Yun Jian’s retort was saying loud and clear that Yang Xiaochun was only an outsider. Who was she to be commenting and complaining about her family affairs?
Gossipers like Yang Xiaochun were plenty in farming villages while women who dressed themselves up as rich wives like Hua Yun, acting snobbish and superior, were a majority in the city.
In the past, most of the villagers were uneducated and uncultured. They said one thing in front of others and took to speaking ill about them behind their back. This was one of the major phenomena in farming villages—one of its specialties, even!
Yang Xiaochun was only a common village woman. She thought that it was nothing out of the norm to be carping about somebody else’s business. When she heard that Yun Jian was calling her a busybody, she was disgruntled immediately.
“Yirou’s daughter, Yun Jian, is it? Who am I? I’m your mother’s neighbor for at least a decade. I heard that you’re what—the director of New Cruise? You’re surely capable despite your young age!”
“But I have far more years of experience than you. Your mother is getting married for the second time and she’s making the wedding grander than some nice, innocent young women out there. This has never happened in Longmen City before!”
“I’m considering it for your mother’s own good! You’ll understand it in the future. I totally have your family’s best interest at heart!”
Although Yang Xiaochun was incredibly annoyed by what Yun Jian said, she held it in when she remembered that Yun Jian was the director of New Cruise and was said to be quite influential.
“Besides, you don’t throw away money like this even if you’re rich—unless you’re able to hold a wedding the whole Longmen City is unable to. Otherwise, with the money spent and the fact that your mom’s getting married for the second time, who knows what people will be saying!”
Seeing that Yun Jian said nothing, Yang Xiaochun thought that she had managed to convince the girl, so she spoke even more vehemently, thinking that she was making absolute sense.
People were all like this.
Qin Yirou was getting married for the second time. If her wedding was so grand that no one in Longmen City could compare to, words that spread in the future would be her second marriage being good luck, that she was lucky—because that was something no others could come parallel to and could only be jealous about.
However, if the wedding tomorrow was only a feast in a four-star hotel and was boasted around, people would get jealous and even think that Qin Yirou was getting conceited for making a bit more money at home.
These two things gave off completely different effects.
Nevertheless, Yang Xiaochun was certainly not making these considerations for Qin Yirou’s sake.
She was just jealous that Qin Yirou was able to find such a capable man in her second marriage and was resentful that she would have to watch her get married happily. Moreover, what she had said about “unless you’re able to hold a wedding the whole Longmen City is unable to”, it was not just Yang Xiaochun who was skeptical about Qin Yirou managing to do it.
Everyone there, including Qin Yirou herself, doubted if that could be done.
“We don’t need your unnecessary concern over what other people would say. I’d really believe that you have my family’s best interest at heart if you could leave now,” Yun Jian said standing in front of Si Yi with her arms crossed and looking superior to Yang Xiaochun.
Her intention to send her on her way was clear to everyone there.
“You...” Yang Xiaochun choked on her breath this time from what Yun Jian said. She pointed an angry finger at her and could not help shouting, “I’m being nice enough to want what’s good for your family yet you—alright! Fine!”
Yang Xiaochun then turned to Qin Yirou and repeated herself several times. “Yirou, I’ll wait to see how grand your wedding is going to be!”
