The evil mother-in-law does not whitewash, she only abuses her children

Chapter 696 Sincerity is far more important than dowry

I thought that Gu Jingzhe and Lu Zhaozhao would live in the city after they returned home.

Three days later, the two came back.

Lu Zhaozhao told Tong Huaqiong that she liked living in Qinghe Bay.

Her brother was studying and her grandfather was doing business outside, so she lived alone most of the time. Therefore, she liked the hustle and bustle and longed for family life.

Tong Huaqiong looked at Lu Zhaozhao's coquettish face and thought that it was no wonder that she was so controlled by Tong Dajiao's family in her previous life. It was not that she was easy to bully, but that she really longed for the lack of family affection.

Even Liu Yue'e was able to cheat a lot of things from her in her previous life. It's not that she is naive and easy to be deceived, but those good things for others are not worth mentioning to her.

She exchanged insignificant things for Liu Yue'e's jokes and flattery.

"You can stay here if you want." Tong Huaqiong said, "It's your home anyway, you can stay here as long as you want."

But they can't stay there for long, as Gu Jingzhe will soon take Lu Zhaozhao to Shengjing.

After Gu Jingzhe's marriage was completed, Chen Sufen returned to Taohua Dessert Bakery.

Liu Yue'e hurried to Pingchuan Jufulai. She originally wanted to rest in Qinghe Bay for a while, but when Lu Zhaozhao lifted the dowry, she was stimulated and wanted to return to work immediately.

There is no way. Lu Zhaozhao has the support of the Lu family and will definitely be her mother-in-law’s first daughter-in-law in the future.

She has no support from her natal family, so she can only rely on herself. If she wants her mother-in-law to get more property in the future, she has to show her abilities.

Tong Huaqiong also didn't expect that Lu Zhaozhao's marriage would promote the conflict between her daughter-in-law.

Lu Zhaozhao was not idle in Qinghewan. The Lu family business she was in charge of would send her account books from time to time. She would look at the account books and get advice from the business operators. She would talk about business with Tong Huaqiong on a daily basis. In her free time, she would go shopping in Yanguan Town with Gu Taohua, Gu Xiaoxue, Tong Pandi and others, and would also go to the fields to look at the crops and pick fruits in the mountains.

Life is busy but enjoyable.

Ever since Lu Zhaozhao came back from the provincial capital, Gu Honglian has been constantly making her presence felt in front of her.

Praising Lu Zhaozhao's beautiful clothes, praising Lu Zhaozhao's beautiful hairstyle... In short, praising and flattering her in various ways.

Lu Zhaozhao found that this little aunt was overly concerned and enthusiastic about her.

Finally one day, Lu Zhaozhao couldn't help but ask, "Aunt, do you have something to talk to me about?"

Gu Honglian bit her lip.

Isn’t it said that Lu Zhaozhao is naive?

How come she had been fawning on her for so many days but she didn't give her anything?

She saw with her own eyes that Lu Zhaozhao rewarded Su Qing, Lei Po and other maids from time to time.

He was so generous.

When she praised Lu Zhaozhao's beautiful hairpin, shouldn't Lu Zhaozhao take it off and give it to her?

When she cried and said that the satin Lu Zhaozhao gave her was pawned by her second sister-in-law, shouldn't Lu Zhaozhao give her another one?

No, apart from accompanying her in her sadness and comforting her with a few words, Lu Zhaozhao had no intention of giving her anything at all.

Lu Zhaozhao finally took the initiative to ask her.

Since Lu Zhaozhao asked, Gu Honglian planned to play the victim.

Second sister-in-law was right. She couldn't bring it up on her own initiative. She had to let Lu Zhaozhao give it to her on her own initiative.

Gu Honglian smiled and said, "It's nothing serious. I just want to ask how you feel about getting married."

Thinking of the feeling of getting married, Lu Zhaozhao suddenly blushed.

As for feelings, it’s natural to feel good.

Her mother-in-law treats her well, her sister-in-law treats her well, and her husband treats her even better.

