She was incredibly clever; although these things happened later, she gave Wei Baidao a hint through a dream.

If she leads him to that person again, it will all be thanks to her, and he will surely worship her as a goddess.

"Hahahahaha..."

Wei Baidao was taken aback at first, then burst into laughter.

She's really daring; she dreams even more than him. County magistrate? Does she even know what county magistrate means?

"Su Nianyou, I was blind to marry you. Our family is in this state because of you and your cousin."

"I want a divorce. Get out of this house!" Wei Baidao shouted these last words.

"Bai Dao? What did you say?" Su Nianyou felt like there was something wrong with her ears. What had she just heard?

"Bai Dao, you can't divorce me. Believe me, I really can help you." Su Nianyou panicked.

"You'll help me? Do you even believe that yourself? What are you plotting to keep clinging to my house? I'm not stupid."

"No matter how much scheming Suti has, she is genuinely good to my second brother. As for you, only you know what's on your mind."

Wei Baidao felt that the biggest mistake he had made in all this time was marrying Su Nianyou.

One wrong step leads to another, and not only do you gain nothing, you also get into a lot of trouble.

“Bai Dao, I’m from the city. I’ll have the chance to go back to the city someday. Don’t divorce me. I can take you with me then.”

Su Nianyou didn't know how she had become like this; her mind was racing.

Her only advantage now is that she's an educated youth from the city; the Wei family will definitely have a hard time in the future.

This was a way out for Wei Baidao. He didn't know that two or three years later, with the reform and opening up, he would be able to go anywhere.

"Go back to the city? What ability does your family have to let you go back to the city? And what about your money? You haven't gotten it back after so long. I think your family doesn't care about you at all."

Su Nianyou's words made Wei Baidao hesitate; it was indeed a way out for him.

He knew that if any of these educated youths were missing limbs, they would be sent back to the city, so he still had a chance to leave.

Given Su Nianyou's family situation, I'm afraid going back would be like going to hell for her. What kind of son-in-law is he?

If it were Suti, he would have gone back with her. Just imagine that scene; he would be the family's treasure.

"No, my family is a dual-income family. I only have one younger brother. My sisters all married ordinary men."

“My grandma loved me when I was little, otherwise all my other older sisters would have gone to desolate places, and I was the only one chosen to come here.”

“My brother and I can’t compare, but compared to the other sisters, I’m still number one. My brother is still young, so he will definitely help out.”

“As long as I can go back to the city, my parents will definitely treat us well. You are their son-in-law. When they get old, my younger brother can only take over one job. I will find a way for you to take over the other one. Please trust me one more time.”

Su Nianyou is only thinking about catching Wei Baidao now. She said that those things were all made up. Let alone work, if she really went back, she was afraid her parents would beat her to death.

I wonder what's happened to her accusation that her family took money. With her formidable aunt, she could easily get her parents fired if she got physical.

But she could only appease Wei Baidao for now. She needed to get pregnant as soon as possible. Once she had a son, she would have more confidence even if things really got out of hand later.

"If you want me to believe you, you should get your money back from your family first. You know your sister has swindled the family this time; she took all the money the family had saved."

“We’ll be starving from now on. If you don’t get your money back, forget about me getting a divorce; my parents won’t forgive you either.”

Wei Baidao was skeptical of what she said, but he wasn't against her if she took the money back.

Or he could break her legs and then go to the city with her. In any case, she's still somewhat useful now.

“I know, but you also know that Su Ti is cunning. I’m afraid my mother already gave that money to my aunt.”

Su Nianyou was extremely panicked. That money was exactly what Su Ti had tricked her out of, just like he had tricked the Wei family.

She set traps for them one by one, knowing their thoughts inside and out, and watched them fall right into the trap.

She didn't tell the truth at first, and now she doesn't know how to open her mouth at all.

Otherwise, if Wei Baidao knew she was worthless, he might really abandon her. She thought of how the Wei family had been tricked by Su Ti and had no way to express their grievances.

She's the same now. How could Suti be so capable? No wonder she can keep that man under her thumb.

No, Su Nianyou is just as good. It's just that Wei Baidao is too smart, like the male protagonist in the book.

"Hmph, all you're saying is that you're broke? I don't care about that. Didn't you say you were quite pampered at home?"

"Then let me see how you gained favor. Suti's family can still send things over, but what about yours? I don't care what methods you use, if you don't have money, then get out of the Wei family."

Wei Baidao had no intention of talking to her anymore. She was only of so much use now, and she wasn't worth his time.

"Okay, okay, Baidao, don't be angry, I'll think of a way." Su Nianyou readily agreed; the only solution she could think of was to get pregnant as soon as possible.

Then she thought about how, in all the time they'd been married, Wei Baidao had only touched her a few times, and each time it was she who initiated it.

What exactly is wrong with her? She's starting to doubt whether Wei Baidao is even a man.

The Wei family's chaos did not affect the tranquility of Su Ti's small courtyard at all.

Wei Baichuan raised the courtyard wall, changed the gate, tidied up the kitchen stove, and even cultivated a private plot of land behind the house.

"Brother Chuan, we're leaving now. Call us if you need anything." The soldiers and their buddies had been busy all morning and, seeing that things were almost done, prepared to head back.

"Thank you all for your help. Your sister-in-law said she'd like to invite everyone over for a hot pot dinner in a couple of days when she's feeling better."

Wei Baichuan escorted the group to the door. They were all childhood friends, so there was no need for excessive formalities.

"Okay, we'll definitely come." The group was happy for Chuan Ge that he had now split up the family business.

They all came from poor families and had secretly gone up the mountain before. Wei Baichuan was older than them and had helped them a lot on the mountain.

Every year during the Lunar New Year, they would secretly slip pheasants to them, and they always remembered that kindness.

Before, when he was at the Wei family's house, they didn't dare to talk to him much. Now it's better; they can openly visit Brother Chuan from now on.

After seeing off a few people, Suti came out of the house. She had made a jacket that morning.

Seeing how clean the yard was, she had an even better impression of the young men; they seemed like capable people.

"Honey, I'm going to find the old Party Secretary in a bit. He should be back from the commune by now."
