Ou Cong is trying to win Jiang Shuqin's affection, but she is testing his sincerity and has given him only a "chance" to pursue her. He Jun also returned and began pursuing Jiang Shuqin, but she made it clear she only saw him as a friend. Ou Cong, realizing his lack of "literary flair" is a disadvantage, enlists the help of Huo Shiwu to propose to Jiang Shuqin. She agrees to be Huo Shiwu's "second aunt" but not Ou Cong's wife, indicating she still needs more convincing.

Our little genius, Huo Shiwu, was a bit confused by Jiang Shuqin's words.

So, Huo Shiwu raised his little head, furrowed his tiny brows, and very seriously asked Jiang Shuqin, "To be an aunt, not the wife of the uncle? What does that mean?"

Not to mention Huo Shiwu, even Ou Cong, who was initially feeling smug and delighted upon hearing Jiang Shuqin say the word "agree," was a bit stunned.

What on earth did Shuqin mean by that?

Ou Cong was bewildered.

Upon seeing this, Jiang Shuqin glanced at Ou Cong nonchalantly, then turned to Huo Shiwu with a slight smile and calmly said, "Yes, Aunt Jiang agreed to be Xiao Shiwu's aunt because Aunt Jiang likes Shiwu."

"But for me to agree to be your uncle's wife, Aunt Jiang also has to like your uncle." Jiang Shuqin deliberately said seriously, "However, whether or not to like your uncle, Aunt Jiang hasn't decided yet."

"This depends on your uncle's efforts." Jiang Shuqin finally smiled at little Shiwu.

Huo Shiwu tilted his little head, thought about this for a long time, and then suddenly said, "Hmm, Shiwu understands, Shiwu will work hard, Aunt Jiang agreed to be an aunt, so uncle also has to work hard to make Aunt Jiang agree to be his wife."

Finally, little Huo Shiwu looked earnestly at his uncle, nodded his tiny head, and said, "Not working hard is not being a good child."

Ou Cong: ...

In short, a wife has to be pursued by oneself, and the trouble one causes oneself, one must endure.

"Shuqin..." Ou Cong smiled ingratiatingly at Jiang Shuqin.

Jiang Shuqin ignored him and directly took Huo Shiwu's hand, saying, "Shiwu, Aunt Jiang will take you to play."

With that, Shuqin took Huo Shiwu away.

Leaving Ou Cong alone at the spot, "all lonely," quite pitiful.

Shortcuts won't work, and Ou Cong was once again plunged into the exceptionally long road of pursuing his wife.

Sometimes women are strange and, at a certain moment, really want to get married.

But when that moment passes, they don't value marriage as much.

Originally, Jiang Shuqin wanted to find someone and get married early, but after several failed matchmaking attempts, combined with Ou Cong's "persistent pestering," Jiang Shuqin suddenly felt that single life was quite carefree.

So, when Jiang Shuqin agreed to be with Ou Cong, it was already a long time later.

And by that time, the reason Jiang Shuqin agreed was because there was a little baby in her belly, and she had no choice but to agree.

No way around it, in this era, being pregnant before marriage, even if Jiang Shuqin herself didn't care, her family would force her to get married.

Then, Comrade Ou Cong finally won his beloved—however, even so, at home, he had no status whatsoever.

Who told him to be so foolish in the first place?

Regarding this, no one within the Ou Family sympathized with him; instead, everyone stood on Jiang Shuqin's side, no matter what the issue was. Whether Ou Cong was right or wrong, the one who got scolded and beaten was always Ou Er.

Heaven's sins can still be forgiven, but one's own sins cannot be survived.

Since the process of pursuing his wife was so tough, at the wedding, Ou Cong couldn't hold back and drank a few too many drinks out of excitement, getting thoroughly drunk.

When they got to the bridal chamber, Ou Cong grabbed Jiang Shuqin's hand, cried uncontrollably, and said, "Shuqin, wife, wife..."

"You are finally my wife!" Ou Er said with red eyes and a red nose, looking tearful.
