Chapter 83 I gave this jewelry to Qiaqia
The twins born to Shang Xinmei have grown a lot taller. The two children are playing video games in the living room with a young assistant.
The Wu family's personnel structure is relatively complicated, with a large number of relatives.
Shang Xinmei's husband Wu Xinghan, Jiang Qia's stepfather, still looked expressionless.
Wu Xinghan's father is no longer alive, but his mother, Mrs. Wu, is still alive. His younger sister, Wu Xingcai, returned to the Wu family after her divorce. Before this, Jiang Qia called her aunt.
Jiang Qia didn't remember all those other relatives.
Except for Shang Xinmei, who is related to Jiang Qia by blood, no one else has any blood relationship with Jiang Qia and cannot be considered Jiang Qia's relatives.
Everyone is in the same circle. The Wu family is a well-known large enterprise in the country and attaches great importance to family relationships.
Previously, these people disliked Jiang Qia because she was born in Shang Xinmei's first marriage and was a burden to the Wu family. They instigated Shang Xinmei's twins to isolate Jiang Qia, their half-sister.
Ever since Jiang Qia married the Huo family, these people's attitudes have changed, and they always want to get close to them.
However, ever since the Wu family asked Shang Xinmei to invite Huo Wenyi over despite repeated attempts, these people have changed their attitude towards Jiang Qia.
His attitude was a little better than at the beginning, but not as good as when he first found out that Jiang Qia and Huo Wenyi were getting married.
Fortunately, Jiang Qia is now very thick-skinned and doesn't care about all kinds of looks. He walked in with Shang Xinmei's arm in hand and greeted everyone in a calm manner.
"Hello, Madam, Uncle Wu, and Aunt Wu."
Jiang Qia's eyes curved, and his every move was graceful and elegant, with absolutely no faults in his etiquette.
Wu Xingcai felt very uncomfortable and stared at Jiang Qia coldly: "After getting married, you have become much more mature than before. Before, you would not say hello to people when you saw them."
Jiang Qia smiled and said, "I was still a child before I grew up. How could my aunt care so much about a child like me? She kept remembering such a small thing for so long."
Wu Xingcai's face turned ugly: "You——"
Although Wu Xingcai has been divorced once, she is not old, only 28 years old this year. Although she is a few years older than Jiang Qia, she is the same age as Huo Wenyi.
Jiang Qia never called her that when he saw her before, but this time he called her "little aunt". Wu Xingcai always felt that he was calling her old.
Speaking of which, although the original owner was rebellious in the past, he would remain silent and even cower in situations like the Wu family.
Jiang Qia could understand Jiang Qia's mentality.
The original owner was young at that time, and puberty was a sensitive age. Everyone in the room treated her as an outsider. Even her twin brothers and sisters hated her. No matter how she behaved, they would not accept her. It was normal for them to be unwilling to speak.
Jiang Qia is able to be so calm and composed precisely because she doesn't care.
Wu Xingcai looked at Shang Xinmei: "Sister-in-law, look at your Jiang Qia."
If it were before, Shang Xinmei would definitely force Jiang Qia to apologize to Wu Xingcai.
Shang Xinmei didn't know what was wrong with her today. She was completely different from before: "Jiang Qia is a child. As his aunt, you shouldn't be so petty as to argue with him."
Madam Wu said, "Xingcai, stop talking so much and just sit down."
The dining room in the Wu family's old house has a long European-style table. The light from the crystal chandelier falls on the bone china plates with gold edges, like puddles of cold cream that cannot be melted.
Old Madam Wu sat at the head of the table, and the empty seat on her left was reserved for Huo Wenyi, even though Huo Wenyi would not come today.
Shang Xinmei was placed on her right, Jiang Qia next to her, and the twins opposite her.
The two little kids had just been brought out of the game room by their assistant, still clutching the blue Switch controllers in their hands, their cheeks flushed. When they saw Jiang Qia, their attitudes changed, and they actually spoke in unison.
"elder sister!"
Wu Xingcai sneered and wiped her hands with a hot towel: "Oh, you two little traitors, just now you told me that big sister is bad and you don't allow her to come to the house."
The younger twin brother spoke quickly: "Assistant Liang said that if we say hello to her, Dad will take us out to play."
Jiang Qia said indifferently: "Haha, you are so sensible."
The Wu family has poor family education, and the two children look very much like their aunt Wu Xingcai.
Jiang Qia did not have any so-called sisterly or brotherly love for them.
Moreover, Jiang Qia looks nothing like the twins.
The twins look like their father. Wu Xinghan's appearance is not particularly ugly, but he is not good-looking either. He has the common face of a big boss, and he is a bit fat and has big ears.
The original owner Jiang Qia's father was able to marry a rich and beautiful woman like Shang Xinmei who is worth over 100 million yuan. His handsome face is very authoritative.
Jiang Qia's appearance combines the strengths of his parents. He and the twins not only don't look like siblings, but also don't seem to be from the same dimension.
In fact, when Jiang Qia came in, everyone saw more of her face and didn't pay much attention to her accessories and clothes.
Wu Xingcai had sharp eyes and noticed the diamond necklace on Jiang Qia's neck.
Wu Xingcai said, "Sister-in-law, is the necklace on Jiang Qia's neck yours?"
This antique diamond necklace is very famous. It was named "Marie Antote's Last Tear" at the time. The twenty-seven old-cut diamonds are like a string of frozen star rain. The teardrop-shaped main diamond at the lowest end weighs 33 carats. Shang Xinmei bought it for 4 million Swiss francs fifteen years ago.
This piece of jewelry is also one of Shang Xinmei's collections, and Wu Xingcai has coveted it for a long time.
But this was Shang Xinmei's pre-marital belonging, and no matter how shameless she was, she was too embarrassed to ask for it directly.
Shang Xinmei nodded: "I gave this jewelry to Qia Qia."
As soon as the voice fell, Wu Xingcai looked embarrassed and said to her twin sister Wu Yue next to her: "Look, your mother gave your things to outsiders."
Wu Yue already knew what was going on at her age. She pouted and burst into tears, clamoring for the necklace. The scene suddenly became chaotic.
Shang Xinmei's face turned pale.
Jiang Qia smiled and said, "This is a gift from my mother, but it's just one piece. Aunt, I'm a stranger to you, and Wu Yue is a relative to you. You should have some jewelry, right? Why don't you coax your niece and give her one or two pieces?"
Shang Xinmei also spoke up: "Yes, Mom, where is the diamond necklace you gave to my aunt last year? Let my aunt give it to Wu Yue. Qia Qia is my daughter, so it's only natural for me to give her something."
Wu Xingcai and Old Madam Wu were both stunned.
Wu Xingcai then said with an uneasy look, "What kind of necklace should a child wear? Let's talk about this later... Assistant Liang, go and comfort the young lady."
The assistant quickly coaxed Wu Yue away, and the dining table returned to silence.
