83 Accident
Ms. Tian’s face changed. She shivered and started to panic.
Yang Liang did not counter the old woman, so the tale was real.
She knew pretty well how she treated Yang Xiaoni.
Now the bitch had decided to start a war with her, and even spent the night at Third Grandma Yang’s home instead of her own house. The way she was behaving was so annoying!
What if she caused a huge mess.
Ms. Tian did get frightened hearing what Third Grandma Yang said to her.
Third Grandma Yang felt slightly better and prouder, as she managed to talk down Ms. Tian. “I think we can settle the arrangement here. 20 liang as the wedding gift. Yang Liang, anything you want to say?”
“What? I…”
“Okay, nothing to say.” Third Grandma Yang said resolutely and settled the argument. “Pick a date and exchange the engagement card.”
Ms. Tian, who was furious, and jealous, found that she was losing. So she snapped. “But I don’t have any dowry to offer and we can’t afford to host a banquet!”
Any family would turn around and walk away, when they heard those words.
But Ms. Fang did not really care about those things, otherwise she would have died out of anger long ago because of what the third section of the family and the second section of the family did to her family.
She could clearly see that Ms. Tian was evil and she was doing all of this on purpose. So, in order to win the argument, she was going to say yes to the marriage at any cost.
Also, her useless son insisted on marrying Yang Xiaoni.
So Ms. Fang nodded constantly. “Okay! We just like Xiaoni and don’t care about her dowry!”
Third Grandma Yang suddenly felt really jealous.
How could her own daughter fail to have such good luck!
Feeling even more furious, Ms. Tian said annoyedly, “I don’t have much food to give to someone else’s daughter-in-law. Since the marriage is settled, you should take her away as soon as possible.”
That was exactly what Ms. Fang expected to hear. “Okay then, after the Dragon Boat Festival in May, we will pick an auspicious date for the wedding!”
Ms. Tian sneered and added. “You should not look down at us. You must hold one wedding on the same scale as the one you held for your fifth daughter-in-law!”
“Ms. Tian!” Third Grandma Yang sank her face. “How dare you compare the village girl to the daughter of the County Magistrate? What scale? If you ever cause trouble to the Yang Family, we will all go down together!”
In other words, what she meant was that the County Magistrate was not in the same category as these people, and if the County Magistrate learned about the comparison, he might not be happy.
The other elderly grandmas also had stern expressions on their faces, and snapped at Ms. Tian.
Qiao Xuan sneered and threw a disdainful look at Ms. Tian, as if she were going to take revenge on her without warning.
Ms. Tian turned slightly pale and did not dare to say anything more.
When this errand was settled, Ms. Qiao and Ms. Fang left together.
Ms. Fang smiled at Qiao Xuan. “You have helped us a lot!”
Qiao Xuan smiled. “No worries, Mom, we are a family. You treat me so nicely and Third Brother has helped me a lot too. This is all I can do to repay you.”
Ms. Fang laughed. “Oh, my child, you are so adorable!”
It was Qiao Xuan’s idea to come to Third Grandma Yang’s home for the settlement. She even had two bottles of honey and one patch of cotton cloth to offer.
Those gifts delighted Third Grandma Yang greatly, and she spared no efforts to defend them in every way possible.
