"Yes, Xiao Yue, if you are truly being bullied, don't just keep it to yourself." Zhang Hualian also felt sorry for her daughter. Initially, she had only hoped for an ordinary family, the Mo Family. Although they were not bad in Wangjiang County, she thought, the Tang Family was getting better as well.
Who knew, Mo Xiaolin found Siyu's biological father, and just like that, Mo Siyu became a man from Jing City, and a very, very wealthy one, which made Zhang Hualian feel somewhat uneasy.
If she had known this from the beginning, Zhang Hualian would definitely not have agreed.
With such different social standings, if their daughter really was bullied, as her parents, there would be little they could do.
But now, Zhang Hualian couldn't find the words to stop them, not to mention that Tang Yue and Siyu were deeply in love, and the engagement had already been set, there was absolutely no reason to call it off.
If it really comes down to it, there's still the Lian Family. Lian He feels guilty towards her and Xiao Yue. As long as it can prevent Xiao Yue from being bullied, she... is also willing to let Lian He protect Xiao Yue.
"Mom, do I look like someone who would swallow grievances?" Tang Yue asked, looking sideways.
Maybe she would have in the past, but not anymore, she's not that foolish now.
"Right, besides this box, what else is there?" Zhang Hualian changed the subject. Their wedding was approaching, and she was eagerly looking forward to the couple's growing happiness.
Tang Yue paused, then said, "This is a passbook, given by Grandpa Meng."
"It's also a small token of affection from an elder." Tang Zhengde added.
Zhang Hualian took a glance at the passbook and was shocked; she had agreed with Tang Zhengde's words, but seeing the amount on the passbook, she couldn't help but be astonished. The previous box of jewelry had already dazzled their eyes.
The amount of money in this passbook also gave Zhang Hualian a huge shock. How many zeros were there?
"This is too much," Zhang Hualian felt the passbook was scalding hot.
They hadn't even formally engaged yet, and so much had already been brought back.
Zhang Hualian's heart was pounding fiercely.
"Since the Meng Family has given it, let's keep it."
Tang Zhengde seemed to understand; he also knew about the Meng Family from Tang Mingli. The Meng Family was wealthy, so giving this amount of money was appropriate, and it also showed how much the Meng Family valued Tang Yue.
"Keep these, and take them with you when you get married," Zhang Hualian quickly put the passbook back in the box and handed it back.
Being stimulated so much, Zhang Hualian felt her endurance had greatly increased. She spoke earnestly, "It's a good thing that the Meng Family values you. You and Siyu should live a happy and fulfilled life, and your dad and I will be at ease."
"What about what your father-in-law gave?" Zhang Hualian asked again.
"This." Tang Yue took out a red envelope, a thin one, containing just a few papers. On the papers were drawings of two houses.
Zhang Hualian: "..."
Tang Zhengde: "..."
Their in-laws seemed too generous.
These were houses in Jing City, not family homes.
Tang Yue was still okay. Given how substantial the gifts from Mr. Meng were, the two houses given by Meng Jin seemed understandable.
These two properties would be worth at least ten million in the future.
At that time, she and Mo Siyu had discussed it, but Mo Siyu told her to keep it with peace of mind, to be used as her private money in the future.
Tang Yue wanted to give the passbook to Mo Siyu, since Mo Siyu also seemed to need money recently, but Mo Siyu didn't accept it. In Mo Siyu's words, that was the wife's money, to be kept for her own use, he didn't need it.
Tang Family.
Before Tang Zhengyuan could go home to discuss the matter, the Mo Family came visiting.
Zheng Chunhong and her husband personally came to talk about it, bringing some snacks for the elderly. Zheng Chunhong, who usually works as the women's director in the village, had a way of speaking that was particularly comforting.
Granny Tang was wondering about Zheng Chunhong's intentions when she suddenly heard that Tang Yue was getting her marriage certificate and they were invited to go to Jing City as a family. Granny Tang was shocked: "When did this happen? How come I didn't know?"
"Oh." Zheng Chunhong only heard from Mo Xiaolin that both families had already discussed it. Could it be that Granny Tang wasn't informed?
With a quick thought, Zheng Chunhong said, "Maybe their news came later."
"Mom, I'm back." Tang Zhengyuan's voice rang from outside.
The Tang Family house in Qianjin Village was now a two-story brick building that Granny Tang particularly liked. Spacious, and she could see her great-grandson Pang Pang every day. Granny Tang was happier as the days went by, wishing to live another decade or more.
"Zheng Yuan is back." Hearing her son had returned, Granny Tang couldn't hide her smile. Her eldest son was successful now, and although he had divorced Wang Aihua, there were quite a few people secretly wanting to introduce him to someone.
But Tang Zhengyuan had not agreed yet.
"Mom, do we have guests?" As Tang Zhengyuan walked into the hall, he saw Zheng Chunhong. Hearing about Zheng Chunhong's visit, Tang Zhengyuan smiled and said, "Mom, I came back to tell you about this as well. Xiao Yue is getting her marriage certificate, will you go?"
"I will, it's my granddaughter's wedding. How could I not go?" Granny Tang replied without hesitation, "Chunhong, with so many of us going…won't it be too expensive?"
The Tang Family was quite large.
"It won't be, this is a happy occasion. If the elders don't go, how can it be like a wedding?" Zheng Chunhong smiled warmly, "If it wasn't for Xiao Yue deeming a wedding ceremony too flashy, why would we opt for just getting the marriage certificate? Our Si Yu is fortunate to marry Xiao Yue."
