Thirteenth Lady's Comback: Her Everyday Life as a Bystander Chapter 132 - 19: Reunion, Part 2

After Susu finished speaking, she saw Yang Liu and Ning Cui looking at her with admiration and couldn’t help but laugh.

"What’s the matter? You’ve been in the manor for so many years and still don’t understand that nothing is more important than having a good son! Look at the First Madam; if she hadn’t given birth to the Princely Heir, she would have been divorced ten tis by the Master. But now, isn’t she still bouncing around in the manor."

In the past, Susu would have never said such things; criticizing others behind their back is a petty behavior.

But now, with the sisters she grew up with soon to be married off, Susu felt like she was marrying off her own daughters, eager to share everything she knew with them.

She even wanted to explain all the sches from ancient to modern-day household and palace intrigues, but they were too shocking, so Susu could only use examples close at hand.

It’s not that Susu didn’t believe in love, but the routines of both modern and ancient tis didn’t give Susu enough confidence. Especially in ancient tis when having a second wife was legal, a third wasn’t rare, and even fourth and fifth were possible.

Susu didn’t want her sisters to be heartbroken in the future, so she had to instill the concept that having children is crucial!

Yang Liu and Ning Cui nodded in agreent. In fact, their mothers spoke even more frankly and profoundly than this, but sohow Susu’s words were more convincing to them.

Seeing the two nodding, Susu added, "We have plenty of dowries ourselves, so we don’t need to rely on n to live. But once a man gets married, he should take the responsibility of supporting his wife and children. The idea of using the wife’s dowry is sothing we absolutely cannot encourage! The dowry is our fallback and also future support for our children. To put it bluntly, if, unfortunately, a husband becos unfaithful and the dowry is squandered, what will we and our children do? Look at those concubines in our manor who are not favored; they can’t even get a bucket of hot water without handing over so money."

These words were mainly for Ning Cui, who knew Susu’s good intentions and pinched Susu’s nose with a smile.

"You roundabout talker, do you take for a fool! Just like Yang Liu said, what haven’t we seen under Old Madam’s wing all these years? Do you think we can’t even get a cup of hot water? We’re older than you, yet you worry about this and that. What a waste of these eighteen years."

Yang Liu couldn’t bear to touch Susu’s face, so she pinched Susu’s earlobe that looked like a yuanbao!

"We’re all in the Capital, so if things get bad, we can always turn to our family or Old Madam. It’s you marrying into the Northwest who should be more cautious. Although we’ve known Hong Sheng for years, we aren’t that familiar. But considering that Old Madam and the three masters all speak well of him, he shouldn’t be too bad. You also have shared feelings since childhood, and since he proposed, it seems genuine. Don’t forget to write to us if you need anything when you go, and if we can’t help, we can always seek Old Madam’s help."

The three sisters comforted each other in turns, discussing what they knew about their future husbands’ families, joking around and enjoying themselves.

When it was dinner ti, Yang Liu’s mother finished her work and ca ho, seeing her daughter happy and relaxed. She finally let out a sigh of relief and was very grateful to Susu and Ning Cui, sending Yang Liu’s courtyard a steady stream of good food and fun items.

Susu and Ning Cui comnted to Yang Liu: "Not realizing one’s blessing even when blessed, such are the hearts of parents everywhere." (2300)

Since they were there to accompany Yang Liu, Susu and Ning Cui decided to stay until Yang Liu got married, and Old Madam certainly wouldn’t object.

Ning Cui’s father and mother thought it would be a good idea for her to learn the processes of becoming a new bride, so they also sent a ssage allowing her to stay for a few more days.

The three sisters happily played for a few days just like in their childhood, though with the absence of Bisi, there was a touch of lancholy.

Who knew Bisi couldn’t be ntioned casually; she surprisingly arrived in the Capital the day before Yang Liu’s wedding.

Seeing Bisi with her five-month-pregnant belly, awkwardly helped off the carriage by her husband, Yang Liu, Ning Cui, and Susu, who went to greet her at the gate, were overjoyed to tears.

Yang Liu wanted to greet her like she used to in their childhood, with a playful slap, but seeing Bisi with a big belly, looking tired but smiling, she couldn’t bring herself to do it, so she just wiped her tears, crying and laughing.

"You little brat, you made co here on purpose!"

Bisi’s husband was also a family servant, and her cousin. Because of Bisi, he was also familiar with Yang Liu and the others.

Seeing his wife teary-eyed, afraid she’d hurt herself, and knowing the sisters were having a reunion, he didn’t know how to intervene and could only look to Ning Cui and Susu for help.
