Chapter 151 Su Chuan Confess
Su Chuan patted Su Chunsen on the shoulder, "Father, it's all in the past. We are no longer part of the Bai family. Whether they live or die has nothing to do with us. The reason Mother and I kept it from you was because we were afraid you would be sad and upset."

After all, the master certainly doesn't want too many people to know about such a shameful affair, and since you've always been by the master's side, any unusual behavior will be noticed.

We were the ones who spread this scandal about the Bai family. Mother said that we are of lowly status and cannot seek justice for ourselves, but we cannot suffer injustice for nothing. Now that the matter has spread, the Bai family's reputation has been affected to some extent.

We don't know, and we don't care, the exact extent of the impact. From this day forward, our grudges with the Bai family are wiped clean and will never be mentioned again.

Tears streamed down Su Chunsen's face as he nodded repeatedly. "Alright! We won't mention it again. I'll talk to your cousin and ask her to find you a good wife so you can live a peaceful life."

Su Chuan lowered his head guiltily and stammered, "Dad, there's something else I'm keeping from you. After my mother found out that the child in Cuilan's belly wasn't mine, she told me to find a wife outside."

Her name was Sun Ying'er. She was also a girl with a tragic fate. She was almost sold to a gambling den by her father to pay off debts. I bought her, and later she became pregnant with my child and was about to give birth.

My uncle came over a while ago, and I asked him to take Ying'er back to the village so I could go back to see her during the Chinese New Year.

Su Chunsen was stunned, frozen in place, unable to recover for a long time.

Madam Wan stepped forward and slapped him on the back. "Stop daydreaming! We'll be able to hold our grandchildren during the New Year. Don't mention Cuilan or Rulan anymore, they're bad luck!"

Su Chunsen suddenly realized what was happening. He wanted to scold his son, but he didn't have the confidence. He was happy, but also quite happy. All sorts of feelings were mixed together, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

However, one thing is certain: someone from their family must return to the village for the Spring Festival this year.

Wan consulted with Ke Yunyun.

Ke Yunyun smiled and said, "Auntie, you can go back for the New Year whenever you want. It's only for a few days, so it won't make a difference."

Madam Wan shook her head vigorously, "What do you mean it won't affect you! You're six months pregnant and can't be without someone by your side. How about this, your eldest uncle and I won't go back this year, but let Su Chuan go back and stay for a few more days, okay?"

Ke Yunyun nodded with a smile, "My cousin can go back for a few days if he wants. Anyway, he mainly goes out to buy things, and you can't buy anything good outside in the dead of winter."

Su Chuan then came in and pondered, "I heard that my cousin's husband is quite capable, able to get fresh live fish even in the dead of winter. Why don't I make a trip to Shenjiazhuang and see if I can bring back some fresh food?"

"What new food is there?" Zhu Yixuan's voice came from outside.

The people in the main room immediately mustered all their energy to go out and greet them.

Ke Yunyun was about to move when Zhu Yixuan stepped inside to stop her, saying, "Just rest, don't make a fuss."

Wan helped Zhu Yixuan take off his outer cloak and explained, "We were just discussing going to the countryside to find some fresh food for Yunyun to change her diet."

It just so happens that Yunyun's cousin-in-law is particularly good at catching fish; perhaps we can buy some live fish from him.

"Want to eat fish?" Zhu Yixuan looked at Ke Yunyun gently.

Ke Yunyun smiled sweetly and said in a soft, sweet voice, "I'm just a little greedy."

Zhu Yixuan immediately looked at Su Chuan and said, "Then go and get some. I'll give you twenty taels of silver. Buy anything that's not commonly seen outside."

Having received Zhu Yixuan's instructions, Su Chuan openly drove the carriage away.

He couldn't wait to rush to Dongmen Village as soon as he left the county town. He hurried and rushed, finally making it into the village before dark.

When Su Chunlin saw him return, he was overjoyed. "Oh! What a coincidence! Your wife just gave birth to a big, healthy boy yesterday, and you're back today! Is there some kind of father-son connection?" Su Chunlin gestured exaggeratedly.

Su Chuan was feeling dizzy and unsteady on his feet, almost tripping and falling flat on his face. Luckily, Su Chunlin grabbed him and said, "Slow down, be careful!"

Su Chuan scratched his head awkwardly, "Uncle, where are Ying'er and her child?"

Su Chunlin led him to the backyard.

The Han family was also hiding in the backyard house. When they heard the commotion, they opened the door and peeked out, and immediately burst out laughing.

Sun Ying'er, who was on the bed, was obviously excited when she heard Su Chuan's voice and struggled to sit up.

Ruan Xiaoyu held the child and comforted her while saying, "Sister-in-law, lie down and don't move."

Su Chuan entered the house and quickly closed the door. He came to Sun Ying'er in a few moments, his eyes brimming with tears of emotion.

This made Sun Ying'er's eyes redden as well.

Han, who was standing nearby, scolded, "You can't shed tears during postpartum confinement! Hold them back right now!"

Then she looked at Su Chuan and asked, "Does Yunyun not need anyone?"

Su Chuan carefully took his son from Ruan Xiaoyu's hands and held him solemnly in his arms before he had the extra mind to answer Han's question.

"My cousin's side isn't really busy. My dad watches the door, my mom is in charge of the kitchen, and Xiao Xi keeps my cousin entertained. I used to run around outside, buying things and stuff, but there are few people outside in the dead of winter, and there's not much to buy, so I'm pretty idle."

I happened to hear that my cousin-in-law could get his hands on good things like live fish, and Young Master Zhu gave me twenty taels to buy them, so I came back for a visit. I never imagined this child would be born at such a convenient time!

Su Chuan became happier and happier as he talked, and gave the child a big kiss.

Mrs. Han was amused and teased, "It shows that the child is smart. He knew his father was coming back early and didn't dare to delay for a moment. You three should have a good talk tonight."

"What you want is simple. Tomorrow, your uncle will take you to Shenjiazhuang. You'll have whatever you need there."

Su Chuan thought Han's words were just empty talk and didn't take them to heart until he saw what Shen Yi had prepared for him. Only then did he lose his composure.

That night.

Su Chuan and his family of three lay in bed, and he took the opportunity to tell them about Cui Lan's affairs.

Sun Ying'er wept with joy, "Husband, does this mean we can be together openly and legitimately?"

Su Chuan shook his head regretfully, "No, I am still a slave and cannot implicate you and the child. Let's arrange it like this for now. This time, I talked things out with my father, and he also secretly told me that he secretly bought land in the village to build a house. Nominally, the house belongs to my uncle, but in reality, it belongs to our family."

If you feel uncomfortable living at your uncle's house after spring, you can move there. I'll come back to see you whenever I have time and give you some money. You don't need to worry about money; just take good care of yourself and the children.

Sun Ying'er nodded obediently, her face beaming with happiness and sweetness.

The next morning, Su Chuan got up early and went to Shenjiazhuang with Su Chunlin.

When they arrived at the Shen family's residence, they found it incredibly lively. Shi Liu had just finished settling the bill with Shen Yi when she turned around and saw Su Chuan, almost dropping her jaw in surprise. "Su Chuan! It's you!"
