Chapter 177: Chapter 179: Everyone Has

“Sigh…” Tang Zhinian let out a heavy sigh, running his fingers through his hair. He hasn’t been this worried in a long time. His child, usually so sharp, gave him quite a scare today. He worried about what might happen if she carried around so much money and someone were to rob her. If the money was taken, it could be replaced. But if something happened to his child…

“Dad, Uncle,” Tang Yuxin greeted his father and uncle, both of whom were brooding. She remembered how Tang Zhinian suffered silently when she ran away from the Wei Family after being beaten. He always worried about her being bullied or cheated.

He was supposed to remain stern but when he saw his daughter’s smiling face, all his anger instantly dispelled.

He certainly couldn’t let this happen again. He reached out and ruffled her hair. As she grew older, his concerns about her only grew larger.

“Dad, Uncle, let’s eat.” Tang Yuxin placed two bowls of noodles that she brought from the kitchen on the table, feeling guilty about forgetting her family’s worries.

An unexpected sum of more than two thousand in her possession really wasn’t much compared to her previous life’s monthly salary, but now it was a considerable amount of money. She knew nobody would rob her because she took precautions and didn’t expect anyone would believe that a simple country girl like her would carry around two thousand yuan.

But even if others didn’t know, her family would. She couldn’t hide such things. It surprised her when her family learned about it earlier than she expected and started worrying about her even more.

Upon seeing his niece’s remorseful face, Tang Zhijun couldn’t bring himself to scold her. Instead, he reached out and pinched Tang Yuxin’s face.”

“Next time you behave like this, forget about your father, even your uncle will pinch your face till it’s bruised.”

Tang Yuxin touched her cheeks and sighed,

“Uncle, I know I’m pretty, but don’t tell me you’re jealous and want to disfigure me?”

Tang Zhijun choked on his soup and it sprayed out.

Caught off guard, it sprayed all over Tang Zhinian.

Zhang Xiangcao quickly pulled away Sisi, while Tang Yuxin sneakily hid in her room. Soon after, the cries of Tang Zhijun could be heard from outside.

“Brother, can’t you hold back? I’m a married man, too. What would Sisi think if she saw me like this?”

“Shut up!”

Even though his brother was married and had a child, in Tang Zhinian’s eyes, discipline was still necessary, and he would do so without any hesitation.

Every evening, Sisi preferred to watch TV at her uncle’s house. Tang Zhijun didn’t understand why because they all had the same television set. Maybe it was because Tang Yuxin was there. Sisi’s homework was always supervised by Tang Yuxin, who was a good teacher, and since Sisi was also quite intelligent, she picked things up quickly.

In her past life, Zhang Xiangcao was unable to properly raise her daughter due to the untimely death of Tang Zhijun, but Sisi’s heart, like Zhang Xiangcao’s, was good even though they were poor.

Otherwise, Tang Yuxin would not like her little sister this much.

“Dad, this is yours.”

Tang Yuxin finally took out a box from her bag and placed it in front of Tang Zhinian, and then took out another one and handed it to Tang Zhijun.

“I have one too?” Tang Zhijun opened the box quickly, revealing the shiny watch inside. It was identical with the one from Tang Zhinian’s box, only the color was different. His was gold, a bit more fashionable, while Tang Zhinian’s was silver, more subdued.

Tang Yuxin took out another box from her bag and put it in front of Zhang Xiangcao. “Auntie, there’s one for you as well.”

“Sister, what about mine?”

Sisi, seeing that she was left out, pursed her little lips and her face looked as pitiful as it could be.

“You have something too,” Tang Yuxin pinched Sisi’s little face and went out only to return shortly carrying a big box stuffed with things she bought for Sisi.

“Look, their gifts are small, but yours is big.”

“Thank you, Sister,” Sisi lifted the box, which though large, was not too heavy. She smiled, her eyes squinting, and ran to her room with a box bigger than herself to unwrap her gifts.

Meanwhile, Zhang Xiangcao opened her box to find a set of gold jewelry inside, causing her to jump in surprise. She recognized gold. She had a set of her own, gifted to her by Tang Zhijun when they got married. But she hardly wore it, and the set in her hand was surely heavier than hers.

This set was surely worth at least seven to eight hundred, right?

“No way, I can’t accept this.”

Zhang Xiangcao’s first instinct was to refuse it and she promptly pushed the box back towards Tang Yuxin, as if the box on the table was thorny and pricking her heart constantly.

It wasn’t that she was stingy, but frightened.

How could this expensive item be affordable?

She knew the family’s circumstances. They had just bought a house in the city. While they were slightly better off, having only bought one, her brother-in-law’s family bought two. Money must be tight. It wasn’t easy to earn money nowadays. To buy something so expensive, how could that be right?

“Auntie Zhang, just take it,” Tang Yuxin took back the jewelry and placed it in front of Zhang Xiangcao again.

“Your gift is much cheaper than my dad and uncle’s. I bought it with my prize money, everyone has something.”

What Tang Yuxin was saying was the absolute truth. Zhang Xiangcao’s gift was indeed cheaper, simply in comparison to the two watches.

“Doesn’t it look nice?” Tang Zhijun had no qualms about wearing his new watch immediately. When he saw the jewelry set, his eyes lit up, “Yes, our Yuxin has good taste, much better than mine. The design of the gold jewelry is very exquisite, come on, try it on.”

Zhang Xiangcao was made to feel self-conscious by Tang Zhijun.

Tang Zhinian tousled his daughter’s hair and wore his new watch. Even though his appearance hadn’t changed much, the watch added a touch of sophistication to him.

They had been too busy being upset, they forgot to ask Tang Yuxin about her writing competition.
