Chapter 29 -029: Eldest Brother’s Marriage is on the Rocks

“You’re her biological father.

If you asked her, would she dare not to speak?” Liu’s wife stared, suddenly sneered, and said: “Did she meet some messy people out there?

She is heavily pregnant and yet restless, see the good daughter you brought up!”

No matter how filial Bai Yihong is, he was unhappy at this point.

He did not dare believe what he heard, he looked at Mrs.

Liu, and said: “Mother, are these words suitable for a grandmother?

It is not easy for Ruozhu, who is pregnant.

Aren’t you afraid that outsiders will gossip when they heard these words?”

Mrs.

Liu gave him a cold glance, “What are you yelling about?

Do you still remember that I’m your mother?

What do you mean outsiders would gossip?

I came here because I heard the gossip!”

Lin Ping’er, who had finished the bowls and chopsticks, just returned at this time and heard this.

She immediately jumped up.

“Mother, I respect you as the elder, but you should not belittle my daughter.

What outsiders say is their business.

As her grandmother, can you join them too?

Aren’t you afraid of losing face for the Bai family?” Lin Ping’er was angry.

She patted her clothes and said, “I’ll go to the old mansion now to ask father if the Bai family has such rules.”

Mrs.

Liu had sneaked over here, and if Lin Ping’er were to go and make a fuss in front of the old Bai, it would damage her reputation.

Mrs.

Liu quickly put on a smiley face, “Why can’t a family talk about things?

I also care about Ruozhu.

I just want to clarify things, and also have something to talk to people about.”

“Mother, there is no need to ask anymore.

My Ruozhu is knowledgeable and acts properly.

You don’t have to worry,” Bai Yihong said with a hint of unhappiness.

At the same time, Bai Ruozhu had cooked the boiled shrimps from the space and was relishing it with vinegar in her room.

She couldn’t help but listen to the movement in the main hall and grimace.

This grandmother is really unpleasant.

When she had nearly finished eating, she moved the shrimp shells and the vinegar bowl into the space by thought.

Now she discovered another advantage of the space, she could put things in from outside, and take things out directly from the pond.

In not very long, Mrs.

Liu walked out of the main hall in anger, still mumbling.

When she got under Bai Ruozhu’s window, she suddenly stopped, vigorously sniffed with her nose.

Huh, what is this smell?

Vinegar plus what else?

Could Bai Ruozhu be having a private cooking session?

Upon thinking this, Mrs.

Liu stealthily walked to the window, quietly cracked open Bai Ruozhu’s window, and peeked inside.

She saw Bai Ruozhu, whose belly was so big that she could only lie on her side, sleeping sweetly.

She began to wonder, did she smell it wrong?

Was Bai Ruozhu drinking vinegar in the room because she liked the smell of vinegar?

Mrs.

Liu curled her lips and walked towards the yard.

Sour for a boy and spicy for a girl, could the child in that girl’s womb be a boy?

Wouldn’t that be too good for her?

The sound of Mrs.

Liu leaving and slamming the yard door woke Bai Ruozhu.

She let out a slow breath, that was a close call just now, her grandmother’s nose was like a dog’s.

Thinking about this, she felt oddly tired and soon fell asleep.

When she woke up, she found the yard quiet.

It seemed her older brother was not tending the backyard vegetable garden, and her mother wasn’t feeding the pigs.

The pigs, hungry and making a fuss, were grunting noisily.

This behavior didn’t fit her mother’s nature.

Her mother never let the pigs go hungry, and expected them to grow fat every day so they could make money.

Bai Ruozhu slowly got up, gently pushed open the door and walked out, then she heard what seemed to be people talking in the main hall, only the voices were very small.

She quietly approached, and listened attentively, it was the voices of her parents, and her mother was crying.

Could it be because of her grandmother’s visit today?

Bai Ruozhu’s heart tightened, it seems there was some effect on the family’s emotions after all.

Unexpectedly, her mother’s voice came from inside the house, “I did say at the beginning that our family’s marriage with the Wan family is a little beyond our reach?

You didn’t listen.

You said that they sincerely appreciate our eldest son, but now what is their intention?

Caiyue’s mother has claimed to be out for the second time, which is clearly avoiding me.”

Bai Yihong sighed, “Maybe they really have something to do and are not at home, don’t overthink it.

If we can wait a few more days, it will be a different story if the second child manages to pass the Scholar’s examination.”

Lin Ping’er sniffed, “How can it always be coincidental?

They didn’t even invite me into the house.

When I went to visit before, they offered me tea.

Now they are avoiding me.”

Bai Yihong frowned.

He remembered that when the village head invited him to discuss about the school, Wan Qilao was also there.

He greeted Wan Qilao, who was polite.

But thinking about it now, that courtesy was coupled with a sense of distance.

“Let’s wait and see.

Don’t let the eldest son know about this,” Bai Yihong sighed and said.

“I know I won’t tell,” Lin Ping’er had a heavy nasal sound, her nose was blocked from crying.

Bai Ruozhu left the yard with a sense of weakness in her legs.

She felt sad.

Although the root cause of all this was from her past self, she was still upset.

Her family had always been nice to her and never displayed the slightest displeasure because of her.

They spoiled and trusted her more than ever.

She truly considered them her family, hence she wished for everyone to live a good life.

She hoped that her parents would be in love and healthy, her second brother could successfully pass the Scholar’s examination, her elder brother could soon marry his wife, live a happy life, and quickly give her a little nephew.

So in the future, he could play with the child in her belly…

These were the desires she currently harbored, but because of those rumors, it affected her family somewhat.

As a man, her elder brother cared a lot about his reputation.

If he found out about this, he would surely not continue with the marriage arrangement with the Wan family.

But in the memory of her previous life, her elder brother seemed to have a very good impression of Wan Caiyue, in fact, he liked her very much.

So when her mother went to buy betrothal gifts, her elder brother was very happy as well.

But what to do now?

Bai Ruozhu was wandering around the village aimlessly and from afar, she saw several women chatting.

One of them was Liu San’s wife, with whom she had a grudge against before, so she quickly hid behind a tree.

“Did you not hear?

Previously it was said that the man of Bai Ruozhu came back, and even became rich, but did any of you see him move into Bai Ruozhu’s house?

He was supposed to be a live-in son-in-law, right?

So why hasn’t he moved in yet?” Liu’s wife sarcastically said.

“Yes indeed, do you know what happened?” Another nosy woman hastily asked.

Liu’s wife revealed a look of triumphant joy and disdain on her face, “Did you not hear that Chang Sheng was already married and Bai Ruozhu was just his concubine.

His legal wife would not let her through the door.

So she was sort of his mistress.

Bai’s second child was embarrassed and came up with the live-in son-in-law and Chang Sheng’s incident as cover.”

“What?” Someone raised their voice, “Although we’re poor, we aren’t cheap enough to be someone’s mistress, right?”

Immediately others chimed in, “Yes, being someone’s mistress is just too despicable!”
