Chapter 7 The Water Spilled by the Married Daughter
Chapter 7 The water thrown by the married daughter
"Mom, don't be so angry. Xiao Mo also cares about you. I've seen the gold bracelet. It's heavy and has seven rubies inlaid on it. It's estimated to be no less than five thousand yuan."
Not only did Mica not show a half smile, she was filled with doubts, "Is that bracelet really that expensive?"
"Well, the weight and style are similar to Mrs. Yan's one. Mrs. Yan's one is inlaid with six rubies. It was customized by a famous master in the capital. It is said that it cost four thousand yuan. The one on Xiao Mo's hand has even more rubies.
I bought one, and it’s a collectible bought from abroad by someone else. I’d say five thousand is less.”
"Where did she get so much money?"
"That's not clear. Xiao Mo has a prejudice against me and won't tell me anything."
After hearing this, Yunmu was so angry that she cursed Baiyanlang, and her dissatisfaction with her adopted daughter reached its peak.

"Sneeze, sneeze!"
Yun Mo returned to the room after taking a shower. She sneezed several times as soon as she entered the door. She rubbed the tip of her nose while looking at Ling Chuan who had changed his clothes and seemed to be going out.
"Are you scolding me secretly?"
Lingchuan gave her a strange look and didn't answer, "I have to go out, you go to bed early and don't have to wait for me."
After the man said that, he went out, and Yun Mo didn't care. She hoped that he would not come back tonight, so she would be more comfortable sleeping alone.
After closing the door, Yun Mo turned around and accidentally discovered that the peanut shells and leftovers on the wooden table had been cleared away.
It seems that this man is not useless.
The thought flashed through Yunmo's mind, and then she sat cross-legged on the bed and counted the items in the spiritual spring space.
In addition to her personal collection from her previous life, the Lingquan space also contained some emergency medicines, food and clothing, as well as self-defense weapons. Although the number was small, it was very practical for her now.
If she had known she would wear it here, she should have stocked up on supplies!
In this era of scarcity and economic backwardness, the things in her space are too advanced and exotic to be shown to others, but she is not afraid of the underwear she wears.
Yunmo found a set of pure cotton underwear, cut off the labels, put them on, and put the changed underwear back into the Lingquan space, waiting for an opportunity to deal with it.
As for the outer clothes, she was tied up to get married. Not to mention the dowry, she didn't even bring any luggage. Fortunately, there were some spare clothes in the space, so she wouldn't be without a change of clothes for the time being.

Taking advantage of the dim light coming from the low buildings on both sides, the two brothers Lingjiang and Lingchuan were walking quickly through the dilapidated and narrow alleys, each carrying rice, flour, grain, oil and other items in their hands.
Ling Jiang: "Kuanzi, can't you go to Uncle Zhou's house tomorrow? Why does it have to be tonight? It's the wedding night. If you leave your siblings alone at home, won't it be a scandal if word spreads about it?"
"The construction site is busy and we have to leave early tomorrow morning."
"So urgent? Why don't you stay at home with your siblings for two more days tomorrow, and I'll go over and watch first?"
"Need not."
Ling Jiang wanted to persuade him again, but when he looked up and saw the Zhou family in front, he had to stop talking.

At dinner time, the Yun family gathered around the dining table, and the large European-style chandelier above their heads illuminated the entire dining room.
In this era when poor people in the countryside still light kerosene lamps, the wealth of the Yun family is evident.
Yun Huan looked at the vacant seat and exclaimed happily, "Finally, I don't have to sit and eat with that annoying guy anymore!"
Although he didn't name him, everyone in the Yun family knew who this "nuisance" was referring to. His words were very rude, but no one in the Yun family spoke up to remind him or stop him.
Yun's father, Yun Shixian, looked at his eldest daughter Yunyao majestically, "There was nothing wrong with today's wedding, right?"
Yunyao smiled and nodded, "Everything went well."
Yun Shixian snorted displeasedly, but didn't ask any more questions.
Yun Shixian is considered a big figure in Jiang City, so how could the events at the wedding be hidden from his eyes and ears.
Yun Shixian is not a soft-eared housewife like Yun Mu. Yun Yao can stir up trouble in front of Yun Mu, but this trick does not work in front of the shrewd and sophisticated Yun Shixian.
Therefore, Yunyao never said anything bad about Yun Mo in front of Yun Shixian.
Facts have proved that Yun Shixian is very fond of this trick. What he wants is a well-behaved and obedient daughter who can help the Yun family, not a "worm" like Yun Mo who only causes trouble and brings shame to the Yun family.
At this time, Yun Cong, the second son of the Yun family, interrupted, "Will she come back tomorrow?"
Yunyao: "Although Xiaomo is married, this is still her home, and it's normal to come back."
Yun Huan frowned in disgust, "This is not her home, and she is not from our Yun family!"
Yun Yao kept paying attention to Yun's father's face. Seeing that the other party showed no signs of anger, she continued: "Xiao Mo's luggage has not been packed yet. I originally wanted the servant to pack it for her and send it over, but I was afraid that she would
She lost her temper and said that we messed with her things, so why don't we clean them up before she comes back, and we can also ask her how she is doing at Ling's house."
"I don't want to see her! It's all because of her that I lose face in school and no one wants to play with me!"
After passing by Yunyao Gonghuo in the afternoon, Yunmu was already very dissatisfied with her adopted daughter. Now that she knew that her younger daughter was also involved, she felt even more disgusted with her adopted daughter.
"The water thrown away by a married daughter. We raised her until she was 18 years old and provided her with education for so many years. We have done our best to benevolent and righteous. Now that she is married, we should cut off all contact with her from now on."
From what Yun Mu means, does she want to completely sever ties with Yun Mo?
The Yun family all stopped eating and all looked at Yun's father. He was the only one who could make the decision in this family.
Yun Shixian did not express his position immediately, but was thinking about the pros and cons of this matter.
As a businessman, the cost of his investment in Yunmo in the previous 18 years was considerable. If he severed the relationship now, the 18 years of careful cultivation would be in vain.
Judging from Yun Mo's performance at the wedding today, this adopted daughter is not hopelessly stupid. Wait and see, what if she can help the family in the future?

It was already past 10 o'clock when I came out of Zhou's house. This era does not have the prosperity and entertainment of the 21st century, and the old street is a famous slum. In order to save electricity bills and fuel, the residents went to bed early.
The neighborhood was dark and silent, like a sleeping beast.
The Lingchuan brothers hurried home under the hazy moonlight and went back to their houses.
As soon as he walked to the door, he saw a dim light coming from the crack of the door. At that moment, Lingchuan felt as if something was gently blowing through his heart, like the summer wind or the moonlight in the sky, gentle and hazy.
He paused for two seconds before reaching out and pushing the door open.
"Squeak."
As soon as you enter the house, what you see is the charming sleeping face of a woman.
She has a fair and smooth oval face, curved willow-leaf eyebrows, long and curled eyelashes like two small fans covering her eyelids, and her cherry lips are rosy due to her deep sleep.
