Chapter 178 Nancy Wants to Buy a Farm


    Chapter 178 Nancy Wants to Buy a Farm


    Early the next morning, Windy asked Marcus and Neil to put on the red hoodies.


    Marcus was reluctant.


    Starting from today, Nancy and her family would visit their rtives and deliver New Year Greetings.


    Nancy and Adam would say "Happy New Year" sweetly to their elders and then receive lucky


    money.


    They visited both the friends of their grandfather and parents.


    Nancy''s cheeks were frequently pinched by her elders. She thought her cheeks became even more


    chubby and she couldn''t help mumbling to herself.


    "Why do those elders like to pinch my cheeks?"

    She stroked her plump face with pity.


    One day, James and Windy took their sons and daughters to visit Yale.


    Yale came to open the door. When he saw Marcus wearing a red hoodie and keeping a straight


    face, he was stunned for several seconds.


    Then...


    He burst intoughter.


    Howls ofughter resounded through the vi of the Thomas family.


    Marcus cast a stern and icy nce at Yale.


    Yale was bent double withughter, "I''m notughing at you. I''ve never seen you dress like this.


    Admittedly, you look younger in the red hoodie. It seems that you suddenly be a college


    student from a middle-aged officer. I was so shocked just now that I even thought when did you


    have a son..."


    As soon as Yale finished speaking, Marcus expressionlessly threw a punch at Yale''s stomach. Yale


    squatted down because it really hurt.


    Yale''s parents witnessed Marcus hitting Yale, but they didn''t take it seriously and became inured to


    it. This was because Marcus and Yale grew up together. Yale was often beaten for his sharp tongue


    by Marcus when they were in school.


    Yale''s parents seldom saw Marcus for these years. They felt nostalgic when they saw their son


    being beaten by Marcus.


    "Wee. Amazingly, Nancy and her elder brothers wear the same clothes. Who came up with this


    idea? It''s good! Nancy is even cuter in the red hoodie!"


    Windy smiled merrily. She and Yale''s mother went arm in arm intimately.


    "That''s my idea. They look so lovely and youthful in the same clothes. Marcus is still unwilling to


    wear the red hoodie. Nancy,e over and greet your uncle and aunt."


    Kate beckoned Nancy over.


    "Happy New Year!"


    Nancy greeted Yale''s parents politely and sweetly. She had a pleasant voice and looked pretty and


    adorable.


    Yale''s mother liked her so much. She only had a son. So she thought it would be perfect if she had


    a daughter who was as well-behaved as Nancy.


    Nancy was warmly weed. Then she and Adam got lucky money from Yale''s parents.


    During the past few days, Nancy visited so many rtives and friends that she felt her legs be


    thinner. Moreover, she was happier when she counted the lucky money every night.


    Of course, some rtives also came to visit Nancy and her family. So Nancy would inevitably meet


    people whom she disliked.


    Yvonne and her family shamelessly came to deliver New Year Greetings. After suffering a great


    loss, Yvonne''s grandmother, who was tart and mean, seemed to be less ungrateful now. She talked


    to Nancy kindly and even gave Nancy lucky money for the first time.


    Marcus still sensed her reluctance when she gave Nancy lucky money. But the trace of reluctance


    soon disappeared. She didn''t show her disgust in her expressions as before.


    Maybe it was because she was used to being arrogant. So her pretense of kindness cracked easily.


    Nancy could also feel the malice from the old woman and still disliked her.


    Nancy hid behind Marcus and then was picked up by Neil in his arms.


    The old woman ttered Nancy, "Nancy, I haven''t seen you for some time. You look more beautiful.


    I''m Yvonne''s grandmother. Did you forget me? Come here, this lucky money is for you."


    Adam rolled his eyes upwards. Then he walked over and took the lucky money with a broad grin.


    "Thank you. I ept it on behalf of Nancy."


    Adam was satisfied when he saw the old woman frown with unwillingness. He deliberately counted


    the lucky money one by one and shouted surprisingly.


    "Oh my God. You are so generous. You gave me and Nancy 150 dors respectively this year. But


    you only gave us 30 dors in the past."


