Chapter 121 Follow-up
The last sentence is the key to really persuading Zhu.
"Yes, you are right. I really can't give them an excuse to take a concubine, but I still have to hurry up and get pregnant and have a child. If I delay any longer, I'm afraid the Zhu family will have to send a concubine to my husband."
This is what Zhu can't accept the most.
With Rulan's comfort, Zhu gradually calmed down, but her inner hatred towards Cuilan gradually became distorted.
Cuilan didn't know at this time that her secret was almost known to everyone who should know it, and she was still angry about the loss of her child. When she saw Su Chuan, who was beaten black and blue by Young Master Bai, she not only did not feel any guilt, but also felt a little gloating and relieved.
"It seems that the young master still cares about me a lot, Su Chuan, don't be so complacent! Even if I don't have a child, you can't covet it!" She was warning and also reminding Su Chuan.
Su Chuan looked at her indifferently, with a flash of disgust and pity in his eyes. "Don't worry, I'm not interested in worn-out shoes that others have worn."
"Hmph! Who do you think you are? You're nothing but a running dog of the eldest young master. The eldest young master has the final say on whether you can have a woman. How dare you comment on me? Don't you even consider whether you are qualified?" Cuilan became angry and her words became more and more unpleasant.
Su Chuan did not argue with her. He just came over to take a symbolic look and then went back to his parents' place.
As soon as I entered the room, I saw Su Chunsen sitting on the edge of the bed with his head hung down, sighing.
Su Chuan secretly felt guilty and walked forward to sit next to Su Chunsen, "Dad, don't be sad. It's better for everyone if that child is gone."
"How can you say such things!" Su Chunsen was so angry that he stared blankly. "Cui Lan has many shortcomings and is not a good daughter-in-law, but at least she was pregnant with your child, a son. How can it be gone just like that?"
He still couldn't figure it out.
Su Chuan paused and said, "Dad, don't worry, you will definitely have the grandchildren you want this year. I promise."
"What guarantee can you make? I've heard that it may be difficult for Cuilan to have children in the future. Our family may be extinct!" Su Chunsen said this and burst into tears sadly.
Mrs. Wan came in with washed clothes, and upon hearing this, she could not help but sneer, "You are just imagining nonsense! Our son is a blessed one, how could he not have an offspring! Cuilan is unlucky, she will definitely not be able to give birth to my grandson!"
Okay, okay, stop making such noises here and disturbing our mood!"
Su Chunsen became even more melancholy when he saw that his wife wanted to carve the word "happy" on her face.
The next day, he drove a carriage to take Young Master Bai out to do some errands. Not only did he look listless, he also revealed a deep sense of frustration and sadness that he couldn't even pretend.
Young Master Bai's suspicions were somewhat alleviated, but he still didn't look very kindly towards Su Chunsen's family.
Su Sheng drove a cart of things back to Dongmen Village before dark. As soon as he entered the house, he couldn't wait to see his wife and children.
"Xiaoyu, it's bad, something happened!" Su Sheng ran to Su Yu with an anxious look on his face. After a while, he finally straightened his tongue and said, "Your sister-in-law had a miscarriage and the baby is gone!"
Su Yu stood up suddenly, unable to hide her joy, "Really? Who told you?"
"Huh?" Su Sheng was confused, looking bewildered. "Aren't you worried?"
Su Yu tilted her head and chuckled, then asked teasingly, "What am I worried about? You know what Cuilan did on New Year's Eve! Just based on her, she is worthy of me calling her sister-in-law! How shameless!"
Su Sheng scratched the back of his head. "That being said, the baby she's carrying is your eldest brother's blood after all. It would be a pity to just lose it like this."
Su Yu shook her head. "Cui Lan herself is not innocent. Who knows whose child her child is? Now that the child is gone, my eldest brother doesn't have to be a scapegoat. Isn't that good! But what happened? She values the child so much, how could she let the child get into trouble? How are my parents?"
Su Sheng shook his head. "I don't know exactly what happened. I only know that my father-in-law and mother-in-law followed the master to the Wanfo Temple that day. My eldest brother-in-law stayed with me the whole day. It was not until someone from the mansion came that I knew something had happened to your sister-in-law."
Su Yu immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and her smile became brighter, "That's good, don't worry, it's okay, look, it's only been two days, and our son has become a little heavier, and it's hard for me to hold him and feed him."
"Oh! That won't do!" Speaking of children, Su Sheng immediately forgot about everything else.
After looking at the child, he displayed the cakes and snacks he had brought back like he was presenting treasures, and this time he acted as if Cuilan's incident had never happened.
Su Yu took the opportunity to talk about the material that Su Tai gave her. "My cousin's husband is really capable. He got some thin cotton cloth. I really like it. Tomorrow when you are free, go to Shenjiazhuang and ask my brother-in-law to buy some spring and summer cotton cloth. Buy more. I want to give some to my parents, elder brother and cousin Yunyun in the county.
My parents are in the Bai Mansion, and they have certain requirements for the clothes they wear. They don’t need too many. Cousin Yunyun can prepare more. I remember that she likes purple, so you can buy some purple, yellow, and green materials. "
Su Sheng wrote them down one by one.
After just a night's rest, I went to Shenjiazhuang the next day.
This was his first time in Shenjia Village, and as soon as he arrived at the entrance of the village, he asked about Shen Yi's family.
The villager pointed to the most eye-catching high courtyard wall in the village and said, "That's Shen Yi's house."
Su Sheng's pupils trembled. After thanking him, he immediately drove the ox cart over and knocked on the door for a long time but to no avail.
Huang Xinghua, who was working not far away, saw this and ran over to shout, "Chen Yi is out on the boat, only Chen Yi's wife is at home, you can look for him in the evening or early morning."
Su Sheng turned around and smiled at Huang Xinghua: “I am the brother-in-law of Shen Yi’s wife. It’s the same when I look for her, but why didn’t anyone open the door after knocking for a long time.”
Huang Xinghua sneered and walked forward to pull the wooden stake. "That's it. Next time you come over and pull this, the people inside will be able to hear the noise. Otherwise, there are two doors in their house, and even if you slap your hands until they hurt, the people inside may not be able to hear it."
"Two doors?" Su Sheng was even more surprised.
The door opened as they were talking. Su Tai was a little surprised to see the person outside. "Brother-in-law? Did my cousin ask you to come get the material?"
Su Sheng nodded wildly, "I just came back from the county town. Xiaoyu asked me to take some materials to the county town to my father-in-law, mother-in-law, uncle, and cousin Yunyun. I couldn't sit still, so I hurried over. Why is Chen Yi out on the boat? Don't you have to work in the fields?"
Su Tai looked at Huang Xinghua and chuckled, "I can't help with the work in the fields, and Shen Yi can't handle it alone, so let's just find someone to help, and he can sell some food while he goes out on the boat."
“That’s good.”
Su Sheng tied the ox cart at the door.
Huang Xinghua said, "Just go in, we'll be working nearby and help you keep an eye on it, it won't get lost."
"Thank you, sister!" Su Sheng thanked her again and then followed Su Tai into the yard.
