Chapter 69: Chapter 69: At This Point

Translator: 549690339

Mr. and Mrs. Su are so fond of the Fourth Daughter-in-law that as long as she asks, they will certainly agree, and for the Su Family, it is just a trivial matter that can be easily handled. Therefore, there will be no problem as long as the Fourth Daughter-in-law is willing to agree.

Su Wenyue also found Mrs. Li a bit odd, too enthusiastic, completely exceeding what she had imagined. Mrs. Liu, on the other hand, was not like Mrs. Li. It’s possible that Mrs. Li had genuine intentions, but Mrs. Liu, the kind of person who wouldn’t act without a benefit, had no reason to be so eager to please without a good motive. Su Wenyue did not believe that the little favors she had shown Mrs. Liu from time to time would warrant this level of attentiveness.

However, no matter what Mrs. Liu’s purpose was, Su Wenyue didn’t care. As long as she was unwilling, no one could force her to do anything. Moreover, Mrs. Liu’s eagerness, especially her nearly sycophantic behavior toward her parents, was highly likely related to the Su Family, and they would probably come to ask for something sooner or later. Su Wenyue decided to wait for Mrs. Liu to come to her.

Mr. and Mrs. Su stayed at the Han Family for less than two hours before bidding farewell. Before leaving, Mrs. An reluctantly gave many earnest admonitions to her daughter, and prepared gifts for her daughter’s sisters-in-law as well, asking them to take good care of Su Wenyue. Naturally, Mrs. Wang was automatically ignored by everyone; no one at the Han Family would be tactless enough to mention her, and it was already good enough that the Su Family didn’t trouble Mrs. Wang.

“Madam and Master In-laws, rest assured, we are all one family. There is no such thing as taking care of someone or not. A person like our Fourth Younger Sister-in-law is someone we need to protect; how could we possibly mistreat her? You can be at ease. From now on, anything concerning Fourth Younger Sister-in-law is my concern. Whoever dares to speak ill of her, I will fight with them to the end.”

Mrs. Li, with her clumsy way of speaking, could only repeatedly express her thanks, unable to add much else. However, it was Mrs. Liu who fervently made promises in front of Mr. and Mrs. Su, almost as if she was ready to tear out her heart to show her determination.

Mrs. An showed more kindness to Mrs. Li, acknowledging her as a simple and honest person who wouldn’t be difficult to get along with as a sister-in-law and wouldn’t plot against her daughter. Although Mrs. An kept a smiling face towards Mrs. Liu, there was a hint of irony in her eyes. If it hadn’t been for her daughter’s sake, she wouldn’t have bothered with such a person. However, an overt display of vulgarity and greed was easier to deal with than someone like Mrs. Wang who would scheme behind one’s back. With just a little benefit promised, she could be easily manipulated.

As they saw off the Su Family’s horse carriage, Mrs. Li showed gratitude, while

Mrs. Liu was unexpectedly delighted to receive special gifts from Madam Su, which made her overjoyed.

Mrs. Liu couldn’t wait to return to her room and eagerly opened her gifts right there, revealing two pieces of silk and a box of powdered incense and rouge, typical items from the Su Family’s store. To Mrs. Liu, these were luxuries she had never used before.

“This really is too much, our In-laws are so generous. These are such lavish gifts; how can we accept them? This is all thanks to the Fourth
