"Sister-in-law Wang, why is Yu Dazhu's house so lively?"

They even set off big firecrackers! Is there some happy occasion in their family again?

When Li Hehua returned from the fields, she saw many firecrackers scattered all over the ground in front of the Yu family's main house.

And you can tell it was freshly made.

"Sanzhu's wife, don't you know?"

Your older brother and sister-in-law, no…

"They're no longer the eldest brother and sister-in-law of your third branch." Sister-in-law Wang realized she had misspoke and immediately corrected herself, "Dazhu's daughter, Xiangcao, got engaged today."

I heard they gave a dowry of over six hundred yuan, which is unprecedented in our village!

From now on, Dazhu and his wife can just wait to enjoy their retirement.

"Sister-in-law Wang, are you sure you're not mistaken? Xiangcao from Dazhu's family, that divorced woman, the one who got dumped, received a dowry of over six hundred yuan?"

Impossible. What idiot would be willing to pay such a large dowry for a secondhand item?

Absolutely impossible!

Li Hehua shook her head, indicating that she did not believe it.

"Li Hehua, why does what you're saying sound so sour and sarcastic?"

How could it be impossible?

Several people in the village saw the family come to Dazhu's house to propose marriage, and they even sent a matchmaker, showing that they took it very seriously.

You're just jealous of how lucky Dazhu and his wife are!

Sister-in-law Wang glanced at Li Hehua, whose eyes were full of jealousy and anger, and thought to herself that if they hadn't courted death, they could still rely on the eldest son's family to get a bowl of soup. Now that they've become enemies, they can't even get a bowl of soup.

"Sister-in-law Li, you must be seeing things, or someone else must be seeing things."

Think about it, a young, unmarried woman wouldn't possibly give more than 600 yuan as a bride price; 200 or 300 yuan would be considered quite good.

So that's impossible; they're not stupid.

Unless the man is an old man, old enough to be her father, and he marries her only to continue the family line.

Or perhaps she's mentally challenged or disabled, like blind or lame. In that case, I might still believe that someone would be willing to give such a large dowry for a divorced woman.

Li Hehua thought it must be like this, it must be like this.

Forget it!

Li Hehua, how could you be so malicious, cursing such fragrant herbs?

Vanilla used to be your niece, how can you talk like that?

Do those deformed fruits and jujubes you mentioned deserve to be called herbs?

Let me tell you, Xiangcao is dating someone she met herself. He's from the county town, and he's incredibly handsome, just like a rich young master in a play.

He was the manager of the Hongqi Textile Factory, a large state-owned factory with several thousand employees!

Wang's sister-in-law secretly mocked Li Hehua with displeasure.

"Sister-in-law Wang, could it be that you're making up these things to curry favor with Yu Dazhu's family now that they've become successful?"

"Is it just to suck up to them so you can make money off them?"

Those damned Yu brothers, they buy crayfish from everyone in the village, except for the third branch of the family.

They even took the crayfish from the second wife's house.

She was filled with resentment, but there was nothing she could do.

She also had to take care of that old hag Wang. She had originally thought she could sell some crayfish and have some money to spend, because that old hag rarely gave her any money.

Now her family avoids her, thinking she's useless and a disgrace.

So now her family members no longer help her.

"You... Li Hehua, are you crazy?"

Like a mad dog, it bites anyone it catches.

Everyone in the village praises Dazhu's family now. They not only make money themselves, but also help the villagers make money.

We just like to flatter them, so what?

If you third branch of the family are so capable, you should also lead us all to make money...

If you can do that too, we'll flatter you too.

Bah!

What kind of behavior is that!

The young lady Xiangcao was wasted by the Wang family and married off to such a beast.

Now that she has her family's protection and is capable and hardworking, what's so strange about her marrying into a good family?

You're just being a sour grapes.

Let me tell you, the one who married Xiangcao was Manager Jiang. Now, what else do you have to believe?

You should watch your mouth in the future and learn to be a decent human being!

When Sister Wang heard Li Hehua's words, she got angry and started saying unpleasant things.

"Sister-in-law Wang, how could such an outstanding man as Manager Jiang marry a used woman like Xiangcao? Do you think it's possible?"

If your son were like Manager Jiang, would you, as his parents, agree to him marrying a divorced woman, especially a country girl?

When Li Hehua asked her that question, Sister Wang was stunned and didn't say anything.

When Li Hehua saw that Sister Wang was silent, she knew that the other woman thought the same thing.

So he continued, "Actually, you've all been fooled by appearances."

This was all orchestrated by Dazhu and his wife, who were concerned about saving face, by deliberately hiring someone to put on a show.

I heard that Yu's second son is selling clothes on the street recently. I guess he took Xiangcao over to help him, and then said that Xiangcao got married.

To avoid being gossiped about at home and losing face for their family.

"Li Hehua, don't talk nonsense. Xiangcao and the other person got engaged today. It's absolutely true."

But this has nothing to do with you, so don't worry about it.

Hurry back and take care of Wang, who is paralyzed in bed!

"Hurry up and leave, or you'll be in trouble when Dazhu's two sons come out."

After saying that, Sister Wang shook her head and turned to leave.

"Pah!"

What a bully who relies on his master's power!

She's like a worn-out shoe, a secondhand item, yet she doesn't deserve such a good man.

I think that guy surnamed Jiang is blind. He has so many virgins to choose over a used woman.

She's just a country girl; she's utterly foolish.

Li Hehua spat on the ground and then stomped on the firecrackers.

Before he could even lift his foot to leave, he was slapped hard twice.

slap slap...

Li Hehua looked at the two people in front of her in disbelief.

How unlucky I am to run into these two people.

Could it be that Yu Xiangcao and Jiang Haiyang just overheard what she said?

However, Li Hehua quickly regained her composure and immediately questioned, "Jiang Haiyang, what right did you have to hit me?"

Jiang Haiyang waved his hand dismissively, but his tone was undeniably serious, “Li Hehua, because you deserve a beating.”

I, Jiang Haiyang, don't usually hit women, but since you used such filthy words to insult my wife, I have no choice but to teach you a lesson!

Li Hehua involuntarily took two steps back, thinking to herself: So they really did hear what I said just now.
