Chapter 12 What are you moaning and groaning about?
Their eyes met, and Liu Nian forgot to breathe, staring intently at the person in front of her.
Liu Nian blinked, her mind racing. She wondered how she could protect Su Xu's dignity, given his supposed impotence in that area.
Just then, the door rang. Su Xu closed his eyes and forced himself to get up from Liu Nian to open the door.
"You're still awake, aren't you?" Wang Xiuzhi stood outside the door, peering inside. Looking at the cabinets standing in the room and the new quilts folded on the kang (heated brick bed), she couldn't help but smile.
All of these things will belong to her in the future!
"What's wrong?" Su Xu asked, frowning.
Wang Xiuzhi, putting on airs like a mother-in-law, said, "We need to hold a family meeting. Every family has its rules, and even though the new daughter-in-law has entered the family, she still needs to abide by them."
Su Xu blocked Liu Nian's way, about to speak, but Liu Nian said with a smile, "Okay."
The east wing was Su Hang and Liu Xiangxiang's new room, while Liu Nian and Su Xu were arranged in the smallest and simplest west wing. Wang Xiuzhi and Su Zhenye lived in the main room with Su Zhimeng.
When Liu Nian and Su Xu arrived at the main house, Liu Xiangxiang and Su Hang had already arrived.
There was an eight-immortal table in the room, and several people sat around it.
Su Zhenye spoke up, "Today you're getting married, and you know how hard things have been for yourselves."
"Heh, don't make your intentions too obvious," Liu Nian raised an eyebrow.
“Your mother has managed the household for so many years, it’s time for her to enjoy her retirement after she got married.” Su Zhenye glanced at his two wives and said, “Starting tomorrow, you two will have to take charge of everything at home, big and small, especially the three meals a day.”
"And another thing," Wang Xiuzhi said, "Although you two are married, Zhimeng is still young. You two brothers need to save money for Zhimeng to build a house and get married in the future."
Judging from this, it seems that Su Zhimeng's affairs will now be the responsibility of the two brothers. People in rural areas generally marry young, and Su Zhenye and Wang Xiuzhi are only in their early forties. Are they planning to do nothing from now on? Rely on us for support?
“We’re facing some difficulties at home, as you all know, so we need to share what we have and not be stingy with each other.” Wang Xiuzhi looked at Liu Nian, “Niannian, don’t you think so?”
They're eyeing her dowry. Liu Nian looked up and said coldly, "Mom and Dad, you haven't forgotten, have you? I said we'd separate the family after I got married."
"So, you are you, and I am me!"
Wang Xiuzhi slapped her thigh and pointed at Liu Nian, saying, "What family division? Our Su family doesn't have such a thing as family division! Since you've married into our family, you have to follow our family rules!"
"Mom, you promised to separate the family property." Su Xu secretly pulled Liu Nian's hand under the table. "That's why Nian Nian agreed not to report my brother to the police."
After saying that, Su Xu's gaze swept coldly over Su Hang, "What, do you want my brother to be convicted of hooliganism?"
Su Hang turned pale with fright. "Mom! I don't want to be executed!"
“I had witnesses at the time. So, the family is definitely going to be divided!” Liu Nian said, playfully scratching the man’s palm with her fingers.
"You ungrateful wretch! You've forgotten your mother after getting married!" Wang Xiuzhi pointed at Su Xu's nose and cursed, "I've really raised you for nothing! Fine, fine, let's separate the family! We'll separate tomorrow!"
Even after being scolded, Su Xu remained expressionless, turning his head nervously to look at his wife.
