Now, Tang Zhijing no longer dared to ask Ye Fangfei for help in buying the liberation shoes. Yesterday, she hadn't mentioned that Ye Fangfei had refused to help; she was still considering bringing it up again today. However, she had taken in what Ye Fangfei had just said and realized that it made sense—how could there be so many defective products at the goods building?
Since Ye Fangfei couldn't help, Tang Zhijing needed to think about how to explain this to her three troublesome sisters-in-law. After all, she had confidently assured them that the third sister-in-law would definitely be able to get the liberation shoes. Now that Ye Fangfei wasn't agreeing, what could she do? She needed to come up with a way to smooth things over.
Thinking about her three difficult sisters-in-law at home made Tang Zhijing feel uneasy. But now was not the time for such thoughts. She remembered what her mother had said: the third sister-in-law had brought back fabric for all of them this time. On the day of their return, her parents had already received theirs from the eldest and second sisters-in-law. Her mother mentioned that the third sister-in-law had also brought some, but perhaps she was upset that day and hadn’t given it to her.
That’s why she kept trying to get close to Ye Fangfei, hoping that Ye would remember the fabric she was supposed to give her but hadn’t yet. The third sister-in-law was right; there weren’t many defective products at the goods building. But isn’t your mother working at a textile factory? Shouldn’t there be quite a few defective fabrics there? Tang Zhijing tried to steer the conversation towards fabric.
Yes, there are indeed quite a few defective fabrics at her factory, Ye Fangfei nodded in agreement.
I heard you brought back fabric for your parents and for the eldest and second sisters-in-law? Is it from your mother's factory? Tang Zhijing asked again.
Yes, my mother knew I was returning home and specifically asked me to bring it back, Ye Fangfei replied.
As soon as Tang Zhijing mentioned fabric, Ye Fangfei realized that Tang Zhijing was aware of the fabric she had brought for her. As for who told her, who else could it be but Old Lady Tang? After all, Old Lady Tang still cared about her daughter; she was worried about not being able to buy liberation shoes. If her daughter could bring back the fabric sent by Ye Fangfei, it would save face for her. Moreover, it would show that the couple of the third branch had a good relationship with their eldest sister.
This also meant a roundabout way of showing sincerity.
Ye Fangfei noticed it, but she had no intention of taking the initiative to offer anything. Tang Zhijing saw that Ye Fangfei was completely ignoring the hint, and she felt anxious, fearing that Ye Fangfei was genuinely upset with her and would refuse to give her the fabric.
"Sister-in-law, I heard from Mother that you brought me a piece of fabric too, just like what you gave to Eldest Sister and Second Sister," Tang Zhijing hesitated for a long time before finally letting her desire for the fabric take precedence.
Tang Zhijing asked directly, and if Ye Fangfei pretended not to understand, that would be it.
Ye Fangfei feigned a sudden realization, tapping her forehead and smiling as she said, "I almost forgot to mention it! Since you brought it up, I'll get it for you right now."
With that, Ye Fangfei went back into the house.
Tang Zhicheng had been paying close attention to what was happening over there. Seeing Ye Fangfei return to the house, he quickly found an excuse to follow her in.
"Wife, what's wrong? Did Eldest Sister say something again?" Tang Zhicheng asked with concern.
"It's nothing, I just forgot to give Eldest Sister the fabric yesterday," Ye Fangfei replied as she opened the wardrobe and took out the fabric.
"Well then, if they say anything you don't want to hear, don't hold back—just retort directly. If you don't want to tell me, that's fine too; just don't keep it bottled up inside," Tang Zhicheng advised uneasily.
Ye Fangfei nodded sweetly in response.
It must be said that Ye Fangfei's willingness to engage with the Tang family was entirely because of Tang Zhicheng. He treated her so well, always keeping her in his thoughts.
