Yang Yongxian came to Li Xiu Xin's side and helped her up. "You don't have to kneel, and you shouldn't cry. I'll tell my mother the truth. At worst, I'll just lose face!"

“Yongxian, don’t go!” Li Xiu urged.

Yang Yongxian had already released Li Xiu's heart and came to the bedside, facing Tan who had begun to be furious: "Mother, it's my grandson who is incompetent. He hasn't been able to accomplish anything for several nights."

"The grandson dare not tell you the truth, afraid of losing face, so this made Xiu Xin take the blame..."

"Hiss..."

There were a few gasps of surprise from inside the house.

Liu and Bao Suyun were both dumbfounded, their eyes wide with astonishment as they looked Yang Yongxian up and down.

Yang Yongxian's face was flushed red, ashamed to even lift his head. He stood by the bed like a piece of wood.

Li Xiuxin buried her head again, sobbing softly.

Liu was the first to recover from her shock. She was so excited, it was as if she had been injected with chicken blood.

“Yongxian, you wouldn’t be taking the blame for your daughter-in-law to protect her, would you?” asked Liu.

“There are a hundred ways for a mother-in-law to favor her daughter-in-law, you shouldn't take everything on yourself. This is because your fourth aunt is tight-lipped. If it were someone else who couldn't keep their mouth shut, your matter would spread throughout the village in an hour, and then when you walk outside, everyone will laugh at you to death!” Liu said chattering away.

"In this house, you're the only one with your mouth running wild. Get out of my sight!"

>

Tan interrupted Liu.

Liu shi shrank her neck and quickly hid to the side.

If you don't hide any longer, disaster will befall you.

Here, Tan finished drinking Liu's drink. With a look of astonishment on his face, he asked Yang Yongxian: "Yongxian ah, although your aunt always speaks nonsense, what she said this time still has a bit of truth to it."

“If you're trying to protect the Li family, and you put something like 'no' on yourself, that's like putting a bucket of shit on your own head! You must have been hit in the head by a door or are just incredibly stupid!” said Tan Shi.

Yang Yongxian smiled wryly and shook his head: "Mother, I'm not that great and selfless. If Xiu Xin truly wasn't innocent, I would be the first to refuse to tolerate it."

“But I'm not weak or selfish either. It's my own problem, and yet I made Xio Xin take the blame for me.”

“It’s my own problem. Xi Xin is still a young, innocent girl. She’s pure, so please don’t make things difficult for her anymore.” Yang Yongxian pleaded.

Hearing this, Tan Shi was at a loss.

The old woman was both happy and sad in her heart.

The good news is that Li, the daughter-in-law whom I most approved of, was indeed innocent.

What worries me is that my own grandson, he...he can't even function properly...

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

“You all, get out! As for what happened today, anyone who dares to tell, I'll skin her!”

After a moment's pause, Mrs. Tan suddenly spoke.

Bao Suyun immediately nodded and said, "Mother, rest assured, I won't say a word to anyone else."

Then Liu also quickly stated, "Mother, please rest assured, I'm not foolish, I know the importance of things."

After Liu and Bao left, there were only Yang Yongxian, Li Xiu Xin, and Tan in the house.

Tan said, "Yongxian, you go busy with your things too. I won't press this matter further. Just remember to find a doctor and get some medicine when you have time!"

Yang Yongxian let out a soft "hmm" and said, "It worries my mother to see me in this state. It's truly the grandson's fault for being unfilial."

“Don't worry, Nanny, I'll go see a doctor.”

After saying that, Yang Yongxian left the east room in disgrace.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Li Xiu Xin also wanted to leave, but she was left behind by Tan Shi alone.

"I have something to tell you, stay here." Tan said.

This is the translated text:

Li Xiu Xin could only nervously stay.

Tan summoned Li Xiu Xin to her side, her voice softening from its previous coldness.

"Previously, I made you suffer, it's the milk's fault, not mine. Don't hold this old woman accountable." Tan shi was afraid that she had spoken softly to someone for the first time.

Li Xiuxin had long heard of Tan's temperament.

Right now, she was slightly taken aback and looked up at Tan Shi. However, the look on Tan Shi's face, which resembled a tiger's, still made Li Xiu feel somewhat intimidated.

She quickly lowered her eyes and whispered, "It's alright. It's natural for 奶 (mama/nurse) to be angry. As long as the misunderstanding is cleared up, that's fine."

Tan said "hm" and then continued, "I kept you here to tell you there's a saying: 'When a woman marries a rooster, she follows the rooster; when she marries a dog, she follows the dog.'"

Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!

"Now that you have married into our Yang family as Yongxian's wife and the granddaughter-in-law of our family,"

"So, as long as the Yang family doesn't disown you, while you're alive, you are a member of our Yang family. When you die, you'll still be a ghost of our Yang family."

“No matter what Yongxian's body is like, you, as his betrothed wife, cannot despise him. You must carefully and sincerely take care of him and serve him, understand?” Madam Tan asked again.

Hearing Tan's words, Li Xiu Xin felt a strange mix of emotions in her heart for some reason.

Deep down, she thought the same way. No matter what Yang Yongxian became, as his wife, she would never leave him.

To put it simply, once you're married, you should be faithful to your husband for life. A woman should not serve two husbands.

But when these words came from Grandmother Tan's mouth, Li Xiu felt extremely uncomfortable.

But as his daughter-in-law, she could only softly say: "Mother, I understand. Please rest assured, I will accompany Yongxian well and take good care of him."

Tan nodded, a hint of a smile finally appearing on her face.

"Then go out, I'm tired and need to rest." she said.

Li Xiu's heart nodded.

Just a few steps later, he was called back by Mrs. Tan.

“You four brothers from the main family, you were all already separated.”

"Since you and the Zhao family just moved in, coinciding with the joyous Lunar New Year, until the sixth day of the new year, all four households in your main family will have meals together."

“Wait until after the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, and then each of you should start your own lives anew,” said Tan.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Li Xiu Xin nodded, "Okay, I'll do whatever Grandma says. I'm going to start cooking lunch now."

"Well, go on then." Tan waved her hand.

Li Xiu Xin just now lowered her head and left the east room, going to the kitchen in the upper room.

Li Xiu Xin just arrived at the kitchen and stood by the stove, staring blankly and sighing softly.

In a short while, Zhao Liuer came in.

She still held a apron in her hand, walking lightly, humming a little tune.

While Li Xiu Xin's face was filled with sadness, Zhao Liu Er beamed with happiness and sweetness. Her eyes sparkled, and even her smile seemed to carry the warmth of spring. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

At first glance, she looks like a newlywed, radiating the kind of happiness that comes from being thoroughly satisfied by Yang Yongzhi.

"Oh, sister-in-law, you arrived before me?" Zhao Liuer saw Li Xiu Xin and greeted her with a smile.

Li Xiuxin was lost in her own world of sorrow and didn't notice Zhao Liuer enter.

Not until Zhao Liuer came to her side and lightly touched her arm did Li Xiu's heart suddenly come back to herself.
