I'm dressed up as the timid eldest daughter, and the whole family has to listen to me!

Seeing that Granny Liu looked unwell, Madam Li quickly smiled and placed a piece of meat in Granny Liu's bowl.

“Mother-in-law, please don’t take it to heart. My sister is straightforward and has a fiery temper, just like a child. She doesn’t mean any harm. Try this meat. I specially ordered the kitchen to simmer it for more than three hours. It’s so tender that it melts in your mouth, and it’s not fishy or greasy at all.”

Seeing that Madam Li had spoken so eloquently, Granny Liu could only nod helplessly. She glanced at Li Feng, who stood to the side with a disdainful expression, then picked up a piece of meat from her bowl and took a bite. It was indeed delicious, but she couldn't offer any words of appreciation, so she could only nod and smile repeatedly.

"Yes, this meat is indeed delicious. We can't stew meat this well in the village, and we don't have the time or inclination to do so. Stewing a pot of meat for three hours would require too much firewood."

Li Feng snorted coldly.

"That's right. Can your country folk's food compare to the food in our mansion? You've really brought good fortune to your son. He's been able to eat such good food in his life. He's lived a worthwhile life."

Li Shuer, who was sitting to the side, stiffened upon hearing this. She glanced awkwardly at the restless Granny Liu, then smiled and said:

"Auntie, don't talk about those things. If it weren't for my mother-in-law, I wouldn't have met such a good man as Songchuan, would I? In any case, Songchuan grew up in a farming family, and my mother-in-law has raised him very well."

Li Feng glared at Li Shu'er.

"You silly girl, I knew you grew up in a sweet environment and were so innocent. You're already calling her 'Auntie' before the wedding is even officially off. Are we that eager to please her?"

Seeing Li Feng's relentless pursuit, Madam Li couldn't help but sigh.

"Feng'er, stop talking nonsense. I'm getting angry if you keep doing this. The marriage is already arranged, and the two children will be getting married tomorrow. Is it wrong to call her mother-in-law now? Stop arguing here and eat your food. Let's finish eating early so we can go see the opera performance later. Your brother specially selected two operas that you like to hear today. Stop talking about those things and eat your food."

Seeing that her sister-in-law had said that, Li Feng pouted, lowered her head, and went back to eating.

Seeing that Li Feng had finally stopped making things difficult for her, Granny Liu breathed a long sigh of relief. Now, looking at the delicious food before her, she suddenly felt a surge of appetite.

Seeing Granny Liu swallow hard as she looked at the braised pork knuckle in front of her, Madam Li frowned slightly. She knew Granny Liu was a peasant who hadn't seen much of the world, but her gleaming eyes at the sight of food were indeed embarrassing for the Li family. So Madam Li could only urge everyone to eat.

"Everyone, eat more, don't put down your chopsticks, the food will get cold and won't taste good."

Madam Li couldn't bear to see Granny Liu staring at the braised pork knuckle with such gleam in her eyes, so she pushed the pork knuckle towards Granny Liu, then picked up a large piece of meat and placed it in Granny Liu's bowl, saying with a smile:

"You must be exhausted from your journey. You must be starving by now. Mother-in-law, please eat more."

Seeing that Madam Li was treating her so warmly, Granny Liu stopped holding back and started eating heartily.

Even Li Shuer frowned at their eating habits. Li Feng, sitting to the side, looked at Madam Li with disdain, gestured towards Granny Liu, and whispered to Madam Li:

“Sister-in-law, look at the way this person eats! She’s really disgracing our Li family. I was going to give her a good talking to earlier, but you stopped me. I was just afraid she’d take advantage of me. If she keeps coming to our Li family to freeload after her son marries in, we’ll be driven crazy by her!”

Madam Li sighed, reached out and patted Li Feng's hand, shook it helplessly, and whispered:

"How could I not know what kind of people they are? They're just from farming families and don't have much manners. But our daughter likes that Su boy, and besides, I think he's a nice guy. So, as long as we're polite to these relatives, it's fine. Even if they come to us for money later, it's not a big deal. As long as the young couple can live a good life, that's all that matters."

Li Feng pouted.

"No matter what, I look down on this family. My daughter can't marry into a family like that in the future."

Fearing that saying too much might attract Liu Pozi's attention, Madam Li patted Li Feng's hand, signaling her to stop talking.

After everyone finished eating, Madam Li led them to the stage in the backyard to watch a play. As for the wedding arrangements for tomorrow, the stewards and servants would take care of them.

Looking at the scene before her, Madam Qin couldn't help but mutter to herself,

"The way those wealthy and powerful families handle things is so impressive. Look at how they hired an opera troupe to come to their house when they were engaged. They had them perform and sing. Now that they're married, they're hiring another opera troupe. How much money will that cost?"

“Sister-in-law, you’re too short-sighted. This little bit of money is nothing to the Li family. It’s just a drop in the ocean. People like them care about appearances. You can just quietly enjoy it.”

Qin glared at Lin, pouting unhappily. This time, Granny Liu didn't let Su Tao come with her to the wedding. Qin felt indignant, but she didn't dare to say anything. Right now, she didn't want to cause trouble at the wedding. If she really made a scene, no one would be there to help her. After thinking about it, Qin gritted her teeth and swallowed her anger.

She came along to attend the fourth brother's wedding, not thinking about anything else but wanting to eat more good food, broaden her horizons, and pack some delicious food for Su Tao to take back with her when she left, so that Su Tao could also enjoy a good meal.

Seeing that Qin ignored her, Lin felt bored and pulled Su Qingsong aside to eat and watch the play.

After finishing the wedding arrangements, Su Songchuan rushed over to see Granny Liu and the others.

"Mother, when are you coming over? I've been busy arranging things for tomorrow, but I finally had some free time, so I thought I'd come and see you."

Seeing her son dressed so neatly and with his hair combed so smartly, Granny Liu couldn't contain her joy. She grabbed Su Songchuan's hand and said excitedly:

"Fourth brother, you must have been very busy these past few days. Sit down and have a good talk with your mother. I haven't seen you for a while and I've missed you dearly. Look at you, you look so different in these fine clothes. Clothes really do make the man. Are you comfortable staying at the Li family's house? Have they been giving you any trouble?"