    The old woman was irritated and kept a straight face at once. But the next second, she thought of


    how difficult it was to live without the support of the Brook family. She realized that she should not


    offend the Brook family. Otherwise, she and her family probably had to go back to their hometown


    and lived a poor life.


    So she still tried her best to force a smile and also ttered Adam.


    Adam was pleased to see the old woman dared not be arrogant. He gave Nancy her share of lucky


    money.


    "Nancy, take it. Anyway, Dad will also give them lucky money. I used to be the only kid to receive


    lucky money in our family. The old woman always gives me 30 dors, but Dad gives each one of


    her grandchildren 150 dors. We often suffer losses."


    Adam said with an indignant look. He hoped that his father could give them less lucky money.


    The old woman said angrily, "Adam, how dared you say these words?"


    She was always haughty and aggressive at her home, so she ran off her endurance easily.


    Moreover, she was teased by Adam, who was just a little kid. She couldn''t help presuming her old


    age to scold Adam.


    Neil patted Adam casually and apologized to the old woman with a smile, "Sorry. Adam is honest


    and direct at his age. Don''t take it to heart."


    The old woman was even madder when she heard the words "honest and direct".


    The old woman was so angry that her chest was painful.


    Marcus immediately called Philip, "Fetch a family doctor and put him on standby."


    There was no room for ckmail!


    Windy almost burst outughing. She covered her mouth and leaned against her husband''s


    shoulder. She was trembling because she tried hard to suppress a smile.


    The haughty old woman was mocked by Windy''s sons and took on an embarrassed expression.


    Windy was amused!


    The Elderly Mr. Brook coughed suddenly.


    He winked at Marcus and Neil. He wanted them to stop mocking the old woman. If the old woman


    got sick from being irritated, she musty the me on the Brook family.


    Yvonne was sitting on the sofa with a fixed smile. She clenched her fists under her long sleeves.


    She visited Uncle James each New Year Holiday, but this time she was experiencing the hardest


    moment.


    Marcus and Neil didn''t like Yvonne and her family, but they would just ignore them in the past. But


    this year...


    Yvonne bit her lip and her eyes fell on Nancy, who was being held by Neil.


    As soon as Yvonne looked over, she met Marcus'' icy gaze. Her face turned pale at once with fright.


    Her face went paler when she thought of the warning Marcus had given her after Nancy''s birthday


    party.


    She thought it was all Nancy''s fault. Nancy must have spoken ill of her in front of Marcus and Neil.


    How could Nancy be so insidious and despicable at such a young age! She wondered why they


    treated Nancy so well!


    As the saying goes, one who apologized with a smile should be forgiven. The old woman and her


    family visited the Brook family with smiles today. In normal times, an excuse could be easily found


    to refuse their visit. But it was during the New Year Holiday now. It was tricky to deal with them.


    The old woman restrained her anger and sat nearby the Elderly Mr. Brook to fawn on him. Her son


    and daughter-inw also tried to find a topic for conversation. Liz stared at the snacks on the table


    and stuffed lots of them into her pocket.


    Liz hadn''t seen snacks at her home for a long time. Now her grandmother and parents weren''t


    responsive to her needs anymore. She was told that it was all because of Nancy that her family


    lived a miserable life. So she disliked Nancy and put all the me on her.


    She was afraid of Marcus, so she could only cast Nancy a hostile re from time to time. She didn''t


    dare to look Nancy square in the eyes.


    "Nancy, I aming."


    Ivan''s voice came from outside. Then he ran into the house and wore the same red hoodie as


    Nancy, holding a sika deer plush toy.


    "Here you are. I bought it for you in City A. Isn''t it cute? I think of you when I look at its eyes."


    The sika deer plush toy was snow-white. Its eyes were beautiful and lifelike, which was simr to


    Nancy''s.


    Shawn followed Ivan toe in. He changed the red hoodie into the clothes he usually wore. He


    looked aloof, detached and handsome. The moment Yvonne saw Shawn, she was deeply attracted


    and felt her heart racing. She stared at Shawn with great affection.
