With Ye Qingqing's interruption, the house purchase was completely ruined. The woman was extremely unwilling, as she had just gotten her hands on the prize and was about to have it, only to have that brat ruin it all.

She's not even married yet, but she's already interfering so much and overstepping her bounds!

The woman secretly glared at Ye Qingqing and cursed under her breath. Ye Qingqing sensed it and sneered inwardly. With her around, no one could take advantage of Lu Mo's family.

Zhang Baosheng only cared about eating from beginning to end. He even clinked glasses with the old man a few times, drinking until his face was flushed and he looked very content. Anyway, he didn't care about family matters, as long as he had food and drink.

Hearing Lin Shufang say she was going back to her hometown, Zhang Baosheng snapped out of his daze and exclaimed, "My cousin will come to my house for dinner then!"

Lin Shufang smiled and agreed, "Okay, Baosheng, eat some vegetables, don't just eat meat. I see you've gained a lot of weight compared to previous years, so eat lighter meals, less meat and more vegetables."

Zhang Baosheng was unhappy and muttered, "What's the point of living if I don't eat meat? Before, I only got one pound and two ounces of meat coupons a month, and I only got one bite. Now I'm going to eat my fill."

As he spoke, he picked up another piece of chubby meat, put it in his mouth, and chewed it heartily with a satisfied expression.

Vegetables can't compare to meat. My cousin has become so confused living in the city that she doesn't know how to enjoy her good fortune.

Lin Shufang wanted to persuade her again, but Ye Qingqing quietly patted her leg. Zhang Baosheng was a greedy and lazy person who definitely couldn't control his mouth. If Lin Shufang said too much, it would only annoy her, and Zhang Baosheng wouldn't appreciate it.

Besides, it's your own body. If you don't cherish it, no amount of talking from others will help.

The woman didn't care what her husband ate. Her mind was racing, and she came up with another good idea. She smiled and said, "I've been to Pingjiang quite a few times, but I've never really explored it properly. This time I have some free time, so I'd like to stay at my cousin's place for a few days and see all of Pingjiang."

"Didn't you say there was no one at home...?"

Zhang Baosheng started shouting. His wife hadn't said that when they came. She said she would go back home after buying the house, and that she was worried about leaving their son alone at home.

The woman glared at him fiercely, and Zhang Baosheng dared not utter another word, obediently shutting his mouth and eating the meat.

Lin Shufang naturally wouldn't refuse and agreed to let the couple stay. She even said she would take them to visit the scenic area. However, the woman was distracted; she had no interest in the scenic area at all and only wanted the house.

That brat surnamed Ye can't just stay here every day. Lu Mo also has to go to work. When it's just her and her cousin left, she can coax her a bit. Her cousin is soft-hearted and easily swayed, so she'll definitely agree to sell.

Then I'll coax my cousin back to her hometown to complete the paperwork, and then I'll have a big house in my hands.

The woman had planned everything meticulously, and a smile appeared on her face. She felt confident of victory; as long as that brat didn't cause trouble, she would definitely be able to easily take down Lin Shufang.

Ye Qingqing saw through her little scheme and of course wouldn't stop Lin Shufang from keeping the guests. She knew her place and wasn't in a hurry at all. This woman thought she understood Lin Shufang, but in reality, she didn't understand her at all.

Although Lin Shufang is easily swayed, she will always keep her promises once she has made them. This woman's plan is going to fail.

After dinner, Lu Mo drove Ye Qingqing home. On the way, Lu Mo asked, "Why did you keep that house?"

It's definitely not for friends, nor is it for myself. What's so great about staying in an old house? You can stay in a hotel when you're traveling.

"I hate that woman. She never helped you and Aunt Fang before, and now she's trying to take advantage of you. You'd better keep an eye on her. Don't sell that house to anyone, not even if it collapses," Ye Qingqing reiterated.

Lu Mo chuckled. This little busybody was quite nosy, but he was quite pleased with her.
