Chapter 299 - 298: Shen Xiangnan’s Wedding Banquet, Another Uproar
Shen Xiangnan’s wedding was even more lively and grand than his first one.
Not only did he have the highly impressive dowry of "three turns and one sound" that’s customary in rural weddings, but the house Shen Xiangnan lived in was also renovated inside and out.
The walls were whitewashed, the floor neatly paved with stone tiles, and even the wardrobe and dressing table were replaced with new ones.
From Jia Yuemei’s perspective, Shen Mingzhu could understand.
After all, the bride is a maiden of marriageable age, marrying a middle-aged man who has been married once already was quite a disadvantage, let alone using the ex-wife’s old belongings, any woman would feel uncomfortable about it.
However, these matters had nothing to do with Shen Mingzhu.
As the sister-in-law, she sat in the bridal room for a while, gave Jia Yuemei a silver bracelet, and then excused herself to leave.
No sooner had she left than the relatives from both the Jia family and the Shen family began to nitpick over the gift she had given.
The relatives from the Shen family, naturally stood by Shen Mingzhu, praising her for giving a nice bracelet and for being a generous sister-in-law.
However, the relatives from the Jia family thought the opposite. Shen Mingzhu had given two large pieces of new furniture to a younger brother-in-law on her elder sister’s husband’s side, especially the wardrobe, which cost at least seventy or eighty yuan.
