Daya looked at her younger sister crying so hard she could barely breathe, and her face was filled with heartache.

"Big sister, I was wrong, I was really wrong. I should never have disobeyed you and married that beast. He deceived me, sob sob sob."

Hearing this, Da Ya felt quite disappointed and disappointed.

"Why didn't you listen to the old lady back then? Let the old lady choose for us. That family would definitely be a good match in terms of character and background."

Not only did you not listen, you also hurt the old lady's feelings. Now look what happened!

After saying that, Da Ya was thinking about what to do with her younger sister. If all else failed, should she try to persuade her to divorce?

Should we find her another one later?

Er Ya frowned as she listened to her older sister's words.

But a different feeling crept into my heart.

She thought her older sister would comfort her, but instead she blamed herself.

Er Ya even detected a sense of schadenfreude in her older sister's words.

Everyone knows that Wang Xiucai has now become Wang Juren, and it's said that he might even become the top scholar in next year's imperial examination.

After Wang became a Juren (a successful candidate in the imperial examinations), many women wanted to become his concubines.

However, Wang, the scholar, publicly declared that regardless of whether he could become the top scholar in the imperial examination, he would only have one wife and would never take a concubine.

Er Ya felt incredibly sad at the thought. These good days should have been hers, but her older sister had taken them away.

When the old lady learned that Liu Yu was a person of bad character, she chose Wang Xiucai for herself.

It was because she insisted on marrying Liu Yu that Wang Xiucai betrothed her to his own sister.

My sister only said a couple of perfunctory words to me at the time, but now that I think about it, she was probably waiting for me all along!

She was blinded by her feelings and couldn't see clearly for a while, but her sister didn't say much. Instead, she married the old lady and took a liking to Wang Xiucai.

All that talk about sisterly affection and putting others first is utter nonsense.

She must have heard from the old lady that Scholar Wang was not only of good character, but also more knowledgeable and might become a high-ranking official in the future.

In addition, Wang Xiucai's family was poor at the time, so when they married, they could be considered a poor couple.

I believe that anyone with a modicum of conscience would not abandon their sister after becoming a high-ranking official.

Besides, she was married out of the Princess's mansion; who would dare abandon her?

Er Ya's mind is now filled with thoughts of how she was tricked by her own sister, otherwise she wouldn't have ended up like this.

Er Ya seemed to have completely forgotten what her older sister had said back then.

Instead, she kept blaming her older sister in her heart, wondering why she hadn't tried to persuade her more back then.

Da Ya was unaware of her younger sister's resentment.

She was still thinking about how to comfort her younger sister and how to tell her about the divorce, but she was also afraid of hurting her sister's feelings.

Looking at the bustling street, he reached out and grabbed his younger sister's arm.

"Come on, let's go to my house for a while."

Er Ya originally wanted to shake off her older sister's hand, but when she heard her sister say that she wanted to go to her house for a visit...

I suddenly thought of my brother-in-law.

My brother-in-law is now a scholar, and his future is bright. If I could be with him…

Er Ya nodded happily: "Okay, sister, then I'll come to your house for a visit. It's been so long since I've formally met my brother-in-law."

Daya felt relieved upon hearing her younger sister's words.

I'm afraid my younger sister might be having some kind of mental breakdown, and I'll have to go back and give her a good talking-to.

I took Er Ya to the market and bought a lot of chicken, duck, meat and fish.

As soon as Daya opened the courtyard door, Old Lady Wang rushed forward and snatched the things from Daya's hands.

"Oh dear, I told you not to do any work. If you need anything, just tell me. If you want to eat or buy anything, I'll go out and do it!"

This really worried us. As soon as I got back and found you weren't home, I immediately sent the eldest son to look for you.

Grandma Wang was sweating profusely with anxiety. Her daughter-in-law had finally gotten pregnant, and she was worried that something might go wrong.

She's already young, so she has to be even more careful during her pregnancy.

Seeing the old lady's anxious appearance, Er Ya felt as if her heart was being torn apart.

Why is it that other people's mothers-in-law are so good, while my own mother-in-law is so mean and calculating?

"Mom, if you have nothing to do, go out and buy some groceries. Look, this is my little sister. I just ran into her on the street, so I invited her to come and stay for a couple of days."

Grandma Wang then looked at Er Ya beside her and said with a smile, "Stay here for a few more days, come inside and sit down."

After saying that, he brewed a cup of tea and served it to Er Ya.

"You two sisters can chat for a while, I'll go make you dinner now."

As she spoke, Grandma Wang carried the bag of things into the kitchen.

The reason Da Ya said Er Ya wanted to stay here for two days was because she had heard that her brother-in-law treated her younger sister badly.

Seeing his distraught sister on the street, he knew the two must have had a fight.

I might as well relax here and clear my head. If we can make up then, I'll send my sister back to her.

If that doesn't work out, then get a divorce. I'm sure my sister can find someone better.

Daya looked up several times, but couldn't bring herself to say what she wanted to say.

Er Ya asked, "Sister, is there anything you want to say? Just say it. We're all family, there's nothing we can't talk about."

Then Da Ya took a deep breath before asking, "Have you and your brother-in-law never consummated your marriage?"

Er Ya narrowed her eyes upon hearing this.

Seeing her younger sister's face turn cold, Da Ya quickly explained, "Don't misunderstand, I just heard from a rumor that your husband didn't consummate the marriage with you."

After saying that, Da Ya suddenly realized that she had said something she shouldn't have.

Ever since I got pregnant, I've found myself saying things without thinking. Sigh.

"My dear sister, I was just worried and confused. I heard that your husband treats you badly."

I was thinking that if things don't work out, you should divorce him, and then I'll ask the old lady to find you another good husband.

Er Ya was quite unhappy.

But he didn't say anything, he just shook his head.

"Let's talk about it later. After all, divorce is a big deal, and you know what happens to women after a divorce..."

In fact, Er Ya still had many concerns, after all, her dowry was mostly used up within the mansion.

Even the money that had been saved at the factory was spent.

If I leave the Liu family, I won't even have anywhere to go. Am I supposed to rely on the meager support from my sister?

Just then, Liu, the scholar who had gone out to look for someone, returned. Seeing his mother busy in the kitchen, he realized that his wife had already returned.

Sure enough, when they arrived at the main room, they found their young mistress chatting with another girl.

When Da Ya saw her husband return, she quickly stood up and introduced him: "Yuan Lang, this is my younger sister, and Er Ya, this is your brother-in-law."

Er Ya's heart trembled as she looked at Wang Juren's handsome and talented appearance.

The old lady did say he was good-looking at the time, and now he really is exceptionally handsome, at least many times better than Liu Yu.

Er Ya slowly stood up and called out in a soft, sweet voice, "Hello, brother-in-law."

That soft, sweet voice went straight to the heart.

But Wang, the scholar, only had his own wife in his heart and eyes.

After looking her up and down, she said with a reproachful expression, "Why are you running around like this while you're pregnant? I'd be so heartbroken if you bumped into something."
