1643 Itâs Fine, Iâll Settle It
âSure.â No longer embarrassed, Aunt Chen immediately beamed and said happily, âIâll go to the market to buy a fish, to make your favorite boiled fish.â
âOkay,â Qiao Nian replied.
At this moment, the noblewoman, who had hesitated not far away, walked towards them. She greeted the girl awkwardly, âNian Nian, long time no see. Youâve grown taller and thinner. Youâre even more beautiful than before.â
Her greetings were very dry. Madam Fu felt embarrassed and uneasy. She wished she could find a hole to hide in.
!!
Except she was forced into a corner.
Yesterday, Fu Sinian told her that Bai Linâs cousin had done something and provoked Qiao Nian.
She hadnât slept well all night.
Over the past year, the Fu family had been going downhill, especially after the female celebrity Fu Sinian raised outside caused trouble. Everyone saw the Ye familyâs attitude towards them.
The Fu familyâs already difficult days became even more difficult.
Without the Ye Familyâs backing, they were struggling even in a small place like Rao City.
She was worried that Wei Xueyingâs matter would make the Fu familyâs already difficult path even more difficult. She was even more worried that Ye Wangchuan would vent his anger on them because of this matter⦠Therefore, after she couldnât sleep last night, she thought about this method.
She wanted to build a good relationship with Aunt Chen, as well as Qiao Nian and Ye Wangchuan.
Although this method was a little thick-skinned, it was better than doing nothing.
After thinking about this, Madam Fu calmed down a little and forced a smile. She continued, âItâs like this. I heard from Fu Ge that Uncle Chen had an operation some time ago. Iâve always wanted to visit him, but I was so busy that I didnât have time. I finally found time today, so I bought some gifts for Uncle Chen, but Aunt Chen refused to accept them.â
Fu Ge used to go to the Qiao Familyâs house a lot in the past.
Aunt Chen was a helper there, so they knew each other.
However, Aunt Chen only knew Fu Ge and did not have much contact with him, let alone with Madam Fu.
Madam Fu didnât even like Qiao Chen back then, let alone the rest of the Qiao family.
At this moment, she acted as though they were close to each other. Feeling uncomfortable all over, Aunt Chen grabbed her hands and explained to Qiao Nian in a low voice, âThose gifts are too expensive. I-I canât accept them.â
The girl was wearing a baseball cap and a light-colored sweater today. She was dressed simply, but her aura could not be ignored.
Fu Ge was standing not far away. He wasnât as thick-skinned as his mother and was too embarrassed to come over.
However, he was looking in the direction of the girl the entire time.
However, the girl didnât even look at him. After listening to their conversation, she patted the back of Aunt Chenâs rough hand, hummed softly, and said, âItâs fine. Iâll settle it.â
âNian Nian, youâ¦â Aunt Chen looked at her again. Although the current situation left her at a loss, she had never thought of asking Qiao Nian to stand up for her.
She was about to muster up the courage to reject Madam Fu when the girl took a step forward and stood in front of her unobtrusively, then said lightly to the noblewoman, âAre these the gifts?â
Madam Fu was still feeling uneasy and worried that Qiao Nian wouldnât be willing to give her face. Now, she immediately pursed her lips and smiled. âAh, right. I bought some health supplements for Uncle Chen. Theyâre all nourishing supplements. I specifically asked the doctor, and he said that theyâre most suitable for patients.â
