"Gifts? What gifts? Haven't they all been given out?" Shen Ting said matter-of-factly, with a bullying look in her eyes as she showed off endlessly to Yin Manqing, as if to say: She gives gifts to anyone, except this one. Don't give it to her.
"I...I don't have to." Yin Manqing hurriedly stepped down the steps for Shen Ting and herself, her voice trembling slightly.
"Even if you want it, you don't have to give it to me. My best gift will only be given to Sister Fu Wan." Shen Ting said proudly.
Although she is a sister on one side and a wife on the other, both of them are very important, but Shen Ting really went too far. Shen Ye was a little angry and threw the gift box originally given to him by Shen Ting towards her, "Come on, just We don’t like your inferior goods either.”
Defective goods...
Shen Ting was so angry that her eyes immediately burst into flames, "What? You said this is a defective product!" She was so angry that she opened the gift box in a panic.
"Open your eyes and see clearly. This is a suit made by hand in Italy. I specially flew to Italy to make it for you according to the size you usually wear. You actually said it was a defective product! For an insignificant woman. , in order to please an insignificant person, you even bullied your sister, right? She has been in our house all these years, and has she not received enough gifts from us? She even snatched the diamond necklace my mother gave me. After all, what else does she want to rob? To rob you of your love for me, and rob my parents of their love for me?"
The "defective goods" mentioned by Shen Ye completely irritated Shen Ting. She was so excited that she spoke without caring about Yin Manqing's face.
Yin Manqing never thought about asking Shen Ye to stand up for her, but his support made Shen Ting deeply hostile to her.
"Shen Ting, please pay attention to your words when you speak. Don't talk nonsense if you don't know what to say. She is not an insignificant woman. She is my wife and your sister-in-law. Don't bully others just because you are the daughter of the Shen family. Don’t look down on others. Did you earn the fine clothes, food, clothing, and gold and silver you have today by yourself? If you didn’t earn it through your own efforts, what right do you have to look down on others?”
Undoubtedly, he loved Shen Ting before, but her behavior disappointed him.
"Shen Ye, please stop arguing. Today is New Year's Eve. We finally got together. It doesn't matter whether we have gifts or not. I don't need anything." Yin Manqing pulled his sleeves and said in a low voice.
Even though she said it very low, Shen Ting still heard it, "It's a joke, it sounds nice. You don't need anything. I think you need everything. Look at you, let's see how well you stay at our house." Think about how much money you have made from my brother in the past few years and how much you have taken advantage of. What's wrong, I'm just telling the truth now, can't I say it? You are so noble and amazing, no one else can say it."
When Shen Ye couldn't bear it any longer, he raised his hand. When it was about to fall, Shen's father reacted quickly and stopped him, "You are the eldest brother, don't worry about it like an ignorant child, and don't take it to heart, Xiaoman, either. Although Shen Ting's temperament is rebellious, there is no malice."
"Yes, Xiaoman, don't be like Xiaoting. She has made some kind of bad friends abroad. Her temper is getting worse and worse. Don't take your father's advice seriously. Today is the Chinese New Year. It’s rare for our family to get together every year, so don’t get upset over gifts or anything like that. Mom has prepared gifts for each of you, and I’ll take you upstairs to have a look later.”
Shen's mother did not protect Shen Ting, but because it was New Year's Eve, Shen Ting only came back once or twice a year. She scolded her on the first day when she came back, and she would definitely be even more disgusted and unwilling to go home in the future.
"Mom and dad, what are you talking about..." Shen Ting protested, dissatisfied with being called a child. It was obvious that she was bullied by Shen Ye, but her parents still stood by Yin Manqing.
"Shut up." Shen Ye's tone was extremely cold, and his angry red eyes conveyed a cruel message.
Although Shen Ting was always nice in front of Shen Ye, when he really lost his temper, she was a little scared and pouted, "If you don't say it, don't say it. You shouldn't be indiscriminate in the first place." You said that the handmade suit I bought you was a defective product. Although I didn’t earn a penny myself, the gift I bought you was the living expenses my parents usually gave me. The money saved from the living expenses, you didn’t Know good from evil."
Her tone improved a lot, and the more she spoke, the more she felt aggrieved, and there were tears in her eyes. While she was aggrieved, her hostility towards Yin Manqing also became stronger. Ever since Yin Manqing entered the Shen family, her father, mother, and brother all She seems to like her very much, especially since her mother even gave her a birthday gift that she originally planned to give her, but ended up giving it to Yin Manqing.
Yin Manqing's status in this family is getting higher and higher, and she is getting less and less status. It seems that all the care and love are concentrated on Yin Manqing...
Shen Ye was still unhappy.
Shen's mother had to prevent the matter from getting more serious. She suddenly interrupted Shen Ting and said, "That's enough. Neither of you brothers and sisters are allowed to say who is wrong. If you say it's wrong, both of you are wrong. It's nonsense." It’s over. No matter how unhappy you are in your heart, it’s the Chinese New Year, so just shut up and calm down.”
