Chapter 23 The Bet

    Zhou Shiyue entered the door and saw her mother waiting for her, with a sweet smile on her face.

    "Is mother waiting for me? Didn't I tell you, I'm eating at Li's house, so you don't have to wait for me." Zhou Shiyue put down her things and came to Mrs. Zhou's side.

    "Did Jin Cheng send you back?" Seeing her daughter nod, Mrs. Zhou smiled and pulled her to sit beside her, "Although the heritage of the Li family is not as good as ours, it is also called a wealthy family, the old man of the Li family. The old lady has been planting flowers and grass in the suburban villages all year round. She seldom cares about the younger generation. I know Xue Ning, she is gentle and generous, and she is also easy to get along with. Jincheng, love needs to be cultivated, you haven't seen each other for ten days and a half, can you have feelings?"

    Of course this Zhou Shiyue knew, but what could Li Jincheng do if she didn't like her? Do you let her take the initiative every time? In any case, she is a lady, and the arrogance she has cultivated since she was a child does not allow her to please someone, not to mention that the Li family is not qualified to please her except Xue Ning.

    You can tell what she is thinking by looking at her expression, Mrs. Zhou sighed, "He is your future husband, so don't hold it all the time."

    Thinking of what Li Jincheng said during the day, Zhou Shiyue smiled and said, "It's just engagement, not marriage, who knows. In the future, you can see that Lin Jingxian of the Lin family broke off with Xue Yang of the Xue family, but now the age does not agree, women no longer depend on men, it is really not good, I also break off the marriage, I will only find better than Li Jincheng."

    Madam Zhou Frowning, "Have a conflict with Li Jincheng?"

    Why do you keep saying these angry words today.

    "No." Zhou Shiyue didn't plan to tell her mother this. "By the way, Aunt Xue asked Master Chen to make me two clothes and two sets of jewelry. Mom, do you look good?"

    She didn't choose anything from the material to the workmanship. Mrs. Zhou boasted a few words and opened the jewelry box. One set was a pearl head face. At a glance, it was seen that it was a natural seawater pearl, which was round and full, and all of the same size. It is an old craftsmanship, but the gloss of the pearls should have just come down this year, which is rare. The other set of rubies was handed down from the ancestors. It should be the dowry left by the old lady of the Xue family or Xue Ning's mother. I won't say how high the price is. After all, for their sake, money is a number, and there are not many intact heads that are mainly kept. Look at the gems above, and this craftsmanship is generally reserved for family heirlooms.

    "It seems that your future mother-in-law values ​​you very much, and the ruby's head says she will give it." If you didn't identify with your daughter-in-law, how could it be possible to send such an expensive gift.

    "Aunt Xue is really a good person." Zhou Shiyue said two more words to Mrs. Zhou, and returned to her room with her belongings.

    Lying in the bathtub and taking a bath, thinking of Li Jincheng, Zhou Shiyue snorted softly, and asked her if she loved him, and said that the two of them had no feelings, and they would not be happy when they got married. Hey, when I asked him when he waited, he said he didn't know, did Li Jincheng treat her Zhou Shiyue as a fool? He didn't want to get married and didn't terminate the engagement, he said wait, why should she wait?

    After Grandpa's birthday, if Li Jincheng doesn't give her an explanation, she will go to Grandpa Li and Aunt Xue.

    "Mom, I'm back."
