Xu Pingrong believed that her daughter was definitely trying to comfort her.
The three of them took the elevator upstairs.
In the elevator, Xu Pingrong kept straightening her clothes and checking her shoes, afraid that she might have overlooked something and embarrassed her daughter.
When the elevator doors opened, Lingya was already standing at the door to greet them.
In the past, when Xu Wan met Ling Ya, although she didn't like wearing heavy makeup, she would always wear some expensive jewelry on her hands and neck.
Today she wore only light makeup and a casual dress. Apart from the wedding ring on her left ring finger, she only wore a pair of small pearl earrings, making her look very approachable.
"My dear in-laws! I've been waiting for you!" Lingya opened the door behind her. "It's cold outside, come in, come in!"
Jiang Tingzhou went inside first, followed by Xu Wan, who escorted Xu Pingrong in.
When he reached the door frame, Xu Pingrong looked at the shiny marble floor inside, hesitated for a moment, and then stepped inside.
Lingya gestured for everyone to sit down and asked the nanny, Wang Yu, to make tea and bring it over.
Xu Pingrong clutched the bag in his hand tightly, hesitant to deliver it.
Lingya noticed and smiled, "Father-in-law, is this a gift you're carrying for me?"
"Ah, yes," Xu Pingrong said awkwardly. "You know my situation; I can't afford anything expensive, but I'm good at knitting scarves. Yesterday, I had my daughter take me to buy some yarn, and I knitted a scarf. I don't know if you'll like it..."
"What do you mean 'you'? We're all family."
As Lingya spoke, she reached out and took the bag, then took out the scarf inside.
When Xu Wan picked up the bag just now, she felt that it was heavy.
When Lingya took the scarf out of the bag, she was also very surprised.
It's more like a shawl than a scarf.
It is triangular in shape.
The majority of the area is white, but the edges are blue and yellow, with a few small patterns and tassels along the sides.
Neither the color nor the style is bad-looking, and they are easy to match.
Xu Pingrong explained, "Because of the tight schedule, I could only use the simplest weaving method. If I had three to five more days, I could have woven it even better."
"Oh my god, this looks so good!" Lingya immediately wrapped the shawl around her shoulders and looked at herself in the living room mirror from left to right. "Look, it goes perfectly with my dress! From now on, I'll wear it with my dresses when I go out. It looks great!"
Xu Pingrong was slightly taken aback.
When she was knitting this scarf, she never thought for a second that she would receive praise from her in-laws; she just secretly prayed that they wouldn't dislike it.
Unexpectedly, the other person not only didn't find it offensive, but even said they wanted to wear it out!
"This...this...I knitted it myself, please don't mind." Xu Pingrong really didn't know what to say.
Ling Ya sat down next to Xu Pingrong and said with a smile, "I told you not to be so polite with me. I'm older than you. You can call me in-law, or the other person can call me sister. I feel embarrassed to talk to you with all those formal terms."
She lifted a corner of the shawl and said, "Times have changed. Anything handmade is incredibly expensive. This scarf you gave me is much better than the clothes I buy in the mall!"
"Really? Really?"
Xu Pingrong finally felt a little relieved.
Xu Wan glanced gratefully at Ling Ya and nodded vigorously: "Yes, that's how it is now."
While the group was chatting, the nanny, Wang Yu, brought the dishes out of the kitchen one after another and finally set out the bowls and chopsticks.
After the dishes were served, Ling Ya first picked up a piece of tender fish and put it in Xu Pingrong's bowl. "In-law, you've worked hard these past few years, but I'm really grateful to you. If you hadn't mustered up your courage back then, we might not have had the chance to meet such a wonderful daughter-in-law as Xu Wan."
Xu Pingrong looked up at Ling Ya, "Thank you?"
She never expected that Lingya would be grateful for what she had done back then.
Lingya said, "You were never the one who made a mistake. If you had other choices, you would never choose the worst one. In my eyes, you are the hero who protected my daughter-in-law. Good people are rewarded. Heaven will bless you in the future. If anyone tries to hurt you, they will not have a good outcome."
Xu Wan felt a strange sensation as she listened to Ling Ya speak.
She always felt...
Lingya seemed to have a hidden meaning in her words.
