Chapter 16: Washing Clothes

Su Wen didn't know what had happened at Chen Guihua's house. The sisters had a good meal of braised pork and a bowl of delicious bone soup before washing up and going to bed.

After a hard day, Su Wen fell into a deep sleep as soon as her head touched the pillow. 𝐛𝐞𝐝𝗻𝐨𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝐜𝐨𝗺

She slept until dawn. When she got up the next day, Su Qing and Su Xiu had already gone to work. Little sister Su was sitting in the courtyard, washing clothes with a washboard. When she saw Su Wen get up and come out, she immediately went up to her.

"Big sister, are you hungry? Second sister made bone soup and coarse grain noodles in the pot. Wash your face first, I'll go get you some noodles." As she spoke, she placed the washbasin and towel on the stone table in the courtyard, like a diligent little girl.

"Thank you, Little sister."

After Su Wen washed up and ate, she let Little sister go out to play, while she took the washbasin to the river to rinse the clothes.

The county's famous Clear Water River was not far from Trinity village. It only took ten minutes to walk from the village to the riverbank. When Su Wen arrived, there were already a lot of young girls and ladies on the riverbank, surrounding Sun Yunyun, envious of her being able to study.

"Yunyun, you're so lucky. Your parents allow you to continue to study and get into university. You'll be the first university student in our brigade in the future."

"Yunyun, you'll be a city resident from now on."

Sun Yunyun was flattered and smiled shyly. She calculated that she had to get into a university in the provincial city as soon as possible and go to Zhou Hengyang. The previous night, she had dreamed that Zhou Hengyang had already arrived in the provincial capital and returned to his own home.

Sun Yunyun was extremely excited when she thought of the courtyard and beautiful buildings that appeared in her dream. She turned around and saw Su Wen, so she looked away.

No, she had to think of a way for Su Wen to get Zhao Jiangang to be a live-in son-in-law.

Otherwise, Zhou Hengyang would never belong to her.

In fact, Sun Yunyun had also felt that it was strange these few days. She had previously agreed with Su Wen that as long as Zhou Hengyang was driven away, she would immediately let Zhao Jiangang be a live-in son-in-law. In the end, Su Wen had given the betrothal money to Zhou Hengyang. It had been almost half a month, and Su Wen had not come to ask her for help in matchmaking.

She was anxious!

"Su Wen, why are you here to do the laundry yourself?" Sun Yunyun asked in surprise. "It's the first time I've seen you on the riverbank!"

As soon as she finished speaking, uncontrollable laughter rang out from all around.

Everyone in the village knew that Su Wen, as the eldest sister, was lazy and never worked in the fields or did any housework. She would always get her younger sisters to do it.

"If I don't wash my own clothes, are you going to help me?" She was treating her like a fool! On the surface, she was showing concern for her, but in reality, she was secretly accusing her of bullying her sisters and being lazy.

Alright! The original character was indeed lazy, but it wasn't up to Sun Yunyun to secretly ruin her image.

Sun Yunyun had a stunned expression, as though she didn't expect Su Wen, who had always been obedient to her, to actually do this to her.

"Su Wen, if you don't want to do the washing, I can help you. But my hands hurt from writing, so I can't help you today." Sun Yunyun's face was red as she bit her lip and looked at Su Wen with an aggrieved expression.

"Alright! Don't give such a pitiful look, who are you putting this on for? There are no men here, they don't know how to be tender to women." Su Wen casually waved her hand, found a clean and flat stone, placed the clothes on it, and hit it with a mallet.

"Su Wen is right!" Some of the shrewish young wives had long been unable to stand Sun Yunyun's fragile appearance. She was even more hateful than the more educated female youths.
