Switched Marriage The Coddled Little Wife novel Chapter 228

Chapter 228: Chapter 228: The Weasel Greets the Chicken with Ill Intent

Su Dazhuang entered with his wife and Su Wenmao, grinning as soon as he crossed the threshold, "Wensong, you didn’t even give us a heads up about your big day today. I only heard about your wedding from the neighbors. Your parents passed away early; if there’s anything happening at home, why did you keep us at arm’s length?"

Most of the colleagues who attended Wensong’s wedding today were from the Bun Shop and the cooked food courtyard. They all knew the Su Family situation well.

When the trio entered, the previously bustling hall quieted down.

Su Dazhuang seemed to have forgotten all past conflicts, walking forward with a smile while pulling out a red envelope from his pocket.

"Is this the bride? Meeting for the first time. This is a little gift from your uncle and auntie. Look at how lovely this little girl is. We’ve always known our Wensong is blessed. Now he has become a factory manager and married such a beautiful wife. Your parents’ spirits in heaven must be at peace."

Sun Lanlan glanced at the red envelope held up to her but didn’t take it.

Despite Su Dazhuang’s outwardly warm words, she didn’t miss the jealousy and resentment in Su Wenmao’s eyes beside him.

She had long heard from Wensong about how Su Wenmao’s relationship fell apart and his tendency to shirk work at the mechanical factory.

He was caught slacking off by Xu Changping not long ago and was promptly fired.

Xu Changping is now the deputy manager of the factory, and firing an intern like Su Wenmao was just a matter of a few words.

As the saying goes, a weasel’s New Year greeting to a chicken carries no good intentions.

Having been bullied by Su Dazhuang’s family so much before, Sun Lanlan had a bad impression of the entire family.

Still, they were ultimately part of the Su Family. Lanlan was unsure of what Wensong and Granny Su thought, whether they would consider familial ties or, due to the wedding, might not want to escalate the situation too badly and maintain a superficial facade.

Sun Lanlan’s refusal to take the envelope caused a momentary stiffness in Su Dazhuang’s smiling face, and Mrs. Su at his side immediately showed discontent.

"You child, how come you don’t know to accept a red envelope from your elder?" Coming from the countryside, being inexperienced in the world, not having any manners, what use is beauty?

Despite thinking this, she still took the red envelope from Su Dazhuang’s hand, intending to stuff it into Sun Lanlan’s hand.

For the sake of her and her son’s future employment, she still had to maintain appearances.

However, just as her hand was about to reach out, a large hand abruptly grabbed her wrist, stopping her action.

Following this large hand, she met Wensong’s gloomy gaze.

"What... what are you doing? This is a little token from your uncle and auntie. Let go, don’t make our new bride think it’s a joke."

"What uncle and auntie? I don’t recall having an uncle and auntie."

Upon hearing Wensong’s words, Su Dazhuang suddenly felt uncomfortable and at a loss for face.

"What nonsense are you saying? We of the Su Family are all from one branch. Do you not recognize your own blood uncle? On such a great joyful day, don’t let the townsfolk laugh at us," he said while signaling to Wensong with his eyes.
