Chapter 139: Chapter 139 She’s Great, I Really Like Her

Yang Ming set down his things, and saw Xiaoxiao begin to rummage through them.

"Dad, this wine is for you!"

"These pastries are for my little nephew!"

"This outfit, for my brother!"

"Mom, these two silver bracelets, one for you and one for sister-in-law!"

"And these other snacks, Mom, take them to the kitchen later."

Xiaoxiao had sorted through everything she had brought, her natal family was already well-off, so instead of giving silver, she bought food and other necessities.

"Girl, it’s fine that you come, but why buy all this, such a waste!" Xiaoxiao’s mother became worried upon seeing this, her daughter was already known for being spendthrift, and now she was acting like this in front of her son-in-law, how could this be acceptable?

"Mother-in-law, it’s not a waste, this is what a junior should offer as a token of respect!" Yang Ming quickly joined in, perceiving his mother-in-law’s intent.

Upon hearing Yang Ming’s words, Old Master Zhong’s expression finally softened, "Old lady, go cook, let our daughter learn some cooking skills with you, the son-in-law and I will be fine here!"

Xiaoxiao’s mother, hearing the old man’s command, promptly took her daughter to the kitchen. The family patriarch wanted to have a talk alone with the son-in-law, and had shooed them away.

Xiaoxiao didn’t intervene; let them talk about whatever they wanted to discuss, after all, she had seen that her father was powerful and on her side.

Yang Ming and Old Master Zhong were left alone in the room, Yang Ming was somewhat nervous, what could his father-in-law possibly want to talk about in private?

"Ahem! Ahem!" Old Master Zhong coughed twice, clearing his throat, "I heard you left my daughter at home the day after the wedding?"

Old Master Zhong also knew about the rough times his daughter had faced these past few days, how hard it must have been, and if the son-in-law were to treat her poorly, how much more aggrieved she would feel.

"..." How could he respond? He already knew he was wrong and regretted it deeply.

"Father-in-law!"

After he spoke, Old Master Zhong suddenly smacked the table.

"..." Why get angry before he even said anything?

Yang Ming was thinking about how to reassure his father-in-law when he heard Old Master Zhong say, "We are all country folks here; who are you being so proper with?"

"..." Yang Ming was stunned on the spot and then finally realized, "Father-in-law, oh, no, Dad! Your son-in-law knows his mistake!"

"Hmm!" Old Master Zhong nodded, then continued, "Our Zhong Family isn’t that kind of unenlightened family! If you still don’t like my daughter, you can divorce, and I’ll take her back and support her."

Divorce? He was just trying to scare Yang Ming! Given how his daughter stubbornly insisted on marrying Yang Ming, a divorce would be difficult! The wedding was over, and he could only hope his son-in-law would treat his daughter better. Besides, they couldn’t divorce; if they did, his daughter would be drowned in a sea of spit.

"Dad, I don’t want a divorce; I will definitely treat Xiaoxiao well from now on, you can be assured!" His wife’s family wanted a divorce, his wife’s natal family wanted a divorce, it seemed he really wasn’t that desirable.

"Hmph, you’d better keep your word!"

"Yes, Dad, I promise."

After receiving his son-in-law’s promise, Old Master Zhong’s tone finally relaxed. He still had to think about his daughter’s well-being, "Xiaoxiao is still young, straightforward in nature, but she’s not a bad person, she’s just naive, and that’s our Zhong Family’s doing! Just bear with her."

"Dad, Xiaoxiao is great, I really like her!"

"Then live your life well!"

"Yes!" Yang Ming heard his father-in-law’s approval and immediately agreed.

Before long, the meal was ready. Since brother and his family had come home, the four of them had a joyful dinner together. Yang Ming kept calling, ’Dad’ and ’Mom,’ which left Xiaoxiao in a daze; what had happened after talking with her dad that everything turned out this way? Could it be that her father had switched sides so quickly? What happened to the promised might?
