Ms. Yan sneered inwardly, but showed no expression on her face. She smiled apologetically and went to sort her dowry boxes.
Ms. Zhang was so angry. She snapped. "I have no dowry and I have nothing to give Mom. But you are different, Fourth Sister-in-law. You are trying to shut Mom up! You are so stingy! Look at the Fifth Sister-in-law! She offers her things to cousins and Eldest Aunt all the time!"
"Just shut up!" Ms. Niu snapped. "You also know that you have nothing to give me, right? I have never asked you to. As long as you don't move stuff to your family, I would be assured."
Ms. Niu suddenly realized that even though Ms. Yan did not offer her dowry, she would at least not take things to her own family. The Yan Family were very generous in giving out stuff, and they would benefit more in the future. She did not have to eye her daughter-in-law's dowry now. They could talk about this in the future.
Like she said, she would offer it when their family ran into problems.
Ms. Zhang, who had tried to irritate Ms. Yan, got lectured by Ms. Niu instead. She felt furious but could not counter her. So she nodded timidly.
Ms. Zhang went to the garden to pick vegetables, and Ms. Yan followed behind, smiling at her. "Hello, Second Sister-in-law!"
Ms. Zhang was startled. She clapped her chest to calm herself down.
She glared at Ms. Yan, and responded sarcastically. "You are here, Fourth Sister-in-law. What are you doing here? Mom gives me so much work to do, but nothing to you. Did you find that unfair, so you came to help me share the burden?"
Ms. Yan smiled. "Mom has her own reasons to arrange our work loads. You can speak with her if you are not happy about it. There is no point in talking about it with me. It is not up to you to judge whether I work or not. I don't think I am doing anything wrong."
Ms. Zhang did get much more work to do as per Ms. Niu's arrangement. But Ms. Yan was not idling around either.
The Yan Family loved their daughter but they had raised her well.
That was why the Yan Family did not marry her off earlier. They thought that she was very nice and smart.
Ms. Yan did not think that Ms. Niu was wrong in getting her to do extra work, since Ms. Zhang kept thinking about stealing stuff from her husband's home and giving them to her own home.
Ms. Zhang turned furious, and threw the basket on the floor. She said coldly, "What do you want, Yan Jiao?"
"That is my question to you, Second Sister-in-law!" Ms.Yan's smile faded.
Her face turned cold and she said, "I have just got married and never offended you. Why are you so hostile towards me? You even asked Mom to take control of my dowry. What is your intention, Second Sister-in-law?"
Ms. Zhang's face changed immediately. "You… You…"
"I heard your conversation." Ms. Yan sneered. "I am not giving my dowry away to anyone, so Second Sister-in-law, drop your idea. You don't have to like me and we can just go separate ways. But if you ever dare to play tricks behind my back, I will let you know what I am capable of."
Having said that, Ms. Yan threw a cold glance at her and left.
Ms. Zhang shivered with anger. "How dare she! This bitch, this arrogant bitch!"
Ms. Zhang was angry at Ms. Yan and the first section of the family, too. The first section of the family must have taught her to behave , since they spent so much time together..
