Rebirth in the 90s: Her Counterattack and Redemption

Chapter 1303: Chapter 777

The slender fair hand swiped across the jewelry box, and Nu’an pointed at a red jade bracelet, nodding: “Mom, this bracelet’s quality is really nice.”

Wen Xin quickly took it out and helped Nu’an put it on, inspecting it happily: “Worn on Ye’er’s wrist, the bracelet looks even prettier, I can’t achieve this effect.”

“My necklace looks nice.” Nu’an pointed at a platinum necklace embedded with sparkling diamonds.

“It looks better on Ye’er’s neck, I can’t achieve this effect.”

“This necklace also looks nice.”

A water-green jade necklace was draped around Nu’an’s neck.

“This ring looks nice.”

…

“These earrings look nice.”

“They look better on Ye’er’s ears than on mine.” Wen Xin said, measuring a pair of jade-embedded earrings against Nu’an’s ears, “Having pierced ears doesn’t hurt, girls should have pierced ears.”

“Mom…” Nu’an sighed, “You can come up with such reasons, I’m really impressed, but, looking closely, do these things look good on me?”

“They look good, of course they do, but…” Wen Xin pinched Nu’an’s soft cheeks, “It’s better to wear them separately, like this, it’s a bit odd.”

“It’s not just a bit odd, it’s like selling jewelry at a night market, isn’t it?” Nu’an said, speechless, “You know very well that, given my profession, I can’t wear these things.”

Forget it, to be honest with you, the reason I’m asking for these is to pick one for my future sister-in-law, I plan to go to Island City in the afternoon, and then fly directly back to Changsha.

Since I left last time, I haven’t seen Lianlian in months, I’ve heard she’s doing much better now, and the doctor suggested that familiar people should visit her more often, chat with her.

Her issue, according to Traditional Chinese Medicine, is caused by qi blockage in the heart, as long as her knot is untied, she’ll be fine.”

“Poor child, sigh…” Wen Xin’s smile gradually faded, and her eyes filled with sympathy, “Qiao Aimin visited her several times, but she just wouldn’t engage.”

Not long ago, Old Master Qiao and Old Madam Qiao visited our house once, especially asking us to take good care of Lianlian, presumably they met resistance.

Ye’er visiting her is good, she just kept some things bottled up in her heart for too long, couldn’t handle it all at once, that’s why she closed herself off, once she figures it out, it’ll be fine.”

“She’s mentally fine, just doesn’t feel like talking, Qingqing and Ying Nuo’s family all live there, her heart will warm up eventually.” Nu’an sighed lightly, “She was really frightened, in that situation, anyone who encountered it would likely have some lingering effects afterwards.”

“Ye’er, give this to Lianlian.” Wen Xin took out a pendant and handed it to Nu’an, “This Maitreya Buddha has been consecrated, hopefully, it can restore her smile.”

“When did Mom start believing in this?” Nu’an laughed as she took it, “I remember Mom used to be very skeptical about these things.”

“It’s not that I don’t believe, just…” Wen Xin smiled awkwardly, “It’s actually concern for others criticizing your dad, less hassle is better.”

“Actually, this matter should be viewed in this way, people live in the world, there are always things they can’t do or accomplish in the short term, so this approach is actually a form of spiritual support, I understand it.” Nu’an cheerfully consoled her mom.

Indeed, as the Governor’s Wife, every word and action is scrutinized by others, some things truly have to be against one’s wishes.

It’s not like wearing a consecrated Buddha actually brings good luck, but for these mysterious things, Nu’an holds a respectful attitude.

Her own return is indeed an inexplicable matter, isn’t it?

Just as the mother and daughter finished tidying up, Luo Zhenggang also returned home. Upon entering, he first touched his daughter’s head: “Girls, don’t push yourselves too hard, visit home when you can, your mom and grandpa both miss you dearly, outsider’s companionship can never replace you and Feng’er.”

“Dad, I know, but don’t you miss me?” Nu’an tilted her head, staring at her dad, “Seriously, Dad never misses me and my brother?”

“I… of course… ahem… have you packed everything?” That “miss” word ultimately didn’t come out of his mouth, Luo Zhenggang started evading.

“Yeah, all packed. I did pillage some of Mom’s valuable jewelry, Dad, are you heartbroken?”

“What’s your mom’s is yours, there’s no heartache in giving stuff to my daughter.” Luo Zhenggang glared at his daughter, but soon pulled Wen Xin aside, after a while, Wen Xin rolled her eyes at him playfully, ignoring him.
