Su Guoyu and Han Wenying were preparing lunch in the kitchen.
Seeing them chatting and laughing with each other, getting along like sisters, both of them raised the corners of their lips.
"Seeing my nephews getting married and starting their own families, and living in harmony with each other, I feel so happy!" Su Guoyu said sincerely.
The three brothers of the Su family grew up under Su Guoyu's nose. Although they are only nephews, they are no different from his biological sons!
"Of course! At our age, we all hope for the best for our children! You, as an aunt, have made an invaluable contribution," Han Wenying praised.
"You've brought up these three boys very well, and your taste in choosing wives is not bad either!
They say a harmonious family brings prosperity!
Whether this family is harmonious or not, the daughters-in-law are the key! Look at our family, the sisters-in-law and the aunts-in-law, they get along so well, their future life will definitely be good!"
"That's what my sister-in-law said!"
Thinking of Liu Jiajia, Su Guoyu put away his smile.
"Second brother and his wife have suffered because of this daughter-in-law! One person has caused unrest in the whole family. Second sister-in-law might be upset right now!"
"What's wrong with her again?" Han Wenying was surprised.
"Why!"
Su Guoyu sighed and preached,
"Originally, my second brother and his wife were supposed to come to Su Yan's wedding, but they called yesterday to say they weren't coming. When I asked, I found out that Liu Jiajia's mother was causing trouble again, and Liu Jiajia was even hospitalized!"
When Han Wenying heard that Liu Jiajia was hospitalized, as a doctor, the first thing she thought of was the baby in her belly.
"Is the baby okay? She just had a miscarriage last time. If she can't keep the baby..."
Han Wenying shook her head. She was of course very clear about the consequences of frequent miscarriages.
"It was just a miscarriage, but the baby is saved!" Su Guoyu took a deep breath and said helplessly,
"It's just a pity for that boy Su Kun. I'm afraid he'll have to wait a few more years before he can get married!"
"How does this involve the second boy's marriage?" Han Wenying frowned in confusion.
"It's said that marrying a good wife brings prosperity to three generations, while marrying a bad one ruins the family!"
Speaking of this, Su Guoyu was so angry that he increased the strength of chopping the meat!
"Su Kun is a lucky guy, he's dating someone from the same compound as my second brother.
The two children have been childhood sweethearts, the two families are well matched, and both parents are happy to see it happen.
That girl is quite capable and was admitted to Kyoto University this year.
Thinking that they would soon be separated and not wanting to affect her studies, the girl discussed with the second boy that they should either get married before school started or wait until she graduated to consider marriage.
After the two families discussed it, they felt that both children were old enough to get married, and it would be better to do it sooner rather than later, so they started discussing the details of the wedding.
This conversation inevitably involves betrothal gifts and dowries.
The girl has two older brothers and this is her only little daughter, who was raised and spoiled at home.
Considering that their daughter would have to go to school for four years after marriage and would have no source of income, the girl's parents directly asked for 1,000 yuan as a dowry, and the man's betrothal money would all belong to their daughter.
When the second sister-in-law and second brother heard this, they thought, since the woman has already gone this far, we men can’t be too stingy, right?
So they agreed, and the man gave a thousand yuan as a betrothal gift, plus three turns and a ring.
"A thousand yuan betrothal gift is not a small amount these days!"
Han Wenying listened and casually interjected, "But the woman also gave back so much, and gave it all to the young couple, so it makes sense!
But what does this have to do with Liu Jiajia?
The betrothal money didn't come from her pocket, and according to the rules of our Su family, don't those who are married have to separate and live alone? "
Han Wenying stopped picking vegetables, still puzzled.
“Who says it’s not?
But Liu Jiajia happened to tell this matter to her greedy mother!
That old lady from the Liu family is really greedy for money!
When she heard that her second brother and sister-in-law wanted to give a dowry of 1,000 yuan to the second son's wife, but her daughter only accepted 500 yuan from the Su family, she immediately became restless.
He gathered several nephews from his mother's side, along with little brother Liu and old man Liu, and drove Liu Jiajia to take the group to the home of his second brother and sister-in-law.
The Liu family made a big fuss at my second brother’s house!
She complained that her second brother and sister-in-law were partial to her daughter and mistreat her. She even went to extremes and cursed the Su family for being powerful and looking down on ordinary people like her!
The noise was so loud that all the neighbors came to watch the fun.
In the end, she even threatened directly that if the Su family did not pay back the 500 yuan betrothal money that her daughter had been wronged with, then the second son of the Su family would not be able to hold his wedding!
This farce happened to be witnessed by Su Kun's future mother-in-law, who then told her daughter about it.
When Xinjie heard this, he didn't want to embarrass the Su family because of this matter, so he made a phone call and postponed the marriage to after graduation.
When Su Kun received a call from Xinjie and rushed back to the compound, Su Gan also rushed over.
Looking at the furious Liu family and hearing Su Kun say that Xinjie had postponed the wedding date, the second brother and his wife were very angry.
The eldest brother even slapped Su Gan in the face on the spot.
When the Liu family learned that they had ruined the marriage of the second son of the Su family and knew that they would not get the money, they left in disappointment.
Normally, the matter should have ended here, but it was hard for Su Kun, who had to wait another four years before he could get married.
But who would have thought that Liu Jiajia's role was not over yet.
She felt that she had caused trouble, and first admitted her mistake to her second brother and sister-in-law with tears in her eyes, and then she apologized to her brother-in-law Su Kun.
Considering that she was a pregnant woman, no one could say much.
But who would have thought that when she was pulling Su Gan's sleeve and trying to please him to go home with him, Su Gan held his breath and swung her away with one arm.
Because of this arm, Liu Jiajia finally couldn't keep her balance and fell on her butt on the concrete floor.
My second sister-in-law said that she started bleeding right away! Not only did Su Gan get so scared that he couldn't move, but Liu Jiajia also fainted on the spot.
Fortunately, she was sent to the hospital in time and the baby in her belly was saved.
However, for the past month, Liu Jiajia has been unable to get out of bed.
Su Gan has to work and can't get away, so he has trapped his second sister-in-law!
For the sake of my unborn grandson, I have to serve Liu Jiajia food and drink every day."
Su Guoyu finished speaking in one breath, and his words were full of sympathy for his second brother's family.
"So, Su Gan's wife really wasn't sober enough in this matter!"
After hearing this, Han Wenying couldn't help but comment,
"He knew his mother's temper very well, but he couldn't control his mouth, saying everything he should and shouldn't say.
Although five hundred yuan is not a small amount, even if you feel unbalanced, you can still discuss it with your family behind closed doors! Why do you have to drag your family into this?"
