Chapter 35: Madam Liu wants to show off her wealth

Looking at the glittering gold jewellery in the box, Madam Liu was so surprised that she was speechless.

Liu Dalang calmed down, "Yingyue, is it fake? Can you tell the real thing from the fake?"

Liu Yingyue was so scared that she turned around quickly and looked at Qin Yiran.

Noticing that Qin Yiran looked calm, he called Liu Dalang "Brother" instead.

But Liu Dalang did not respond and turned his head away.

Liu Yingyue said speechlessly, "Brother, of course I can tell whether it's real or not. When I bought it, I saw the shopkeeper putting it into the box. How could it be fake? Brother, you are talking nonsense. If it's fake, aren't you afraid that I will sue you?"

The whole family took turns humiliating Qin Yiran, but Qin Yiran was unusually calm. Liu Yingyue felt uneasy.

"So what? You've spent all your money today. When you marry into the Qin family one day, we'll ask you to pay back your debt." Liu Dalang snorted coldly.

"Qin Dalang, doesn't your family owe a lot of money? Where did you get the money to buy these jewelry? Don't tell me it was borrowed. Ask my daughter Yingyue to pay it back when she gets married in the future. Let me be frank with you. My daughter has never done hard labor. Although she spins, weaves, and embroiders, she does it for fun. We never force her to do it." Madam Liu also said coldly.

Liu Jiang sighed and said, "Qin Dalang, borrowing money to buy jewelry is really inappropriate."

Liu Yingyue frowned slightly and looked at Qin Yiran, "Qin Yiran, the money for buying jewelry..."

Qin Yiran did not say where the money for the jewelry came from.

Today, Qin Yiran's family members pressed him for answers, and if he didn't tell them, he might not be able to leave.

"I hunted a few preys last year, but I didn't receive the debt. I received the debt the day before yesterday, but it was not a loan." Qin Yiran said.

Liu Jiang looked at her mother-in-law and the man, breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile, "That's good, it's not owed. Mother, Zhu'er's father, it's not owed, don't ask Yingyue to pay it back."

Liu Dalang still sneered, "If Yingyue doesn't have to pay this debt, what about the other debts? I heard that your family still owes several hundred taels, right? Qin Dalang."

Why is it endless? Liu Yingyue sighed, "Brother!"

Are Qin Yiran's family members making things so difficult for her because they want her to die a more miserable death in the future?

Qin Yiran will hold a grudge!
"Of course, she doesn't have to pay it back. My grandfather and father will find a way to pay it back. Besides, I'm still here." Qin Yiran said calmly.

Liu Yingyue breathed a sigh of relief, walked over and tugged on Madam Liu's sleeve, "Mom, Yiran has expressed his opinion in public, can you please stop making things difficult for him?"

Madam Liu glared at her daughter and said, "You are speaking for him before you even get married. You will suffer in the future."

"No, Mom, Yiran won't make things difficult for me, right, Yiran?" Liu Yingyue turned around and smiled at Qin Yiran.

He was speaking for Qin Yiran, and also taking the opportunity to speak for her.

As long as she doesn't act like a troublemaker, Qin Yiran, you have no excuse to beat her to death, nor do you have any excuse to embarrass her family.

"Of course." Qin Yiran looked at Liu Yingyue and said.

"Hmph, that depends on your future performance. What's the point of talking about it now?" Madam Liu pushed Liu Yingyue into the house.

Liu Dalang took the donkey cart and snorted, "You still need to use my donkey cart, Qin Yiran, your family has to buy a donkey cart."

"Don't worry, brother. We have both donkey carts and horse carts." Qin Yiran still looked calm.

"That's good. I'll wait and see when the wedding comes." Liu Dalang drove the donkey away.

Liu Jiang looked embarrassed, waved at Qin Yiran, and closed the tall gate. Qin Yiran glanced at the gate and turned to leave. At this time, someone came over and called him softly, "Brother Qin, why are you doing this?"

Qin Yiran didn't look back or respond, but walked forward with his crutches.

Yang Yongcui didn't give up and chased after him, "The Liu family is humiliating you, Brother Qin, can't you see it?"

"Miss Yongcui, do you have any good suggestions?" Qin Yiran stopped and turned to look at Yang Yongcui.

Yang Yongcui shuddered at his cold gaze.

"Qin...Brother Qin, I...I don't have any suggestions. I just...feel aggrieved for Qin Dalang."

"It's me who's getting married, not Miss Yongcui. How do you know whether I'm aggrieved or happy?" Qin Yiran smiled.

Yang Yongcui sighed, "Brother Qin, your family is not rich, why did you buy such expensive jewelry? I heard that Gao Xiaolang only bought five taels of silver jewelry for Liu Xingyue. If Aunt Qin knew about it, wouldn't she blame you?"

"This is my family's business, so Miss Yongcui, please don't worry about it." After Qin Yiran said this, he ignored Yang Yongcui and left leisurely with his crutches.

Yang Yongcui blushed and felt angry and ashamed after hearing what Qin Yiran said.

She didn't understand why so many people liked a woman like Liu Yingyue!

Liu Yingyue is spoiled, doesn't do farm work, and has a bad temper, but the Qin family treats her like a treasure?

Madam Qin didn't despise her, and Qin Xiuzhu also fell in love with Liu Yingyue. The most important thing was that Qin Yiran actually bought such expensive jewelry for Liu Yingyue!

There is also Gao Xiaolangjun, who also complains that his family should not have broken off the engagement, and Luo Sian has always dreamed of marrying Liu Yingyue!

Why do the three most handsome men in the village all fall for Liu Yingyue? Is the world blind?
Yang Yongcui felt indignant and the more she thought about it, the more jealous she became of Liu Yingyue.
-
The Liu family's big room.

Main house.

Madam Liu held Liu Yingyue's jewelry box in her hands and looked at each piece of jewelry carefully. She smiled so much that the corners of her lips were almost cracked to her ears.

Because Liu Jiang kept praising the beauty of the jewelry and said that she had never seen a girl with such valuable jewelry.

"Apart from being a little poor and having a small house, the Qin family is very good to Yingyue. If she wears these pieces of jewelry when she gets married, everyone in the village will be envious." Liu Jiang said with a smile.

"It's a pity that I will have to wear a veil when I get married, and some people won't be able to see it." Wearing jewelry cannot be seen by the whole village, which is like walking in the night in fine clothes. Madam Liu felt regretful.

When the veil is lifted during the wedding ceremony, the husband’s family can see the jewelry, but the wife’s family cannot.

Except for a few people in her family, the people in the second room and the neighbors could not see it.

Madam Liu closed the jewelry box, pursed her lips, nodded to Liu Jiangshi and said, "Wife of Dalang, call your second aunt and Aunt Liu next door, and tell them that I have something to ask them."

Liu Jiang knew her mother-in-law too well. She was just trying to show off her wealth.

Liu Yingyue swapped marriages with the second wife's daughter. Because of this, her mother-in-law was so angry that she cried for several days and didn't sleep or eat well for several days.

As for the second wife, she was well-connected and would often come to the first wife's house and speak in a sarcastic manner. The mother-in-law was so angry that she had no place to vent her anger and got mad at her several times.

I got a box of jewelry today. Should I give it to the people in the second room to appease them? And show it off to the neighbors?
This is fifty taels of jewelry!

Even when Mr. Huang, the richest man in the village, married his daughter off, he never received such valuable jewelry. The Huang family's betrothal gift consisted of only three pieces of jewelry, which were worth no more than twenty taels in total.
