Chapter 284 - Check My Ghost Son-in-law
Chapter 284: Check My Ghost Son-in-law
The next day, Li Sangyu woke up at the Zhao residence, ate breakfast and left. Father Zhao and Zhao Hongmei saw her out of the door. Before sending Li Sangyu away, Father Zhao still had some thoughts, so he found an excuse to send his daughter away. He then stepped forward and asked nervously, “Celestial Master Li, what do you think of my ghost son-in-law?”
Li Sangyu wondered why Father Zhao was asking this question. She felt a bit uncomfortable at the moment. Having eaten too much meat last night, she felt like throwing up. A bit of impatience flashed in her eyes as she said, “Uncle, what exactly do you want to ask? Or did something happen in your family recently? Hongmei’s complexion is rosy and you look good. By the way, is there something wrong with Aunt?”
Father Zhao quickly waved his hand and told her that he and Mother Zhao had quarreled over the ghost son-in-law, and she had gone back to her maiden home.
Li Sangyu said with a smile, “Uncle, I think that your son-in-law, Mr. Song, is a good man. You can’t treat him differently just because he’s a ghost. There are good and bad people, and there are also good and evil ghosts. I think Hongmei and Mr. Song’s feelings are very good. Uncle, don’t learn from other people and try to break them up. It’s not easy to be in love with a ghost, and you don’t know how much pressure Hongmei has been under. What’s more, if you find another son-in-law, do you think they can compare with Mr. Song? In any case, I think the most important thing is whether or not he is willing to treat Hongmei well! I know what you’re worried about, and I can guarantee you that Mr. Song is a good ghost, not an evil one. He doesn’t have black qi on him, which means he has never tainted a human life!”
The deepest worry in Father Zhao’s heart was completely swept away by Li Sangyu’s words. Father Zhao took the opportunity to give her a red packet. “Celestial Master Li, this is a small token of appreciation! If the Zhao family holds a wedding banquet in the future, we will definitely invite you!”
Li Sangyu nodded. “Of course!”
At that moment, Zhao Hongmei came out. “Dad, what else did you say to Celestial Master Li?”
Father Zhao hurriedly said, “Nothing!”
Zhao Hongmei didn’t pursue the matter, but said, “Dad, I’ll send Sangyu out! Stay at home!”
Father Zhao nodded.
After Father Zhao went back, Zhao Hongmei handed over another expensive box with a cordial face. Li Sangyu looked puzzled. Zhao Hongmei opened the box, and there was a very beautiful emerald necklace inside.
A greedy and pleased look flashed across Li Sangyu’s face, but she still feigned refusal. “Hongmei, what are you doing? What do you take me for?”
Zhao Hongmei had really put in a lot of effort this time. She had taken out her most favorite jewelry, which was worth tens of millions, but as the saying went, nothing ventured, nothing gained.
Zhao Hongmei’s heart ached a little, but her face didn’t change as she continued, “Sangyu, I know that you are pure and noble. You Celestial Masters don’t like to accept these things or money, but I really think we are fated; the more time we spend together, the more comfortable we become with each other. Also, you were the only one who supported me and Official Song at the beginning. Even my parents didn’t support me. You are the only one who knows me best. Last night, I talked to Official Song about it. We got together because of you, and he insisted that I thank you properly. This emerald jewelry is my favorite. I really think of you as my own sister, Sangyu. This is a token of my appreciation. If you refuse to accept it, that means that you look down on me and the Zhao family!”
Zhao Hongmei stuffed it directly into Li Sangyu’s hands after she finished speaking.
It was the first time that Li Sangyu had accepted such a valuable piece of jewelry, so she couldn’t help but feel a little nervous and happy. However, she really liked the jewelry which Zhao Hongmei gave her. She feigned reluctance, as if she was forced to accept it, but the more she looked at Zhao Hongmei, the more enthusiastic she became. “Hongmei, call me directly if you need anything in the future!”
“Sangyu, can you come to my house again for my birthday in a few days?”
“Okay! Hongmei, I’ll definitely be here!”
