Chapter 13 Sister-in-law
“Are they disregarding my sister’s well-being? Staying in the Anding Marquis Mansion, who knows, one day, I might not have a sister anymore.”
Shu Yucheng said displeasedly.
“If the family of Wenyuan abandons her because of this matter, they are probably not reasonable people. Such a marriage, we’re better off without it!”
Seeing her husband’s angry and sad expression, Zhou didn’t say anything more.
Although she didn’t know if her husband was right, the return of her younger sister had already been decided. Let’s just leave it at that for now.
“If in the future, Wenyuan has bad luck and encounters a husband like Shaoyu, don’t you hope that the family can support her, accept her, like how our parents treat Yuwans?” Shu Yucheng continued to ask.
Upon hearing this, Zhou became anxious, “Nonsense, how can you say that? How can you curse your own daughter for the sake of your sister!”
“Look at you, I was just giving an example, and it turned into a curse. Of course, I don’t want Wenyuan to encounter such a husband in the future, someone who doesn’t know any better! I’m just saying in case, in case Wenyuan faces such a situation, in the future, I will bring her back like our parents did for Yuwans, I won’t let my daughter suffer such humiliation in someone else’s home!”
Thinking about her own daughter, if she encountered a situation like her younger sister, she probably wouldn’t bear to see her suffer like that! With this in mind, because Yuwans returned, the slight discomfort in her heart was also let go.
She was a sister-in-law, and if her daughter encountered such a situation, she also hoped that her son and daughter-in-law would accept her daughter.
Empathy, her mother-in-law had always been good to her, she couldn’t make things difficult for her either.
Shu Yucheng pulled Zhou, “wifey, it’s as if I’ve given birth to three sons.”
“In the future, I will work even harder, strive to earn more for the family, climb the ranks, and ensure that your life doesn’t become worse than before your sister returned! Wenyuan’s marriage won’t be affected!”
“In the future, I’ll support you, the children, and your sister!”
Zhou chuckled and said, “Husband, you better keep your word!”
Seeing his wife appeased, Shu Yucheng also felt happy, “When have I ever not fulfilled my promises to you!”
Zhou snorted lightly and said, “I’ll go find the eldest sister-in-law and go see my sister together.”
“Alright, thank you, my lady!” Shu Yucheng bowed playfully to her.
Zhou laughed and scolded him before leaving.
In the main courtyard, Tang was directing the maids and servants, moving things from the storeroom to here.
“Elder sister.”
Zhou greeted with respect and asked, “Elder sister, are these preparations for the third younger sister?”
“Zhou.” Tang returned the greeting and replied, “Yes, I brought a few sets of clothes for the third younger sister, as well as some ginseng, which she might need later, and some ornaments. The third younger sister just returned, so let’s warm her room up.”
“I haven’t prepared anything.” Zhou felt very embarrassed, “I was planning to invite the eldest sister-in-law to go see the third younger sister together, but now I’m empty-handed, it’s not good to go to the third younger sister’s door with the eldest sister-in-law.”
Tang smiled, “Zhou, rest assured, I’m just preparing, I’ll send them over tomorrow. The third younger sister just returned today and might be tired. We’ll go see her later and come back, not to disturb her too much.”
“You’re very considerate, elder sister.” Zhou felt relieved and thought about preparing something for Yuwans when she returned.
The two sisters-in-law sat in the main courtyard for a while before heading to the Green Bamboo Garden.
Yuwan had just woken up not long ago when Qing He hurried in to report that the two sisters-in-law had arrived.
“Please come in.”
These two sisters-in-law of hers, in the previous life when the Shu family was confiscated and exiled, not one of them abandoned her.
Second sister-in-law Zhou was also very favored in her maternal family. When the news of the Shu family’s confiscation and exile came, the Zhou family rushed to the Shu family before the men left, urging the second sister-in-law to quickly leave and return to her maternal family. Second brother had also written a letter for her to leave, but the second sister-in-law tore up the letter in front of the Zhou family members, and with Wenyuan and her mother, moved to the outskirts of the city.
The eldest sister-in-law Tang sold all her dowry, arranged for people to take care of her father and elder brother all the way, otherwise, relying solely on her, her father and brother wouldn’t have been able to safely reach Lingnan.
So in this life, even if the two sisters-in-law were unhappy with her and ‘s return, she wouldn’t have any complaints.
Tang and Zhou entered the room together, “Third younger sister…”
Tang had just started speaking when Qing He hurried in to report, “Miss, the people sent by the master have brought back the letter.”
