Chapter 179: Afraid We'd Take Her Demolition Compensation (Page 1/2)
Since they are back this time, Chen Baomei should arrange everything.
But even at this time, Chen Baomei didn't tell her about the future arrangements.
Not to mention the specific arrangements, I have to tell her roughly where I want to go so that they can prepare early.
Chen Baomei said ambiguously: "Of course, the arrangement depends on your wishes."
She won't come tomorrow, they can go wherever they want.
Chen Baolan still thought that everything was decided by them.
She was also very happy and said to Chen Baomei: "Okay, see you tomorrow."
Chen Baomei curled her lips and left with Shen Ru.
After arriving home, Shen Ru and Shen Yin began to complain about their aunt Chen Baolan and her outrageous son and daughter-in-law.
After Guo Xiaoxiao knew that Chen Baomei did not plan to host Chen Baolan's family, she invited Chen Baomei to go to Pingwu County to soak in the hot springs tomorrow.
"Mom, since we don't have much to do at home, we might as well go over there and play for a few days. I plan to take Jiuer's grandparents with us so we can have some fun together."
Chen Baomei was still thinking about where to kill time.
Guo Xiaoxiao's proposal was exactly what she wanted.
But, "Places like this need to be booked in advance, right? Are there enough rooms for so many of us?"
Guo Xiaoxiao: "I have a friend who owns a hot spring resort over there. I've booked it with him."
It's just a favor.
Chen Baomei, "Okay, let's go to the hot springs tomorrow."
Chen Baomei agreed, and Guo Xiaoxiao immediately called to book a room.
The next morning, the whole family set out and drove to Pingwu County, a famous hot spring county under Yangcheng City.
After having breakfast at the hotel, Chen Baolan and her family were waiting for Chen Baomei and others to come and pick them up.
As a result, after waiting for a long time, Chen Baomei still didn't come until after nine o'clock.
The two grandchildren were getting impatient and wanted to go out and play, so Chen Baolan quickly called Chen Baomei.
"Sister, what time is it? Why haven't you come yet? Diane and Kevin are both clamoring to go out and play. I'm not saying anything harsh on you, but are you still not up?"
Diane and Kevin are the English names of Chen Baolan's two granddaughters and grandson.
It takes more than an hour to drive from the city to Pingwu County. Chen Baomei and her friends have now arrived at the hot spring resort run by Guo Xiaoxiao's friend.
The environment here is really good, and Chen Baomei felt much more comfortable.
She smiled and said, "We're not coming over. Didn't we say yesterday that it's up to you to decide how to arrange it?"
"What?"
Chen Baolan's pupils trembled.
Her sister couldn't even explain it!
"Is this what you meant by what you said yesterday?!"
Chen Baomei: “Yes.”
Otherwise, she would have to serve them wholeheartedly while finding fault with them and looking down on them.
So what if they are sisters? She doesn't want to suffer such humiliation.
Chen Baolan was so angry that her chest heaved. "Sister, how could you do this? I finally came back from abroad. How could you, as my sister, be so disregarding of sisterly love?"
Chen Baomei: "First, correct your attitude towards me, then come and talk to me about sisterly love. By the way, the hotel is only booked for one day, and you have to check out after midnight. If you want to continue staying, please go to the front desk to renew your room."
She spent most of the day picking them up, booking rooms for them and treating them to dinner. That was quite thoughtful of her.
Chen Baolan wanted to say something but Chen Baomei hung up the phone.
She was so angry that she threw her phone onto the bed.
Tian Chengzong quickly asked, "Mom, what did Auntie say? How long will it take for them to come?"
"Come over here, they're not coming. They told us to make our own arrangements!"
"What?" Tian Chengzong exclaimed in surprise.
"How could Auntie be like this? We haven't been back for so many years, and she treats us like this?"
Mai Jialin mocked in English: "People in China are just stingy. I told you that your aunt is not a good person."
Tian Qiaoan rolled her eyes and said to her speechless sister-in-law, "It's all because of you. You're always showing off your English in front of others. We're all Chinese, why are you pretending? You're pretending to be superior by speaking foreign words."
This sister-in-law has always been at odds with her, and Mai Jialin was a little embarrassed when she was hit by her.
Without waiting for her to refute, Tian Qiaoan continued to talk about Chen Baolan's problem.
"And you, too, Mom. You're always saying things about my aunt, saying she's too old. You're not much older than my aunt, so how can you talk to her like that? You also said something about my aunt's divorce from my ex-uncle. That's their private matter. Why do you care so much? Even if you really want to say something, it was my ex-uncle's fault. How can you blame my aunt for getting a divorce so easily?"
"You weren't like this when you were abroad, so why are you all so superior and looking down on others now that you're back? With your attitude, I wouldn't want to host you either."
Chen Baolan was so angry that her face turned purple.
He pointed at Tian Qiaoan and cursed with a trembling voice, "You...you stupid girl with a wicked mind!"
Tian Qiaoan snorted, "Alright, do you still want to stay here? If so, I'll go downstairs and reserve a room now."
Of course I have to stay.
It’s already so late. We can’t ask them to bring their families and suitcases and find another place.
At least get through these two days.
Tian Qiaoan went to extend the room as he said.
When she comes back, ask Chen Baolan to transfer the money to her.
Chen Baomei booked three rooms for three nights in a star-rated hotel, which was more expensive, spending a total of more than 5,000 yuan.
Chen Baolan didn't want to give it, so she asked her youngest daughter to pay for the rent.
Tian Qiaoan turned to her elder brother Tian Chengzong to ask for money, but Tian Chengzong did not give her any.
She was so angry that she went back to the house to pack her things and decided not to bother with them. She let them do whatever they wanted and she was going out to play by herself.
After calming down, Chen Baolan decided to go to Chen Baomei's house.
They are sisters. Now that she has come to her sister's house, how can her sister turn her away?
She didn't know that Chen Baomei had already moved to the city, and thought she was still living in Dongping Village raising pigs.
Since her younger daughter couldn't be relied upon, Chen Baolan asked Tian Chengzong to go out and call a taxi.
Five people couldn't fit in one car, so Tian Chengzong called two taxis.
Mai Jialin, who complained about Shen Ru's low-end car yesterday, almost vomited while taking a taxi today.
Not only was the smell inside the car unpleasant, but the taxi was also driving very fast, which was much worse than the car Shen Ru drove yesterday.
When she arrived at Dongping Village, which had undergone major renovations, Chen Baolan was stunned.
She couldn't find her former home.
It was completely different from the Dongping Village she remembered. She couldn't even find the direction of her original home.
Of course, they are not stupid.
After asking many people, Chen Baolan found out that this place had been demolished two years ago.
The original inhabitants have all moved away; some have bought houses in the city, and some have moved into government resettlement housing.
Not only that, after the demolition, many indigenous people have transformed from low-level farmers into millionaires or even tens of millions of dollars.
Someone also revealed to Chen Baolan that her elder sister Chen Baomei alone had demolished tens of millions!
Chen Baolan was shocked.
She clenched her fists and said angrily, "No wonder, no wonder she avoided us so much when we came back. It turns out she was afraid we would steal her demolition compensation!"
