Ms. Wei hurriedly arrived at Ye Caiping's door.

Sure enough, I saw several servants handing out candy and coins.

Her expression changed slightly. How could this be? Could it really be...?

Ye Caiping is going to marry Shen Zhiyan and become an official's wife!

And there's also a dowry of tens of thousands of taels!

Good heavens, why does all the good things happen to Ye Caiping!

When Mrs. Wei tried to go in to check, Shanzi and Shizi, who were guarding the gate, quickly stopped her: "Aunt Wei, you can't go in!"

Ms. Wei was taken aback and instantly felt insulted.

The servants here used to call her Second Madam, but now they call her Aunt Wei!

She's not even worthy of being a wife, is she?

She knew what this meant: Ye Caiping didn't acknowledge her as her sister-in-law!

Ms. Wei's eyes immediately welled up with tears of humiliation, her grief and indignation rising within her. She held back her tears, turned around, and ran away crying.

But the lively atmosphere and the villagers' praises behind him continued unabated:

"I received five coins!"

"I have one more coin than you; I have six coins!"

"Mr. Shen is so generous! Cai Ping's family was already rich, and now they're going to be rich again! I wonder how they'll spend those tens of thousands of yuan in betrothal gifts, tsk tsk."

Dowry? Mrs. Wei paused in her steps.

Oh, and there's also tens of thousands of taels of betrothal money! And those cartloads of valuable betrothal gifts!

Thinking of this, Mr. Wei's bad mood improved somewhat, and he even felt a little excited.

Although Ye Caiping no longer acknowledges her as her sister-in-law, she does acknowledge the head of the household!

Her family should also get a share of the betrothal money!

Thinking about it, she wasn't jealous of the extra dowry and gifts. Instead, she stopped and listened to the people around her praising her.

Just then, seeing Tie Niu's wife and Zhu Zi's wife coming out, Wei Shi quickly went up to them with a smile: "Tie Niu's wife, it's very lively inside!"

Tie Niu's wife looked at Wei Shi with a somewhat cold expression: "Yes, why are you asking this?"

Feeling wronged, Madam Wei gritted her teeth and said, "My sister-in-law is getting married, can't I even show some concern?"

Tie Niu's wife was taken aback. Although she disliked what Wei had done in the past, she felt a little sorry for her when she thought that everyone in the Ye family was having a good time inside while Wei was excluded and couldn't even enter the house.

Her tone softened a bit: "Oh, of course."

"A lot of people are inside?" Mrs. Wei asked urgently.

"Yes, the Shen family sent more than thirty servants! Luckily, Caiping's courtyard is big enough, otherwise there wouldn't even be room to step."

Zhu Zi's wife laughed and said, "It's mainly because the dowry was so big that it filled the entire courtyard. The servants could only stand under the corridor, hahaha!"

"Mr. Shen is so generous! I've never seen so many betrothal gifts before. Even the richest man in our county, Master Chen, can't compare. Those vases, those pearls... tsk tsk tsk! And the betrothal money comes in chests, all of it is gold!"

"I heard that later on, dozens of constables will be stationed at her house to guard it, supposedly to prevent theft!"

As Mrs. Wei listened, her eyes brightened, and her heart pounded. It really was tens of thousands in betrothal gifts and dowry! They said it was 100,000!

Traditionally, a daughter's dowry is given to her brothers and parents. Even if the mother-in-law dotes on her sister-in-law, the dowry is at most 20,000 yuan!

If his family gets half of the remaining 80,000, they'll still have 40,000!

With this 40,000, her family is now among the wealthiest!

Mrs. Wei was so excited that her mouth was almost stretched to her ears.

Tie Niu's wife and Zhu Zi's wife, who had been chatting excitedly, stopped talking and looked at her: "Er Quan's wife, what are you laughing at?"

"Uh...no...I'm just happy for Caiping! Hahaha, it's getting late, I'm going home now." With that, she hurried home.

Watching her retreating figure, Tie Niu's wife pouted and said, "I... I see now! She's not concerned about Cai Ping at all."

Zhu Zi's wife: "Trying to take advantage!"

......

Lijia Village.

As the weather turned cold, Granny Li started sunbathing at the doorway.

Since Li Jiaojiao left, Granny Li has sold off her servants in order to save money.

All the dirty and hard work was pushed onto Zhang Shuiniang, and she would be beaten if she didn't work.

Granny Li is back to living a good life where she doesn't have to work.

"Zhiyuan's mother!" At this moment, Gouwa's mother walked over, panting. "Why are you still so leisurely?"

"What's wrong?" Granny Li looked at her, puzzled.

"Did you see that convoy just now?"

"Hmm, and then what?"

"I just visited relatives in Wangjia Village and saw that convoy of cars enter Qinghe Village! Think about it, which girl in Qinghe Village can afford such a large dowry? It must be the richest family!"

"It's my home!" Granny Li jumped up. In her mind, Ye Caiping's home was her home.

Gouwa's mother said, "That's right, Ye Caiping must have promised Zhaodi to someone else. This caravan is probably going to Ye Caiping's house to present the betrothal gift."

"What? My granddaughter is getting married?" Granny Li was furious. "This is outrageous! She's my granddaughter, and you've already promised her off to someone without even telling us!"

As she spoke, Granny Li rushed into the house and went to Li Zhiyuan's room.

"Zhiyuan, get up! Get up now!"

Li Zhiyuan was lying in bed sleeping when he was suddenly pulled awake by his mother, who roared, "What's all the noise about? Can't a person get any sleep?"

"Sleep, sleep, sleep! Get up! Ye Caiping has actually promised Zhaodi off, and now her in-laws have come to Qinghe Village to present the betrothal gifts!"

"What?" Li Zhiyuan's expression changed: "You, Ye Caiping... Wait, I understand! Good, good, very good, I didn't expect her to have this trick up her sleeve!"

What trick?

"Mother, you still don't understand! She's really going after us! When she saw that I wouldn't come to her door and apologize, she betrothed Zhaodi to someone else, forcing me to come to her door! Humph, I've said it before, I, Li Zhiyuan, have never regretted divorcing her! You think I'll bow my head and apologize? Dream on!"

Granny Li nodded: "Then... let's go! Zhiyuan, listen to me, this doesn't mean you have to bow down to her, it just means... Zhaodi is your daughter!"

"Look at all this betrothal gifts, I wonder who they've promised Zhaodi to."

Li Zhiyuan's heart skipped a beat, and he snorted, "She must have been promised to some scoundrel. She's still my own daughter, Li Zhiyuan's biological daughter. Fine, I'll go! I'm not bowing down to her, I'm going to demand an explanation!"

After saying this, Li Zhiyuan was overjoyed. He quickly got up, put on his most presentable set of silk clothes, and even shaved his beard, making himself look clean and tidy.

Then he went out with Granny Li.
