Chapter 195 Hypocritical Occasion
He also gave a betrothal gift, contrary to his usual practice, but no one knows what was in the box. It was just that from the outside, it was still very glorious and respectable.
This time, when Mrs. Mo came to propose marriage, her attitude was still very sincere, completely different from her previous image of "evil mother-in-law". Wang Juan did not expose her, after all, it was her daughter who was going to get married, so she would definitely not make it too ugly. This time, she even smiled and took Mrs. Mo's hand and walked into the house, like a real sister.
But Wang Juan clearly wanted to eat Mo alive in the past because of what she said about her daughter, but now, she can actually compromise just so that her daughter can get married.
But this time, Wang Juan specially brought Mo to Wangjia Village and took a stroll on the official road. There were many stalls on the official road, including Shen Yan. Wang Juan deliberately let Mo see Shen Yan.
Especially the stall set up by Shen Yan. Wang Juan, who has always been stingy, was willing to spend money and bought all the snacks from Shen Yan and treated Mrs. Mo to them. At the same time, she also deliberately boasted about it.
"My dear, do you know who the girl who is setting up the stall is? She is not here today, so her subordinates are here to set up the stall for her." Wang Juan said with a beaming face, "This is my niece's stall. My niece is very capable. Although her parents died early, she sets up the stall to make money by herself, and she has invented many delicious foods. Her business is very good. But she has some misunderstandings about me. I have helped her so much over the years, but she has been misunderstood. Now she doesn't interact with our family much."
Wang Juan sighed as she spoke. Of course, she did it on purpose, just to reveal that Shen Yan was helpless and easy to manipulate, so that Mo would have other thoughts. Sure enough, Mo fell into the trap.
Mrs. Mo was originally dissatisfied with the daughter-in-law she was going to marry, and now she heard that Shen Yan was so good, so she had evil thoughts. Shen Yan had no one to rely on, and she could make money. If she was married to her family as a daughter-in-law, wouldn't she be at her mercy?
So, she quickly asked Mrs. Mo how old Shen Yan was and whether she was engaged. She found out that she was engaged, but Mrs. Mo thought it was nothing. Without the elders to arrange the marriage, she only needed to use a little trick to mess it up.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Mo no longer had the heart to go to Wang Juan's house for dinner. After strolling along the official road, she went home, feeling very happy.
Wang Juan thought, this is great, the plan has worked.
Wang Juan looked at Mo's back as she left, secretly feeling relieved.
She knew that her strategy this time had worked, successfully sowing the seeds of doubt and anxiety in Mo's heart.
By then, even if Mrs. Mo fails to succeed, she can still disgust Shen Yan and make her restless. Why not do it?
After all, although Mrs. Mo was sincere, she was bound by tradition and family values. She was quite obsessed with Shen Yan's background and independence, especially money.
After returning home, Wang Juan looked at Wang Tingting who was sitting in the hall waiting, and secretly felt lucky for her plan.
She knew that although Wang Tingting didn't know what she had just done on the official road, these arrangements undoubtedly gained her more initiative.
Seeing her mother coming back, Wang Tingting couldn't help but ask, "Mom, Mrs. Mo is here, why didn't she come home for dinner?"
Wang Juan smiled and shook her head, "Don't worry, everything is under control. The Mo family is very interested in Shen Yan's affairs. Soon, you will find out how powerful this trick is."
After hearing this, Wang Tingting's eyes flashed with worry. She knew that her mother was not a simple character, and her scheming and plotting often made people feel uneasy.
But she also understood that at this point, Wang Tingting had no other choice. She had to learn to take advantage. As long as she used it well, even the scheming Mo family would become her pawn.
During the few days in Wangjia Village, Wang Juan made careful plans and used various opportunities and occasions to continuously deepen Mo's impression of Shen Yan.
She arranged encounters and introductions again and again, which gradually increased Mo's favorability towards Shen Yan.
But Shen Yan herself was unaware of all this.
She has been concentrating on running her own stall and knows nothing about what is happening outside.
But Wang Lin was observing all this secretly, and she would not let go of the two vicious people, Wang Juan and Wang Tingting.
Time passed quickly, and soon it was Wang Tingting's wedding day. Her family held a grand wedding, but not many people came.
Wang Juan and Wang Lao Da used to set up a stall on the official road to sell bad things, which ruined their reputation and offended everyone in the village. Now, no one came to support their daughter's wedding.
Wang Juan was afraid that her daughter would be embarrassed, so she prepared a lot of wedding candies and scattered them on the street. All the children in the village came to grab the candies. This made Wang Tingting look not so ugly.
Shen Yan didn't want to join in the fun and would rather lie at home than watch Wang Tingting get married.
Wang Lin and Wang Jun naturally stood on their sister's side.
They also hated the people that Shen Yan hated. What's more, the two children had never forgotten how Wang Lao Da's family bullied them in the past. Therefore, the three siblings would only give in to soft tactics and would not go to Wang Tingting's wedding no matter how Wang Lao Da's family invited them.
Although Wang Tingting's wedding was quite grand, it lacked the participation of fellow villagers and seemed a little deserted. Wang Juan was inevitably disappointed and helpless. She had originally hoped to hold a lively and grand wedding for her daughter, but the reality made her feel frustrated.
Wang Juan stood in the yard, looking at her family members and friends sitting sparsely around the table, and felt a sense of emptiness in her heart.
She knew that her bad behavior and that of Wang Lao Da and his wife on the official road had led to such a result, and she felt deep in her heart regret and guilt for her mistakes.
Shen Yan chose to stay at home. She was unwilling to attend this wedding full of hypocrisy and mistakes.
She would rather be alone than be forced to participate in such hypocritical occasions again.
Wang Lin and Wang Jun naturally supported their sister's choice, but they also felt dissatisfied and disgusted with Mr. Wang's attitude.
Wang Juan realized that nothing she did could change Shen Yan and her siblings' minds.
They will not change their position because of the Wang family's fame or interests.
This made Wang Juan feel even more heavy-hearted, as she understood that the rift within the family could not be repaired in a short time.
Halfway through the wedding, Mr. and Mrs. Wang began to realize that Shen Yan and her siblings were not present.
Boss Wang was a little unhappy, but he knew that this kind of thing could not be forced.
They had been unfair to Shen Yan and her brothers and sisters, and now they could only accept the result.
In fact, Shen Yan had woken up a long time ago. Even if she was busy setting up the stall at home, she would not go to the front yard separated by a wall. There was no need to join in the fun, as it would be unlucky.
Shen Yan had made an appointment with Shopkeeper Li to go on a spring outing early in the morning, which could not be changed, so she got up in the morning and cooked porridge for herself.
