The matter is settled, and Li Shi has no choice but to swallow this dumb loss silently.

It's useless to complain, it's better to save some foam.

In order to take care of the Zhu family and his own dignity, the Li family still gave Tong Chuchu two pairs of gold and jade heads, as well as a collar, a pair of bracelets, and a few small bits and pieces, which were delicate and ingenious.

In the past, when Tong Chuchu was in the Zhu family, the Li family treated her well, and the food was all good. Because Li likes her, he doesn't care about the amount of silver taels, and only raises her as half a daughter.

But now, Li Shi only felt that Tong Chuchu was an ungrateful little wolf cub, and he was extremely disgusted in his heart, not to mention spending money for her, even if he just gave her a penny, he felt that it was not worth it.

Li Shi is not a stingy person who loves money, but for the first time in his life, he is worried about spending money.

Mama Sun personally counted the congratulatory gifts, and then came over and replied: "Madam, the congratulatory gifts are all neat, and there are a lot of them." ”

Li Shi sighed lightly, feeling worthless in every way, so he said: "It's okay to get it together, and keep it." ”

Mama Sun responded, and said, "Ming'er's wedding banquet, should you bring more people by Madame's side?" ”

Li Shi said: "Who are you bringing?" With me, I have already given the Jia family enough face. Ming'er, you follow me, and choose a few handsome maids to follow. When the time comes, remember to be neat, don't break off, don't lose power. ”

Mama Sun nodded and said, "Madam, don't worry, the slave understands." ”

Early the next morning, Li had to get up early in the morning, dress up, and decorate as much as possible, and spent a lot of thought. She didn't want to surprise the four seats, she just wanted to steal the limelight of the Jia family.

Li Shi went out with Grandma Sun to count the hours, got into the carriage, and slowly went to Jia's house.

The Jia family's mansion is not far from the Zhu family, and it is only a matter of two pillars of incense to get there by car.

In front of Jia's house, it was already a crowded city, with cars coming and going, and it was very lively.

The door is spacious, the guests are continuous, Li Shi lifted the curtain, looked at the plaque above the main entrance, with gold paint on it and red silk on the bottom, which looked grand and festive.

Li had only been to Jia's house once before, and at that time, she was still young, only in her early twenties.

Li Shi took Grandma Sun's hand and slowly got out of the car, her toes had just touched the ground, and someone on the opposite side hurriedly greeted her.

The person who came was the steward of the Jia family, with a smile on his face, and first saluted the Li family, and said politely: "Mrs. Zhu, the little Jia Liu'er is the concierge of the Jia family." My old lady ordered the little one early in the morning to wait here, wait for the lady, and personally invite you in, please! ”

When Li Shi heard this, he was displeased, and he just thought that this Jia family was hypocritical, and since he valued it, he should come to greet him in person, instead of sending an inferior person to wait here.

Li Shi glanced at Na Jia Liu'er, there was no smile on his face, he made a straight face, and walked directly to the door.

Jia Liu'er had already prepared, knowing that this Mrs. Zhu was a master who was not easy to get along with, so she hurriedly lowered her head and followed, and said softly: "The old lady is talking to Mrs. In-laws......

Before he finished his words, Li Shi suddenly paused, turned around, and said with sharp eyes: "Who are the in-laws you are talking about?" ”

Jia Liu'er was taken aback by her, and hurriedly replied: "The little one is talking about the second young grandmother's maiden mother, Mrs. Tong Jiatong. Why, Mrs. Zhu, don't you know yet? My wife has been living here for three days. ”

When Li Shi heard this, his face instantly turned pale, and he clenched his hands, so angry that his shoulders trembled slightly.

Since Li Jiuniang came to Texas, she should have seen herself first, how could she not even say hello, but stayed at Jia's house as a guest with peace of mind.

Seeing this, Mama Sun hurriedly whispered: "Husband is relieved, you have to see each other to know what's going on." ”

Li Shi sneered and said lightly: "What else can it be?" Now that she has got her wish, she finally climbed on the big boat of the Jia family and made a good family affectionately, so naturally she won't pay attention to me, my sister-in-law. ”

When she said this, she didn't care that Jia Liu'er next to her would hear it.

