âStop thinking about it. Grandpa and Grandma have always been biased.â Zhou Hengyang understood what she was thinking. âOnce Su Xuefang was released after more than 24 hours, she went to find Grandpa and Grandma who had gone visiting relatives.â
Xu Xiaoxiao, who was driving, muttered, âAre those old folks out of their minds?â
âHehe!â Zhou Hengyang sneered.
âGrandpa and Grandma dote on Aunt very much.â Su Xiu said softly, âThey must hate us this time. Theyâve always disliked us.â She shrank involuntarily against Su Wenâs body.
Not only Su Xiu, even Sixth sister and Little sister were like frosted eggplants, dispirited. Born as the youngest, they faced Grandpa and Grandmaâs disappointment, criticism, and curses from the moment they were born. Su Dachun even suggested Su Xuewen throw her Little sister into the river and drown her.
After all, she was a burden, and she had even caused her motherâs death shortly after birth. She was like a cursed ghost, someone who might end up killing all her family members. Later, when Su Xuewen died young, Su Dachunâs hatred for Little sister grew even deeper.
Little sister Su was not young anymore, so Su Dachun couldnât just drown her. He had always wanted to sell her.
He could even exchange it for some money.
For some reason, Su Wen realized when she first transmigrated, her Little sister was living in constant fear and trepidation. She was afraid that she would be sold even in her dreams. It all traced back to Su Dachun, who had often instigated Su Wen. If it wasnât for the fact that he hadnât found a good buyer, he would have secretly taken her Little sister away.
In some ways, Su Dachun and Tian Yong, this son-in-law, were quite similar.
âDonât be afraid.â Su Wen held Su Xiuâs hand and suddenly thought of He Changmingâs visit yesterday. She had been so disoriented by Zhou Hengyang that she forgot to ask Su Xiu about the specific situation. She needed to find time to talk to her about the detail later.
He Changming was a good man, and she had high hopes for him.
Initially, Su Wen didnât want to interfere with her sistersâ marriages and relationships, but now she changed her mind. Firstly, in this era, people were often introduced and, if they got along and their familiesâ situation was good, they would get married very quickly.
Ninety percent of marriages were like this. There was no need to blindly pursue the concept of free love.
Different eras used different methods. It wasnât necessarily beneficial to be ahead of oneâs time.
Su Wenâs heart ached when she saw that Su Xiuâs face turned pale when she heard her grandfather and grandmotherâs voices. She decided to matchmake Su Xiu and He Changming, at least try to get along with each other first. With He Changming as Su Xiuâs backer, Grandpa and Grandma could no longer control her.
She couldnât always keep everyone safe and secure. With Grandpa and Grandmaâs status, it was inevitable that she would be taken advantage of.
Zhou Hengyang, who had been looking back at Su Wen, lowered his gaze slightly. His handsome face looked cold and stern. For a moment, the atmosphere in the car fell into a suffocating silence. Even Xu Xiaoxiao, who usually does things her way, fell silent.
Everyone went to the country-owned restaurant in the county town to eat. Xu Xiaoxiao was instructed by Zhou Hengyang to order food.
Even though it was called ordering, there werenât many options available in the 1980s country-owned restaurants. All the dishes were written on red paper and pasted on the wall of the lobby. They could be seen clearly from afar. âWhat do you want to eat?â Zhou Hengyang asked the sisters.
âBrother-in-law, weâre fine with anything.â
âWhatever fills our stomach.â
âIâll eat whatever Big Sister eats.â
The sisters werenât in high spirits. It was also their first time at a country-owned restaurant, so they were not picky. Everything was up to Su Wen and Zhou Hengyang. After they sat down at the round table in the lobby, they immediately obediently poured tea for Big sister and brother-in-law.
All the customers in the lobby were stunned..
