Chapter 33 The Su Family Gives Birth to a Daughter

When Sun Shan saw his grandparents and two younger cousins, they immediately changed into their old clothes.

Grandma sighed and said, "The cotton-padded jacket is so soft and much warmer than what we wear."

The grandfather also smiled and said, "Not only is it warm, it's also very soft. Hehe, I have to thank my good grandson and his aunt."

Old Lady Su touched Sun Shan's little face. Sun Shan felt uncomfortable, and forced himself to hold back his smile. He sneaked out and sat next to Sun Boming.

The woman was too passionate to bear.

Da Gen and Er Gen were also sitting next to Sun Shan, looking at him flatteringly. The two little guys had snot running down their noses and sniffed them, which made Sun Shan tremble all over. It was so dirty.

Old Mrs. Su looked outside and realized it was getting late, so she said to Little Liu, "Go and cook, it's almost noon. Dagen and Dagu have been gone for so long, they must be starving."

Little Liu stood up reluctantly and said with a fake smile, "I understand, mother. I'll go."

Su quickly shouted, "Second sister will also come to eat, please trouble sister-in-law to make more."

Little Liu's eyes widened and she shouted, "That unlucky guy is here to eat too?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the whole place fell silent.

Old Mrs. Su and Old Man Su were so angry that even the clothes from the city didn't look good anymore.

Old Madam Su scolded, "Liu, who do you say is the unlucky star?"

Su Shi hurriedly supported Old Lady Su, frowning, and said with anger: "That's my sister, my mother's daughter. Her sister is coming back today. How about coming to her mother's house for a meal?"

Pointing to a sack of rice and meat in the main room, he angrily said, "It's ok to cook these, but they are not yours to eat. If you don't want to, I'll take them to my second sister to eat."

Of course, Xiao Liu couldn't let her elder sister-in-law take it away. A bag of rice and some meat were worth a lot of money.

He forced a smile and said, "Aunt Dagen, I just said nonsense. I will go and cook."

After saying that, he put the rice and meat into the bedroom, not giving Su a chance to take them back.

Su looked at her younger brother angrily. The reason why Xiao Liu dared to say that was because she relied on this good younger brother. At the beginning, her mother had asked for another cousin to marry him.

But he, who was flirting with Xiao Liu, was determined to marry her.

As a result, they become even worse when they get it back, which is not good for the parents either.

The more Su thought about it, the angrier she became. If she hadn't married Shanzi's father and hadn't had an elder sister-in-law in the capital city with a good family background, then Xiao Liu probably wouldn't have come to her house.

When Su saw his elder sister looking at him, he quickly said, "Sister, I'll go to the kitchen to help."

If I leave a step later, my eldest sister will definitely scold me, so it is better to leave. There is no other way, the richest relative in the family is my eldest sister, and I must not offend her.

After the couple left, Old Man Su and Old Lady Su sighed.

Old Man Su frowned and said, "My dear daughter, take a look at Sunjia Village to see if there are any widowers. Introduce them to your second sister. It's not a good idea for her to stay in Hulingshan Village. People in the village will gossip about her."

Old Man Su got a headache when he thought of his second daughter who lived at the head of the village. Rumors were everywhere in the village. Fortunately, all four daughters in the family were married.

It's fine that I have two boys. There are no girls in the family, so I don't have to worry about marriage for the time being.

Su also felt sorry for her second sister. When she was a girl, she was the most capable. Thinking of her current situation, she felt sad and said in distress, "Father, mother, I have always been paying attention to her, but she has three daughters. Alas, most people would not dare to marry them. If they are too poor, they will suffer more if they marry."

If I marry my second sister, I will have to support four mouths. Who in a poor family can bear that?

Old Madam Su also knew the dilemma and cursed: "God damn Xu, it's obviously because their family can't give birth to a son, but they insist on blaming my second daughter. I was blind to get married like this."

