Chapter 310 There's no need to panic.
So she got up early this morning, had her mother braid her hair, and skipped and hopped to Old Chen's house, wanting Gu Tingyun to see that she was much prettier than that chubby girl, Guai Bao!
Before Gu Tingyun could answer, the twins beside her muttered, "Not pretty! Big sister Guaibao is prettier!"
Zhao Fangfang was very unconvinced and glared at Helian Jiao angrily: "Nonsense! I'm prettier than her!"
Her mother always said that boys wouldn't like girls who were too fat or too thin, and only girls who were neither too fat nor too thin were the most lovable!
Then, to everyone's shock, they discovered that the chubby girl and Gu Tingyun were wearing the same clothes!
So she angrily pointed at Helian Jiao and asked, "Where did you buy this dress? I want to buy one too!"
She wanted to wear the same clothes as Gu Tingyun!
"have no idea."
Helian Jiao blinked her big, moist eyes and said very honestly, "Aunt Jiang bought this. Go ask Aunt Jiang."
When Zhao Fangfang heard that it was Gu Tingyun's mother who bought it for her, she became even angrier!
She also liked the gentle and beautiful Jiang Manyun, and the tall and handsome Gu Qingshan, but they all liked this chubby girl!
Unable to compete in terms of clothes, she started showing off the red envelopes she received: "I received quite a few red envelopes yesterday, totaling a full two yuan!"
Two yuan is a lot of money; it's enough to buy a pound of pastries at the supply and marketing cooperative.
Chen Erbao immediately jumped out and shouted, "You only got a two-yuan red envelope, not as much as me. I got three yuan!"
Although his mother had forcibly taken away his large red envelope, it was still more than Zhao Fangfang's.
Zhao Fangfang's eyes widened immediately. "Impossible! You must be lying to me!"
Their family was the best off in the entire commune!
Chen Erbao raised his chin and said, "Why would I lie to you? All the kids in my family have three yuan! And my little darling even has forty yuan!"
"Forty yuan?!" Zhao Fangfang's voice instantly rose eight octaves. "I don't believe it!"
How could she have so much money? Chen Erbao must be bragging.
Not only her, but even Chen Honghong looked on in disbelief.
Forty yuan in red envelopes is way too much!
Her monthly salary is only about twenty yuan.
It seems that the Gu family definitely treats Guaibao like their own daughter!
Chen Erbao pointed at Gu Tingyun with a smug look and said, "It was Tingyun and Aunt Jiang who gave it to me, twenty yuan each!"
His smug expression made it seem as if it wasn't Helian Jiao who had forty yuan, but rather he himself who had forty yuan.
After all, forty yuan is an astronomical figure in the eyes of a rural child these days.
Zhao Fangfang looked at Gu Tingyun anxiously and said, "He's bragging! You and Aunt Jiang didn't give Guaibao twenty yuan!"
She knew that the more her elders liked her, the more New Year's money they would give her.
Twenty yuan!
That must be how much you like it!
Gu Tingyun nodded and said, "I gave it to you."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Fangfang's eyes immediately reddened, she stomped her foot in anger, and then sadly turned and ran away.
She comes here every day, and the rest of the Chen family are used to it. Anyway, no one hits or scolds her, and they are not afraid of what others will say.
Zhou Zhaodi stood next to Chen Erbao, and the smug expressions on the faces of the mother and son were exactly the same.
Zhao Fangfang is neither as pretty nor as lucky as Guai Bao, so she definitely won't be able to steal the future son-in-law from the Chen family!
There's absolutely no need to panic!

Rest days always seem to fly by, and before we knew it, it was the fifth day of the Lunar New Year. On the sixth day, we'd all be back to working in the fields.
