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

Chapter 264 I Will Marry No One But Her

Seeing that Wang Guihua insisted on having him choose an auspicious date, Old Man Wang nodded, wrote down two dates on the paper, and said:

"If you insist on having Su Shiyan marry this girl, then choose these two dates. This way, it will be better for your Su Shiyan. In the future, you should also make sure that this girl lives far away from her family. Don't always prioritize her family and neglect your own little family."

Seeing this, Wang Guihua quickly stood up, bowed to Old Man Wang, put the paper away, and said with a smile:

"I've remembered everything you said, Uncle Wang. I'll talk to my son about it. If the marriage really goes through, I'll definitely have to invite you to a banquet."

Old Wang sighed and said:

"Alas, fate is determined by heaven; there's no way to avoid this."

After saying that, he waved his hand, signaling Wang Guihua to leave.

Wang Guihua took the date written by Old Man Wang and said goodbye. As soon as she was discharged from the hospital, her heart sank. She had thought that Lianhua was a good girl, and if her son could marry her, their little family would surely prosper.

Unexpectedly, this Lotus Girl had a hard life, and even her son would suffer because of her. If the two of them really got married, there would be constant troubles in the future, and there would definitely be no peace. Thinking of this, Wang Guihua felt a little scared.

If it were really as Old Man Wang said, then her family's good days would be over in no time before they fell into the abyss again. Wang Guihua didn't want things to end up like that, so she hurriedly walked into her own yard. Right now, she couldn't make a decision on her own, so she could only wait until Su Banxia and Su Shiyan returned in the evening so that the whole family could gather together and discuss how to decide on this matter.

Thinking this, Wang Guihua walked aimlessly to the courtyard on Dwarf Mountain. As soon as she entered the courtyard, Aunt Wu greeted her with a beaming smile.

"Guihua, how's it going? Has the date been set?"

Wang Guihua shook her head in distress.

"No, no, sigh..."

Seeing Wang Guihua's sighing and complaining appearance, Fifth Aunt quickly spoke up:

"What's wrong? Is something the matter?"

Wang Guihua shook her head.

“Today I went to Uncle Wang to help me choose an auspicious date, but he said that Lianhua is destined for hardship. If she really marries into our family, she will cause chaos in our household. Alas, I really don’t know what to do. Right now, our son is determined to marry no one but Lianhua. What should I do, Aunt Wu?”

Aunt Wu sighed upon hearing this.

“I’ve met that Lotus Girl before. She seems like a wonderful girl, but it’s a pity she’s so unlucky. If you ask me, there are plenty of girls in the world. If all else fails, find another good girl for Su Shiyan. You can’t just settle down after meeting one, can you? Su Shiyan hasn’t met any other good girls, so he’s completely captivated by Lotus and thinks he won’t marry anyone but her. If you ask me, you should find him a few more women to meet.”

Before the two could finish speaking, Su Shiyan shouted from the doorway.

"Fifth Aunt, what are you saying! Why are you trying to find me other girls? Didn't I already say that I will marry no one but Lianhua? I've already made that promise with Lianhua, how can I betray her?"

As he spoke, Su Shiyan turned anxiously to Wang Guihua, who was standing to the side, and said:

"Mother, what are you up to? Didn't I already tell you? We've already discussed this matter and Grandma Sun even went to Luo Family Village to finalize it with Lianhua's family. Why are you going back on your word again? I really don't know when you became such a two-faced person! Could it be that she's asking for too much in betrothal gifts and you want to save some money?"

Su Shiyan stomped angrily to the table, plopped down, and stared at Wang Guihua as he continued:

“Mother, if you really can’t come up with the money for the betrothal gifts, then I’ll borrow it from my younger sister. After all, I’m going to work for her anyway, so consider this an advance on my wages!”

Seeing Su Shiyan's expression, Wang Guihua seemed genuinely worried, so she quickly stepped forward, patted Su Shiyan's back, and said with a troubled look:

"You silly son, don't talk nonsense. How could you speak to your fifth aunt just now? It's not her fault. Actually, I went to Uncle Wang's house today to ask him to help me look at your and Lianhua's birth charts. Sigh..."

At this point, Wang Guihua let out a heavy sigh.

"That old man Wang said that this Lotus Girl is destined for misfortune. If she really marries you, our family will inevitably suffer because of her. Tell me, how can I feel at ease letting you marry that Lotus Girl?"

At this moment, Su Hanzhang also came out of the house. Seeing Wang Guihua's troubled expression and then looking at her son's sullen face, she shook her head helplessly, walked to the table, and sighed, saying:

"Son, are you really determined to marry that Lotus Girl?"

Seeing this, Su Banxia put down what she was holding and walked around to look at Su Shiyan, waiting for him to speak.

Su Shiyan only then realized the reason for the situation, so he clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, and said:

"Father and Mother, I really love Lotus. After seeing Lotus, I don't want to have any contact with other girls anymore, nor do I want to go on dates with other girls."

Seeing how resolute Su Shiyan was, Su Banxia looked at him and said:

"Does that Lotus Girl share the same idea as you, wanting to marry you?"

Su Shiyan pondered for a moment, then nodded firmly.

"Lianhua told me that she wants to marry me. She must like me. I can see from her eyes that she likes me. She doesn't dislike me. Really, Mom and Dad, I really want to marry Lianhua. Please grant my wish."

As he spoke, Su Shiyan immediately stood up and knelt before Wang Guihua and Su Hanzhang.

"I guess what that old man Wang said hasn't come true yet, and we don't know if he's telling the truth or not. Besides, if he were really that capable, how come his own family is still living in such poverty? Don't believe everything you hear. Just because he said a few words, you want to break off my marriage with Lianhua. Wouldn't that ruin my life?"

Seeing her son in this state, Wang Guihua couldn't help but feel a little upset. She quickly went forward to help Su Shiyan up and comforted him:

"Good son, get up first, don't kneel on the ground, let's talk this out."

After Su Shiyan was helped up by Wang Guihua, he abruptly shook off her hand, looked at Wang Guihua, and said with a pained expression:

"Mother, please believe me. Lianhua is truly a good girl. If I can't marry her, I'll regret it for the rest of my life. I only love Lianhua. If you won't let me marry her, I won't get married in the future!"