The more he spoke, the angrier he became, and he wished he could eat the Xu family's flesh and drink their blood.

Sun Shan and his four sisters were a little scared when they saw their grandmother's ferocious look. How much hatred must she have shown to make her gnashing her teeth like that.

Su quickly comforted her and said, "Mother, don't talk about the past. Their family will get their comeuppance sooner or later."

Old Man Su had already been angry, but there was no point getting angry now. He sighed and said, "Well, what I'm worried about now is my third sister. She has given birth to two girls in a row. It's really annoying."

Old man Su didn't know what sin he had committed, as he had four girls and one son.

The eldest daughter gave birth to four girls in a row before she had a son. The second daughter gave birth to three girls in a row and was divorced. The third daughter gave birth to two girls in a row. As for the fourth daughter, she got married last year and there is still no news about her pregnancy.

Why does the daughter of the Su family like to give birth to girls?

Old Man Su took a deep look at his eldest son-in-law who remained silent. Fortunately, this was a good thing. The eldest daughter was lucky.

Speaking of this, not only Old Man Su and Old Lady Su were upset, but Mrs. Su was also upset. She understood the despair of not being able to give birth to a son the most. She was also worried about her third sister and hoped that her third sister-in-law would be a good man.

Asked: "Have the third sister and her husband come back?"

Old Man Su and Old Lady Su shook their heads and said, "I didn't reply to you. I didn't reply to you last year. I don't know if I will reply to you this year."

The third daughter married at the same distance from home as the eldest daughter, and the eldest daughter always brought rich gifts during the New Year and other festivals.

Not to mention the second daughter, she was divorced.

My third daughter has been married for so long and has only come back a few times. It makes me angry just thinking about it.

The fact that he can hold his head high in the village is all thanks to his eldest daughter. In the entire Hulingshan Village, the gift from the daughter's parents' home is the most grand. Anyone who sees it will say something jealous.

Like today, a big sack of rice, ducks, chickens, pork, and a cotton-padded jacket, piled up and seen outside, who wouldn’t be envious.

When you get married, it is better to marry someone of higher status.

Seeing that the adults were unhappy, Sun Shan decided to break the unhappy atmosphere and said, "Grandpa, grandma, the peach trees outside are in bloom. They are very beautiful. Can you cut a few branches for me to take back?"

When Old Lady Su heard her grandson's words, she smiled and said, "Shanzi, what do you want peaches for? Do you want to plant peach trees?"

Sun Shan was embarrassed, but said, "No, I want to take it back to give to my grandmother. It's New Year's Day, and I want to put peach blossoms at home to bless my grandmother to live a long life."

There is a custom in Guangnan Province to buy peach blossoms during the New Year.

Peach blossom has three meanings. One is harvesting love. Second, the pronunciation of “red peach” and “grand plan” means to have great ambitions. Third, peach blossom is a flower in the sky and its fruit is a peach. Eating it can prolong life, which means longevity.

Old Man and Old Lady Su didn't understand why putting peach blossoms on the table could bring longevity, but they just cut a few peach branches and let their grandson take them if he liked them.

Old Man Su smiled and said, "You are such a filial boy. Come here, let me cut your hair for you."

Sun Bomin quickly said, "Dad, the peach tree is growing well, please don't prune Shanzi."

I don’t know where Shanzi heard this from, but Sun Boming didn’t understand what the peach branches were.

Sun Shan immediately retorted: "It was my cousin Yu who said that. He said that their family would put peach blossoms on display during the Chinese New Year, and they were specially placed in Old Lady He's room to bless our great-grandmother with good health and a long life."

In fact, Sun Shan was not talking nonsense. Yu Ge'er did say that he would go to the flower street and buy New Year flowers during the Spring Festival.

Huangyang County also has a flower street, but it is too small and the consumer group cannot afford the cost of buying New Year flowers. At least no one in Sunjia Village buys them.
