After a pause, Chu Tian watched her put away the rest of the tickets. After thinking for a moment, he leaned closer to her and asked in a low voice, "What do you think we should give to our ally if he gets together with that girl?"
Yao Xiujuan looked at Chu Tian, thought for a moment and said, "We are just his elder sister and brother-in-law. We can either give him a four-piece suit or a thermos or something."
Chu Tian was stunned for a moment, then asked tentatively, "Isn't it too light? After all, when Sun Jianjun and Lifang got married, I gave them four sets of clothes. This friendly army is your younger brother..."
Yao Xiujuan smiled and said, "It's not a small amount. Normally, a pillowcase worth eighty cents is a good gift..."
Yao Xiujuan put the rest of the tickets in the small drawer on the kang cabinet, and put the sugar tickets, soap tickets, soap tickets and cloth tickets she took out in her pocket.
"Brother Tian, you've been running around all morning. Go get some sleep. I'm going to my aunt's and second aunt's houses..."
Having said that, Yao Xiujuan got off the kang and walked out of the inner room without waiting for Chu Tian to react.
Chu Tian blinked, thinking, if Yao Youjun is getting married, how could he possibly give the same gift? No matter how you look at it, Yao Youjun is closer, so he must give a slightly more special gift... But what should he give?
"Oh, Xiujuan, thank you so much. I really wanted to ask your brother Jie if he could exchange them for soap tickets, and you brought them here..."
"Xiujuan, thank you so much! It just so happens that the little ones at home have been clamoring for some sugar water these past few days!"
"Auntie, Second Auntie, you are too polite."
When Yao Xiujuan came to deliver the tickets, she happened to meet Chu Ren's wife and Chu Yi's wife at the door of Uncle Chu's house. Yao Xiujuan did not hide anything and took out a few tickets from her pocket and handed them to them.
Looking at the ticket Yao Xiujuan sent, Chu Ren's wife was very grateful. After thinking for a while, she asked, "Xiujuan, how do I exchange it? With money? Or?"
Yao Xiujuan smiled and waved her hands, "No, no, this is a ticket from Brother Tian. We don't need it. It will expire and be wasted if we keep it. It's better to give it to you and Second Aunt."
Chu Ren's wife waved her hands upon hearing this, "No, no, even if it's a small ten-shot one, there's no reason for us to take it for nothing..."
Chu Yi's wife also nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, your aunt is right!"
Before Yao Xiujuan could say anything else, the sour voice of Chu Jie's wife, Wang Meihua, was heard.
"Mother, all this was earned by my tenth brother for free. Why are you being so polite? My tenth brother's family is so rich, how could they possibly lack even a little bit of your money?"
When Yao Xiujuan heard this, she turned around and saw Wang Meihua walking towards her swaying body.
Seeing this, Chu Ren's wife frowned and asked, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
Wang Meihua put her hands on her hips and asked unconvincedly, "Mom, how could I say such nonsense? Chu Tian's family is so well-off, with meat, fine grains, and fruit to eat every day. Just a few free tickets, I don't know why you and Second Aunt are so polite?"
Chu Ren's wife took a deep breath and twitched the corners of her mouth, "Xiujuan, go back first, I'll come find you later..."
Chu Yi's wife's face wasn't good either, but because she wasn't her own daughter-in-law, she couldn't say anything. She looked at Yao Xiujuan and said, "Xiujuan, the tomatoes grown in Second Aunt's vegetable garden are growing very well. I remember you like them very much. I'll ask Ai Xing to bring them to you later."
"Okay, Auntie, Auntie, I'll go back first."
Yao Xiujuan greeted Chu Ren's wife and Chu Yi's wife, ignored Wang Meihua, and turned away.
Chu Tian looked at Yao Xiujuan who had returned with an angry face and was puzzled. "Xiujuan, what's wrong with you? Didn't you go to deliver the tickets to Auntie and Second Auntie?"
Yao Xiujuan was so angry that her stomach was cramping. Thinking of the baby in her belly, she quickly sat down, holding her stomach.
Chu Tian was shocked to see Yao Xiujuan holding her stomach, "Xiujuan, are you feeling unwell?"
Yao Xiujuan took a few deep breaths before slowly shaking her head, "No, I was just a little angry just now."
Chu Tian rubbed Yao Xiujuan's shoulders and asked softly, "Tell me, who made you angry? Brother Tian will help you vent your anger!"
“…That’s it.”
Yao Xiujuan told Chu Tian what had just happened in front of Chu Ren's house.
Chu Tian frowned, "Why is it her again?"
Yao Xiujuan was stunned for a moment, "Brother Tian, what do you mean?"
Chu Tian recounted the incident of Wang Meihua asking Chu Jie to borrow money behind his back. He paused and continued, "I thought that after Brother Jie's education, she would behave herself for a while. Who knows..."
Yao Xiujuan was so shocked that her mouth opened wide. Just as she was about to say something, Old Mrs. Chu walked in with a sullen face.
"Xiujuan, did Wang Meihua really say that just now?"
Chu Tian was stunned for a moment, then hurried forward to support Old Lady Chu, "Grandma, it's nothing, she just said something unpleasant, and I'll definitely teach her a lesson if I'm here!"
Seeing that Old Lady Chu looked unhappy, Yao Xiujuan was afraid that she might get angry and hurt herself, so she quickly said, "Yes, Grandma, I'm fine. She didn't say anything particularly unpleasant..."
Old Madam Chu waved her hands. "My dear grandson, Xiujuan, you don't have to say good things for her. I've lived in the same courtyard with her for several years. How could I not understand her temper? She's just a stubborn person who won't change even after repeated teachings!"
"Every day she acts like the whole family owes her something. It makes me feel annoyed just by looking at her!"
"If she hadn't given Chu Jie two children, I really wanted Chu Jie to divorce her!"
Chu Tian, "..."
Yao Xiujuan, “…”
Mrs. Chu still felt unsatisfied after she finished speaking. She gently pushed Chu Tian away, turned around and was about to walk out, saying as she walked, "No, I'm going to find your aunt and ask her to discipline that shallow-eyed guy!"
Chu Tian was stunned for a moment, then reacted and hurried forward to hold Old Lady Chu's arm, "Grandma, wait a minute..."
"Grandma, don't worry about it. My aunt was there and she would definitely take care of it. Even if she didn't, Brother Jie wouldn't just leave it alone."
Looking into Chu Tian's eyes, Mrs. Chu opened her mouth and finally sighed softly, "Okay, grandma doesn't care..."
Chu Tian smiled and said, "Yeah, grandma is the best."
Mrs. Chu patted Chu Tian's arm and said with a smile, "You and Xiujuan are the best behaved ones in our family!"
While everyone was having a good time here, the atmosphere in the main hall of Chu Ren's house next door was not very good.
Chu Ren's wife looked at her eldest and second daughters-in-law with a sullen face, "You all should take the children and go work in the fields first!"
The two daughters-in-law looked at each other. Although it was not time to go to the fields yet, they still obeyed their mother-in-law and called the children to go out. Of course, Chu Jie's two children were also taken away by them.
