"Li Shanshan, it's not like my family can't afford the betrothal gift you gave me. Why are you hesitating so much?"
The one who opened the door was Sun Bowen's third sister, named Sun Jiajia, who was the same age as Li Shanshan and had sat at the same table when they were in school.
But at that time, Li Shanshan was not polite to her at all. She often joined her classmates to isolate her, locked her in the toilet, and threw bugs into her desk hole.
Unexpectedly, after so many years, Li Shanshan actually married her brother. This finally gave her a chance for revenge.
"Sun's girl, tell me how much do you give as a betrothal gift?"
As soon as Li Shanshan refused to mention it, everyone knew that there was something fishy about the betrothal gift.
They like to watch Li Shanshan's excitement the most, and they are sure to get the melon.
"Sun Jiajia, shut up!" Li Shanshan warned, her face dark as if ink was dripping out.
"If you tell me to shut up, I'll shut up. Ha! You really think you're a piece of cake!" Sun Jiajia snorted coldly and continued, "Look! Isn't it already on her?"
Raise your finger and point at her.
"What?! Are you saying that the betrothal gift is only a set of clothes for 깊?"
"Yes! This outfit cost my brother sixty dollars. My mother thought sixty didn't sound nice, so she added another six dollars to make it rounded off. Sixty-six is a little more reasonable!"
Sun Jiajia curled the corners of her lips, showing her disdain as much as she could.
"puff!"
"Hahaha……"
“Hehe…”
Everyone burst into laughter.
It wasn't that they wanted to laugh, they just couldn't hold it back.
"Hahaha... Li Shanshan! You are actually only worth the price of a set of clothes... a six-yuan betrothal gift... This is the first time I've heard of this! Hehehe... No, I'm dying of laughter. The silly girl next door gave me a fifty-yuan betrothal gift, plus a new set of clothes. You, you are not worth as much as that silly girl! Li Shanshan, who are you trying to make laugh to death!"
He laughed as he spoke, holding his stomach with his hands until tears came out of his eyes.
If there was no one to support her, she would laugh under the table.
"You...Cao Meifeng, shut up. Who are you scolding as worse than a silly girl?" Li Shanshan was furious.
"Everyone says you are a money loser. I didn't understand it before, but today I understand you better. Li Shanshan, you have a stable job and a monthly salary of 28 yuan, but the Sun family only gave you 6 yuan as a betrothal gift, which is not even a fraction of your salary. You are throwing money away!
"Haha! You are such a fool! I have never seen a money loser like you! It is so unlucky for my aunt to give birth to a daughter like you. You will be laughed at to death by others." Cao Meifeng continued to mock.
"That's right, when my daughter got married, she was given two large quilts, a bicycle, and a hundred yuan as a gift."
"When my family married our son-in-law, we gave her a sewing machine and a gift of money!"
The gifts that the onlookers displayed were like knives of mockery, piercing Li Shanshan's heart.
Li Shanshan felt that her face was being trampled on. The onlookers looked at her with mocking, sarcastic, and ridiculing eyes...
She used to be so high and mighty in front of these relatives, but now she has become like stinky dog shit in the toilet, and everyone comes up to spit in her face.
Li Shanshan's heart was filled with yelling, and she wished she could tear the vicious faces of everyone present to pieces.
"Shut up, shut up, all of you shut up." Li Shanshan's eyes were red, and her eyes seemed to be crazy. "What do you know? The betrothal gift is just a physical thing. As long as Sun Bowen treats me well, I don't care."
"Li Shanshan, you have been bewitched by this man, right? Not only did your in-laws not spend a penny to marry you... No, they even paid six yuan as a gift. You brought your dowry and a stable job, but they probably had their eyes on you from the beginning."
"That's right, don't be so ignorant. While we, your relatives, are supporting you, you should ask your in-laws to give you an additional betrothal gift. We are doing this for your own good!"
They really mean this. Even if they don't fight, they are still a family and won't let anyone bully them.
But some people just take other people's kindness for granted.
Without waiting for Sun Bowen to speak, Li Shanshan looked at him affectionately, "Brother Bowen, when I get married, will your family treat me well?"
Sun Bowen also held Li Shanshan's hand with deep affection in his eyes, "Shanshan, I'm sorry that I made you feel wronged today. Don't worry, if you marry me, you will be my daughter-in-law. I will definitely treat you well in the future! I will not let you down."
Tsk!
Everyone present almost vomited.
Cheng Yunan was watching with great interest.
It is said that a man's mouth can deceive people.
To see how sincere a man is to you, don't look at how much he says, but look at how much he does.
Sun Bowen did nothing but coax Li Shanshan into becoming his bootlicker with just his words.
No wonder they say women in love are stupid. Li Shanshan is bad and stupid and deserves to be deceived.
No one had any interest in watching the excitement any longer, so they all left quickly after eating.
Afterwards, they mocked Li Shanshan for being an idiot.
After watching the lively scene, Lu Xiaoyue did not help Li's mother run around today. Instead, she held Yangyang and had a good meal with the Lu family.
During this period, Ma Xiulian also asked Lu Xiaoyue to help. Li Baoguo asked her to spend time with her family while he went to work.
"Boss, you are…"
"It's okay, mom. Don't worry. I was too sensible before, so the Li family thought that everything I did was the right thing to do. Now I have thought it through."
As soon as Ma Xiulian heard it, she knew there was something fishy going on, but as long as her son-in-law didn't mind, she wouldn't say anything more.
Their Xiaoyue now has a stable job and does not have to live under the guise of the Li family.
Li Hongmei looked around for a few times and then buried her head in eating.
Cheng Yunan also looked at Lu Xiaoyue, and when she shook her head to indicate that she was fine, Cheng Yunan did not ask any more questions.
The Li family was bustling for a while, and then everyone left.
Li Shanshan went back to her room and lay on the bed crying.
"Mom, what do those people mean? They are not here to sincerely bless me, they are just here to watch the fun."
Li's mother was still upset about the betrothal gift. She also heard about what happened today, but there was nothing she could do. The main reason was that Sun's family was such a scoundrel that they were reluctant to pay the betrothal gift. It was obvious that they were after her daughter.
But what could she do? The girl was determined to marry Sun Bowen and she couldn't stop him.
"Okay, you were the one who clamored to get married, and now you're being ridiculed, you only have yourself to blame." It was rare for Li's mother to give Li Shanshan a cold face, so she could only shut up in frustration.
"Mom, how much are you going to give me?" Li Shanshan thought, since her husband's family is not good enough, she will get more from her parents' family, at least to ensure that she lives a good life.
"Hmph!" Mother Li snorted coldly and tapped her head, looking disappointed. "You are still thinking about me!"
"Hehe!" Li Shanshan smiled and stuck to her mother's arms, "Mom, I am your only daughter. When my eldest brother got married, you prepared a lot of good things for my eldest sister-in-law. Now that I am getting married, you should not show favoritism."
Mother Li was stunned for a moment.
As a mother, she prepared a lot of betrothal gifts, which was the intention of her parents, and Li Shanshan's blatant request made her feel uncomfortable.
