Rebirth: Solely Cherished by the Devoted Commander

Chapter 102: Chapter 102: Aunt and Niece

"Then you definitely can’t leave! I’m counting on you to take care of your aunt. Why are you leaving now?" Zhao Yingjun raised his voice towards the door of his wife’s bedroom, "You, a young girl, came to seek refuge with us, and now you’re leaving after staying a few days. If people find out, won’t they criticize us? Did your aunt say something? Jinxiu, come out! Did you say something to her?"

Su Miao hurriedly said, "No, Aunt has been very nice to me..."

"Don’t worry about it. I’ll talk to her myself." Zhao Yingjun grabbed her arm and pressed her down on the sofa, then walked toward his wife’s room.

Su Jinxiu, holding her waist, came out. She had actually heard the noises outside for a while. Hearing that Su Miao was leaving made her initially quite happy, but upon realizing Zhao Yingjun was concerned, it affected her profoundly, and she walked out with a stern expression.

"I didn’t dare let her leave; I didn’t even know what was going on here. Su Miao, tell me, how did I offend you to make you say such things in front of your uncle?"

Su Miao stood up and said, "Aunt, it’s not like that. I’m about to start work, and I can’t stay at your place forever. I really didn’t mean it; I just didn’t want to trouble you..."

"Don’t say that. I’ve never disliked you. I have a big belly and can’t go out; I’m counting on you to keep me company." Su Jinxiu held Su Miao’s hand gently and said warmly. In her heart, she cursed, "Wretch, you’re nothing but a fox spirit. If you don’t want trouble, then leave quickly. Now that my husband is back, you’re starting to act? Just a cheap woman who knows how to seduce her own man!"

Su Miao wasn’t naive; she could see her aunt’s hidden animosity. Tears almost came down, from both grievance and anger. How did I offend you? Is it just because Uncle likes me? Everyone in the village says this aunt is lucky, but it doesn’t seem that way.

"Alright, I say you can stay if you stay! Why all the fuss?" Zhao Yingjun frowned, "This is my home. Is having a relative stay here causing you trouble? Jinxiu, you’ll annoy everyone like this, is that what you want? You’re pregnant, so I won’t argue with you. The niece will stay here; don’t say more."