Jia Liu'er lowered her head in interest, lowered her eyes, didn't hear it, bent over to lift the sedan curtain for Li Shi, and let her sit in the sedan chair.

Li Shi sat in a soft sedan chair and walked all the way to the Jia family's compound, passed through the corridor, and passed through two hanging flower gates before coming to the main courtyard.

The courtyard is full of red and bright festivity, with lights everywhere, and many brightly dressed maids are walking around busily, smiling in their eyes, faintly looking forward to the marriage ceremony that is about to begin.

Li Shi walked straight into the main room with Grandma Sun, her face was slightly gloomy, she didn't look at the maids around her, but those people were all staring at her in unison, each with their own thoughts.

The decoration of the Jia family's main room was exquisite and elegant, but Li Shi was not interested at all, her eyes scanned the room, and finally fell on the person who was dressed in bright red, slightly hooked the corners of her mouth, and let out an almost laugh.

I haven't seen her for a few years, Li Jiuniang doesn't look much different, but her body is slightly plump, her skin is still fair, her eyebrows and eyes are still gentle, but she is a little less green and a little more mature.

Li Jiuniang has been shy since she was a child, and when she sees a living person, she will blush just by saying a word. Therefore, Li always took her with him, and she was always obedient and willing to be a docile little tail.

When Li Jiuniang saw Li Shi, she couldn't help but subconsciously straighten her back, and then stood up and said, "Sister is here." ”

Old Madam Jia sat on the main seat, looked at the two sisters with a slight smile, and said in a meaningful tone: "Mrs. Zhu, you are here, welcome, you are a rare guest of our Jia family." ”

Li Shi turned his eyes to look at the old lady and continued to sneer: "Today is a big day, how can I not come?" Chu Chu is my niece, and I am very happy to see her marry so beautifully, happy for her, and happy for my dear ninth sister. ”

When Li Jiuniang heard this, the smile on her face froze.

At this moment, a clear and beautiful voice suddenly sounded, "Ancestor, this is Mrs. Zhu, it is really better to hear than to see, Mrs. has a good demeanor and is extravagant, and I will greet you again in Xia An's family." ”

The person who spoke was a beautiful young woman, wearing a long dress with water-red hibiscus makeup and satin, with exquisite makeup and gorgeous dress.

Mrs. Jia's right hand sat Li Jiuniang, and on the left hand sat her eldest grandson's daughter-in-law An, she was originally just sitting on the side, but when she saw Li Shi, she couldn't help but get up slowly, with a little smile at the corners of her eyes and eyebrows, lightly, without pretending to be familiar.

An is the wife of Jia Nanlin, the eldest of the Jia family, and she has been in the door for less than a year, and she is still a new daughter-in-law. She is smart, flexible, and very much loved by Mrs. Jia. An's background is also not high, but slightly better than Tong Chuchu.

Mrs. Jia chooses a daughter-in-law, and she never pays much attention to her family background, she pays more attention to her character and appearance.

She believes that a wise woman can take care of her husband, and a woman who is both smart and beautiful can take care of her husband and at the same time hold his heart.

Li Shi was asked to sit down, but Li Jiuniang was still standing in place, looking uncomfortable.

Although this time, she made up her mind to come to Texas, when she saw her sister Li, she still felt a little lacking in confidence.

Now, she must have become a traitor and a villain in her eyes. But, so what, for the sake of her daughter, she can't care so much.

Old Madam Jia could clearly feel the faint resentment between their sisters.

Both of them are more energetic in their hearts now. Li Shi suddenly thought about whether they should be given a chance to talk alone, so he simply proposed: "There is still some work to be done before the chapel." Does Mrs. Zhu want to go and see the bride? ”

Presumably, if Li Shi saw the glamorous Tong Chuchu, he would definitely feel even more depressed in his heart.

Li Shi was slightly stunned when he heard this, only to feel that Old Madam Jia was still bold. At this time, she would actually agree to let her go to see Tong Chuchu......

Li Shi, who was full of anger, naturally would not give up this opportunity to taunt Tong Chuchu, she got up and responded: "The old lady is careful, I just want to say a few words to that child." ”

Mrs. Jia said with a smile: "Then let the in-laws take you over, and say a few words of self-consideration." ”

It stands to reason that Tong Chuchu should not stay in Jia's house when he gets married today, but should be carried in by a sedan chair.

