Chapter 688 690. Forgot one thing
According to Xie Ruyi's understanding, Gu Yuanfeng might be feeling proud at this moment.
Not only will it be easier for them to control their stepson in the future, but the generous dowry given by the mother-in-law will also fall into the hands of the Shi family.
This is a win-win situation. As for the reputation of the Gu family, she doesn't even consider it.
Liu Liu suddenly clapped his hands, "Have we forgotten something?"
Several sisters-in-law stared at her, "..."
"We forgot about the He family." Liu Liu reminded everyone.
"We agreed at the time that they would not interfere in the affairs of these two children." Li Xiaohua was not so sure, "They should not ask about it, right?"
Liu Liu, "You are stupid, with our dowry plus the dowry my mother gave us, we have already caught up with those small landlords who marry off their daughters.
Money can move people's hearts. If this happened to us before, we would have had some thoughts, let alone the He family?"
The more Liu Liu thought about it, the more he felt that this matter might really cause trouble, so he reminded everyone, "Let's go back and tell our masters so that they can be prepared, just in case the He family really comes knocking on our door?"
Li Xiaohua, "Don't say that this is really possible. Although Chunya is still young, there is no guarantee that these people will be tempted."
Hong Daya, “I told you before, don’t be so generous.
You guys insisted on saying you were trying to save face for your mother, but now you are causing trouble again."
In her opinion, she was just a granddaughter, not a member of the Gu family. Li Cuicui should not have been so controlling, just giving away a random dowry and causing so much trouble.
It would be better to give the money to your own baby. When your baby becomes rich in the future, he will also think of the whole family.
"Fifth brother's wife, what are you talking about?" Xie Ruyi criticized, putting on the airs of an elder sister-in-law, "The Gu family is different now than before. When we go out, everyone will look up to us.
Even if Chuncao is not a child of our Gu family, she can at least call us aunt. If the gift is too small, can you afford it?
Now is not the time to complain about these things, let's think about it quickly, if the He family really comes to our door, what should we do? "
Hong Daya, "How else can we deal with it? They have to have the courage to come to us.
In the whole of Fu County, there is really no family that wants to make us uncomfortable.”
Liu Liu, "That being said, I'm just afraid that the other party will be too shameless, and it will be bad if it gets out.
Anyway, we women don’t know what’s going on outside, so we should go back and tell our brothers to prevent any trouble.”
Just when they thought everyone had time to prepare and think of a countermeasure, someone from the village came running over to tell them that the He family had arrived.
The sisters-in-law looked at each other, this happened really quickly.
Liu Liu turned around and glanced at Li Cuicui's house in the distance. "Don't tell mom yet. Let's go take a look first."
The old lady didn't seem to be in a very good mood, and she was thinking of asking a doctor to come back and check on her.
Xie Ruyi grabbed the boy who reported the news and said, "Don't go to your Aunt Dashi. Let's go to the front first. Go to the workshop and call your brother Yuan Jin and the others over."
When they arrived at the village entrance, they found that the He family had been stopped at the entrance.
Seeing them coming, instead of making noises and quarrels as usual, He Tuping, who had aged a lot, smiled and said, "Wa Wa's aunt, we just came to see the two children.
I heard Chuncao is married, so we came here to give her a gift."
Xie Ruyi looked up at the sky and said with a smile, "You guys came really early. The child has already left home. If you want to send a gift, why not send it directly to Stone Village."
This time, the He family member has improved. He was holding a cloth package in his hand, but no one knew what was inside.
"Is that so?" He Tuping rubbed his hands. "I got the news too late. What should I do now?"
Xie Ruyi and the others thought in their hearts that the He family had really grown up. How could they respond to this?
"It's easy," Liu Liu walked up to Xie Ruyi and said with a smile, "If you really want to send something, this Stone Village is not far away. You can find the place by asking people. It's not too late to chase after them now. The banquet should not be over yet."
"This is not good. After all, the child doesn't know I will be here today, and it will be difficult for her.
By the way, where is Erni? As a father, I haven’t seen her for a long time. Why don’t I let the child come out to see her?
Don't worry, I didn't intend to take the child back, I just wanted to see her."
He really didn't know what the girl's name was, so he just sorted her by Erni as everyone else called her.
"Er Ni?" Liu Liu looked at him with a smile, "My sister-in-law has been taken away. If you want to see her, you can only go to Shitou Village."
He Tuping, "...When will she come back?"
Xie Ruyi, "It's hard to say. After all, his mother is willing to bring him up with her. You should ask my sister-in-law."
He Tuping was anxious, "Didn't the old lady say she wanted to raise the child? Why did she give it to Yuan Feng again?"
Xie Ruyi, "This mother wants to raise a child, but she still has to ask you for permission? Back then, your He family asked for money but didn't care about the child. What do you think now?"
"That's really not what I meant," He Tuping said, his face flushed, "At that time, my mother had to accept the money because she had to do housework.
After all, he is my child. How can I just ignore him?
Look, this is the cloth I bought with the money I saved from working, just to show my appreciation as a father."
As He Tuping spoke, he put the package on the ground and tore it open, revealing two pieces of linen.
Liu Liu looked up and thought, if it were in the past, any child would be grinning with joy upon receiving such a piece of cloth.
However, the Gu family now looks down on such cloth. Even the He Chuncao sisters who were fostered here have never worn such cloth.
"It's too late to talk about this now," Xie Ruyi also glanced at him, and spoke in a more gentle tone, "If you really want to, why don't you go to Stone Village some other day to take a look."
Li Xiaohua tugged at Xie Ruyi's sleeve and asked in a low voice, "Sister-in-law, if he really goes, then my sister-in-law will be in trouble."
Xie Ruyi, "After all, she is his biological daughter. Even if we don't say so, she can still see her if she wants to.
What's more, these are Yuan Feng's past that cannot be erased, and there is no point in hiding them.
We've helped her clean up so many messes, it's time for her to face it herself."
After hearing what Xie Ruyi said, Li Xiaohua stopped trying to stop him, let go of her hand and stepped back.
What the eldest sister-in-law said makes sense. If the younger sister-in-law knew how to behave, the other sisters-in-law would have helped to stop it.
But Gu Yuanfeng is really not good at doing things. He goes back to his parents' home when he has something to do, and ignores his sisters-in-law when he has nothing to do.
They were about to become shrews because of her trivial matters every day. This time, she was unwilling to serve them.
