Qin Xiaoxiao, who had just left the educated youth compound, had no idea that the female lead suspected her. At that moment, she was running frantically toward the Su family.

After speeding all the way, we finally arrived at our destination and knocked on the gate.

"Who is it? Knocking so early in the morning, can't a person get any sleep?"

With a roar, the courtyard gate opened, and a typical rural woman with disheveled clothes and messy hair appeared in front of Qin Xiaoxiao.

Qin Xiaoxiao was stunned and looked at her with a blank expression.

Who is this person? I don't recognize him!

Qin Xiaoxiao didn't recognize the person who came, but the person who came recognized Qin Xiaoxiao. When she saw the "golden hen" from the brigade leader's family arrive, the woman quickly tidied her messy hair and put on a flattering smile.

"Oh, isn't this Xiaoxiao? Come in, come in, it's cold outside, come in and warm up."

Before Qin Xiaoxiao could react, the woman pulled her into the courtyard and pushed her into the left-hand wing room.

"Smack!"

The loud slam of the door brought Qin Xiaoxiao back to her senses. When she saw the scene inside the room, she felt a surge of anger and wanted nothing more than to kill the woman in front of her with a single blow.

Inside the room, a middle-aged man with his shirt off, wrapped in a quilt around his lower body, sat on the kang (a heated brick bed) staring blankly at her. Beside him were several boys and girls aged four or five to twelve or thirteen, all staring at her in a daze, seemingly forgetting that they were naked.

Qin Xiaoxiao quickly turned her head and silently recited: "Don't look at what you shouldn't see."

After finishing her rant, Qin Xiaoxiao raised her head and looked at the woman with a cold face. "What do you want? What's the meaning of stuffing me into this room? Is this how the Su family treats its guests?"

The woman noticed that Qin Xiaoxiao was angry, but she didn't care at all and waved her hand, "What's the big deal? Which grown man in Northeast China doesn't go shirtless in the summer? Even these little brats are fine. They're not adults yet, what do they know?"

Little one, you might not know me, I'm your aunt, and this is your uncle, hehe..."

Qin Xiaoxiao was speechless after hearing this, and said coldly, "I'm sorry, I don't know you. I only know that my uncle is Qin Feng. Besides, even if you are Su Lu's aunt, I can't call you that now. Su Lu and I are not engaged yet."

The originally set engagement date was postponed due to the brick-buying issue. Su Lu personally visited Qin Aiguo to discuss the matter, and they decided to wait until the house was completed before getting engaged, and then wait two months before getting married. This would save face for Qin Xiaoxiao and let everyone in the village know how much the Su family values ​​Qin Xiaoxiao.

Therefore, Qin Xiaoxiao really couldn't call this Su family auntie in front of her by name; at most, she could add a prefix and call her Aunt Su.

As soon as Qin Xiaoxiao finished speaking, the man sitting on the kang turned cold, put on his clothes, and got off the kang. "If you don't want to call me, then don't call me. Who cares? Qin Xiaoxiao, right? Since you've already made an engagement with Lao Jiu, you'll be a member of the Su family sooner or later. A daughter-in-law of the Su family has to abide by the rules of the Su family. Respecting elders is one of the rules."

After saying that, Boss Su snorted coldly and glared at Qin Xiaoxiao.

Qin Xiaoxiao smiled, then turned to look at Boss Su, her face quickly darkening.

You really think you can take advantage of me! Do you think she's easy to bully?

"Uncle Su, right? Hehe, let me tell you, I'm not even engaged to Su Lu yet. Even if we were engaged, I haven't entered the Su family yet. I have the right to back out before I marry into the family, and I can break off the engagement at any time."

Do you really think I can't live without Su Lu? If it weren't for his good looks, height and build meeting my criteria for a partner, and his promise to treat me well for the rest of my life, do you think your Su family would have been able to marry me?

Su Laoda was so angry at Qin Xiaoxiao's cold laugh that he almost hit her. But when he raised his hand, he suddenly remembered that Qin Xiaoxiao was Qin Feng's niece, and he dejectedly lowered his hand.

"Humph, I won't talk to you."

Having found a way to save face, Boss Su sat down on the side of the chair, ignoring Qin Xiaoxiao.

The group of men and women on the kang (a heated brick bed) were already dressed and all looked at Qin Xiaoxiao with curiosity.

Qin Xiaoxiao ignored them and turned to leave.

Aunt Su immediately stepped forward and stopped the person.

"Xiaoxiao, don't go yet, I have something to tell you."

Qin Xiaoxiao hadn't intended to pay her any attention, but then she thought that she would be marrying Su Lu in a few months and would have to face the rest of the Su family sooner or later. Knowing their character sooner would help her understand how to get along with them.

So Qin Xiaoxiao stopped and looked at Aunt Su indifferently.

"you say."

Qin Xiaoxiao's indifferent attitude displeased Aunt Su, but remembering what she had to say, she suppressed her anger.

Aunt Su smiled and reached out to take Qin Xiaoxiao's hand, but Qin Xiaoxiao dodged her.

"Auntie, please speak your mind and don't get physical. I'm not used to it."

Aunt Su smiled awkwardly, not daring to forcefully pull Qin Xiaoxiao any further. She simply stood at the door, blocking Qin Xiaoxiao's way.

Qin Xiaoxiao didn't care. With Su Da Niang's small frame, she could kick her away with one foot. If she really wanted to leave, no one could stop her.

"Xiaoxiao, is this so? I heard that the third branch, that is, your in-laws, are going to build a house? They've already bought the bricks?"

Qin Xiaoxiao looked at her calmly, without saying a word.

Seeing that Qin Xiaoxiao didn't speak, Aunt Su cursed Qin Xiaoxiao inwardly for being ungrateful and not even daring to respond.

"Well, I didn't mean anything by it, I just wanted to ask if your parents-in-law have said who they gave the house in the backyard to?"

Now Qin Xiaoxiao finally understood what the eldest son of the Su family was planning. They had their eyes on the house of the third branch of the Su family, but they didn't dare to talk to the third branch directly. They wanted to find out from her how the house would be divided.

Qin Xiaoxiao laughed, but this time her laughter was incredibly sarcastic.

"How would I know? Why don't you ask for me, Auntie? I'd really like to know too. After all, I heard from my uncle that those rooms were allocated to the third branch of the Su family, and whoever wants to live there in the future will have to pay to buy them."

Aunt Su also helped me find out how much it could sell for.

My future mother-in-law said that once I'm married into the family, I'll be in charge, and I'll keep all the profits no matter how much money we make.

I also want to know how much money I'll get after we get married!

Qin Xiaoxiao narrowed her eyes and looked at Aunt Su with a mocking expression.

Trying to take advantage of me? Ha! Don't you know your own limitations!

Qin Xiaoxiao guessed that the eldest branch of the Su family wanted to take over the third branch's house, but did not want to pay for it. While stopping her to ask about the ownership of the house, they also wanted to win her over, hoping to coax her into agreeing to let them use the third branch's house for free.

If the new bride says she'll live in the eldest son's house, the third son's family, as her parents-in-law, can't refuse her and can only swallow this bitter pill.

As for whether Wan Guihua would resent her after marriage, that was beyond the scope of the first wife's consideration.

Sure enough, after Qin Xiaoxiao finished speaking, Aunt Su's face showed a hint of anger, and she even glared at Qin Xiaoxiao secretly.
