Peach Luck Village-Chapter 51: Return to Lu Family

At the Lu family, Hou and Hou Qian showed up at the door with bags big and small to apologize.

Lu Ruoxi and He Hui paid them no attention, sitting in the courtyard cracking sunflower seeds and quietly waiting for the drama to unfold.

Tao Cuixhua greeted them warmly, inviting them to sit and pouring tea for the two.

Today, to keep a strong posture against He Hui and Lu Ruoxi, Hou Qian also dressed up for the occasion.

Her makeup was exquisitely done, enhancing her features flawlessly, as if a celestial being had descended to earth.

She was also dressed meticulously, wearing a dark green cheongsam worth tens of thousands.

Even for an ordinary family, even if one could afford it, one would hesitate to buy such an expensive item.

On her head, she wore a luxurious hairpin; on her ears, expensive earrings; and around her jade neck, a sapphire necklace.

On her wrists, on her fingers, there were even more.

Several rings of various styles, several bracelets of different kinds.

Even on her feet, she wore anklets.

She looked wealthy.

This outfit indeed was valuable, not less than three hundred thousand to acquire.

It made her seem unapproachable to the average person.

After sitting down, Hou Qian spoke earnestly, "Auntie Lu, don’t think I spoke too harshly yesterday, but a woman really needs to know her place."

"Especially if she aspires to climb higher, she must even more so know her place for the marriage to continue."

"Otherwise, sooner or later, she will be swept out by the mother-in-law’s family."

A dead camel is still bigger than a horse.

The Hou family still possesses assets worth tens of millions, far beyond what the Lu family can compare to.

After a pause, Hou Qian continued, "Of course, I was also somewhat inconsiderate yesterday, not taking into account the actual situation of the Lu family."

"So, this morning, I specifically went to buy some high-class clothes to give to you all, hoping you would like them."

Hou Qian handed the gifts she had bought to Tao Cuixhua.

Tao Cuixhua happily said, "The gifts bought by my sister-in-law, whether I like them or not, I have to like them, thank you for sparing no expense."

"People of the Lu family are not unreasonable, we understand the Hou family, they value face, we won’t take it to heart."

"Sister-in-law said last night that a woman should know her place, and that is indeed a must."

"Also please rest assured, sister-in-law, our Ruoxi is not a woman who disrespects her marital duties, if she dare to have relations with another man after marrying Hou, you don’t even need to speak, I will severely punish her and give her a lesson."

At that moment, Lin Tian arrived at the Lu family with a sack full of cash.

"Lin Tian!"

Tao Cuixhua was furious.

Lin Tian wasn’t giving Lu Ruoxi enough, and now he had come to ruin Lu Ruoxi’s chance to marry into a good family.

If Lin Tian succeeded, where else could Lu Ruoxi find such a suitable family as the Hou family to marry into.

"That, Lin Tian, today we have important guests at home, if there’s something, you can come back when we are available!"

Lin Tian entered the Lu Family courtyard, and before he could speak, Tao Cuixhua was already pushing him out.

Lin Tian nodded and said, "I know, the Lu family has important guests today, so I won’t stay long."

"Just one thing, since my sister Ruoxi is getting married, how can I, as her brother, not show any gesture?"

"But I just got back, and I don’t know what Ruoxi likes, what would be good to give."

"After some thought, I just decided to give money, whatever Ruoxi lacks she can buy herself."

Having said that, Lin Tian handed the sack of money to Lu Ruoxi, "Little sister Ruoxi, a small token of affection, please don’t think it’s not enough."

Lu Ruoxi teasingly said, "Brother Tian, how much money did you give me that you had to use a sack to carry it?"

"You wouldn’t be joking with me by putting only a few hundred dollars and filling the rest with paper!"

"I will not accept this; I’ve always treated you as my real brother."

"You didn’t come back for ten years, my marriage is such a big event, how can it be dismissed with just a few hundred dollars?"

"So, I want you to tell me right now how much money you really gave me."

"If it’s too little, don’t blame your sister for getting angry and not recognizing you as her brother anymore."

Having said that, Lu Ruoxi took the sack over.

"It’s quite heavy; if this is all money, then I am going to be rich."

Lu Ruoxi called out to He Hui, "Sister-in-law, come and help me carry this, if it’s all money, I’ll definitely share half with you today, and won’t let you help for nothing." 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

"Alright! I’ll come over and help, but you better keep your word."

He Hui walked over and grabbed the other corner of the sack.

Unable to wait, Lu Ruoxi said, "I’ll count to three, then we’ll both pull, and dump out what’s in the sack."

"Okay!"

He Hui had no objections.

Lu Ruoxi started counting.

"3!"

"2!"

"1, dump!"

He Hui and Lu Ruoxi both pulled hard.

Stacks of red bills were poured out from the sack by the two women.
