The person who spoke was Pan Ena, the third daughter-in-law of the second wife. She had only been married for two months, so she had never met Gu Wanwan and her brother.
To be honest, Cheng Mingzhu and her son and Zheng Shican really dislike Pan Ena.
Ever since the three of them returned to her parents' home, Pan Ena had been hostile to them, especially after the Cheng family elders recognized Cheng Zhiming as their grandson. She expressed her dissatisfaction openly and covertly, as if they would compete with her for the family property and status.
Please, in terms of blood relationship, Cheng Mingzhu and her son are much closer than she and her daughter-in-law.
Her brother and sister-in-law had no objection. How could she, a niece-in-law, have the nerve to give her aunt the cold shoulder?
Who says that a daughter becomes an outsider after she marries? The Cheng family does not have this rule. If a daughter marries out, she is still a daughter of the Cheng family.
Compared to a family with only boys, daughters are more favored. The two elders in the Cheng family are very open-minded and do not have the bad habit of favoring boys over girls. Daughters can carry on the family line just as sons.
But Pan Ena didn't think so. Her family valued boys over girls, and she was also a male chauvinist in her nature. She always felt that she had to give birth to a son so that she could get more resources from the Cheng family in the future.
She didn't think about the fact that the Cheng family had an unbalanced gender ratio, and the thing they had the most was male offspring.
Therefore, the two elders of the Cheng family envied the two elders of the Gu family. The Gu family had at least five granddaughters, whether they were biological children or adopted grandchildren.
The Cheng family has many people, but not all of them are of good character. There are always a few bad apples.
Pan Ena looked at Sister Wan, Brother Chen and the twins. After being amazed, she felt deep jealousy. The girl stared at that vixen face. Who was he trying to hook up with in the Cheng family?
The Cheng family is full of outstanding men, and it is right for them to be coveted by others, but that is not something ordinary people can dream of.
Of course, the benefits should be given to her mother's family. She privately arranged for her sisters and found opportunities for them to go on blind dates with the men from the Cheng family. By then, the family would be closer and the sisters would become sisters-in-law. There would not be so many conflicts. They could support each other and bring honor to her mother's family.
Cheng Feng, the youngest son of the eldest wife, was one of the candidates for brother-in-law that she valued, but unfortunately he had moved away. She would mention it to her aunt later and she would help to arrange the marriage as soon as possible to avoid those coquettish and slutty women from worrying about it.
In her opinion, Gu Wanwan's beauty posed a serious threat to her sister's future. If other men in the Cheng family saw her, they would inevitably be tempted.
If she were a man, she would also be moved. Who doesn't love beautiful women?
She has already thought about how to cause trouble. This kind of woman is only fit to be her brother's mistress.
However, the man next to her is quite handsome. She has many younger sisters, so those who are single can consider him.
"My name is Pan Ena, the third young lady of the second branch of the Cheng family." She held her head high, with a proud and boastful look on her face.
As soon as Sister Wan and Brother Chen saw her ugly look, they knew that the other party had arranged everything for them.
Stupid stuff.
Gu Wanwan spoke each word carefully, "My name is Gu Wanwan."
"I'm her boyfriend, Fu Jingchen, and these are our precious twins, boy and girl. Be safe and sound." Fu Jingchen raised his eyebrows with a half-smile, "You shouldn't mind that our family of four eats plain rice, right?"
In front of her elders, Pan Ena still knew how to fake a smile to maintain her dignity. If she already had a partner, there would be no hope. It seemed like he was here to take advantage of her. She should just finish her meal early and go back.
Gu Wanwan asked knowingly, "Grandpa Cheng, is this your new daughter-in-law? No wonder I haven't seen her before. She doesn't seem to welcome us. I wonder how we offended her? Calling someone "young madam" is not popular in today's society. It's not like a capitalist should do that."
Fu Jingchen pretended to be in deep thought for a moment, "Speaking of my wife, we do have a feud. We just beat up a security captain named Pan Xiong. He claimed that his sister was the wife of the Cheng family and wanted me to obey him and be afraid of him. Are we the kind of cowards who are afraid of trouble?"
Gu Wanwan cooperated with her partner in complaining, "That's definitely not the case. We must avenge our enemies and repay our kindness. We have such a bad temper that we couldn't help but beat him up. As an elder sister, I think Third Young Madam shouldn't be petty and care about it, right?"
Pan Ena had never dealt with such a weirdo before. In front of the elders, he didn't give her the slightest bit of face and even brazenly declared that he had beaten her brother?
"You hit my brother? Why did you hit him? He was just guarding the door."
Her brother is a martial artist. Although he is not a formal soldier, his fighting ability is better than other guards. Otherwise, it would be difficult for him to be qualified for the job of guarding the First Compound relying solely on his connections. In addition to guarding the gate, he occasionally patrols the compound to ensure the safety of the leaders.
Gu Wanwan always speaks her mind and doesn't give her any face. "He collected protection money from us, shouldn't we beat him? When did the First Compound become a tourist park? We have to buy a ticket to come in. I've never heard of that."
Pan Ena's first reaction was disbelief. If her brother had taken the money privately, he wouldn't have cried poor in front of her. It must be these two people who were trying to stop the thief. "Shut up... ahem, I mean there might be a misunderstanding. My brother might think you are suspicious and won't let you in, so he deliberately makes things difficult for you. He is right to do so. After all, there are so many people from outside who want to get in. The First Compound is not a place where any random person can enter."
The people she was mocking implicitly were Gu Wanwan's family of four.
Old Cheng had a serious expression, his eyes were fierce and stern. He had watched Wanwan grow up, so there was no reason for her to lie. So there must be something wrong with Pan Ena's brother.
Cheng Mingzhu would not tolerate her just because she was her nephew's wife. She would teach anyone who displeased her a lesson. This was what Wanwan taught her. She did not live to please others. She was just her nephew's wife, but she was disrespectful and did not take her aunt seriously.
She would have to talk to her second sister-in-law later. If Pan Ena didn't take care of her anymore, she would be even more arrogant in the future.
I really don't know what kind of vision her nephew Cheng Ye has that he would actually look down on Pan Ena, such a dishonest person.
"Okay, Pan Ena, put away your little thoughts. Wanwan siblings are my father's godchildren. Their mother and I are good sisters from aristocratic families who grew up together. My parents have held Wanwan since she was born. Compared to your new daughter-in-law, my parents love Wanwan siblings more. After all, your mother's family is just a bunch of nobody."
Pan Ena's face turned red and white, feeling extremely embarrassed when her aunt hushed her in public. What qualifications did a married woman have to criticize her? When she gave birth to the future grandson of the Cheng family and became a great contributor to the Cheng family, she would definitely kick Cheng Mingzhu and her son out of the house.
As for Gu Wanwan's siblings, she didn't take them seriously at all. They were just poor relatives who came to ask for money. They were adopted relatives and not her biological children. There was no reason for the Cheng family to treat them the same way.
She glanced at the big bag on the ground. It didn't look like hot-selling goods. They should be some cheap mountain products that were not worth much in the countryside. How could they be used as gifts? It was really stingy.
"So you are relatives. I wonder how long you will stay. As your sister-in-law, I will prepare some gifts for you as a token of my appreciation. As for those cheap mountain products you packed, take them back and eat them yourself. My family doesn't lack them."
