Moxi voiced Su Xiaonuan's thoughts: this shirt was indeed too outdated.
The style and patterns are outdated.
Xiao Nuan looked Xiang Qiuyun up and down. She was wearing a snow-white floral dress, her bangs and the ends of her hair were curled, and she wore a pair of small and delicate leather sandals with a white tassel handmade cloth hanging diagonally.
If Su Xiaonuan hadn't been able to see through people's hearts, she would have actually gone up and hugged this fake flower sister and praised her.
Xiang Qiuyun is indeed very beautiful and has an air of nobility; she is not in the same league as Lan Yin at all.
"Where is it rustic?" Xiang Qiuyun held up the shirt by the shoulders with both hands, gesturing in front of Xiao Nuan. "Look, it makes Xiao Nuan's skin look fair and rosy. Besides, Xiao Nuan has to do farm work and take care of the children now, so this kind of fabric is durable and wear-resistant. I spent a long time choosing this before I bought it."
Su Xiaonuan was taken aback. This woman was comparing her to herself. When she saw Jiang Yi looking over, the smug look in her eyes intensified.
"Qiuyun, this dress really doesn't suit me. But since you bought it, I can't refuse your kindness." Su Xiaonuan casually pulled the dress over and handed it to Zhang Yulan beside her. "Mom, here, you can wear this dress."
"Uh, how will you give it to your mother-in-law?"
“I also think this dress would suit Aunt Zhang.” Jiang Yi looked at Su Xiaonuan gently. “Xiaonuan, what kind of clothes do you like? When you go back to the provincial capital, I’ll take you to buy them.”
With a loud "smack," Mo Xi slapped Jiang Yi across the face. "Keep dreaming. It's none of your business to buy my sister-in-law's clothes. If anyone should buy them, it'll be my brother. Stop trying to curry favor with her."
"Are you crazy?" Jiang Yi covered his slapped face. "Did I say you have violent tendencies?"
"Who told you to have ill intentions towards my sister-in-law?" Moxi threatened him, raising her fist. "If you dare to make a move on my sister-in-law again, I'll smash your head in. Also, stop staring at my sister-in-law with those shifty eyes of yours."
After saying that, Moxi made a gouging motion with his eyes.
Xiang Qiuyun quickly smiled and smoothed things over, "You two stop arguing. Today is Xiaonuan's birthday, let's eat the birthday cake quickly."
Yipinxuan's birthday cakes are famously delicious. Xiang Qiuyun knows her stuff. As soon as she entered, she saw the Yipinxuan logo. It's not a birthday cake that ordinary people can afford. Even though she has a fixed salary in the provincial capital, she wouldn't dare to buy such an expensive cake to eat easily.
DouDou and GuoGuo clapped. "Okay, let's eat birthday cake."
Jiang Yi's gaze never left Su Xiaonuan. "Xiaonuan, go make a wish. I hope your wish comes true."
"If you want to, then don't. Let's start eating." Su Xiaonuan wanted to get rid of these people as soon as possible, so she went to the table, took the cake out of the box, cut it into several pieces, and distributed them to everyone.
After taking a bite, Chen Hao took his own birthday cake and left. Such a delicious treat should naturally be taken home to share with his family.
Xiang Qiuyun didn't stand on ceremony at all and started eating as soon as she picked up the food.
Jiang Yi held up the cake. "Happy birthday, Xiao Nuan!"
DouDou and GuoGuo also raised their cakes, just like Jiang Yi. "Happy birthday, Mom!"
Moxi and Zhang Yulan also wished Xiaonuan a happy birthday.
Xiang Qiuyun, who was enjoying a delicious meal, swallowed the cake in her mouth with force. "Xiao Nuan, happy birthday!"
After finishing the cake, Xiao Nuan gave them the hint to leave. "You've eaten the cake, and your birthday is over. You two should go home now."
“Okay.” Xiang Qiuyun gave Jiang Yi a meaningful look. “Then I’ll hitch a ride back with you.”
"Go back the way you came. Don't hitch a ride with me," Jiang Yi said coldly.
"Jiang Yi, how could you do this?" Xiang Qiuyun said, her tone a mix of coquettishness and sweetness. "I'm Xiao Nuan's best friend, how dare you not give me a ride home?"
"Jiang Yi, let Qiu Yun ride back in your car." Su Xiaonuan couldn't wait for them to leave.
"I'll give you a ride out of respect for Xiao Nuan," Jiang Yi said, gesturing with his chin towards Xiang Qiuyun. "Don't talk in the car, and don't sit in the front."
"Okay." Xiang Qiuyun readily agreed and stepped forward to give Xiao Nuan a hug. "Xiao Nuan, remember to come see me when you get back to the provincial capital. I want to take you to eat something delicious. The provincial capital has really changed a lot since you last went back."
Su Xiaonuan stood there stiffly, her expression somewhat strange. She really didn't have any good feelings towards Xiang Qiuyun.
Watching Xiang Qiuyun follow Jiang Yi away gracefully, Su Xiaonuan remained frozen in place.
"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law," Moxi nudged her. "What are you thinking about?"
"Mersh, go and take the things out of the bag."
“Mom is already getting it.” Mo Xi pursed her lips. “Is Xiang Qiuyun really your sister? Last time you asked me to go see her, thank goodness I didn’t go. I don’t think she really came to celebrate your birthday.”
“Our Moxi is so smart!” Xiao Nuan patted her on the shoulder. “She came here following Jiang Yi. I really underestimated her before. I was wondering how everything that happened to me here back then could spread so quickly. It must have been her who spread it. But she didn’t expect that Lan Yin would beat her to it. Now, she thinks she has another chance.”
"Oh, I see." Moxi finally realized. "No wonder she would buy you such an old-fashioned dress. She's so cunning."
“Moxi, after the performance tomorrow, I’ll take DouDou and GuoGuo straight to the provincial capital. My parents are having such a hard time right now because of me. I have to go back and help them. Maybe you’re right, I’ll open a restaurant in the provincial capital so they don’t have to live such a hard life.”
Su Xiaonuan now has the savings book that Xiao Moran brought back, which has a thousand yuan in it, and she also has a few hundred yuan in her own hands. That's enough capital to open a restaurant.
