Chapter 1184: Chapter 1184: Thoughts of Scolding Someone Have Emerged

Lin Caisang: "..."

Brother Molian, your skin is so thick... How come I feel it’s even thicker than the Zhou family’s?

However, she was quite willing to take this opportunity to go to the Zhou family and cause them a loss of face.

These past days, the people of the Zhou family hadn’t stopped making trouble for their Lin Family. If she didn’t use this chance to give them a taste of their own medicine, was she supposed to wait until after Yurui married into the Zhou family?

By then, who in the Zhou family would have time to deal with them? Yurui alone would be enough to handle them.

...

The next evening.

Although the wedding was put together in quite a hurry, with the help of the county magistrate’s office, the Zhou family actually managed to set up more than a dozen tables and made it look quite decent.

In a nutshell, Elder Mr. Zhou didn’t have the guts to lose face in front of the county magistrate’s office.

And the villagers from Ya Village, many of whom were invited by Elder Mr. Zhou, filled up the dozen or so tables with not a single stool to spare, turning Elder Mr. Zhou’s complexion truly as black as the bottom of a pot.

The reason, well...

"Hmph, these guys, they really dare to come!"

Madam Zhou’s face naturally wasn’t any better as she looked at the Ya Village villagers with greasy mouths full of food.

She had thought that her son’s wedding would be so respectable with all kinds of food like fish, meat, chickens, ducks, and so on, that these villagers would surely bring something decent as a token of their good wishes, right?

Who would have thought that these people from Ya Village, one by one, were all thick-faced, and nothing they brought was any good.

Some brought a piece of coarse cloth, just a yard of it; some just brought a couple of eggs to make up the numbers; others simply picked some green veggies and radishes from their fields, placed them in the kitchen, and considered it their gift money.

At the sight of it, she really felt like cursing at someone.

"Why are you stopping me? Didn’t you see the faces of these people?"

She looked at her husband sitting by her side with a hooked lip and a disdainful glance.

If he hadn’t been by her side holding her back, she would definitely have chased each and every one of them out. Was the food from the Zhou family meant to be freely eaten by these paupers?

"You shut your mouth! Don’t you see what day it is today?!" Old Master Zhou glanced at her coldly, reminding her.

If it weren’t for him keeping watch, this woman might have caused who knows what trouble. The county magistrate’s office wanted the occasion to be respectable; even if these villagers didn’t bring anything, he felt that his own face was brightened by their attendance.

But of course, the several people in his household felt that their own face was very important. Did they really expect the people of Ya Village to bring several taels of silver each as congratulatory gifts?

Tsk!

"If you mess up the marriage relationship with the county magistrate’s office, see if I won’t divorce you and send you back to your mother’s home!" he threatened.

"You—"

Madam Zhou bit her lip hearing his words, her eyes seething as she glared at him.

Divorce? He sure has wishful thinking!

Now that Yurui had married into the Zhou family, although she didn’t know how much dowry this daughter-in-law had brought, it was certainly not going to be a small amount. She naturally intended to stay and enjoy her good fortune!

"You stop talking nonsense. To divorce, you need to see if I agree!"

She didn’t take Old Master Zhou’s words to heart, feeling that such talk was just her husband trying to threaten her—nothing serious.

"You stay here; I’m going to have a look."

With that, she stood up and glanced over the crowded courtyard, intending to leave.

"Where are you going?"

Seeing her about to leave, Old Master Zhou hurriedly tried to reach out and hold her back.
