Chapter 429 There's work to be done!
Apart from Xiaotian, who was a member of the bride's family, crying loudly, Yao Shula and Lei Jingwu's wedding went quite smoothly.
Although many people who were on good terms with the Lei family did not know Yao Shula's background, after a banquet, everyone had a preliminary impression of Yao Shula.
rich!
She's really rich; even Lei Jingwu isn't as rich as the person he found.
pungent!
Although she looks thin and gives the initial impression of being gentle and beautiful, other brides follow in the footsteps of their grooms when they get married.
But Lei Jingwu's eldest grandson followed his bride everywhere she went, and he could only nod in agreement with whatever she said.
Everyone realized that this bride was a formidable woman.
Furthermore, both Grandpa Lei and Lei Jingwu's mother greeted the bride with smiles and were completely unpretentious.
Later, someone summarized it as follows: the eldest sister-in-law will most likely be the head of the Lei family in the future.
...
After the wedding, there was a whole host of things to do. Yao Shula realized that the only difference between being married and not being married was that there was someone else next to her when she slept.
No, to be more specific, there should be an extra man.
I used to often sleep in the same bed as Shuxin.
To be honest, Yao Shula also felt that there was a big difference between sleeping in the same bed with a man and sleeping in the same bed with a woman.
Sleeping in the same bed with Shuxin meant we'd just chat under the covers.
Sleeping in the same bed with Lei Jingwu... we couldn't chat, and it was exhausting.
However, Yao Shula was very satisfied; Lei Jingwu was not just a pretty face!
Aside from the fact that the villa was where the two of them stayed after the first day of the wedding, Xiao Tiantian came to check up on them just one day later.
He wanted to check if his older sister had been bullied, and if his brother-in-law had pulled her hair again.
Seeing Yao Shula's rosy complexion, Xiao Tiantian finally felt relieved.
"Big sister, I'll come visit you every few days from now on." Xiao Tiantian glanced at Lei Jingwu as she said this.
Yao Shula had no objections. Anyway, there was a room for Tiantian on the third floor, so he could come and stay if he wanted!
"Alright, let's eat! After we finish eating, we still need to take Shuxin to the airport."
"Mom said she's taking Shuli back to Shenzhen, or she's sending Shuli from Shenzhen to Hong Kong, right?" Yao Shula asked Lei Jingwu.
Feeling a little uneasy under Xiao Tiantian's glare, Lei Jingwu quickly nodded.
"Yes, Mom is going back tomorrow. She asked Shuli to go with her. That's good. With my mom around, it will save a lot of trouble."
Yao Shula breathed a sigh of relief.
"That's fine. Grandma and the others are leaving in a couple of days. I'll let them spend a couple of days sightseeing in Shanghai. My eldest uncle and aunt are leaving tomorrow."
Today, Shuli accompanied her uncle and aunt to go out for a stroll.
"I'll see my uncle and aunt off tomorrow!" Yao Shula made the arrangements immediately.
Lei Jingwu nodded, then gently tugged at Yao Shula's sleeve.
"Tonight... I'm going to have dinner at Grandpa's place. There's something going on at my second aunt's house."
Yao Shula was about to say, "What does your second aunt's family's business have to do with me?"... But then she realized, oh, she and Lei Jingwu are already married, she's the eldest sister-in-law in Lei's generation...
"Okay, then let's go back in the evening!" Yao Shula had no choice but to nod.
After that, Yao Shula got busy again.
Watching Xiaotian go to class, and then go back to his old courtyard to visit Grandma Yao and his cousin, she secretly slipped Yao Shuli a lot of money, telling him to be proactive in paying when he accompanied his uncle and aunt shopping...
I also need to sort out the money I gave as gifts at the wedding.
Which items belong to Lei Jingwu, which belong to Lei Jingwu's parents' network of relationships, and which belong to the Lei family patriarch—all of these need to be clearly noted separately.
By the time everything was finished, it was already afternoon.
After spending some time at the clothing store and being teased by Gu Xiaoman, Lei Jingwu came to pick Yao Shula up to go to the Lei family's old house.
...
"Your second aunt's family needs to see me? Are they trying to give me, their new daughter-in-law, a hard time?" Yao Shula asked with a smile.
Lei Jingwu smiled and shook his head.
"No, this matter originally had nothing to do with you, but Grandpa wanted you to establish your authority."
Jingqiu graduated from university this year, didn't he? This kid... although he's the same age as Shuxin, he also took the college entrance exam in the same year as Shuxin.
But Shuxin became the top scorer in the city, while that kid... not only failed the exam, but also had to repeat the year for two years before finally passing.
Fortunately, the school I got into was pretty good, so it wasn't too embarrassing.
He graduated this year and will be starting work soon. His grandfather had arranged for him to work at the Bureau of Industry and Commerce, but the kid... seems unwilling.
My second aunt also felt that working at the Industry and Commerce Bureau was not a promising career path, and that it would be better to go to the tax bureau or the power and tobacco industries.
To be honest, sending Jingqiu in isn't a big deal, but Grandpa has his own reasons.
That day, my second uncle was pressured by my second aunt to talk to my grandfather, saying that he wanted to change Jingqiu's work unit or something, and wanted my grandfather to make a phone call for him.
In the past, Grandpa would have agreed.
But we just got married, right? Grandpa told my second uncle that my second aunt had asked me about this matter. If she had, and it was decided, then I would ask you to talk to Grandpa.
Grandpa meant that not just anyone should come to him; let those people come to you first to talk about these things.
Then, once you and I agree, we'll tell Grandpa!
"Alright, eldest granddaughter-in-law of the Lei family, it's your turn today!" Lei Jingwu joked.
Yao Shula responded with an "oh".
The Lei family is indeed full of troubles. Now it's about her brother-in-law's job, and who knows what his wedding will be like in the future... Yao Shula suddenly felt a little scared. How many things like this will she have to face in the future!
"Won't you come to me for everything from now on?" Yao Shula was a little worried.
Lei Jingwu turned to look at Yao Shula, but quickly turned back to look at the road ahead.
"I have absolute confidence in you. I'm sure you can handle this matter well. Once this is resolved, no one will dare to bring any more messy things to you."
They wouldn't dare!
"Oh, so I can say whatever I want today?" Yao Shula asked.
Lei Jingwu nodded with satisfaction.
"Yes, use the same methods you use to deal with others to deal with them! I believe in you."
Yao Shula chuckled.
The way he said that made it sound like he was practically begging to take out the cleaver like he had dealt with Yao Guohua...
However, she genuinely didn't know where the kitchen was in the Lei family's old house. She'd better go check it out today; she didn't want to be unable to find a suitable weapon when she lost her temper...
Soon, the car stopped in front of the Lei family's house.
