Chapter 102: Provocation
After the wedding banquet began.
There were dancers, singers, musicians, and face-changing performers. It was very lively.
Ying Sisi watched and ate. After all the performances were finished, she and Qin Yanci were arranged to toast at each table.
After a round, the wedding banquet was almost over. Relatives who were in a hurry had left.
Li Junlu was also planning to go home. He told her, “Sisi, your aunt and I are leaving. Be good at your in-laws' place. Be diligent. Don't be willful, okay?”
Ying Sisi's heart turned cold.
As a father, he didn't think of being a strong backing for his daughter. He only cared about using his daughter to please her in-laws.
If he ever met in-laws who were overbearing, they would be derelict in their duty if they didn't ruthlessly grind her down.
How could there be such a foolish person?
She endured her annoyance and replied softly. “Got it.”
Li Junlu nodded in satisfaction and greeted father Qin before leaving.
Song Hanmei was concerned about the wedding gift money. “Aren't we going to split the wedding gift money?”
“Qin's family will arrange to give it to us.”
Song Hanmei said, “What if they don't arrange it? Then the money will belong to Qin's family.”
“If you're worried, you can stay here and guard it.”
Song Hanmei stopped talking.
Li Junlu snorted and walked away.
Li Yuwei chased after him. “Mom, aren't you going to the new house?”
“What am I going to do there? Look at their sewing machine, TV, and radio?” Song Hanmei was filled with resentment when she thought about how those things didn't belong to her. Her eyes lit up. “You said Qin Yanci isn't your type. Have you seen any of his friends that you like? I think that guy named Lu Qu is pretty good-looking. He's tall and thin, fair and clean. I heard he's a college student. His family is well-off too. If you like him, I can find someone to match you up.”
Li Yuwei said, “I told you, don't meddle in my affairs.”
Birds of a feather flock together.
How many good people could there be among Qin Yanci's friends?
In the last life, she had heard about several of his friends who cheated after they got married.
Song Hanmei angrily walked away.
Li Yuwei grabbed her cousin from the Song family and, after the wedding banquet was over, mingled with Qin's relatives and tried to follow them into the family housing complex.
She was stopped just as she walked out of the restaurant lobby.
“Yuwei.” Ying Sisi greeted her. “Where are you going? That's not the way home.”
Li Yuwei froze. She said provocatively in front of everyone, “Is the wedding night not welcome?”
If she refused, Qin's relatives would think that the sisters didn't get along.
And they would think that Sisi was petty.
“Of course you're welcome.” Sisi smiled. You're trying to dig a hole for me, aren't you? I won't fall for it. “A-Ci, can you have someone give Yuwei a ride?”
Qin Yanci hated Li Yuwei the most. He reluctantly agreed because Ying Sisi asked. “Okay. Lu San, please.”
“Don't be so polite. Miss Li, please.”
Li Yuwei refused. “No need, I'll take a ride by myself.” If her relatives saw her on the way, her mom would hear about it and she would start matchmaking again. It's so annoying.
Ying Sisi said, “Yuwei, go to the courtyard. A-Ci and I are going back to the courtyard.”
Li Yuwei said, “…Aren't you going to the new house?”
Ying Sisi said, “Not yet.”
Li Yuwei secretly laughed. So, the house in the family housing complex is a way to appease Sisi, right?
I told you, mother Qin couldn't possibly agree to Qin Yanci moving out.
She agreed with a happy “okay” and went to the courtyard with her cousin from the Song family.
When they got there.
Qin Yanci and Sisi were sitting in the side room, eating a bowl of glutinous rice balls together.
The matchmaker beside them said auspicious words. “Glutinous rice balls, glutinous rice balls, round and round. Love each other year after year, know each other year after year.”
