Chapter 138 We Can’t Be So Stingy (1/2)



Jiang Weijia listened to Jiang Xia's words and subconsciously looked at the thing in Jiang Xia's hand. After seeing the jade pendant in Jiang Xia's hand, he was stunned and then asked Jiang Xia.

"Xia Xia, where did you get this?"

"Dad, tell me first, have you seen this thing?" Jiang Xia did not answer Jiang Weijia's words. She knew her father's temper. If she said that this thing was from Old Lady Jiang, Jiang Weijia might immediately find a way to return the thing to Old Lady Jiang.

This jade pendant looks more valuable than that antique hairpin and jade ring.

"I haven't seen it before. I just think this style looks a little rare." Jiang Weijia shook his head after hearing what Jiang Xia said. Although he said that, he didn't know why he always felt that this jade pendant looked a little inexplicably familiar, and he himself didn't know where this familiarity came from.

Jiang Xia didn't say anything after hearing Jiang Wei's words. She just put the jade pendant away, prepared to wash it and wear it with her. She would find out where this thing came from when she had a chance. She walked towards the inner room to accompany her grandparents who came to the city.

It was only after Jiang Weijia finished talking to Jiang Xia that he noticed that there were a lot more things in his yard, including a newly built cabinet and the things placed on the cabinet.

"Where did these things come from?" Jiang Weijia asked curiously.

"Mom and Changdi gave them to me. They said that our family was planning to discuss marriage with the Lu family, and these things were given to Xia Xia as dowry. But these things were not given by them on their own initiative. They were what Xia Xia wanted." Su Yuelan said.

Anyway, she felt that her daughter was right. The second son's family had taken up so much space in their home over the years that it was impossible to calculate. They should have given them this little bit, and what they gave was too little.

"What nonsense! Mom and Changdi are Xia Xia's elders. It's not normal for a younger generation to ask an elder for things. The Wei family's financial situation is not as good as ours. It's fine if we don't help them, but how can we ask for their things? Xia Xia is too ignorant!" Jiang Weijia frowned when he heard Su Yuelan's words, and it was obvious that he didn't recognize her.

"No, you can't take these things. I'll deliver them to you now, and then let Xia Xia apologize to mom and Changdi." Jiang Weijia spoke, and was about to move the things over and return them to Old Lady Jiang.

"No, there's nothing to apologize for. Xia Xia did nothing wrong!" Su Yuelan heard what Jiang Weijia said and immediately stopped Jiang Weijia.

"Mom is Xia Xia's biological grandmother. Has the old lady given Xia Xia anything since she was born? No. Other children have their grandmothers taken care of them from childhood to adulthood. Their grandmothers also make clothes for them, buy them food, and give them a lot of pocket money during the holidays." Su Yuelan said.

"But your mother has always looked down on us Xia Xia since she was a child. She was reluctant to give us Xia Xia even a penny of New Year's money during the holidays. On the contrary, she gave the two children from Changdi's family red envelopes of two or three yuan as New Year's money every time there was a holiday." The more Su Yuelan spoke, the more indignant she felt.

"It was Chinese New Year, so many relatives came. Xia Xia stood with the two children from Chang Di's family, but your mother left out Xia Xia. Xia Xia was young at the time, and she came to ask me crying and feeling very wronged. I didn't know what to say."

"And Feng Changdi, she did give Xia Xia a red envelope. What did she give? A one-cent red envelope. And every year you give her two children big red envelopes of three or four dollars. Why didn't you think that they couldn't accept them or were too embarrassed to accept them?" Su Yuelan spoke, looking at Jiang Wei's family angrily.
