Su has been working hard in the fields all day. How can I bear to wake him up? Let him get some sleep. My brother is in a hurry to catch the train to the city. He won't be staying long; he'll be leaving soon."

As she spoke, Li Ayu quickly turned to Li Xiang and winked. Li Xiang understood and nodded in response.

"Yes, yes, my sister is right. I'll leave now, I'll leave now. Please don't disturb the people in the courtyard..."

With that, Li Xiangzhun turned to leave.

Su Banxia said in a deep voice:

"Wait!"

He then flung Li Ayu's hand away and, looking at their terrified faces, angrily said:

"You really think you can fool me like a three-year-old? Li Ayu, you're living in the Su family's house and eating their food, and yet you're having an affair with someone else here. How can you live with yourself?"

Seeing this, Li Ayu quickly pulled Li Xiang down to kneel before Su Banxia.

"I was wrong, I was wrong. Please don't tell Brother Su. I truly love him and want to spend my life with him. I was just confused for a moment. I deserve to die."

As she spoke, Li Ayu slapped herself in the face. Seeing this, Li Xiang quickly stepped forward and grabbed Li Ayu's arm.

“Ayu, you are pregnant, so you must not get angry.”

Su Banxia glanced down at Li Ayu's prominent belly and sighed almost imperceptibly. After all, the child was innocent; he couldn't choose his parents. Thinking this, Su Banxia waved her hand and said:

"You should get up first."

Seeing this, Li Xiang quickly helped Li Ayu to her feet, and the two of them bowed to Su Banxia together.

"Thank you, Miss Banxia."

Su Banxia glanced at Li Xiang's arm around Li Ayu and frowned slightly.

Li Ayu, having come from a brothel, was adept at reading people, so she quickly pushed Li Xiang away.

"Since Miss Banxia has spared our lives, you should leave quickly and not bother me anymore. I don't want to see you."

Having said that, he turned his head to the side and refused to look at Li Xiang again.

Seeing this, Li Xiang looked anxious and was about to speak when

"I……"

But when he met Su Banxia's cold eyes, he couldn't say anything. He could only bow and thank Su Banxia and Wei Kezhi several times before turning around and leaving in a hurry.

Su Banxia glanced at Li Ayu and said coldly:

"I'm letting you go this time because of your child, but if I see you again, I won't be so lenient."

Li Ayu nodded hurriedly.

"Don't worry, I promise it won't happen again. I won't do anything reckless just for the sake of my child."

Seeing her sincerity, Su Banxia nodded and said:

"You go in."

Li Ayu touched her stomach, glanced at Wei Kezhi, and then stammered:

"There are some things I've always wanted to say to Miss Banxia, ​​but I haven't had the chance... you..."

Seeing her hesitant expression, Su Banxia grew somewhat impatient.

"Say what you want to say, Wei Kezhi is not an outsider."

Li Ayu glanced at Wei Kezhi, then looked at Su Banxia as if she had mustered up her courage and spoke:

"Since you asked me to speak, I will speak frankly. I am not saying this to sow discord; I heard it with my own ears."

As she spoke, Li Ayu stepped forward and whispered to Su Banxia:

“Your grandmother asked your eldest uncle about the house roof-raising ceremony at Dwarf Mountain the other day. She also said that if your second branch of the family didn’t invite her to the banquet, she would go by herself. However, your second brother couldn’t kick her out.”

Li Ayu patted Su Banxia's arm.

"You'd better be careful. Don't take offense at what I'm saying, but I don't think your grandma is a good person. She might be plotting to take over your newly built yard. I heard from your uncle that your yard is quite grand. I've never seen such a grand yard in the surrounding villages."

Upon hearing Li Ayu's words, Su Banxia frowned. These past few days, she had been so focused on dealing with that bastard Su Feng that she had neglected Granny Liu, who hadn't yet come to the second branch of the household to cause trouble.

Perhaps Li Ayu's words today were half true and half false, but if Granny Liu saw the house on Dwarf Mountain, she would definitely have designs on it. After all, Su Banxia knew Granny Liu very well.

It's no wonder that Li Ayu knew Liu Pozi was no pushover after only a few days in the family. After all, Liu Pozi was a complete troublemaker, constantly disrupting the peace of the Su family.

With Li Ayu's shrewd mind, she probably already realized that Granny Liu was not someone to be trifled with, so she tried her best to stay indoors and avoid confronting Granny Liu directly.

After all, her position in the Su family is not yet secure, and she doesn't want to cause herself unnecessary trouble.
