Chapter 1108: There's no need to say more.

Needless to say, it's not something to be praised for a grandson to be unable to get help from his grandmother. It's easy to say it too often.

Zhou Banxia immediately picked up the conversation, saying that it was inevitable for a young person to be impetuous, and then pointed to a woman, "Isn't that Wu Lang's wife, Zhang Chunyan?"
"No."

"Really?"

"No. Wulang's wife is not Third Aunt. She's very clever. She won't listen to Third Aunt and stay obediently waiting for Third Aunt to come and take her home."

Furthermore, if she were going to be alone, she wouldn't be by herself. Even if Third Aunt isn't with us right now, there would be at least one maid or servant to escort her home.

Absolutely right.

This is the truth.

"I don't know what my third aunt was thinking. If she's not feeling well, she can just stay at home in the old courtyard. Why make her come here with her big belly when we're not even home?"

"My third aunt has the nerve to say her daughter Yanzi wanted to help watch the kids today. Isn't that just adding to the chaos? Now she needs someone to wait on her. Nobody owes anyone a favor."

"It's alright, let them worry about it, we'll just do our own thing." Zhou Banxia said casually, "Now that we're closer, can you tell who it is?"

Ma Shan followed her gaze and immediately froze. "My second sister-in-law? Didn't she and my mother come back early? Why are they heading this way? What are they doing in the village?"

"Could it be that they've come looking for us?" Zhou Banxia asked, but her tone was very certain. "They're probably worried that we won't be able to come back from over there anytime soon."

"That's right. If I hadn't pulled you, would you have been able to come back? Even so, it was only because my aunt and I had agreed beforehand that she would lend a hand and let us get back first."

It was also thanks to my aunt crying that everyone rushed to comfort her; otherwise, given the attitude of those relatives today, my aunt alone wouldn't have been able to do anything.

Luckily, I was careful. I knew that Da Niu's attempt to get you back early today wouldn't work. She was definitely going to be part of the wedding procession; she couldn't refuse.

Speaking of which, Sanya, didn't your aunt say the other day that Sanniu was going to wait until Wulang's wife gave birth before getting married? Why is it that now that the date is approaching, Sanniu is too embarrassed to show her face?

"It's close by. The two auspicious days we picked are in October at the latest. Even if we get married in September, it won't be more than a few months. Besides, the workshop is busy right now."

Is that so?

No matter how busy the workshop is, it can't not even take half a day off. San Niu is not like Da Niu, who is in charge of the pancreas workshop. Da Niu is taking a day off today.

Ma Shan rolled her eyes at Zhou Banxia, ​​not quite believing her. "Don't try to cover for Third Aunt. Are you still going to ask for those two auspicious days? Ha!"
She also said that San Niu was too embarrassed to show her face, which was really just her way of showing off to her aunt that her daughter's husbands were all from better and better families.

I had thought that San Niu was like Da Niu, with Aunt Chang Gen pressuring her so much that San Niu couldn't refuse. But then again, San Niu has become quite particular these days.

Given the large number of men, young and old, on this day, it would be best to keep San Niu out of the public eye. If anything goes wrong, it will be too late to regret it.

"We think San Niu's marriage is a great match for her; there are plenty of families who would love to have a daughter-in-law like her, like Tian Er Gouzi's family—no, wait, that's not right, San Ya!"

As she spoke, Ma Shan clapped her hands together, "It's definitely not because Third Aunt likes to be particular about rules these days. Third Sister didn't show up today because Third Uncle's family was keeping an eye on Eldest Uncle's family!"

Think about it, they dare to scheme against even Liu Lang, so how could Uncle San's family not be afraid of them? If they were to help Tian Er Gouzi's son scheme against San Niu today, it would be so easy to scheme against them.

"Don't you think so? They don't even have to do anything, just let one of Tian Er Gouzi's sons get pushed around and end up hugging San Niu while the groom bursts through the door? Tsk!" "...Tsk~" To be honest, it's not impossible to find out. Zhou Banxia didn't even dare say Ma Shan was just imagining things, overthinking things. "Tsk~"

Ma Shan burst into laughter at her two "tsk" sounds, thinking to herself, "Now you can't say they can't do it, can you?"

They wouldn't do anything so absurd, let alone...
"Putting aside my aunt, that's her maternal family, and her closest brothers. Even my uncle might not be without malice in his heart, wanting to see my third uncle doing well."

He can't even tolerate Liu Lang, who is better at studying than his older son, and who didn't cost him a penny. Don't be so petty. These days, he sees his third uncle climbing all over him every day. How can he tolerate that?
Someone like him would surely want his third uncle to be even poorer and have even less successful children than him. We'll talk about it later. If my second sister-in-law hears this, what's the point of all this?

Your second sister-in-law is heartbroken. She came to you with all her heart, and you complained that she left too quickly! "Fine, we'll talk about it later. Where are you going, second sister-in-law?"

"Looking for you and Tiger Girl." Ma Ersao replied, stopping to wait for the two of them to approach. "Hurry up, you two are so slow."

We saw you two a long time ago, and it's been ages since you got here. Mom and Auntie were so worried you'd get stuck and wouldn't be able to come back.”

"Sanya, she walks so slowly. She didn't want to ride in the carriage and insisted on walking herself. Did Maidong tell us when she went back that we came out from that direction?"

You are so good!

Someone kept stopping mid-sentence and wouldn't continue, even pulling me back so I wouldn't take another step!

Zhou Banxia chuckled and shook her head, "I guess Mai Dong ran into Second Sister-in-law ahead. She went back to inform her first, because Second Sister-in-law was worried about us waiting here."

Ma Ersao nodded hurriedly, "That's right, Maidong went to see your mother-in-law first. Hu Niu, I heard that your son-in-law is going on a long trip early tomorrow morning?"

Didn't you say so?
Zhou Banxia turned her head to look at Ma Shan.

"Second sister-in-law, you didn't know?" Ma Shan was also surprised. "Weren't you there when I told Mother this morning that my husband and father-in-law were going on a long trip tomorrow?"

Ma Ersao could say that her sister-in-law was whispering to her mother-in-law in a sneaky manner, and that her mother-in-law was about to hand her the baby she was holding. Could she have been so tactless as to take the baby away from her?
Her mother-in-law wasn't like Aunt Gu; which daughter-in-law hadn't been scolded to tears?

Even now, they keep saying that they've separated the family property from their son, and that the old couple no longer manage the household and don't care about anything.

Whenever a daughter-in-law gets a new dress, her mother-in-law, as if afraid her son won't argue with his wife, will nag her son about how hard it was for the old couple to save up their wealth.

Not to mention the favors her son's in-laws had to give; she'd heard her husband mention several times that her mother-in-law had looked through old favor books.

Only the third son's family is a bit dim-witted.

Do you really think your mother-in-law doesn't care about anything? Now that you're in charge of the household, you still dare to bring so many things back to your parents' home. Now you probably have to ask your third son for every penny you spend.

Although Zhou Banxia didn't know why Ma Ersao was taking so long to reply, she still took over the conversation, "It must be because you didn't explain clearly. Aunt and Second Sister-in-law were completely confused."

Like last time I wanted you to go to Peach Village with me, you misheard it as, "Okay, you go ahead, I'll stay home."

That one with the biggest misunderstanding—didn't she make me so angry that I asked her if she was even listening to what I was saying?

“You’re different? I was talking about your eldest sister yesterday, hahaha, and you still think that the third aunt I’m talking about is Da Niu’s biological mother.”