When Shen Ting and Shen Ye were arguing, Fu Wan was very embarrassed, as if it was because of her arrival that they were arguing with each other on a day when they should be happy.
During dinner, Fu Wan finally spoke to Yin Manqing while everyone was busy, "Xiaoman, I'm sorry for disturbing you today. I'm sorry about Shen Ting."
Yin Manqing stared at Fu Wan. Although it was rude, she looked at Fu Wan for a long time. Did she really feel sorry, or did she come here to gloat?
Seeing that Yin Manqing didn't respond, Fu Wan called her several times to get her attention.
"It has nothing to do with you, we are destined to celebrate the New Year together." This is the first time we are together, and it is also the last time we are together.
And the future...
The person who accompanies Shen Ye during the Spring Festival every year would be Fu Wan.
Yin Manqing felt ashamed of her random thoughts about Fu Wan just now. She was probably too jealous of Fu Wan, so she thought she would take pleasure in her misfortune.
Fu Wan is so popular. Whether it's Shen's father, Shen's mother, or Shen Ting, Shen Ziqi, almost everyone likes her. Being liked by so many people, there are naturally reasons to like her. She is undoubtedly a very good and outstanding person. people.
Reunion dinner on New Year's Eve.
The Shen family, including Fu Wan, and Shen Ziqi, gathered together and enjoyed the delicious food.
Shen Ye kept putting vegetables into Yin Manqing's bowl. Shen's mother and Shen's father greeted Fu Wan and Shen Ziqi warmly. They seemed very happy and lively, but in fact Yin Manqing felt unspeakably lonely.
She was like an intruder from another world, breaking into a world that she should not have intervened in. She was truly redundant...
Shen Ting saw that Shen Ye only had Yin Manqing in his eyes. It was clear that Yin Manqing's bowl had already piled up into a hill, and he kept adding more. What kind of thing is this? He didn't care about Sister Fu Wan's feelings.
"Here, where's mine?" Shen Ting stretched out her bowl in front of Shen Ye very politely.
Shen Ye's anger hadn't completely subsided yet, so he said angrily, "Pinch it yourself."
"Partial! You are partial." Shen Ting was so fussy, with an angry face and wide-open eyes, as if she wanted to snatch all the food in Yin Manqing's bowl. But before she had such an idea, Shen Ting Ye stopped it in time, and reluctantly stuffed a large piece of meat into her bowl.
But she was still unwilling to take the bowl back reluctantly, "I want another piece."
Shen Ye had no choice but to pinch her again, "You can take the bowl away now."
Shen Ting looked at the meat in the bowl proudly, "Here, sister Fu Wan, this is what my brother gave you, you have to eat it all."
She deliberately made her words extra ambiguous and smiled like a gray wolf. Although she no longer sarcastically made things difficult for Yin Manqing, her words and deeds clearly still rejected her.
Yin Manqing has been very quiet. She originally thought that this year's New Year would be different from previous years. It was indeed different, but such a fierce impact... she really couldn't bear it.
How much money was made from Shen Ye?
How many gifts did you get from the Shen family?
Yes, although the money given to Yin Chengli was not spent on her, the meaning is actually the same.
As for gifts, Mother Shen gave her a lot of gifts, but when she passed away, none of the gifts they gave her would be returned to them.
Yin Manqing lowered her head to pick up the food in the bowl, which was hard to swallow like poison. In her ears were Mother Shen, Father Shen and Fu Wan. Shen Ziqi was joking and talking about interesting things they had together when they were young.
Those interesting things... were not something she could get in the middle of.
She couldn't say it and didn't want to say it.
After dinner, Shen Ziqi became addicted to playing cards and insisted on playing mahjong with Fu Wan and Shen Ting. Shen Ye was upset about Shen Ting's attitude and had no intention of playing with her. Shen's mother and Shen's father were called by their friends next door. Went to have tea, watch a party, and play mahjong.
"Sister-in-law, come and fight. It's not difficult to learn while fighting." Shen Ziqi tried to persuade Yin Manqing.
Yin Manqing paused and looked at Shen Ting again, not sure whether he was happy with her participation or not. Shen Ting still shook her head, clearly not wanting her to fight.
Shen Ye frowned, looking at her kindness just now, this girl was really spoiled by the Shen family.
"You go and fight, I'll teach you." Shen Ye pressed Yin Manqing onto the seat and found a chair to sit down next to her.
"A Ye is a master of mahjong. If he teaches you, you can learn it immediately." Fu Wan's words tried to relieve Yin Manqing's discomfort and nervousness. However, no matter how many good words Fu Wan said, Shen Ye could not talk to her in the living room when he came in. After looking at each other, they never looked at her again.
Fu Wan felt a lot of discomfort in her heart. Did he misunderstand her? Misunderstood that she deliberately stayed here and disturbed them. Or... he planned to completely end the remaining friendship between them.
