"Yes, you'd better take it easy. Don't make promises lightly. If you keep them, it might end badly." Pan Yan agreed. Chunlian was their friend, so they didn't mean to be mean to her. Instead, they did it for her own good. If Lingdang had refused at the beginning, Chunlian's return would only be a temporary setback. It would be good if they could completely stop the mother and son from thinking about her.
If Lingdang was soft-hearted and helped once or twice, then there would be three or four more times. When would that end? Lingdang was in a good situation and didn't mind helping once or twice, but what if she helped more times? When Lingdang felt alienated and didn't want to help, her mother-in-law and husband, who were used to getting benefits, would never let her go easily. Life would be even harder, and they might not even be friends anymore.
"I know," Lingling said, but her expression showed that she felt sorry for her. When she first gained a foothold in Chaoyang, she called her little sisters to come.
But at that time, her younger sisters were all looking for someone else, and Fusheng was a private enterprise, so none of them came and stayed at home to start their own families. She didn't force them anymore. When Fusheng became bigger and bigger, it was not as easy to get in as it was at the beginning. They had to be assessed on their abilities and academic qualifications. Lingdang could use her power to bring people into Chaoyang, but it would be in vain if they couldn't do the work. So fewer and fewer people in the village asked Lingdang for help. As these things happened less and less, Lingdang forgot how troubled she was at that time.
"Don't be soft-hearted. If you are soft-hearted for a moment, she may suffer more in the future." Pan Yan looked at Lingdang's expression and knew what she was thinking without even thinking about it. He broke it down and analyzed it for her for a long time. When he saw Lingdang nod, he stopped.
"Don't worry, I know what's going on."
"Okay, you're such a big boss now, we can trust you to do things." Meng Meng patted Lingling's shoulder in a manly manner, with an expression that said, "My daughter has grown up, and I'm proud of her."
"Lingdang, come quickly, someone is coming home." While the three were talking, Lingdang's mother's voice came from downstairs.
"Who would come at this time? I'll go down and take a look." Lingling heard her mother's voice downstairs and responded before she spoke to Mengmeng and Panyan.
"Let's do it together. Put the jewelry in the cloakroom and lock the door." Meng Meng said as she put the whole box of jewelry into the cloakroom. When she turned around and came out, she locked the door and gave the key to Lingling.
"No need, why are you still shrinking at home?" Lingling said nonchalantly.
"Lock it up, your jewelry is so expensive, I can't afford the compensation even if I sell it," Meng Meng said jokingly.
"Yes, lock it and don't worry. There are so many people coming and going these days. What if something goes wrong?" Pan Yan also agreed.
"Okay then," Lingling said, putting the key in her pocket and going downstairs with Mengmeng and Panyan.
Lingdang's family is from a village near Shanghai. Not many people can come to the wedding, and even if they can, most of them come on the wedding day. So the only people at home today are her three little sisters, her mother and a few people hired by Dongzi to help decorate the house.
Lingdang was wondering who would come over at this time. She walked down the stairs and saw Nanqiao and Sheng Yanchuan sitting on the sofa in the living room chatting with Lingdang's mother, and Jian Hua and Jian Le sitting in the small living room not far away.
"Sister Qiao, Master Er, you two are here!" Lingling looked at the newcomers and was extremely surprised. She ran down from upstairs like a butterfly and sat down next to Nanqiao.
"Sister Qiao, why did you come here in person on such a cold day? If you have anything, just give me a call and I'll come over."
"How can I let you, a bride, run around?" Nanqiao smiled and patted the bell while holding her hand.
"Why can't I do that? Dongzi has prepared almost everything. I don't have anything to do." Lingling said as she looked at the decorations in the room. These were all arranged by Dongzi. It seemed that she had done nothing except trying on the wedding dress.
"Dongzi did a good job," Nanqiao nodded and praised. The layout of this room was indeed well thought out. A few days ago, Sheng Yanchuan said that Dongzi spent the whole day thinking about whether there was anything missing. It was really difficult for the man to come to the house before the wedding, otherwise he would have to come and clean it up himself.
"We just came to see you and bring you your wedding gift," Nanqiao said as he took the file bag from Sheng Yanchuan.
"Thank you, Sister Qiao." Lingling took it, her eyes full of expectation, but she still asked politely, "Sister Qiao, can I see it now?"
"Okay, I'll give it to you and it's yours."
As soon as she finished speaking, Lingling opened the file bag and took out a small box from it. She opened it and saw a pair of emerald green and transparent jade pendants in the file bag.
"Sister Qiao, this is too expensive," Lingling was shocked. Over the years, she had followed Sister Qiao and liked to buy gold jewelry or jade and other things. She was quite familiar with these things. This pair of pendants was definitely top-grade and could be a family heirloom. She didn't expect Sister Qiao to give them to her like this. As she spoke, her eyes turned red and she was about to cry with emotion.
"Don't cry, this is a happy thing, the bride is not allowed to cry." Nanqiao saw Lingdang's tears and hurriedly stopped her. Lingdang's mother was beside her and helped her wipe her tears. She held back her own tears and kept murmuring, "It's a happy thing, it's a happy thing."
The little sister who followed behind was shocked that the couple in front of them were the bosses of the Lingdang couple and they were so young and beautiful. Then she saw the pendant in the box....
Pan Yan tugged at Meng Meng's clothes and whispered, "Let's sit over there." It was Ling Ling's private matter, so they just stood aside to watch the fun.
"Okay, did you see the pendant? It's green and so big. If it's fake, I wouldn't dare wear such a big one." Meng Meng curled her lips in shock. Such a big pendant was given away like this...
