Zhang Wenyu saw that Wang Tingting had gone out and had not returned yet, so she was about to go out to check. As soon as she took a step, she saw a boy who looked like a high school student coming in.
Wang Tingting followed in and introduced them.
"This is my younger brother Wang Zirui. He's a sophomore in high school and just came back from cram school."
She turned around and spoke to her brother.
"These three are my college classmates, you can just call them sisters."
Wang Tingting's brother, Wang Zirui, was different from his mother in that he was very welcoming. He strongly invited them to sit in the living room and brought them fruits and snacks.
"Sisters, eat fruit."
Wang Zirui was busy running around, ordering her sister to cook, and then saying that there was not enough food at home and he had to go buy food for them. This made Zhang Wenyu and the others feel a little uneasy.
This is too enthusiastic. They came here to help, but now it seems like they are making others even busier.
Several people quickly grabbed Wang Zirui.
"Don't worry, we have a good relationship with your sister, there's no need to be so formal. Just eat whatever you want. The food in the kitchen is for tomorrow's banquet, don't make your sister busy."
While they were arguing, Wang Tingting's parents came back.
As soon as Liu E entered the room, she saw the table full of food. Several little girls who said they came to help were sitting on the sofa, and her son was pouring tea for them. She instantly became furious.
"How much food has been prepared for you at home?! The host and guests haven't even arrived yet, and you little girls are already eating! Wang Tingting, Wang Tingting, you little bitch! Where have you been? Come here quickly!"
Wang Tingting's father, Wang Jun, stood aside with a frown and looked very dissatisfied.
Before Wang Tingting came over, Wang Zirui stood up first.
"Mom, what are you talking about? These are distinguished guests."
After saying that, he didn't care that his parents were still angry, and dragged them out, one by one.
The remaining Zhang Wenyu and others looked at each other.
Xu Nuo glared angrily.
"What do you mean? When I was a bridesmaid, the host family treated me to delicious food and drinks. If I drink a bowl of water from her here, I'll be criticized."
Jia Jia pulled her sleeve and gestured to Wang Tingting to be outside the door.
Xu Nuo pursed his lips and said nothing more.
Wang Tingting stood outside the door for a while, then walked over.
"Because I'm a girl, my parents don't like me. Even though I've studied hard, done chores, earned scholarships, and given them all my money after I started working, they still think I'm a waste. For this wedding, the man's family said the woman's family also wanted to have some fun, and my dad agreed right away to save face. But after I got home, he felt like I was spending too much money, and he's always disliked me. I didn't expect that I'd end up getting into trouble with you now. I'm so sorry."
"Isn't this just favoring boys over girls? It's a different era now, and people still have this kind of thinking."
Zhang Wenyu and the others were furious when they heard this, and Xu Nuo was even about to run out and curse.
Wang Tingting stopped her.
"I know you want to vent your anger on my behalf, but she's been trained in this kind of environment since she was a child, and ordinary people can't scold her. Anyway, I'm getting married and leaving tomorrow, so there's no need to bother with them anymore."
Zhang Wenyu felt distressed when seeing Wang Tingting like this.
Although Wang Tingting had a soft temper in school, she was always full of hope for the future. Now, just one year after graduation, she seems to have accepted her fate.
She felt really uneasy. Seeing that Wang Tingting regarded marriage as a way to escape from here, she couldn't help but want to find out more.
"So, is your boyfriend's family treating you well?"
Wang Tingting didn't answer, but just held Zhang Wenyu's hand and said.
"Don't worry, I'll be fine."
Zhang Wenyu wanted to ask more questions, but was interrupted by Wang Zirui who had returned.
Liu E, who had just had a fierce look on her face, now changed her expression. She walked forward with a smile, holding a big watermelon in her arms.
"Oh, Auntie was just joking with you. You must be too hot after being busy all morning. Come on, come on, have some watermelon that Auntie just bought."
Not only Zhang Wenyu and the other two, but even Wang Tingting was stunned by Liu E's behavior. However, Liu E acted as if nothing had happened. She put down the watermelon and, pulling each of them back onto the sofa, she turned and told Wang Tingting to cook.
"Tingting's cooking is quite good. You can have lunch here. My Tingting is such a taciturn person. She didn't even bother to tell us that she knew you, the nobles. What does your family do? That car at the door is really nice. Did it come from your house?"
Zhang Wenyu glanced at Wang Zirui who was accompanying her, and seemed to understand why Wang Tingting's mother's attitude had changed so much.
He knew there was a rich man among them, so he came to find out some information so that he could take the opportunity to build a relationship with him and get some benefits.
After exchanging glances with Xu Nuo and Jia Jia, the three of them simply started to fool them.
The Liu E couple had never met wealthy people, and Wang Zirui, in his second year of middle school, lacked the ability to discern. Wang Tingting, the only one who knew the truth, was assigned to the kitchen to cook. So when Wang Tingting came over with the dishes, she saw her parents, brother, and three friends chatting happily.
In the afternoon, the bride's relatives also arrived one after another. Liu E and her husband had no time to bother Zhang Wenyu and the other two. Only Wang Zirui came over from time to time to mention his intention to take a car, but Zhang Wenyu ignored him.
In the evening, Zhang Wenyu gave Wang Tingting the gift he had prepared.
"I saw this when I was shopping a few days ago. I think it suits you very well. I hope you will be happy in the future."
When I was in college, I was watching an idol drama with Zhang Wenyu. She pointed at the bag the female lead was holding and said, "I think it's beautiful!" She said she hoped to buy one after graduation and getting a job. Later, when she found out the bag was Hermès, she stopped mentioning it.