However, the Tong family is thousands of miles away, Tong Chuchu can only marry in Dezhou, and the Zhu family is obviously unwilling to let Tong Chuchu marry at the door of his own house, so the Jia family can only take Tong Chuchu out of the side door first, and then make a detour in Dezhou City, and finally send it to the gate of the Jia family and worship to get married.

It seems tedious, but it's actually simple, but it just takes some effort and manpower.

Li Jiuniang hung her heart and went to the new house with Li. When she reached the door, she suddenly turned to look at Li Shi and said softly: "Seventh sister, no matter what you say, today is a day of great joy, please don't say anything ugly......

Seeing that she was finally willing to speak to herself, Li Shi sneered, "What? Now do you know that you are afraid? Are you afraid that I will beat her and scold her, or will I cut her face in a fit of anger that will make me lose face? ”

When Li Jiuniang heard this, she couldn't help but tremble lightly and said, "Seventh sister, how can you ......?"

Li Shi didn't wait for her to finish, then raised his hand to stop it, and his tone was as cold as ice.

"Don't those useless hearts. You don't care about the dignity of the Zhu family, but I can't ignore it...... Let's go inside, don't miss the auspicious time. ”

The bead curtain was slowly lifted, and Li Shi looked up, only to see a group of maids surrounding Tong Chuchu in auspicious clothes, carefully arranging her clothes, shoes, and the dazzling phoenix crown on her head.

After Li Shi and Li Jiuniang entered, those maids stepped forward one after another to salute and greet them.

Tong Chuchu saw Li's smiling face through the dressing mirror, raised his eyebrows slightly, and then got up with a smile and said, "Aunt is here." ”

Li Shi was not polite to her, went straight to the table and sat down, looked at the various items on the table, and said with a faint smile: "It seems that the Jia family is very attentive to you." You're blessed. ”

These are all essential things for the new house, there are wedding cakes, seasonal clothes, rouge gouache, and dragon and phoenix candles, they are all neatly placed, and they are all pasted with festive red words.

Tong Chuchu smiled when he heard this, and was carefully helped back to the chair by the maids. "Chu Chu's creation today is all thanks to my aunt's blessing."

She said this pun, and Li Shi naturally understood.

"You can't say that, it's still your own assertiveness and ability to get such a good family business." Li Shi is also thorny in his words, which makes people feel pricked in their ears when they listen to it.

Seeing this, Li Jiuniang took a step forward nervously, and persuaded in a low voice: "Today is a big day, Chu Chu, you are about to get married, come and pour a cup of tea for your aunt, just thank her for her care and care for you these days." ”

Although Li Jiuniang feels sorry for her daughter, she doesn't want to stiffen her relationship with the Li family, they are sisters in the end...... However, although her wish was good, Li Shi did not appreciate it.

Li Shi waved his hand and said, "That can't be done." Chu Chu is about to become the second young grandmother of the Jia family, how can she kneel down and pour me tea...... I originally wanted to eat a cup of her daughter-in-law's tea, but unfortunately, the fate of our mother and mother was too thin, but this is good, but it has fulfilled the beautiful marriage between her and the second young man of the Jia family. ”

A beautiful marriage...... Tong Chuchu sneered in his heart, only to feel that Li Shi was really sarcastic.

People outside say that she is too greedy for money to be willing to marry Jia Xiandong, a stupid young master, but unfortunately, her beauty has been wasted in vain, which is regrettable, and people can't help but want to be patient and wait to see the joke......

Tong Chuchu ignored Li's refusal, but slowly got up, picked up a Fushou Ruyi tea bowl, then knelt on the ground, and said respectfully to Li's family: "I respect you for this cup of tea." If there is no aunt to help, Chu Chu will not have today's scenery, Chu Chu is grateful, with this cup of tea to talk about the heart, but also let you smile. ”

Li Shi stared at her delicate face and bright eyes, smiled faintly, took the tea but didn't drink it, just put it aside, and only said lightly: "Today is your good day, I am happy to see you, your mother is also happy, I naturally feel happy." However, as your elder, I still have to kindly remind you that you should not be too desperate in life and do things, and remember to leave yourself a way out. Some things, on the surface, look delicate and gorgeous, but in fact they are empty inside, even if they are snatched in their hands, they will end up with nothing......"

