Returning to the year 1970, He Tianti...

Chapter 394 An Encounter at the Mall

394

Regardless of right or wrong, Ye Weiwen was determined to get one million from her son today to curb her daughter-in-law's arrogance.

“We already gave An’an one million last month, and we don’t have that much money in the account.” Xin Wei refused; he wasn’t going to give her that much this time.

Seeing her husband's reaction, Li Yushan felt slightly relieved. Without even glancing at her mother-in-law or sister-in-law, she took her child upstairs.

"Stop right there! If you're not guilty, why are you trying to leave?" Ye Weiwen sneered. You think you can just leave after trying to sow discord between mother and son, and between siblings? No way.

However, Li Yushan did not stop, pretending not to hear.

Every time the mother-in-law and sister-in-law failed to achieve their goal, they would find excuses against her, saying that she wouldn't let her husband help.

It was a misunderstanding before, but this time it's for real.

Li Yushan didn't want to argue. Since she had decided to break off all ties, there was no need to wrong herself.

"You...you...Awei, you saw that, didn't you? Your wife doesn't respect me at all," Ye Weiwen said. "I don't want to live anymore, I don't want to live anymore! With a son and daughter-in-law like this, how can I live!"

Xin An'an watched the show from the sidelines, while Xin Wei was speechless with exasperation.

Xin Wei didn't want to pay attention and went straight upstairs.

Ye Weiwen and Xin An'an, seeing that everyone had left, started making a scene at home. Even with that spendthrift Li Yushan around, they wouldn't get any money.

Xin An'an cried so miserably, she knew she wouldn't have any money left.

"Don't be afraid, An'an. Mom will take you to the company tomorrow. Your older brother won't abandon you. You saw it yourself, your sister-in-law isn't happy, so of course your older brother won't give you money to spend," Ye Weiwen comforted her. No matter what, she was determined to get the money from her son.

"Mom, you're the best," Xin An'an said, kissing Ye Weiwen on the cheek.

Although Ye Weiwen was being a bit silly, he wasn't completely confused. He said, "An'an, since your companies are losing money, why don't you ask your older brother to manage them for you? That way, you'll have money to spend."

"Mom, you only love my brother, not me. That's my business. If I don't manage it and hand it over to someone else, it won't be mine anymore," Xin An'an complained. Her husband is currently managing the company, and it's because of this tacit understanding that he allows her to have affairs without getting a divorce.

This is what a carefree and happy life is like!

"Okay, okay, I won't say anymore." Ye Weiwen felt very sorry for her daughter when she saw that she was angry. She loved her daughter very much, as she looked very much like her.

Li Yushan finally breathed a sigh of relief after her mother-in-law and sister-in-law left.

“Sigh, if they really can’t make ends meet, we won’t abandon them,” Li Yushan said. “But they spend money like water, without any restraint, only spending and not earning. No matter how much money we have, it’s not enough for them. We still have two children at home, so we can’t not think about ourselves.”

Xin Wei nodded and said, "I know all that. I won't indulge their bad habits in the future."

Xin Wei's plan was good, but not long after he arrived at the company the next day, Ye Weiwen brought Xin An'an with him.

In front of the employees, she pleaded with Xin Wei to help her sister.

In front of so many people, Xin Wei felt utterly humiliated for the first time, and hated himself for having such a mother and sister.

Because a major client was coming today, and if his mother made such a scene, the business deal would definitely fall through, he had no choice but to write a check for one million to Xin An'an.

Having received the money, Ye Weiwen left happily with his daughter Xin An'an.

"Mommy, you're amazing." Xin An'an hugged her mother and kissed her several times. "My brother is still very filial to Mommy, but he's not as nice to me as he used to be."

“Don’t be ungrateful. Your brother has given you 30 million in total, but he hasn’t made much money from it,” Ye Weiwen said. “However, you really need to manage your business properly. You can’t just play around all day.”

"Okay, Mommy." Xin An'an nodded. "Mom, let's go shopping. We haven't bought the things we liked the other day. We don't even know if they're still available."

Hearing that her daughter wanted to be filial to her, Ye Weiwen was happy, and the two went shopping together.

However, while they were shopping, having spent most of their money and carrying large bags, they saw Bai Qiongyu and an old lady selecting jewelry together in a jewelry store.

"Who is that old lady next to that old woman Bai?" Ye Weiwen asked. "I've known her for decades, and I've never seen her so friendly with anyone. She's smiling like a blooming chrysanthemum."

This description is a jab at the wrinkles on Bai Qiongyu's face.

However, compared to Bai Qiongyu, Ye Weiwen had more wrinkles on her face, but since there was no mirror in front of her, she couldn't see her own face.

A typical crow perched on a black pig's back can only see the blackness of others, not its own.

“I don’t know that old woman, but I recognize the woman next to her as Mrs. Qi, Qi Shu’s wife,” Xin An’an said. “That old woman I don’t recognize must be Qi Shu’s mother, right? Otherwise, Anna wouldn’t be so attentive to her!”

It's obvious that the daughter-in-law is flattering her mother-in-law!

My sister-in-law, Li Yushan, used to do this all the time, but now that her children are older and more independent, she doesn't act like that anymore.

Ye Weiwen smiled and said, "It's rare to see Bai Qiongyu flattering someone like this. Let's go take a look."

Xin An'an hesitated for a moment. She knew that her mother would argue with her stepmother eight out of ten times.

Arguing with his stepmother is nothing; others may know about the Xin family's affairs, but in front of the Qi family, it looks very bad.

“Okay, Mommy. Let’s not go there,” Xin An’an said. “Let’s go another time.”

"No way." Ye Weiwen shoved Xin An'an aside and walked over. "Take another look. There's a little girl next to Bai Qiongyu who looks a lot like her. Aren't you curious about who she is?"

Hearing her mother's words, Xin An'an was stunned, and this time she saw the girl next to her stepmother clearly.

The stepmother was putting a brand-new diamond necklace on the girl's neck; it was worth two million dollars. She had looked at it several times but hadn't been able to bring herself to buy it.

The stepmother actually wants to buy it for that little girl. What is their relationship?

Moreover, the fact that the two look so alike is quite intriguing!

“Let’s go take a look,” Xin An’an said, this time urging Ye Weiwen.

"Little Bai, you seem to be in a good mood. It's rare to see you shopping." Ye Weiwen walked up to her with a smile on her face, but her eyes were filled with disdain, and even more so with jealousy.

Bai Qiongyu was busy dressing up He Tiantian and didn't even notice Ye Weiwen's arrival.

Upon hearing Ye Weiwen's voice, Bai Qiongyu felt a surge of annoyance.

Bai Qiongyu turned around, saw Ye Weiwen, and then glanced at Xin An'an.

"Hmm, you seem to be in a good mood too," Bai Qiongyu said slowly, suppressing her annoyance.

Bai Qiongyu turned around and continued to help He Tiantian choose jewelry.

"Aren't you going to introduce us to that girl?" Ye Weiwen became even more curious. This girl was Bai Qiongyu in her youth.
