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

After careful consideration, Widow Li realized she had no other choice, so she spoke directly:

“Okay, I’m willing to marry Brother Sun. As long as you don’t mind that I’ve taken the wrong path, I’m willing to stay with you for the rest of my life and take care of you until you’re old.”

Old Sun had been in love with Widow Li for over a decade, always feeling unworthy of her. A while ago, he finally mustered the courage to confess his feelings to her, but she rejected him.

He was willing to step forward this time, hoping to give it a try. If Widow Li really married him, then he would finally have a home in Su Family Village.

Although Widow Li and Old Man Sun had secretly gotten together, Old Man Sun felt that Widow Li was somewhat unclean. However, considering that he had been a bachelor all his life and had never experienced the pleasures of a woman, he wouldn't mind if he could marry Widow Li. After all, she was a woman who could do his laundry, cook for him, and warm his bed.

But to his surprise, Widow Li actually agreed. So Old Man Sun went straight to Widow Li's side, took her hand, and

"Don't worry, Sister Li. As long as you're with me, I won't let you suffer anymore. I'll hold up the sky for you even if it falls down in the future. Just make sure you cut off contact with other people and don't let the villagers gossip about you."

As he said this, Old Man Sun glared at Old Man Su, who was kneeling on the ground. Old Man Su had been so arrogant earlier, kicking him out of Widow Li's house. Now Widow Li had agreed to be with him. So, no one should be too smug. The one who laughs last is the winner.

Old Man Su also overheard their conversation and gritted his teeth inwardly. He was furious that Granny Liu, despite being paralyzed, wouldn't stay home and insisted on wandering around. Normally, she would never stay at the village entrance for even a moment, but now she was able to wander around, and she wandered all the way to the village entrance, which is how she accidentally discovered his affair with Widow Li. If Granny Liu hadn't discovered it today, what would have happened to Old Man Sun?

Old Man Su naturally knew how much Old Man Sun despised him, so he simply stopped looking at what the two were doing and kept his head down without saying a word.

Widow Li glared at Old Man Su, then grabbed Old Man Sun's hand and said softly:

"Don't worry, Brother Sun. Only today have I realized that you can't judge a book by its cover. When something really happened, no one cared about me. Only you were willing to save me from this predicament. From now on, I'm determined to live a good life with you. As for the other heartless people, let's not talk about them anymore."

Hearing Widow Li's words, Old Man Sun felt much more at ease, and then looked at the village head.

“I won’t hold what the village head did before. If this girl Li is willing to live with me from now on, I will definitely treat her well. I won’t let her cause any more trouble for our village. Please be kind and don’t let this girl Li leave the village.”

Seeing that the two had reached an agreement, the village head didn't want to push things too far. After all, Old Man Sun had indeed been a bachelor his whole life, and now that he had a woman by his side, someone who cared for him and lived with him, it wasn't a bad thing.

So the village headman spoke up:

"Since that's the case, then I won't pursue the matter of Widow Li ruining our villagers' lives. However, you just hit Granny Liu, so you should at least give her some money to compensate her. After all, it's the New Year, and you've caused unhappiness in her family, so you can't escape responsibility for that."

Upon hearing this, Widow Li was immediately displeased.

“Village head, you didn’t see it. Before you came, she kept hitting me. Look at the bumps on my head, they were all from her beatings. We’ve been back and forth for a while now. If you insist that I pay her money, then she has to pay me some money too. Those two almost made me unable to stay in Sujia Village. Don’t they bear any responsibility?”

Old Lady Liu had originally thought that if Widow Li could really get together with Old Man Sun and stop trying to seduce her husband, then the matter would be over. After all, if this got out, everyone would lose face.

But after hearing what Widow Li said, Granny Liu was furious and pointed at Widow Li's nose, cursing:

"You old hag! If you hadn't seduced my old man Su, would he have fallen into your trap? He's been honest his whole life, always listening to me. How come he's become so wicked after getting involved with you? He even tried to kick me out of Su Family Village. I think you taught him all of that! You jinx! Not only did you ruin our family, but you also made me pay you money! Have you no shame? Do you have any humanity left? Old man Sun, let me tell you, if you really marry such a jinx, your Sun family will be doomed!"

When Widow Li saw that Granny Liu was trying to undermine her standing with Old Man Sun, she decided not to tolerate her.

"Old Liu, what nonsense are you talking about? I didn't teach your dead man any bad ideas. He came up with all of this himself. He's wanted to get rid of you for a long time. What man can stand a tigress like you? Why don't you reflect on yourself? Besides, if your dead man hadn't lied to me, would I be in this state today? If I had been with Brother Sun earlier, I wouldn't be so helpless today!"

As Widow Li spoke, she began to cry, collapsing completely onto Old Man Sun.

Old Sun had never seen such a scene before. Holding the delicate and soft Widow Li in his arms, he was so excited that he was trembling, and he stammered out words of comfort:

"Good sister, don't cry. It's just a matter of giving them some money. Don't argue with them. I've saved up some money all year. Let's just give it to her. Don't get upset over such a small thing. It's not worth it. We won't stoop to their level. I know what kind of person you are. You don't need to argue with them. Let's just close the door and live our own lives."

In truth, Old Man Sun also felt that Widow Li's actions were somewhat unfair, so he thought it was only right for Widow Li to give some money to Granny Liu as compensation.

Since Widow Li is unwilling to spend the money, I'll just pay for it for her. When I marry Widow Li, I'll be able to stand up for myself. In the end, the matter will be resolved, and Widow Li will be able to wholeheartedly live with me.
