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

Su Banxia took out a dagger from her spatial storage and plunged it straight into the black bear's neck. In just one strike, the black bear bled profusely. The black bear, which had been unconscious, struggled and twitched a few times, trying to get up and pounce on Su Banxia.

Su Banxia went directly into the space, found a handy tool, and prepared to go out later to deal with the black bear that had bled to death, and then store it in the space.

Su Banxia figured she had nothing else to do, so she might as well clean the Japanese ginger and pickle it. Pickled Japanese ginger made with water from the space well would definitely be extremely delicious, and eating it would also make her body stronger.

Without further ado, Su Banxia first washed and dried the Jerusalem artichokes, then sliced ​​them with a cleaver, marinated them with salt and chili peppers, and then added soy sauce, star anise, Sichuan peppercorns, and other ingredients to a pot and brought it to a boil.

After the brine has cooled, pour in the ginger that has been marinated with salt and chili peppers. It can be eaten after seven days.

After Su Banxia finished all that, when she came out of the space, the black bear was already dead. Using her experience as a medical student from her previous life, she quickly skinned, cut the meat, and removed the bones from the black bear, and soon cleaned it up.

It was completely dark by now. Su Banxia packed her things, picked up a sickle, and carefully made her way down the mountain by the moonlight.

But as soon as she reached the foot of the mountain, she heard someone calling her name.

"Banxia, ​​Su Banxia, ​​where are you?"

"Banxia, ​​hurry home!"

It was her parents' and older brother's voices! Su Banxia quickened her pace and shouted into the darkness:

"Father, Mother, Big Brother! I'm here!"

After saying that, Su Banxia hurriedly ran towards the sound.

"Hey, slow down, slow down."

The moment Wang Guihua saw Su Banxia, ​​a weight lifted from her heart, and tears streamed down her face. Now, her second daughter was not close to her.

If her eldest daughter were really gone, she wouldn't know how she would live on. Fortunately, Su Banxia has returned safely.

When Su Shiyan saw his younger sister return, he hurried over to help her up.

"Big sister, why have you been gone for so long today? Father, Mother, and I were so worried. We were just about to go upstairs to look for you."

Su Banxia, ​​panting heavily, waved her hand and said:

"It's nothing, something happened on the way and we were delayed. Where are the workers?"

Su Hanzhang walked over and looked at Su Banxia with concern.

"It's too late today, all the workers have gone home. They said we're all from the same village, so it's the same if we settle the wages tomorrow."

Su Banxia nodded.

"I'll give my mother the wages for these two days later, and I'll settle the accounts with the other party after I finish work tomorrow. Today's delay was my fault. No matter what others say, we should keep it to ourselves."

Wang Guihua nodded while wiping away her tears.

Seeing this, Su Banxia quickly stepped forward, grabbed Wang Guihua's arm, and comforted her:

"Mom, why are you crying? I'm back safe and sound. Stop crying, it's getting late, let's go home."

Wang Guihua wiped away her tears and nodded, saying:

"Yes, Banxia, ​​you can't scare your parents like that anymore."

Su Banxia smiled and agreed, and then the family of four packed their things and headed to Old Su's house.

As soon as Wang Guihua entered the door, she heard Granny Liu shout:

"Your whole family is never home, I don't know where you've been gallivanting off to. What use is a daughter-in-law like you? You can't even help with the housework, and now you've given birth to a few jinxes who are ruining the reputation of the Su family!"

Wang Guihua had been suppressed by Granny Liu for so many years, and she still trembled all over when she heard Granny Liu scolding her. Seeing this, Su Banxia quickly grasped Wang Guihua's hand, shook her head, and indicated that she didn't need to be afraid.

"Grandma, you're getting on in years, you should start doing something good for yourself. I think you're the one who has ruined the reputation of the Su family the most!"

Granny Liu originally intended to scold Wang Guihua to vent her anger and also tell her about her plan to marry Su Mo to Su Feng. However, she never expected that Wang Guihua would not even speak to her and would directly let Su Banxia do it for her.

"You little slut, you're even more unreliable! I'm talking to your mother, what are you doing interrupting me? I think you're asking for a beating again!"

As she spoke, Granny Liu picked up a broom from the yard, ready to strike Su Banxia. Seeing this, Wang Guihua quickly pulled Su Banxia behind her, looking at Granny Liu with a determined expression and saying:

"Mother, just say what you want to say. There's no need to use such veiled and sarcastic language!"

Su Banxia looked at Wang Guihua's trembling back as she stood in front of her, and her heart warmed. Wang Guihua was clearly scared herself, yet she still stood firmly by Su Banxia's side.

In her previous life, Su Banxia had never experienced being protected by her parents like this.

On the contrary, in her previous life, Su Banxia's parents were the source of her suffering. Therefore, Su Banxia was already very satisfied to have parents like Su Hanzhang and Wang Guihua in this life.

This is why she was so determined to help her second wife's family live a good life.

When Granny Liu saw Wang Guihua's attitude, she was a little suspicious. Wang Guihua had always been obedient to her, so why did she dare to openly defy her now?

Su Hanzhang entered from the back, glanced at the scene in the courtyard, frowned, and said:

“Mother, now that we have separated from you, you should refrain from interfering in our affairs. Instead, use your time to care more about my eldest brother and third brother.”

Su Mo, who was carrying a basin out of the kitchen, froze upon hearing Su Hanzhang's words. She looked at him, wondering when her parents had changed. They were no longer the same as before, silently giving and passively accepting everything.

Su Mo turned her head and met Su Banxia's disdainful gaze at Granny Liu. She immediately understood why her parents had changed so much; it was all because of her good older sister's instigation.

Thinking this through, Su Mo's lips curled slightly. She then threw the basin on the ground and looked at Granny Liu, saying:

“Grandma, my father is right. Our second branch of the family has separated from the old Su family. Now I can no longer help you with the work in this yard. Our second branch also has its own work to do.”

After saying that, Su Mo stood directly next to Su Banxia and whispered:

"Sis, will there be any food left for me if I come back now?"

Su Banxia looked at Su Mo with some surprise, and after a while, she nodded to her.

Upon seeing this, Su Shiyan hurriedly and happily shouted:

"Come on, let's go back inside and eat!"

Seeing that Granny Liu was still in a daze, Wang Guihua turned around and pulled her two daughters into the house. Su Hanzhang looked at his mother standing in the yard, shook his head helplessly, and followed her into the house.

Only then did Granny Liu realize that the last laborer of the second branch of the family wasn't going to work for the Su family anymore. Enraged, she pointed at the second branch's door in the yard, jumping up and down and cursing:

“You second branch of the family are ungrateful wretches! Now that you've separated the family, you don't care about us old folks anymore. Su Hanzhang, you remember this: no matter what, I will always be your mother, and you can't get rid of me!”
