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

Seeing Liu Pozi's agitated state, Su Banxia shook her head helplessly, stood up, and said:

"As for why my aunt won't see you and why she doesn't want to stay, you can figure that out yourself. It's getting late, I need to go home."

After saying that, Su Banxia pushed the door open and went out.

Granny Liu stood there stunned after hearing Su Banxia's words. After a long while, she murmured, her eyes red:

"It seems Yunhe still blames me, blames me for marrying her off to that beast Sun Da. It's all my fault, making my daughter suffer like this. My Yunhe has always been pampered and cherished by me since she was little. When has she ever suffered like this? It's all my fault, all my fault... Waaah..."

Granny Liu immediately buried her face in her arms on the table and burst into tears.

Although the people in the courtyard heard Granny Liu crying, everyone was busy tending to their own wounds in their rooms and no one cared why Granny Liu was crying.

The most unlucky one is Su Songchuan. He is going to the city to get engaged tomorrow, but he has been beaten black and blue. How is he going to explain this to his future in-laws when he gets to the city?

Su Songchuan was extremely annoyed at the moment, feeling that his marriage was about to be ruined by the Sun family. This was his only chance to turn things around. If he made the Li family lose face on the day of the engagement, the wealthy Li might not marry his daughter to him.

Just thinking about it made Su Songchuan feel a little worried. When he heard Granny Liu crying, Su Songchuan felt like rushing into Granny Liu's room and stuffing her mouth with a rag to vent his anger.

Suddenly, Su Songchuan slammed his hand on the table and shouted loudly in his room:

"Stop crying! All you do is cry all day long. You've cried away all your good fortune. Stop crying, it's so annoying!"

At this moment, Su Tao, who was sitting inside the house, was also startled by Su Songchuan's shout.

"Mother, how could my fourth uncle say such a thing?"

While tidying up his torn clothes, the girl in the dorm let out a cold snort.

"Hmph, isn't it all because your grandma spoiled him? She thought her fourth son was incurable, but now he's going to be someone else's son-in-law. She raised him for nothing. Look how heartbroken your grandma is. Instead of comforting her, he's just yelling and shouting in the house. Your grandma is so biased. I bet she'll regret it someday."

Su Tao sighed helplessly and reached out to touch her stomach.

"I will not be biased towards the children I have in the future. I will spoil them equally, regardless of whether they are boys or girls, just like my mother spoiled me."

Upon hearing this, the girl in the dormitory smiled and sat down next to Su Tao, patting her hand.

"My dear girl, I'm sorry you had to go through all that trouble today. Lie down and rest. I'll make you something delicious to eat later when you're all ready to get ready."

Su Tao nodded and went back to lie down on the kang (heated brick bed).

the next morning,

Su Banxia got up early to pack her things and prepare to go to the market. She hadn't been able to set up her stall for two days in a row, and she was getting anxious. In addition, she had just researched some new food, and she wanted to try selling it at the stall today.

Seeing this, Lianhua wanted to follow, but Su Banxia stopped her.

“Sister-in-law, now that you’re pregnant, the baby in your belly isn’t stable yet, so you shouldn’t go with us. Just stay home and help with some chores.”

Upon hearing this, Lotus immediately asked anxiously:

"But didn't you just tell me to go to the stall and help fry sesame balls and fried dough sticks?"

Su Banxia smiled.

"It's alright, sister-in-law, don't worry about these things. My older brother can do it anyway. I'll have him fry them, and I'll make the dorayaki. I'll have my dad help sell the candied hawthorns and keep order. Just let Tie Niu and Gou Sheng go out to sell the candied hawthorns. They can come back to help at the stall after they've sold theirs. You can just stay home and rest during your pregnancy. The most important thing is to give birth to the baby properly."

Lotus lowered her head shyly after hearing Su Banxia's words.

"Banxia, ​​I really don't know how to thank you. Look at me, my health is always holding me back. I was planning to help you guys out before the New Year, but then I got pregnant again. Sigh!"

At this moment, Wang Guihua also came out. Seeing Lianhua standing outside, she hurriedly went forward to help her up.

"Oh dear, Lotus, it's so windy and dewy this morning. You're standing outside dressed so lightly. You'll catch a cold and suffer. Go back inside. We don't need you here."

As she spoke, Wang Guihua hurriedly pushed Lianhua into the house.

Seeing this scene, Cuihua, who was having breakfast in the courtyard, couldn't help but feel jealous. She wished she were the one who married Su Shiyan, so that Wang Guihua and Su Banxia would be protecting her...

Just thinking about Cuihua made her look at Lianhua with malice. If Lianhua died after giving birth, or if Su Shiyan stopped liking Lianhua, wouldn't she be able to take advantage of the situation?

Thinking this, Cuihua quickened her pace, hastily shoveling a few mouthfuls of food into her mouth before hurriedly clearing away the dishes and going into Lianhua's room.

"Sister, I heard you're pregnant. That's wonderful news!"

Lotus lowered her head and smiled.

"What's there to be happy or sad about? Isn't getting married and having children something everyone has to go through?"

Cuihua shook her head.

"The child in your belly is no ordinary child. Born into such a family, he will surely be able to study hard and become an official in the future!"

"Cuihua, don't tease me. Who can say for sure? No matter what happens to the child in the future, I just want him to be healthy and safe."

Cuihua sighed.

“Now that you’re pregnant, everyone in the family is spoiling you like a treasure, so you have to be careful. You should do less heavy work and eat more good food to nourish yourself. You’re so thin; you must have suffered a lot of mistreatment at the Luo family. I know my aunt’s character best. Now that you’re pregnant, you have to eat more good food and not be careless.”

Lotus smiled and nodded.

"Why bring up the past? I'm doing well here now, and I'm happy. I'm not going hungry, so don't worry, Cuihua. By the way, how's the snake bite healed?"

Cuihua scratched her head somewhat awkwardly.

"I'm almost fully recovered. Banxia came to see me this morning and said that the snake that bit me wasn't venomous and that it's nothing serious. She said that I just need to rest for a few days and the wound will heal."

Lotus was very pleased to hear this and said:

"That's wonderful! You're really lucky. I was worried something might happen to your wound."
