Chapter 673: A Wasted Scheme
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Second Sister, what nonsense are you spouting?” Since Chu Zhiwen had already spoken, Chu Yonghua naturally could not just sit there and do nothing. He reprimanded her and wanted to turn the matter into a small one.
When Chu Hongmei saw that her elder brothers were actually siding with Madam Qian, she realized how low her status in her family was. For a moment, she hated them for being ignorant. She was married into the Luo family and lived a rich life. How could these people not please her?
Thinking about it, his face darkened.
However, when she saw Chu Heng, she quickly restrained her unhappiness and held it in. She smiled a little aggrievedly and said, “Eldest Brother, Third Brother, I’m used to the rules. That’s why I don’t agree with Fifth Sister-in-law’s words. Yet, she deliberately criticized me… I’ve never been treated like this in the Luo family.”
“You should listen to me too. Ah Heng is now a high scholar and will definitely become richer and richer in the future. This rule has to be slowly observed. Otherwise, when he mingles with those landowners, squires, officials, and lords, I’m afraid he will be laughed at by them.”
“It’s fine if you embarrass yourself. I’m just afraid that those people will say bad things about Ah Heng.”
“Scholars value their reputation. You should know better than me that I’m saying this for Ah Heng’s sake.”
“If you don’t want to listen, then forget it. Just treat it as me doing bad things out of kindness.” Chu Hongmei picked up a handkerchief and pretended to wipe her tears, looking aggrieved.
After spending a long time with the ladies of those rich families, she learned the ability to change her face. Now, in order to achieve her goal, she did not argue with Madam Qian. Her disguise made the old men of the Chu family feel a little embarrassed.
After all, bullying a woman was not justifiable.
Moreover, Chu Hongmei’s words were not wrong.
Chu Yonghua’s face turned red. He decided to drink some wine to cover his face. Otherwise, he would probably make a fool of himself in front of the younger generation. He coughed lightly. “Then don’t be noisy. After all, today is Ah Heng’s happy occasion.”
“But you’re right. We should indeed learn some rules.”
Madam Qian stared, somewhat unhappy.
Chu Fengsheng saw that his eldest brother was obviously biased towards Chu Hongmei. He also saw his wife’s angry look. He could not help but whisper, “Even if Second Sister is right, she shouldn’t bully my wife.”
“We don’t know the rules, but we don’t have to learn from Second Sister.”
Madam Qian felt a little better and lightly reminded him, “Even if Second Sister is right, rules are not fixed. Ah Heng’s health is the most important. If he is with outsiders, he must drink, but when he is with relatives, is it a sin to drink some tea?”
“Alright, alright. You guys don’t have to argue anymore. Ah Heng needs to eat. You guys can go back and eat.” Chu Yonghua hoped for some harmony. After all, no one liked to quarrel on the day of the wedding, right?
Chu Hongmei wanted to stay, but it was obviously impossible.

She did not expect that her older brother, who seemed to be convinced by her, did not care about her identity at all. He did not give her face and continued to speak. She had a feeling that the other party did not understand the trap she had set up and even despised her.
“Ah Heng, I won’t disturb you anymore. We’ll talk later.” Chu Hongmei was angry, but she had no choice. She could not force it, so she turned around and left.
Madam Qian saw that Chu Hongmei was unhappy, so she was happy. She turned around and returned to the dining table.

However, he saw that the elders of the family were looking at him hesitantly.
Chu Heng said lightly, “Uncles, don’t worry. Rules are not something you can learn in a day. If you want to learn, I will send someone to teach you. It doesn’t matter if you don’t want to learn.”
“After all, no family can survive purely on the rules.”
Chu Yonghua and the others were relieved.
