Presents From My Family

After this, she was going to buy some meat and other small things.

She had received 300 liang from Madame Qiao, and she was going to learn how to make money, so she feared nothing.

The things here were not very expensive, so after buying one wagon full of stuff, Qiao Xuan only spent a dozen liang.

Qiao Xuan felt so fruitful when she had bought so much!

Shao Yunduan had intended to ask her not to buy things, but when he was reminded that she had always been living a well-to-do life, he allowed her to buy whatever she wanted for herself.

He felt a bit guilty, and could not help but ask her to buy things for herself, not for the whole family.

Qiao Xuan said confidently, “But Mom treats me so nicely. Qi, Tao and you as well are always kind towards me. We don’t have to be so calculative. Anyway, you can repay me when you become successful in the future.”

Shao Yunduan, who was naturally terrible at saying things, could not find words to counter her.

The two of them came home with a wagon full of stuff, which startled Ms. Fang, Ms. Xu as well as Shao Taotao.

Ms. Xu could not help but feel very joyful inside her heart, when she saw the daily necessities.

They were living together, so those things were for all of them to share!

Her fifth sister-in-law was so generous!

But then, she could not help but feel jealous of her. She was not a match against her fifth sister-in-law, who was born in a County Magistrate’s family.

“Why did you buy so much? How much did everything cost?!” Ms. Fang asked.

Qiao Xuan smiled. “Mom, we barely visit the town. Moreover, these are not so expensive. Just put them away!”

The mother-in-law instantly understood what she meant. Instead of asking anything more, Ms. Fang nodded. “Okay, Ms. Xu, Qi and Taotao, come and help!”

Together with Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan, they carried the stuff inside the room and put them away neatly.

When Qiao Xuan was buying the meat, she just could not help but feel like eating braised rib-bone and deep-fried pork. So, she volunteered to make two dishes tonight for them.

Ms. Fang nodded and agreed, asking Ms. Xu and Taotao to help her.

They were just talking when Ms. Niu, who was holding her grandson in her arms, came with Ms. Ma.

The two of them had already started to make a plan the moment they went into the yard.

Ms. Ma looked about and said, “I heard that you brought home a wagon full of presents from your mother’s family. We are a family, so I believe that we should be given some portion as well. I don’t think that you should keep the good things all for yourself.”

“I agree!” Ms. Niu added. “Unless you don’t regard us as family. But I don’t think that Elder Brother agrees with it.”

Ms. Fang had a terrible look on her face and she was about to speak when Qiao Xuan came there.

Qiao Xuan was on the same side as she was, so she explained. “You have misunderstood us, Second Sister-in-law and Third Sister-in-law. I bought those things with my own dowry. They are not presents from my mother’s family.”

Qiao Xuan felt that she had already put it clearly. Those were not presents from her mother’s family, but bought by herself. Therefore, no one outside this family would be able to get a portion.

Unfortunately, Eldest Uncle of the Shao Family always regarded his brothers’ families as one, and kept sharing food and stuff with the other sections of the family. As long as the other sections of the family expressed some gratitude, he would feel satisfied.

Therefore, during the past few years, it had been natural for the other two sections of the families to get stuff from the first section of the family.

Hearing what Qiao Xuan said, Ms. Niu snapped. “It is all the same. We are one family, how can you be so cruel seeing us drink porridge whilst you are eating fish and meat?”
