The Poisonous Wife: Cute Baby Comes to Rebirth with Me

Just as the two daughters-in-law were talking, a servant came hurriedly, with a strange look on his face, as if he was feeling a bit embarrassed.

He cleared his throat and reported in a low voice: "My lady, the betrothal gift sent by the Marquis of Wu'an is a little different. They... they sent two roosters."

As soon as these words were spoken, the eldest daughter-in-law and the second daughter-in-law looked at each other with an expression of disbelief.

The eldest daughter-in-law couldn't help but ask back: "Rooster? Are you sure you heard it right? Why would you give a rooster as a betrothal gift?"

The servant nodded and explained, "Indeed, these two roosters are now kept in the backyard. It is said that Uncle Li Dui personally received them."

The two daughters-in-law were confused and decided to go to the backyard to check it out themselves.

When I arrived at the backyard, I saw two roosters in the fence. Their feathers were sparse and they looked quite disheveled.

Seeing someone approaching, the roosters fluttered their wings and made shrill cries.

The eldest daughter-in-law's face darkened and she said angrily, "This Wu'an Marquis's Mansion is really too much! Giving wild geese as a betrothal gift is a tradition, which symbolizes the deep love between husband and wife. How could someone give a rooster? This is clearly an insult to the Censorate!"

The second daughter-in-law was also very angry: "What is the intention of the Wu'an Marquis Mansion? Are they trying to say that our Yunxi doesn't have the gentleness of a girl?"

The servant explained in a low voice: "Uncle Li Dui...he has never married and knows nothing about marriage. When the other party said it was a betrothal gift, he asked someone to accept it."

The two daughters-in-law became even more angry after hearing this and decided to go to the wife of Marquis Wu'an to argue.

When I arrived at the front hall, I saw the wife of Marquis Wu'an drinking tea and chatting with a noble lady. The atmosphere seemed quite harmonious.

Seeing the two daughters-in-law coming in, Madam Wu'an stood up with a look of apology on her face: "Madams, I am so sorry.

Due to the haste of the wedding, some mistakes were made in the betrothal gifts. This was not my original intention, and I hope the two ladies will forgive me."

The eldest daughter-in-law said coldly, "Madam Zhao, if you give a rooster as a betrothal gift, wouldn't it be a joke if it got out? The marriage between our Yushi Mansion and Wu'an Marquis Mansion is a blessing for both families. Now we are unhappy because of this small betrothal gift, which is really not what I want."

The wife of Marquis Wu'an smiled awkwardly and explained, "You two ladies, you may not know that the fact about the rooster is a misunderstanding. I originally intended to send wild geese, but something unexpected happened in the mansion, so I had to use a rooster instead. I hope you two ladies will understand."

The second daughter-in-law was even more angry when she heard this: "Madam Zhao, are you playing tricks on us? Giving away a rooster as a gift is a humiliation to our Lin family. How can you humiliate our princess, a princess of wealth and beauty, at will?"

Seeing that the situation was not good, the wife of Marquis Wu'an hurriedly said, "Please calm down, madams. This matter is indeed the fault of our Marquis Wu'an Mansion. I will quickly make up for it by giving the wild geese as a betrothal gift to show my sincerity."

However, the two daughters-in-law were already angry and would not listen to her explanation. The eldest daughter-in-law said coldly: "Since Madam Zhao thinks that this marriage can still go ahead, please make up for the missing things today. Today is a good day for the engagement, how can it be delayed?"

Seeing this, the wife of Marquis Wu'an knew that it was useless to continue talking, so she stood up and said to the noble lady, "Aunt, let's go."

The noble lady glanced at her two daughters-in-law, sighed, and left with the wife of Marquis Wu'an.

The two daughters-in-law stood in the hall, their faces turning blue with anger.

They knew that if what happened today were to be spread, it would become a laughing stock.

And all this was thanks to the wife of Marquis Wu'an.

Back in the room, the two daughters-in-law became angrier the more they thought about it.

The eldest daughter-in-law said angrily, "This wife of Marquis Wu'an is so abominable! When has our General Lin's Mansion ever been humiliated like this? If today's incident gets out, how will our Yushi Mansion and General Lin's Mansion maintain their dignity?"

The second daughter-in-law was also furious: "Yes! She is clearly deliberately humiliating us. The Wu'an Marquis's Mansion is too arrogant! I will never let this matter go!"

The two daughters-in-law discussed for a long time and decided to ask the old lady to negotiate the matter with the Wu'an Marquis Mansion.

They believed that the old lady would definitely find a way to get a satisfactory answer from the Wu'an Marquisate.
