Chapter 875: Chapter 875: Shameless Showing Off
Ye Jiu felt a myriad of emotions after hearing this, while He Shi was equally distressed.
However, even though what she did was unfair to the third child, if time were to turn back, she would still make the same choice.
Because at that time, she had no other choice.
If Old Madam Ye were still alive and kicking, then it wouldn’t be Li Shi who is dead now, but her, He Shi.
The eldest and second always said she was biased, but recalling the past situation where she was tormented day and night, and her own son was cajoled by Li Shi to throw stones at his own mother and curse her,
To them, these memories might have long faded away, but He Shi could never forget.
Just as the two were in a sentimental moment, suddenly a loud laughter came from outside.
He Shi immediately wiped her eyes, then sat upright, once again showing her sharp demeanor.
The only person who could laugh so loudly at home is none other than Zhao Shi!
When Zhao Shi walked in, she was holding a piece of clothing and saw Ye Jiu at once, “Yo, little sister is here too. Just perfect, help me take a look. Will these clothes look good on me for Wenyu’s wedding day?”
Ye Jiu and He Shi both didn’t enjoy dealing with her, but still glanced at the clothes.
Before anyone could answer, Zhao Shi continued, “This fabric was a tribute from Wenyu to me. It’s from the largest cloth factory in the capital city, the new material from Tianxiu Pavilion. It looks slick and smooth, feels comfortable to touch, and surely feels even better to wear. If it were me, I wouldn’t bear to buy such an expensive thing. But Wenyu is so filial…”
After Zhao Shi finished speaking, she noticed the strange look from He Shi and Ye Jiu and asked, “What’s wrong?”
He Shi replied, “If you want to brag, go do it elsewhere. Don’t do it in front of me, it’s annoying to look at.”
Zhao Shi felt that her son had become an official, she was more confident at home, so the way she treated He Shi had slightly changed these days.
Not that she dared to contradict her elders, but the previous kind of respect had definitely faded.
“Mother, listen to what you’re saying. I just kindly came to ask for your opinion. Our family Wenyu has just been appointed General, and with a good event nearing soon, on his wedding day, I will be sitting up high. Naturally, I can’t dress poorly, so as not to embarrass our family…”
“Wenyu’s taste is naturally not bad,” He Shi said, snickering internally, “Since you’re here, help me choose for the old lady as well and see what I should wear that day.”
As she spoke, He Shi called the maid waiting outside, “Bring out the fabrics Wenyu brought a few days ago, and the clothes my daughter made for me, for the second lady to take a look.”
When the maid opened the wardrobe, the fabric stacked inside wasn’t much different from what Zhao Shi held, the only difference being in the colors and the prints.
Moreover, the box full of clothes below were all newly sent by Ye Jiu, plenty for her to wear.
And a whole box of fine leather, which He Shi, being old, didn’t want to flaunt; otherwise, it would have shocked Zhao Shi to no end.
Just this was enough to astound Zhao Shi, “This…”
He Shi felt triumphant, this fool receiving a good item and coming to flaunt it without knowing that Wenyu sent the same materials to everyone in the family, not excluding even those in the main house.
