Hearing Su Yu's words, Su Dazhi felt quite wronged. Life hadn't been as good as it used to be after they got married.
Su Yu said, "Alright, I'll go back and cook first. But to prevent Liu Mei from separating from the family, I still can't cook for you. You'll have to eat out for a while. By the way, yesterday when I asked Liu Mei for money, she knew you were hungry, so she should feel sorry for you and give you some money and tickets."
Su Dazhi: "..."
"What's wrong? Didn't you give it to me?" Su Yu asked, looking surprised. "To my dismay, I've run into a tax-paying younger brother and a stupid sister-in-law."
Su Dazhi lowered his head.
Su Yu said painfully, "If she won't give it to you, just keep asking. I can't let a grown man like you go hungry. You, Liu Mei, always promised you a good life after you got married. But after you got married, I, as your older sister, still have to support you. It's no problem for me, as your older sister, to support you. But where did Liu Mei take all that money? It's one thing if she doesn't spend it on my family, but why won't she give it to you? I bet she took it all to Old Liu's house!"
Su Dazhi was clenching his fists in anger, but didn't know how to vent it. His eyes even turned red with rage. "Sister, I want her, but Liu Mei..."
"What can she do? At most, she'll go back to her parents' house with you, right?"
Su Yu had an expression that said, "I know everything."
This is her own analysis. Women these days are still quite traditional; divorce is something they would never casually mention. So, aside from crying, making a scene, and threatening suicide, the most they would do is go back to their parents' home.
Sure enough, Su Dazhi looked surprised. "Sis, how did you know? She... if I don't listen, she'll make me a bachelor for life."
"What a boastful tone. Dazhi, you actually believe this kind of nonsense. I'm a woman, do you think I don't know what women are afraid of? Women are afraid of being sent back to their parents' home. With the state of the Liu family, I dare say that if Liu Mei really went back, she wouldn't even last a week before being sent back."
Su Dazhi asked with some doubt, "Really? But Liu Mei has lived in our house for so many years..."
“Being married is different from being unmarried. Besides, she only did that because she got benefits from you. If you don’t give her a single penny, her meager salary won’t even cover her own expenses, let alone support her family. I’m a woman too, and I know Liu Mei better than you do. Believe me, if Liu Mei really goes back to her parents’ home, as long as you don’t go to pick her up, she’ll definitely come back on her own in the end. As long as you can stay calm, I guarantee that Liu Mei will listen to you in everything from now on, and you’ll be hers!”
Seeing Su Dazhi wavering, Su Yu said, "Dazhi, you're a man. If you're constantly suppressed by your wife, you'll never be able to hold your head high. Are you happy about that?"
"Being stuck with this for the rest of my life?" Su Dazhi quickly shook his head. "Sister, then, what am I supposed to do?"
"There's nothing we can do. Let's go back and eat first. Liu Mei may not care about you, but I do."
Hearing Su Yu's words, Su Dazhi's nose immediately stung with tears. "Sister, you're so kind."
Su Yu curled the corner of her mouth. "Your sister has always been good, she just doesn't know how to express it, which is why she raised such an ungrateful wretch like you."
When I got home, everyone in the yard was cooking, but the Su family's place was still quiet and deserted.
However, everyone looked at Su Yu walking in front and Su Dazhi walking behind, with obedient expressions, as if they were seeing the sun rise in the west.
Why does the Su family feel like something's not right? Zhi, that scoundrel, stayed home and didn't go out, but the eldest son didn't come back with his wife Liu Mei. Instead, he came back with the Su family's eldest son.
Aunt Liu, who was cooking outside, spat at Su Yu and yelled at Su Dazhi, "Dazhi, why don't you care about your wife? Where's Liu Mei? Are you even acting like a proper girlfriend?"
Su Dazhi was stunned. Right, Liu Mei was still waiting for him to pick her up…
Su Yu stood protectively in front of Su Dazhi, "Aunt Liu, I tolerated your bullying before for Dazhi and Liu Mei's sake. But you bullying my Dazhi in front of me is unacceptable! These days, mothers-in-law don't care about their sons-in-law's affairs anymore, and you, a distant relative, are meddling in things? Is Old Liu's daughter so precious that we have to pick her up after work? We married a daughter from the Liu family, and we've brought home a whole house full of ancestors!"
The other aunties and grandmas who were cooking immediately burst out laughing.
That's right. A married daughter is like water spilled from a cup; why stretch out her hands so far? If every daughter acted like that, who would ever get married?
Aunt Liu blushed deeply.
Seeing that even Aunt Liu, who had always been intimidating him, was speechless after being silenced by his sister, Su Dazhi felt a sense of relief.
So it turns out my sister had been putting up with everything for me all this time. I never knew my sister was so amazing.
Su Yu didn't have time to care what Su Dazhi was thinking; she was really hungry right now.
When they entered the house, they saw Su Zhi and Su Lin sitting there.
Seeing her enter the house, Su Zhi subconsciously stood up and said, "Sister."
Su Yu nodded, then went to open the cabinet containing the grain and instructed, "Lin, let's cook. Let's keep it simple today. Make some corn porridge and add a few slices of meat."
