Chapter 490: Fighting for One's Sight
If the boss is unreliable, no matter how capable his assistant is, the other party will not see his good points and will not give him more opportunities to show himself.
Without Mu Lingfeng's respect for him, Ma Qi would definitely not help him speak well of Wu Xiaoqing's parents.
Ma Jianbo certainly knew what Ma Qi wanted. He thought to himself that he could provide Ma Qi with some opportunities without violating principles.
"Xiaoqing, let's go." After thinking for a moment, Ma Jianbo took Wu Xiaoqing's hand and walked towards the parking space.
"What are you doing in the mall?" Ten minutes later, Wu Xiaoqing saw Ma Jianbo park his car in the underground garage of South Asia Plaza and she asked in confusion.
"The things I took over this morning were a little few, so I'll buy some more," Ma Jianbo explained.
When he went to Wu Xiaoqing's house this morning, at Wu Xiaoqing's suggestion, Ma Jianbo only bought a pack of cigarettes and a bottle of wine. After he got there, he regretted not buying a suitable gift for Wu's mother.
Being invited by Wu's mother to dinner in the evening, Ma Jianbo decided to make amends by buying some gifts for Wu's mother.
"Don't bother my mother." Wu Xiaoqing said unhappily after realizing what Ma Jianbo meant.
Wu Xiaoqing was still angry about her mother driving her away. Even if she asked them to go back for dinner in the evening, she didn't intend to forgive her so quickly.
Besides, Wu's mother changed her mind only after listening to Ma Qi's explanation of Ma Jianbo's position in the Mu Group. Wu Xiaoqing felt that her mother was a snob.
Wu Xiaoqing really doesn't like her mother's attitude towards people and things.
"Xiaoqing, no matter what, Auntie's starting point is good. She also hopes that you can live a happy life. I don't blame her for this matter."
"I also hope that you will stop blaming your aunt." Looking at Wu Xiaoqing, Ma Jianbo said earnestly.
"She treated you like that, and you still spoke well of her. You are an absolute fool."
After looking back at Ma Jianbo for a few seconds, Wu Xiaoqing was a little speechless.
"A fool is a fool. As the saying goes, fools have good fortune. It is my blessing for a fool like me to find a good girl like you as my girlfriend."
Ma Jianbo said with a smile on his face.
"When did you become so glib?"
Ma Jianbo's words made Wu Xiaoqing feel comfortable, and she pretended to be angry.
"People who keep company with the good will become good, and people who keep company with the bad will become bad. I probably learned this from Boss Mu."
Ma Jianbo explained to Wu Xiaoqing with a smile.
If Mu Lingfeng knew that Ma Jianbo actually put the blame on him when he was in love, he would definitely be furious.
Wu Xiaoqing smiled sweetly at Ma Jianbo and said nothing.
"Auntie, what do you like?" Ma Jianbo asked Wu Xiaoqing on the way from the garage to the mall.
"What do she like? She likes dressing up, square dancing, and playing mahjong."
Wu Xiaoqing thought about it and replied.
Based on the information provided by Wu Xiaoqing, Ma Jianbo bought a set of high-end skin care products, a set of high-end cosmetics, a set of newly launched brand-name clothing suitable for Wu's mother's age, and shoes and bags to match the clothes.
"Xiaoqing, do you have a mahjong machine at home?"
After buying these, Ma Jianbo asked Wu Xiaoqing.
"Are you trying to buy a mahjong card for my mom?" Wu Xiaoqing asked after realizing what was going on.
"Didn't you say that Auntie likes playing mahjong? I'll buy her a mahjong machine and she can invite her friends to play at home."
Ma Jianbo nodded in response.
"Forget it, don't do this. If you buy that thing back, it will be my dad who will be tired." Wu Xiaoqing quickly waved his hands and rejected Ma Jianbo's suggestion.
By then, the people playing mahjong will be her mother and her friends, and the one who will do the after-sales service can only be her father. Wu Xiaoqing doesn't want Ma Jianbo to offend her father just to please her mother.
After all, when it comes to her and Ma Jianbo, Wu's father is easier to win over than Wu's mother. Wu Xiaoqing knows how to settle the account of sacrificing a loyal ally to please another person who may or may not change his mind.
