Protagonist:

Li Xiulan

"Wang Dashan?"

Luo Jiaxin couldn't help but be stunned.

"We and them, it seems we aren't very familiar, right?"

Li Zhenxing smiled bitterly:

"Indeed we aren't very familiar, but our daughter, wasn't she classmates with Wang Xiaohua? Wang Xiaohua is Wang Dashan's Third Brother, and moreover Li Xiulan previously very enthusiastically took the initiative to introduce suitors to our daughter. With this layer of connection, perhaps Wang Dashan really is willing to help us. After all, he has already made it big; 150,000 should still be something he can come up with. And he loves Face very much; he probably also doesn't want his Cousin's wedding to stir up that kind of ugly incident. Otherwise their whole clan would lose Face."

Hearing this, Luo Jiaxin felt there was some logic to it.

Then she hurriedly said:

"Then what are you standing there stunned for? Hurry up and go find Wang Dashan!"

Li Zhenxing, however, was rather embarrassed:

"I don't know how to open my mouth; I can't bring myself to say it. Sigh! Wife, how about you go with me?"

Luo Jiaxin huffed angrily:

"Useless waste, just this little promise. How did you dare to gamble back then!"

Although she cursed and grumbled, Luo Jiaxin ultimately still accompanied Li Zhenxing to go find Wang Dashan.

At this time Wang Dashan, Wang Erhai, Wang Xiaohua, and the others were all at the Door of the Wedding Banquet Hall, helping Wang Yaohua welcome guests.

When guests came, they would actively go up to meet them, hand over a Cigarette, ask a greeting, and then bring the person into the banquet hall to be seated.

When Li Zhenxing and Luo Jiaxin came over, it just so happened that Du Xiaojuan hurriedly arrived.

She not only brought her son Wang Dujin over, but even brought Nanny Kang Yi over.

Because she drove over, she needed at least one person to watch the child, so she had Kang Yi come over to eat the banquet together.

Seeing Du Xiaojuan arrive late, Wang Dashan couldn't help but be somewhat unhappy:

"How come you're this late? Today is my Cousin's wedding. You coming this late, I don't even know how I should explain it to them!"

Du Xiaojuan said coldly:

"What about your Cousin? It's not your Second Brother or Third Brother getting married. If it were your Second Brother or Third Brother getting married, I'd arrive three days early and it'd be fine. But this Cousin of yours getting married — me coming at all already counts as not bad. Don't forget how he screwed you over initially. Yet you still treat him as a relative! If he asks me why I came this late, you don't know how to explain, I'll go explain myself. No need for you to open your mouth! You're just someone who suffers for the sake of Face!"

Wang Dashan dry-laughed. Being spoken to like this by Du Xiaojuan, he couldn't keep face:

"There are so many guests right now. Can you not come at me with a full barrage the moment you arrive? Not talking to you anymore. Hurry up and go in and say hello to Cousin."

Du Xiaojuan turned to go in. At this moment Wang Dashan grabbed her again:

"Did you prepare a Red Envelope?"

Du Xiaojuan just said: "No need for you to say it. Definitely prepared in advance. Dowry/Gift Money — this basic etiquette, I still understand."

Wang Dashan asked: "How much did you prepare?"

Du Xiaojuan just said:

"However much. However much others give, that's how much I'll give."

Wang Dashan was surprised: "You mean just Two Hundred Yuan?"

Du Xiaojuan instead said:

"Not just that. I prepared two Red Envelopes. My own Two Hundred, and Kang Yi's Two Hundred I'll also pay."

Wang Dashan's face was full of speechlessness:

"Come on, you're this stingy? That's my Cousin, after all."

Du Xiaojuan, however, was righteous and confident:

"So what if he's your Cousin? Is your Cousin the Emperor or the Party Secretary? Fine, not talking to you anymore. We're going in."

Wang Dashan watched his own wife's back as she went in, very speechless.

Actually he also had quite a lot of opinions about Wang Yaohua. It was just because Wang Yaohua was his own relative that he felt Dowry/Gift Money should be given a bit more, lest Wang Yaohua's family gossip, saying they earned so much money yet still only give Two Hundred for Dowry/Gift Money, stingy to death!

But Du Xiaojuan insisting on doing it this way, he really had no way to handle Du Xiaojuan.

He couldn't be more clear on what his own wife's personality was like.

If he kept talking, they might just start fighting again.

He didn't want to fight with his own wife at his Cousin's wedding. Otherwise that would absolutely lose all Face.

However, this small matter still made him feel more and more speechless toward Du Xiaojuan, even dissatisfied.

At this moment Li Xiulan walked over, smiling as she said:

"Dashan, look at Xiao Juan. So thrifty and good at managing the household. I'll still say the same thing: in the future, let her manage the money more. Only then can you guard the family assets!"

Wang Dashan didn't know whether to cry or laugh:

"Mom, stop saying these things, okay? Long ago she already seized control of the financial power, okay? Didn't you see I've already become a Family Cook?"

Li Xiulan patiently comforted:

"My meaning is, don't have opinions about Xiao Juan. She does it all for your own good. Trust Mom. Mom is someone who's been through it. Won't harm you!"

Wang Dashan still wanted to speak. At this moment Li Zhenxing and Luo Jiaxin walked over.

"Dashan..."

"Uncle Zhenxing, what's the matter?"

"That... there's something I want to discuss with you..." Li Zhenxing's tone was very humble. He hurriedly handed a Cigarette to Wang Dashan.

Wang Dashan busily said: "I have mine, I have mine... Thank you, Uncle Zhenxing. Whatever matter you have, just speak to me directly." Wang Dashan ultimately still accepted Li Zhenxing's Cigarette.

"That... sigh, I really don't know how to bring this up with you!" Li Zhenxing wore a face full of embarrassment, then immediately nudged his wife Luo Jiaxin, "You say it!"

Luo Jiaxin glanced at Li Xiulan, then said to Wang Dashan:

"Dashan, can we go over there to talk?"

However, before Wang Dashan could agree, Li Xiulan cut in:

"Jiaxin, there's no one else here, just say it here. If you really have some difficulty, and Dashan isn't willing to help, I can also help persuade him!"

Li Xiulan showed a face full of goodwill.

But actually, in her heart she was guarding against this couple, Li Zhenxing and Luo Jiaxin.

Because from Li Zhenxing's face, she sniffed out a trace of something off.

Hearing Li Xiulan say this, Li Zhenxing thought Li Xiulan would really help them, so he hurriedly said:

"Xiulan, with your words I'm reassured. It's actually not a big thing. It's just that I'm a bit pressed for cash recently. Dashan, aren't you doing well in Guangzhou? You even live in a big villa in Guangzhou now. Can you lend some money to tide me over?"

"Lend money?" Li Xiulan's face immediately changed, becoming extremely vigilant.

In this lifetime, she herself was reluctant to spend her sons' money, let alone lend money out?

"Uncle Zhenxing, how much do you want to borrow?"

Wang Dashan asked.

He was thinking, if it's three to five thousand, lend it then, who doesn't have difficult times.

However, the moment Li Zhenxing opened his mouth, he said a figure that startled him:

"Fif... fifteen thousand..."

Wang Dashan was immediately surprised:

"No, why do you need to borrow this much?"

Before Li Zhenxing and Luo Jiaxin could explain, at this moment Li Xiulan spoke up to refuse for Wang Dashan:

"Zhenxing, Jiaxin, this favor Dashan probably can't help you with. His money is all managed by his wife. Why don't you go ask someone else instead."

Li Xiulan's words were crisp and decisive.

She's not like Wang Dashan, who's too embarrassed to open his mouth and refuse.
