She said, "I did it with a few friends, just for fun, so I didn't want to go to his company and cause trouble for him."

Another woman said, "This is nothing to add to. Even if you don't work, he has the obligation to support you. Working is just to pass the time. Making money is what men do."

Qiao Xing twitched the corners of her lips, "Auntie is right."

The man asked again, "What do your parents do?"

The corners of Qiao Xing's mouth froze slightly. This was the real question. They all wanted to know what she did at home.

Wang Yu was smiling next to her and seemed to have no intention of speaking for her.

Qiao Xing was silent for two seconds and said truthfully, "My parents are divorced and I don't live with them. My mother works in a factory. As for my father, I don't know what he does."

When they heard the word "part-time job", their eyes had already changed.

There were doubts, questions, and contempt. Qiao Xing could almost imagine what kind of image he had in their minds.

"Are you kidding us?" Some people didn't believe her and thought she said it on purpose, but normal people wouldn't say it on purpose.

Qiao Xing looked at the aunt who spoke. She only knew that she was the third aunt, but there were too many identities like this. She had to add the words in her name before it. Qiao Xing had forgotten her name.

"I'm not joking. What I said is true. How dare I joke with several aunts."

Wang Yu suddenly spoke at this time, "I can prove this. Xingxing is an honest kid and not a joker."

Only then did the aunts believe Qiao Xing's words, and looked at Qiao Xing with different eyes.

"Then I'm even more curious, how did you and Xiao Ce meet?"

Qiao Xing said truthfully, "We met through Grandpa Qin. Grandpa Qin used to live next door to my house in Yucheng. We have known each other since we were children."

She answered the doubts in several people's minds. Although they didn't show it in their hearts, their impression of Qiao Xing had changed.

No matter what circle you are in, once someone whose status is inferior to yours in all aspects suddenly squeezes into your circle and becomes your equal, most people will not feel comfortable.

It's like a strange creature has intruded into their territory, how could they like it?

"Then your life is pretty good," someone said.

Qiao Xing felt uncomfortable being looked at by these eyes. It felt like several parties were looking for bugs in a piece of software, always trying to find something wrong with her.

She could only deal with it bravely, "Yes, I also think I am very lucky."

The aunt suddenly took off a bracelet from her wrist and said with a smile, "Oh, we don't know that Xiao Ce has brought someone back, and we didn't prepare a meeting gift. I'm giving this to you. I hope you won't dislike it."

Qiao Xing waved his hands repeatedly, "This is too valuable, I can't accept it."

The aunt still smiled kindly, took her hand, and patted the bracelet into her palm, "It's not a valuable thing, it's just a bracelet I picked up when I went out. I estimate it's only around [-] yuan, so it's not valuable."

Qiao Xing's expression changed. This was only around [-] yuan, which refreshed her understanding of the word worthless.

In fact, she could not have added the last 30. Qiao Xing might not be under that much pressure, but when she added this sentence, the taste was a little different.

How could someone who really wanted to give a gift raise the price? It was obvious that he was humiliating Qiao Xing because he had a poor family background and had never seen any good things.

Qiao Xing couldn't hear it anymore, but he just hadn't figured out what to say yet.

Qin Ce walked in at some point.

Seeing him, Qiao Xing felt like seeing a savior.

<divcss=tentadv> He came to Qiao Xing, casually picked up the bracelet in her hand, looked at it, and said lightly, "The water is good, but the color and texture are not good. The maximum is 5 yuan."

Qin Ce looked back at the woman who spoke, "Have you been tricked?"

The aunt was stunned for a moment, her face not very good-looking, "No way? I got this from my friend, he is a professional jade seller."

"That means you've been cheated. It's better to keep this bracelet for yourself. It's really hard to give it away."

After that, he returned the bracelet to the aunt. This move made the aunt's face turn blue and white, which was extremely ugly.

The other aunts all saw the joke and stopped trying to embarrass Qiao Xing.

I heard before that Qin Ce didn't even take his father seriously, but now it turned out to be true. They didn't want to get into trouble.

The third aunt said, "Is this Xiaoce? You are such a talented person. I didn't expect you to know jade."

"I know a little bit about it. If any of you aunts are not sure about the quality, you can let me take a look. At least I won't cheat you."

He was still talking about the fact that the aunt was cheated. He didn't say that he was cheated, but he also used it to humiliate Qiao Xing. This time he shot himself in the foot and made the aunt unable to stay any longer.

She stood up and said, "Thank you so much, Xiaoce. This kid, I usually trust him so much, dares to lie to me. I have to go back and trouble him."

The aunt looked at Wang Yu apologetically, "Brother and sister, I'm going to leave now. I'll visit you next time."

Wang Yu quickly stood up, "Why don't you leave after eating?"

"No, no, I still have something to do at home, so I won't eat. Remember to help my old man say hello to my uncle."

"Well, since my sister-in-law has something to do, I won't keep you here. I'll send someone to take the gifts you brought to Dad soon."

The two exchanged a few more polite words, and the aunt left in a hurry. She was still smiling when she left, but her face turned dark when she went out and got in the car.

Seeing this, several other aunts also stood up and left.

They were just here to go through the motions, give gifts and prepare to leave. After all, they don't move around much, otherwise they wouldn't have come a day early.

After the others left, Wang Yu sighed helplessly and said to Qin Ce, "Xiao Ce, you have embarrassed your Aunt Rong so much. She must have a grudge against us."

Qin Ce said, "I'm really sorry. I'm not as kind as my aunt. I would rather embarrass myself than others."

Wang Yu's expression changed. His words were obviously sarcastic as she just watched Qiao Xing being embarrassed and didn't take action.

She explained, "After all, I am a guest and I am giving Xingxing something. Even if the thing is not good, you can't say that."

Wang Yu focused on the bad things and pretended not to know what the aunt was up to. She looked a little aggrieved.

Qiao Xing didn't understand the twists and turns here. Seeing Wang Yu's appearance, she almost felt that what she said made sense.

"It's my fault. I didn't recognize that he was a guest at home. I thought he was someone who came looking for trouble and caused trouble for my aunt."

Wang Yu said: "It's not a trouble. I'm just worried that you've offended her. She's making up your troubles outside. It won't sound good if word spreads."

"She has a mouth, and she can say whatever she wants. It's not like everyone has no opinion, and she can believe whatever others say."

Both of their voices were relatively calm, but they were inexplicably mixed with invisible smoke, and Qiao Xing had the illusion that the two of them would quarrel at any time.
