Yin Meiyue stood up, pointed at Lin Wanwan, and yelled, "What nonsense are you spouting?"
Zhao Meiling tugged at her daughter's clothes, signaling her to stop throwing a tantrum and sit down to talk.
Seeing her sit down and adjust her exquisite shawl, Zhao Meiling slowly began to speak.
"Lu Feng, is this the wife you carefully selected? She seems to come from a humble family and doesn't know any manners. She throws tantrums even when the elders are still here."
Hearing her sarcastic tone, He Yumei plopped down on the sofa. "Who do you think you are? Even the proper mother-in-law hasn't said a word. Who do you think you are?"
Lin Wanwan relaxed considerably when she saw her mother speak, and stuffed Tuanzi into Lin Xiaohai's arms, asking him to take the three children out to play.
Seeing Lin Xiaohai leave reluctantly, he was about to sit down next to He Yumei.
Song Lanzhi waved to her, then turned her head and said to Yin Meiyue expressionlessly, "Make way."
Lin Wanwan almost couldn't help but laugh.
Seeing Yin Meiyue awkwardly move aside, looking as if she had suffered a great injustice, Lin Wanwan felt incredibly happy at that moment.
Lu Feng and Lin Jianbang naturally sat down next to He Yumei.
Seeing their posture, Zhao Meiling knew that the Lu family wouldn't give them that kind of face, so she composed herself.
She turned to Song Lanzhi with a smile and said, "Good sister, I'm here today to deliver wedding invitations. Please do me the honor of coming. It's Meiyue's wedding, you should at least come. After all, she's your niece."
Song Lanzhi didn't say anything, took a sip of tea, and then handed Lin Wanwan a pastry, asking her, "Are you hungry? Do you want the kitchen to make something to eat?"
Lin Wanwan sensed that Zhao Meiling's expression was about to give way, as if she was looking forward to a good show.
"No need, this will be fine for me."
Song Lanzhi still asked the aunt to bring over the tangerine peel and red bean paste. "I asked the aunt to make this according to the method you taught me before. Try it and see if it's delicious?"
Lin Wanwan took a small sip, nodded with a smile, and said, "It's delicious, thank you, Mom."
Song Lanzhi smiled, turned to look at Zhao Meiling, and said slowly, "I won't go. Although our family is not as prestigious as yours, we still have our pride."
Lin Wanwan looked left and right, blinking as if there was a story behind it.
"I haven't been feeling well since I came back from the Northwest. I've been staying home and trying to get better so I can take care of my grandchildren more in the future," she said, touching Lin Wanwan's belly.
"But the news is still out there. Your daughter and a man were caught red-handed doing something in the dilapidated temple. The news has spread throughout the alley. You don't think I don't know, do you?"
Song Lanzhi took a sip of tea. "I am old and don't like to go out, but I'm not stupid."
Seeing Zhao Meiling's face gradually turn pale, Song Lanzhi didn't want to say anything too harsh.
“Although our family isn’t as prestigious as yours, we still have our pride. I won’t be attending the wedding,” she said, turning to Lin Wanwan. “Go help Mom with that thing. There’s a wooden box on the small round table in my room. Could you bring it over for me?”
Lin Wanwan immediately ran to the room to get it and then handed it to Song Lanzhi.
When Song Lanzhi opened the box, Yin Meiyue's eyes lit up, and even Zhao Meiling, who had been pale, looked a little excited.
Song Lanzhi glanced at their expressions, closed the box, and said with a smile, "You're getting senile. This is for my daughter," before placing it in Lin Wanwan's arms.
“Here you go. Mom said she was going to give you something good. I’ll go get it myself,” she said, then stood up and went into the room.
Lin Wanwan naturally noticed their expressions, raised an eyebrow, and opened the box.
"Wow, why did Mom give me such valuable things?"
Song Lanzhi came out, sat down, and said, "Of course, I'll leave my things to you."
He handed the small wooden box to Zhao Meiling, saying, "We've known each other for a while, so consider this a dowry for your daughter. I can't give you more; it's all for my daughter."
Lin Wanwan couldn't help but smile, feeling incredibly refreshed.
Zhao Meiling took the box, opened it, and found a pair of jade earrings inside.
Song Lanzhi said frankly, "My family is just a small household, not comparable to yours. This is already a very precious thing to me."
Zhao Meiling took a deep breath, stood up and said, "Then I'll thank you on Meiyue's behalf. We're having a small wedding, so if you're not available, that's fine. I won't bother you any longer; I have a lot of things to do at home."
Song Lanzhi didn't even get up, and slowly said, "Then I won't see you off. My mother-in-law is here, and there are other guests at home. They came over to help me greet them. Please make yourselves at home."
As soon as the person left, Lin Wanwan immediately hugged her arm and gave her a thumbs up, "Mom, you're amazing."
After saying that, he held up the box and asked, "Are you really giving it to me?"
Song Lanzhi said irritably, "If you don't want it, give it back to me. I'm not that old yet, I can still wear some."
Lin Wanwan immediately hugged the box tightly, "I want it, I want it all."
He Yumei couldn't bear to look at her. "How can you be so greedy? Get over here. I have something to talk to your mother-in-law about."
Lin Wanwan quickly moved aside, "What did you say? Is it gossip about Yin Meiyue? What happened to her? Was she caught having sex with a guy in a dilapidated temple? Who is the guy?"
Lin Jianbang choked on his tea and coughed incessantly. He sternly scolded her, "What nonsense are you spouting, child?"
He Yumei poked her forehead and said, "If you keep talking nonsense, I'll hit you."
Lin Wanwan stretched out her belly, pointed to it, and said, "Hit him, hit him."
He Yumei was so angry that she slapped her arm.
Lin Wanwan stood up abruptly and cried out in pain, "Mom!! Why did you hit me so hard? My skin is all red."
