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

Tong Huaqiong took a walk from the pig farm, went to Taohua Dessert, and then went to Jufulai.

After inspecting all the shops, he took Gu Taohua home.

Gu Taohua is about to get married and there are many things that need to be prepared.

Now the entire Gu family is preparing for Gu Taohua's marriage.

When she entered the house, the maid who came out to greet her looked indescribable.

Tong Huaqiong asked, "What's wrong? What happened at home?"

The maid said, "Madam Su is here."

Mrs. Su?

"Which Madam Su?"

Tong Huaqiong didn't react for a moment to who Mrs. Su was.

After Tong Pandidi married Master Su, no one called her Madam Su. Her students called her Master's Wife, and outsiders called her Shopkeeper Little Tong.

The maid explained, "She is the wife of the Minister of Personnel, Lord Su."

Tong Huaqiong suddenly realized that it was Lu Yiner's aunt, Lu.

"Why is she coming to our house?" Gu Taohua muttered.

Tong Huaqiong was also a little confused.

Since Lu had plotted against Su Chengmin, Tong Huaqiong and Gu Taohua had no good impression of her and had no intention of having any contact with her.

Tong Huaqiong and Gu Taohua walked into the room. When Mrs. Lu saw them come in, she stood up.

"Mother-in-law." Mrs. Lu seemed even more enthusiastic than the host Tong Huaqiong.

Tong Huaqiong said: "My daughter Taohua has not yet married Su Chengmin, so we are not related yet."

Mrs. Lu was embarrassed and turned to look at Gu Taohua.

Gu Taohua completely ignored Lu.

Mrs. Lu pursed her lips and said with a stiff upper lip, "I'm here to discuss the marriage of our two children with Shopkeeper Tong."

Tong Huaqiong frowned and said, "Taohua's marriage has been discussed with Old Madam Min and General Weiwu."

Lu frowned.

Before she came, she was confident that she could impress Tong Huaqiong and Gu Taohua by having Su Chengmin and Gu Taohua get married in the Su family, and then Gu Taohua could persuade Su Chengmin, and the result that Old Lady Su wanted would be achieved.

Mrs. Lu didn't believe that Tong Huaqiong didn't want her daughter's wedding to be attended by no one from her in-laws.

She always believed that Old Lady Su and Su Shihang were not satisfied with Gu Taohua, so they did not send anyone to discuss the marriage. Su Chengmin had no choice but to let the Min family step in.

Before coming to the Gu family, she persuaded Old Lady Su and Su Chengmin to temporarily accept Gu Taohua as their daughter-in-law.

Mrs. Lu smiled and said, "Chengmin's marriage is a big deal. My old lady and master know that you have discussed it, but this marriage still needs the Su family to come forward. Master was angry that Chengmin didn't tell the family about the marriage proposal, but there is no overnight hatred between father and son. I said that since Taohua is our daughter-in-law, we must recognize her. Master has also thought it through these days. This marriage still needs to be held in the Su Mansion."

As Mrs. Lu spoke, she observed the expressions of Tong Huaqiong and Gu Taohua. She wondered why this mother and daughter were so calm.

Gu Taohua's wedding was not held at the Su Mansion, so outsiders had to say that the Su family did not recognize this daughter-in-law. How could a daughter-in-law who was not recognized by the Su family mix in the social circle?

Mrs. Lu's words were quite skillful, taking all the credit for the Su family accepting Gu Taohua on herself.

Mrs. Lu didn't know that Su Chengmin had already shown his affection to Tong Huaqiong before the Spring Festival, but Tong Huaqiong was too lazy to acknowledge the marriage.

Tong Huaqiong said, "Chengmin has a house, Taohua also has a house, it doesn't matter where we hold it, or at least at the Min family's, so Lord Su and the old lady won't have to worry about it."

The smile on Mrs. Lu's face froze.

Tong Huaqiong refused to accept the challenge.

