No Letting My Daughter Sit at the Table? Fine, Then No One Will Eat!

As Shuiqing opened her eyes, she saw the dilapidated room, half a piece of darkened bread, and five children with malnutrition, their faces full of concern. Eldest sister-in-law sneered, “It’s ...

Chapter 322 Fan Erzhu Delivers Silk Flowers (2/2)

He thinks everything Jiajia wears looks good, but Fan Erzhu says Jiajia only looks good when she wears his things, and he constantly belittles Jiajia's belongings in his words.

What, does he think silk flowers are much more noble than cloth flowers?

There are also velvet flowers, why didn't he buy them!

Ding Jiajia shook her head, "I have some, and I think fabric flowers are very nice too."

Her parents could afford to buy her velvet flowers, but she felt they were unnecessary. The village was barely able to make ends meet, and other girls didn't even have hair ties, only using wooden hairpins or strips of cloth made from tattered clothes to tie their hair. She was already very fortunate to have velvet flowers.

However, what she considered to be good only appeared shabby in Fan Erzhu's eyes, not as noble as the silk flowers he bought.

Wearing it often is not out of love, but also out of shabbyness, as it is just worn out.

Fan Erzhu was anxious. He had spent a full sixteen coins to buy the silk flowers. If Ding Jiajia didn't accept them, wouldn't that be a waste?

His parents and grandmother were all waiting for him to come home with good news. As long as Ding Jiajia accepted the gift, she would be a daughter-in-law of the Fan family—what good girl would easily accept a gift from another man? Accepting it meant she agreed! Especially something so valuable.

"Jiajia, I risked my life to buy this in the prefectural city, and it was very, very expensive. My whole family saved and saved for this hair accessory. My mother and grandmother went hungry several times. See how much my family values ​​you? How can you let them and me down!"

Ding Heli laughed, "You risked your life to go to the prefectural city just to buy a hair accessory? That was your own decision, and has nothing to do with my Jiajia;

Moreover, a hair ornament costing more than ten coins requires your whole family to save up again and again. Forgive me for speaking frankly, but you should not be buying hair ornaments. Instead, you should be thinking about how to earn more money to buy food.

"Besides, it's your business as sons and grandsons that your mother and grandmother go hungry. You are the ones who should be valued and moved. Your sentiments have nothing to do with my Jiajia!"

Fan Erzhu never expected that the ideas and arguments that his family had carefully come up with would be completely refuted by Ding Heli, who even said things that had nothing to do with them.

He stood there stunned, feeling that his future father-in-law was really difficult to deal with!

Wouldn't other fathers-in-law be delighted to see something like this? After all, being willing to spend sixteen coins to buy a silk flower that can only be looked at and not eaten shows how much they value their daughter, but in Ding Heli's eyes, it's nothing!

He said with dissatisfaction, "Uncle Ding, stop always talking. Jiajia is all grown up. We should listen to her wishes. Maybe she wants it."

What girl doesn't love accessories? Especially silk flowers that can outshine all the other girls in the village!

Ding Heli looked at the villagers watching outside, his face darker than the bottom of a pot.

Fan Erzhu walked from one end of the village to the other, clutching a silk flower. How could he not be seen? The villagers who saw him were puzzled, but when they went back and told others, it attracted even more people to watch.

The men traveling with him knew his attitude towards Fan Qian's family, but while they understood him, they didn't necessarily understand Jiajia. Upon hearing Fan Erzhu's ambiguous words, how could they not speculate?

Fan Erzhu is determined to ruin Jiajia's reputation!

"I don't want to," Ding Jiajia replied firmly to Fan Erzhu.

Fan Erzhu smiled broadly and continued, "Don't be shy, I understand young ladies are easily embarrassed. These are the only silk flowers in my village."

"It's just silk flowers, is it really worth bringing this up repeatedly? What about my velvet flowers then?"
