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

Seeing that things were not going well, Lin quickly tugged at Lin Wencheng's sleeve and then said with a smile:

“Look at my nephew, he doesn’t know how to say nice things. He’s a straightforward person and he really doesn’t have any bad habits. Don’t be angry, I’ll talk to him properly later.”

After saying that, Madam Lin turned around and glared at Lin Wencheng.

"Banxia kindly poured you some tea, go and drink some water!"

Lin Wencheng seemed to notice the brow furrowing, and remembering his aunt's earlier advice to speak less and be more observant, he quickly smiled, nodded, picked up the teacup on the table, and gulped down the tea in one go.

"Banxia, ​​this tea you brewed is so delicious and thirst-quenching. I haven't had a drop of water on this journey."

Upon hearing this, Su Banxia hurriedly got up and poured Lin Wencheng a cup, which Lin Wencheng drank in one gulp. Su Banxia then got up and poured more water.

Lin, who was standing to the side, could no longer bear it.

"If you want to drink water, go drink it over there. Isn't there a dog over there? Go play with the dog. I'll chat with your Aunt Guihua for a while."

Lin Wencheng felt a little wronged, but he drank the water in his cup in one gulp and obediently got up and went to the yard to play with Xiao Hei.

Lin glanced helplessly at Lin Wencheng's retreating figure, then looked at Su Banxia and said with a smile:

“My nephew is a bit naive, but he knows how to love his wife. If you can be with him in the future, he will definitely listen to you in everything. Banxia, ​​I don’t blame your aunt for saying this, but you are not young anymore. You should worry about your marriage. If you find someone suitable, hurry up and settle the marriage. That way, your mother will be relieved of a worry.”

Then Lin turned to Wang Guihua and said:

"Second sister-in-law, our nephew is the most obedient of all. You see, Banxia is also a woman of strong will. If she marries into another family, someone whose background we don't know, she'll be bullied. As her mother, you know what kind of temperament your daughter has. Banxia is stubborn but soft-hearted. If she really marries into a family whose background we don't know, I'm afraid she won't be able to make it for more than a few years. If both of them want to be in charge, that will be troublesome. Second sister-in-law, am I right?"

Wang Guihua glanced at Su Banxia. Although she didn't want to admit that Lin's words made some sense, she could only nod helplessly when she thought of how Banxia and Su Mo used to bicker.

"You're right. If both people are strong-willed, it's hard to make it work. I wonder what Lin Wencheng's parents do?"

Upon hearing this, Lin picked up her teacup, took a small sip of tea, and then chuckled dryly a few times.

"Oh dear, Second Sister-in-law, don't you know my family's situation? My family has always been farmers, working in the fields. We're naturally hardworking and resilient. We don't have any extraordinary business acumen. If Banxia marries my nephew in the future, then Banxia will be the one who has the final say in this family. Banxia has a good business sense, and she can easily take this family out to do some small business in the future. Besides, they are all hardworking and resilient, and there's nothing they can't do."

Wang Guihua took Lin's words seriously and was somewhat tempted. Lin Wencheng was not only of average appearance, but he was also tall and seemed capable of working. If his family members were all easygoing, it would be easier to talk to Banxia after she married into the family. Moreover, with Lin's connection, her brother and sister-in-law would probably not make things difficult for Banxia.

Thinking this, Wang Guihua smiled.

“Mrs. Lin, what you said is indeed true. If Banxia can find a kind and easy-going family, she will surely be able to make her family's life prosperous in the future. We are all family. I won't lie to you. Look at our family, isn't our life all thanks to Banxia? If the whole family works together with one heart and one mind, then our life will definitely be good.”

As she spoke, Wang Guihua poured some tea for Lin Shi and continued:

"What I fear most is that the family members are outwardly friendly but inwardly hostile, only thinking about suppressing the wife, making her do this and that, pushing all the dirty and tiring work at home onto her, and expecting her to earn money outside to support the family. In that case, even if Banxia had ten lives, it wouldn't be enough to keep her from being tormented."

Upon hearing this, Madam Lin quickly smiled and nodded in agreement.

“Who says otherwise? We are all women, so we naturally know the hardships of being a woman. Don’t worry, as long as I’m here, if Banxia really marries into the family, I will definitely not let her suffer the slightest grievance. Besides, my brother and sister-in-law are reasonable people, and they are both very honest and kind. They would never make things difficult for their daughter-in-law.”

Listening to the two of them talking back and forth, seemingly about to finalize her marriage, Su Banxia frowned. At this moment, her mind was in turmoil, and she could only think about the man in black who came to her room that night. He said he had news about Wei Kezhi, but Su Banxia hadn't had time to go up the mountain to ask him about it.

Today, she had planned to send Lin away and then go for a stroll in the mountains by herself, and also to find out about Wei Kezhi. But she didn't expect that Lin would stick to her like a nail, and once she sat down she wouldn't leave. She kept trying to find her silly nephew to be her husband. Su Banxia was really having a headache.

Wang Guihua was very happy to see that Lin had made such a guarantee. So she turned to look at Su Banxia, ​​wanting to ask her what she was thinking. After all, Su Banxia had told her that she would make her own decision about this important matter of marriage, and Wang Guihua had agreed to that.

Wang Guihua initially wanted to matchmake Su Banxia and Lou Wangyue, but Su Banxia insisted that she and Lou Wangyue were just ordinary friends, and that she didn't want to marry into a wealthy family, lest she suffer mistreatment after marriage.

Wang Guihua was distressed about this matter for a long time, thinking about it day and night. Later, she finally figured it out and felt that Banxia was right. She had to have a long-term plan for her marriage. She couldn't try to marry someone of higher social standing just for short-term gains. It was better to marry someone of equal social standing. If something really happened to Banxia in the future, she could speak up for her in-laws and prevent her daughter from being bullied after marrying into the family.

Seeing that Su Banxia's brows were furrowed and her face expressionless, seemingly dissatisfied, Wang Guihua said to Lin Shi:

“Third Aunt, look at you, bringing your nephew all this way. Why don’t you stay here for lunch today? You can sit in the front and have some tea. Banxia and I will go to the back to make lunch. It’ll be faster if the two of us work together, so we can eat sooner.”

Hearing Wang Guihua's words, Madam Lin naturally knew that she wanted to take her daughter to the back to discuss the marriage, so Madam Lin immediately nodded happily.

"Alright, Second Sister-in-law, then I won't stand on ceremony with you. I rushed here before dawn without resting at all, and I'm a little hungry now."