Mrs. Lu forced a smile and said, "How can we hold it at the Min family? Chengmin is a member of the Su family, not the Min family. If my master wasn't present at his wedding, who knows what would happen outside. Chengmin doesn't care. He and the Su family are connected as if broken bones. He should always think about Taohua. Outsiders will only fabricate the conflict between him and the Su family and blame Taohua. People who don't know the inside story always do this, always like to put all the blame on women. My old lady and master have thought about it and feel that it is better to hold the wedding at the Su Mansion. They both wanted to come to your house to discuss this matter in person, but they haven't been feeling well recently, so they asked me to discuss it with Manager Tong."

"Shopkeeper Tong, you are Taohua's mother. They are just children and don't know the seriousness of the situation. You have to be there to guide them."

Mrs. Lu brought up the reputations of Su Chengmin and Gu Taohua.

What Lu said is not without reason. After all, the saying “There are no parents who are not wrong” has its supporters in every era, especially in ancient times when filial piety was the most important thing in the world.

If Su Chengmin and Gu Taohua don't let the Su family show up to get married, there will definitely be a lot of discussion outside. Some people with a philanthropic heart will label Su Chengmin and Gu Taohua as unfilial.

But if you want to be unfilial, then be unfilial, so you don’t have to go to the Su Mansion and suffer for the reputation of being filial.

Anyway, Su Chengmin had already made the plan to cut ties with the Su family, so he didn't care about his reputation.

Gu Taohua didn't care either.

Tong Huaqiong said, "Master Su, you're worrying too much. Since you said Su Chengmin is a member of the Su family after all, then the Su family shouldn't care about their reputation. Does the Su family still have a good reputation outside? Master Su's reputation is either a reputation for divorcing his wife and remarrying, or a reputation for abandoning his wife and children. In any case, neither reputation is good. It's okay to have too many lice, so a reputation for a father-son feud is not a big deal."

Lu was choked.

Tong Huaqiong is so disrespectful.

Gu Taohua couldn't help but say, "Master Su didn't think it was bad for his reputation to raise Cheng Min in the Min family since he was a child, so why do you say it's bad for Cheng Min's reputation to get married in the Min family? Outsiders have sharp eyes. They will only say that Master Su is a delinquent who doesn't even want to hold his son's wedding in the Su family. It's your reputation that's being damaged, not ours. What should we care about? It's you who are the ones who care."

"And you keep talking about discussing the marriage, but where's the money? Where's the betrothal gift? You come here to discuss it when you have nothing? How can you be considered sincere just by talking? Chengmin and I have already discussed the marriage and the date is set, so why are you still discussing it? You are just trying to use your reputation to threaten me and get me to convince Chengmin to hold the wedding at the Su Mansion. If you gave me money, land, and shops, I would consider it. You give me nothing, I can't even taste the sweetness, so why should I convince Chengmin to run to the Su Mansion to save face for you?"

Tong Huaqiong couldn't help but want to applaud Gu Taohua.

This is so satisfying.

Mrs. Lu opened her mouth.

No wonder her master and mother-in-law did not approve of Su Chengmin marrying Gu Taohua. He was too sharp-tongued and showed no mercy to others.

Gu Taohua tilted her head and stretched out her hand to Mrs. Lu, saying frankly, "Lord Su and Old Madam Su sent you here to discuss a marriage. You really didn't bring me any gifts, did you?"

"Grandmother Min and my uncle gave me money for the shop and also gave me Madam Su's dowry."

Mrs. Su was naturally referring to Min Baozhen.

Mrs. Lu was deeply hurt by what Mrs. Su said.

Tong Huaqiong said, "Taohua is speaking the truth. Now the wedding day is approaching. To be honest, when I saw you coming, I thought Lord Su was feeling his fatherly responsibility and asked you to give my Taohua a betrothal gift. After all this time, you haven't offered a penny, and you want Taohua to go to the Su Mansion as a daughter-in-law to serve you and your family. We definitely don't agree to that."

Lu: “…”
