Li Yuer had a hundred thoughts in her mind, and Li Mingxia saw some clues, but Li Zhengde never even glanced at Li Yuer from beginning to end, as if this person did not exist.

"Brother Zhengde, did you bring anything for my aunt today?" Li Yuer suddenly spoke in a tender voice.

He was not talking to Li Mingxia, but was going to Li Zhengde. This made Li Mingxia even more certain that there was nothing wrong with his previous thought.

This Li Yuer definitely had some ideas about her own brother, but as far as I can remember, Li Yuer looked down on Li Zhengde. She had bullied Li Zhengde countless times, both openly and secretly. In order to please Li Zhengxue, she even humiliated him in front of Li Zhengde.

How could such a person look at Li Zhengde differently if Li Zhengde's life had not become better?

In the final analysis, it is money that moves people.

Although Li Mei'e thought that the cloth sent by Li Mingxia was actually quite good, she still felt it was not enough because it was given by Li Mingxia.

When he heard Li Yuer say this, he immediately said, "Just look at him, he's so stingy, how can I expect him to spend money to buy things for me?"

However, even though she said that, could Li Mei'e still not have any hope in her heart?

I definitely hope to receive something from Li Zhengde.

However, this will definitely disappoint Li Mei'e. Even if Li Zhengde throws the money into the water, he will never give it to Li Mei'e.

If you throw it into the water, you can still hear a sound, but if the item is bought for Old Lady Zheng and Li Mei'e, then it will only result in endless disgust, scolding, and dissatisfaction, as well as never-ending demands.

In the past, Li Sanlang did not realize this point clearly, and he had done many thankless tasks.

Treating them with all your heart is of no use at all, and you are always blamed for being useless.

"Didn't my sister just say that? That is the gift from our family. Isn't it enough? I don't know that you, Li Yuer, have such a good relationship with my aunt. What did you give to add to the dowry?" Li Zhengde said impatiently.

He had already determined in his heart that Li Yu'er was deliberately looking for trouble, so there was no point in him pampering her.

"From what you said just now, I think you must have given gifts to everyone in your family. While everyone is here, point out what you gave so that everyone can take a look and broaden their horizons." Li Zhengde snorted coldly, with no intention of letting Li Yuer go.

He could see the embarrassment and helplessness on Li Yuer's face, but so what?

Wasn’t I in the same situation back then?

And seriously speaking, he was just using Li Yuer's words to retaliate against her, and he didn't bring up old grudges or talk about things in the past. Why did Li Yuer look like she was about to cry even after this?

Li Zhengde felt that Li Yuer was pretending to cry.

A woman with such fragile psychological endurance would not be able to say so many heart-wrenching and vicious words, so Li Zhengde would not believe that Li Yuer was really sad at this moment.

After all, regardless of whether there is a comparison or not, I am just discussing the matter objectively and I am not being mean to anyone. What is there to cry about?

My sister said something very interesting.

The one who flirts first is cheap.

If she hadn't come over and said these words to me, I wouldn't have fought back, right?

"Take it out, cousin Yu'er, what are you waiting for? Didn't you say before that we are poor and unworthy to be compared with you? We don't have anything presentable to prepare as a second gift, but cousin Yu'er must have it, right?" Li Zhengde looked at Li Yu'er and then at Li Mei'e.

"I remember that you and my aunt have a very good relationship. The gift you sent today must be one-of-a-kind, right? Otherwise, wouldn't it be like you don't take my aunt seriously? That would hurt my aunt's heart." Li Zhengde added the last sentence in surprise, staring at Li Yuer with curiosity, probing and suspicious eyes, waiting for her to speak.

When others came to add to the dowry, Li Mei'e and Old Lady Zheng would put it on the kang after looking at it. This was to let those who came to congratulate see together what others had given. They could also ask about the dowry and explain who gave it. This could be considered another kind of decency.

If someone gives a gift of the best quality, the married girl will show it off to everyone, which makes her feel proud, and the person who gave the gift also feels proud.

Logically speaking, whether it was the cloth sent by Li Mingxia or the hairpin sent by Li Mingyu, they were the best and most presentable gifts Li Mei'e had ever received. However, Li Mei'e did not say a word of thanks. As for showing off? Don't even think about it.

"Yes, Yu'er, you just gave me two handkerchiefs? Do you have any good things that you deliberately hid from you, wanting to give me a surprise? Don't hide it, take it out now, and don't let those people laugh at us." Li Mei'e asked with a serious face.

She touched the two handkerchiefs placed beside her legs. The embroidery was okay and they were made of silk. But no matter how beautiful the embroidery was or how silky it was, they were still two handkerchiefs.

When she was in town, she saw someone selling this kind of handkerchief in a fabric store. The total price was no more than fifteen coins. Even if Li Yuer said that she didn't buy it, but embroidered it herself, so what? Wouldn't it still be only worth fifteen coins? It wouldn't become one hundred and fifty taels of silver!

Originally, she thought that these two handkerchiefs were pretty decent things among the pile of rags, but now after being reminded by this kid Li Zhengde, Li Mei'e came to her senses.

Just now, Li Yuer hinted to her that he should not forget her after he gets married. She was coaxed into agreeing to give her a beautiful piece of jewelry in a few days.

A beautiful piece of jewelry in exchange for just two handkerchiefs?

Li Mei'e suddenly felt like she was being wronged. How could this be possible?

Li Yuer was sweating coldly when she saw Li Mei'e's unhappy look.

She was not afraid of Li Mei'e. On the contrary, she thought Li Mei'e was stupid, hopelessly stupid.

But Li Mei'e married Huang Qianli. Who wouldn't envy such a good thing?

In fact, Li Yuer already had a plan in mind. As long as she got along well with Li Mei'e, she would be able to get any jewelry she wanted in the future. But could Li Mei'e's brain react to her thoughts?

So Li Yuer flattered Li Mei'e in every way, saying everything nice and just what Li Mei'e wanted to hear.

Soon, I was promised a piece of jewelry.
