After Jiang Qiao'er was forced to accept Yu Ziqing as her brother-in-law, she automatically regarded Yu Ziqing as her sister's man. Now that there are women coveting her brother-in-law, her sister can tolerate it, but she, as the younger sister, cannot watch her sister suffer.
After cursing, before Jiang San Niang could stop her, Jiang Qiao'er walked over to Yu Ziqing and the other two, abruptly separating Yu Ziqing from the girl. Then, she smiled and spoke to Old Lady Yu, "Auntie, what kind of fabric do you want? We recently received a batch of new fabric. Would you like to take a look? We can also make a few outfits for Brother Ziqing and you while we're at it?"
I hope you all die of heatstroke! She's so angry!
Although Old Lady Yu still harbored resentment towards Jiang Qiao'er for fighting with her, now that Jiang Qiao'er said she had something new, she reluctantly gave Jiang Qiao'er a friendly look and said, "Take a look."
"Oh..." Jiang Qiao'er nodded with a smile, and took out several bolts of silk from under the table. The brand-new material felt very comfortable to the touch.
"How is it, Auntie? Are you satisfied with the fabric? It's silk, perfect for making a few outfits for you and your brother," Jiang Qiao'er asked with a smile.
"It's really nice, very comfortable." Old Mrs. Yu touched it, quite satisfied, and said haughtily to Jiang Qiao'er, "If you were always this obedient, why would I make things difficult for your sister?"
"It's all in the past, Auntie. Please forgive me this time. I was just a child and didn't know any better. Please don't blame me, Auntie." Jiang Qiao'er was so angry that she almost ground her teeth to powder when she heard what Old Lady Yu said.
If she continued, Jiang Qiao'er was afraid that she would start cursing Old Woman Yu, so she quickly pulled Yu Ziqing over and asked, "Brother Ziqing, do you like this color?"
Jiang San Niang watched from behind, and hearing what her sister said, she felt something was wrong. She wanted to go over and help, but Bai Nuo grabbed her arm.
"Third Sister, what are you doing? Qiao'er can handle it by herself, you don't need to come and help. Why don't you chat with me instead?"
“But…” Jiang San Niang wanted to say something, but Bai Nuo grabbed her arm. “No buts, San Niang sister, can you really tolerate Yu Ziqing having another woman next to him? And being so close and talking so happily?” If it were her, she wouldn’t be able to stand it. Let alone childhood sweethearts, even if it was her own sister being so close, Bai Nuo felt she would kill her.
"They're just from the same hometown, there's nothing to it." Jiang San Niang suddenly stopped talking. She wasn't without jealousy; Zi Qing was standing so close to that girl. Didn't he know that boys and girls shouldn't sit together after the age of seven? Didn't he know that men and women should avoid suspicion between each other?
“Yes, yes, we’re from the same hometown!” Bai Nuo pointed to the lone girl. “Even if we’re from the same hometown, you’re not happy to see us like this?”
Jiang Qiao'er used all her persuasive skills to attract the attention of Old Lady Yu and Yu Ziqing. After the girl was pushed out by Jiang Qiao'er, she could not get close and could only stay on the side looking left and right, looking very bored.
"That's fine, don't worry about it!" Bai Nuo said to Jiang San Niang.
"kindness!"
With Jiang Qiao'er's help, Yu Ziqing and the others finally chose their fabrics. It was silk that Jiang Qiao'er had brought out, and each of the three of them chose a bolt. Yu Ziqing chose silver-white fabric, Old Lady Yu chose bright red, and the girl chose yellow.
The girl was initially hesitant to choose, but Old Lady Yu gave it to her.
"Jiyue, don't worry about taking it. There's nothing to be embarrassed about. You can take whatever you want here. Whatever you want, however much you want, you can come here and ask for it. There's no need to feel shy."
Zhang Jiyue glanced at Jiang Qiao'er cautiously. Jiang Qiao'er, feeling stared at, immediately gave a fake smile. Zhang Jiyue then smiled sheepishly, "How could I? Father said not to take other people's things without permission."
"Your family is too strict with you! Unlike others who have no manners!" Old Mrs. Yu liked Zhang Jiyue even more. "You don't need to listen to what your father says. We didn't take anything from others; they were all given to us, weren't they?"
The last question was clearly directed at Jiang Qiao'er, who replied with a forced smile, "Yes, miss, these are all gifts from me, no need to be so polite."
"Did you hear that?" Old Mrs. Yu looked at Zhang Jiyue, poked Zhang Jiyue's forehead with her finger, and said affectionately, "You are just too timid. You should come out with me more often in the future. I will take you shopping."
Zhang Jiyue pursed her lips, her face flushed, and clutched the fabric in her hands tighter. She said shyly, "Then thank you, young lady."
"Alright, let's go!" Having chosen the fabric, Old Lady Yu prepared to head home, holding Zhang Jiyue's hand. As they walked towards the door, they discussed where to have clothes made, what style of clothes to make, how many sets to make, and so on.
Seeing that his mother and Qingmei had left, Yu Ziqing walked over to Jiang Sanniang. "Sanniang, don't misunderstand, she really is just my fellow villager's sister." Yu Ziqing could clearly sense that Jiang Sanniang was unhappy.
Zhang Jiyue, who had already reached the door, suddenly turned around and called out, "Brother Ziqing, hurry up, we're leaving."
Yu Ziqing glanced back, then looked back at Jiang San Niang, his expression even more anxious. "San Niang!"
Jiang San Niang glanced at the doorway, then at Yu Ziqing, and then gave Yu Ziqing a push. "I believe you. Go back quickly, don't keep people waiting."
Yu Ziqing then smiled, "Then I'll come out to find you later, remember to wait for me."
