Farmer's wife: My husband came back and the house was in chaos

"Oh! Worthless cloth and... What cloth and pearl hairpins are you talking about? How much silver?! Who are you trying to fool?" Song Xiaoqin looked at Yao Qingnian's hands, her voice getting smaller and smaller. She saw that she was really holding a few pieces of cloth and a makeup box in her hands. They looked very valuable. It must be worth a few taels of silver.

"It's fine if aunt doesn't believe me. In that case, we won't eat at the banquet. Uncle, if there's nothing else, we'll leave first." Lu Huaijin said with regret.

"Huai Jin, don't go! You are my nephew. Today, with your uncle here, no one dares to let you go!" Liu Qinghe shouted angrily.

"Such fine cloth doesn't look cheap. It's not like he's a poor relative. How can a poor relative be so generous?"

"Yes, and look at that makeup box, it looks very expensive, how can ordinary people afford it?"

"They brought such expensive gifts, how could they eat and drink for free?"

The guests started talking again.

"Maybe they were just some rags found somewhere, and that's just a box. How could it be a pearl hairpin? But I heard that my eldest sister-in-law's daughter-in-law is a vicious woman who makes trouble at home all day long. How could she be so generous?" Song Xiaoqin whispered to the guests.

"Rags? Qinghe's wife, have you seen these rolls of cloth? I think this cloth is very popular nowadays. Ladies and girls in the city like to buy it to make clothes." said someone who knew the goods.

After hearing this, Yao Qingnian opened the box on the spot, revealing a pearl hairpin shining with silver light inside.

"Wow! It's so beautiful!" The guests' eyes widened immediately.

Song Xiaoqin looked in the direction of Yao Qingnian's hand and saw that this girl was not lying, there really was a pearl hairpin.

"Alas, even my aunt doesn't like such a beautiful pearl hairpin. I have no choice but to take it back and wear it myself. Huaijin, let's go. Poor relatives like us can't go in and eat and drink for free." Yao Qingnian said as he picked up the pearl hairpin and shook it in his hand.

"Okay, ma'am, let's go." Lu Huaijin said cooperatively.

Looking at those things, Song Xiaoqin's eyes lit up, and when she saw them about to leave, she quickly showed a flattering smile to stop them: "Huai Jin, Huai Jin's wife, I'm sorry, it's my aunt's shallow knowledge that has wronged you. I apologize to you. We are all family, so let's not talk about different things. Come in quickly!"

"Yes, Huai Jin, don't bother with your aunt. Today is Liu Yang's good day. Don't let outsiders laugh at you. Come in and sit down." Liu Qinghe glared at his wife unhappily, then spoke to Yao Qingnian and the others apologetically.

Lu Huaijin looked at Yao Qingnian, and the two looked at each other and nodded. He ignored Song Xiaoqin and handed the things in his hand to Liu Qinghe: "Okay, uncle."

"It's enough that you are here, but you also brought things. These things don't look cheap. Take them back!" Liu Qinghe felt embarrassed. When his brother-in-law injured his leg, his sister came back to ask him to borrow some money. Song's wife found out and tried every means to get the money back. Although he helped a few times in private, Song was in charge of the family and he was powerless, so he couldn't help much. He only visited his sister and brother-in-law a few times and helped send people to the city for medical treatment a few times. Later, after being discovered by Song, he didn't need to help anymore, as he was worried that they would rely on his family. As a result, the two families lost contact and had no exchanges. He remembered his sister in his heart, and took the opportunity of Liu Yang's marriage to send an invitation to his sister, asking her to come and share the good fortune. He didn't know how his brother-in-law's leg was. Liu Qinghe felt guilty, and was unwilling to accept such valuable things brought by his nephew.

"It's rare that the elder sister-in-law cares about her nephew, so I'll accept this thing on behalf of Yangyang. His wife is a girl from the city, and there are so many good things at home that they don't need this little bit. But since it's your kindness, I'll accept it reluctantly." Song Xiaoqin reached out to take the thing and held it in her arms, fearing that Yao Qingnian and the others would take it back.

Yao Qingnian rolled his eyes and thought to himself, this Song Xiaoqin is really a two-faced woman, she wants to take but then she despises it, if you have the guts, just don't accept it!

The guests despised her hypocritical behavior. If she had something, she was a nephew, and if she had nothing, she was a poor relative. Tsk tsk…

After Yao Qingnian entered the room, he casually took out a piece of silver and placed it on the gift table. The person who wrote the gift list shouted, "Liu's nephew Huai Jin, a gift of one or two taels of silver."

When the guests heard this, they cast their eyes on the couple again. If they were poor, what would they be? They had given several pieces of cloth and two silver hairpins, which were already worth a lot of silver. Unexpectedly, this gift was one or two taels of silver. This was too generous. Usually, the villagers gave a few pieces of cloth as gifts, and the more expensive ones were eggs or livestock, chickens and ducks, and then sealed a few or dozens of coins. The most was no more than a hundred coins, which was already very good. This one or two taels of silver was really rare in their countryside. I don't know what Qinghe's nephew does, but he is so generous.

When Song Xiaoqin heard this, she stopped being polite and enthusiastically arranged for Yao Qingnian and the others to sit down. She looked at the money instead of the people. Their gift today was so expensive that it really made the Liu family look good in front of the guests. Now, they dared not say that their son was not worthy of a daughter-in-law from the city! So her attitude changed 180 degrees, from contempt at the beginning to flattery now.

It turned out that her daughter-in-law was a girl from the city, and the betrothal gift alone cost their family more than ten taels of silver. Although they felt distressed, they thought about their daughter-in-law from the city and felt that the money was worth it. After all, it was not easy for a girl from the city to be willing to marry into the village, and it was also very rare in the village. Moreover, the girl's dowry was not small.

However, the people in the village gossiped that Liu Yang had no skills and his family background was very ordinary, so why would the girl like him? Therefore, before they got married, many people talked about and dissuaded them, saying that girls from the city were hard to keep and that they were not a good match, so they should make plans early and forget about the marriage.

But Liu Yang liked this girl and came home to make trouble every few days. Song Xiaoqin had no choice but to agree. She emptied her family's savings and went to the girl's house to propose marriage. Only then did she move the girl and she agreed to marry the silly boy from the family.

Moreover, she also heard that her daughter-in-law was a manager in a clothing shop in the city and had a considerable monthly salary!

So even though she minded the gossips of the women in the village, she was very happy in her heart that her son could marry such a capable girl. So today, she held her son's marriage in a grand manner just to shut up those people.
