After all, her daughter's gold lock weighed ten grams, and with her own gold necklace, it weighed a total of nineteen grams.
Zhao Guifang's face was grim and her expression was not good.
Yi Guofang felt bad after hearing this. She pulled Zhao Guifang aside and said, "Mom, she's a divorced woman and she already has a gold necklace. I don't have anything. My brother is really something. He's got a wife and he's forgotten about his mother and sister."
"So much money, it's all going to be used to make jewelry for her. My daughter and I are completely broke, we have nothing at all."
Yi Guofang felt even more uncomfortable thinking about it. Was she, an unmarried daughter, not as good as a divorced woman who had given birth?
If Su Luo can have a gold necklace, how can she not?
And if even that little money-loser has one, how can she not have one?
Hearing her daughter's complaints, Zhao Guifang also felt resentful. She sighed and said, "Your brother didn't give us any extra money either. Where am I supposed to get the money to make jewelry for you?"
Liu Xiaohua already has gold necklaces and gold earrings, doesn't she want them too?
Of course they want it, but gold is expensive and they don't have the money to buy it.
Yi Guohai brought back a thousand yuan, but he specifically asked that it be used to make jewelry for Xia Yuwei.
Yi Guofang pulled Zhao Guifang aside and pointed to the other side of the gold shop counter, saying, "Mom, there's gold-plated silver over there. We can make her a gold-plated silver one, and use the rest to make necklaces and earrings for us, mother and daughter."
“She married my brother, so she’s a member of the Yi family. She should be filial to you along with my brother. It’s unreasonable for her to wear gold while her mother-in-law doesn’t!”
"Besides, I'm also getting married soon. Without a decent piece of jewelry, I won't find a good family to marry into, and people will look down on me."
Yi Guofang tugged at Zhao Guifang, looking at her with a pitiful expression.
Zhao Guifang felt a pang of pity.
Her daughter's words struck a chord with her. After thinking for a moment, Zhao Guifang pulled Yi Guofang back to the jewelry store and asked with a smile, "Boss, how much does it cost for gold-plated silver?"
Old Jin smiled politely and said, "This isn't expensive. Gold will be charged at the price of gold, and silver at the price of silver, and then we'll collect the labor fee."
"Then let's make a few gold-plated silver items, and also choose two smaller gold necklaces and earrings."
Zhao Guifang made a decision: she had to wear the gold necklace first, even if her son found out.
Zhao Guifang really didn't understand why her son was so afraid of Xia Yuwei. Xia Yuwei was already pregnant. Could a cooked duck fly away?
"Mom, I want these bow earrings."
Yi Guofang happily went to choose earrings.
Zhao Guifang glanced at her, smiled indulgently, and nodded: "Okay."
...
After leaving the jewelry store, Su Dahai and his family began buying what they needed.
Su Chengguo couldn't help but ask, "Chunmei, how did you know that old hag's sore spot? I saw her face change after you said that, and she couldn't say anything more."
He was genuinely angry just now, but hitting a woman isn't something a real man would do.
Fortunately, Zhou Chunmei hit Zhao Guifang's sore spot.
Zhou Chunmei suppressed a laugh and said, "I guessed it. That old hag isn't a good person. I also guessed that her bad days are yet to come. Let's wait and see."
"When you encounter someone like this, just ignore her and see how long she can be so smug. Once we're done with this, she'll drive herself crazy."
Zhou Chunmei looked at everyone and said earnestly.
If I had been provoked by Zhao Guifang and her daughter and argued or fought with them, I would have been at a disadvantage. They wanted to compare Su Luo with that newcomer, so I decided to go against their wishes.
Putting everything else aside, the fact that they actually make gold jewelry is enough to make Zhao Guifang and her daughter envious.
"Chunmei, you're right."
Su Chengguo looked at Zhou Chunmei with a smile, her eyes shining.
Zhou Chunmei blushed instantly under his intense gaze. She secretly pinched Su Chengguo, telling him to stop staring at her.
Su Chengguo smiled foolishly.
Su Chenggong could hardly bear to look. He glanced at Li Xue and saw envy in her smiling eyes. He quietly took Li Xue's hand.
Although he wasn't as outspoken as his younger brother, he had his own way of expressing himself.
When Li Xue's hand was taken, she immediately looked at Su Chenggong with a bit of panic. Seeing the smile in his eyes, Li Xue's face also flushed.
After buying their things, the family found a tractor and rode home.
As soon as she got home, Su Chengguo shouted as usual, "Mom, A Luo, we're back!"
Liu Xiaohua came out to greet them when she heard the shouts.
"You bought so much stuff."
Liu Xiaohua saw that there was quite a lot of food, including fresh pork and various snacks, and she subconsciously muttered something.
"Mom, it's been so long since I've had twice-cooked pork. Let's make it today. I've been eating fish all the time, and I smell like fish all over. Let's stew these pig's trotters for A-Luo, and with these medicinal herbs, it'll be good for her health."
Su Chengguo said with a smile that she not only bought a piece of pork belly, but also a pig's trotter.
I also bought some medicinal herbs from a traditional Chinese medicine shop. These are all for women to replenish their vital energy and blood after childbirth.
"Okay, you're a dad now, and you're still so greedy."
Liu Xiaohua grumbled, but her feelings were mostly affectionate.
She seemed stern, but Su Chengguo wasn't afraid at all and even gave her a playful hug.
"Thank you, Mom. You're the best."
Su Chengguo hugged him briefly and then let go, immediately starting to move things.
Li Xue and Zhou Chunmei took out the clothes they bought for Su Luo from another basket.
"Mom, do you think it's okay? Let A-Luo try it. If she doesn't like it, we can change it."
After handing it over to Liu Xiaohua, Li Xue said with a smile.
She and Zhou Chunmei also bought one.
Liu Xiaohua nodded: "Okay, you have good taste. This blue color suits A Luo very well."
"Mom, you should try this one too. This one is for you."
Zhou Chunmei took out an item that belonged to Liu Xiaohua. Although Liu Xiaohua repeatedly emphasized that she didn't want it, how could they not buy it for her?
Each of the children bought a pair of shorts and a vest.
Today she spent a lot of money, but Liu Xiaohua only felt the pain for a second before it was gone.
Seeing my family's smiling faces, I no longer feel bad about spending money.
Liu Xiaohua took Su Luo's clothes, Su Tiantian's plush toy, and the wind chime and went back inside.
"Aro, come and try on the clothes."
Liu Xiaohua asked Su Luo to try on the clothes.
She went to hug Su Tiantian.
"Sweetie, do you like puppies?"
Liu Xiaohua used a plush toy to amuse Su Tiantian.
Su Tiantian took a look, and to be honest, she didn't really like it.
But seeing how much effort her grandmother put in, she was very accommodating, showing a sweet smile and making a cute baby voice.
"Ah~"
"So cute, Grandma's little darling."
Liu Xiaohua was completely charmed. She watched him countless times a day and still couldn't get enough. This child knew so well how to coax people. His smile was so sweet that even though he hadn't eaten any candy, she still felt sweet inside.
Su Luo changed her clothes. The clothes fit her perfectly, loose and just the right amount. The pants were also very casual and flattering to her waist.
"It looks great! I knew your sister-in-laws had good taste," Liu Xiaohua praised with a smile after seeing it.
