Mainly from this perspective, it seems that she is really helping herself for free.
But there was no relationship or affection between her and Deng Wenying, so there was no need for Deng Wenying to help her like this.
In response to this, Deng Wenying explained that she really liked Zhuang Guizhi, thought she was capable and good-looking, and wanted a good girl like her to be her daughter-in-law.
She did this to gain an opportunity for her son.
What if Zhuang Guizhi finally softens her heart, or falls in love with her son, and the two of them eventually go from being a fake couple to a real couple?
Doesn't that mean she has gained a good daughter-in-law?
Moreover, even if Zhuang Guizhi and her son didn't end up together, she wouldn't lose out, because the betrothal gift was equivalent to a loan she gave to Zhuang Guizhi, and she would have to pay it back in the future, plus interest.
So with this calculation, it worked out, she had a good daughter-in-law.
If it doesn't work out, she won't lose any money, but will get more interest.
After hearing what she said, Zhuang Guizhi finally let down her guard.
At the same time, she was grateful.
She is grateful for Deng Wenying's kindness and her trust in her.
Even if Deng Wenying designed such a plan out of consideration for her son, it was already a great favor to Zhuang Guizhi.
Because in this way, she could not only escape from her cannibalistic mother's family, but also completely sever ties with the Zhuang family.
Moreover, based on Deng Wenying's kindness, even if she really didn't get together with Deng Wenying's son in the future, she would repay Deng Wenying well.
These were said privately by Deng Wenying and Zhuang Guizhi. No one else knew about it except them.
So in the eyes of outsiders, what they saw was that Zhuang Guizhi happily married into Deng Wenying's family for the high bride price.
When Zhuang Guizhi married into Deng Wenying's family, she was indeed in a relaxed mood.
Because she felt that she could finally escape from the kind of life where she was bullied and exploited every day, and had no food to eat or clothes to wear.
But what she never expected was.
When she got married with great expectations, she did not get a bright and beautiful life at all. Instead, she fell from one wolf pit into another.
On the day of the wedding, Deng Wenying tampered with the wine she had drunk and locked Zhuang Guizhi and her son in the same room.
When she woke up the next day, Zhuang Guizhi broke down and cried, asking Deng Wenying why she did this.
At this moment, Deng Wenying's face had already changed. Her previous gentle and kind expression disappeared, replaced by one full of sinister calculations.
She said.
"If I don't say this, what if you refuse to marry me? What if you sneak away in the middle of the night? I don't want to lose the wife I bought at such a high price just like that!"
"Besides, who made my son fall in love with you? You should just be our daughter-in-law from now on. Don't think too much. Now that the marriage is over, just live your life in peace."
Therefore, everything Deng Wenying said to her in private before was false.
It was just to make Zhuang Guizhi feel at ease about marrying him.
Otherwise, although Zhuang Guizhi had no way to leave the Zhuang family, if she refused to marry, Deng Wenhe would not have so much time to bother with her!
Moreover, if Zhuang Guizhi really makes a scene, won’t her and her son’s reputation be affected?
In the future, when others talk about them, they will probably laugh at them and say that the people who propose marriage to them look down on them.
When Zhuang Guizhi found out that everything Deng Wenying had said to her before was a lie, she felt like she was struck by lightning and wanted to die.
