Chapter 387: Lin Enyi’s Reminder
Su Laoer left, looking back every few steps, under Xiao Niuniu's admiring gaze.
"Second Master, Niu Niu's father..." Lin Enyi asked tentatively.
Su Lao Er sighed and said, "Something unexpected happened a few days ago."
Whenever Su Laoer thought of Wu Bingsheng, he felt very upset and couldn't help but curse Wang the Butcher.
Killing someone means paying with your life. Wang the butcher killed someone in the street, and the person he killed was a public servant, so he was directly sentenced to death by beheading by Zheng County Magistrate.
However, even if Wang the Butcher was cut into pieces, it would not bring back a complete family for the Wu family.
After hearing this, Lin Enyi felt very sympathetic towards the Wu family's situation.
However, after thinking about it, he reminded: "Second Master should have heard the saying that there is a lot of gossip around a widow. Even if Second Master is honest, it is inevitable that people will talk about him."
Lin Enyi thought that after he said this, Su Laoer would definitely glare at him and refute him, saying that he had a clear conscience and didn't care what others said.
Unexpectedly, after hearing what Lin Enyi said, Su Laoer actually showed a distressed expression.
"Uncle Lin, I'm not stupid. What's more, even if I were stupid, my sister is so smart. How stupid can I be as a brother?"
After Su Laoer finished speaking, he grabbed a handful of his hair in annoyance.
He added, "How can I not sense the way others look at me and the dirty thoughts they have? Even in the government office, I'm afraid there are people gossiping about me behind my back."
"But before he died, Bingsheng begged me repeatedly to help take care of his younger siblings and his mother. Could I, just to avoid suspicion, disregard friendship? Would I still be a man? A man's word is worth a thousand gold! If I don't take care of them more often, those scoundrels on the street might have bad intentions!"
After hearing what Su Laoer said, Lin Enyi's mouth twitched.
I thought to myself, the Second Master is indeed worthy of being a member of the Su family.
Never forget to praise your sister at any time.
Then, he felt that what Su Laoer said made sense.
When Wu Bingsheng was alive, some people coveted Wu Niangzi's beauty and even attacked her in the street.
Now Mrs. Wu is a widow with a daughter and has no man to support her. Her life is really difficult.
Moreover, a gentleman values righteousness. Since he has promised, he cannot go back on his word no matter what, right?
Lin Enyi was also a little worried.
"Then... what about Madam Wu's family? Is there no one to help her daughter?" Lin Enyi asked, "Madam Wu has no children and is still very young..."
Lin Enyi didn't say the following words, but with Madam Wu's looks and age, she would definitely remarry.
Su Lao Er frowned and said, "Bingsheng never mentioned where your sister-in-law's family was from? Even at Bingsheng's funeral, no one from your sister-in-law's family was there..."
To be honest, he didn't know whether Madam Wu had a family at all.
Judging from this situation, perhaps there is no one left in Mrs. Wu's family.
"Forget it. I have a clear conscience, so I don't care what others say behind my back!" Su Erhu said boldly, "Anyone who dares to say that to my face, I'll beat him to a pulp! Those people don't even think about the fact that a friend's wife shouldn't be bullied. Bingsheng is my brother. How could I, Su Erhu, do something that would let my brother down?!"
Lin Enyi glanced at Su Laoer and wanted to say, what if your brother doesn’t care?
Or even, is that what your brother meant?
Before Wu Bingsheng died, he entrusted his young and beautiful daughter-in-law to your care. He also knew that you loved his daughter the most and that you would not treat her harshly, so it might not be just what he meant on the surface.
However, Lin Enyi naturally would not say these words.
"Second Master, people's gossip is scary. You don't care, but Madam Wu, as a woman, might not care. After all, a woman's reputation is very important." Lin Enyi had no choice but to say, "I will help, but if I can avoid suspicion, it's better to avoid it, so that no one will criticize Madam Wu."
This is the only reminder Lin Enyi could give.
As for what would happen over time, with Su Laoer alone in the county town and often facing Wu Niangzi and her daughter, Lin Enyi was not sure.
What's more, thinking of Mrs. Wu's beauty, Lin Enyi felt even more uncertain.
After all, even a hero can be tempted by a beautiful woman.
However, thinking of Qian Yuemei's personality, Lin Enyi felt that he couldn't let the second lady have it too easy.
He had heard that before the eldest daughter gave birth to the youngest daughter, the second wife always complained about the Su family's poverty.
Even on the day when the eldest daughter gave birth to the youngest daughter, her son-in-law asked her to borrow brown sugar to nourish the eldest daughter, but she deliberately refused to lend it.
Qian Yuemei didn't know about these things. She was in the yard at the moment, looking at Changsheng and Shiliu with a smug look on her face.
I didn’t expect that my mother-in-law also bought a maid and a servant!
Who knows, maybe in the future I’ll have a maid to serve me!
Qian Yuemei thought happily.
Shi Liu felt inexplicably uneasy when Qian Yuemei looked at her.
"Sixth brother, have you seen second brother?" asked Xiao Tangbao.
"No." Su Xiaoliu shook his head. "My second brother was working in the government office. I was in a hurry to get back, so I didn't go to see him."
"Then when Da Pan and the others are on their day off, let's go to the county town to visit our second brother." Xiao Tangbao thought for a moment and said, "Bring Da Pan and Er Pan with us, and let them get to know our new house."
"Aunt, I, I want to go too." Siwa ran over stumblingly, holding Dabai in his arms.
Xiao Tangbao took out a handkerchief and wiped the drool from Siwa, who was the same height as her.
"Okay, Siwa will go too."
"And Dabai, Dabai is going too."
Siwa quickly fought for the benefit of broadening Dabai's horizons.
“Ahh…”
Dabai immediately howled at Xiaotangbao to express his wishes.
"Okay, Baymax will follow too."
Anyway, Dabai is still young, and people in the county town probably can't tell what breed Dabai is.
After Xiao Tangbao finished speaking, he looked at Qian Yuemei who was staring at him eagerly, and said something that sounded like the sound of nature in Qian Yuemei's ears.
"Second sister-in-law, come with us. I'll borrow Brother Yang's carriage. His carriage is spacious and comfortable, and the ride isn't too bumpy. Second sister-in-law will be fine."
After hearing what Xiao Tangbao said, Qian Yuemei was overjoyed and smiled from ear to ear.
This sister-in-law is so nice!
I will definitely love my sister-in-law sincerely in the future, no matter how much of a spendthrift she is, we will just live a good life.
I have wanted to go to the county town for a long time, but my mother-in-law doesn't allow me.
Now that my sister-in-law has agreed, my mother-in-law will definitely not object.
The more Qian Yuemei thought about it, the happier she became.
She could finally go see the newly bought house and her man.
The last time the man came back, he bought her a silver hairpin, which showed that he missed her in the county town.
If you go by yourself, the man will definitely be happy.
I might be so happy that I might stay in the county town in the future.
Then she lived in a big house and lived the life of a wealthy lady!
Since there are servants in the house in the county town, it is just right for them to serve me, the young lady!
