Chapter 34: Meeting Gift

"Gu Laosan? Why are you here?" Gu Mei exclaimed at Gu Yan.

Gu Yan glanced at her and said nothing.

Wang Jinhuan hadn't expected to see the man's nephew here. He was just a hunter in the mountains. Where did he get the money to buy jewelry here?

Wang Jinhuan has always looked down on these poor relatives of the Gu family, and none of them attended Gu Yan's wedding.

Although Gu Yan didn't want to pay attention to them, he couldn't just turn around and leave when facing his aunt Wang Jinhuan. He controlled his temper and greeted her, "Second Aunt."

"Third brother? Why are you here? Where did you get the money to buy these expensive jewelry? Is this your maid?" Wang Jinhuan looked at them with a frown.

Gu Yan didn't like what Wang Jinhuan said, and didn't answer her, but he still introduced them to the two of them: "Second Aunt, this is my wife Wanqing."

Then he said to Li Wanqing, "Madam, this is Second Aunt."

Li Wanqing bowed and called out, "Second Aunt."

Although I don’t like Wang Jinhuan’s behavior, I still have to be polite.

"Hmm," Wang Jinhuan nodded in a pretentious tone, then continued, "Third sister-in-law, your sister-in-law just took a fancy to your dragonfly hairpin. Since you bought it, just take it out. It will be a gift from you, the sister-in-law, to your sister-in-law."

Li Wanqing had never thought that there were such shameless people in the world. She was stunned for a moment.

Seeing that Li Wanqing didn't say anything, Wang Jinhuan immediately said unhappily, "Why? You don't want to. Third daughter-in-law, this is your fault.

Which sister-in-law doesn't prepare a gift for her husband's family when she enters the house? I won't talk about my uncle and aunt, but your sister-in-law and brother-in-law can't have none, right? "

Gu Mei also said, "Sister-in-law, you can't be stingy. Just give me the hairpin. This way, I won't ask for it in vain. I'll exchange it with you. This hairpin on my head was bought for me by my father in the county last year.

We don't have this style here. You're just a maid, and you've never worn such a beautiful hairpin before. You're really lucky."

Li Wanqing almost laughed out of anger when she saw the tiny hairpin on Gu's forehead.

Just look at the hairpin on her brow. It's an old style, even if you look closely. Maybe it was worn by her mother.

She even said she bought it in the county town? She even wanted to exchange this worthless thing for her new hairpin?

Since they have no shame, she doesn't need to save face for them.

"Oh, where did you get such a thick face? You're asking for a gift right away. When I got married, I didn't see any uncles or aunts. I did have a sister-in-law, but she's my husband's biological sister. Not a cousin.

Speaking of greeting gifts, didn't Second Aunt give me one either? I thought you didn't have that custom here.

"What? Second Aunt wants to make up for the gift?" Li Wanqing didn't give in at all and directly retorted.

"You...how can you talk like that? I'm your second aunt, an elder. Do you have any manners?

Third brother, are you just watching your wife treat the elders like this? "Wang Jinhuan didn't expect that the wife Gu Yan married was so powerful.

She originally thought that the new daughter-in-law was shy and would be embarrassed to refuse her.

I didn't expect him to be so powerful that he actually asked her for a gift when meeting her.

"Second Aunt, isn't it normal to give a gift to the new daughter-in-law? How can you blame my wife for this?" Gu Yan said.

When Wang Jinhuan saw Gu Yan like this, she knew that it was impossible to take advantage of them today.

But she was still unwilling to give in. She said, "I don't believe that a hunter like Gu Yan could afford to spend more than twenty taels of silver to buy jewelry for his wife."

You know, even for her, it would be painful to take out more than twenty taels at once.

"Third brother, if you guys don't respect your elders like this, don't blame me for asking your second uncle to talk to your father.

"Also, where did you get the money to buy jewelry? Did you do anything shameful?" Wang Jinhuan asked.

Gu Yan glanced at the second aunt who didn't wish them well, and explained, "My wife has a dowry."

After saying that, he ignored them and just pulled Li Wanqing away.

Wang Jinhuan saw them leaving like that and followed them out in anger.

Seeing that her mother was about to leave, Gu Mei quickly grabbed her and said, "Mom, hairpin, you haven't bought me a hairpin yet."

"Why buy a hairpin? I don't have any money." Wang Jinhuan said hurriedly and ran out of the store.

Outside, Gu Yan had already helped Li Wanqing onto the mule cart, and then he sat on the cart and left.

Wang Jinhuan watched Gu Yan driving away on the mule cart, which was loaded with things. It seemed that he had really made a fortune.

But Gu Laosan is just a hunter, where did he get the silver?

No, I have to ask the head of the family to go back and ask clearly. If they have a way to make money, they can't leave her family behind.

Thinking of this, Wang Jinhuan no longer cared about her daughter and ran back home.

When Gu Mei saw her mother leaving, she stamped her feet and followed her.

Wang Jinhuan entered her own restaurant. It was called a restaurant, but in fact it was just a small restaurant, and the chef was her father.

There was a waiter in front who collected money. It turned out to be her or her mother, and now it was her husband, Gu Yan's second uncle Gu Chonghai.

"Boss, boss."

It was not dinner time and Gu Chonghai was dozing off in his chair when he was woken up by Wang Jinhuan.

"What are you doing? Why are you so jumpy?" Gu Chonghai said, rubbing his brows.

"Boss, guess who I met just now?" Wang Jinhuan poured himself a glass of water, took a sip and said.

"Who did you see?" Gu Chonghai asked casually.

"I just saw your nephew Gu Yan in the jewelry store. He was buying jewelry there with his maid.

Do you know how much silver they spent on the jewelry? Over twenty taels, a full twenty taels.

Do you think they have become rich? Otherwise, where would they get the money to buy jewelry?"

"Are you talking about Gu Yan? Impossible. Gu Yan just separated from the family, how could he have the money to buy jewelry?" Gu Chonghai asked in disbelief.

"It's Gu Yan. You don't know how outrageous he is. His maidservant and our daughter both fell in love with a dragonfly hairpin.

They didn't know how to give in to their sister and just rushed to buy it.

I thought it wasn't too much for them as brother and sister-in-law to buy a hairpin for their sister. Besides, the maid in Gu Yan's family hasn't been introduced to Gu Mei yet, right?

I just told them to give the hairpin to Gu Mei, but what happened? Gu Yan's maid actually asked me for a meeting gift.

I have never seen such a shameless person. Your nephew is also an ungrateful person who forgets his mother after getting married.

I asked him to take care of his wife, but he actually spoke on his wife's side.

"Master, you have to tell my eldest brother and his wife that this little bastard Gu Yan deserves a lesson. He actually dared to talk back to me, your second aunt." Wang Jinhuan exaggerated and said bad things about Gu Yan and the others.
