Chapter 694 The Zhao Family is Not Calm Anymore
Because Pang Xiujuan and Ye Yunliang had caused a quarrel that made Zhao Baofeng's family unhappy, Wang Guilan accompanied them during dinner to save Zhao Baofeng's face.
After dinner, he invited them to the main table and talked to them politely.
After all, Wang Guilan is the grandmother of a successful scholar, so it is not easy for her to achieve this.
After beating Pang Xiujuan, Li Lancao felt a little regretful. She was the biological mother of the Juren. If the matter was really investigated, she would end up in jail.
She was worried and thought about it for a long time, but later, when she saw that Wang Guilan was so polite, she slowly let go of her worries.
After dinner, all the other guests left, except Zhao Baofeng's family members.
Wang Guilan replaced the teapot with a pot of fine tea and brought out two plates of expensive snacks. She said to Liu Datao, "My dear relatives, we don't usually have time to sit here and chat. It's a good opportunity for us to have a good chat during Suyun's wedding."
Liu Datao was very happy to receive the courtesy from his in-laws, and said, "My in-laws, you are so polite."
"I'm telling you, my dearest, my eldest daughter-in-law is the one I love the most. You've raised this daughter so well, I can't thank you enough!"
"My in-laws are so kind. It's mainly because my Baofeng is so lucky. Among all the children in my family, she is the only one who lives a good life.
She is truly blessed.”
Wang Guilan was delighted after hearing what Liu Datao said, "My dear, after all, it's the eldest daughter-in-law who knows how to handle things.
When preparing a dowry for Suyun, he also treated her fairly.
Not only did she buy jewelry for her own daughter-in-law, she also treated her niece-in-law equally."
Liu Datao didn't know that Wang Guilan was talking about the gold bracelet, but she felt proud to hear Wang Guilan praising her daughter. "My second daughter has always been like this since she was a child. She would rather suffer a little loss herself than let those around her feel sad."
Li Lancao, who was listening in on the side, felt uncomfortable whenever she heard about Sulan's dowry.
You know, if Zhao Baofeng had agreed to the marriage between Suyun and her son at that time, wouldn't the mountain of dowry have all belonged to her family?
Zhao Baofeng's second sister-in-law Liu Cuiyu noticed Li Lancao's discomfort. She usually had some complaints about Li Lancao, so she deliberately said to Wang Guilan, "Aunt, my mother is right. I heard my head of the family say that my second sister was especially good to him before she got married.
Those who stutter don’t want to eat it themselves, so they save it and share it with everyone.”
Wang Guilan talked with the Zhao family for a long time and said she was happy. She said to Liu Cuiyu, "My niece, let me tell you, this jewelry is not for eating. Each of you will get a big gold bracelet.
Including her daughter-in-law who has not yet married into the family, and her niece-in-law, that’s four big gold bracelets!
Tell me how much silver this is worth!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the room gasped.
Liu Datao forced a smile and said, "My second daughter is really generous."
But in his heart he thought that the Ye family was indeed different from them.
Her second daughter's life is probably better than that of the average rich family in the town!
Otherwise, how could he buy four big gold bracelets at once? That’s not all, there’s also the dowry for Suyun. When you calculate it this way, my goodness, how much silver would that cost!
Li Lancao almost fainted.
She always thought that these should have belonged to her.
Liu Cuiyu thought, my second sister’s family is really rich, I have to have a good relationship with her in the future.
The little bit that was exposed between the second sister's fingers was enough for the whole family to chew.
When Wang Guilan saw the expressions of the Zhao family, her heart skipped a beat, thinking that she had said the wrong thing.
Oh, the eldest daughter-in-law has repeatedly warned her not to tell the truth to the Zhao family. What should she do?
She smiled awkwardly, "Let's have some tea. This tea was brought by my grandson in Qingfeng City. Please enjoy it!"
Liu Datou and the others had no appetite for tea and stood up to leave.
Wang Guilan did not force the person to stay. She just said a few polite words and sent the person out of the house.
As soon as the Zhao family left Yejia Village, they all became uneasy.
Li Lancao was the worst. "Dad, Mom, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but when I asked Suyun to marry our Feng'er, if you had been a little more forceful, wouldn't all of Suyun's dowry have been ours?"
Liu Datao glared at Li Lancao and said, "If you were a little more diligent, your second sister might have asked Yao Yun to marry you."
Zhao Baofeng's father, Zhao Fugui, shouted, "Shut up!"
Liu Datao and Li Lancao glared at each other in dissatisfaction.
Liu Cuiyu secretly cursed Li Lancao for being stupid. Suyun was getting married tomorrow. What was the point of bringing up these trivial matters? You might as well think about something practical.
She looked at Zhao Fugui with a smile, "Dad, my second sister's family is living a good life, we should be happy for her!"
Zhao Fugui was very pleased to hear Liu Cuiyu's words. To be honest, among the two daughters-in-law, he liked Liu Cuiyu more than Li Lancao.
He turned around and glanced at Liu Cuiyu, and said kindly, "Second daughter-in-law, tell me, how should we get along with your second sister in the future?"
Liu Cuiyu already had her own plan in mind, but she pretended to think. After the group walked a short distance, she said cautiously, "Dad, I'm not saying it well. If you think it's not feasible, just listen to it for fun!"
Zhao Fugui encouraged Liu Cuiyu, "It's okay, just talk, we are all listening!
Even if it’s not right, no one will blame you.”
"Well, let me tell you. Dad, if my second sister's family lives a good life, it will only benefit our family.
At lunch, the person sitting next to me was my second brother-in-law’s uncle’s sister-in-law. I heard everyone call her Jinhua.
I heard from Jinhua that my second brother-in-law's nephew, who is a juren, is very capable.
The family owns several shops and seems to have business partnerships with some royal merchants."
"My goodness, is the Ye family really that powerful now?"
Liu Cuiyu nodded affirmatively, "I heard from Jinhua that they all work in the village workshops and can earn at least one or two taels of silver a month.
It's not surprising that Dad, Mom, and Second Sister can buy four big gold bracelets at once.
Because while I was eating, I saw many women in Yejia Village wearing gold and silver.
Liu Cuiyu caught Zhao Fugui's eye, and Li Lancao was very angry, "Second brother, what do you want to say? Just say it quickly.
What are other women doing wearing gold and silver?
If you don’t have this blessing, don’t envy others.”
Liu Cuiyu rolled her eyes and secretly glared at Li Lancao, "Who said I don't have this blessing? As long as my second sister can support our family, our lives will definitely get better and better."
Zhao Fugui glanced at Li Lancao impatiently, "Old man, could you please stop interrupting and let the second son's wife finish.
Second son's wife, please continue, we are listening!
