Chapter 487: Uncomfortable

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

She had felt sorry for Ms. Zhang early on and looked down upon Ms. Zhang’s brother.

But after she came to this place, Ms. Zhang was very hostile towards her, so she decided not to befriend her.

Since she hated her, why must she suck up to her? She would just stay away from her.

After the senior people in the family were gone, they were going to live separately and all they needed to do was to act politely when seeing each other.

But Ms. Zhang was so terrible. She even tried to instigate mother-in-law to use her dowry!

Her dowry was not as generous as that of some nobly-born lady. But her parents and brothers adored her and had given her a lot of things.

She had two sets of silver pieces, twenty sets of garments as well as other things and 30 liang in the bottom of the box.

None of these could be moved or used easily.

Ms. Yan clenched her teeth and left quietly.

She did not go to the first section of the family. Instead, she made a big fuss sorting her dowry, intentionally drawing the attention of Ms. Zhang and Ms. Niu.

Ms. Zhang felt so sour and sneered, with a mocking smile on her face. “You have got a lot of dowry, haven’t you? Very lucky!”

Then, she started to mutter inside her head, thinking that none of these would belong to her soon.

She did not like it when the dowry would reach their mother-in-law. But Ms. Zhang would still be happy that Ms. Yan would have nothing left.

These words were exactly what Ms. Yan was waiting for. As long as she mentioned the word dowry, Ms. Yan had the way to continue with the story.

Ms. Yan smiled insincerely. “My parents prepared the dowry for me. My mother said that dowry is the biggest guarantee for married girls, and that everything in a girl’s dowry box should be neatly put away and not be used unless the whole family is starving. I was not very good at sorting things when I was at my parents’ home. But now I have arranged it finally. My mom says that she will come to check my dowry every now and then. If she finds out that my stuff is not well sorted or kept well as she told me, she is going to discipline me.”

“My mom is really fierce. I have to obey her!”

Ms. Niu suddenly turned really uncomfortable.

Ms. Zhang felt that something weird was going on. She thought that Ms. Yan was referring to her but she could not prove it.

Before she could say anything, Ms. Yan smiled at her. “Second Sister-in-law, can I ask you how to sort the dowry well? How do you keep your dowry? Should

I put things in separate boxes and move them out every now and then and check if there are bugs or anything?”

“Second Sister-in-law, tell me some good methods, so that I can learn, too!”

Ms. Zhang’s face changed. “You…”

She had no dowry.

The rags she had were all delivered to the tailor and she had nothing left!

Ms. Niu looked even more uncomfortable.

Ms. Zhang had no words to say when Ms. Niu’s face became ugly.

Moreover, it would be very strange if she tried to get involved with Ms. Yan’s dowry discussion.

Ms. Niu knew pretty well how the Yan Family loved Ms. Yan as their daughter. She had also made the promise of adoring her, which was why the Yan Family decided to marry her to their family.

The Yan Family could not be offended easily.

Also, Ms. Yan looked like someone with ideas, too.

What if Ms. Yan’s mother really checked her dowry when she came over and found that something was missing. Things would be really horrible at that time..
