Chapter 185: Eyes Full of Stars
Gu Xixing said appropriately, "Then I won't bother you anymore. I'll come visit you again when I have the chance."
After saying that, Gu Xixing turned and left.
"Doctor Sun, I don't want it. It's too much money."
"What's too much? Use it to buy some nice clothes. It's almost Chinese New Year, and you're wearing too plain clothes. What young person would dress like you? You look like a Taoist nun."
"I……."
Tu Ran was shocked. Old man Sun actually despised her?
The clothes don’t look good?
Oh my god!
Tu Ran was about to say something when the old man turned around and went upstairs.
Helplessly, Tu Ran had to put the red envelope away, thinking of using the money to buy goods for Dr. Sun later.
Anyway, a lot of Chinese medicine needs to be replenished every month.
When he got off work, Tu Ran received a call from a stranger.
Tu Ran: Hello?
Other party: Excuse me, is this Mrs. Xie? (Male voice)
Tu Ran: I am.
The other party: Madam Xie, I am Peng Yuan.
Tu Ran: Is there something wrong?
Peng Yuan: Of course there's something wrong. I remember when the Lin family got into trouble before, the Xie family didn't help, right? Everyone in the circle knows that Mr. Xie looks down on the Lin family, but...
Tu Ran continued to listen silently.
Peng Yuan: But recently, Mr. Xie actually lent his gold medal lawyer to that bitch Lin Siyao, and wanted to file for divorce with me. What's going on?
Tu Ran: If Mr. Peng wants to ask someone, he shouldn’t ask me. He should call Xie Nancheng directly.
Peng Yuan: I'm afraid you're still in the dark, Madam Xie. You know that bitch Lin Siyao has been trying to hook up with your husband, right? I'm guessing they're having an affair, which is why she lent her the lawyer. That bitch Lin Siyao, relying on her pretty face, is so utterly despicable. Madam Xie, you'd better be careful with her, or rather, keep an eye on your husband.
Tu Ran: What Mr. Peng said to me is meaningless.
Tu Ran: I have no control over Lin Siyao, nor Xie Nancheng.
Tu Ran: I hope you won’t bother me again in the future.
After saying that, Tu Ran hung up the phone with a snap.
Peng Yuan cursed angrily, "Damn it! This stinky woman actually hung up on me!"
"Forget it. He's a coward, I guess. He has no family background, so he really can't control Xie Nancheng. Let's see how long that stinky bitch Lin Siyao can keep her complacency."
The Peng family has always been very calculating. When they got married, apart from the gift money, they didn't give anything extra.
Lin Siyao’s villa and sports car are all under the name of the Peng family.
Even the jewelry she wore to the dinner was temporarily lent to her by her mother-in-law.
That's why she wanted to divide the money so much during the divorce. If Xie Nancheng hadn't lent her a lawyer, the Peng family would have definitely taken advantage of her.
But now, the situation has changed again.
I heard that the lawyer has recently collected a lot of evidence of Peng Yuan's extramarital affair, as well as some witnesses of domestic violence against Lin Siyao. This is not good for the Peng family.
Peng Yuan's call to Tu Ran was nothing more than an attempt to sow discord.
I hope this woman will make a fuss and force Xie Nancheng to take the lawyer back.
Don't help Lin Siyao with the lawsuit.
But who knew that the woman didn't care about any of this at all.
After get off work, Tu Ran unexpectedly did not return to Mu Wanjun's house.
Instead, he took a taxi and went straight back to the old house.
Before getting on the bus, I went to a boutique supermarket and bought a lot of fruits.
When I returned to the old house, Xie Huailan and his family were there.
Seeing Tu Ran carrying the fruit, Xie Huailan sneered, "You treated yourself like a guest and even brought a gift home. But this gift is really too cheap. How can you be so embarrassed to give it to others?"
Tu Ran smiled and said, "I don't have much money, I can only afford to buy fruit, but Second Aunt is so rich, but I never see her bring jewelry for Grandma every time she comes."
Xie Huailan: ...
Pinggu almost couldn't hold back her laughter after hearing these words.
Just as Xie Huailan was about to start cursing, the old lady came down from upstairs.
"Mom, did you hear that?"
"Look, this is your good granddaughter-in-law? She always argues with the elders?"
"Why is she talking to you and not to others? Isn't it you who is teasing her?" The old lady was too embarrassed to directly say that her own daughter was mean-spirited.
Xie Huailan's eyes widened. "What kind of logic is this? Can't you be so obvious about your bias?"
"Why am I partial? You've been living a life of luxury in the Xie family for so many years, and you don't know the sufferings of the world. Ranran grew up in the mountains and suffered a lot. When he came to our house, he didn't spend money lavishly. Now he even found a part-time job. He used his own money to buy some fruit. What reason do you have to criticize him?"
"I just think these things are too worthless." Xie Huailan deliberately found fault.
"Then you, a family of three, eat here all year round, so you can see what you bought?"
"Or what did Zhao Hui buy?"
Xie Huailan was speechless after hearing this.
She really never bought any gifts for the old house. Not only that, she also asked her fat son to go to her grandmother to ask for this and that from time to time. The old lady usually loved her grandson and gave him everything.
The eldest wife was more magnanimous and didn't say anything.
"Zhao Hui, go pick up our son, let's go."
"This home is becoming less and less welcoming."
"The elbows are turned outward."
"Sooner or later, when you have the chance, outsiders will be outsiders."
Xie Huailan lost her temper for no apparent reason and left with her husband and son.
"Don't pay attention to her, she has that kind of temper." The old lady comforted Tu Ran.
"I don't mind, Grandma. Oh, by the way, I bought some fruits that are warm in nature and sweet. Ask Aunt Ping to heat them up for you before eating. This Qiuyue pear can be stewed with rock sugar. It's very fresh and good for the lungs."
"Okay, okay, Ranran bought it, so I will definitely eat it."
Then, Tu Ran handed the fruit to Pinggu.
"Where are Dad and Mom?" Tu Ran asked.
"I went to the neighboring city to attend a relative's grandson's full moon banquet."
"I'm afraid I won't be able to come back today. I might have to stay over there."
"Oh." Tu Ran nodded.
"You and Nancheng should hurry up, otherwise... our family is just giving away compensation money. We spend a lot every year and can't get it back. When your child is born, I will hold a big banquet in Xiangcheng. It will last for three days and three nights, and all relatives and friends will come."
"This matter has not been planned yet, grandma. We are still young, maybe..."
"Grandma understands everything and won't force you. Just let nature take its course and everything will work out."
"Thank you, grandma."
Tu Ran shook the old lady's hand gratefully.
The old lady hadn't seen her granddaughter-in-law for several days and was indeed in a good mood.
I kept chatting with Tu Ran, talking about school and work, and the atmosphere was particularly good.
An hour later, the old lady felt a little tired, so Pinggu helped her back to her room to rest.
Tu Ran went upstairs, opened the medicine box first, and stared at the heart-nourishing grass for a long time.
Then, just as he was about to open the Hundred-Year-Old Ginseng King...
Then I heard the master bedroom door open.
She turned her head subconsciously.
Xie Nancheng didn't even have time to take off his suit jacket, he even jogged up the stairs.
At this time, the boss was leaning against the door frame.
My eyes are full of stars.
"Stay home tonight and don't leave, okay?"
Tu Ran was stunned. What kind of a request was this?
Mainly because it sounds so ambiguous.
