Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife novel Chapter 1289

Chapter 1289: Chapter 1290: Proud

Facing this aunt she didn’t have much fondness for, Cheng Su put on a big smile, but the other person wasn’t as full of smiles as she was, instead casting her a bland glance, as if Cheng Su owed her a lot of money, not showing a good face at all.

Meanwhile, Deng Weiqiu gave Cheng Su a once-over, unable to hide the envy and jealousy in her eyes.

Cheng Su was dressed wonderfully. To celebrate her brother-in-law, she wore a festive outfit: a thin woolen black dress, paired with a red blouse with lace accents tucked into her skirt, and a slim waist, her hair neatly pinned up, along with a pair of shining high heels on her feet, looking both elegant and fashionable.

Deng Weiqiu glanced at her own dull gray clothes and the pair of worn-out cloth shoes on her feet, a hint of malice flashed across her face. At her age, the damn second brother who should have taken family responsibility eloped with a widow, leaving her burdened with taking care of their mother, unable even to find a potential partner.

How could she find one? As soon as people heard she had a mother who had a stroke, they would hear about the scandal Deng Weixia caused. Who would dare to marry her? Isn’t it a disgrace? Even if someone dared, she would need a dowry!

But what income does her family have, and how could they save up for a dowry? The money she earned from working was barely enough to support herself and her mother, not to mention taking care of her ailing mother. Where would she find the money and energy to dress up?

Clearly, she was younger than Cheng Su, but now in comparison, Cheng Su looked fresh and youthful, while she seemed several years older.

Heaven is really unfair!

"Big sister, you’re here!" Mother Qi greeted, having finished her prayers, and said: "Didn’t I say, your legs aren’t well, you didn’t have to come?"

"How could I not come, with Jianguo being so promising, getting into university like this? As his aunt, I have to come and congratulate him, and wish him a bright future!" said the aunt.
