Chapter 141 Mother Doesn’t Have That Much Money
Chang Wei looked at Jiang Xiaohe like a shrew.
Jiang Xiaohe frowned, but for Meng Hetang's sake, she still welcomed the person in.
The servant behind hurriedly brought over the gifts, and Steward Chang also handed over something, but Jiang Xiaohe only accepted the gifts from Meng Hetang and didn't even take the one handed to her by Steward Chang.
Manager Chang glanced at his master and said, "See, he told you not to come, but he insisted on joining in the fun. Now he's been slapped in the face."
"Boss Meng, please."
Meng Hetang glanced at Chang Wei and laughed in his heart, thinking, you kid can finally have this day.
Jiang Xiaohe led the way, and Meng Hetang and the others followed behind. They were brought to the main hall, where a table was specially set up for the guests.
"Boss Meng, let me introduce you to our village chief, Zhang Shunchang."
"Village Chief, this is the owner of Chunfenglou Restaurant in town who does business with me, Meng Hetang, Boss Meng."
Zhang Shunchang stood up quickly. He didn't expect Jiang Xiaohe to introduce such a distinguished person to him.
His face was slightly flushed with excitement.
"Hello, Mr. Meng."
"Hello, Village Chief Zhang."
The two exchanged a few words and then sat down.
Chang Wei looked at Jiang Xiaohe. What about him? Not introducing him?
Jiang Xiaohe rolled her eyes at him, turned around and went out, telling Zhang Fu: "Dad, Boss Meng from town is here, you go and keep him company, and..."
She pulled Zhang Fu aside and said, "Chang Wei is here too, because he came with Boss Meng. I welcomed him in, but if he says anything unpleasant later, Dad will just kick him out."
Zhang Fu nodded: "Dad understands."
He turned around and called Zhang Quan to go in with him.
Wang Qiuxia also saw Chang Wei and was slightly puzzled. She frowned and asked Jiang Xiaohe, "Why is he here?"
"He came here with Boss Meng. I can't say anything, lest I offend Boss Meng. But he doesn't look like he's here to cause trouble."
With her words, Wang Qiuxia finally felt relieved.
Around noon, an ox cart stopped at the entrance of the village. It turned out to be Wang Dayi's family. This time, even Wang Fusheng and Bai Yulan came along.
Wang Dayi pointed to the front and said, "Dad, Mom, are you okay? My sister's house is just ahead."
The two old men waved their hands: "It's okay."
When I arrived at the door, someone outside immediately shouted, "Sister Wang, there are guests!"
When Wang Qiuxia heard this, she hurried outside. When she saw her parents were there, her eyes instantly turned red.
"Father, mother!"
Bai Yulan pulled her and said, "I can see from a distance that this house is very grand. My daughter is lucky to live in a house like this."
Wang Qiuxia wiped her eyes with her apron: "It's all Xiaohe's money."
Jiang Xiaohe patted her on the back: "Okay, Mom, this is a great day, you can't cry."
Wang Qiuxia nodded quickly.
Jiang Xiaohe stepped forward and supported Bai Yulan: "Come on, grandma, I'll show you around."
Bai Yulan nodded and followed Jiang Xiaohe, saying, "Where is my great-grandson?"
"It's in the back room."
Chen Xiuquan, Daya and Xiaoya followed behind them.
Wang Qiuxia looked at Wang Dayi: "Isn't my elder sister coming today?"
Wang Dayi shook his head.
Wang Qiuxia sighed, "Forget it, it's not easy for my elder sister either, don't worry about it, come in quickly, the meal will start soon. This time you come, you have to stay at home for two more days."
Seeing that almost everyone had arrived, Wang Qiuxia started to invite people to eat.
Today's feast is more sumptuous than when we raised the beam, with chicken, duck, fish and meat!
There are ten dishes on each table, both meat and vegetables!
The villagers were already drooling at the sight of the dishes served; they were much better than what they ate during Chinese New Year.
Zhang Fu asked Zhang Shunchang for help and said a few words before the meal began.
Wang Hong and Zhang Daniu helped pour wine for everyone.
Jiang Xiaohe said with a smile: "Everyone eat and drink well today, and the food is sufficient."
Aunt Hua looked at Wang Qiuxia and said, "Your wife is very generous!"
Wang Qiuxia felt that there was light on this surface, and suddenly realized that what Xiaohe said a few days ago was right. Such a big house has been built, so there is no need to care about such a small thing!
The new house was bustling with activity, but the few families that usually didn't get along with Jiang Xiaohe were deserted.
He Xiu's in-laws and husband pointed at her and scolded her: "Why did I marry a spendthrift like you? Jiang Xiaohe is so good at making money. In the village, we don't bother to curry favor with her, but you are rushing to make trouble for others!"
Her mother-in-law Xu Mei agreed and said, "That's right! Look at Hua Pozi, who is on good terms with them, and Li Cuihong, which one of them didn't take advantage of her family! Because of you, I didn't even get to attend the housewarming party today!"
He Xiu felt extremely aggrieved, but she didn't dare to say anything.
The same thing happened to Li Taohua's family. Chen Guifang got angry when she heard how lively Jiang Xiaohe's family was.
"Pretending to be generous! I think after the housewarming party, they will hide at home and eat coarse food!" After saying that, he glanced at Li Taohua and squatted down: "Taohua, your injury is almost healed, when are you going back?"
"Mom! Are you going to chase me away?" Li Taohua still had some wounds on her face that had not healed completely.
Chen Guifang said quickly: "How could that be? Mother was thinking, since you've already married him, could he really divorce you? If you want a divorce, you have to return the betrothal gift, and mother doesn't have that much money!"
Li Taohua snorted, then felt aggrieved and her eyes turned red.
Chen Guifang took one look and immediately advised: "Mother told me at the beginning that Zhang Long was unreliable, but you just didn't believe it."
"Mom, what's the point of saying that now!"
"Then you're not going back?"
Li Taohua snorted, her voice choking with sobs: "Then...then I can't just go back like this! It's been so long, and they haven't come to pick me up. If I go back like this, they will only bully me even more in the future!"
After saying this, he began to sob.
Although Chen Guifang felt sad, she was also a little irritated. Her daughter was already married, but she had been living in her parents' home for a month or so. The food in her parents' home was still food!
But this was just a piece of flesh that had fallen off his body after all. He sighed, turned around and saw He Qing. After thinking about it, he walked up to him.
When He Qing saw Chen Guifang walking towards her, she was frightened all over. She put down the embroidery in her hands and stood up.
"mother...."
Chen Guifang got angry when she saw her timid look, so she grabbed the handkerchief she was embroidering and threw it on the ground: "Instead of embroidering these all day, you might as well think about how to get your man home! You've been married for so many years, and you haven't even laid a egg!"
He Qing clenched his hands, lowered his head, and didn't dare to speak at all.
Seeing her like this, Chen Guifang slapped her in the face.
There was a snapping sound, and He Qing covered her face, not knowing how she had offended her mother-in-law again, but she still said, "Mom, I know I was wrong."
This sentence made Chen Guifang feel much better, and she pinched her and took her out to the yard.
He Qing's face turned red with pain, but he didn't dare to say a word.
When they got outside the courtyard, Chen Guifang let go of her hand and said in a low voice, "Don't you see that your sister-in-law has been living in her parents' home for so long?"
"I saw it."
Chen Guifang rolled her eyes: "You go to the Zhang family now and tell Zhang Long and Sun Tingfang that it's been so long, no matter how big the fault of our daughter is, it's time to let it go. The two families will each take a step back, and the incident of them beating our daughter will be over. After all, we have to live on."
