Chapter 497 - 479 Teaching the Daughter
"Why did you bring so many clothes back with you? You haven’t fallen out with Chengye, have you?"
Qi’s mother was somewhat puzzled. She and Qi’s father were aware that their daughter had a wealthy boyfriend for a few years now. Normally, all those fine clothes and jewelry their daughter had were gifts from him, and the money she periodically gave to them, along with the gold rings, gold earrings, gold bracelets, gold necklaces, and the fine tobacco and spirits for the old man... were also purchased with money he provided.
She had been with the family’s old man for decades, and he never had the means to let her wear gold and silver or enjoy the finer things in life. It was only by basking in their daughter’s success that they got to live in style.
Moreover, the boyfriend’s family owned a company. Her niece’s classmate got a job at his company through their daughter’s connection; it was said to be a big company.
Because of this, she had a lot of face in front of her sisters-in-law back home.
So, this daughter, who was educated and capable of landing such a wealthy boyfriend, had always been their pride. As for the fact that she moved in with someone without marrying, both she and the old man chose to ignore it.
Zhao Xuan was very shrewd; she wasn’t one to suffer a loss.
"Rourou, men need to save face. Usually, you mustn’t lose your temper with others casually. Don’t be like your mom, making a fuss over every little thing. Men hate that," Qi’s father said with a serious expression as he heard the news and advised Qi Xinrou. Qi’s mother, uncharacteristically, did not argue and even nodded in agreement.
