Chapter 263 Meeting an Acquaintance Again
Old Mrs. Jiang wanted to say more, but was deterred by Jiang Yan's sinister look. Her purpose today was to have a meal and see her eldest grandson Jiang Wen. Seeing that Jiang Yan did not drive them away, she also took a rest.
I want to sit with old man Jiang.
Zhang Yanzi and Mrs. Jiang sat at the windy entrance outside the courtyard. As soon as they entered the table, the old lady took her two sons and began to look at the Lin family's courtyard, looking at the towering floors and luxurious decorations, her eyes rolled.
Staring bigger and bigger.
As soon as those guests at the second table were seated, the dishes began to be served one after another. With the experience of the first table, everyone behind them also began to be busy.
The cold wind howled and made people's faces hurt. Those guests who were still unwilling to leave after eating gathered around the fire, gossiping about what they had seen and heard today, and recalling the delicious food just now.
With Zhang Yanzi staring at Mrs. Jiang and the others, Jiang Yan felt relieved. She greeted the other guests and was about to leave when she saw a luxurious carriage slowly approaching.
She frowned slightly, looking at the carriage that was no less impressive than her own, and for a moment she didn't know who was coming.
Just as she was wondering, the curtain of the carriage was opened, and Liu Xiaoyue, dressed in silk and satin, jumped out of the carriage, followed closely by her parents.
Compared with the last time they came to Linjiacun, the Liu family of three has changed a lot.
The three of them all put on a brand new satin winter coat. The lining was made of fine silk. When they walked around, the thin intertwined silk threads became even more delicate and beautiful.
Jiang Yan looked at it without any trace, and when she saw Liu Xiaoyue's head full of hairpins, she almost couldn't help but laugh.
Liu Xiaoyue must have extorted a lot of money from Yu Xuan. She specially sent invitations to Lin Nan and Liu Xiaomeng's wedding today. She originally thought that their family would not come, but she didn't expect that not only did they come, but they came in a very grand manner.
horizontal.
Seeing the family's irrepressible nouveau riche aura, Jiang Yan put on a smile and pretended to be surprised and said: "Oh, it turns out it's my ex-in-laws who are here. Why don't you have the nerve to come to my house for dinner?"
As she spoke, she looked at the carriage and the outfits of the three of them in a deliberately exaggerated way, and said in surprise: "Tsk, tsk, tsk, no wonder I didn't like my Lin Nan before. It turns out that your family is so rich, fat aunt, this carriage, this full head of hair."
The hairpin and the fine silk and satin on the body are really enviable..."
Jiang Yan's voice was deliberately raised, and for a while the surrounding villagers and guests gathered around, and everyone started gossiping.
Most of the farmers are not rich, especially since the drought has been severe in the past few years. Many people don't care about food, let alone what to wear, so everyone's clothes are more or less patched with different fabrics.
"Is this silk satin? The material looks so beautiful. I've seen it in a cloth shop."
"That's right. I've seen it in that shop before. It's so expensive. We idiots like us can only look at it and see if we can afford it."
"And that hairpin, it's all made of silver. How did Liu Dazhuang's family get so rich? Why did they suddenly become so rich..."
"It's so beautiful. This expensive dress looks different from our coarse linen clothes. It looks like a lady from a rich family."
There were several people from Liujia Village in the crowd. They all knew how poor Liu Dazhuang's family was in the past. They all came from the same village and knew everything about it. Now that his family suddenly made money, they were not only jealous but also confused and curious.
Liu Xiaoyue raised her head high, and her vanity was greatly satisfied by being watched and praised like this. When her eyes fell on Jiang Yan, she felt a bit of contempt and pride.
The fat aunt straightened her fat waist, shook the silver bracelet on her hand proudly, and said with a smile: "I was the one who raised Xiao Meng after all. Now that she is getting married, the elders will naturally come to congratulate her.
"
Liu Dazhuang behind her immediately went to the carriage to bring down the gift. It was a piece of red cloth. Although the material looked ordinary, it was more festive. Jiang Yan didn't expect them to send many valuable things. She didn't have time to spare, so it was considered a gift.
Strange.
"Old Song, it's difficult for Xiao Meng's mother-in-law to come, so hurry up and take them to sit at the table, greet them well, and let them see how much our Lin family cares about Xiao Meng's daughter-in-law."
Jiang Yan invited the people in with a smile, and waved to Lin Nan, who was still greeting the guests in the crowd, "Second brother, you come to greet Xiaomeng's family, but don't let others think that we are neglecting our etiquette."
When Lin Nan saw Liu Xiaoyue, the joy on his face instantly dissipated, but when he heard what his mother said, he could only walk over with a cold face and greeted a few people to sit at the table.
Since Liu Xiaoyue saw Lin Nan, she couldn't move her eyes away and kept staring at him. Lin Nan today was dressed in a wedding robe, and his tall figure and angular facial features were particularly eye-catching.
Compared to the last time we met, he seemed to be much more mature and more attractive to her.
"Brother Lin Nan..." Her soft and delicate voice sounded. When Lin Nan looked over, she raised her slender neck, revealing her pitiful eyes, looking like an infatuated girl.
"Stop your hypocritical look. I won't follow your example. My mother asked you to come to my house for dinner. She just wanted you to know how good our family's life is now. When Xiaomeng was at your house
She has been tortured so much that if she marries me, I will treat her well and not let her suffer any more."
Lin Nan was a straight man and was extremely disgusted with Liu Xiaoyue's behavior. Before she could speak, he turned around and left, leaving Liu Xiaoyue with an indifferent back.
Looking at this luxurious manor-like mansion, her jealous palms were filled with blood. When she thought that today's banquet should have belonged to her, and that she also had a share in such a house, her hatred for Liu Xiaomeng became even more intense.
Strong.
With a faint smile on her lips, Jiang Yan looked at the Liu family of three who stood out among the crowd at the banquet, and deliberately found a place with a better view to sit down.
At the banquet, plates of exquisite and delicious delicacies were slowly served on the table, but Liu Xiaoyue's expression changed again and again. Compared with her tasteless food, Liu Dazhuang and his wife couldn't stop eating with their chopsticks, and even drank two glasses of wine.
After eating, he started talking nonsense with the guests at the same table.
"I heard that the bridegroom's bride is your niece. You are dressed so well, so you have benefited a lot from the Lin family." A drunkard at the same table flattered Liu Dazhuang.
Another young man also joined in the hooting: "The Lin family is now the richest man in our eight villages. This house is built with such grandeur, I am afraid it will be richer than the landlord's house in the town. You are relatives of the same family, so you will also make money."
Didn’t you get a lot of money?”
