But she had no choice at the time. She couldn't just watch her sister-in-law become so depressed. She was even more worried that she would commit suicide.
After she married Jiangxi Cheng, although she didn't live in the Jiang family's hometown much, every time she went back, her sister-in-law treated her like her own sister. She said that she was the only daughter in the family and had envied others for having brothers and sisters. She didn't expect that after getting married, she would meet such a good sister-in-law. Naturally, she exchanged her sincerity for hers.
Wei was unable to accompany her sons to grow up, so she loves her youngest son the most.
Compared with the treatment of his two older brothers, Jiang Huaichuan was simply a "crown prince" who refused to marry, which made several elders very angry.
This is also thanks to Li Shaohua's protection. Otherwise, with Jiang Xicheng's personality, the marriage would have been arranged long ago, and he would have to marry her even if he didn't want to!
"Sister-in-law, you're being too formal when you tell me this. You've taken such good care of Huaichuan, and I'm grateful to you in my heart. Now that he's getting married, we can finally rest assured."
Li Shaohua held Xu Hongping's hand and said, "This is the money you and your eldest brother have worked so hard to save. You can't accept it, my sister. I have already prepared wives for the brothers. I know what you mean, but we can't accept this money. Just consider it as compensation from our mother to the third brother. We have to pay the betrothal gift as well."
"Take it back quickly! If Xi Shen sees it later, he'll definitely make a big deal out of it! When they have children in the future, you can save this money for your grandchildren!"
Xu Hongping burst into laughter. After all, she was an educated person, and the peasant woman in the countryside could not argue with her. "Okay! I've wanted to have a grandson for a long time. I originally thought Yingying would be the first one to let me have one, but... Ugh! Bah, bah, bah, look at me, saying these words on such a happy day!"
"Don't worry about Yingying's marriage. Our Yingying is well-off anyway, so why worry about not finding a good one?" Li Shaohua stuffed the paper bag into Xu Hongping's pocket. Suddenly, he thought of something and said, "I almost forgot! Before I came back, I heard in the army that Xiao Lu was attracted to our Yingying. Did you know about this?"
Xu Hongping was not surprised. "I know. Xiao Lu's mother has lived in the village for quite a while. She mentioned this to us. I am also happy to see Xiao Lu, so I have no objection. The main problem is that your eldest brother doesn't agree."
"Why is that?"
"It's because of Fang Jiaxing's experience that your eldest brother wanted Yingying to marry closer to him so he could protect her and prevent her from suffering any grievances in the future. The newly appointed production team leader in our village was promoted by your eldest brother. He's a good guy, but..."
Xu Hongping felt a little regretful halfway through her speech. After seeing such an excellent son-in-law candidate like Lu Yanchuan, how could she look down on anyone else?
Li Shaohua disagreed, "Brother, you have old-fashioned ideas. Yingying must marry someone she likes. If Yingying doesn't even like Xiao Lu, I think others will find it even more difficult for her to see."
"Who says it isn't?"
Xu Hongping shook her head helplessly.

Half a minute later, Jiang Dongfang also came back, intending to go to the Li family with them to propose marriage.
Any news of any disturbance in the village would spread quickly, and soon many people gathered near the Li family, wanting to join in the fun.
Li Shaohua and Xu Hongping walked in front, followed by three big men, each holding a lot of things in their hands, all of which were part of the betrothal gifts.
