Chapter 2236 No Matter What
Qiao Zijin had been saying that Qiao Nan would not do that, and would not say a word about other promises. Seeing Qiao Zijin trying to convince herself for ten minutes, Ding Jiayi, who had been silent, finally responded.
She went back to her room silently and took out the New Year clothes Qiao Nan had given her one by one.
Qiao Zijin, who was following behind Ding Jiayi, saw this and smiled. She said that her mother listened to her the most. Qiao Nan had gone too far this time, and she had to teach Qiao Nan a lesson so that Qiao Nan could understand the truth. In the future, Qiao Nan could only be honest and either buy clothes for all three of them, and no matter who was left out, she could not be left out.
Hmm? Wait!
"Mom, what are you doing with the scissors?" She just asked her mother to send the clothes back to scare Qiao Nan, but she didn't say that her mother cut the clothes directly. It's a pity that the expensive clothes were really cut.
Before the clothes were cut, Qiao Nan only needed to make up one more set of clothes for her. Once her mother did something so radical, Qiao Nan would have to buy two more sets of clothes. Qiao Zijin was really worried that the money for buying two more sets of clothes would hurt Qiao Nan so much that she would not want to care about Ding Jiayi as her mother anymore. Wouldn't she be left with no new clothes to wear?
"Click", the clothes were cut, but unlike what Qiao Zijin had guessed, Ding Jiayi did not cut the clothes to pieces, but cut off the packaging bags and tags of the clothes.
Qiao Zijin's heart was lifted up, and then she let it go: "Mom, you are so smart. No wonder they say that old ginger is still spicy. Why didn't I think of this. If the tag was still there, Qiao Nan could take the clothes back to the mall. But the tag was cut off, and Qiao Nan wanted to return it, but the mall would not accept it. As for her mother-in-law, I have seen her. She is much older than you. These clothes are suitable for you, but not for her mother-in-law. There is no way to turn around and please her mother-in-law."
Also, Qiao Nan's mother-in-law is the wife of an old leader. If she takes clothes that others don't want to please her mother-in-law, Qiao Nan will have to divorce Zhai Sheng if she doesn't want to stay in the Zhai family anymore.
Such expensive clothes cannot be returned, and it is not suitable to give them to others. It is particularly wasteful to keep them at home, so she can only send them back to her mother. At that time, Qiao Nan had no choice but to compromise, so she could only be obedient and send her set of clothes together.
Humph, if you want to fight with her, you are too early to be cruel. It's been almost forty years. How come Qiao Nan still can't figure it out even today when she's already a mother?
Just when Qiao Zijin was feeling proud, Ding Jiayi not only cut the tags off the clothes, but also filled water and soaked the clothes in water to wash them, except for the coat, of course.
Qiao Zijin frowned: "Mom, don't bother with that. Don't wash them. We won't wear them. As long as the tags are cut, Qiao Nan can't return them. It doesn't matter whether they are washed or not." It was so cold that even if the sun was out, the temperature was not particularly high. It would probably take two or three days to wash and dry them.
Qiao Zijin hoped to get the clothes Qiao Nan gave her as soon as possible, wash and iron them, and wait to wear them when she attends the class reunion next spring. It would take two or three days to dry the clothes like this. It would take time for Qiao Nan to buy the clothes, and it would take time for the express delivery to send them back. Don't procrastinate like this for a while, and then drag it out for two days. In the end, she can't wear this new dress to attend the class reunion. She has to spend money in her pocket to save face.
Thinking of this, Qiao Zijin tried to snatch the clothes back from Ding Jiayi: "Fortunately, it's not soaked. It will dry faster with a hair dryer. Mom, don't wash it, send it back to Qiao Nan first. Don't worry, the method I think of will definitely work, there will be no accidents."
From beginning to end, Ding Jiayi let Qiao Zijin talk alone, and she didn't say a word. Seeing Qiao Zijin coming to grab the clothes, Ding Jiayi simply exerted force and completely immersed the clothes in cold water. Her own daughter knows that the water in this winter is very cold, even if it is drawn from the well,
it is only slightly warm. In Qiao Zijin's life, in winter, except for taking a bath and washing hands and eating, there is no time to get her hands wet.
Sure enough, when the clothes were completely soaked in water, Qiao Zijin froze when she was about to grab the clothes: "Mom..." What does this mean?
What does it mean?
Ding Jiayi did not answer directly, but poured detergent into the water, and then indirectly said: "You are right, this clothes just came off the factory assembly line, it is not clean, you have to wash it before you can wear it." She will not send this clothes back, she wants to wear it herself.
Ding Jiayi has no habit of buying clothes, but she knows that the more important the festival is, the more expensive the clothes in the mall are, the higher the price, and the better the discount. What if Qiao Nan really ignores her, she would rather leave these clothes at home and pile up dust than agree. Then should she not wear new clothes during the New Year this year, letting others laugh at her, or should she spend a lot of money to buy them herself and pretend to be rich?
Ding Jiayi was reluctant to spend the little money in her pocket. With such a set of clothes in her hand, and so many neighbors praised it, Ding Jiayi was very proud, so she didn't want to send it back and wanted to wear it herself.
At her age, she worked hard to raise two daughters. Is it too much for her to wear a better set of clothes for the New Year? Not too much! As for the little conflicts between the two daughters, she can manage what she can, and she can't manage what she can't, so there is nothing she can do.
"?" Qiao Zijin's eyes had two question marks, and then she watched her mother wash the new clothes in clean water at her fastest speed, and then put them in the washing machine to spin out the water. Seeing that the situation was not right, Qiao Zijin approached Ding Jiayi again: "Mom, what do you mean now?"
Looking at her mother's behavior, it didn't seem like she was going to listen to her arrangement, return the clothes to Qiao Nan, and force Qiao Nan to make up a set of clothes for her.
Ding Jiayi said while hanging the clothes: "Zijin, Mom is this age. If I really don't have that blessing, I won't count on it. However, I already have this condition, and I also hope to enjoy the blessing. No matter how much money you have, I have never worn such good clothes. You have to consider your mother, I still have a few years to live. It's not too much to enjoy such a little blessing while I'm alive. If I can help you with your affairs, I will help you. If I can't help, I have nothing to say if I don't have the ability."
