Chapter 256 New Year Gifts 2
Chapter 257 New Year's Gift 2
Wang Huizheng looked at Fang Qing's family standing in the room, his eyes full of jealousy and resentment.
Why does God favor their family so much? They had always been successful in business before, and now their family has become rich and powerful. Not only do they live a better life than their own family, but even their status is different from their own.
"Hey, what wind is blowing you all back here? You are all from wealthy families, why are you still coming to a small place like ours?"
As soon as Wang Huizheng finished speaking, his eldest brother Fang Decheng's face immediately darkened. He pulled his wife's arm and signaled her to stop talking.
"Stop talking and go cook."
Then he smiled and asked them to sit down, and enthusiastically asked about their recent situation.
Although Fang Decai had an average relationship with his eldest sister-in-law, his eldest brother had always loved him very much, so he immediately smiled.
"Brother, how is your family doing recently? This year... we are going to celebrate the New Year over there, so we came back before the New Year to buy New Year's goods for our family and also came to see you."
Different from Wang Huizheng's rejection of his younger brother's family, the eldest brother of the Fang family was very happy that his second brother could come back.
"When did you come back? Why didn't you tell your family so I could pick you up? How long do you plan to stay at home this time? It's rare for you to come back, why don't you stay a few more days?"
Fang Decai smiled and nodded, "Okay, as long as Big Brother doesn't mind, we'll stay at home for a few days before leaving."
But when Wang Huizheng, who was busy in the kitchen, heard this, he immediately lifted the curtain and stuck his head out, "There's only so much room in the house, how can so many of you stay?"
Fang Decheng didn't expect his wife to be so disrespectful. He immediately felt a little embarrassed and scolded her fiercely, "Why can't we accommodate you? Those two rooms are empty. We can all live together if we squeeze in! Why are you so troublesome! Go and cook your meal!"
Ever since Wang Huizheng lost her job, the family relied on Fang Decheng alone to support them. She finally lost her previous arrogance and domineering attitude. Even though she was very unhappy about Fang Decheng's family's sudden return, she did not dare to say much for the sake of her husband's face, and could only go back to the kitchen with a gloomy face and continue cooking.
"You've already left, why are you coming back? It's so annoying!"
Fang Decheng was afraid that his wife's words would make his brother's family uncomfortable, so he quickly laughed it off, sat down with his brother, and started talking.
Old Mrs. Fang called the nanny and moved all the gifts brought by Fang Qing's family outside the house into her own room.
Fang Decheng saw the nanny's actions and then noticed the gifts outside.
"Decai, you guys are such a fool. Just come back. Why are you buying anything? Why are you being so formal with your family?"
Seeing that the nanny had some difficulty moving the gifts by herself, he stood up unconsciously and helped move all the gifts into the house.
Hearing the noise in the living room, Wang Huizheng lifted the curtain and looked outside out of concern, and then he noticed the large and small gifts in the hands of the two people.
"Mom, where did this come from?"
Old Mrs. Fang knew that her eldest daughter-in-law was about to take advantage of her again, and she was afraid that he would turn his attention to her gift, so she quickly raised her hand to protect the jade bracelet on her wrist.
"Where did you say it came from? Of course your second brother and his friends bought it for me! Okay, okay, why are you asking so many questions? Go and cook..."
Wang Huizheng rolled her eyes. It was obvious that her mother-in-law was just trying to please her.
There are so many things on the ground, how could they all be for the old lady alone? The boxes clearly say seafood and fresh fruits, which are obviously sent to her own family! It seems that this mother-in-law wants to eat alone!
"Look at you, Mom. My second brother and his family are back, but you didn't even tell me. I could go out and buy some more meat and vegetables so I can prepare two meals for lunch! Hey! What's that on the ground?"
As Wang Huizheng spoke, he quietly moved towards several large gift boxes in the living room.
While Mrs. Fang and the nanny were not paying attention, he grabbed the largest box closest to him and opened the packages outside in no time.
She saw big, round Fuji apples neatly stacked in the box. Before she got close to the box, the fragrance of the apples had already filled her nose.
"Wow, these apples are great. Such big Fuji apples are not available in our county. You guys really know how to shop. I'm so embarrassed that you still remember that I love Fuji apples and bought such a big box of them..."
Old Mrs. Fang had never expected that her eldest daughter-in-law would make the apple hers with just a few words.
"What apples are I buying for you? These are specially bought for me by Decai and Chunxia! You still like to eat apples, don't you hate eating apples the most?"
But Wang Huizheng, who was exposed, did not feel embarrassed at all. He just felt happy that he had snatched the things.
"Oh, Mom, I was just joking with you, but you took it seriously. These two Decai came back to buy things for you, so I also benefited from it, didn't I?"
Old Mrs. Fang knew that her eldest daughter-in-law was thick-skinned and could not be persuaded, so she was too lazy to compete with her for the box of apples. She just told the nanny to quickly put the boxes of the best strawberries and grapes in her room first.
With Wang Huizheng's help, the gift boxes in the living room were quickly divided up. Although Wang Huizheng only grabbed a few things, once she entered this house, there was nothing she couldn't get.
He didn't argue with Old Mrs. Fang and happily went out with his basket to buy vegetables.
When Mrs. Fang saw her eldest daughter-in-law leave, she quickly sent her eldest son away as well, and then told Fang Decai what she was thinking.
"Decai, Mom is very happy that you're back this time. I knew that you're a filial and grateful child. All my efforts to train you over the years have not been in vain.
But mom is old now, and your brothers and sisters have settled down, so I don’t need to worry about them. But mom has a wish that is unfulfilled, and I can’t find anyone to help. So I want to ask you if you can help me think of a solution. "
Although the other party’s cooking was not very good over the years, this was the first time that Mrs. Fang made such a serious request to him.
Song Decai felt that he owed Old Lady Fang because he wanted to trace his ancestral roots. Now that the old lady needed help, he couldn't refuse her no matter what.
"Mom, that's too polite. If you need us to do anything, just tell us. As long as we can, we have done our best to help you fulfill your wish."
Old Mrs. Fang smiled. She knew that her second son would not refuse.
"Then I won't be polite. Next year, your brother is going to get married. I am very satisfied with the girl, but the child still doesn't have a formal job. Can you help me find a job? Our requirements are not too high. We just want to arrange a light job in the city's government agencies."
