Chapter 439: Could it be that Third Brother has some hidden illness?
Su Laosan had no idea that since he had Xiao Tangbao, any good thing would be naturally considered to be for Xiao Tangbao.
Not only the Su family is like this, but the people of the entire Daliushu Village are like this.
It can be said that the Su family’s situation has changed, and the situation of the entire village has also changed.
Xiao Tangbao didn't hear her father's boastful shouting because she and Sun Manniang were talking in the back house, which was Su Laosan's room.
To be precise, it was Sun Manniang who asked and Xiao Tangbao who answered.
"Aunt, does your third brother... have other... wives at home?" Sun Manniang forced a smile on her face, and asked haltingly and hesitantly.
Moreover, only she herself knew how painful and worried her heart was when she said the last two words "daughter-in-law".
Xiao Tangbao immediately shook his head and said affirmatively: "No more!"
"It's... gone now?" Sun Manniang murmured.
So, there really was...
Even though she had guessed it, Sun Manniang's expression still changed.
Sun Manniang looked at the little girl in front of her. Although she knew that it was wrong to get information from a little girl, she felt more and more uneasy. It was not easy to ask others directly without being considered jealous, so she had to continue asking the little girl.
Anyway, such a young child is still ignorant.
No matter what you ask, she will definitely tell the truth and won't hide anything.
Of course, I definitely won’t think too much about it.
"Why is he gone? Where did he go?" Sun Manniang asked again, "Your third brother..."
"My third brother didn't know about Sister Zhang's existence." Little Tangbao simply pointed it out directly to avoid making his third sister-in-law so uneasy. "Sister Zhang was divorced by her in-laws and was considered unlucky. Her parents also didn't accept her. She really had nowhere to go..."
Little Tangbao chattered briefly about what happened that year.
"My mother felt sorry for her, so she took her in and told her she could leave whenever she wanted... and then she left."
Sun Manniang finally understood what was going on.
I can’t tell whether I was relieved or not, but I felt a lot more relaxed.
It turned out that the woman was not the one the man married to at the behest of his parents-in-law.
"So, she threatened death to stay in the Su family and guard your third brother?" Sun Manniang pondered. "If that's the case, then she's lived in the Su family for several years. Why is she leaving now?"
"She probably wants to get married," Xiao Tangbao said, "after all, she thought her third brother was long gone."
After saying this, Xiao Tangbao blinked his eyes and added, "If Third Brother had come back a few days earlier, maybe she wouldn't have left."
Sun Manniang, “…”
Why do I suddenly feel a little scared?
Xiao Tangbao suddenly smiled and said softly, "Don't worry, Third Sister-in-law. The relationship between Sister Zhang and Third Brother was just a nominal one. It was just a temporary solution. In reality, there was no matchmaker, no engagement, and no marriage certificate..."
Little Tangbao's voice dropped to a low tone.
She found that she did not seem to be able to comfort her third sister-in-law.
Because as I said this, my sister-in-law's face turned pale again...
Soon, little Tangbao suddenly realized.
It seems that there is no matchmaker, no engagement, and no marriage certificate between Third Brother and Third Sister-in-law...
"Oh, they don't have a bridal chamber either." Little Tangbao quickly made amends.
After Xiao Tangbao finished speaking, he felt that what he said was stupid.
Because, even a fool knows that they don’t have a bridal chamber.
But in order to comfort his beautiful third sister-in-law, he had no choice but to accept it.
However... Third Sister-in-law didn't seem to be comforted.
Because the third sister-in-law's face became even paler.
Little Sugar Baby, "..."
His eyes suddenly widened.
Could it be that...between Third Brother and Third Sister-in-law, there is no...
Oh my god! Could it be that Third Brother has some hidden illness?
Xiao Tangbao and Sun Manniang stared at each other with wide eyes.
Because both of them were born with a pair of beautiful big eyes.
"Don't worry, Third Sister-in-law. Grandpa Wang is a very good doctor. No matter what kind of illness Third Brother has, he can definitely be cured!" Little Tangbao reached out and patted Third Sister-in-law's shoulder with great generosity.
She is very good at giving people reassurance!
Sun Manniang, “…”
Suddenly I had a strange feeling.
What is an unspeakable problem?
It's not what she thought, is it?
Absolutely not!
My sister-in-law is so young, how could she understand those things!
However, the little girl in front of him spoke clearly and methodically, and did not seem like a child who was ignorant of the world.
There are many things that I haven't even asked, but they tell me everything on their own initiative, as if they can see through my thoughts...
"Aunt, how old are you this year?" Sun Manniang asked doubtfully.
"Four years old!" a proud voice.
"Four?"
Is a four-year-old so smart?
Sun Manniang was stunned and tried hard to imagine what she looked like when she was four years old.
It seems like... I like colorful clothes, sweet crystal candies, being surrounded by a group of maids, and catching butterflies in the garden...
Sun Manniang's expression was dazed for a moment.
Those vague memories seem to have happened in a previous life.
"Aunt, Dad is calling you." Fourth Sister Su walked in and said with a smile, "Aunt, go and take a look. Third Brother brought you a glass mirror specially. It's half a person's height, with a brass base and gilded carvings..."
When Su Sisao said this, she suddenly paused and discovered a problem that everyone had overlooked.
The third uncle did not know about the existence of the sister-in-law before, so the glass mirror was not for her at all.
So--
Mrs. Su looked at Sun Manniang.
Could the glass mirror belong to my third sister-in-law?
It's just that in that situation, everyone naturally assumed that it was for the sister-in-law, and the third uncle was embarrassed to deny it, so...
Mrs. Su Si felt that she might have discovered the truth.
No wonder the third uncle had a strange expression on his face just now, it turns out to be like this.
For a moment, Mrs. Su didn't know what to say and looked at Sun Manniang cautiously.
Sun Manniang smiled and said, "I've seen that glass mirror before. It's truly rare. When it was in the capital, I wonder how many wealthy families wanted to buy it."
Sun Manniang said this, patted Little Tangbao's head, and added, "However, your third brother was reluctant to sell it. He said he wanted to bring it home for... my aunt."
Sun Manniang abruptly changed the word "mother-in-law" to "sister-in-law".
Although, she still didn't know Xiao Tangbao's status in the Su family.
However, I also had a vague sense of it.
What's more, the sister-in-law was wearing clothes made of ice silk.
It has to be said that Sun Manniang was also surprised when she saw what Xiao Tangbao was wearing.
This doesn't look like something a country girl can afford to wear!
Even among the daughters of wealthy families in the capital, few could afford to wear ice silk.
To the extent that Sun Manniang, like Liu Gui, suspected that the Su family was some kind of hidden clan that had retreated to the countryside for some reason.
