On the twenty-ninth day of the lunar year, Wen Wan had just gotten up when she heard a knock on the door.

I thought Wen Ya couldn't stand the torture anymore and came here to cause trouble for her.

Unexpectedly, when I opened the door, I saw brother and sister Xie Changlin and Xie Yuting.

Wen Wan quickly invited people in, "Why are you here? Did something happen?"

"No," Xie Yuting said, "Isn't the New Year coming soon? My third brother and I knew you wouldn't be returning to the village, so we came to see you and brought you some New Year's goods."

Wen Wan was speechless when talking about New Year's goods. Xie Changlin had come to deliver them half a month ago, including bacon, salted fish, rice cakes, sausages, and various mountain products and dried vegetables.

Wen Wan couldn’t finish it all by herself, so she gave a lot to the neighbors. Now she’s sending more. What’s the purpose?

The Xie family became rich, but still couldn't make ends meet.

You can tell what she is thinking by looking at her expression. Xie Changlin explained, "These are all dishes that my family will cook during the Chinese New Year. I didn't bring much."

Wen Wan received it and laughed helplessly, "This is enough to set up a New Year's Eve dinner, and you still have the nerve to tell me that you didn't bring much?"

Xie Yuting said: "We brought the food here so that we can have a New Year's Eve dinner in advance."

"..." Wen Wan was a little dumbfounded by the actions of this brother and sister.

“Second sister-in-law, now that my second brother is not here and you are not going back to the village, you will be alone during the New Year.

We couldn't come to spend your 30th day with you, so we came here early to be with you."

Xie Yuting said a little embarrassedly: "I know you are too lazy to cook too many dishes, so I made them at home and brought them here."

Wen Wan was a little unconvinced, "You did it?"

"My eldest brother and second brother made it together, and sent it to you when they were done." Xie Yuting stuck out her tongue and said, "I was scolded by my parents and eldest sister-in-law.

If it wasn't for my elder brother stopping us, we would have fought."

Wen Wan imagined the character of those three people and felt her scalp tingling.

No matter how she said it, Wen Wan was still quite touched. Neither in her previous life nor in this life had she ever received love from her family.

I didn't expect that something I had never gotten before would be obtained from these people who have no blood relationship with me.

She remembered that when she first married into the Xie family, Xie Changshan was still a coward who couldn't even fart even if he was beaten with three sticks. But now he is willing to go against the three people in the family who used to oppress him just to send her New Year's gifts.

In such a cold day, Xie Changlin and Xie Yuting came specially to spend the New Year with her.

Wen Wan thought this was enough, but she didn't expect there was another surprise waiting for her.

Xie Yuting took out a large stack of things wrapped in brown paper and said, "You are going to the provincial capital to attend university. My third brother and I don't have anything good to give you, so we bought you a piece of clothing. See if you like it."

Before opening it, Wen Wan was a little worried about the aesthetic standards of the department store in town. After opening it, she found that these were clearly things that could only be bought in the provincial capital.

A camel-colored wool coat, made of particularly solid material, better than the ones that will cost tens of thousands of dollars in the future.

It’s a very common style, but it’s the kind that will never go out of style no matter what year you wear it.

"This dress doesn't look cheap, you guys..."

Halfway through her words, Wen Wan immediately realized her problem.

In the past, the phrase "don't spoil the fun" was often seen on the Internet. It means that someone bought you something with great care, and the expensive thing means that they are willing to spend money on it and think it is worth it.

In order to make her happy and get her praise.

She said this out of pity for them spending money, but to them it sounded like an accusation.

This behavior is like pouring a bucket of cold water on the other person's head, which is really disappointing.

Wen Wan immediately stopped talking, stood up, took off her jacket and put it on, then turned around and looked at herself carefully in front of the mirror.

He said sincerely, "It fits me well and looks good. I like it very much. Thank you."

The two people who had thought they would be scolded and despised immediately showed expressions of relief on their faces after hearing these words.

Xie Yuting looked at her third brother with a proud look on her face, "I told you that my second sister-in-law would like it! You still don't believe it."

"Okay, you are the best, I admit defeat to you," Xie Changlin said with a smile and clasped his fists.

"You're smart," Xie Yuting said proudly, and then she started to complain to Wen Wan, "Second sister-in-law, you don't know that my third brother has no aesthetic sense and he also likes to be the boss.

You didn't listen to me and insisted on buying you a cotton dress with a red background and floral patterns, saying that it was pretty. You made me cry."

"So you chose this dress?" Wen Wan raised her eyebrows.

"Yeah!" the little girl responded quite proudly.

"You have good vision." Wen Wan glanced at Xie Changlin, "Much better than your third brother."

The three of them chatted and laughed while they had the meal. In the spirit of "not reciprocating", Wen Wan took the two siblings to the department store to pick out clothes for each of them.

I also bought a set for Xie Changshan and Xiao Guoqing to take back.

When seeing them off, Wen Wan gave each of them a big red envelope to make up for the money they spent on buying clothes.

If Wen Wan guessed correctly, the money they used to buy clothes should have been the wages she gave them. The two little guys were reluctant to buy even a pair of shoes for themselves, but used all the money to buy her a coat.

Afraid that she would be too picky and not like it, I went to the provincial capital to buy it.

They were not at all like her two children in her previous life, who only knew how to ask her for things. They would occasionally give her gifts on holidays and birthdays.

But the things I gave them were all what they liked. When they were young, they were snacks and then ended up in their stomachs. As they grew up, they became more diverse.

Game consoles, mobile phones, computers...

Even if they give it away and then take it back, they will find ways to get it back several times the amount after giving it away.

Or maybe it's just giving gifts with a purpose.

Now it seems that sometimes, just because you are nice to someone, it is not necessarily the case that that person will be nice to you.

It mainly depends on the person's character. Some people will never be satisfied no matter how much you treat them with all your heart, while some people will remember even the slightest kindness and repay you with a thousandfold gratitude.

Wen Ya belongs to the former category. Relying on their old acquaintance with Lu Antai, she is afraid of being involved in Lu Antai's affairs, so she goes to him to borrow money again and again.

It's gotten to the point where they're treated like ATMs.

Even for prominent people, life is not easy these days. No one can stand being stripped of their wealth layer by layer.

If you can't stand it, there will be a fight back.

What's more, Wen Ya is a person who does things without thinking, so killing her is just a matter of moving a finger.
