Chapter 283: 089: Also Out of My League!_1

Mother Sun didn’t worry in the slightest that Lin Guixiang would refuse the Gui Family’s proposal.

After all, the Gui Family were bona fide locals of Qing City.

And Gui Mingtao was an exceptionally talented scholar.

Even though Gui Mingtao was now paralyzed and bedridden, he was still far better off than Lin Guixiang.

Because even as a vegetative person, his status and education remained.

No one could take that away.

And what about Lin Guixiang?

So what if she wasn’t paralyzed?

So what if she were a normal person?

She couldn’t recognize a single character.

She was still registered as a rural resident.

Who would fancy someone like that?

The Gui Family taking a liking to Lin Guixiang was already an enormous blessing for her, Lin Guixiang had no right to be choosy.

Would this kind of good fortune have fallen on Lin Guixiang’s head ten years ago?

In her dreams.

Shortly, Mother Sun lowered her voice and continued, "Anyway, Lin Guixiang will be part of your Gui Family in the future, so she wouldn’t dare to disobey you, right?"

Hearing Mother Sun’s words, Gui Lanzhi nodded.

Mother Sun was right, Lin Guixiang was just a rustic country person.

She wasn’t afraid of not being able to control her.

Lin Guimei walked up to Lin Guixiang, smiling, "Big sister, Xiao Wu, you’re here."

Her gaze fell on Lin Guixiang’s clothes, Lin Guimei frowned subtly.

LD.

LD was a local Qing City clothing brand, not exactly luxury, but the price wasn’t cheap either; a complete set would cost at least a thousand yuan.

It seems Lin Guixiang had really splurged to attend their housewarming party.

Probably.

She was also aiming to marry a local from Qing City, wasn’t she?

After all, all the relatives of the Sun Family were locals of Qing City.

And importantly, they were rich.

With this thought, Lin Guimei narrowed her eyes.

Lin Guixiang’s calculation was really quite shrewd.

"Auntie." Lin Wu greeted politely.

Lin Guimei nodded and asked, "Big sister, how did you get here?"

At that, Zhao Cuinong replied with a smile, "I drove big sister and Xiao Wu here. Qiangzi brought my mom and Jelly by car."

Lin Guimei smiled and nodded, but she snorted coldly inside.

It’s just an old Dongfeng Citroen, what’s so great about that?

Look at Zhao Cuinong’s smug face.

If people who didn’t know better saw her, they might think she bought some kind of luxury car.

Just then, Lin Guixiang took out a red envelope from her bag, "Gui Mei, congratulations. This is a little something from me."

Lin Guimei looked at the red envelope Lin Guixiang was handing over, her eyes brimming with mocking light. How much money could Lin Guixiang give?

Looking at the thickness of the red envelope, it would be decent if it contained eight or nine hundred yuan.

To think that the relatives from the Sun Family side and her friends all started at two thousand yuan.

What was a few hundred yuan?

Was her family short of this small amount of money?

With this thought, Lin Guimei smiled and pushed Lin Guixiang’s red envelope back to her, "Big sister, we’re all family, and family shouldn’t be giving red envelopes to each other. It’s too tacky. Besides, you and Xiao Wu also have a hard time financially, so you should keep the money for yourself."

Since it was a red envelope she had taken out to give away, Lin Guixiang naturally didn’t plan to take it back, "Gui Mei, Xiao Wu and I are not short of money right now, what’s given to you is for you to keep."

Lin Guimei was still adamant about not accepting it.

Accepting such a small red envelope, Lin Guixiang might not find it embarrassing, but she certainly did.

With no other choice, Lin Guixiang could only put the red envelope she had prepared back in her bag.

Mother Zhao watched the two of them, then spoke up, "Gui Mei, you won’t even accept Guixiang’s red envelope, so does that mean you don’t plan to accept Qiangzi and Cuinong’s red envelope either?"

Mother Zhao couldn’t be happier if Lin Guimei didn’t accept the red envelope.

A free meal.

How nice.

Seeing her mother acting like this, Zhao Cuinong initially wanted to intervene, but after some thought, considering Lin Guimei was not any better, she followed her mother’s lead.

Fighting magic with magic.

Pretty good.

Look at Mother Zhao, looking so out of place.

Lin Guimei subtly furrowed her brows, yet still said with a smile, "Aunt Zhao, you are an elder. The fact that you’ve come to our housewarming party is already giving us a lot of face, how could we take your money! Besides, we’re all family, it’s too impersonal to talk about money."

Mother Zhao was not about to be courteous with Lin Guimei, smiling as she put the red envelope back into her pocket, "Well, if that’s the case, Gui Mei, I won’t be polite with you."

Lin Guimei nodded, inviting Lin Guixiang and Lin Wu to sit and bringing over some delicious candies, "Big sister, Xiao Wu, these are candies Shan Shan’s aunt brought back from abroad. You can’t get them in Qing City. Have some more."

As she spoke, Lin Guimei grabbed a handful of candies and stuffed them into Lin Guodong’s pocket, "Jelly, have some more too."
