The woman frowned, slightly helpless, "Apologize to your aunt."
"Calling me 'sister' won't help; you should call me 'auntie' instead."
Xiang Nan thought to herself, "Is she really that old? She's practically an auntie."
The little girl was quite small, looking only six or seven years old. She must have been playing around to break the jade, but it's also true that the woman hadn't disciplined her properly. She was too busy showing off her power and didn't know how to watch the child, which is why the child broke the jade.
He acted shamelessly, trying to avoid responsibility, and then casually grabbed the bracelet to challenge her, resulting in even greater losses...
"Hurry up, apologize to your sister and ask her not to hold it against you."
"Have some morals. Don't push everything onto your child. And don't make your child take the blame when something goes wrong. That's not how you show love for your child."
The woman blushed and said, "This bracelet costs 500,000 yuan? That's too, too outrageous."
"A bracelet here costs at least several hundred thousand."
"Can I apologize to you? I wanted to give my daughter a gift today, to pick out a jade bracelet to be made for her. I love children too. Please forgive me for my good intentions."
"I don't have that kind of magnanimity. Hundreds of thousands of dollars can't be turned over in a single sentence."
"Please, I don't have that much money. My husband only gave me 300,000 yuan to buy a gift for the child..."
The reason he was so emotional was that he had no extra money to spend and wanted to scare Xiang Nanzhi, but he didn't handle it well and it backfired.
Seeing this, the little girl also became nervous, "Sister, I'm sorry, I broke the stone..."
Xiang Nanzhi glanced at the woman, then at the little girl, and said, "I'm sorry, it's 500,000."
The woman's face turned deathly pale. "I'm so sorry, could you give me a discount? I really..."
"I really have no other way."
"When you live your whole life, don't always be afraid of whether others look down on you or not, and you won't seem superior just by being arrogant."
While saying this, I inexplicably thought of Shim Sehun.
"It won't be cheaper. It'll be 500,000. You can leave when your family brings the money."
Xiang Nanzhi is a businessman; he doesn't have time to talk about benevolence.
Zhang Man almost thought she was going to back down, but Xiang Nanzhi didn't give her any chance to bargain.
A little while later, the little girl started crying loudly. The woman had no choice but to call home and tell her husband what had happened. She was immediately scolded severely.
Later, her husband came and raised enough money to take her away. He was probably too angry, because he started cursing as soon as he got into the store, making the little girl tremble.
The woman completely deflated and obediently followed the man out of the store.
After swiping his card, Xiang Nanzhi took a sip of water and suddenly saw the man raise his hand and slap the woman across the face!
The incident escalated to such a degree that the police arrived, and many people from nearby shops came to watch. The woman was beaten so badly that the doctor didn't dare to utter a sound, and ran out with her face covered, not daring to look back even once.
Startled by the crisp sound of the slap, Xiang Nanzhi nearly dropped the cup, causing water to spill onto himself.
"There's always a reason why someone is pitiful; being a housewife these days isn't easy."
Xiang Nanzhi frowned. "A housewife should just stay down and do her job. Why are you trying to get my attention?"
She hadn't planned to make any concessions, and the 500,000 yuan had already been swiped and was in her pocket, so by any measure, she wasn't losing out.
But seeing a woman being beaten by her husband in front of so many people, I couldn't help but think how tragic it would be if I were in that situation.
I don't even dare to think about it...
After returning home, Jiang Yao locked herself in her room every day and almost never went out.
After they finished dinner, she sheepishly went downstairs to get something to eat, but Jiang Yuxin still didn't like her and said that she had lost a newly bought yellow diamond ring and couldn't find it anywhere.
The family's nanny was helping to search, and finally they found her.
Jiang Yao has been looking for a job these past few days but hasn't found a suitable one yet. Jiang Yuxin said she wanted to come to her room to look for the ring, but she refused.
"What do you mean by not letting me look? Are you feeling guilty?"
"I didn't take it, I don't have it here, and it's impossible for me to have it."
"You used to be Xiang Yunduan's slave, but now that Xiang Yunduan has fallen, you have no backing. Your father won't give you money, so you're thinking of doing these despicable things. You're just like your mother, getting more and more..."
“You can talk about me, but don’t talk about my mom.”
"Then let me in to look for it. If you don't let me in, it means you're guilty."
Jiang Yuxin was upset, and Liu Wenli, who was on her side, kindly said, "Yaoyao, your sister really likes that ring, so why don't you let her look for it?"
Jiang Yi acted as if nothing had happened and didn't say anything.
"Dad, I really didn't take it. I told you I would support myself and I wouldn't take things from home without permission."
"If you're supposed to be self-reliant, then why did you come back? You're eating at home and living at home. How does that count as being self-reliant? If you're so capable, then don't come back. If you come back, then it's no longer about being self-reliant."
Jiang Yao was so angry that she trembled. Jiang Yi frowned and said, "You are the older one, so you should give in to your younger sister. If the jade ring is missing, just let her look for it."
Jiang Yao knew who Jiang Yuxin was. If she let her go in to look for it, the ring would definitely end up in her hands. This kind of trick had been used before over the years, and she could roughly guess what the result would be.
Jiang Yao glanced at her with a forced smile and said, "Fine, then go find it."
Sure enough, Jiang Yuxin came out a short while later, clutching the ring. "Dad, I really can't believe it. Sister, if you don't have money, you should tell Dad. How could you steal my things?"
Liu Wenli asked incredulously, "Yaoyao, are you so short of money this time? You..."
Jiang Yi stood up, glanced at her, and then at the ring on Jiang Yuxin's hand. "When you were arguing with that guy surnamed Song before, you offended the Xiang family. Didn't I tell you not to come back?"
Jiang Yao had said at the time that she wouldn't come back, but plans can't keep up with changes. "Dad, I'll explain many things to you slowly."
"You don't need to explain. Look at yourself, and then look at your sister. How did I end up raising such a slut? You've completely disgraced me!"
Jiang Yi had been cursing her like this ever since she became pregnant with Xiang Ciyuan's child, but after weighing the pros and cons, he realized that it was the Xiang family after all, and if she could marry into the Xiang family, he would have to rely on this daughter in the future.
Unexpectedly, she was kicked away by Xiang Ciyuan, and Jiang Yi's disgust for her only increased. Later, she tried her best to get close to Song Ze, but the result was not good. She was openly disliked by the Song family, which affected some of the family's business.
Jiang Yi was furious whenever he thought about this, but he held back from hitting her. "You should just leave. Don't come back. Your return will bring no peace to the house. You're unclean and you'll bring bad luck into the house."
"Jiang Yi, don't say that. Yao Yao is also... is also young."
"I shouldn't have given birth to you. What a waste of my time! Get out of this house right now..."
