Chapter 620: Leave It, I’ll Take a Look at It Later
As he spoke, he took out the gifts that he prepared from the bag.
Uncle Zhang saw it and immediately helped to hand it over to Madam Mo and Old Madam.
“Oh my, Mianmian bought us gifts.” Old Madam received the gift happily without looking at it.
Meanwhile, as Madam Mo received the gift, she saw the brand and immediately knew what the gift was.
A hint of unhappiness flashed across her face. She immediately lost interest in the gift and left it aside.
On the other hand.
As Old Madam opened the box and saw the scarf, she was elated and praised her. “Mianmian, you’ve gotten this scarf for me? It’s wonderful. You have such great taste. I love it.”
Old Madam was genuinely happy, and you could tell that she really liked it.
Qiao Mianmian breathed a sigh of relief.
Thank goodness that Old Madam wasn’t concerned about the price.
But when she saw Madam Mo throwing it on the sofa without even opening it, she was affected by her reaction.
She was aware that Madam Mo never liked her.
She knew about it the first time she came to the Mo family.
She told herself that she shouldn’t be affected by it. She should be happy that both Mo Yesi and Old Madam liked her.
Furthermore, she wasn’t living with Madam Mo.
Hence, she shouldn’t be affected by whether Madam Mo liked her.
But she was affected by it, no matter how much she tried.
Madam Mo was Mo Yesi’s mother.
It would be great if Qiao Mianmian could have gotten her approval.
Receiving approval from an older family member was important in a relations.h.i.+p.
Mo Yesi noticed the dejection in her eyes and saw that Qiao Mianmian was looking at the gift that was thrown aside. He then let go of her and picked it up.
He handed the gift over to Madam Mo as she gave her a strange look and said, “Open it, mom. Mianmian put a lot of effort and time to pick it out.”
Madam Mo looked down at the gift in front of her. She bit on her lip and frowned in response.
She didn’t want to receive it.
She replied nonchalantly, “Leave it, I’ll take a look at it later.”
Mo Yesi smiled. He maintained his posture and insisted. “Grandma opened the gift already. You should do it too. Mianmian was really worried that you wouldn’t like her gift. Just open it now and tell her how you feel so that she won’t be worried anymore.”
Madam Mo bit on her lip harder as a hint of anger flashed in her eyes.
“Wenpei.” Old Madam addressed Madam Mo after asking the servant to bring the gift to her room.
She turned and saw that Madam Mo still refused to receive the gift. She frowned and said unhappily, “The gift is right in front of you, why aren’t you receiving it? How long do you want Ah Si to maintain his posture? Just open it, it won’t require much effort.”
Madam Mo wasn’t keen on receiving the gift.
She didn’t want to know what was inside.
She didn’t really care about a scarf that only cost tens of thousands of yuan.
Furthermore, the scarf was given to her by someone she didn’t like.
She had no desire to open the gift.
But since Old Madam had spoken, she didn’t dare to disobey.
It was already a habit of hers to submit to Old Madam’s instructions.
She received and opened the gift unwillingly.
