After being read, the plot collapsed and the protagonist went crazy!

"I...I'm good-looking?" Xia Chen's answer was still full of unconfidence.

Xia Jinxiu kept nodding, then looked at her second brother, "Second brother, don't you say something?"

Xia Jinjun smiled and shook his head. He wanted to say a lot at the moment, but he was afraid that his wife and daughter would think that he only cared about his wife's skin.

[My father has been stupid for a long time? Just say that my mother is pretty, right? How much better than Bai Huiru? Dad, please be more careful. When my mother walks on the street like this, she turns heads so much! Alas, man! 】

Xia Jinjun cleared his throat. Although he didn't understand some of the little girl's words, what's the point of turning heads?

However, he knew that his little girl was right.

"Your second sister-in-law is not ugly to begin with. She works hard day and night for this family and has no chance to dress up. No matter what she looks like, I think she looks good."

Xia Chen blushed, who could resist such sweet words.

[Dad, you are right, let me say a few more words. 】

Xia Jinxiu on the side also smiled narrowly.

"Daughter-in-law, I've said it a long time ago. If you make money by yourself, you should spend some on yourself. It's great like this."

Xia Chen wanted to see what she looked like. When she turned around, she found that her youngest daughter had taken the family's only bronze mirror out of Xia Jinxiu's house and stood opposite her mother.

Xia Jinxiu was not angry, and urged Xia Chen, "Second sister-in-law, take a look. Don't tell me, I know that girl's painting is really good."

She was embarrassed to say that it was even better than her, but the makeup was not in line with the current fashion, but it was something she had never seen before, and it was probably the whims of a child.

All in all, it looks great.

Xia Chen looked at herself in the bronze mirror. Although it was a little blurry, she could still make out some outlines.

Xia Jinjun also moved the oil lamp over so that she could see more clearly.

Xia Chen looked at her face and couldn't help but touch it, "Is this...Is it me? I don't even dare to recognize it."

"It's you, otherwise who else could it be!" Xia Jinxiu couldn't help but nod, "Second sister-in-law, you see, a woman has to dress up. I didn't talk about it if I didn't have any conditions before. Now you make your own money, so what's the point? I can’t bear to spend it.”

[Although mom makes money herself, except for grandma, the rest is in dad’s hands. Mom has to take care of the money! Otherwise, it wouldn’t be all that cheap! 】

Xia Jinjun was panicked when he heard this. He did manage his money, but he didn't spend it recklessly. "How about... you should take care of the money you earn. I'm busy studying and can't spare the time."

"I can't!" Xia Chen has never been confident in doing things. No matter what she does, she always shrinks because she doubts herself.

[Mom, you can do it. You must take care of the money you earn, so that dad won’t dare to show off his hair in front of you and manipulate him properly. 】

Xia Jinxiu really didn't have double standards in this regard. Of course, she recognized Xia Chen's change of attitude because she was different, and she was too lazy to care about her brother and sister-in-law's affairs.

"Shall... try? If I can't manage it well, you have to do it." Xia Chen said.

"It's not difficult. You are not illiterate. If you write down your income and expenditure, you will always be right."

[Does my mother still know how to read? What's the situation? She can do embroidery and is literate. What is my mother's background? 】

Xia Zhizhi was stunned.

"I only know them sporadically, so I can't compare with you. I don't even remember how I came to know this word." Xia Chen had never thought much about her life experience before, especially because her adoptive parents had passed away long ago. There is no way to ask.

"Second sister-in-law, I've noticed that the more I see you, the more compatible you are with my second brother. There are not many literate women in the countryside. Doesn't your identity have any background?" Xia Jinxiu asked deliberately.

Xia Jinjun was also thinking deeply. This was not the first time that her daughter had mentioned it, and now her younger sister also said the same thing.

He looked at his wife and said, "Think about it carefully, do you really not remember anything about the past?"

Mrs. Xia Chen shook her head, "I heard that when I came to my parents' house, I was just as old as Cicada. My clothes were in tatters. How could I be from a good family?"

"But how can a family with no money make you literate? My mother loves me so much that she is not willing to send me to study. Of course, there is no place to study. There is no place for a girl to study!" Xia Jinxiu said.

Xia Jinjun took a deep breath and said, "That's not bad. Could it be that... your biological father is a teacher? Or maybe he is a scholar and his family is poor. This can explain it."

Xia Zhi wanted to help, but there was no mention of her mother's life experience in the novel. After all, she was just cannon fodder.

Xia Jinxiu sighed, "Oh, I was thinking that if the second sister-in-law were the daughter of a wealthy family, we would be able to benefit from it."

Xia Chen laughed first. Now she is really not afraid of this sister-in-law. After getting along with her, she found that she is actually quite good. "Jinxiu, you look up to me and give me the daughter of a rich family. I am like this." , Mom, it’s pretty much the same.”

"Second sister-in-law, you are no longer a mother-in-law."

She pointed at Mrs. Xia Chen in the bronze mirror, "Second sister-in-law, you're so pretty. I'll do this in the future. I know, I haven't asked you yet, from whom did you learn this makeup?"

Xia Zhi looked at Xia Jinxiu, smiled first, and then pointed at her.

[I don’t know if you would believe me if I said I learned it from you? 】

"I guess that's it. We are all a bunch of men in our family. Otherwise, who else would you learn from? But your little girl has some talent. She is really clever."

Xia Zhi was happy to get through, but her identity couldn't be revealed.

Then you shouldn't treat her like a monster and burn her to death!

There was chattering in the room, and Mrs. Xia thought something was wrong, so she coughed and came over to take a look.

Xia Chen was very frightened, thinking that she would be scolded this time.

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Xia was also stunned for a moment, probably not recognizing him at first sight.

"Mom...I...I'm going to change it right now."

Old Mrs. Xia frowned slightly, "What are you doing here? Isn't this pretty?"

Xia Chen was stunned, "Mother...I..."

"What are you doing?" Old Mrs. Xia now also feels that it is difficult to find a wife here even with a lantern. How can she be willing to let her son go out to find someone else? Another person can't make money for the family, and he is not as filial as Xia Chen. .

"It's normal to dress up when you have money. If you dress in rags all day long, others will think that our old Xia family has treated you badly. Do you still want the fourth and fifth sons to find a wife? "

Old Mrs. Xia thought that she got her third daughter-in-law because she was generous to her daughter-in-law. She couldn't ruin her reputation.

[Grandma, you are truly the best mother-in-law in the world. Of course, you are also the best grandma. You take good care of my mother. Yes, my mother is definitely more filial than anyone else. 】

Old Mrs. Xia curled her lips and said, "By the way, Cicada will take care of her. The little girl will have to look pretty. I will pay for the dress!"
