When Ye Caiping opened her eyes, she was a divorced woman cast out of her husband's home, with her sister-in-law sharpening her knife at her. It's not that the sister-in-law wouldn't to...
Ye Peng looked unwell.
Especially after Ye Jin'er sat down, she didn't look in his direction at all, and kept chatting and laughing with Xiao Yan and Ye Caiping.
It's as if she thinks I'm invisible!
Wei Xiaojuan knew what had happened between Ye Jinhe and Ye Peng.
She didn't care at first; she married into the family to live a better life.
During this time, Ye Peng doted on her.
She began to care, and even considered competing with Ye Jin'er.
I dressed up so elaborately today to outshine Ye Jin'er.
Even if Ye Jin'er is rich, what good is it if she doesn't have her husband's affection?
How can a woman live without a man's pampering? She can't enjoy the kind of comfort that comes with a man's pampering.
At least in terms of complexion and energy, I will definitely have the upper hand over the other party.
Who would have thought...
Even though Wei Xiaojuan had no sense of aesthetics, she was still stunned by Ye Jin'er's appearance.
She's so good-looking...
Moreover, they were full of energy.
Even the way she walks is different from hers. Not slow, but... well, I can't quite put my finger on it.
Wei Xiaojuan pouted and whispered, "She looks so plain, but her clothes look so expensive, I wonder how much they cost. She's also wearing a big gold necklace. And her earrings are precious pearls too! I don't have any gold or pearls."
If she had this outfit, she could look like that too.
Thinking this, Wei Xiaojuan quickly took Ye Peng's hand: "Husband~~~"
He used the same sweet, coquettish tone he used in bed.
Ye Peng shuddered. The voice that used to sound so pleasant now made him feel a little embarrassed.
Looking back at Wei Xiaojuan, I just thought she was dressed in a wealthy manner, but now, for some reason, I feel that she is like a poor, scrawny girl who desperately tries to appear noble by hanging things on herself, but in the end, she just looks like a clown.
Ye Jin'er is like a rich young lady, while Wei Xiaojuan is like a maid.
She was still a maid pretending to be a young lady.
Ye Peng felt very unbalanced and somewhat ashamed, and wanted to stay away from Wei Xiaojuan.
"Husband~~~" Wei Xiaojuan got a little angry when he ignored her, and reached out to pinch the inside of his thigh.
Ye Peng turned around and saw Wei Xiaojuan pouting: "I want a gold necklace too! Buy it for me!"
Ye Peng's face turned ashen. Not wanting to argue with her, he lowered his voice and said, "I'll buy it later!"
After saying that, he reached out and pulled her hand away.
He had long since grown tired of Wei Xiaojuan, and now, compared to Ye Jin'er, he felt ashamed, embarrassed, and resentful, but mostly he felt humiliated.
When Wei Xiaojuan saw Ye Peng push her hand away, she felt a pang of grievance.
Finally, the dishes arrived.
Since Uncle Ye started making money, he has become very generous. This banquet is almost identical to the scholar's banquet at Ye Daquan's house, consisting entirely of large meat dishes.
The villagers' eyes lit up, and they couldn't help but think of the 280 cash per seat from the Wei family.
Wei's dead memories resurfaced, and her face paled.
When Wei Xiaojuan saw the dishes, her eyes lit up. Everyone else started eating, but she didn't move: "Husband~~ I want to eat that pig's trotter."
As he spoke, he gestured with his chin toward the plate of pig's trotters.
She could clearly pick it up herself, but she just kept yelling like she didn't have hands.
The sound wasn't loud, but it silenced the tables around her, and they all stared at her.
Ye Caiping almost dropped the dishes in her hands onto the table.
Ye Daquan almost choked on a meatball.
Ye Jin'er took a light breath, and this time, she finally looked towards Ye Peng.
Just moments ago, Ye Peng had been hoping that Ye Jin'er would look over, but now he felt a sense of shame and didn't want her to look at him.
After Wei Xiaojuan finished speaking, she pouted and glanced at Ye Jin'er.
So what if she's rich and beautiful? Her partner isn't like her, with a doting husband!
Seeing that Ye Peng didn't move, Wei Xiaojuan pouted even more: "Husband~~"
Ye Peng's face stiffened, and despite feeling embarrassed, he picked up a pig's trotter for her.
Wei Xiaojuan was secretly pleased. "You all see that, don't you? She's favored by her husband!"
She was a pampered young mistress whom her husband cherished and protected!
After finishing her meal, she said, "My dear husband, I want to eat that fish. I only want the boneless belly part; I won't eat any other parts."
Ye Peng was extremely ashamed and wanted to throw his chopsticks down.
Originally, he thought that by spoiling Wei Xiaojuan, he could outdo Ye Jin'er and make her regret it.
But compared to Ye Jin'er today, Wei Xiaojuan is far inferior.
Wouldn't it seem cheap to pamper a woman who is not as good as Ye Jin'er?
These past few days, he had already grown tired of Wei Xiaojuan, and he was also getting impatient with all the work he was doing.
He then became somewhat annoyed: "You pick it up yourself!"
Wei Xiaojuan was stunned and looked at him in disbelief.
I used to always serve her food, and I promised to spoil her.
If we don't pamper her in front of so many people, wouldn't that be a slap in her face?
Madam Wei's face darkened: "Peng'er, what are you doing? Hurry up and serve Xiao Juan some food!" Her expression was threatening; did she want Ye Jin'er to regret this?
Ye Peng gritted her teeth. Yes, she had to serve Xiao Juan some food!
Pamper her!
No matter what Xiao Juan is like, she's his wife, so he'll favor her!
So what if Xiao Juan isn't as pretty as Ye Jin'er? It's precisely because of that that he wants to spoil her even more! He wants to show Ye Jin'er that even someone like Wei Xiao Juan, who married him, can live such a good life.
If Ye Jin'er were to marry, she would be even more favored.
Ye Jin'er missed out!
Ye Peng quickly placed a piece of fish belly on Wei Xiaojuan's plate: "I just... got bitten by an ant, that's why my voice was a little loud. Here, have some fish belly, it's your favorite. I remember!"
Wei Xiaojuan's mood finally turned around, and she said with a smug look, "I knew my husband would spoil me!"
Grandma Ye and her husband, along with Ye Daquan's family: "..." Madam Wei covered her mouth: "Hehehe, Xiaojuan is truly blessed to have married my Peng'er!"
The villagers fell silent: "..."
What's going on here? Ye Peng and Wei Xiaojuan were the ones who did this, so why are the audience members so embarrassed?
What to do? Everyone's wearing shoes, otherwise their toes would dig a yard out of the ground! It's only bigger than Ye Youliang's house, not smaller!
Then Ye Peng put chicken legs on Wei Xiaojuan's plate! And duck legs too...
But Ye Jin'er didn't even glance at him, as if she didn't care about them at all.
This fueled Ye Peng's resentment, and waves of bitterness welled up inside him.
Furthermore, the way people looked at them made him feel incredibly embarrassed!
Ye Erquan finally lost his temper: "Xiao Juan, don't you have hands?"
Wei Xiaojuan's face stiffened: "Father... my husband just dotes on me... he can't bear to let me do it."
"Would it kill you to eat with your hands?"
No, it won't happen.
"If you don't know how, then pick up the food yourself! Otherwise, people will think my daughter-in-law is disabled!"
Wei Xiaojuan looked at Ye Peng with red eyes, feeling wronged.
Ye Peng had long wanted to give up, feeling ashamed, but now that he finally had a way out, he gritted his teeth and said, "Eat properly."
