Chapter 1308: Helplessness
Su Ningxiu was curious about her future sister-in-law’s appearance.
Su Yunjin, however, didn’t mind much. "Second sister, appearance is secondary. What’s most important is that the future sister-in-law has a good character. As long as she treats our elder brother well and is good to our parents, nothing else matters." Elder brother was an honest person; if his wife were too pretty, elder brother’s temperament certainly wouldn’t be able to manage her.
An average appearance would do. As long as the future sister-in-law’s looks weren’t too poor, that would be fine. Having just thought about her future sister-in-law’s appearance, Su Ningxiu, after hearing Su Yunjin’s words, also felt there was sense in what Su Yunjin said. That the future sister-in-law’s character was what mattered most, and everything else was secondary.
"Little sister, I will go to the wharf where our elder brother works in a couple of days to see that Miss Xiaoyu," declared Su Ningxiu, who had decided to go look at the girl elder brother liked.
She then asked Su Yunjin if she would go? Su Yunjin, too, was very concerned about elder brother’s marital matters. Considering that Gu Ya was overseeing the liquor store and they had servants and apprentices in the shop, it would be completely fine even if she were to leave for half a day or a full day. The second sister asked Su Yunjin if she would go? After pondering for a moment, Su Yunjin looked at her sister and nodded, saying, "I’ll go."
Su Yunjin’s judgment of people was always accurate. If she went with her second sister to see, after having seen Miss Xiaoyu, she would be able to determine what kind of person Xiaoyu was?
Whether she could truly be her sister-in-law?
When Su Yunjin wanted to accompany Su Ningxiu to the wharf, Gu Ya heard of it but furrowed his brow, "Yunjin, you are pregnant, and the wharf is a place with many merchants and a mix of all sorts. It’s best you don’t go."
Su Ningxiu looked toward Gu Ya.
"Brother-in-law, rest assured! I’m here. I will protect my little sister and ensure nothing happens to her," asserted Su Ningxiu with a face full of guarantee, although Wang Meng was also apprehensive about letting Su Ningxiu go to the wharf.
Thus, the silent Wang Meng now spoke up, "Xiuxiu, brother-in-law is right. The wharf is a place of all sorts, how can you and little sister, being women, go to such a place? If you truly encounter danger, how will you and little sister deal with it?" Towards the end,
Wang Meng’s face also darkened somewhat.
