Chapter 150: Awkward New Marriage (37)

****

"Mom, have you and Dad been harassed by others because I married Qiao Chutian?"

"There's nothing at all, Xiaomai, you don't need to overthink it. Just be happy with your husband Qiao. As for the neighbors' gossip, it doesn't concern your Dad and me. They're just jealous that you married well."

Mom said in a hurry.

Hearing Mom's words, Mai Xiaomai's heart sank again.

Based on her understanding of her mother, if she said that, they must have already faced criticism and harassment from others.

"Is Dad home?"

"He's watching TV. Do you want to talk to him? I'll give him the phone."

"Okay."

Mai Xiaomai's mood sank again.

Knowing her father's habits, at this time of day, he should be out in the community playing chess with those old men. The fact that he was at home watching TV meant there must be trouble.

"Xiaomai, it's Dad."

Dad happily answered the phone.

"Dad, why aren't you playing chess anymore?"
