Seeing that Su Yunhe meant she wasn't going to speak up for him, Sun Da glanced down at the dagger against his neck, then looked up to meet Wei Kezhi's cold, icy eyes. He was instantly terrified, his legs trembling uncontrollably.

"I was wrong, I was wrong, okay? Don't scare me. I'll treat your aunt well from now on, okay? Please don't make things difficult for me."

Seeing Sun Da's expression, Su Banxia guessed he had backed down, but whether he would treat Su Yunhe well in the future was another matter. Su Banxia wasn't sure about Su Yunhe's current attitude either.

It's not good to escalate things too much, otherwise Su Yunhe will be in a difficult position in the end.

Su Banxia glanced at Su Yunhe and then said:

"Let him go."

Wei Kezhi put away the dagger.

Sun Da collapsed to the ground, panting heavily.

Su Banxia snorted coldly at his cowardly appearance.

"If you continue to treat my aunt like this in the future, I will personally go to your Sun family and deal with you!"

After saying that, Su Banxia looked at Su Yunhe.

"Auntie, are you really not coming with me?"

Su Yunhe glanced at Sun Da with disgust, then looked up at Su Banxia and said:

"Banxia, ​​thank you for standing up for me today. You can leave now, don't worry about me."

Since Su Yunhe had already said so, Su Banxia knew she couldn't force her to take her away. Even if she wanted to take her away, Su Yunhe's parents would have to intervene. As a niece, she couldn't overstep her bounds.

So Su Banxia raised her hand threateningly at Sun Da again, signaling him to behave, then glanced helplessly at Su Yunhe before leaving with Wei Kezhi.

She still needed to hurry up and meet up with Erzhuzi. Now that so much time had already been wasted, Su Banxia was afraid that Erzhuzi would get impatient.

Sun Da craned his neck to see Su Banxia and the other woman walk away before getting up from the ground, brushing the dirt off his clothes, turning around and slapping Su Yunhe across the face.

"You've really got some nerve, now you even dare to ask someone to stand up for you. What are you pretending to be pitiful in front of your niece for?"

As he spoke, Sun Daya picked up his eldest son, who was standing next to the cart sniffling, and threw him onto the cart.

He then got onto the cart himself and started driving the oxcart towards Sunjia Village.

"What a damn bad luck! I shouldn't have brought you out today. From now on, you should just stay at home and take care of my parents. You wouldn't even speak up for me when I asked you to."

With that, Sun Da lashed the ox hard with his whip.

"Don't you know that even a day as husband and wife is worth a hundred days of kindness? When it really matters, you're nothing but a piece of trash. I can't count on you to treat me sincerely anymore. Don't even think about coming out with me again, and don't even think about finding someone to stand up for you. Just wait until we get home, and you'll see how I deal with you!"

Su Yunhe sat silently in the back. After spending so many days together since their marriage, she naturally understood what kind of person Sun Da was. Although Su Banxia had stood up for her earlier, it only earned her more beatings in return.

But she was secretly pleased. Today, Su Yunhe really hadn't expected that her most disliked niece, Su Banxia, ​​whom she always bullied back at her parents' home, would actually stand up for her.

Su Yunhe felt that whether she was beaten or not was unimportant; as long as she knew that her family cared about her, that was enough.

However, Sun Da's mood was unpredictable, and he always took his anger out on me. I wouldn't say I'd get beaten three times a day, but I couldn't escape getting beaten at least once a day.

Now, Su Yunhe only regrets her bad luck in not finding a good husband's family. Not only can she not help her own family, but she also has to make her elderly parents worry about her every day.

Su Yunhe glanced up at Sun Da's retreating figure and murmured to herself:

"If only you had died just now..."

When Su Banxia saw Erzhuzi, who had sold out of candied hawthorns, she quickly called the two of them back to Su Family Village. Although Sun Da had indeed backed down earlier...

However, Su Banxia felt she had to tell Granny Liu about this, lest she find out what kind of life her daughter was living at the Sun family's house, and how she treated Aunt Cai like an honored guest every day.

Moreover, Aunt Cai was a matchmaker, so how could she not even explain that Sun Daqian had been married before and had three sons?

Although Su Banxia understood that if Aunt Cai had said those words, Granny Liu would have still married her daughter off for the sake of the dozen or so taels of silver in betrothal gifts,

Regardless, Aunt Cai concealed such an important matter for Sun Da, so she's no good.

It was already evening when the group arrived at Sujia Village. Su Banxia told Erzhuzi and Wei Kezhi to go to the small courtyard on Aizi Mountain for dinner first, while she went to the old Su family home.

"Grandma, are you home?"

As soon as Su Banxia entered, she saw Qin Shi sitting in the yard picking vegetables.

"Hey, isn't this the bunch of little bastards from the second wife's family? What brings you to our yard today? We don't welcome you. Now that the family has been divided and everything has been moved out, there's no need for us to keep in touch, is there?"

Su Banxia snorted coldly.

"You better watch your mouth, or I might lose control and slap you across the face. Where's my grandma?"

Before Qin could even speak, Granny Liu stormed out of the house, broom in hand, looking menacing.

"You brat, what are you doing here? Are you just hoping to drive me crazy?"

Seeing Granny Liu like this, Su Banxia wanted nothing more than to turn around and leave, but thinking of Su Yunhe's arms covered in bruises, she gritted her teeth and looked at Granny Liu, saying:

"Grandma, shut up for now, I have something important to tell you!"

Upon hearing this, Granny Liu's eyes widened in surprise.

"What nonsense are you spouting, and you dare tell me to shut up! You..."

Su Banxia, ​​too lazy to listen to Granny Liu's rambling, simply waved her hand.

"I went to the city today and saw Su Yunhe. I wanted to talk to you about her, but since you don't want to listen, I'll be leaving now."

After that, he turned around and left.

Upon hearing that it was related to Su Yunhe, Granny Liu forgot all about arguing with Su Banxia. She quickly dropped the broom and rushed to Su Banxia.

"Wait a minute, don't go yet. Tell me what happened to Yunhe, where did you see her?"

Su Banxia stopped in her tracks and looked coldly at Granny Liu.

"Now you're getting anxious? Why didn't you listen when I was trying to talk to you nicely before?"

Seeing this, Granny Liu quickly stepped forward and took Su Banxia's hand.

"Good granddaughter, just tell Grandma how your aunt is doing. Why doesn't she send any news home? I'm worried about her day and night, I can't eat or sleep well, and I feel so bad!"

Su Banxia looked Liu Pozi up and down and said coldly:

"You look perfectly healthy and energetic; you don't seem to be in any discomfort."

Granny Liu sighed and said anxiously:

"Stop talking about that. Tell me quickly, how is your aunt doing now? Is she living a life of luxury in the Sun family, with no worries about food or clothing?"
