193 Courting Death (1)

At Little Su’s house, Su Yuan left in the carriage. Su Xiaoxiao went to the forest behind the kitchen to sharpen her knife.

The setting sun shone diagonally on the top of her head through the bamboo leaves.

When Su Yuniang walked over with her daughter, who had been in her arms for more than a month, she saw this back view.

This girl had really lost a lot of weight.

Su Yuniang sighed as she moved a small stool and sat down beside Su Xiaoxiao.

“Are you a blind cat who bumped into a dead rat?”

Su Xiaoxiao asked, “What?”

Su Yuniang said, “The medicine for that master. Why are you so bold? Aren’t you afraid that something will happen to him… ”

Su Xiaoxiao continued to sharpen her knife. “He’s fine!”

The little fellow in her arms nodded. Su Yuniang picked her up and patted her back gently, helping her burp out.

Su Yuniang said, “I’ll go to the government office tomorrow and move the household register out.”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “How much did you give the Su family?”

If they did not give her some benefits, the Su family would never let Su Yuniang off.

Su Yuniang kissed her daughter’s forehead and said, “200 taels.”

THUD!

Su Xiaoxiao chopped the chopping board!

Su Yuniang said calmly, “Don’t worry, I’ll make them spit it out.”

…

In the alley between Liu Shan’s family and the Su family, Su Jinniang’s face was pale as she clenched her fists bit by bit.

It was not until Su Xiaoxiao and Su Yuniang entered the kitchen and closed the back door that she quickly ran back to her house.

“Grandpa!”

Old Master Su was checking the accounts with Su Can in the central room. Su Can always got the accounts wrong. He was inferior to Su Erlang.

Old Master Su glanced at the flustered Su Jinniang and asked, “Where did you go again? Who asked you to go out all day? You’re about to get married. Don’t go out so much in the future!”

Su Jinniang lowered her eyes. “I… just went to see Sister. I heard her and Fatty Su say… that they want our money back.”

Su Can stood up. “What?”

Su Jinniang whispered, “Sister said that if our family is heartless, we shouldn’t blame her for being unjust. After she goes to the county office tomorrow to move the household registration, she will tell the villagers about the jade pendant… Back then… what you and Great-Grandpa sold… was the jade pendant snatched from the Su family. There’s also the jade pendant on Fatty Su as evidence. It was originally a pair.”

Su Can said angrily, “When did we snatch their family’s jade pendant? That was passed down from our Su family’s ancestors! Shameless bitch! Watch how I deal with her!”

He rolled up his sleeves and turned to walk out, only to be surprised that no one followed him.

The entire central room was silent. Other than him, Old Master Su, Su Erlang, and Su Jinniang were silent.

Old Master Su knew the truth, while Su Erlang and Su Jinniang guessed the truth back then.

Looking at Old Master Su’s reaction, Su Jinniang knew that she had guessed correctly.

How could this be?

She was clearly better than Fatty Su in everything, but since when did Fatty Su step on her head time and time again? Now, even the jade pendant had become hers!

This was unfair!

“Dad?” Su Can looked at Old Master Su in a daze. “Could, could it be…”

“What happened?”

Su Dalang came back with water. Seeing that the atmosphere at home was not right, he quickly put down the bucket.

Old Master Su said, “Jinniang, go back to the house first.”

When the men of the Su family discussed matters, they usually did not allow women to be present.

“Yes, Grandpa.” Su Jinniang returned to her room gloomily.

She had entered, but her ear was pressed against the door to eavesdrop.

Su Can swallowed and asked Old Master Su, “Dad, what Jinniang said is…”

Su Erlang frowned and said, “Dad, now is not the time to fuss about this. The most important thing now is not to let them go to the village to bite us! Grandpa, we can’t sit still!”

Su Can shut up.

His heart was in turmoil. Who would have thought that their family’s jade pendant actually belonged to Su Cheng? Didn’t that mean that the favor the villagers owed was also Su Cheng’s?

Old Master Su looked at Su Erlang. “What ideas do you have?”

Su Erlang clenched his fists. “Make the first move!”

Su Can didn’t agree. “This method… has been used once…”

And they failed.

Su Erlang said, “The reason why we failed last time was that we didn’t know that the bag had been discovered by Su Daya and that Yuniang had appeared. This time, the jade pendant is in Su Daya’s hand. Let’s see how they can clear their name!”

Su Can was timid. “Why don’t we wait a little longer?”

Su Erlang said seriously, “Dad, what are you waiting for? When Eldest Sister moves the household register, will she still have any scruples about our Su family? Now that her household register is still in our hands, she’s more or less a little afraid and doesn’t dare to go overboard with us. Now is the most suitable time. After tomorrow, it’ll be too late!”
