Switched Marriage The Coddled Little Wife novel Chapter 171

Chapter 171: Chapter 171: Perhaps Shouldn’t Have Switched Brides Initially

Lin Jiayi sarcastically spoke, "What could your brother possibly bring back for you so late at night? These are things from my parental home, sister-in-law, are you even eyeing what my family has given me?"

Li Hongmei also saw what was inside, realizing that her brother indeed wouldn’t go buy cooked food late at night.

Seeing Li Hongmei’s reaction, Lin Jiayi finally let out a sigh of relief.

During the day, this sister-in-law of hers was always full of sarcasm and mockery, as she, a married granddaughter, returned to her parental home and they didn’t even prepare decent meals to welcome her.

During the New Year, her brother and sister-in-law didn’t prepare festive goods either, making the whole family endure hardship.

Of course, she knew what her sister-in-law meant by visiting her parental home—it was merely to take advantage of them.

She didn’t want her sister-in-law to benefit or to have the last word, so she thought of going to Qin’s cooked food shop.

She wanted to bring something back from her parental home specifically to slap Li Hongmei in the face.

It wasn’t because her brother and sister-in-law made them live poor lives, but because the Li Family was inherently poor.

If it weren’t for her, Lin Jiayi, god knows what kind of life they would still be leading.

But who would have thought Lin Jiadong was so useless, going there once and only bringing back such a little amount, and even getting bought off by Lin Chuxia.

However, this little amount was enough to annoy her sister-in-law.

But then Li Hongmei just paused for a moment and snorted, "What’s so great about bringing some things? If you’re capable, open a bun shop yourself. Maybe if you hadn’t swapped the marriage, it would have been Li’s Bun Shop instead. Why are you so proud here now?"

Although Li Hongmei didn’t know exactly what happened originally, it didn’t stop her from provoking.

Sure enough, Lin Jiayi was deeply stung, and she shouted sharply, "Li Guangyuan, aren’t you going to control her?"

Li Guangyuan also felt that these past matters had been over for so long now, and it wasn’t appropriate for his sister to bring up marriage swapping.

Moreover, it was initially the second son of the Lin Family who wanted to swap marriages. If Lin Jiayi hadn’t agreed to the swap or had simply called off the marriage, perhaps he would still be single.

"Hongmei, what nonsense are you talking?"

But Li Hongmei didn’t want to let her off. Her life was not going well now, all thanks to this sister-in-law.

Everyone said that she wanted to marry someone from the city, and it was them who said that the other party was a self-employed person with many pigs, promising carefree food and drinks without in-laws to serve.

But after marrying, it turned out not to be the case at all. Except for her husband being really honest, they were so poor that they nearly couldn’t make ends meet.

The money from pig farming never reached their hands, and the income from farming the land was too little for the effort.

Her current situation was all caused by Lin Jiayi; how could she let her have an easy time?

"Am I talking nonsense? Brother, have a think, Daqing Mountain Village is right next to our village. Whether Lin Family favors their eldest or the second child, just inquire around. They say Lin Chuxia wanted to marry Qin Yang which is why they swapped, I think it’s because Qin’s Family looked down on her. When Lin Chuxia was in school, she was a well-praised student by teachers. If she had married you, maybe we would have been living well by now. Instead, fearing she couldn’t marry off, she swapped with Lin Chu for someone others didn’t want..."

"Shut up!"

Even though Li Guangyuan was usually good-tempered and conciliatory, he lost his temper this time.

Lin Jiayi’s face turned even more ashen.

"Li Guangyuan, if you don’t give me an explanation today, this isn’t over. Do you really think your Li Family is so desirable? Don’t you have any self-awareness? If not for me, you wouldn’t even be able to sell vegetables, and you’d still be suffering from famine, right?"
