Transmigration: I Have Storage Space in the Apocalypse novel Chapter 88

Chapter 88: Chapter 086: Blushing, Bowing Head and Pretending Ignorance

——————

"This..." Zhang Shan Ni felt a headache as she watched the behavior of the group in front of her, and the longer she thought about it, the more she wished they would just take everything away and leave without a farewell!

Firstly, she herself was quite wealthy and didn’t care about the ’three big items’ at this time. Secondly, just thinking that her life wouldn’t be peaceful after today made her teeth sour.

Out of the corner of her eye, she saw her mother-in-law’s eyes shining with excitement, then glanced at her father-in-law, smiling like a wealthy man, and she felt like covering her face.

Zhang Shan Ni held no hope for her in-laws, so she turned to her husband, hoping he would speak up.

Xie Jingchen indeed responded immediately after her, but Zhang Shan Ni wished she could turn back time and yell: Darling, Husband, don’t mess this up, let me handle it!

Catching his little wife’s plea for help, Xie Jingchen immediately said to Liu Guilan, who was about to cry to gain sympathy:

"Aunt Liu, Uncle Li, don’t be upset. The main thing is, the items you brought this time are considered too luxurious in the eyes of us peasants. Our family is just an ordinary farm household, and seeing these items, it’s inevitable to feel a bit nervous, please don’t take it the wrong way. Having your favor for my wife, to tell the truth, I feel much more relieved. I am just a soldier, and I will return to the military tomorrow, leaving my elderly parents and wife at home, so there will inevitably be times we need to trouble you. This time, I’ll boldly accept your gifts, but please don’t do this again, is that alright?"

Xie Jingchen lowered his status a bit while addressing the two elders, Li Baojia and Liu Guilan. He didn’t feel humiliated because if lowering his pride could lead his family to a more comfortable life, he saw nothing wrong with it.

"Good, good, we like your straightforward young man! This is the first visit from the Li and Chen families, and we came to express our gratitude. Most importantly, it’s you and your wife’s wedding celebration day, if our wedding gift was too modest, we wouldn’t feel right showing our faces! Little Xie, rest assured, as long as I, Old Li, am here, your home will be looked after!"

Li Baojia clapped heavily on Xie Jingchen’s shoulder, laughed loudly, and spoke with great enthusiasm.

"Then thank you, Uncle Li!" Xie Jingchen nodded, smiling a bit deeper.

"Don’t be so formal! And don’t call me Uncle Li anymore, it’s too distant. If you don’t mind, just call me Uncle Zhengping. Zhengping is my courtesy name. My only son is a bit older than you, and since you are of similar age, just call him Jianfeng. Brother Tiesheng, Sister-in-law, we should get together more often when we have the time, to build our relationships!"

"Alright, Uncle Zhengping, Brother Jianfeng." Xie Jingchen glanced at his little wife and together they changed how they addressed people.

Zhang Shan Ni suppressed the feeling of powerlessness rising in her heart, a shy and awkward smile appeared on her gloomy face as she glanced at her husband and cheerfully called out to the people with him.
