My Stepmother is Soft and Charming

"Second uncle, don't worry, the main event is yet to come. My wife is doing this for my own good, so she doesn't take it personally."

Shang Wulang cast a look, and Wulang's wife's eyes were also full of affection.

It's a pity that this model fell in the eyes of everyone affectionately, but it is not worth the importance of Qiniang's wedding.

The first person to ask a question to break the deadlock was Mrs. Wu. She must still have a little bit of sympathy for her granddaughter.

So he asked with a frown.

"Wu Lang, don't be so pretentious, tell me quickly, why is it a good marriage?"

"Grandma, do you know how much the bride price will be if this concubine from Prince Min's palace is taken in?"

Mrs. Wu shook her head, and the others also didn't understand.

"Ten thousand taels, exactly ten thousand taels."

When they heard this, everyone present took a deep breath.

Even if they were bundled together, I'm afraid it wouldn't be enough to sell them for ten thousand taels.

Then joy burst out from everyone's eyes, especially the Fifth Old Master and his biological father Shang Yuding.

They all seemed to have thought about how they would spend the betrothal money after receiving it, and naturally their eyebrows were filled with joy.

Shang Qiniang was still crying sadly, but when she heard the bride price, she couldn't help but swallow her saliva.

It would be good if she could earn two or three taels of silver throughout the year.

Ten thousand taels, she never dreamed that she would have such an opportunity.

Suddenly, it seemed that King Min's age was not such a terrible thing.

The veil concealed the panic and confusion in his eyes.

What she was thinking about now was how she could save the bride price and take it away from these relatives who could eat people without spitting out their bones.

Among everyone present, the only one who felt heartbroken was probably her mother, Ms. Guo.

While hating her own incompetence, her three daughters were all married off like animals by the family members, but she didn't know how to refuse.

At the same time, I also feel sorry for my daughters. They can't meet their beloved. What kind of evil have they done?

It's a pity that the arm can't twist the thigh.

Even if she cries to death in this room, no one will care.

After all, when they heard about the bride price of 10,000 taels, no one cared about what would happen if Qiniang got married.

Everyone just wants to get things done quickly and then sit back and enjoy the results.

So the fifth old man didn't care about his shame. Even though this "grandson-in-law" was only ten years younger, he still thought it was a great marriage.

So, I asked again and again with excitement.

"Wu Lang, we are really looking forward to such a good marriage, so when will the palace come to offer you the invitation?"

The anxious look on his face was almost impossible to look at, but what he asked was something everyone wanted to know, so no one thought he was going too far.

When Shang Wulang heard this, his originally confident expression suddenly became a little embarrassed.

So he coughed twice before saying.

"Grandpa, don't panic. The matter has not yet been decided. Aren't I afraid that Seventh Sister might have concerns? That's why I rushed to send it home as soon as I heard the news. Therefore, the other end of the palace is not sure who it is. What a blessing it is to have this opportunity.”

Hearing this, everyone present seemed to have been splashed with cold water.

Especially Shang Yuding, he wanted to step on Shang Wulang a few times.

This would make the nephew who was all the limelight in front of his father feel comfortable being scolded a little more.

So he hurriedly said.

"After a long time, you can't let Qiniang enter the palace at all? Then what nonsense are you talking about here? It won't delay us all for a long time!"

The disgust in his eyes was enough to make him barely say the word "trash".

Shang Wulang and his second uncle were not at odds with each other. For such a good thing, if his biological sister Wuniang hadn't already gotten married, would Qiniang's turn come?

The second uncle didn't say he was grateful to him for sending the news back, but he still arranged this meal, which really made Shang Wulang a little angry.

I immediately wanted to quit, but Shang Yuan came out to smooth things over.

"Second brother, don't be anxious. Although the character has not been revealed yet, it is a good thing to know the news in advance. Otherwise, when the palace finds the person, we, Qiniang, will still have a chance to find him, right?"

After he said this, Shang Yuding became less angry.

On the other hand, the fifth old man scolded his eldest son in a protective manner.

"As a father, you don't even think about finding a good marriage for your daughter. Not to mention the tired Wu Lang who is running around outside, but you are still here picking and choosing the good and the thin ones. Humph, go back. I feel like an eyesore when I look at you!"

When he became angry, Shang Yuding's face turned blue and white.

Then he glanced angrily at his brother and nephew, and then walked away.

But he didn't leave any escape route for himself.

Anyway, he has no status at all in this family, so he might as well go out and drink wine.

So, he walked out of the gate of Yingjuan Courtyard without looking back.

Once he left, Mrs. Guo and Shang Qiniang had nothing to rely on.

Like two lambs waiting to be slaughtered, they were sitting on pins and needles here.

The butcher who was about to swing his knife at them seemed a lot more amiable.

For example, Shang Yu'an started to attack Mrs. Guo and said in a calm tone.

"Second sister-in-law, what do you think of Qiniang's marriage?"

Mrs. Guo has been married for so many years, but few people have asked her for her opinion, so she has long developed a reticence to speak.

"I, I, I..."

After talking for a long time, my face turned red, but I couldn't say anything.

Seeing that the fifth old man and his wife were very unhappy, they regretted marrying such a wife to their son.

It's because I can't give birth to grandchildren, and I can't speak eloquently.

It's of no use at all.

Therefore, Madam Wu Lao scolded her in a very disrespectful manner.

"I know how to cry all day long. It's no wonder that I can't win over this man. Look how much you have ruined Ding'er. Even the teacher said he was talented before. But since he married you, he has been in the imperial examination. You can't pass the exam, and neither can your son or your son. Bah, you are a harm to others, so you deserve to be divorced!"

When she said this, she scolded the already cowardly Mrs. Guo to the point where she could only shed tears.

Although Shang Qiniang also hated her mother's weakness, she still took good care of herself.

Therefore, although she was a little scared, she still helped and said to Mrs. Wu.

"Grandma, calm down. If this can happen, my granddaughter is willing to marry someone who can contribute to the family."

Hearing her statement, Mrs. Guo, a mother, burst into tears.

On the contrary, the expressions of Mrs. Wu and others relaxed a lot.

He said with some relief.

"Qiniang is a sensible and good child. It would be a great good thing if you can really get into Prince Min's Mansion. Even though Prince Min is older, he will definitely love you."
