Chapter 91 Sun Da Comes Knocking
Upon hearing this, Su Banxia abruptly withdrew her hand and then said coldly:
“Wei Kezhi is a person, not a thing. We can’t just give him away like that. Besides, Wei Kezhi and I are just friends. I can’t make decisions for him.”
Upon hearing this, Su Mo stared intently at Su Banxia with bloodshot eyes, and let out a cold laugh.
"Ha, in the end, all you're really willing to do is give Brother Wei to me. You're such a cold-blooded animal, nothing I've done can move you!"
After saying that, Su Mo stood up, dusted off the dirt on her skirt, and coldly looked at Su Banxia, saying:
"Now that things have come to this, I won't hide it from you anymore. I was the one who told Grandma about building a house on Dwarf Mountain. I just couldn't stand your smug attitude, so I deliberately had Grandma go and put you on your toes, so you'd know your own limitations!"
With that, Su Mo walked directly to the table, sat down, and poured herself a glass of water.
"Let me tell you, Su Banxia, Wei Kezhi is the man I've set my sights on. You can't take him away even if you try. Don't worry, one day I will definitely let you see the happy scene of our marriage."
Upon hearing Su Mo's words, Su Banxia immediately felt that her sincerity had been wasted. She stood up, glanced at Su Mo disdainfully, and laughed:
"Since that's the case, then let me see what you're capable of. Don't be someone I trample on forever."
After saying that, Su Banxia left without looking back.
Watching Su Banxia's retreating figure, Su Mo unconsciously gripped the teacup in her hand tightly, murmuring:
"Just you wait, Su Banxia, I'm going to take everything from you."
As soon as Su Banxia stepped out of the house, she kicked the basket on the ground and cursed:
"This is truly an eye-opener. It turns out that the biggest cancer in the Su family is actually in the second branch. This Su Mo is always trying to be competitive and compare herself to me. What did I do to deserve this? She even wants to take Wei Kezhi from me. Bah! She's my little brother. Do you think you can just take her away like that?"
After saying that, Su Banxia muttered under her breath, a little unsure of herself:
"Um, could Wei Kezhi also be captivated by Su Mo?"
Just as Su Banxia was muttering to herself, Su Qingsong rushed in from outside, looking at Su Banxia with a terrified expression and shouting:
"Su Banxia, how could you blind Su Feng? He'll never forgive you!"
Su Banxia looked at Su Qingsong with an expression as if he were an idiot and said:
"He won't forgive me, but why would he forgive you? I'm a member of the Su family, aren't you? I didn't blind him, did anyone see that? How dare you spread such rumors about me?"
Upon hearing this, Su Qingsong looked at Su Banxia with a nervous expression and said:
"But, but Su Feng clearly said it was you just now..."
“If he says so, then so be it. Don’t you have a brain? You just said he’s blind. Maybe he’s mistaken. I’ve been home the whole time. Why would I gouge out his eyes? Besides, I have no grudge against him. Why would I gouge out his eyes?”
Su Qingsong scratched his head after hearing this.
"You really didn't stab me?"
Su Banxia looked at Su Qingsong and nodded firmly.
"It's really not true."
Su Qingsong quickly turned and ran outside.
“Then I must go out and tell the people in the village that Su Feng must have made a mistake, so that he won’t hold a grudge against our Su family.”
After Su Qingsong ran out,
Su Banxia turned her head and saw Su Mo standing at the door of the second room, looking at her with a shocked expression.
"You really blinded him? Was it for me?"
Su Mo said in disbelief.
Su Banxia snorted coldly.
"Don't flatter yourself. I've already said it wasn't me."
After saying that, Su Banxia went to wash up on her own.
Su Mo watched Su Banxia's retreating figure and clenched her fists, muttering to herself:
"Even if you help me this time, Su Banxia, I will not give up on Wei Kezhi. He is the only one who can save me."
The next day,
As soon as Su Banxia opened her eyes, she heard the sound of gongs and drums outside. She quickly tidied herself up, put on her clothes, and went out to check.
Aunt Cai led Sun Daxi into the courtyard in high spirits, followed by two oxcarts. She had specially hired two people to play gongs and drums.
Su Banxia rubbed her eyes. Could it be that Sun Da had come to propose marriage? Su Banxia remembered that Sun Da hadn't sent anyone to announce the date in advance. Why was he coming to propose marriage so directly? The Su family hadn't prepared anything and was probably in a panic.
Hearing the noise, Granny Liu put on an overcoat and came out. Seeing Aunt Cai leading Sun Da to the door, and making such a fuss, she naturally understood that Sun Da must have come to propose marriage to Su Yunhe today. So she quickly turned around and went back into the house to put on her clothes.
Qin, who was making breakfast in the kitchen, noticed that no one was attending to Aunt Cai, so she quickly washed her hands and came out to invite everyone to sit down in the courtyard. She then led Aunt Cai and Sun Da into the main room.
"Oh dear, Aunt Cai, your arrival today is so sudden! We haven't prepared anything yet."
As Qin poured water for Aunt Cai and Sun Da, she spoke.
Aunt Cai smiled, glanced at Sun Da, and then whispered to Qin Shi:
"Isn't it because Sun Da heard that your daughter is going to get engaged on the eighth day of next month? Sun Da thought that Yunhe, as the aunt, should get ahead of her niece, so that it would sound better to say so."
Upon hearing this, Madam Qin nodded repeatedly.
“Young Master Sun is truly thinking of my Yunhe. I was worried about what to do about this, but you’ve come to propose marriage today.”
Sun Dayi waved his hand and spoke in a gruff voice:
"I'm not here to propose marriage; I'm here to take Yunhe home and live with her. Didn't I give Yunhe an engagement gift of one tael of silver last time we met? I'm too lazy to bother with anything else, so I'll just take Yunhe home today."
Upon hearing this, Madam Qin paused, her hand holding the teapot still, and said with difficulty:
“How can the bride’s family not know the auspicious date for a wedding? If we just hastily take Yunhe back, my mother-in-law will definitely be unhappy.”
As soon as Qin finished speaking, Sun Da placed the bundle he was carrying on the table and opened it.
“If my mother-in-law does not agree to let me take Yunhe back to get married today, then this ten taels of silver betrothal gift will be invalid.”
Upon hearing this, Granny Liu, who was just coming in from outside, glanced at the gleaming silver on the table and immediately stepped forward with a smile, saying:
“Oh, how can it not count? Since you, Mr. Sun, have said that last time was an engagement and this time is the wedding, then there’s no problem. It’s just that my family hasn’t prepared anything, I’m afraid…”
Sun laughed and stood up, saying:
"No need to prepare anything. It's just going to be a big celebration in our village anyway. As for the bride's family, there's no need to be too extravagant. Let Yunhe come out. I've prepared her wedding dress."
As soon as Sun Da finished speaking, Aunt Cai hurriedly took out a package and handed it to Qin Shi. Qin Shi stepped forward to take it and stood there stunned.
Granny Liu glared at Madam Qin and said:
"Hurry up and change Yunhe's clothes!"
After receiving the instructions, Madam Qin nodded and withdrew.
Granny Liu stepped forward and grabbed the silver on the table. She weighed it carefully; it was at least ten taels of silver. She hadn't expected Sun Da to be so generous.
However, this was not handled very well. How can one get married without informing the woman's family beforehand and then simply go to their home and take her away?
Although Granny Liu was unwilling, no one can turn down money. Looking at the pile of silver in front of her, Granny Liu was overjoyed.
