Rebirth: The Courtyard Bride Is Cool and Radiant

Chapter 1071 - 1075: For Her, You Really Dare to Do Anything

Ye Family

During the New Year, all the family members returned to the old house.

Elder Master Ye knew that after the New Year, the Jiao Family would come to propose, so he specifically instructed his nephew Ye Bingkun: "Bingkun, you and your wife should pay more attention to Wen Yue’s matter. Since they’ve hinted, it’s best to prepare in advance."

He was aware of how unreliable his niece-in-law was, but no one could really bypass them when it came to Wen Yue. It was better to lay things out openly, sparing them from holding onto any false hopes.

Xia Dongxue glanced at Zhang Baoxiang. Previously, she had thought that since Wen Yue was raised by their side, they would provide some dowry as a consideration for those years of affection.

But unexpectedly, she overheard Zhang Baoxiang’s plan a few days ago. She shamelessly said, ’She’s only responsible for receiving the betrothal gifts. As for the dowry, that’s up to the Main Consort. After all, Wen Yue is marrying out from the third family, so to outsiders, it’s the third family that’s preparing the dowry.’

After thinking for a long time, she decided, apart from the open dowry, to privately give Wen Yue a red envelope as her personal savings. The Main Consort would not be involved in the dowry matter.

Ye Bingkun glanced at his wife and nodded to his uncle: "Uncle, we will definitely pay attention to Wen Yue’s matter, as we originally owe her."

Zhang Baoxiang was displeased upon hearing this: "What are you talking about? How do we owe her anything? Besides, over the years, she’s lived better than anyone in the Main Consort. You should know our family’s situation; we can’t pretend we’re something we’re not."

Upon hearing this, Ye Bingkun became furious: "Zhang Baoxiang, if you can’t speak properly, no one will mistake you for being mute."

Ye Wenhui immediately comforted the displeased Wen Yue: "Don’t listen to her nonsense. With Grandpa and Second Uncle here, she can’t stir up any trouble."

Wen Yue already knew this would be the outcome, but hearing her mother say such things in front of so many people, she was indeed hurt.

Xia Dongxue couldn’t stand Zhang Baoxiang’s demeanor and was about to speak when Ye Bingyu held her back: "Let’s see what Bingkun says."

What Zhang Baoxiang said was indeed true. Before the truth was revealed, Wen Yue was indeed the best-off one among the sisters, but that wasn’t thanks to the third family. Using this as an argument was truly baffling.

Ye Bingkun did not want to lose his temper during the New Year, but his wife’s actions were becoming increasingly absurd, and he could no longer tolerate it: "Zhang Baoxiang, if you keep this up, there’s no point in us living this life. What did Wen Yue do wrong for you to treat her like this?"

Zhang Baoxiang hesitated upon hearing this: "Our family’s situation isn’t as good as the Main Consort, and Wen Yue was pampered by them like a treasure since childhood. Now that she’s getting married, we should show something, and there’s nothing wrong with what I said."

Ye Bingkun felt powerless: "Zhang Baoxiang, you need to grasp the fact that Wen Yue is our biological daughter; she’s not the Main Consort’s responsibility. Regardless of how she lived before, we as her biological parents indeed owe her.

Now that she’s getting married, what’s wrong with making it up to her?"

Zhang Baoxiang said confidently: "But there’s no money left at home, what do you want me to do?"

Ye Bingkun became anxious and directly pulled her into the yard: "Where’s the money, where did it all go?"

Zhang Baoxiang felt somewhat guilty: "Wenjuan returned to the city, and you know her situation. A few days ago, she came to plead with me, and I softened up, giving her money to buy a job. She said she’d repay part of it monthly once she starts earning."

Ye Bingkun didn’t believe Zhang Wenjuan’s words at all, knowing that the money was surely gone: "For her, you really dare to do anything."
