Real And Fake Young Lady: I Have Seven Brothers Pampering Me After I Transmigrated
Chapter 154 - HandmadeChapter 154: Handmade
Ye Ting’s return to the Chu family that day was to deliver a profound lesson to Chu Ning!
And now was the critical moment for her to display her eloquence. For this, she had made ample preparations!
When everyone had been seated around the table, Ye Ting picked up the drink in front of her and took the lead to speak, “Uncle Chu, happy birthday! During the time that I’ve returned to the Ye family, I’ve missed you very much, along with Auntie and, of course, my brothers. But some people think that I’m just pretending and not telling the truth, that I’m just putting on an act. However, the fact that I’ve returned to this family on this special day makes things clear.”
After Ye Ting clinked glasses with Father Chu, she took out a number of small and exquisite woven ornaments from her school bag.
“Uncle Chu, Auntie Chu, and my brothers, including sister Chu Ning, I’ve prepared a small gift for each of you. It’s not very special and not expensive, but I made it myself. It represents my heart.”
Each of the knitted ornaments she took out represented a character, which was the name of every member of the Chu family, while Chu Ning’s had the word “Ning”!

She had made these herself. It was supposed to be her trump card, but after the Dragon Boat Festival Gala, she felt that if she didn’t do something about it, she reckoned that these things might not be of much use then.
And today, Father Chu’s birthday provided her with a great opportunity!
Ye Ting distributed the small gifts she had prepared to everyone present, including Chu Ning.
“Auntie, I’ll leave Third Brother’s, Fifth Brother’s, Sixth Brother’s, and Seventh Brother’s in your care. When they come back in future, you can pass these to them.”
Ye Ting said with a smile.
Mother Chu accepted these small handmade gifts from Ye Ting with a complicated expression. No one present could refuse them.
First of all, it wasn’t expensive. Secondly, it was made by Ye Ting herself.
“Wow, Xiao Ting, you’re too thoughtful! Even when you returned to the Ye family, you didn’t forget about us.” Chu Huan was like an audience watching a performance, cheering for Ye Ting at the appropriate times.
After Chu Huan had said that, he didn’t forget to look at Chu Ning with a smug look.
The meaning was very obvious. Ye Ting had prepared such heartfelt and sincere items for Father Chu’s birthday, but she, Chu Ning, didn’t have anything to show.
“Xiao Ting is thoughtful.” Chu Zhe smilingly agreed.
Chu Jing remained silent. He didn’t express his opinion, but he didn’t reject the item that Ye Ting had publicly gifted him.
Father Chu was also deeply touched. In his opinion, when Ye Ting had been in the Chu family, she had never been as sensible as she was today. However, even when she had returned to a wealthy family like the Ye family, she still spent a lot of effort to create these gifts that were not considered exquisite, but could move people.
“Mom and Dad, I don’t have the ability to earn money right now. My usual expenses are all pocket money given by my parents, so I’m not very rich either. But when I have the ability to earn money in the future, I’ll definitely work hard to let both of you and my brothers live a good life instead of enjoying it alone. I feel that when a person is rich, he has a reason and an obligation to give back to his family.”
If Ye Ting’s first two sentences were considered normal, then the last two sentences were blatantly mocking Chu Ning.

Chu Jing appeared very calm as usual. No one could guess what was going through his mind.
Although Chu Huan was a little puzzled, he knew that Ye Ting had given a good speech. He could not help but start clapping.
And thus, he really did so.
“Good. Well said, Xiao Ting. These are the correct life values!” Chu Huan said as he clapped enthusiastically. However, he was embarrassed to find that no one else echoed what he had said.
Including Father and Mother Chu, the expressions on their faces were also a little unnatural.
Both husband and wife could hear the ridicule that Ye Ting was aiming at Chu Ning.
And Chu Ning, as the person involved, could naturally feel it.
However, she did not appear to be irate. She continued to maintain her smile and looked at peace.
“I think Ye Ting spoke very well. I feel the same.” Chu Ning looked at Ye Ting appreciatively.
She decided to let Ye Ting off. She did not want to embarrass her, even though she was already provoking her.
