Chapter 653: Awkward Gift Giving



He had no idea what difficult decision his former daughter-in-law and the mother of his only daughter was making.

Su Baoshan chose one of the forks in the road and came to Du Yuefeng's house.

Du Yuefeng's parents had passed away long ago, but since Su Baoshan had come to propose marriage, she couldn't just stay at home alone, so she had to call a few relatives from the Du family to come and help out.

Before, Old Lady Su asked her directly what kind of betrothal gift she wanted, and Du Yuefeng just said that it was enough as long as the gift was present.

Anyway, she has chosen Su Baoshan, so she doesn't really care about the amount of the bride price.

After all, she was remarried and had a daughter, so some men looked down on her.

She was satisfied that the Su family was willing to let her bring her daughter with her.

Seeing the 88 yuan betrothal gift that Su Baoshan took out, she had nothing to be dissatisfied with.

But when she saw the brand new watch he took out, she was stunned and looked up at Su Baoshan in surprise.

“This is what my mother wanted.”

Su Baoshan told the truth that it was indeed Mrs. Su's idea to buy this watch.

But no matter who bought it, this watch is much rarer in the eyes of others, and the 88 yuan is really a lot in comparison.

"Oh, Yuefeng is so lucky!"

"You can tell at a glance that this future mother-in-law loves her daughter-in-law!"

"Yuefeng has found a good family!"

"Yeah yeah……"

The relatives around echoed the words, and some of them expressed envy, especially when looking at the watch.

"Baoshan, please sit down and have a rest. You must be tired after the journey." Du Yuefeng's third cousin said with a smile.

"Yes, come and sit down and have some water." This is Du Yuefeng's seventh cousin, the daughter of Du Yuefeng's aunt.

They are all relatives, but they usually live in the same village so they have some friendship.

It is not easy for Du Yuefeng, a woman, to live with a child, and she often receives some steamed bread, wild vegetables, wild mushrooms, etc. from her relatives.

Su Baoshan sat down surrounded by the crowd.

Although Su Baoshan is a man, Du Yuefeng is a woman after all, so it is not convenient to let a man come over, and the relatives who come are all women.

Su Baoshan also felt a little uncomfortable when he sat down.

But what made him even more uncomfortable was yet to come——

"I heard that you and your last wife broke up because she couldn't have children, right?"

Such a discordant voice suddenly rang out.

Su Baoshan's whole body stiffened, and the fingers holding the cup trembled.

He looked up and saw a somewhat unfamiliar woman looking at him with a forced smile on her face.

Suddenly the room was silent.

In fact, everyone in these mountain villages where there are no secrets knows what's going on with Su Baoshan's family.

But no one would ask it so openly.

They came here today just to liven up Du Yuefeng's life and make her house look less deserted.

Who would have thought that such a person would appear...

Someone next to her touched the woman's arm, but that person just stared at Su Baoshan.

"Tell me, what's going on?"

The woman said relentlessly.

Du Yuefeng looked at Su Baoshan's pale face, and hurriedly looked at the man with a smile: "Fifth cousin, Brother Baoshan is here to give the betrothal gift today, and the rest is..."

"You're not afraid of that kind of family, but what if you can't give birth to a son after you marry into their family? Will you be kicked out like his previous wife?"

The woman called Fifth Cousin said in a cold voice.

Du Yuefeng's face looked a little bad after hearing this.

She thought that she might not be unable to give birth to a son. Isn't it said that flowers bloom before fruits bear fruit? She only gave birth to one daughter, Chang Jiaping, and she would definitely be able to give birth to a son later.

Xu Xiangru couldn't have children, but she was in good health.

But she couldn't say this...

She hasn't married yet.

Du Yuefeng was at a loss for words as her fifth cousin-in-law kept pestering her for unknown reasons.

Just when the situation was extremely awkward, Su Baoshan suddenly spoke:

"Don't worry, no matter whether Yuefeng can give birth to a son or not, or even if she can give birth at all, she will always be my wife."

These words left Du Yuefeng and the fifth cousin-in-law stunned.

The other people around were also a little bit unbelievable.

How dare Su Baoshan say that?

Is he just saying it casually or does he really mean it?

The fifth cousin's wife said, "How dare you say that? Even if you looked at us carefully, we wouldn't believe it."

Although Su Baoshan didn't know why his fifth cousin suddenly targeted him, he temporarily assumed that she felt sorry for Du Yuefeng. After all, what happened in his family before... He answered seriously:

"I swear, everything I said is true. If I tell a lie, I will be struck by lightning."

Su Baoshan has already thought it through.

Regardless of whether he married Du Yuefeng voluntarily or was forced, this matter cannot be blamed on Du Yuefeng.

When they get married, Du Yuefeng will be his daughter-in-law.

He had already let Xu Xiangru down, and he couldn't let another woman down again.

This time, no matter whether Du Yuefeng can give birth or not, whether she can give birth to a son or not, he will never compromise with his mother again.

Just that once.

It has caused him great pain.

He couldn't do it again.

Not to mention others, the person who was most touched by these words was Du Yuefeng.

She didn't expect Su Baoshan to say such a thing.

She thought Su Baoshan had no feelings for her, but who would have thought...

She subconsciously covered her mouth to prevent herself from crying out loud with excitement.

"What a good man!"

"We are relieved to entrust Yuefeng to you!"

“That’s really great!”

The relatives around hurriedly spoke.

Su Baoshan didn't laugh or say anything else.

He just said what he was thinking and didn't need anyone else's praise.

At this moment, I heard the fifth cousin's wife sneer among the crowd:

"So you really love Yuefeng so much. It seems that you simply got tired of your previous wife and didn't want her anymore."

Su Baoshan's face turned completely pale when he heard this.

"you……"

My fifth cousin’s wife had a half-smile on her face.

"Fifth brother's wife, what are you doing?" Third cousin scolded disapprovingly, "Today is a good day, why do you always bring up these things!"

The fifth cousin-in-law glanced at the third cousin-in-law, then looked at Du Yuefeng, and said, "Aren't these questions exactly the purpose of our visit today?"

Others, including my third cousin: "..."

Du Yuefeng suddenly wanted to know why her fifth cousin said this.

She turned her head and looked at Su Baoshan.

The latter's face finally regained its color and he said:

"I know I've let my ex-wife down, and it's useless for me to say anything about it, but I promise that I will make Yuefeng a good wife and won't let the same thing happen again."

"I can really promise!"

The fifth cousin's wife was stunned when she saw Su Baoshan's determined look.

There were tears in Du Yuefeng's eyes.

Regardless of whether this is true or false.

She believed it all.
