Chapter 1278 Take Initiative to Visit the Tian family
This was such a good opportunity for revenge and Qiu Chenxi had no reason to reject Tian Dong.
Everyone had known each other for such a long time. Would Zhai Hua not know that Qiu Chenxi was trying to show off to her?
Zhai Hua slapped the table and laughed. If she were to appear meek before Qiu Chenxi at this point, she would immediately remove her entire soldier attire. “Familiar. How familiar? Are you closer to auntie than me?” As she said that, Zhai Hua pulled out the jade pendant that she had been wearing in her tummy belt. “This was what auntie insisted on giving me previously. She said that there are many physiological benefits to wearing jade and she won’t be pleased if I don’t wear it. Actually, auntie gave me a bracelet initially. However, you know what I do for a living. I can’t even wear a necklace, let alone a bracelet. I will break it within a day if I wear one. I don’t have a choice. As such, auntie gave me a pendant instead. I put it in my clothes usually and no one can tell that I am wearing it. It doesn’t give me any trouble.”
Zhai Hua was telling the truth and was not boasting in her words.
The Tian family did not lack money and had many valuable belongings. Furthermore, Auntie Tian had the same habit as Elder Lin. They liked to give away jade and similar items as gifts.
When she first saw that translucent, watery, and virid bracelet, Zhai Hua knew that the item was not cheap despite being a layman in this area. She might not be able to afford one in her entire life with her current salary.
She was clumsy and did not like to wear accessories, especially such expensive and fragile items. Not to mention wearing it, Zhai Hua was so taken back that she took three steps back when Auntie Tian took it out. She was so afraid that she would lose control and break the bracelet before wearing it.
At that time, Auntie Tian was so amused at Zhai Hua’s awkward reaction.
The Tian family was also aware that Zhai Hua was not the typical kind of lady. If she were to be together with Dongzi, it would certainly not be because of the Tian family’s background and status.
When one gave a present, they had to give something to the liking of the receiving party. At the thought of Zhai Hua’s job, Auntie Tian took back the bracelet and took out a pendant for Zhai Hua. She spent a long time persuading Zhai Hua to accept it and the latter eventually did.
Although the Tian family was not short of money, they would not casually give away valuable and expensive gifts.
The gift and acceptance on this occasion represented the attitudes of both the Zhai family and the Tian family.
Seeing that Qiu Chenxi insisted on puffing up herself at her own cost in front of her, Zhai Hua ‘kindly fulfilled’ Qiu Chenxi’s wish. “Oh, right. Since you know auntie so well, did auntie give you anything as a memoir?”
Qiu Chenxi had a taste for expensive things and she had seen a lot of good stuff before. At just a rough glance, she already knew that that small piece of jade cost over a hundred thousand yuan.
Qiu Chenxi had never possessed an item of such great value in her entire life, let alone other ordinary folks. She did not even have the experience of spending more than a hundred thousand yuan before.
Auntie Tian gave such a good thing to Zhai Hua. In other words, Auntie Tian was quite happy and satisfied with Zhai Hua?
Qiu Chenxi took a deep breath and replied to Zhai Hua smilingly. “I have not received anything from Auntie Tian, but I have given her something. Although it can’t be compared to what you received, I don’t mind at all. There is still a lot of time in the future. In comparison, I prefer to give Auntie Tian things and watch her accept my gestures of thoughts. I feel happier in this way than anything else.”
Zhai Hua only received a pendant. What was there to be proud of? There was much better and more valuable stuff in the Tian family.
She would not lose her temper just because of that meager hundred thousand yuan item on Zhai Hua and give up on a ‘bank’ like the Tian family.
After hugging her three children, Qiao Nan looked at Zhai Hua. “Sister Zhai Hua, we were unaware that Uncle Tian and Auntie Tian were unwell previously. Let’s forget it. Now that we are aware, why would you watch a movie or have a meal with Tian Dong? Isn’t it better that you go and visit uncle and auntie at the Tian family’s residence directly? I believe that uncle and auntie will definitely feel happy when they see you. When their mood becomes better, they will recover faster. With you and Tian Dong accompanying them for a meal tonight, they may even eat half a bowl more of rice.”
Qiu Chenxi had come knocking on the door to boast to them. If they were to give in, wouldn’t Qiu Chenxi laugh at them forever in the future? The Zhai family did not have anything except for a backbone. They would not let Qiu Chenxi, this ‘latecomer’, behave so brazenly.
To Qiao Nan, everything was open to discussion once the misunderstanding was cleared.
Furthermore, Qiao Nan vaguely felt that both Uncle Tian’s and her families might have been plotted against. The Zhai family was angry about the Tian family’s long silence. On the other hand, the Tian family might also have negative opinions on the recent performance of the Zhai family.
Although they had not clarified the situation, to the Qiao family, the best way to resolve this was to take the initiative to understand the cause and consequences of the matter and maintain the relationship between the Zhai family and the Tian family.
“Sister Zhai Hua, what do you think?” Sister Zhai Hua should understand what she meant. They would not let people like Qiu Chenxi succeed in such underhand means. They would have suffered a cowardly loss then. In short, they could not let Qiu Chenxi pick up any bargain.
Zhai Hua yawned and stretched herself, looking like she did not have a care. However, those who understood her knew that she was bewitching the enemy in preparation for an attack. “Sure. I think Nan Nan’s suggestion is quite good. Mom, I am going to the Tian family’s residence with Dongzi today. I won’t be back for dinner. Right, auntie, if I did not remember wrongly, you prepared pigeon soup today. Could you help me prepare a flask so that I can bring it to the Tian family?”
Zhai Hua was not certain about the types of soup suitable for various illnesses. However, there should not be much of a problem to bring pigeon soup to the Tian family’s residence.
“Aye. sure.” The auntie had not expected such a twist of events. Obviously, it was all one-sided and wishful thinking on Qiu Chenxi’s part. Tian Dong was not agreeable and the one he liked was still their family’s Hua Hua.
After knowing that Tian Dong was not a heartless lad, both the auntie and Miao Jing looked at Tian Dong in a different light. The more the mother-in-law looked at her son-in-law, the more pleased she felt.
Zhai Hua had put forth a request. Without a word, the auntie ran into the kitchen, took out a warmer flask, and poured the pigeon soup in it. The flask was ‘brimming with good intent’. After taking it out, she passed it to Zhai Hua personally. “Hua Hua, remember to hold onto this yourself.” You would be able to show your sincerity and gain favor then.
Zhai Hua nodded in an abiding manner. “Auntie, don’t worry. I will hold onto it.” She would not pass it to Dongzi. Neither would she pass it to Qiu Chenxi.
After all, everyone knew each other since they were young. If Qiu Chenxi was willing to leave just like that today, Zhai Hua dared to chop her head off for Qiu Chenxi to use as a stool.
“Fine, Dongzi. Remember to send Hua Hua back.” Of course, Miao Jing would not stop them. If her daughter-in-law had not said, she would also have suggested Hua Hua take the initiative to visit the Tian couple at the latter’s residence.
