377 A woman, alive
my surname is nie, ” the rich lady said. my husband’s surname is li. I’m here today to discuss business with your family.
Cai Xiaolian heaved a sigh of relief when she heard that his surname was not Chen.
She really didn’t want Gu shouxin’s rotten peach to appear before the original owner’s rotten peach blossom was solved.
“Do you want to talk about the was.h.i.+ng set?” Cai Xiaolian asked.
“That’s right. He had this plan before the new year and had always thought that Mrs. Cheng from Taoyuan County was the one selling the was.h.i.+ng and protection sets. It was only a few days ago that he heard from his family that a couple was selling them at the dock. It just so happened that the servants at home saw you with the young lady boss of the Guo family’s rice Shop at the Lantern Festival the day before yesterday. They asked yesterday and found out that you are the brother and sister-in-law of boss Gu’s maternal family, so they came over early in the morning.” Madam Luo explained.
“It’s like this! Please come in, Mrs. Li!” Cai Xiaolian welcomed him in.
Luo s.h.i.+ only brought a maidservant and an old woman. The coachman was at the door and did not follow them in.
“Although it’s already past the fifteenth, but it’s still the first month of the lunar year. I’ve prepared some small gifts, I hope Cai niangniang doesn’t mind. I heard from the young lady boss of the Guo family that it was a few girls in your family who made this set of toiletries, so I’m giving this gift to them. It’s just some desserts and the little things that the ladies like.” Madam Luo said again.
“How can I accept this? Madam Li, you’re too polite for our first meeting!” Cai Xiaolian said.
At this moment, Gu Xin and her sister ran out.
“These are the girls in the family, right? She really looks so fres.h.!.+” Madam Luo looked at the girls.
Her gaze lingered on Gu Hui and Gu Nian the longest. She was wondering who was the one who had ‘ruined’ her son’s ‘innocence’.
The taller one looked more handsome than the shorter one. She had a calm temperament. Although her facial features were not as gentle, her temperament made her look very comfortable.
The shorter one had exquisite facial features. If she changed her clothes and dressed up, she would be one of the best in the prefecture. However, did such a well-behaved girl have the strength to push his son into the water?
Luo s.h.i.+ was a little undecided.
yesterday, she had asked someone to go to the sh.o.r.e to ask. someone had seen that they were following gu san gu. there were quite a few people in the prefecture who knew gu san gu.
So, Luo s.h.i.+ went directly to third aunt Gu. She knew who made the laundry and facial sets before the new year. Mrs. Cheng had obviously cooperated with the Gu family. She had never thought of provoking the official’s family. It was not that she could not afford to, but it was troublesome. Her family had a lot of business, so it didn’t matter if she didn’t have one.
However, for the sake of her unreliable son, when she found third aunt Gu, she started with a wash and nurse set.
It was impossible for her to tell anyone that her son said that your niece had ruined his ‘innocence’ and that she would hand your niece over to her son to take responsibility.
she was in charge of the li family and could not do such a thing.
the business was secondary. he mainly wanted to see how the girl who had ruined his son’s ” innocence ” was like.
She had been trying to find a suitable partner for her son since three years ago, but her son didn’t like any of them. Now, he was asking her to take responsibility. If he didn’t like her, what else could he do?
She hoped that this girl could suppress her son and control him. As long as she had a clean family background and good looks, it would be fine.
Her standard for a daughter-in-law was very simple. A living woman was enough.
