Chapter 227 Liu Yuting Gets Married

Chen Zhaodi muttered, "Liu Yuting is not young anymore. Although she found someone from out of town, he has a house and it's not bad. It's much better than finding a chaotic family from Beijing who lives in cramped conditions!"

Now she's suddenly become smarter! Why didn't she think of anything earlier?

Zhou Hongyu retorted, "You know it's not easy to find a partner!"

Chen Zhaodi mumbled, "My daughter is so much better than Liu Yuting. She's in a completely different league. She could have as many good boyfriends as she wanted..."

Zhou Hongyu: "Hehe!"

Chen Zhaodi remained silent, but secretly she still felt that Hua Ying was just too picky; any random partner she found would be infinitely better than the out-of-towner Liu Yuting had found!

Liu Yuting stood outside the door, crying, "Mom, little sister, no matter what you say, I won't agree. I'm asking you right here: will you come to my wedding?"

"I'm not going!"

"roll--"

Liu Yuping took out Liu Yuting's belongings left at home and threw them at Liu Yuting.

"Get out of here! Mom said if you don't listen, take your things and get as far away from this house as possible!"

Liu Yuting left in tears, leaving the neighbors sighing with regret.

Someone advised, "Yuping, go back and tell your mother to know when to stop. Although your second sister looks like she's from out of town, she owns a house, which is good. Buying a house and settling down will make her a Beijing resident in two or three generations. There's no point in fighting for too much!"

Liu Yuping, hands on her hips, retorted rudely, "Who do you think you are! Daring to interfere in our family affairs! Do you think my eldest sister..."

Once divorced, you're no longer a member of the Song family, and no one can bully you at will!

Suddenly, her eyes caught sight of Zhou Hongyu standing in the crowd, and Liu Yuping inexplicably shut her mouth.

"It's none of your business!"

Liu Yuping turned back, and the neighbors standing in the alley were gossiping about the Liu family.

Aunt Cheng said mysteriously, "There's something I've been keeping to myself, but now that the Liu family has gone so far, I have to bring it up!"

"Tell me quickly!"

Aunt Cheng: "Judging from this, the Liu family is not only dissatisfied with the out-of-town son-in-law that Liu Yuting found, but they already had someone in mind. A few days ago, I saw the wife of the shoe factory director having dinner with the Liu family at a restaurant, and the key point is that Liu Yujie was also there!"

"It's the family of the shoe factory manager whose son is over forty years old and has cerebral palsy!"

“Yes!” Aunt Cheng laughed happily: “I think the Liu family wants to sell Liu Yuting for a good price. Liu Yuting is just a bit old, but she’s still presentable. Look, although she’s from out of town, she’s an out-of-towner with a house. Who can compare to her luck!”

The Liu family's wishful thinking backfired, no wonder they completely broke off relations.

The neighbors sighed again.

Liu Yuting has a hard life. Of the four children in her family, she is the only one who went to the countryside and suffered a lot. After returning to the city with great difficulty, she was not welcomed at home and her marriage prospects were restricted. She finally found a good match, but her family did not accept him.

Someone spoke up: "We've practically watched Yuting grow up. How about we each chip in a little money as her dowry when she gets married? I don't think the Liu family cares about any of this!"

"Yes, yes, Yuting has always been a good child. She grew up calling us uncles and aunts. Marriage is the most important thing in a person's life, and we can't let our child suffer..."

So, the neighbors started talking about Liu Yuting's wedding in the alley.

Zhou Hongyu lost interest after that. Before leaving, she told Aunt Cheng to include her in the dowry when adding to Liu Yuting's dowry.

Chen Zhaodi was reluctant to spend money, but she stood next to Zhou Hongyu and hesitantly hinted at something similar.

After saying that, he followed Zhou Hongyu back with a pained expression.

As they returned, they encountered Chang Huaying, who had just finished eating, coming out of her house.

Without thinking, Chen Zhaodi shouted, "Chang Huaying, if you dare disobey me and leave like this, believe me, I won't let you into this house..."

Chang Huaying ran headlong, completely ignoring the threat behind her.

Enraged, Chen Zhaodi grabbed a stick leaning against the wall and threw it, but missed completely!

Chen Zhaodi was about to start cursing when an old woman walked over, muttering curses.

"Red Soldier's wife, why did you throw my cane away! Are you really trying to kill this old woman! Without my cane, I'll be dead!"

The old lady walked with a brisk pace, not looking like someone who couldn't walk without a cane.

Zhou Hongyu shook her head, left Chen Zhaodi to be scolded and just left. She deserved it!

After Chen Zhaodi finished being scolded and went back, Zhou Hongyu also packed up and prepared to go home.

Chen Zhaodi grabbed Zhou Hongyu, preventing her from leaving: "You have to help me persuade Huaying. A woman should find a partner and get married as soon as possible, otherwise, she won't escape being picked over when she gets older..."

Zhou Hongyu pried open her hands: "I don't have that many hobbies. If you like her, go tell her yourself!"

"Hey, Zhou Hongyu..."

Chen Zhaodi called from behind, and Zhou Hongyu led Shuying and Meiying out of the Chang family's house.

The next day, Zhou Hongyu went to the store after get off work to investigate why the sales performance was not improving.

Chen Zhaodi brought up the topic of urging marriage again, and Zhou Hongyu, who was already annoyed by what she was thinking about, immediately gave her a fierce look.

"Inside the shop, instead of doing your job properly, you're busy with your family matters! Chen Zhaodi! Do you want to quit?!"

Zhou Hongyu never showed her any mercy!

Chen Zhaodi's shadow fell over again, and she instantly became serious.

Soon, Zhou Hongyu found the reason why the store's performance was not improving: the Peng family's store next door was too strong, and the presence of a store of similar level seriously diverted customers.

Knowing the reason, she wasn't in such a hurry, after all, the unknown is the most terrifying thing.

Zhou Hongyu asked, "When will Lijuan and the others be free? Are they still handling Aiqiao's business?"

Now that a formidable opponent has emerged, she must try to make changes; otherwise, she will gradually perish.

Aiqiao's high-end apparel business is currently unavailable in the market, and this gap can bring more substantial profits.

and……

Zhou Hongyu looked at the three new employees in the store with a smile. Each one was more beautiful than the last, dressed in high-end clothes. With their rare good looks, she was sure to make a fortune this Spring Festival!

Wu Xiufang came over: "Boss, Mr. Peng from Xinyuan next door wants to see you!"

At this moment, Peng Xiaomei was already standing not far away.

Zhou Hongyu nodded slightly to Peng Xiaomei: "Xiao Peng, it's been a long time!"

"Our store can't open for the time being, so I took some time to go back to my hometown."

Peng Xiaomei walked over and handed over two invitations: "Boss Zhou, these are my brother's and sister-in-law's invitations. Please be sure to come and support us!"
