In the brief silence, Zhang Xuning's face turned a little hot. What he said was true, but it was also hurtful. When she marries Lu Dongting, Zhang Xingping will only find ways to profit from the Lu family, and the dowry given to her is very evident.
Lu Dongting's tone was a little serious, "I wonder about her dowry?"
Jiang Ming smiled and said, "If you don't know how to speak, don't speak. What your brother likes most is Xu Ning."
Lu Shitong glanced at Lu Dongting and Zhang Xuning, and said nothing to each other. He laughed in his heart. It has been five years, but his mother's misunderstanding has not been corrected yet. No one saw that Lu Dongting cared about Zhang Xuning.
The matter of changing hands to establish He was revealed because of Lu Shitong's words. Jiang Ming didn't mention it again and asked the servants to bring the cooked soup, saying that it was specially prepared for Zhang Xuning.
"Mom, you treat Xu Ning better than me. Look at these dishes, they are all her favorites."
Jiang Ming has been fasting and chanting Buddha's name for many years, and her diet is light. But every time Zhang Xuning comes, she will prepare her favorite dishes, and the table is full.
Lu Shitong was unhappy, but with a big smile on her face, she said to Zhang Xuning, "Xuning, my mother is so good to you because she expects you to be good to my brother. You have to be nicer to my brother."
Zhang Xuning hummed and smiled at Lu Dongting. Lu Shitong kept half of what he said, and just barely said "You can't do anything to regret my brother."
"She is your sister-in-law. She will have my surname from now on. It is normal for mom to treat her well. As for you, your married daughter throws away the water. You don't know whose surname you will take in the future."
Whose last name is it? Of course it’s Cheng Jingzhou’s surname. During this kind of hand-to-hand exchange, Lu Shitong hoped that Cheng Jingzhou would catch the words, but the people around her didn't respond at all, so she had to shake his arm coquettishly.
Cheng Jingzhou raised his eyes faintly and put his arm around her waist knowingly, his eyes calm, "Is my aunt not treating you well?"
Although she didn't explicitly say that she wanted to take his surname of Cheng, this sentence pleased her.
The dinner ended with a not-so-lively chat.
Jiang Ming took Zhang Xuning to the back garden. Under the eaves, she held Zhang Xuning's hand and kept sighing.
"I don't want him to come over, but Shitong is determined to be with him and insists on letting him come to dinner. Tell me, why is this kid so stubborn? Dongting and I won't listen no matter what we try to do."
Zhang Xuning thought, Jiang Ming said this, but she didn't disagree in her heart.
The Cheng and Lu families, one rich and the other powerful, were well matched. Cheng Jingzhou himself was almost impeccable in terms of hardware and software, and was completely worthy of Lu Shitong. However, the bad relationship she had with Cheng Jingzhou five years ago made her feel a little uncomfortable. That’s all.
"Aunt Ming, as long as he treats Shitong well, let them do it. Cheng Jingzhou also said just now that the elders of the Cheng family like her very much. She will not be wronged after she gets married."
The elders of the Cheng family are mainly Cheng Jingzhou's aunt Cheng Manyun, who hated her very much back then, to the point of hatred.
Jiang Ming nodded, "Cheng Manyun took good care of Shitong during the two years she was abroad. I'm just worried about you... But then again, you and Dongting are getting married soon, and they will become a family in the future. Want to meet."
The evening breeze was slightly cool, and her heart felt sore for no reason. Five years ago, they both swore that they had to be with each other and would stay with him for the rest of their lives. Five years later, she became his sister-in-law.
After all, fate was not kind to her, and they finally became a family.
Jiang Ming went to the kitchen, and Zhang Xuning stayed alone under the eaves for a while. When he was about to return to the living room, Lu Shitong came over.
"Xuning, my mother was here just now, and there are some things I can't say." At this time, Lu Shitong was not as gentle as before, and he had always despised her in private. "What purpose did you have in marrying my brother? Everyone You know it well, but since you agreed to get married, you should treat my brother well and don't sleep with one beside you while thinking about the other, it's not fair to my brother."
The so-called other one naturally refers to Cheng Jingzhou.
