The Blessed Beauty Returns with a Dimension

"I'm sure, I just want to be friends with you."

Wu Fei held Jiang Xiaoxiao's hand, genuinely sincere.

Jiang Xiaoxiao was truly helpless.

This kid was quite the handful.

"Miss Wu, what kind of friend do you want to be with me anyway? I have to go back and help my mom with work. If you're really my friend, are you going to help me with my mom's chores too?"

This was deliberately making things difficult for Wu Fei.

It was obvious that this young lady usually did nothing at home.

She wanted her to understand the hardships of the real world.

And to know that being friends with someone as ordinary as her didn't bring any benefits; she couldn't spend all day eating, drinking, and having fun with her.

Wu Fei laughed smugly, "Don't underestimate me. Even though our families are different, my parents don't spoil us."

"Your parents don't spoil you? What does that even mean? They've spoiled you into this kind of temper. If my parents saw your behavior at the hospital, I would have been slapped right away."

Jiang Xiaoxiao thought about it and was still indignant.

Being misunderstood doesn't mean having no feelings or thoughts, she's no fool.

Wu Fei said awkwardly, "I've already apologized, you can't hold grudges forever, can you? Bringing up old issues? So petty!"

Jiang Xiaoxiao shook her head, this is what they call hard to change nature.

Wu Fei also realized that her words might have been wrong, pouting.

"Jiang Xiaoxiao, let's just be friends and forget about the past, as if nothing ever happened. No one should hold onto old things and not let go. I know I have a bad temper and I'm a bit spoiled.

But I'm genuinely sincere in wanting to be your friend. You can't always be so petty. I see you're good to others, why not be a bit more lenient with me?"

Jiang Xiaoxiao laughed mischievously, "There you go, revealing your true colors with just a few words, always expecting others to give way to you. We're friends, not in a superior-subordinate relationship, why should I let you have your way? Your other friends might always indulge you, and that's exactly what spoiled you."

Alright, alright! Treat others fairly and justly, respect them, and they'll do the same for you."

Jiang Xiaoxiao also understood that for Wu Fei, behaving like this with her was already a big concession.

However, she still didn't understand why Wu Fei was so eager to be friends with her.

Being friends is fine, if Wu Fei respects her, and they get along peacefully, Jiang Xiaoxiao wouldn't mind having another friend.

But if Wu Fei wanted to play the spoiled young lady and seek attention here, then she was looking in the wrong place.

The two entered Jiang Xiaoxiao's family courtyard.

"Mom, why are you treating me like this? Don't think I don't know that you and Dad prepared a house, fully furnished, for someone else. It cost you eight or nine thousand. Why is it so different when it comes to me?

Am I your biological daughter? Why are you so good to Jiang Xiaoxiao but treat me like this, giving me such little as a dowry when you know I'm marrying into the Song family. What will my in-laws think of me?"

Fang Xiaohui's voice made Jiang Xiaoxiao stop.

Wu Fei also paused, who was that?

A sister of Jiang Xiaoxiao's?

"Child, the dowry your parents prepared for you is certainly respectable. You know how much dowry is usually given these days. Your parents spent at least 1,000 on your dowry.

Some of that money even came from Xiaoxiao. How could you say we don't see you as our own? We prepared so much for you because you are our biological daughter.

When your elder sisters got married, your parents didn't prepare any dowry at all. At most, a few quilts. Your eldest sister didn't get a single penny, but we've prepared so much for you. What more do you want us to do?"

Fan Xiuying was furious, feeling as if this daughter was here to collect debts, with no understanding of their feelings.

Nor did she respect her parents' capabilities.

"Mom, don't tell me all that. My elder sisters didn't have the good times as us. But what's with Jiang Xiaoxiao? Why did you spend so much, eight or nine thousand, on her wedding, preparing a house and everything? How come for me, it's only 1,000?

You're being unfair, and the problem is Jiang Xiaoxiao is not your biological daughter. What you did for her hurts my feelings, haven't you thought about that? Will you not need me when you're old?"

Fang Xiaohui was furious.

Her words were as harsh as could be.

Fan Xiuying was livid, "Let me tell you, Jiang Xiaoxiao is our daughter, even if she's not mine by birth, she's our own daughter. The eight or nine thousand wasn't our money. It was from the money Jiang Xiaoxiao earned at the farm from ginseng everyone shared.

Jiang Xiaoxiao gave your father and me 10,000 for our retirement, and also gave some to her siblings. If we spend the money she gave us on her, what's wrong with that? I tell you, the dowry money you're using now is also Xiaoxiao's. Do you still have the face to argue with me?

If you want to compete with Xiaoxiao, just for what you said today, I tell you, your father and I never expected anything from you. You call us affectionately when you need us, but when you don't, you don't show up for months.

If you haven't treated us as your real parents, why should we treat you as our real child? People respond in kind, with genuine hearts to genuine hearts. How can you expect others to treat you sincerely when you don't treat them sincerely?

If you think this dowry embarrasses you, fine, don't take it. You never really considered yourself a Jiang anyway, you're still known as Fang, right? You keep saying you're from the Fang family, opening and closing your mouth, for your future, we never said anything, as your parents.

We've done everything we could for you, we're just ordinary workers, not rich or powerful families, we can't give you those riches, what belongs to Xiaoxiao is hers.

We're not biased, it's because Xiaoxiao treats us as her real parents. She cares wholeheartedly for us, always thinking about her brother and sister, unlike you.

You always claim we're your real parents, thinking we're biased. But what about you, have you ever done anything for us? Other than asking us for money all the time, throwing tantrums.

What have you done that a real daughter should do? When your father and I were sick, did you ever come to see us, or ever cared for us, even once brought us a glass of water?"

"Mom, you and dad were sick? When did that happen?"

Jiang Xiaoxiao interjected, her mother was hospitalized for an illness this year in her past life.

The problem is, something's off, her peaches should have helped, theoretically, any problems should have been cured.

Also, she brought back a lot of dried peaches for her parents, how could there still be health issues?

In this lifetime, she absolutely won't let her parents suffer from illness-related pain again.

Fan Xiuying saw Jiang Xiaoxiao and forced a smile on her darkened face.

"It's nothing, just a small cold, people eat grains, it's natural to get sick, it's just a little illness."
