Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife

Chapter 1395: Chapter 1396: Going to Buy a Television

Sure, here’s the translation:

Cheng Su suddenly got angry and pushed away her bowl and chopsticks, Mother Qi also looked unhappy.

”I only asked you to invest for your elder sister, who are you angry with? You can help outsiders, why can’t you help your own family?” Mother Qi said coldly.

”Helping them is because Taiguo owes them a life.” Cheng Su replied bluntly, ”But we don’t owe my elder sister anything. And I can say I’ve helped my sister enough already. Signed for her when she had a baby, let her work at the store, paid her a full salary. During her divorce, I helped with that too, and there’s also Xiao Yun, mother-in-law, do you think that there’s still more to help with?”

Mother Qi was stumped and said, ”It’s just an investment, it can also give you dividends!”

”Mother-in-law, first of all, we don’t know if my elder sister will successfully open a shop and run a business. Investment has its requirements, if it were you, mom, would you throw money into a business that clearly won’t make money? Even if you have a lot of money, it shouldn’t be spent like this!” Cheng Su snorted coldly.

”How do you know your elder sister can’t make it work!”

”If she wants to work, she’ll produce results that show me it’s worth investing in, rather than just saying it!” Cheng Su stood up and said, ”Mother-in-law, I’ll just pretend I didn’t hear what you said. You eat, I’m not hungry!”

She returned to her room, Mother Qi glared at the tightly closed door, her face twisted in anger.

Cheng Su was also angry, counting on her fingers, this is only the first day Qi Taiguo left, how will she endure the remaining days?

The next day, when mother-in-law and daughter-in-law met early in the morning, they didn’t speak.

Cheng Su vomited with nausea, ate just a few bites of plain porridge, then grabbed her bag to go out, telling Mother Qi she was going to buy some New Year goods.

”The money is not mine, buy whatever you want!” Mother Qi said sourly.

Cheng Su pretended not to hear her sarcasm and went straight out the door, first arriving at the supply and marketing cooperative.

This time she wanted to buy a TV.

She had the money for the TV for a long time, but never bought it because she was too busy. Either studying or reading books, or working, there was no time to watch TV?

Among all the appliances, probably the TV was the least attractive to her.

But now it’s different, she’s pregnant, and in the future, she might spend more time at home and needs some entertainment.

Moreover, the reason for buying it now was that while Mother Qi was here, Qi Taiguo, the one who usually calmed things down, wasn’t home, and she didn’t want the two of them to sit in awkward silence. Having a TV to watch would make time pass faster.

Besides, her father-in-law and others will arrive in a few days, and spending the New Year in the courtyard wouldn’t be like the countryside, having some entertainment instead of wandering the streets. Buying a TV, the elderly and children would enjoy watching it too.

Now, there should be something like a Spring Festival Gala, gathering together to watch during the New Year is entertainment.

”You are certainly a big customer with us now, you bought quite a few things before and now a TV!” Luh Kai said with a smile.

Cheng Su explained the purpose indifferently.

”No wonder, I heard Xiao Dan say you were pregnant. Didn’t see your mother-in-law before, must be here to take care of you. Congratulations!” Luh Kai said.

”Thank you. What about you? Any news?” Cheng Su asked.

”Thanks to you, just had it checked, one month pregnant!” Luh Kai grinned broadly.

Cheng Su exclaimed, ”So, it’s shared joy, mine is just a month ahead!”

Luh Kai deliberately raised his eyebrows, jokingly said, ”If you fancy it, let’s make them relatives by marriage!”

Cheng Su laughed out loud, ”I don’t even know whether this is a cabbage or a little pig!”

Luh Kai didn’t understand her at first, and Cheng Su explained Qi Taiguo’s saying, which amused and puzzled Luh Kai, but then Luh Kai seriously said, ”What he said makes sense too!”

Both laughed together.
