The Problem with Marrying Rich: Out of the Way, Ex Chapter 1376

Chapter 1376: Don’t Wear Those Cheap Clothes Any More
He Xiyan was silent at this moment.
Her heart ached like a spasm.
She had no parents nor family members, but when that was mentioned by her mother-in-law, she still felt very sad.
She knew what she meant by saying that there was no need to go through those rituals.
Because according to traditions, the family of the bridegroom was supposed to give some money as dowry to the bride.
Li Qin suddenly opened her bag and took out two red packets, which looked relatively thick.
Of course, tens of thousands yuan was far less than a small sum for the rich family of Mo.
Li Qin stuffed both red envelopes into the hands of He Xiyan. With a frown, she said.
“This is from Yixuan’s father and me as a gift for our first meeting. You take it…”
(He Xiyan)…
He Xiyan blinked her eyes several times, looking down at the two big red packets beside him.
Of course, they simply looked thick. There was 50,000 yuan in each one. For ordinary families, 50,000 yuan was indeed a lot.
He Xiyan hesitated for a while, but still did not pick them up.
“Aunt, no need.” She said in embarrassment.
Money, as a material thing, did not really matter to her.
Even without money, she would earn herself. Even if she married into Mo family, she didn’t intend to stop working and making money.
A cold smile overflew Li Qin’s mouth.
“Take it.” She said, “What should be given to you will be given to you.”
The word Li Qin used was “give”.
In her view, the girl in front of her was just pretending. Probably as soon as she turned around, she would open the packets and start counting the money.

Li Qin took out another card, a golden one, in which there was about 500,000 yuan.
She also put the card in He Xiyan’s hands.
He Xiyan shook her hand immediately to refuse.
“Aunt, no, really no need,” He Xiyan did not understand what was wrong with Yixuan’s mother. What was this card for?
It seemed that she married into Mo family for money only.
Li Qin, “Take the card and go buy some clothes, shoes and bags. It’s for you to buy more new clothes. Now that you are the daughter-in-law of Mo family, stop wearing these cheap clothes. If you were seen by outsiders, they will think that our Mo family has mistreated you.”
(He Xiyan)…
He Xiyan was stunned. At this moment, she flushed suddenly.
She looked down at the clothes she was wearing.
In fact, she did not seem to be in cheap clothes. This was the new dress she bought recently, which cost more than 500 yuan. Although the shoes were not expensive, the quality and style were indeed quite good.
These were already the clothes that she thought were nice.
Of course, compared with what Li Qin wore, hers looked indeed cheaper.
He Xiyan thought for a moment, and finally accepted the card. She thought that she should go to buy some bags or something of big brands, not for any other reason, but for some banquets and activities she needed to attend together with Yixuan. In that occasion, she should always dress decently.
When Li Qin saw He Xiyan accept it, the corner of her mouth slightly lifted, sipping out a smile with some kind of irony.
“Aunt… I have something for you, too.” Xiyan suddenly remembered that she actually had bought some gift for Yixuan’s mother.
She quickly unzipped the bag and took out the small box, in which there was a brooch of palace style. It took her a long time to pick out that, which was very suitable for being pinned on scarves or scarves.
Li Qin took it over and cast a look, but immediately she handed it back to He Xiyan.
