Chapter 855: The Invitation

Translator: Henyee Translations   Editor: Henyee Translations

The first section of the family had expected the second section of the family to continue making a fuss about the situation, but to their surprise, it abruptly stopped.

They let out a collective sigh of relief, grateful for the respite.

Ms. Fang voiced her opinion, “l think that they must have realized that it is an unreasonable thing, and we won’t help them!”

Indeed, it seemed that the second section of the family had come to the same conclusion. Ms. Niu and Second Uncle approached the first section of the family once again, wearing guilty expressions and suggesting that they could proceed with marrying Shao Meiling off to the Yu Family instead.

Recognizing that they were all part of the same family, the first section of the family agreed readily, promising to support them if the Yu Family were to mistreat Shao Meiling.

Feeling reassured, the second section of the family then mentioned that Yu Xiaomiao would deliver the presents in three days and invited the entire family to join them for dinner. The purpose was to showcase the unity within the family and to instill some fear in the Yu Family, preventing them from seeking revenge.

Both Ms. Fang and Eldest Uncle agreed wholeheartedly.

With that, Ms. Niu and Second Uncle left with happiness in their hearts.

Yang Xiaoni couldn’t help but wear a smile as she addressed Qiao Xuan. “Did I misunderstand? Are Second Aunt-in-law and Second Uncle inviting the entire family for dinner? I thought it would only be our parents, Fifth Sister-in-law, and Fifth Brother!”

Qiao Xuan chuckled, acknowledging that her Third Sister-in-law had a point. The second section of the family wasn’t known for their generosity, so it was unexpected for them to invite the entire family instead of just the key members.

Considering the first section of the family had a large number of people, including children, it would certainly be a bustling affair.

Qiao Xuan jokingly remarked, “Maybe Second Aunt-in-law and Second Uncle are feeling quite guilty and want as many of us as possible to support them when facing the Yu Family!’

The idea sounded plausible to both of them.

Yang Xiaoni sighed and nodded in agreement, saying, “Indeed, Meiling is their daughter, and they want to ensure her future happiness.”

For the sake of their daughter’s happiness, attending one dinner was a small price to pay.

If it weren’t for the intervention of someone from the Yu Family approaching Ms. Fang and Shao Yunduan, the first section of the family would have held onto their belief all along.

Meanwhile, at the Yu Family residence, Ms. Niu made a secret visit to her future in-laws and shared her plan. Mrs. Yu was persuaded and agreed to the arrangement.

As long as they executed the plan effectively, it was crucial for Yu Xiaomiao to cooperate. He didn’t need to know the details, and he wouldn’t face any blame.

They were well aware of the advantages that came with marrying the sister of an official. Nobody in the village would dare offend them, and the official would always prioritize the well-being of his sister. While the Yu Family wasn’t inherently greedy, they wouldn’t pass up on such an opportunity for financial gain.

Upon receiving the Yu Family’s assurance, Ms. Niu felt elated.

It was an irresistible temptation that no one could refuse.

Officials needed to maintain strong connections with other influential families. After Taotao’s marriage, Shao Yunduan would no longer have a sister, and he would need to forge a marital alliance with another family. Meiling was the most suitable candidate for him to consider..