Ma Jianbo looked at Wu Xiaoqing and thought about it before he realized the reason why the other party refused.
Finally, at Ma Jianbo's insistence, they also bought a fully automatic massage chair.
"I'm sorry to have cost you money today." Walking beside Ma Jianbo, Wu Xiaoqing said to him as he looked at him with both hands full.
"Xiaoqing, be nice to your parents. This is what I should do. Don't have any psychological burden."
Ma Jianbo smiled and dispelled her concerns.
Wu Xiaoqing remained silent, but secretly vowed in her heart that she would also be nice to Ma Jianbo's parents in the future.
When Mother Wu saw the gift sent by Ma Jianbo, her eyes lit up for a moment, but then she suppressed her excitement and said:
"Xiao Ma, even though you can make money, you still have to learn to save money. There will be many more places to spend money in the future."
"Thank you for your teachings, Auntie. I will pay attention to it in the future." Ma Jianbo humbly accepted Wu's mother's teachings.
Say one thing and mean another!
Wu Xiaoqing secretly complained about his mother's behavior in his heart.
While they were talking, the mall deliveryman brought over the massage chair.
"Xiao Ma, I've seen this model before, it costs more than 20,000 yuan, why did you buy such an expensive massage chair?"
After the delivery man left, Mr. Wu complained while touching the massage chair in front of him lovingly.
"Uncle, you get what you pay for. It's more expensive for a reason. Xiaoqing and I have tried it before. The massage effect of this massage chair is much more comfortable than other models. Uncle, try it."
While explaining to Wu's father, Ma Jianbo urged him to sit on it and try out the effect.
After that, after trying it, Mr. Wu and Mrs. Wu both felt that this massage chair was really good.
"Xiao Ma, even though I agree that you and Xiao Qing should be together now, it doesn't mean I agree that you should get married so soon. After all, you have only been dating for a few days and you don't know each other well enough."
"It will not be good for you to get married in a hurry."
At the dinner table, Wu's mother expressed her opinion.
"Auntie, I understand your thoughts. Don't worry, I won't urge Xiaoqing to marry me now. I will give us more time to get to know each other."
Ma Jianbo did not object to Wu's mother's suggestion. He also did not want Wu Xiaoqing to agree to marry him out of a fit of anger. What he wanted was for Wu Xiaoqing to marry him wholeheartedly.
Hearing Ma Jianbo say this, Wu's mother showed a satisfied smile on her face.
At the same time, Jiang Huaijing and Yang Qianqian, who were also having dinner, were not in as happy a mood as Ma Jianbo.
"Jiang Huaijing, I didn't expect that the woman you desperately wanted to marry would be a hen that can't lay eggs."
Jiang Huaijing took Yang Qianqian back to the old house to visit his grandfather today, but unexpectedly he met his parents. After Grandpa Jiang finished his meal and left, Mother Jiang challenged Yang Qianqian.
"Mom, Qianqian is my wife no matter what, she is your daughter-in-law, can you please not speak so harshly?"
Jiang Huaijing became displeased when he heard Jiang's mother compare Yang Qianqian to a hen.
"I speak harshly, and you can't stand it. Then what those people outside say won't make you even more ashamed?"
Seeing her son refute her for Yang Qianqian, Jiang's mother raised her voice.
"You should say less. It would be bad if Dad heard it." Father Jiang persuaded Mother Jiang.
The reason why Father Jiang came forward was not because he wanted to speak well of Yang Qianqian, but simply because he did not want to bring Old Master Jiang over.
When the old man shows up, the first person to be scolded is definitely his son.
"I heard it, I didn't say anything wrong. Look at Ling Feng, he got married not long before them, and now his second child is about to be born, but they don't even have one."
"Aren't you just trying to make our Jiang family a laughing stock for outsiders to see?" Mother Jiang said angrily to Father Jiang.
Seeing that his advice was not heeded, Father Jiang stopped talking.
"If you want to secure your position as the Jiang family's young mistress, give birth to a child as soon as possible."
Mother Jiang glanced at Yang Qianqian, said something, and left angrily.
"Wife, don't care about what my mother said." Jiang Huaijing comforted Yang Qianqian.
Yang Qianqian nodded slightly, but she was thinking in her heart that this time, she must fight for it.
