Weng Khim trouble has now ended but a new problem arises

BL is pregnant before marriage

ME nor TSU did blame her as they were scared the neighbor would hear them and bring more shame

BL and TSU talked

The boy who got BL pregnant is Surasak

Surasak could not yet afford to marry BL unfortunately

Surasak is stingy

AB learned of the news from MC

AB suggested the Surasak and BL to marry and get over with it quickly

and so the wedding is done

it was an all Chinese wedding with 50 guest and Surasak had no bride gift for BL

TSU spend 30 thousand baht on BL wedding and bought a house for them

The food that Surasak agree to provide on the wedding day was horrendous

CK learned of the news and was very angry and scold BL

CK told her sis that living with another family (her husband and mother in law) would be hard but BL said its not gonna be that bad

However, not long BL comes complaining about how dirty her mother in law is and how hard it is living with her stingy husband and dirty mother in law

TSU is looking forward to being a grandpa altho he wishes the child to be of Rose and not BL

he hopes WK will be cured soon
