164 Ms. Fang’s Intention
Ms. Xu, who did not have the courage to accept it, heard Qiao Xuan’s smiling voice. “Just take it, Elder Sister-in-law. Lip balm can be used every day, it is colorless. You can also put on lipsticks to make yourself look much more attractive. You can even give it to someone else as a present. I will go into town and visit the flusher’s store so I can buy some skin cream for you, which together with a lipstick, will make you look much healthier!”
Motivated, Ms. Xu thought about giving one to her own sister and sister-in-law. It would be a very practical thing to add to her face. So, she thanked her and accepted the gifts with a smile.
When they came home from the floral field, they ran into Ms. Niu and Ms. Ma who were still pestering the family about the spring plowing.
The two women were so angry but could not say a thing. They tried to reason with Ms. Fang.
Ms. Fang looked calm and replied the same thing over and over again. “We have drawn contracts, you don’t need to worry about anything. I will take the responsibility if your fields are ruined…”
That made Ms. Niu and Ms. Ma even more annoyed.
It was the spring plowing! What if the plow is postponed and they had nothing to harvest before autumn? They would have to starve! Of course, they were really anxious.
What was Ms. Fang planning!
Seeing their anxious look, Ms. Fang felt really glad within her heart.
She was going to make them become even more anxious, so they would have no heart to eat or sleep!
Seeing Qiao Xuan return, Ms. Ma could not help but throw her temper at her. “What are you doing outside every day? No daughter-in-law should behave like this! You are so ill-mannered.”
Qiao Xuan chuckled and blinked. “Third Aunt-in-law, my mother-in-law approves of my idling outside. She loves me!”
Ms. Fang sneered and snorted. “Yes, I love to see my daughters-in-law having fun and they can do whatever they want! I am quite satisfied with them. They are so kind and well-behaved!”
Ms. Ma was so irritated that she was speechless.
Ms. Fang was being so arrogant because she had a good daughter-in-law!
Well, it seemed that a rich, good daughter-in-law could make people arrogant.
That made her feel even worse.
Without the intention of speaking with them any more, Ms. Fang said impatiently, “You can go home now. I have already promised you. What are you afraid of, do you not trust me?”
Ms. Niu forced a smile. “That is not true…”
“Well, okay then!”
Ms. Niu. “…”
“We will wait until you fulfill your promise. You won’t starve us, right? Otherwise, we will have to come to your home to eat.”
Ms. Fang laughed. “Are you still asking again when you know about this already?”
Ms. Niu. “…”
Ms. Fang added. “But you are wrong. I have only taken responsibility for your rakes, not anything else. Don’t come to me no matter whether you have food to eat. You can’t keep taking advantage of us all the time!”
Ms. Niu was stuck in words!!
When the two women left, Qiao Xuan told Ms. Fang about lipsticks. Ms. Fang did not have much knowledge of it except that it did look exquisite and made her speak highly of it.
“It is going to sell well, right!”
Qiao Xuan nodded. “Definitely!”
Cheerfully, Ms. Fang said, “Okay, okay, only you are able to come up with an idea like this. Keep the money well, and don’t tell anyone…”
“Of course, Mom!”
Ms. Fang smiled and stressed that to Ms. Xu, who promised her as well. She was not going to counter her mother-in-law!
