Chapter 1599 Meng Han Takes Her to Eavesdrop

Taking advantage of Meng Han's movement, Shu Yu got up and left the dining table, hurrying towards the front hall.

"Where are you taking me?" Shu Yu asked, rubbing her forehead as she saw the woman slow her pace and sneak around in the front hall.

Meng Han shushed her, "Sister Shuyu, someone is talking badly about you. I'll take you to hear it."

Shu Yu's lips twitched, and she was pulled down to squat down without being allowed to say a word.

She looked closely and realized that they were huddled under the window of Orchid's boudoir.

Shu Yu couldn't help but facepalm. "There are so many guests coming and going at my uncle's house today. If we hide here, we'll be seen and discovered in no time."

Meng Han thought it made sense, so she asked Ying Xi to keep watch.

Shu Yu, "..."

Before she could say anything more, voices came from inside Lan Hua's room, "Lan Hua, don't take what I'm saying lightly. Your cousin is just here to show off. Look at how she's acting since she arrived. Everyone's fawning over her and talking to her like that. You're the new bride, and she's stealing the spotlight. Isn't she just trying to ruin things?"

Meng Han whispered to Shu Yu, "This person is Lan Hua's friend. I've inquired about it. Back in the village, she and Lan Hua were the best of friends."

Meng Han came here to join in the fun as Lan Hua's good friend. Although she hadn't been here long, she and Lan Hua had a good relationship.

Everyone else went to eat, but she's still in the room with Lan Hua.

Of course, besides the two of them, there was also this close friend named Xu Cai.

Xu Cai had just made an excuse to send Meng Han away. Meng Han was smart; she didn't like Xu Cai, so she walked slowly and even quietly stood under the windowsill for a while.

Then she heard her speak of Shu Yu in a sarcastic tone, and without saying a word, she ran to the backyard and pulled Shu Yu over.

Shu Yu knew Xu Cai, a girl who, like Lan Hua, loved to dress up, but whose family couldn't afford it.

Last time, when Lan Hua went to sell her ribbons in the peach blossom forest, she was with Xu Cai. As a result, Lan Hua encountered Lu Sanzhu, who was blocked in the water and couldn't get out.

"Lanhua, I'm doing this for your own good. You should stay away from your cousin from now on. You may treat her like a sister, but she may not treat you like a younger sister. Look at what kind of dowry she gave you? Just a set of jewelry. I heard that when your older brother got married, she also gave your sister-in-law a set of jewelry. Your sister-in-law is an outsider, and she was so generous. But you? You're her sister, and she doesn't even put in the effort to give you the exact same thing."

“I heard that she gave Daya a shop, twenty acres of farmland, and other valuables. As sisters, you only gave her this much; it’s really not fair. Look at the prizes she prepared for those people’s raffles—gold hairpins—your wedding is so stingy.”

Meng Han was filled with righteous indignation, "What kind of things is she saying, she..."

Before she could finish speaking, Lan Hua's cold voice came from inside the room, "Have you said enough?"

"orchid……"

"Go away, I'll pretend you're not my friend anymore."

Xu Cai was shocked. "What do you mean? I'm doing this for your own good."

"If you're doing this for my own good, then why don't you treat me like my sister Ayu did and give me a set of jewelry? You only tied two ribbons for me, and you still have the nerve to complain about the jewelry? How dare you?"

Xu Cai was so angry she almost fell over. "Lu Lanhua, you don't appreciate kindness."
