Chapter 1,347 Leading the Trend
Mother Tian has been in the United States for more than 20 years, but it is not for nothing.
It is much easier for her to get good stuff than for ordinary people. So, she moved all the good stuff she just got to Zhai's house and gave it to Qiao Nan.
At this time, Mother Tian felt a little bit of the benefit of having a daughter-in-law like Zhai Hua.
If she were to do this with another daughter-in-law, the daughter-in-law would definitely whisper in her son's ear and make her son angry with her. Zhai Hua is different. She gave the good stuff to Qiao Nan, which made Zhai Hua happier than to Zhai Hua.
In a word, she was happy to give it, her daughter-in-law was happy to see it, her son was relieved and satisfied, and everyone was happy.
Is there anything more pleasant than this way of giving?
Facing Mother Tian's desire to dress herself up like she dresses her daughter, Qiao Nan almost couldn't resist Mother Tian's overwhelming enthusiasm. As time went by, the Tian family's attitude towards Qiao Nan became better and better, so good that Qiao Nan mistakenly believed that she was not Ding Jiayi's daughter, but perhaps an illegitimate daughter of the Tian family who was left outside.
She could say that almost half of the clothes in her wardrobe, which could no longer be put into the closet, were given by Tian's mother.
Now, not only clothes, but also bottles and jars used by women, were all taken care of by Tian's mother.
With just one glance, Qiao Nan determined that the pile was all cosmetics, including skin care products and makeup. There were some that she could name, and there were even more that she couldn't name.
Qiao Nan felt that if she could really use all these things, she might have to find time to sign up for a makeup class.
After pinching her fingers, Qiao Nan could hardly calculate how much money this pile of things would cost.
Miao Liang thought for a moment and accepted these things for Qiao Nan: "Nan Nan, I think what your Aunt Fen said is quite right. You have more and more internship time. Although you are only a junior now, you have completed all the course credits and even passed the graduation thesis with excellent grades. You are just one step away from graduation? I remember that your master assigned you a lot of tasks. From now on, if you go out with a clean face, it will not be beautiful. Today, your Aunt Fen thought carefully and prepared these things for you in advance. Otherwise, I would have to drive you out of the house and buy some for you."
There is no way, who let the few women in the family not be keen on these.
Qiao Nan married well, but she has always been frugal. In addition to her status as a student, Qiao Nan's dress is more like a college student than the average college student. Except for the fact that Qiao Nan has a car to pick her up when she goes home, no one can tell from Qiao Nan that Qiao Nan is not only married, but also married very well.
After being persuaded by Miao Liang, Qiao Nan became more serious: "That's a problem, Aunt Fen, thank you."
Knowing that the Tian family is not short of money, at this time, Qiao Nan is willing to return the money for these things to Hu Fen, but Hu Fen may not be willing to accept it.
Zhai Hua raised his hand: "Why thank you, we are all family. Nan Nan, if you use these things well, remember to tell me, and I will get you more next time. Women should take care of themselves when they are young, and it is a good time for you to take care of them now."
Qiao Nan sneered: "You are also a woman, you are pregnant, you must not touch these things. When the baby in your belly is born, do you want to study with me?"
It's not that Qiao Nan despises Zhai Hua, it's just that she knows Zhai Hua's personality too well. He can only talk about others, but he can't do it himself.
Zhai Hua himself is so lazy, and he still has the nerve to persuade her to use more.
Zhai Hua smiled bitterly: "Hahaha, I'm pregnant now. As for what happens after giving birth, let's talk about it after eight months." She was really pregnant and was about to become a mother. Zhai Hua was so happy that she almost lost her mind.
Afterwards, Zhai Hua talked to Qiao Nan about some "inside stories" about these things: "No matter how much my mother-in-law gives you, just keep it. You probably don't know which area Uncle Shi is in charge of recently? Because you have 1% of the shares in the company, although it's not much, Dongzi definitely gets a lot of convenience. These things, no matter how much, just take it."
This is not free.
What satisfied Zhai Hua was that after getting the advantage of Qiao Nan, the people in her husband's family still remembered this matter very conscientiously. They didn't forget Qiao Nan when they had any good things, and sent them to Qiao Nan one by one.
Zhai Hua knew that with Qiao Nan's personality, the pile of things her mother-in-law sent today, not counting the clothes, just those for her face, would cost tens of thousands of yuan, and she couldn't buy them all. After Qiao Nan married into the Zhai family, apart from the tuition fees, when did she spend a lot of money?
Even for tuition fees, the scholarships earned by Qiao Nan could cover part of it.
Zhai Hua spent too much time in the army, and was different from other girls. Even if she bought a lot of good clothes, she still felt that these clothes were not as comfortable and free as camouflage uniforms.
As for Qiao Nan, she dressed even more simply than her. In summer, she wore a large cotton T-shirt and a pair of jeans, and rarely wore a skirt. In winter, she wore heavy cotton clothes, and even down jackets were bought by her mother.
Qiao Nan put on the washed-out jeans on her legs, and hey, they really looked different. It didn't look like the jeans were old, but rather they were deliberately made like this, making the jeans look different.
In addition, Qiao Nan's legs were long and thin.
Once, Zhai Hua and Qiao Nan went out to buy something, and were stopped by a young and fashionable girl. The girl grabbed Qiao Nan's hand and insisted: "Beauty, your pants are the latest style, right? Where did you buy them? I haven't seen them in this part of the capital. Are they bought in Hong Kong or Shanghai? Tell me, I want to buy a pair too."
When this happened, Zhai Hua was so shocked that his eyes almost fell out.
A pair of jeans that were washed white, and someone caught him and asked where he bought them, absolutely absolutely? Absolutely!
Later, Qiao Nan told Zhai Hua that there is a kind of jeans in the world called washed jeans, and there are really jeans that are made like this on purpose. Qiao Nan also popularized the future fashion trends to Zhai Hua: "Don't say it's washed, do you believe that jeans in the future will be deliberately worn out with a few holes?" This is the famous beggar's holey jeans.
In a word, Qiao Nan didn't spend much money, she wore a pair of jeans for many years, not to mention washing them white, and trimmed them herself. She and her family despised Qiao Nan for being too frugal and wearing "ripped pants", but Qiao Nan proved herself to the Zhai family with her own strength. People with a lot of luxury goods still chased after her and asked where she bought her clothes and pants.
Even if the elders didn't quite understand the trends that young people talked about, Qiao Nan's dressing style was liked by her peers and they rushed to imitate her.
