Master Head of the Dragon Soul novel Chapter 178

Zhou Ying kept waving her hand. “No, aunty, this is not what I meant.”

The other two aunties fanned the flames. “You’ve not even gone through the door to our family and you’re throwing a tantrum already. What? Do you think the Sun family is mistreating you? It’s not too late to regret.”

“Mingxuan, were you the one who taught your wife to talk like this? Tsk tsk. She would bring glory to the Sun family indeed.”

Sun Mingxuan was caught in the middle and he felt very awkward. He could only tug on Zhou Ying’s clothes and say in a low voice, “Yingying, quick, apologize to mum.”

Although Zhou Ying felt wronged, she was outnumbered and thus could only lower her head and said, “Aunty, sorry. It was my fault.”

“Alright alright, I can’t afford to accept your apology.”

Tang’e was very happy and satisfied. Twisting her waist, she happily went shopping with her two sisters. She was in a very good mood.

This kind of woman had to be put in place. Otherwise, once she joined the family, she would cause trouble and not respect the Sun family’s matriarchs.

Zhou Ying bit her red lips and took a deep breath. She tried to comfort herself, saying to herself, “It’s your big day. Don’t get angry.”

While they were shopping, very soon, Zhou Ying got attracted by a diamond necklace.

The necklace had a unique design. It was stylish and a good match to Zhou Ying’s personality. She already had fantasies in her mind of wearing this necklace to attend the wedding ceremony as her relatives and friends wished her happiness.

“This one, Mingxuan,” said Zhou Ying as she tugged on Sun Mingxuan’s arms.

Sun Mingxuan stopped walking and took a glance at the price. It was five hundred and eighty thousand. The edge of his mouth started twitching.

How could a mere necklace be so expensive? If he bought the whole set, it would cost at least three to five million; he started to hesitate.

Zhou Ying felt grieved. She was disappointed and her heart ached.

She really liked that necklace; a person gets married only once in a lifetime, so she wanted to look as beautiful as possible so that she would not have any regrets.

Furthermore, Zhou Lie spent three million in dowry for their daughter, which was nearly the old couple’s lifetime of savings. On top of that, half of the thousand acres of commercial land that they got back from the Chamber of the Four Seas had been given to the Sun family to manage. That was practically a cash cow; purely rental alone would come up to more than a million a year.

And now, they wouldn’t even buy her a necklace that cost a few hundred thousand.

The more Zhou Ying thought of it, the more frustrated she got. She couldn’t take it, so she picked up her courage and said, “Aunty, I remember that my father gave the Sun family three million worth of cash as dowry. I…”

Before she could finish speaking, Tang’e, who was standing there, got angry. It was as if somebody had rubbed her the wrong way. “What do you mean? Are you saying that the Sun family covets your money? That’s so funny. Please know your place. Your family is so insanely poor, so what is there to covet?”