When Tong Chuchu heard this, his face changed slightly, but he continued to smile and said, "Chu Chu, thank you aunt for your careful reminder." ”

Li Shi smiled, got up and said, "It's good that you understand, okay, it's not too early, you should continue to prepare, I won't stay longer." ”

When Li Jiuniang heard this, she hurriedly said: "Seventh sister, I'll send you ......"

Li Shi shook his head and said, "It's better to accompany your daughter more, in another hour, she will not be a member of the Jia family." ”

Li Jiuniang's heart trembled slightly, and she suddenly stopped walking and didn't walk more.

Li Shi slowly got up, and Tong Chuchu flicked his sleeves and told the maids to avoid it.

She has some things she wants to say to her mother, and some of her own words before marriage, she can only say to her, not to others.

Li Jiuniang and the other maids closed the door, and then walked behind Tong Chuchu, pressed her shoulders with both hands, and let her sit in front of the mirror slowly, and a thin layer of mist instantly surged in her eyes.

Seeing this, Tong Chuchu's eyes moved slightly, and he hurriedly said, "What is my mother crying about?" I'm so beautiful and decent now, what else do you have to be sad about? ”

When Li Jiuniang heard this, she hurriedly nodded the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief and said, "This is the rule." When a woman gets married, someone must leave some tears to be auspicious. ”

Tong Chuchu said: "Really? But even if it's a rule, I don't want to see my mother cry...... Today is a good day for me, no need for anyone to cry. ”

Li Jiuniang nodded hurriedly, held back her tears, and said softly: "Okay, my mother knows, my mother won't cry." ”

Tong Chuchu then took a deep breath, turned his head, looked at himself in the mirror left and right, and asked softly, "Mother, am I good-looking?" ”

Li Shi responded with a smile: "Of course you look good, you are the best-looking bride in the world." ”

Her daughter is so beautiful, but I don't know, can her future son-in-law cherish her beauty?

Thinking of this, Li Jiuniang's heart trembled a few times, and she couldn't help but say the words that pressed in her heart for a while: "Daughter, this family affair is still wronged by you after all, my mother really doesn't know, is it right that I agreed?" ”

When Tong Chuchu heard this, he raised his eyebrows and said, "Mother, please don't say such things." This family business is of my own volition, and it has nothing to do with your decision. ”

Come to think of it, even if Li Jiuniang didn't agree at the beginning, she would stick to the end.

Li Jiuniang asked, "Daughter, don't you really regret it?" ”

The corners of Tong Chuchu's mouth rose slightly: "Of course I don't regret it, on the contrary, I feel very fortunate that the second young master can take a fancy to me, so that I can have no worries about food and clothing, and be rich and expensive from now on." Mother, you remember, the person who should regret it will not be me, but the Zhu family...... Because sooner or later, I will make them regret how they were blinded and no one ...... in the first place."

Once she becomes the second young grandmother of the Jia family, then she is qualified to be on an equal footing with the Zhu family, and even, she can have the opportunity to press them under her feet, so that Li Shi and Shen Yuechen know who is the last person to have the last laugh?

Now, her anger towards the Zhu family has been transformed into a strong fighting spirit by her.

The Jia family and the Zhu family are fierce rivals, and if she wants revenge, the Jia family can provide her with everything she needs, everything she needs......

When he visited the church, Jia Xiandong, who didn't understand the world, had been pulling the big red flower on his chest with impatience on his face, humming and chirping, which caused many people to laugh.

The bride next to him persuaded and coaxed him, and finally quieted him down.

The two newcomers stumbled and worshipped heaven and earth, and gave tea to Mrs. Jia.

From beginning to end, Li Shi looked at them quietly, smiling and his eyes cold.

Although the people around them were constantly blessing them, Li Shi thought the complete opposite in his heart.

It is completely conceivable that a person will face the torment and difficulties she will face in the future with such a confused husband, but this is her own choice, so whether it is a blessing or a curse, she can only bear it herself...... Hopefully, her stupid husband can help her and not make her a laughing stock......
