Chapter 256 Panic and Confusion



"Hahaha... You wanted compensation? Did you get it? Now you've even compensated them with a house."

Wei Baidao wondered how he could have married such a brainless woman.

"How can you blame me? It was Father who made the decision. None of you were on my side. What could I do?"

If Su Nianyou were to say that her family were of one mind, she would definitely be able to get a lot of money and keep it in her hands.

When that woman runs out of money, why bother with her anymore?

"You're so smart, but when have any of your schemes ever succeeded? What sins did I commit in my past life to marry a wife like you? Even if I married a fool, at least she wouldn't be a burden to me, right?"

Wei Baidao cursed and swore, making Su Nianyou sound utterly worthless.

"You've done something terrible, but I've done something terrible by marrying you. Other men can support their families and protect their wives. Look at you, you're a complete coward."

Su Nianyou used to think he was the male lead, someone who would do great things, and that she could tolerate his temper.

Now that things are like this, why should she endure it? She's not afraid of him at all; she'll do whatever it takes to hurt him.

"Fine, so you despise me that much? Then why did you insist on marrying me? Let's get a divorce, right now."

Wei Baidao didn't expect Su Nianyou to dare to look down on him. He wanted to see what kind of person she could find after the divorce.

"You think you can just get a divorce like that? Fine, give me a hundred yuan, and we'll get a divorce right away."

Su Nianyou isn't stupid. She has nowhere to go now that she's divorced. Once she's financially independent, she'll definitely dump Wei Baidao.

"One hundred yuan? Are you dreaming? You wouldn't even be worth one hundred yuan if you were sold!" Wei Baidao thought she must be crazy.

"That's why I say you're a coward. And look at your family. Your eldest brother's wife ran away, and with your second brother's reputation, he probably won't be able to find a wife either."

"If you divorce me again, all three of you brothers will remain bachelors, and your Wei family will be wiped out."

Su Nianyou looked at Wei Baidao with confidence, knowing in her heart that he wouldn't dare to divorce her.

"You..." Wei Baidao was about to retort when he was interrupted by the child's wailing.

The crying calmed Wei Baidao down. Yes, he couldn't get a divorce yet. As long as a woman wanted to get married, even someone with missing limbs would be taken.

But the man is no good. With his family in such a state, let alone finding a wife, he'll have a hard time even surviving.

Who knows what people outside will say about them then?

Even though his family didn't have a good reputation to begin with, he couldn't afford to lose face as a man.

People outside are saying that of the three brothers, only his wife is devoted to him and loves him to death.

He was secretly pleased with himself, feeling that he was charming.

He dared not imagine that if Su Nianyou also ran away, their family would truly be left with three bachelors standing on the wall.

"The child is crying, so hurry up and comfort him. A good man doesn't argue with a woman. I'll let you have your way. Just behave yourself, and I'll find a way to get you something to eat."

Wei Baidao compromised, thinking that he needed to help Su Nianyou recover her health so that she could give him a son as soon as possible.

Even if he runs away in the future, he still has his son to support him in his old age.

Little did he know that some things were non-negotiable, and that endless trouble awaited him.

Su Ti, who was far away in Beijing, was unaware of the Wei family's commotion; otherwise, she would have laughed loudly.

The family is now preparing to leave for Shanghai.

"Wife, slow down." Li Baichuan loaded everything into the vehicle. The military vehicle was large enough to seat the few of them.

He watched as his wife kicked the object, showing no signs of pregnancy, which terrified him.

"It's alright." Su Ti was happy. She missed home. She rode in this vehicle every day. It looked high, but thankfully there were running boards, making it easy for her to get on and off.

"Xiaofeng, you sit in the front, and the two children and I will sit in the back." Marshal Li thought to himself again if he had forgotten anything.

On your first visit, you must not be impolite.

Before setting off, Comrade Xiao Liu carefully checked the car, and once everything was arranged, the family happily set off.

"Honey, you should rest for a while." Li Baichuan knew from his wife's excited expression that she was homesick.

He was also thinking that his mother-in-law would come and take care of the baby when it was born, as he didn't trust anyone else.

"I'm not tired yet." Su Ti knew the distance from Beijing to Shanghai; at their current speed, they wouldn't arrive until dark.

She slept very well last night and can't sleep at all right now.

After thinking about it, Su Ti decided to tell Li Baichuan about her brother so that he could be prepared.

Over there, Marshal Li was looking at Su Yatou and solemnly instructing Baichuan on how to deal with his brother-in-law.

They also analyzed the personalities of everyone in the family, including what the maternal grandfather and grandmother liked, and what the maternal grandmother liked, in addition to the parents they had met.

He looked up and exchanged a glance with Qi Feng in front of him; they both smiled silently.

The group was on their way, and the Guo family in Shanghai was getting anxious too.

"Alright, stop spinning us around. Didn't Nannan say we wouldn't get there until dark?" Grandma Guo said to the old man in an annoyed tone, as she was getting dizzy from all the spinning.

"I'm just worried, do you think Nannan will be bullied there since she's unfamiliar with the place?" Commander Guo and the others only realized the difference when they were about to arrive.

This is the old marshal; they're now in-laws.

"Is it too late to worry now? I think you just don't know how to face the old marshal as your in-law."

“Look at you. We are the women. If you don’t show your attitude, our daughter will be looked down upon in the future.”

Grandma Guo knew him well enough; she was used to being cautious and prudent all her life, and felt insecure in front of the old marshal.

In her opinion, he was far inferior to her son-in-law, but his good point was that he was down-to-earth and honest, and no one could find fault with him even if they wanted to.

That takes some skill; they've been in that position for most of their lives, and their family is content.

"Yes, yes, we can't let people look down on us." Commander Guo hadn't thought of it before, he just thought that Marshal Li was a respectable person.

It feels strange that this person I admire has suddenly become my in-law.

"Dad, what are you panicking about? You have to trust Nannan and Baichuan. I believe Marshal Li would be happier to see the two children safe and sound."

Seeing her father like this, Guo Xuqing comforted him, saying that her daughter was very capable. It was only because they were flustered when the visitor came that they lost face.

"Yes, Mom and Dad, the Li family is visiting us now, which means that Nannan is doing well in Beijing."

Su's father chimed in, saying that if asked whether he was worried, he certainly was.

He understood best the feeling of being cautious due to an unequal status, and he didn't want his daughter to experience that feeling.

But his daughter's family situation was special; his son-in-law was devoted to her.

Unless the old marshal is stupid, he wouldn't give his daughter a hard time in this situation.

Moreover, his daughter was pregnant, so Mr. Su considered all the possibilities.

He felt that what they were thinking would never happen.
