Chapter 398 Zhang Caixia's pipe dream (2)
"Sure!" Ling Wei's face broke into a playful smile.
Zhou Ling and Zhang Yan both twitched their lips. Oh no, another one of them is dumbfounded.
Liu Donglan, however, thought differently; she believed Ling Wei was up to something.
"Then it's settled. I'll hold the banquet here in three days!" Zhang Caixia said happily, revealing a set of yellow teeth with bright green chive leaves stuck in them, seemingly struggling to stay in place.
Liu Aihong subconsciously looked at Ling Wei, "Little sister, is this okay?"
Da Ya said she had a lot to do and there were times when she couldn't take care of things properly, so she should consult with Ling Wei more and listen to Ling Wei more.
Liu Aihong was a doting father to her daughter and was extremely grateful to Luo Ning for rescuing her from her cold situation. She treated Luo Ning's words as sacred decrees and carried them out without question.
Ling Wei nodded seriously, "Of course, Zhang Caixia, you can put down a thousand yuan and come to hold the banquet in three days. My aunt will also help you with some odds and ends."
My aunt's place is a feng shui gem, facing north with excellent natural light. A thousand is really not expensive for you..."
Zhou Ling and Zhang Yan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Thank goodness, Ling Wei is smart.
Liu Donglan had an "I knew it" look on her face. "I'm not Luo Jing, I won't let those with bad intentions get away with it."
The three of them automatically moved to the back to cheer Ling Wei on and boost her morale.
Liu Aihong seemed to understand something and firmly supported Ling Wei's opinion.
"Are you crazy? What kind of nonsense costs a thousand? When did I ever say I was going to pay?" Zhang Caixia exploded on the spot, acting as if she were one of the guests.
"Your place's just sitting idle anyway, why don't you let me use it for a bit?"
Liu Aihong and the others' expressions turned rather unpleasant. They thought, "They think they can use this for free without paying? They're dreaming!"
"Auntie, did you hear that? Zhang Caixia has no intention of paying us at all. She's not related to our family at all, so why is she so brazenly using our land?" Ling Wei said with a half-smile, not treating outsiders like family at all.
"It's true that this place is idle, but we're happy to be idle, so what? Either you come up with a thousand dollars and we'll rent the land to you, or you can get out!"
Zhang Caixia gritted her teeth in anger. She was determined to deal with this little brat. She smiled and looked at Liu Aihong, "Auntie, is an outsider running your household? I've never heard of such a thing before!"
"Haven't you heard? Ling Wei is my daughter. So what if she's in charge? It's none of your business!" Liu Aihong rolled her eyes, determined to stand firmly on Ling Wei's side.
Not to mention that Da Ya likes Ling Wei and treats her like a younger sister.
Just because Ling Wei protected Daya and went against Jian Yin, Liu Aihong treated Ling Wei like her own child.
When Ling Wei and Jian Yin had their conflict that day, she and her two sisters-in-law went to the vegetable garden and didn't know. Dong Lan told them everything when they came back.
Moreover, as a mother, she pitied Ling Wei for her orphaned childhood and poor health, and sincerely wanted to treat that poor girl well.
Ling Wei was deeply moved, and tears welled up in her eyes.
Although her sister and uncle both told her to treat this place as her own home, she ultimately felt no sense of belonging while living under someone else's roof.
Although the uncle and sister didn't say much and treated her like their own child or sister, the aunt and Luo Jing weren't so open-minded...
Her aunt's statement today made her especially excited.
Zhang Haixia thought to herself, "She's a wild one, but she really is from your family."
These are things you can only think about in your heart, you can't say them out loud, otherwise she'll ruin her chances of borrowing the house.
"Auntie, look at what you're saying, you're not even trying to arouse curiosity! A thousand yuan is too much, can you make it cheaper? I only have twenty here!"
"You wish!" Liu Aihong sneered. She didn't think a thousand was a lot at all.
She hardly spent any money on household expenses; Luo Ning paid for everything. In addition, she earned some money from pickling pork, and Daya's father received a monthly salary.
A thousand dollars is a very ordinary amount for her.
If we go back to the beginning of the year, even a thousand dollars could make her so worried that her hair would fall out in clumps.
In this day and age, rural areas are still not wealthy, and households with 10,000 yuan are extremely rare. A family with a few hundred or a few thousand yuan is considered to be doing well.
It's obvious that Zhang Caixia doesn't fall into that category; her family is poor, and she's not yet in a position to manage her future husband's family.
That 20 yuan was what she earned making hair accessories for Sister Ding. That wicked woman Zheng Xiu'e refused to give her any cloth to make hair accessories, so she had to help others.
However, Zheng Xiu'e's arrogance won't last long. Her hair ornaments will soon be worn out, as she managed to get information from Qu Fang about the big boss in the city who wanted to come.
Ling Wei wiped her face and began to expose Zhang Caixia's ugly face, "Auntie, actually she doesn't want to spend a single penny! Originally, she had her eye on my sister's family. My sister is the hope of our village. It would be so much more impressive to hold a banquet at her house. Besides, she's my sister's sister-in-law. If you really think about it, she has a right to stand on her side!"
Although Ling Wei had only been there for a few days, she had already learned most of the details about Luo Ning from Liu Donglan.
That's the point, Liu Aihong and others nodded emphatically.
Zhang Caixia's eyes flickered slightly; this little bitch was really quite something.
"My sister is so clever; she saw right through her little scheme and didn't even give her a chance to bring up her sister-in-law status! So, out of desperation, she set her sights on your place. First, your house is newly built; second, you're my sister's mother, so holding a banquet here would be more prestigious; and third..."
There's a third one! Ling Wei is amazing; she never even thought of that. Liu Donglan instantly became Ling Wei's little fan.
Zhou Ling and Zhang Yan went up together and both looked at Ling Wei.
Zhang Caixia felt a little weak and unconsciously swallowed.
That was Jian Yin's suggestion, and her whole family unanimously and excitedly approved it.
It took her a long time to realize what Jian Yin was up to, putting her learning into practice...
"What's the third one?" Liu Aihong asked subconsciously, feeling a sense of déjà vu as she saw Luo Ning.
"Thirdly, you have another daughter now. Zhang Caixia's mother was taken to the police station, and since she has no family to rely on, she's depended on you!"
Last night, everyone went to a meeting, and when they came back, they were all talking about that matter. It was hard for Ling Wei not to know.
"After all, you are much better than Zhang Caixia's mother. First, our family has two elderly parents and some status in the village. Second, we are still your sister's family. With a sister like this backing you up, who would dare to mess with her when you go out?"
Our house is newly built, making it perfect for weddings.
She doesn't want to spend a single penny and wants to hold her wedding banquet here; she's just plotting to have you become her mother.
This can't be said outright, so she comes to borrow your territory. Once you do, you're her mother!
After all, you're not related by blood, and you don't even charge her money. Who but her mother would spoil her like that?
I never knew there were such shameless people in the world. How old is she, and how old are you? She actually put you in her mother's cage.
I can guarantee that as long as she gets what she wants, she will frequently visit you, since she married out of here, and you are her maternal home.
You went from having two daughters to having three daughters, and she insisted on squeezing them in.
Zhang Caixia did this for one purpose only: to use your daughter's status to get a share of the profits from the workshop...
Then they squeezed my sister out of the workshop, and squeezed everyone else out of the workshop…
Ling Wei was interrupted by Liu Aihong's actions before she could finish speaking.
