After arriving at Yunmeng City, Su's parents didn't want to go back home, so they just stayed there. Su Jinhua specially bought a small courtyard for them.
Before buying the courtyard, she came to Su Moyan and wanted her to pay half of the money.
"Big sister, we've all married and moved to Yunmeng City. There's really no one to take care of my parents and my younger sister at home. Why don't we pool our money and buy them a small courtyard here? That way, it'll be convenient for us to go back and visit them anytime and take care of them, right?"
Bah, they are your parents, it’s none of my business.
"Second sister is not my elder sister. I am stingy and unwilling to pay the money. You know that I am really powerless."
"You know I didn't bring any dowry with me, so I don't feel comfortable taking my husband's money. If my mother-in-law finds out, she'll definitely kick me out."
"So you should pay for it yourself."
Su Jinhua had no choice but to sulk alone and pay for the purchase of the courtyard alone.
Perhaps because he had his daughter's support, Su Zhengze acted like a big boss, bought two maids from the slave market, and also assigned himself a personal servant.
Like a wealthy lord, he took his servant out to drink and have fun every day. When he had no money to pay the bill, he asked the servant to go to Xiao's house to ask his daughter for money.
Once or twice is fine, but if it happens too often, Su Jinhua will get annoyed! But looking at the creed her father wrote to her.
(Hua'er, your father has planned a way out for you since you were a child for your happiness. You can't deny your father!)
Su Jinhua was so angry that she crumpled the paper into a ball and her eyes became vicious.
I returned to the Su family courtyard that night.
"Hua'er, why are you back?"
Su Jinhua glanced into the room.
"Mom, isn't Dad home?"
When talking about her husband, Zhu immediately felt aggrieved.
"Your father has become a bad person since he got rich. Now he stays in that kind of place every night. Mom hasn't seen him for a long time."
"Hua'er, don't give us so much silver in the future. Ten taels of silver a month is enough for us to spend. That way, your father won't have any spare money and won't go out and mess around."
Su Jinhua felt very aggrieved and told Su Zhengze what he had threatened her with.
"Mom, do you think I want to give Dad so much money? This is not..."
After hearing this, Zhu felt very disappointed.
"Don't worry, Hua'er. Mom won't let your dad tell anyone. Mom will keep a close eye on him."
Her husband understands it himself. He is just saying it, but he still loves his daughter in his heart. He should know the limits and not tell anyone about it.
"Is Huer's son-in-law good to you? Are your parents-in-law easy to get along with?"
"My husband is naturally very good to me, and my father-in-law and mother-in-law are also good to me, but I am always worried, afraid that one day they will find out... What will I do then?"
As long as my son-in-law treats my daughter well, he won't divorce her even if he finds out in the future.
"As women, we have to have children after we get married. As long as we have children, no matter what happens, our husband's family will always protect us for the sake of the children."
Su Jinhua nodded. Her mother was right. She had to get pregnant quickly.
"Mother, didn't you ask me to help my sister find a good husband? I've recently picked out a few families. They're the Wang family who sell tofu in the east, the Li family who run a clothing store in the south gate, and the Qin family who run a grocery store in the city..."
"I don't agree!"
Su Leshu, who was hiding behind a pillar and eavesdropping, jumped out.
"We're both daughters of the Su family, so why should I marry a poor shop owner? I don't care, I want to marry into the Xiao family too."
Su Jinhua was extremely angry. Did she think that anyone could enter the Xiao family?
Zhu also joined in.
"Yes, Hua'er, why don't you see if there are any men of the right age in the Xiao family and help your sister find a partner."
Su Jinhua... How could I have fallen for a family like yours?!
Su Leshu didn't look at Su Jinhua's ugly expression and continued talking to herself.
"I don't want to marry anyone else. I only want to marry the Second Young Master Xiao. Sister, can you help me? I really like him!"
"Sister really likes him?"
Su Leshu had an expression that said she would not marry anyone else in this life.
The three of them, mother and daughter, were chattering about how to get Su Leshu to marry Xiao Beichen.
The system transmitted every word of the conversation between the mother and daughter to Su Moyan's ears.
"Host, they are planning to plot against you. You have to be careful. After all, you are pregnant."
"Don't worry, I will handle it carefully."
Since Su Leshu wants to enter the Xiao family, let her in. It seems interesting to see sisters sharing the same husband.
Although the several branches of the Xiao family have separated, they still have a family banquet every month.
The several branches of the Xiao family lived very close to each other, on the same street.
It’s only a few steps to the City Lord’s Mansion.
Everyone in each room had to be present. From the second room, including the daughter-in-law Su Moyan, there were only three hosts.
The family arrived neither early nor late. The second wife seldom went out, but she maintained a good relationship with each branch of the Xiao family.
Therefore, as soon as they came in, everyone greeted them with a smile.
The third lady smiled and invited her to sit over.
"Second sister-in-law is here, please take a seat, father-in-law hasn't arrived yet."
Su Moyan bowed slightly to the elders and sat down in her seat.
After a while, everyone from the main house arrived. For the first time today, they brought one more person with them, Su Leshu.
Su Moyan leaned over to Xiao Beichen's ear and whispered:
"If a maid accidentally spills wine on you later, remember to stay away so as not to attract unnecessary bad luck."