But it's not easy to say this to her aunt. First, she is the elder. Second, she is not married yet. Third, she and her aunt are not close enough to be confidants.

Lu Zhaozhao thought for a moment and asked, "My aunt asked me how I feel about getting married. Does that mean my aunt has a lover and wants to get married too?"

Gu Honglian's face was filled with red clouds, and then she smiled. Otherwise, why did people say that Lu Zhaozhao was naive? She immediately changed the topic to her marriage.

She was racking her brains for how to introduce the topic, but now she could do it smoothly.

Speaking of Gu Honglian's marriage, Gu Honglian has a lot to say.

Gu Honglian said shyly, "Zhao Zhao, you really guessed it. I have indeed been discussing marriage since the beginning of the year."

Lu Zhaozhao asked curiously, "Could it be that the person being discussed for marriage is the one that little aunt likes? That would be great."

"He is a scholar, Jingzhe's senior brother, and his family lives in Bison Valley..."

Gu Honglian muttered about Fan Tong for a long time, then sighed and changed the subject, saying, "In our surrounding area, besides Jingzhe, Fan Tong is the only scholar. It's a privilege for me to marry him. In Qinghewan, no girl can marry a scholar. It's already gossip enough for a scholar to marry a peasant girl. In order to shut up those people, my parents wanted to prepare a dowry for me so that I can marry him as a scholar's wife. But you know the situation at home. My parents are short of money, and they haven't prepared a dowry for me yet."

Lu Zhaozhao realized that Gu Honglian was not here to discuss marriage with her, but to ask her for a dowry.

She said that she had almost no relationship with this aunt before she got married, but after she got married, the aunt would come up to her whenever she had the chance and try her best to curry favor with her.

It turns out that there is no gain without early action.

"Zhao Zhao, I really envy you for having such a large dowry. To be honest, I am not the only one who is envious. Except for the princess, who among the women in Dasheng would not be envious after seeing your dowry?"

After Gu Honglian finished speaking, she looked at Lu Zhaozhao with anticipation.

She just hoped that Lu Zhaozhao could understand what she meant and give her some dowry.

Lu Zhaozhao smiled and said, "I also think my dowry is quite large, but when it comes to dowry, I have to thank my grandfather. My grandfather started saving dowry for me when I was little, and he gave me everything he saved plus my mother's dowry when she was alive."

As Lu Zhaozhao spoke, her eyes turned red, her tone darkened, and she sighed, "If my mother could live, I would rather not have these dowries. Little aunt, I envy you for having a mother who loves you."

Gu Honglian was in a mess.

This is different from what she thought.

How did Lu Zhaozhao pin the dowry on the issue of whether or not there was a mother?

It is true that she has a mother who loves her, but her mother cannot give her a dowry, so what is there to envy?

Although Lu Zhaozhao has no mother, she has a huge fortune!

"Aunt, I'm happy for you that you can meet the person you like. I feel that a fortune of gold cannot compare to being with someone you truly love. Take Jingzhe and I for example. I don't care how much dowry Jingzhe gives me, and Jingzhe doesn't want my dowry either." Lu Zhaozhao said with burning eyes.

Gu Honglian shook her head. At this moment, she was not sure whether Lu Zhaozhao was really naive or just pretending.

Does Lu Zhaozhao, the young lady who grew up in a pile of money, understand that she doesn't care about millions of taels of gold because she really has it?

Lu Zhaozhao continued, "From what I heard from my aunt, Mr. Fan and you are in love with each other. I don't think he cares whether you have a dowry or not. After all, a true heart is much more important than a dowry. What do you think, aunt?"

Gu Honglian looked at Lu Zhaozhao as if he were a fool.

She said that she felt that what Lu Zhaozhao said was the same as if he hadn't said anything.

What's sincerity, what's mutual love, can these replace eating or drinking?

She coveted Fan Tong because he was a scholar, so it was impossible for Fan Tong not to covet her dowry.
