Chapter 130 I also want to taste that flavor
Both Secretary Lei and Tian Lei understood what Old Master Lei meant.
That means he won't acknowledge the child in Tian Lei's belly.
As for how Secretary Lei treats this child, that's his own business. But as long as Grandpa Lei is around, this child can only be their child, not the Lei family's child.
This child won't be recorded in the Lei family's genealogy.
Tian Lei felt as if she had been struck by lightning.
The Lei family disowned the child and made her unborn child take the mother's surname, which meant the child would no longer benefit from the Lei family's influence...
"Dad, this is... this child is also your grandchild!" Tian Lei looked at Grandpa Lei with tears in her eyes.
Grandpa Lei glanced at Tian Lei, then glanced at Secretary Lei.
"Didn't I make myself clear?"
I have many grandchildren, but only one every day!
If you still don't understand, just ask the third brother what I mean!
"I'm getting old, and I don't want to repeat myself a third time. Third brother, do you understand what I mean?" Old Master Lei asked, looking at Secretary Lei.
Secretary Lei nodded.
"Dad, I understand what you mean! Don't worry, I will work hard with my own abilities! I will definitely not let you down."
"Very good, that's how a real man should act."
Tian Tian will continue to stay in Yun County. Originally, I wanted to bring him back to Shanghai to attend primary school.
But now that I think about it, I'd better let Tiantian stay in Yun County to study! After she finishes elementary school in Yun County, I'll have Jingwu bring her to Shanghai to study.
"Third brother, spend some quality time with Tiantian these days. I don't want to see Tiantian cry again because of some unrelated people," Grandpa Lei said calmly.
Secretary Lei quickly agreed.
"Alright, let's have a good drink tonight, you and I have been apart for so long, we should have a lot to talk about!"
"Come on, let's go to your study and play a game of chess first."
As he spoke, Old Master Lei got up and walked toward Secretary Lei's study.
Secretary Lei quickly followed him inside.
Seeing the study door close, Tian Lei felt all her strength drain away and slumped onto the sofa.
She touched her stomach, feeling a chill creeping into her heart.
This child will only be able to take his/her surname? The Lei family doesn't need any grandsons.
Haha, this old man is really ruthless. Doesn't he even recognize his own grandson?
Tian Lei simply didn't believe that when the living child stood right in front of the old man, he could really remain unmoved.
...
Grandpa Lei passed away early the next morning.
Before leaving, he gave Lei Jingwu two instructions.
The first thing to do is not to tell Tian Tian that he has been to Yun County. When Lei Jingwu is about to go back this time, ask Tian Tian's opinion. If he wants to go back, he can go back with Lei Jingwu.
If you don't want to go back, then forget it.
The second thing was to ask Lei Jingwu how much money he was giving Yao Shula each month to take care of the child.
“It used to be fifty yuan a month, but then I saw that she took great care of Tiantian, almost treating him like her own younger brother, so I raised it to seventy yuan a month.”
Oh, I have all my daily and monthly food rations, meat coupons, and oil coupons delivered on time.
"It's basically enough," Lei Jingwu quickly said.
He didn't dare say that he had tricked Yao Shula into bringing goods from the south to sell here.
It's better to avoid trouble.
Upon hearing this, Grandpa Lei immediately shook his head.
"That's too little! Seventy yuan a month is a bit too little. The girl treats Tiantian like her own younger brother, so giving her only seventy yuan is too little."
You see, every time I go out with someone, the girls buy me snacks.
And those cloth shoes I wear every day, they must have been made by someone else too! They're all the result of hard work.
Giving someone seventy yuan a month is too little. Let's add another thirty to make it a hundred!
Also, remember what I said: don't send the things you give Tiantian to your third uncle's place every month; send them directly to Yao Shula's house.
"I'll pay for this. I'll have someone calculate the amount for you after I get back to Shanghai," Old Master Lei said immediately.
“Grandpa, Tiantian is also my younger brother!” Lei Jingwu said with a smile.
"I know! But one thing at a time, what's owed to you will still be given to you."
You travel all over the country, and you don't even know how much money you can earn in a month.
The old man won't take advantage of you like that.
Lei Jingwu chuckled.
He's traveled all over the country for so long and has earned quite a bit!
As for how much I actually earned, I'm a little embarrassed to tell the old man.
...
Lei Jingwu did not go back with the old man; he was going to wait for Gu Changqin to bring the goods over in Yun County.
Before Gu Changqin returned, he either stayed in the guesthouse or went for a stroll around the area.
By this time, quite a few people would be setting up stalls to sell things.
Lei Jingwu didn't go directly to Yao Shula's house. He was afraid that Xiao Tiantian would ask him when he got back and why he came empty-handed...
That little guy is much smarter than before; he can figure things out in less than three sentences.
It would be better to wait until Gu Changqin and the others arrive before going together!
...
On that same day, Yao Shula had just finished lunch with her younger siblings and cleaned up.
Little Tiantian patted her round little belly, still feeling a bit unsatisfied.
"Big sister, we had pan-fried dumplings for breakfast and braised pork belly with green beans for lunch. What are we having for dinner?"
"For dinner, we'll have cornmeal porridge, two hot pancakes, a fried egg, and some dried radish."
"We can't eat such oily food every meal!" Yao Shula said with a smile.
Xiao Tiantian thought it was a good idea too.
Cornmeal porridge is also quite good; it's perfect when it's cooled down.
Just as he was about to suggest making another cucumber salad, the courtyard gate was pushed open.
Miao Yamin has arrived.
"Hello, cousin!" Xiao Tiantian immediately went to greet her.
Yao Shula quickly went to greet her.
"My cousin arrived quite early today. Shuxin is already reading in the room. I'll go call her!"
Miao Yamin waved her hand, her eyes filled with excitement.
When Yao Shula saw Miao Yamin like this, she was also a little curious. What good thing had happened to her?
"Cousin, do you have something good to say?" Yao Shula immediately lowered her voice.
Miao Yamin nodded, then gestured for Yao Shula to come and sit down.
Yao Shula quickly pulled Miao Yamin to sit down on a bench in the yard.
Upon seeing this, Xiao Tiantian quickly moved his own little stool and sat down next to Yao Shula, eager to hear what good things his cousin had to say.
Then tell Shuli after school.
Miao Yamin was still a little excited. After letting out a long sigh, she took Yao Shula's hand and asked what was going on.
"I confronted my future mother-in-law today!" Miao Yamin couldn't contain her excitement.
Yao Shula...
"Why did she argue? What did she say?" Yao Shula asked quickly, realizing what had happened.
"Didn't we have lunch at his house today? When he was frying eggs, I suggested shredded eggs!"
She insisted on frying egg slices.
There was nothing wrong with it originally; she could stir up whatever she wanted. It was her home, but she had to be so sarcastic and say that as long as she was there, she was in charge of the household.
"I couldn't help but retort," Miao Yamin said softly.
"How did you respond?" Yao Shula asked, even more curious.
"I asked her then... when are you leaving? I also want to experience what it's like to be in charge!" Miao Yamin said shyly.
Yao Shula's mouth dropped open...
