I'm dressed up as the timid eldest daughter, and the whole family has to listen to me!

Chapter 254 A few more punches are needed to vent my anger

Su Songchuan watched Li Shuer's departing figure and felt furious. He wanted to call out to Li Shuer to stop, but he was too ashamed to speak to her.

Thinking this through, Su Songchuan felt that Su Banxia had ruined his perfectly good day, and the more he thought about it, the angrier he became. So, disregarding everything else, he turned around, walked to Su Banxia's candied hawthorn stall, glared at her, and held out his hand, angrily saying:

"Give me back the one tael of silver I just gave you."

Upon hearing this, Su Banxia clutched her purse tighter and glared at Su Songchuan.

"Fourth Uncle, what nonsense are you talking about? Wasn't that money you gave me for the candied hawthorns you bought from me? You already owed me that money and should have paid it back a long time ago. Why are you asking me for it again now? Why didn't you ask for the money back in front of Miss Li? So you were just putting on a show. Now that Miss Li has run away, you're pulling this stunt. You're really shameless."

Upon hearing Su Banxia's words, Su Songchuan became enraged and lunged forward to tear open her purse.

Seeing this, Erzhuzi immediately stopped Su Songchuan. Su Songchuan was a scholar, how could he compete with Erzhuzi who worked in the fields all day? Erzhuzi easily pushed Su Songchuan a long way, causing him to stumble and fall to the ground.

Su Songchuan, his tailbone sore from the fall, grimaced and said to Su Banxia:

"Fine, Su Banxia, ​​is this how you treat your fourth uncle? I am your own fourth uncle, after all. If word gets out that you've done this, don't you know what people will say about you? You're still an unmarried girl. With your behavior now, I wonder who will dare to marry you in the future!"

Upon hearing Su Songchuan's words, Su Banxia couldn't help but clap her hands in approval.

"If that's the case, then that's wonderful. I never wanted anyone to come and propose marriage."

Then, Su Banxia turned to look at Erzhuzi, patted him on the shoulder, and smiled at him:

"Well done, Erzhuzi!"

Upon hearing Su Banxia's words, Erzhuzi scratched his head shyly, lowered his head embarrassedly, and chuckled a few times.

Erzhuzi had thought he had used too much force and was worried that Su Banxia would turn around and accuse him of hurting her fourth uncle. Unexpectedly, he received praise from Su Banxia. Erzhuzi was very happy and wished he could go up and punch and kick Su Songchuan a few more times.

Seeing that he couldn't get anything out of Su Banxia, ​​Su Songchuan got up, dusted himself off, glared at Su Banxia, ​​and cursed:

"You short-sighted fool, your grandma was right when she said you were a money-loser. If you had just said a few nice things about me to Li Shuer and made a better impression on her, wouldn't our Su family have been able to live a good life after we got married? Besides, don't you know what kind of person Li Shuer is? You embarrassed her in front of everyone. You really are a stupid idiot."

As he spoke, Su Songchuan glared at Su Banxia with a hint of grievance and scolded:

"I'll talk to your grandma about this later. If you ruin my good marriage, just wait and see how your grandma deals with you!"

After saying that, Su Songchuan left without looking back.

Seeing his expression, Su Banxia pouted and, mimicking Su Songchuan, stomped her feet, saying:

"Tsk tsk, I'll talk to your grandma when we get back! What's wrong with you? You're so old, and you still come home crying for your mother after being wronged outside? Shameless! You're someone's fourth uncle now, and you still talk like that. Besides, do you think anyone cares about the money you got by marrying into the family? We can live well on our own, we don't need you!"

After saying that, Su Banxia ignored Su Songchuan and turned back to selling her candied hawthorns.

Su Shiyan, while leading Lianhua to the market, spotted a jewelry stall. Remembering Su Banxia's instructions, he immediately pulled Lianhua to the stall and began selecting jewelry for her.

"Lotus Girl, this hairpin looks really good on you. Do you like it? And these earrings also look great on you. How about I get you a matching set?"

When Lotus saw the jewelry, she was so frightened that she waved her hands repeatedly. How could she easily accept such a valuable gift? Her marriage with Su Shiyan was still undecided. If she accepted such a gift now, wouldn't she become a laughing stock?

So Lotus Girl quickly pulled Su Shiyan aside and whispered:

“Brother Shiyan, these gifts are not suitable for me. I’m used to doing hard labor and don’t have time to carry these things. If I go out to work in our village with these odds and ends, people will laugh their heads off.”

At this point, Lotus pursed her lips and continued:

"Besides, these things are very expensive. If I accidentally lose one or go missing one one someday, I'll be heartbroken. So please don't buy me these unnecessary things."

Upon hearing this, Su Shiyan scratched his head, sighed, and said:

"Since you don't want these jewelry pieces, how about we go look at some fabrics and pick out a good one to make you some new clothes?"

Lotus was so frightened by Su Shiyan's words that she waved her hands repeatedly.

"No, no, I don't need to wear any new clothes. I have plenty of clothes at home. You see, I'm only wearing this outfit because I like it. I still have a lot of fabric at home that I haven't used. Don't worry about me. If you really want to buy something, just buy some food and supplies for Aunt Guihua and Banxia so they can have some fun."

Upon hearing this, Su Shiyan knew that Lianhua was reluctant to let him spend money, so he glared at her, grabbed her hand, and said firmly:

"No, I came here today specifically to buy you things. My sister told me before I left that she wouldn't let me go home until I've spent all this money. Just listen to me, I'll buy you whatever you like. Let's not think about anything else today."

Lianhua's eyes reddened upon hearing Su Shiyan's words. From childhood, her younger brother always got to choose the best things in the family first. Every time they went to the market, her mother would ask him what he liked and buy it for him. Her mother never asked what she wanted, always saying that as the older sister, she should always give way to her brother, and that she was an adult and didn't need to buy those little things.

Even Lotus's clothes are the result of many years of wear. If the sleeves get too short, she simply cuts a piece of fabric from her brother's old clothes and sews it on. Fortunately, Lotus is good at embroidery. Although the clothes are patched upon patched, Lotus can always find suitable scraps of cloth to sew on, and she also embroiders many patterns on them to make the clothes look nicer.

Now, Su Shiyan was looking at her so sincerely, asking her what she liked and what she wanted, so Lotus couldn't help but have tears welling up in her eyes...
