Wu Yongliang felt ashamed.
Old Wu was paralyzed on one side due to illness, but his brain was not damaged.
Even a fool could tell that his daughter-in-law, Li Sumei, had other motives for coming to the Shen family this time, ostensibly to welcome Wen Qiao.
After finishing his meal, Wu Yongliang called his son, Wu Jiandong.
He said, "Jiandong, your sister Wenqiao just got back. I'll have your Aunt Lü stay at the Shen family's house for a few days. The mother and daughter haven't seen each other properly for years. You can drive me back today."
"Su Mei, call Xiao Wei. I think we can come again next time."
"Xiao Qiao just got back today, and she's probably tired. Let's not let the child make a fuss here."
Li Sumei looked at Wu Jiandong with a conflicted expression.
Before Wu Jiandong and Li Sumei arrived, Li Sumei told him that Wen Qiao had been abroad for many years and had such a wealthy grandfather. They weren't asking Wen Qiao for money, but rather to borrow some from her.
That's what he said, but Wu Jiandong was too embarrassed to say it.
But he couldn't go against his wife's wishes, so he had no choice but to come. Now, hearing his father's words, Wu Jiandong went along with it.
He completely ignored Li Sumei's gaze.
He said to Old Wu, "Okay, Dad, I'll drive."
"Sister Wenqiao, please rest well first. We'll come again another day."
Wen Qiao smiled and said a few words to persuade him to stay. Wu Suowei was still reluctant to leave. However, his children had all grown up and were obedient and sensible. As soon as Old Wu called his grandson's name, Wu Suowei immediately got up.
"Big Bao, Second Bao, Third Bao, little sister, and little brother, I'm going home now."
"I'll ride my bike to visit you guys this weekend."
Da Bao and Er Bao agreed.
Sanbao quietly got up and went out with his mother to see her off.
Wu Jiandong drove away with Wu Yongliang, Li Sumei, and Wu Suowei in his car.
Lü Yazhi watched them leave before finally letting out a sigh of relief.
“They really have the nerve to come here. To be honest, if they had treated my daughter and me better from the beginning, I wouldn’t dislike Li Sumei so much.”
Lu Yazhi's dislike wasn't intentional; rather, she was thinking, "You don't need to take care of me, your stepmother-in-law, until the end, so I won't help you with anything."
Lü Yazhi was able to help take care of the old man's grandson because Wu Suowei was an obedient and sensible child.
What upset Lü Yazhi even more was that Li Sumei felt that if Old Wu could give Lü Yazhi money to open a shop, why couldn't he give her money to open a clothing store?
On the way back, Li Sumei kept a long face.
She noticed that neither her father-in-law nor her husband spoke.
She was indignant and said sourly, "Wen Qiao is now worth a lot more. In the future, Shen Jichuan will have power and Wen Qiao will have money. I'm afraid Aunt Lü will look down on our Wu family."
"Dad, you really are something else. You're giving money to others to do business, without even thinking about your son and your grandson. If my business succeeds, won't Xiaowei be the one who benefits in the future?"
Sitting in the passenger seat, Old Wu said in a stern voice, "If you had just shown some respect to your Aunt Lü back then and hadn't caused those disgusting things, I would never have abandoned you. How dare you say these things to me now?"
"Jiandong, if you ever bring your wife to the Shen family again, I'll break your legs. You're only embarrassed at home, don't bring it to the Shen family."
