After speaking, Mama Lu was about to return to the kitchen when Eldest Sister Li hurriedly pulled her back. She looked at Mama Lu as if she was an idiot. "I say, Younger Sister-in-law, are you stupid? Jiang Yao has already married into the Lu family. She belongs to the Lu family. How can her dowry not belong to the Lu family? You're her mother-in-law. If you ask for it, how can she refuse? "
"We, the Lu family, don't have the hobby of seizing our daughter-in-law's dowry. What's mine is mine. Even if we're a family, we should separate things clearly. Although I'm her mother-in-law, I'm a reasonable mother-in-law!" Mother Lu shook off Eldest Sister-in-law Li's arm. She was nothing. Her sister-in-law had said that she wanted to borrow it. If she could return it, then the sun would rise from the west.
It wasn't as if she hadn't been taken advantage of when she was young. When she first married Old Lu, her sisters-in-law often came to borrow things from her. A foot of cloth today, a basket the next day, a jar of salt the day after. They had never returned anything.
After she figured it out, she never lent anything to her family again.
She learned from her mistakes. Now, she didn't even borrow salt, much less Jiang Yao's dowry.
"Then call Jiang Yao down. We'll borrow from her." Eldest Sister Li was certain that Jiang Yao wouldn't refuse the request of her elders. She was a young daughter-in-law who had just married into the family. She had to be controlled.
"She's going upstairs to rest. We can't disturb her." Mama Lu refused and turned to enter the kitchen.
Eldest Sister Li glared at Mama Lu indignantly. Then she looked at Second Sister Li. "What do we do?"
Li Qing didn't care whether Jiang Yao was resting or not. She shouted from downstairs, "Cousin-in-law! Cousin-in-law! My mother and auntie are looking for you. Come down quickly! "
Jiang Yao didn't miss a single second of what happened downstairs. When people were shameless, they were invincible.
She opened the door and walked out. However, she didn't go downstairs. She stood on the second floor and asked lazily, "What's the matter?"
"Auntie wants to borrow your sewing machine, and my mother wants to borrow your bicycle," Li Qing blurted out.
Jiang Yao stood on the second floor and smiled at everyone. Under the expectant and confident gazes of the three, she slowly opened her mouth and said, "No." Then, under the astonished gazes of the three, she slowly walked back to her room and slammed the door shut.
Even Mother Lu couldn't be bothered to deal with her, so she didn't need to.
When Jiang Yao returned to the room, Lu Xingzhi happened to walk out of the bathroom. His whole body was dripping wet. He only had a bath towel wrapped around his waist. With one hand holding a towel to dry his hair, he asked, "Who's here?"
"First Aunt, Second Aunt, and Li Qing." Jiang Yao shrugged inelegantly. "She took a fancy to my sewing machine and bicycle. She wanted to borrow them from me, but I refused."
Just as Jiang Yao finished speaking, the door to the room suddenly opened. The next second, Li Qing appeared at the door and said angrily, "Jiang Yao, how can you do this? Would it kill you to borrow something you don't need? You're so petty … "
Li Qing stopped abruptly before she could finish her sentence. She saw the cold look in Lu Xingzhi's eyes, which seemed to be able to choke her to death.
"Get out!" Lu Xingzhi didn't hide his anger at all. As he spoke, the table lamp on the bedside table flew toward the door. Li Qing, who was dumbfounded, couldn't dodge in time. The table lamp hit her shoulder and she screamed in fright. After the table lamp hit her, it exploded at her feet. The loud sound startled the people downstairs and they hurried upstairs.
