Chapter 8: Don’t take advantage of it!(1/2)

The next day, Zhao Xinghui still didn't come for dinner.

As soon as Zhao Dui sat down in the front hall, he saw Jin Yun walking in slowly, supporting Zhao Li.

"Mom, why did you come with her?"

"I slept with my mother last night."

Before Zhao Li could answer, Jin Yun took the lead.

She knew that Zhao Dui didn't like her.

She looked at him with a smile, just to deliberately anger him.

"What's there to be proud of!"

Zhao Dui glanced at her, stood up and wanted to leave.

If he didn't come back, he didn't want to stay in the front room and dine with this woman.

However, he had just passed Jin Yun's side and had not yet had time to step out of the threshold.

Her voice came slowly from behind.

"Mom, this jade bracelet is so beautiful, can you give it to me?"

"If you like it, then give it to..."

"no!"

Before Zhao Li could finish her words, she was interrupted by Zhao Dui.

He suddenly turned around and warned Jin Yun.

"This is my birthday gift to my mother, don't try to take advantage of it!"

"But mother said she gave it to me!"

Jin Yun raised his chin and met Zhao Dui's eyes.

Zhao Dui rushed forward angrily: "Mom, I'm embarrassed to refuse you. Can you show some respect for yourself?"

"Lao Wu, why are you talking to your sister?"

Mrs. Zhao Li frowned and looked at Zhao Dui displeased.

Zhao Dui became even more angry when she looked at him like this.

"She is not my sister. I don't have such a shameless sister!"

"Lao Wu!"

Mrs. Zhao Li drank and turned to look at Jin Yun.

"Xiao Liu, don't argue with Lao Wu. He has such a bad temper, but he is kind. This jade bracelet is Lao Wu's heart, and I won't give it to you. If you like it, you can finish it later.

Rice, let your fifth brother take you to a jade shop and choose what you like!"

"Okay, thank you, mother!" Jin Yun rolled his eyes and nodded happily: "Fifth brother, I want to go to the store where you picked out the jade bracelet for mother."

"snort!"

Zhao Dui snorted coldly, obviously still angry.

After the three of them finished their breakfast, Zhao Li urged Zhao Dui to take Jin Yun out.

After a while, the general's carriage stopped at a jade shop.

Jinyun was not in a hurry to get off the car.

She opened the carriage curtain and looked outside.

"Fifth brother, is this the store where you bought the jade bracelet for your mother?"

"Um!"

Zhao Dui made a perfunctory sound and quickly got out of the carriage.

Jinyun followed him into the jade shop.

"Hey, the Fifth Young Master is here!"

As soon as the two of them entered the door, a servant came to greet them.

The boy looked at Zhao Dui, then turned to Jin Yun.

Although Jin Yun broke Wang Lan's evil spell, his figure was much thinner than when he left.

But it will take a full month to return to the original figure and appearance.

Today, she is still an ordinary-looking fat person.

The waiters in jade shops are all there to watch people order dishes.

With just one glance, he recognized that Jin Yun was not Zhao Xinghui, let alone Zhao Dui's lover.

Then he withdrew his gaze from her.

"Is the Fifth Young Master coming here this time to help Madam choose jewelry?"

"Help her choose." Zhao Dui pointed to Jin Yun beside him: "Just greet her. After you have chosen, ask me to pay."

Zhao Dui's words made the young man stunned.

He thought just now that this woman was a maid from the General's Mansion, but he didn't expect that he had misjudged her!

But it's no wonder that he is the fifth son of Zhao.

Just as the boy was thinking about it, Jin Yun had already passed by him.

The boy quickly followed up and patiently introduced the jade jewelry in the store.

Jin Yun is not interested in these things.

Her eyes quickly scanned the jewelry one by one, and her brows knitted together slightly.

The jade bracelet given to Zhao Li was bought by Zhao Dui from this store.

But except for that jade bracelet, there is nothing wrong with the other jade jewelry here.

"Is this the only jewelry you have in your store?"

"Miss, are you not satisfied with any of this?"

The boy's eyes widened and he was a little surprised.

This seemingly ordinary woman has such high standards!

The boy was surprised, but he soon recovered and said quickly: "There is indeed a hosta that was just delivered today. But the young lady has such high standards, she probably doesn't like that hosta."

"Oh, why do you look down on it?"

Jin Yun turned to look at the boy, becoming interested in what he said.

The boy came close to Jin Yun and lowered his voice: "The girl belongs to the Fifth Young Master, so I won't hide it from the girl. That hosta was used by someone else."

Jin Yun understood clearly that the hosta the boy was talking about was a second-hand item.

In the past, in modern times, there were also second-hand stores that specialized in collecting second-hand goods in good condition for sale.

It's just that the General's Mansion is not short of money, and Zhao Dui is Zhao Li's biological son.

There is no reason to buy a second-hand item and give it to Mrs. Zhao Li as a birthday gift.

Thinking about it, Jin Yun turned to look at Zhao Dui, his eyes a little more probing.

Zhao Dui noticed her gaze and frowned.

"What do you think I'm doing? You've been choosing for so long, have you finished it?"

"If you don't like it, let's go!"

"No!" Zhao Dui stood up quickly and grabbed her wrist: "Mom told me that I want to pick out a piece of jewelry for you. Just go back empty-handed. Do you want to see me get scolded?"

"Okay, let's take this one!"

Jin Yun pointed at random and selected a hosta.

The boy quickly handed her the hosta, accepted the money, and watched the two of them leave.

Watching the two people's backs disappear from sight, the boy shook his head.

"I'm just telling you, why does the Fifth Young Master have such strong tastes? It turns out she was the daughter-in-law chosen by the family!"

"Fifth brother, the jade bracelet on my mother's hand was chosen by someone else for you, right?"

As soon as Jin Yun got on the carriage, he asked straight to the point.

Zhao Dui didn't even look at her: "None of your business!"

"I'm just curious, who has such a good eye?"

"She has always had good taste, which you cannot envy."

Zhao Dui raised the corner of his mouth slightly, feeling very proud.
