Even though they were poor, they were still poor with dignity and couldn’t let others look down on them.

But Yang Xiaocui actually brought it up, not only brought it up but also showed such an envious expression, which made her quite repulsed.

This made Yang Qiu feel that even though she finally declined it, she was probably on the same path as Aunt Lan Hua.

Yang Qiu sighed inwardly, feeling that Yang Xiaocui really didn’t deserve her fourth brother, not because of her appearance, but because of her dealings and behavior.

Such a person, although they were about to become family, Yang Qiu didn’t want to engage much right now.

So she stood up and said to Yang Xiaocui, "It’s getting late, I need to go back."

"Ah, if you have things to do, go ahead, I’m really sorry to keep you chatting here." As soon as Yang Qiu was about to leave, Yang Xiaocui immediately said.

Anyway, she had said everything she wanted to, and she thought Yang Qiu would definitely pass the message to Yang Dong for her.

She even warmly sent Yang Qiu to the gate, watching her walk away before returning to the house.

Turning around, the smile that had been on her face while facing Yang Qiu immediately disappeared. She actually knew she shouldn’t have said those words, especially in front of the Yang Family, but she had no choice; facing Yang Daniu’s threat, she could only do this at this moment.

However, she had just tried hard to show in front of Yang Qiu that she couldn’t accept money or gifts. Yang Qiu seemed quite naive and probably wouldn’t notice anything, right?

Yang Xiaocui thought this was fine, but she didn’t understand Yang Qiu, just like she didn’t understand Li Chuntao.

Yang Qiu grew up in a similar environment, even one darker than hers.

For Yang Qiu to be like she is now, without straying in her thoughts, was already good, so how could she be naive?

Some people, some things, she saw clearly, she just didn’t talk about them.

At this moment, Yang Xiaocui didn’t know that her seemingly perfect behavior had actually left a poor impression on her future sister-in-law.

When Yang Xiaocui had invited Yang Qiu to her home, Yang Qiu didn’t mention it to anyone upon her return.

Originally, the family was against fourth brother’s marriage.

But the fourth brother insisted on marrying her, so if she mentioned anything bad about Yang Xiaocui at this time, it would only cause trouble for her fourth brother.

However, not mentioning it to the family didn’t mean not mentioning it to her fourth brother. She felt it necessary to have her brother pay attention to Yang Xiaocui’s character.

So when her fourth brother returned at night, she privately said to him, "Fourth brother, I saw Yang Xiaocui today. She told me her birthday is the day after tomorrow."

Yang Dong was momentarily stunned when he heard this, only to hear his sister speak again, "She seemed to fancy the silver hairpin on my head."

Upon hearing this, Yang Dong frowned and quickly asked, "Did she ask you for it?"

"No, she didn’t ask, but I feel she wants it." Yang Qiu’s point was to remind her brother that Yang Xiaocui had been hinting her interest in the hairpin inadvertently.

But Yang Dong didn’t catch on at all. He thought his sister was reminding him that since Yang Xiaocui’s birthday was coming up, he should get her a gift, and that the silver hairpin would do.

"Alright, I get it."

Yang Qiu thought her brother understood her point when he said that, so she continued, "She also said that third sister-in-law married into our family at fifteen, and after her birthday, she’ll be fifteen too. She said maybe she could find a way to get married soon. Fourth brother, I haven’t mentioned this to anyone else, you weigh it carefully yourself."
