Chapter 118: More valuable than you think
Chapter 118 More precious than you think
Xia Ling frowned, hearing the sarcasm in her words, and wanted to sneer back, but looked up at Grandma Ye and held back. It's true that she has a bad temper, but it depends on who she is in front of. She has always been very tolerant of people she values.
She still smiled: "Grandma, I bought a set of clothes for you."
Speaking, he handed the large, beautifully packaged paper box to Grandma Ye.
Grandma Ye took it and touched the box. The smile at the corner of her eyes and eyebrows became more loving, "Good boy, you will come back as soon as you come back. Why do you have to spend money? It's not easy for a little girl like you to work outside. It's not easy to make money." You need to save some money, you know.”
Xia Ling's heart felt hot. This was the first word of concern she heard after arriving at this home. There were no false compliments and praises. Only Grandma Ye saw the hardships and difficulties behind her scenery and gave her earnest advice.
This blind old woman has a clearer heart than anyone else.
So Xia Ling also said softly: "Grandma, I am sensible."
The fourth aunt on the side couldn't stand it and pretended to cough: "It's just a cardboard box. What kind of clothes? Come open it and take a look, let us all open our eyes."
· Although SSD's clothes are beautifully packaged, they are never over-packaged. They look like just an ordinary, nice-looking large paper box, no different from those bought in ordinary shopping malls, and even the colors and patterns are simpler and more low-key. When the fourth aunt took a look at it, she decided that it was just an ordinary shopping mall product. It might not be a big brand in the shopping mall. She wanted to show Xia Ling in front of everyone and make her look embarrassed. Huh, what happened to the star? It's not like a star has to bow his head in front of a rich wife like her.
Xia Ling ignored her and took Grandma Ye's hand: "Grandma, come and open it." She guided Grandma Ye to open the big paper box together. The old man was old and couldn't see, so his movements were a little slow. Xia Ling But Ling was very meticulous and patient, without any urging. She left several important seals to grandma to open, allowing the elderly to experience the fun of opening gifts.
Finally, the packaging was opened, and Grandma Ye’s hands touched the camel hair clothing.
"It's such a soft material," Grandma Ye paused as she touched her wrinkled hands and asked, "Little girl, you must have spent a lot of money." When she was young, she worked on a large ranch. , I have also been exposed to some hair-dressing work. At this time, when I touched it with my hands, I knew that it was the best kind of fabric and it must not be cheap.
Xia Ling said, "It didn't cost much." She didn't want her grandma to worry, and things worth tens of thousands of yuan were not very valuable in her eyes. This is also because Li Lei was sensible and gave the simplest and most versatile basic items instead of more expensive ones. If it was beyond her financial ability, she would definitely return it without saying a word.
Grandma Ye warned again: "It's not easy for you outside. Don't spend so much money on grandma in the future. How many years can your grandma and I, an old woman, wear clothes?"
"It's my birthday, Mom, what are you talking about?" The fourth aunt's voice interrupted, her sly eyes turning around on the suit of clothes, "Xiao Ling said it didn't cost much. You don’t have to worry too much, right, Xiao Ling? Just tell grandma how much it costs.”
Before Xia Ling could speak, Aunt Liu on the side had already stopped: "I said her fourth aunt, Xiao Ling, this child is not sensible, are you as ignorant as her? Xiao Ling is a big star, this outfit can Cheap? She said it didn’t cost much. She was trying to comfort our mother. Do you believe this? If Xiao Ling revealed the price, wouldn’t it make our mother feel unhappy? He was talking like a barrage of words, just to shut up the fourth aunt, no matter what, he couldn't let the fourth aunt's family outshine his own!
When the fourth uncle saw someone bullying his wife, he also joined the fight: "Third sister-in-law, that's not what I said. No matter how expensive it is, can it be as expensive as this mahogany bed given by our family? Xiaoling has become a star, I don't think she can. No matter how much money you make, you may not be able to afford something valuable. Even if you tell me the price, it’s cheap anyway, so I’ll give Mom some relief.” “You!” Aunt Liu was so angry that her eyes bulged out, but she couldn’t think about it. It's all Ye Xingling's fault, that stinky girl! I asked her to buy an expensive birthday gift, but she just bought a set of clothes! How could this stinky girl be so stingy and ignorant, and she was so implicated that she couldn't even hold her head high in front of the fourth child and his family!
Xia Ling didn't want to argue with them. The gifts had been delivered anyway, and grandma just needed to dress warmly.
As for fame, fortune, and face, she had already reached the peak in her previous life. It was an unattainable height from which she could overlook everyone present. She had seen every battle no matter how big it was. As for fighting these ordinary people for such a trivial matter, Making a big fuss?
At the moment, the first priority is to make Grandma Ye happy.
So, she said lightly: "It's really not worth a lot of money. In terms of price, it is far inferior to the mahogany bed of the fourth uncle." The fourth uncle of the Ye family is in the furniture business. , the thing given to my mother is made of real materials, first-class logs and carvings, it is top-grade even among mahogany beds, and it is worth a lot of money, but it is indeed far from what can be obtained for tens of thousands of dollars.
Hearing what she said, the fourth uncle and the fourth aunt became happy again.
Fourth Aunt glanced at Aunt Liu triumphantly: "Did you hear that? Xiao Ling is still sensible and knows how to buy cheap things."
Aunt Liu was so angry that she vomited blood. She couldn't find a reason for the attack, so she could only glare at Xia Ling hatefully.
Xia Ling just pretended not to see it, and slowly helped her grandma fold the camel hair clothes and pants, and warned: "Grandma, put it away. Be careful when washing these clothes, and be careful when storing them, so as not to attract insects." It's rotten." Originally, she only knew how to wear clothes, so how could she know about storage and washing? It was because Li Lei was so considerate that he wrote a small card and explained all the precautions clearly on it. He said that this kind of clothing material is purely natural and has high protein content. It is more likely to attract insects than other clothing materials. Especially in rural areas, you must be careful.
The fourth aunt sneered: "It's not a very expensive thing. If it gets eaten away, just buy it again."
The fourth aunt provoked her again and again, and Xia Ling finally couldn't hold back her anger. She was also drunk. She kept giving in for Grandma Ye's sake, but others thought she was a soft persimmon to be bullied? !
Just when she was hesitating whether to teach her fourth aunt a lesson, a clean male voice interrupted: "His fourth aunt, you are wrong. In terms of money alone, this set of clothes is indeed not as good as the mahogany bed your family gave you. It’s valuable, but you can buy a mahogany bed, but you may not be able to buy this set of clothes. This set of clothes is much more expensive than you think, and it’s something you can’t buy even if you have money.”
As soon as these words came out, everyone looked over.
The person speaking was a young man, wearing a white shirt, smiling elegantly, and looking polite.
