Chapter 427 About this bracelet

Feng Qiaozhen waited until the end of work before she saw Tian Hongxiu.

As soon as she saw her, she greeted her warmly, calling her "third sister-in-law" all the time, which was very intimate.

There was no big conflict between the two of them, and Tian Hongxiu couldn't just kick her out, so she had no choice but to let her in.

But this time, Tian Hongxiu was not as enthusiastic as usual, and she kept adding tea and pouring water.

She sat on the sofa, picked up the sweater bag, took out the sweater and started knitting.

Seeing Tian Hongxiu pouring tea for her without rules, Feng Qiaozhen was unhappy. It was okay that the two families looked down on her, but what did Tian Hongxiu mean by this?

She endured it, looking at the sweater Tian Hongxiu was knitting, wondering: "Hongxiu, why is your sweater so small?"

"It's for my three future grandchildren."

"Oh, for the three babies in Mingzhu's belly," Feng Qiaozhen snorted disdainfully: "When my Xue Xiang was born, why didn't I see you knitting a sweater for her? What, do you dislike my children?"

"How could that be possible? When I asked you if you needed to prepare clothes for Tiantian, didn't you say that the child didn't lack clothes, but money? That's why I gave her a gift of 100 yuan. Compared with other people's money, it's not a small amount.

Second sister-in-law knows that I have good craftsmanship, so she told me that she didn't want a gift, but wanted me to knit some clothes for the children by myself. I couldn't refuse. What do you mean by asking this now, eldest sister-in-law? Are you finding fault with me?"

When Feng Qiaozhen heard this, she couldn't let anyone catch her, so she immediately said, "Of course not. I just think that at our age, knitting sweaters is a chore for our eyes, and she thought that you would be tired because of her family's three children, so I said a few words to you. Don't take it to heart."

"What's hers or mine? They're all Jiang's children. I love them all the same."

Feng Qiaozhen: ...

You're the only one who knows how to talk.

Tian Hongxiu lowered her head and continued to work. She wouldn't take the initiative to talk. She wanted to take advantage of the other party and let him speak for himself.

Sure enough, Feng Qiaozhen lost her temper soon.

"Hongxiu, a few days ago I heard from a friend here in the compound that you introduced a job to a cousin of Captain Wang's family. She counts in the factory and got 50 yuan in salary in half a month?"

"Yes, but is the salary so high? I just know that this job is a basic salary plus commission. The more products the factory produces, the more she counts, and the higher the salary. As for how much she got, I don't know. What's the matter?"

"Hey, with such a good job, why don't you think of introducing it to our own family first? Didn't I tell you a long time ago that Jiang Fei had had enough of that job and wanted to change to another one..."

"Jiang Fei said that she is the eldest daughter of the Jiang family and she won't work in a factory."

"Then it's okay for Xue Xiang to go. Xue Xiang is free at home anyway, so she can go to the factory to count the people. It's better to keep the wealth within the family, you see..."

"Xiangxiang is pregnant, and you let her go to the factory? Aren't you afraid that others will scold you behind your back for being a vicious mother-in-law? I'm afraid that others will say I'm a troublemaker." Tian Hongxiu shook her head: "I won't take the blame for this."

Feng Qiaozhen frowned. What's wrong with these people today? Why don't they take her words seriously?

"I'm wondering what's wrong with you guys recently. Are you targeting me just because I went to my grandfather and made a fuss about dividing the family property? What I say, you retort. Do you still have me as your sister-in-law in your eyes? You..."

"Sister-in-law, you are my sister-in-law, not my mother. Don't always boss me around. I'm not a three-year-old child. I can't stand being lectured."

"Sister-in-law is like a mother. Can't I say a few words?"

Tian Hongxiu smiled: "I'm over fifty. Do I still need you to teach me how to do things? Besides, do I dare to give that job to your family? Even if I dare to give it to her, Zhuzhu won't want it."

"Now you have to look at Mingzhu's face to arrange a job for my child? It's so funny. I was wondering why everyone was so disrespectful to me. After all the fuss, it turns out that Jiang Duo's wife has taken control of them. Well, Jiang Duo is powerful, who are we..."

Tian Hongxiu threw the sweater in her hand aside and stood up: "You interrupted me before I finished speaking. Is that polite? The job was provided by Zhuzhu. It's up to Zhuzhu to hire someone and not hire someone. You're playing tricks on someone's child behind his back. It's strange that he can hire someone from your family."

"Provided by Mingzhu? How can she be so capable that she can introduce jobs to others?"

"Oh, Zhuzhu is very capable, don't underestimate me," she said, and shook her hands in annoyance: "Okay, okay, I'm too lazy to say anything more to you. Jiang Shounuo won't be back tonight. Jiang Qi and Jiang Sui went to Jiang Duo's house for dinner. I've eaten at the unit, so I won't cook for you alone. Sister-in-law, you should go home quickly, otherwise you won't have a car later."

"What's there to be afraid of without a car? I'll just stay at your house for one night. Am I going to..."

"Inconvenient."

"Why is it inconvenient? Jiang Shan is not at home all year round, and the room is empty. When I came here before, didn't I live in that room..."

"Sui Sui uses it. She uses that room as an office and usually uses it to correct students' homework."

Feng Qiaozhen's face darkened: "Did you agree to target our family together?"

"Sister-in-law, what do you mean by questioning me like this? Don't I have the right to let anyone stay in my own house? I kept you before, so now you must stay? Well, I actually don't like letting others live in my house. Since you are here and eating and drinking for free and doing nothing, shouldn't you feel embarrassed and pay the room fee?"

"I..." Feng Qiaozhen was furious. She didn't want to bother with this weird person and got up and left.

The more Mingzhu talked, the funnier it became. She nudged Jiang Duo lightly with her elbow: "Don't you think it's funny? Your aunt has been running around in the neighborhood for two days, but she didn't get any benefit at all. It was all in vain. I guess she'll be so angry that she can't sleep when she gets home."

Jiang Duo pursed his lips: "I don't know how long this moment of relief will last. I guess she's never going to change her philistine habits."

"That's not important. She's not honest, so the whole family will continue to isolate them. Anyway, it's not us who are poor, suffering, or isolated. Whoever is upset knows it. We can vent our anger and feel happy. You don't have to think about it so much."

Jiang Duo nodded: "Okay, I won't think about it."

After dinner, Jiang Duo went to wash the dishes. Mingzhu returned to her room and planned to take a nap.

She put her hand on the pillow and saw the little "pearl" on the green jade bracelet in front of her. She frowned. Where had she seen it before?

She thought for a while, but had no impression. She closed her eyes tiredly and fell asleep.

In the darkness, a sweet and childish voice appeared: "Cousin, there is a little spot inside this bracelet, it is a flaw, it is not perfect, when I grow up, I will give you a better one."

"Little Zhuzhu is so good, this is not a flaw, it was chosen by your cousin on purpose, it has a good meaning, it means there is a pearl hidden in the jade, your cousin will give it to you."

"Why give it to me?"

"Because..."
