The fake heiress from the 1970s was kicked out at the beginning, but became a village girl and was p

Ling's mother asked curiously, "I didn't hear that any guests are coming today. Did you invite someone over but forgot to mention it?"

"No, I didn't go anywhere today except for taking the day off. I was specifically going to your in-laws' place with you today, so why would I have asked anyone else to come?"

"Who exactly came here suddenly..." Ling's mother muttered.

Arriving at the doorstep,

Seeing Madam Li and Li Yaoyao, Ling's mother understood everything.

"Oh, Mrs. Li, and Yao Yao too, what brings you here today?"

Previously, Ling's mother hadn't noticed that Li Yaoyao, who accompanied Madam Li, always dressed exquisitely and beautifully whenever she came over, and even had a shy expression on her face.

She hadn't thought about it before, but now that she has a daughter-in-law, she'll definitely have to guard against these strange and unusual flowers for her son.

Ling's mother's heart skipped a beat; she felt that Madam Li and her daughter were up to no good.

Mrs. Li smiled broadly.

"It's unfortunate, I heard you went out very early this morning. You just left when we arrived. Where did you two go so early?"

Ling's mother smiled and waved her hand, a hint of smugness and boastfulness on her face.

"Sigh, isn't he my son?"

Upon hearing the name Ling Wenchen, Madam Li and Li Yaoyao's ears immediately perked up.

Could it be that Ling Wenchen is finally coming back?

Wouldn't it be easier to resolve their issues then?

What Madam Li was thinking was that if she could finalize Ling Wenchen's marriage with Yao Yao before he returned.

When the time comes, even if Ling Wenchen has high standards and doesn't like Yao Yao, he will have no choice but to agree to marry her.

Mrs. Li, who had such a wonderful plan, was stunned by Ling's mother's words the next second and almost lost her composure.

"Oh dear, it's all because of my Wenchen. He quietly got married to a woman he knew in the army, and we only found out now."

"So, Lao Ling and I are visiting the bride's family today to discuss wedding arrangements."

Mrs. Li: "!!!!!!!"

Li Yaoyao: "!!!!!!!"

While Madam Li was still managing to stay calm, Li Yaoyao, who was standing next to her, couldn't help but shout out.

"Impossible!" The voice was sharp and piercing.

As soon as she finished speaking, Li Yaoyao saw the ambiguous smiles on Ling's mother and father's faces, and instantly felt ashamed and regretful, lowering her head.

Madam Li cursed inwardly, but forced a smile on her face.

"Oh, I'm sorry, Yao Yao has always liked Wei Chen, and she probably couldn't accept it for a moment, so she impulsively said the wrong thing."

Ling's mother was speechless. "It's one thing to say such things to my face, but Madam Li and I are still friends."

"If this were done in front of outsiders, they would say that Madam Li has not taught her children properly and that her children do not know how to behave."

That's just how Ling's mother is.

You say you're straightforward, and she retorts with something even more direct, leaving you speechless.

You said you were soft-hearted and didn't know how to talk, and she immediately said that if everyone claimed to be honest and law-abiding, then there would be no need for the police to handle cases in this world.

Madam Li's expression changed.

Does this mean she doesn't know how to raise children?

Or, to put it another way, does raising a child like this mean that the Li family is also so unruly?

Madam Li couldn't turn hostile on the spot.

She gritted her teeth secretly, still determined to fight for a chance for Yao Yao. She didn't believe that her Li family couldn't win over Ling Wenchen.

What man doesn't want a woman who can help him?

Her daughter Yaoyao needs a good family background. The Li family and the Ling family are similar, and both can help Ling Wenchen to a certain extent.

She has plenty of money, and no matter how you look at it, her Yao Yao is more suitable for Ling Wenchen.

Unless Ling Wenchen is mentally ill, he wouldn't marry a wife who would help him, but instead chooses to marry a shady woman.

Fortunately, Ling's mother didn't know what she was thinking, otherwise she would have swept the person out with a broom without any politeness.

Just then, some older women who had a good relationship with Ling's mother and were a bit gossipy, along with their friends, were about to go for a stroll when they saw them.

My gossip radar went off instantly; I had a gut feeling there was some juicy gossip to come.

"Oh, isn't this Old Ling and Mrs. Li? What are you doing here, chatting about? Let us hear what you have to say, maybe we can give you some advice."

Ling's mother's eyes lit up.

I used to want to stay away from these people, but now I'm smiling and going up to them, ready to have a good chat with them.

"Oh, let me tell you, my Wenchen...blah blah blah..."

"Good heavens, your Wenchen finally got married? You're not kidding us old ladies, are you?"

No wonder the old women in the family compound didn't believe it.

I've practically watched Ling Wenchen grow up since he was a child, and the impression that he can be ruthless and quick to scold any man, whether male or female, is deeply ingrained in my mind.

He has absolutely no respect for women; his record is that he has made several women who like him cry.

Ling's mother was embarrassed.

"Of course it's true. My daughter-in-law will be coming to my house in a couple of days. You can come over and chat with her then."

At this point, Ling's mother became smug, "Let me tell you, my daughter-in-law is very beautiful, and her temperament is even better than that of girls in the city."

Li Yaoyao clenched her sleeves, her head lowered, her eyes filled with resentment and venom.

It shouldn't be like this, it shouldn't be like this...

She was the one who fell in love with Ling Wenchen first. She made so many efforts for him, just so that he could see her beauty.

As a result, it was stolen by some scoundrel who appeared out of nowhere.

How could Li Yaoyao accept this?

She felt a surge of hatred in her heart, a desperate urge to shout that Ling Wenchen could only be her man, a desperate urge to—

Madam Li subtly tugged at her somewhat dazed daughter, glaring at her to remind her to be mindful of the occasion.

She had already been scolded by Ling's mother once, and she was too ashamed to let her scold her again.

Unable to get a word in edgewise, Madam Li thought for a moment and decided to take Yao Yao home first.

Of course, Ling's mother couldn't wait for them to leave; she didn't want to see Li Yaoyao's pitiful yet unwilling eyes anymore.

What does this child mean?

She made it so clear that Ling Wenchen already has a wife, so what is there for her to be resentful about?

Even if a normal person really likes marriage, they should know their limits and back off, right?

On the Li family's side

Madam Li brought Li Yaoyao back, and an old woman following behind them kept her head down and didn't say a word. She remained silent and had a very low profile.

"Mom, what should I do? I really like Wenchen. You said you had a way to get him to marry me."

Madam Li's face darkened.

"Cry, cry, cry! All you do is cry all day! Why didn't you say anything just now?"

After scolding her daughter, she turned her attention to the silent old woman standing to the side.

"And you old woman, what are you doing here? Why haven't you said anything? If you hadn't been so silent, would I have felt so awkward standing there?"

"You two are utterly useless. One of you just cries and shouts, and the other is like a mute, never uttering a sound, like a dead person. What use are you two?"

Li Yaoyao was too scared to cry out. She bit her lip and shrank back as she watched her mother start to get angry again, making nonsensical accusations.

He vented his anger.

Feeling somewhat better, Mrs. Li regained her composure and sat down to reflect.

After a short while, she looked at her daughter, who dared not approach her, and coldly beckoned to her.

"Li Yaoyao, do you want Ling Wenchen? Do you want Ling Wenchen to willingly propose to you?"
