Before long, Lou Wangyue's carriage arrived in front of the oxcart. Lou Wangyue got out of the carriage and smiled when she saw Su Banxia.

"Banxia, ​​I was held up by some things at the shop today, so I didn't come to see you earlier. By the way, do you have anything left? I want to buy some to let the shop assistants try. I've been wanting to buy some for a while, but you always sell out. You must leave some for me today."

Upon seeing her important client arrive, Su Banxia smiled and said:

“You really came at the right time today. We were just about to head back when it looked like it was about to rain. I don’t have much left on my stall, so I’ve sorted it all out and packed it up for you. Take it back and let the shop assistants try it.”

Lou Wangyue nodded with a smile.

"Okay, I'll take them all."

Su Banxia didn't waste any time and immediately wrapped up the remaining food, handing it to Lou Wangyue.

Lou Wangyue smiled as she took the items and then handed some silver to Su Banxia.

"It's getting late, and the weather looks bad. You should head back quickly so you don't get soaked on the way."

Su Banxia nodded and got onto the oxcart, urging Uncle Niu to leave.

Lou Wangyue stood there smiling as she watched Su Banxia leave. Seeing this, Lianhua nudged Su Banxia's arm and said with a smile:

"Banxia, ​​I think that young master Lou treats you quite well, and he seems like a nice person."

Su Banxia smiled slightly when she saw Lianhua say that.

"Yes, he's a really nice person."

Seeing that Su Banxia also seemed interested in gazing at the moon from the tower, Lianhua happily exclaimed:

"Banxia, ​​I think that young master Lou is interested in you. The two of you just haven't made a move on, you're both still shy. After all, you're still young and don't understand these things."

Su Banxia smiled helplessly upon hearing this, raising an eyebrow at Lianhua.

"Sister-in-law, judging from your words, you know a lot about these things?"

Lotus seemed to realize she had said something wrong, so her face flushed red and she lowered her head, stealing a glance at Su Shiyan sitting in front.

"I didn't understand before either, but after marrying your elder brother, I've come to understand a little..."

Su Banxia shook her head helplessly.

“Sister-in-law, the relationship between me and Lou Wangyue is different from the relationship between you and my elder brother.”

Hearing Su Banxia's words, Lianhua felt a little anxious. She was afraid that Su Banxia might miss out on such a good marriage opportunity as Lou Wangyue because she was young and embarrassed.

So Lianhua grabbed Su Banxia's hand and said urgently:

"Banxia, ​​you can't make a mistake at this crucial moment. Isn't love between men and women just about the same thing? What's so different about it? I can see that Young Master Lou is also very fond of you. Since you also think that Young Master Lou is a good person, then the two of you should take it a step further and settle down as soon as possible. Now you two are not young anymore, and it's time to discuss marriage. You are too young to talk about this, but your sister-in-law has seen it all. You can't miss out on such a good match just because you're shy. There are countless young girls eyeing Young Master Lou who are eager to marry him."

Su Banxia smiled.

“Sister-in-law, you know Lou Wangyue’s background. With a family background like Lou Wangyue’s, what kind of noble lady couldn’t she marry? Why would she get so involved with a girl like me from the fields?”

"But, but Young Master Lou treats you differently from others. Anyone with eyes can see that. Besides, although your family background is not as good as Young Master Lou's, you are still an excellent girl. There are few good girls like you. Even those daughters of noble families cannot compare to you."

Seeing that Lianhua was praising her so highly, Su Banxia sighed helplessly.

"Hey, sister-in-law, have you ever seen what those young ladies from prominent families in the capital are like?"

Upon hearing this, Lotus paused for a moment, then shook her head somewhat guiltily.

"Although I've never seen what those ladies from noble families look like, in my heart you are the best girl, more than good enough for anyone. Banxia, ​​believe me, you must not underestimate yourself."

Su Banxia patted Lianhua's hand and said with a smile:

"Sister-in-law, don't worry about me and Lou Wangyue. We both know what we're doing."

Seeing that Su Banxia had already said this, Lianhua couldn't persuade her any further and could only nod helplessly.

"Yes, I understand, Banxia. You have your own ideas, but if there are things you're really unsure about, you can also discuss them with me. Although I'm not as knowledgeable as you, I can still help you sort things out."

Su Banxia said with a smile:

"Okay, sister-in-law, I understand. Thank you for your concern."

As the two were talking, a torrential downpour suddenly began. Seeing that it was raining before they even reached Su Family Village, Su Banxia grew anxious and quickly picked up the iron pot, handing it to Tie Niu, who was sitting next to Uncle Niu, saying:

"Tie Niu, you shield Uncle Niu from the rain. He's getting old and can't get wet. Let him drive the oxcart properly."

Tie Niu didn't dare to delay, so he took the iron pot and raised his hand to block Uncle Niu's head.

Su Banxia took two more baskets, gave one to Lianhua, and kept one for herself, putting it on her head. She then said to Erzhuzi and Su Shiyan:

"You two use your hands to shield yourselves from the rain. This is all we have right now. Just bear with it, we'll be in the village soon."

The two didn't say much, they just nodded in agreement.

After Uncle Niu's oxcart finally arrived at Su Family Village despite the rain, a sudden clap of thunder startled Lianhua, making her stomach tighten. She immediately reached out and grabbed Su Banxia's hand, who was sitting next to her.

Seeing that she seemed frightened, Su Banxia quickly comforted her:

"Sister-in-law, don't be afraid, it's alright, it's alright, we're all home now."

Lotus isn't usually this timid, but lately, she's become incredibly frightened by even the slightest noise. And each time she's startled, she feels a tightness in her stomach, a bit uncomfortable. Now that she's calmed down, Lotus smiled and said:

"It's alright, I'm not that timid. It's just that a sudden loud noise caught me off guard."

When everyone arrived at the small courtyard on Dwarf Mountain, they all jumped out of the car to help move things. Aunt Wu and Wang Guihua, who were busy in the courtyard, also ran out to help move things into the house.

After everyone finished moving, Tie Niu and the others left. Seeing that the rain was going to continue until tomorrow, they probably wouldn't be able to set up their stall tomorrow, so there was no need to prepare materials in advance. Therefore, Su Banxia also gave Aunt Wu and the others a day off, letting them go home early so that the road wouldn't be even more difficult to walk on when the rain got heavier.

Just as Aunt Wu and the others left, and Wang Guihua and Su Shiyan went back inside, leaving Su Banxia alone in the yard, preparing to call Xiao Hei upstairs to take shelter from the rain, there was suddenly another urgent knocking on the door.

Su Banxia frowned slightly. With such heavy rain at this time, who would come knocking on the door?
