After Being Reborn and Regaining Her Identity, the True Heiress Is Spoiled in the Seventies
Chapter 317: Becoming a Tool Man
Chapter 317
Su Ying was quite busy today, with several guests in her small courtyard.
It was a good half day before she had time to come over and greet them, "What brings you here?"
"Winter is almost upon us, Zhi Xia wanted to make some clothes, so she thought of coming here."
Zhi Xia realized for the first time that he could tell lies without blushing at all, looking completely serious, as if it were true.
"That's right, I'm here to have clothes made, definitely not because someone dragged me here." Zhi Xia wouldn't let him take the blame and secretly made mischief.
An ZhiAng glanced at her, and became nervous again when he looked at Su Ying.
But Su Ying just turned around and went to get a ruler to take Zhi Xia's measurements, clearly not having heard what she said.
Zhi Xia understood that she was just a prop, and soon made excuses to go out for a walk.
Su Ying was also pretending to stay calm, "Didn't you say you were going back to your team today?"
"That was the original plan, but I suddenly thought of some unfinished business, so I'm going to finish it before I leave." An ZhiAng had his hands behind his back, rubbing the bouquet Zhi Xia had forcibly stuffed into his hands, but was thinking about what kind of excuse he could use to give it to her.
"Oh." Su Ying paid him no more attention and went about her business.
Neither of them mentioned what had happened last night until much later, when Su Ying realized he hadn't left yet.
"I'm sorry about last night."
"Sorry for what? For kissing me?" An ZhiAng asked her.
Su Ying's movements stalled, feeling humiliated, and said no more.
"If you're really sorry, then..." An ZhiAng licked his lips relishingly, "Then let me kiss you back."
"An ZhiAng..."
Su Ying turned around, but bumped into his arms because of the close distance.
An ZhiAng took the opportunity to lower his head and pin her against the edge of the table with one hand. This time, he set the pace.
By the time Zhi Xia had finished her walk and came back, she found that the courtyard door was closed and even locked from the inside, she couldn't push it open.
She couldn't see anything through the crack in the door, and no one opened it for her after waiting for a long time.
She was very helpless, so she just left first.
In the afternoon, she took the kids out for a walk, and when she came back it was already evening.
Sister Zhang had locked the door and was not at home, so Zhi Xia went to the old lady to get the key and found Fourth Brother and Su Ying there, as well as An JingZhi and his wife and son, the old gentleman and old lady were smiling from ear to ear.
Zhi Xia also smiled and poked An ZhiAng in the shoulder.
He looked back at her and winked, and Zhi Xia secretly gave him a thumbs up.
However, Zhi Xia was still a little confused. Even if the two had settled their marriage, it didn't warrant such a grand celebration, did it?
Sister Zhang was also called over to help with the cooking, and it was a hot and busy scene in the kitchen with Mrs. Zhou.
Old Lady and Zhou Nan were discussing arrangements for the wedding, while asking Su Ying for her opinion.
Su Ying just kept her head down and said she'd listen to whatever grandma said.
In the yard, Liu Ling walked over, "Little sister, it's grandpa and grandma's intention to have Fourth Brother's wedding here, I guess this house will be left to Fourth Brother in the future."
She couldn't help but overthink it a bit, maybe because of the previous matter of dividing up the family property.
Time froze for a few seconds before Zhi Xia spoke, "Then according to Sister-in-law's thinking, the wedding you and Big Brother had at dad and mom's place means dad and mom's house should be left to you two, right? Not to mention Second Brother's house was allocated by the school, and Third Brother doesn't have one yet."
Liu Ling was taken aback, seemingly not expecting her to speak so directly, after all they had always had a very good relationship.
However, it was true that she and Fourth Brother were twins, and the two siblings were closer than anyone else.
Fourth Brother was the baby of the family whom everyone doted on, and the daughter-in-law was highly valued by Grandpa and Grandma, bringing a huge dowry from the entire Su family, and she could also earn money herself.
With her arrival, she and Second Brother's wife would probably have to compromise, which was what worried her most.
It wasn't until dinner time that Zhi Xia realized that she had only thought the marriage was settled, but unexpectedly, he had coaxed Su Ying into getting the marriage certificate done.
This speed startled her.
After dinner, An ZhiAng ran off to the Su house with Su Ying.
Old Lady sighed at the sight and then said, "Don't delay the wedding, hurry up and get it done, don't let lives be messed up before the wedding."
Seeing his son's impatience, Zhou Nan was also somewhat embarrassed, "Why don't we do it in the next few days, it's tight but still enough. I just don't know if Old Master Su has any other requirements."
Wen Qing wanted to stay with Chenye to sleep since they were in the same grade.
Liu Ling had said no to him for a long time before An JingZhi spoke up to let him stay.
When Zhi Xia returned home, she sorted out her bankbook.
She had been saving An ZhiAng's money separately, from just five or six yuan per month when he first joined the army, to seventy or eighty yuan per month now that he was in the special forces, accumulating over 4,600 yuan over the years.
But when she tried to give it to An ZhiAng, he stubbornly refused, leaving Zhi Xia at a complete loss.
She couldn't just give it to Su Ying, for fear that she would overthink.
After thinking it over, she could only keep the money for now. Anyway, Fourth Brother was getting married, she could make it up to him somewhere else.
Su Ying was also knowledgeable about valuables. Zhi Xia planned to give her a set of pearl jewelry as a wedding present for her and Fourth Brother.
She still had a lot of top-grade pearls left in her space, all plump and round, and quite large too. As for those less spherical or flawed ones, she had made them into pearl powder to apply on her face.
Come to think of it, it was quite an extravagant thing to do.
Zhi Xia selected them all over again, picking out two packs of various sizes, and gave them to a major pearling family to help find a designer to process them.
