Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space Chapter 677

The day after the final exams, Han Chaoxu and Chu Zhenhua’s engagement arrived.

Xinyan also followed and went along.

When they arrived, Chu Zhenhua quietly reminded, "My dad and my stepmom are here."

At first, Chu Honglin, Chu Zhenhua’s father, didn’t want to come, but later, after hearing about the Han Family’s financial situation, his later wife, Cao Sanmei, managed to persuade him to change his mind.

Not only did they come, but the daughter brought into the Chu Family, Bai Xiaoxue, also followed along.

Regarding this, Chu Zhenhua’s second uncle and aunt were a bit helpless. Initially, when they asked Chu Honglin to come, he said he was busy with work and had no time.

He also said that he hadn’t cared much about Chu Zhenhua’s matters since she was little, and let his brother Chu Hongsen be in charge, hinting that he wanted a share of Chu Zhenhua’s engagement gift.

He almost caused his brother Chu Hongsen to fall out with him.

But that later wife, while chatting with acquaintances, discovered that her stepdaughter was marrying into a family of considerable status and wanted to smooth relations, hoping to make use of this connection in the future.

So, in a rush, she pulled everyone along, not forgetting to bring her own daughter as well to see if she could encounter a wealthy groom.

Although Chu Zhenhua’s second uncle and aunt didn’t have a good impression of the trio, since they were there, and considering that Chu Zhenhua was their daughter, they couldn’t outright forbid them from coming.

The step-sister Bai Xiaoxue followed her mother when she remarried, without changing her surname, saying that she was the only daughter left in her biological father’s line and couldn’t let down her biological father.

Chu Honglin thought that Bai Xiaoxue, being a daughter, would eventually be married off, so he didn’t care.

He didn’t actually dislike Chu Zhenhua as his daughter; he was just upset when his father forced him to promise to deposit half of his salary into the daughter’s account, feeling his father looked down on him, causing frequent conflicts with the old man.

He naturally understood why the old man did that, but couldn’t get past that psychological hurdle, especially with his wife occasionally whispering in his ear, making the affection between him and his daughter fade even more.

As soon as they appeared, Chu Zhenhua’s second uncle directly warned his own big brother, "You know what day it is today. If you are here to offer blessings, you are welcome.

But if you are here to cause trouble, don’t blame me for disregarding our brotherly bond."

Hearing the threat once again, Chu Honglin felt very displeased, feeling that his brother, just like the old man, never trusted him.

Yet at this moment, his second brother’s wife, Ge Yumei, also stepped forward and reminded, "Big Brother, please remind Bai Xiaoxue to be aware of what day it is today."

When saying this, there was not a trace of smile.

Cao Sanmei brought Bai Xiaoxue with clear intentions, but having his brother’s wife state it so bluntly, he felt embarrassed.

However, Cao Sanmei still tried to instigate, although this time Chu Honglin understood; this was his biological daughter’s engagement party, and if things got out of hand, his good brother and good daughter might never speak to him again.

Upon seeing the Han Family’s show, he further warned his wife, Cao Sanmei, "Tell Xiaoxue to behave."

Cao Sanmei acted indifferent but rolled her eyes where Chu Honglin couldn’t see, "Listen to yourself, I just brought Xiaoxue to broaden her horizons, how does that relate to behaving?

You’re being too harsh."
