Chapter 172 - Mall Collisions
I have no right to say anything about Little Flower's character.
"Seeing that Little Flower's cold face has returned back to focusing on driving, I couldn't help but have a bad taste in my mouth." Little Flower, stop. "
The car pulled steadily to the side of the road, and Little Flower turned her head to look at me.
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing."
Xiaohua frowned slightly, but did not say anything.
After the car had gone some distance, I looked out the window and casually said, "Little Flower, stop the car."
The car came to a screeching halt, and there was a beautiful drift, and my chest hurt from the shaking, even a little bit of nausea.
"Still stopping?" Little Flower put one hand on the steering wheel, the corner of her lips slightly raised, as if she was teasing a child.
I clutched at my chest. My chest was swollen to the point that it felt terrible. Half of it was due to anger while the other half was due to impact.
In the contest with Little Flower, I lost a complete mess.
I let myself sink into the couch. The pressure of my body allowed me to clearly feel that I was still alive and that there was still some life left in me.
Several times I tried to throw away my remote control.
No matter which channel I switched to, it was all about boring TV about love. Whether it was ancient times or modern times, almost all television stations were about love and love.
Perhaps it was due to the fast pace of life in the big cities, but everyone living in the cities loved love dramas. Everyone longed for someone to appear, love her, protect her, and pamper her.
However, all of this is just a dream. There is no such person. There is also no such person. In short, to put it in my own words, these people are useless.
Once they had suffered the consequences of their love, they would probably stop daydreaming.
All the plots were the same. I was in the middle of mocking the audience for this brainless drama. The phone on the coffee table started to think tirelessly that the ringtone was a song that I really liked, but after listening to it for a while, it became disgusting.
He didn't want to get up, didn't want to pick up his phone.
Sometimes, however, ideas are just ideas.
It broke away from the package on the couch and had a hint of coldness to it.
I picked up the phone and picked it up without even looking at who had called me. He then fell back into the couch.
"Hello."
"Xiangxiang, when are you coming back tomorrow? It's your grandpa's birthday the day after tomorrow. "
Dad?
"Grandpa's birthday? "I know, dad. I'll be back by noon tomorrow." Although I don't have a good relationship with grandpa, but I can't let dad make things difficult for me.
However, it still gave him a headache.
"Dad, you don't need to prepare. I'll buy it myself. Hmm, alright then." After hanging up the phone, I felt a headache coming on. Birthday presents were really hard to choose.
For the past few years, Grandpa had been looking at Grandma coldly making things difficult for Mom. Even though Mom and Dad finally moved out of the house and lived outside, Grandma still tried to make things difficult for Mom. Every time she came to our house, she always felt that Mom's arrangement didn't let him go.
He always had to say that everything his mother had paid for him was worthless, and he even always left his little sister behind to talk about things.
Such a grandma and grandpa, to be honest, I was very resistant to them in my heart. I didn't want to go back and celebrate their birthday at all.
Every year, their parents' gifts were the most valuable, but in their eyes, they were no better than a chicken in their little uncle's house. It was the same every time.
As he said this, he asked his parents to buy them some new clothes to wear.
Originally, I was planning to stay at home for the day, but now, it seemed impossible.
Although his grandfather didn't treat his parents very well, he was still an elder after all, and there was a great deal to pay attention to when giving gifts.
During this time, I had nothing to do, so I packed up a bit before heading to the commercial street.
But this time, I drove there myself and didn't inform Little Flower. I haven't forgotten what happened last time.
"Welcome, may I ask what you need? The items in our store are definitely authentic." As soon as I entered a jade shop, the clerk walked towards me quite enthusiastically with a big smile on his face. He even reached out his hand to pull my arm.
I stealthily moved to the side and said, "I'll take a look first."
Although the sales clerk still had a smile on his face, he was already wearing a fake smile.
Instead of following me, I turned around and left. Faintly, I heard a disdainful voice saying, "I'm afraid that he's just another poor fellow. If he doesn't have the money to come and go around the store, he won't be able to buy anything."
I originally wanted to buy something from this store, but I instantly lost my mood. I turned around and was about to leave, but when I saw the group of people at the entrance of the store, I was unable to move.
Thoughtless Reflection, Nanny, Zhang Mancha
"Hey, isn't this Lin Xiang? Why are you here? " Thoughtful Thoughtful placed a hand in his pocket and narrowed his eyes as he looked at me with a face full of provocation.
"Lin Xiang, are you here to buy too? It just so happens that we want to buy it as well. Zhang Mancha smiled and extended her hand towards me.
Together? I can't do it.
"I …" I opened my mouth wanting to refuse, but then I suddenly saw my mother-in-law who was holding onto Zhang Mancha's hand. She looked at me with disdain in her eyes.
"Follow me, buy some jewelry with this old woman. I won't be delaying you for long."
When I was eating at my grandma's house a while ago, although she didn't have a very intimate attitude towards me, there was no need for her to dislike me so much. Although my relationship with Gentle Dinner was about to get cold, at least I was still her wife, the daughter-in-law of this noblewoman in front of me.
If my actions displeased her, perhaps, my reputation would be tarnished.
"It won't be delayed." I tried my best to act humble and submissive, but when placed together with Zhang Mancha who had a similar face, it made me look even more unpresentable. Grandma Meng glared at me in slight anger.
"Mancha, let's go in and take a look." From start to finish, Grandma didn't mention me, but I knew I couldn't leave.
The rest of the time, it was basically Zhang Mancha's personal show. As she pointed at the jade ornaments and spoke with confidence, I, however, could not even tell what kind of jade it was.
Grandma originally saw me to become not very good color, also became ruddy a little.
Origin is the shackle that restricts a person.
No matter how hard the son of the Humble Class worked, there was still a gap between him and someone from a distinguished family.
I am already shrinking my own sense of existence. However, I have forgotten that no matter how much you reduce your sense of existence, there are some people who can accurately find you, embarrass you, and make you lose face.
"Lin Xiang? What do you think about Auntie wearing this bracelet? Jellyfish green bracelet, it is the exact color of Auntie's skin. "
I raised my head to look at the bracelet on Zhang Mancha's hand, blinked my eyes, and subconsciously nodded my head, "It's very suitable for granny to wear."
"Auntie, look, I already said that this bracelet is suitable for you, right? Lin Xiang has already said it like this, how about this, this bracelet is my gift to you, after coming back for so long, you are still treating me like your own daughter, but I have yet to give you anything that I like to look at. " Zhang Mancha said as she intimately rubbed her mother-in-law.
The smile on her mother-in-law's face became even wider, and even her smile revealed her wrinkles.
"Alright, alright, alright. Then Auntie won't be polite."
"Then we will go and pay now. Lin Xiang, help me grab the bracelet, I will take my bank card."
Without thinking, I reached out to take it.
With a "clang", the jade artifact fell onto the ground with an exceptionally loud sound.
"Ah, bracelet." I stood there in a daze, watching Zhang Mancha pick up the bracelet that was broken into two pieces, my eyes still shined with tears, as I looked at Grandma with an expression of being wronged.
"Auntie, it's all my fault, if I hadn't passed it over to Lin Xiang, the bracelet wouldn't have broken. You like this bracelet so much, sorry, sorry Auntie."
Why was she crying? It was really strange.
I stared at Zhang Mancha who was crying on the ground in confusion.
"Scram!" A huge force hit me, and when I saw those red eyes, my heartbeat slowed down.
