Chapter 223 You Are Just a Fool and a Sucker



When the unyielding old man He saw Tang Jingchuan coming to his house as a guest, he jumped out of the car impatiently without waiting for his daughter-in-law to help him. His legs and feet were not very flexible to begin with, and he refused to let anyone help him, so he tripped over the steps and almost fell headfirst.

He Zhenyuan knew what kind of person his old man was, so he hurried to catch him before he fell and explained to Tang Jingchuan.

"I wasn't messing around. I went to the department store to pick out clothes for my great-grandson. Then I dressed the three kids up the same way and took them for a walk around the compound. I don't know how much those old guys envied me."

"Of course, we have to bring little Qi Ranran with us."

"Three great-grandsons and two great-granddaughters."

Mr. He was full of energy: "Jingchuan, who can be more blessed than me?"

"I think this marriage is right, right? Send that stinky boy to the countryside and marry him a good wife."

Tang Jingchuan was amused.

I can already imagine the scene when Weiwei and He Ting come back with the children and the old man walks around the compound showing off.

When his grandson went to the countryside and had three great-grandchildren, it would shock a group of old leaders and make them very proud.

Old Master He said that the person he chose for his grandson was blessed. Tang Jingchuan quickly said modestly that Lu Baiwei was blessed to marry into the He family. The old man became even happier and did not let his son He Zhenyuan support him, but asked Tang Jingchuan to support him into the house.

Someone was coaxing the old man, and He Zhenyuan hurried to the back of the jeep to help Wei Shuhua and daughter-in-law Gu Min move things.

He Zhenyuan was shocked when he saw the pile of things behind the jeep.

“Buy so much?”

"Well, the old man wants to buy this, and he also wants to buy this for his great-grandson, and that one too."

The family just came back from the Northwest. They had decided to go to the Northwest and had to take care of things everywhere, so in the end nothing went wrong.

This risky move has already seriously damaged our vitality.

Because He Ting and Lu Baiwei were asked to help take care of He Yunqi and Xiaoran, the family property was gathered together and most of it was taken to the countryside by Tang Jingchuan.

I just returned to Beijing and had to take care of things and ask for money everywhere to resume work.

The old man seldom has the interest to go shopping in the mall. He is always thinking about his grandson who is suffering in the countryside, and his great-grandsons and their wives. When he buys things, it is as if he is on the battlefield pointing out the mountains and rivers, and his fingers cannot stop moving.

This made life difficult for Wei Shuhua and Gu Min.

While the old man was being helped into the house by Tang Jingchuan, Wei Shuhua complained to He Zhenyuan.

"Zhen Yuan, I'm not stingy. Right now, the family hasn't recovered yet. Little Qi Ranran will be back soon, and He Ting Weiwei has three little ones. It's like there are five more mouths to feed at home."

Wei Shuhua shook her head helplessly: "Our old man, when he was happy, he thought it was the most glorious years before he went to the northwest."

"When we get into the mall, the guy who makes all the decisions is not allowed to talk to Minmin."

"It's a rare opportunity for him to go shopping, so we don't want to spoil his fun."

"We paid all the family's wages when we came back before the New Year, and I even used my own pocket money to pay for it."

Wei Shuhua discussed with him in a low voice: "Although we have resumed our jobs, Minmin has not found a job yet, and there are so many new people in the family. It is not good to restrict the old man with money. What do you think we should do next?"

"I don't know if He Tingweiwei has kept some of the savings book that I asked Captain Tang to bring to the countryside. When they come back, I'm thinking about taking some back to help with the urgent needs at home."

When Wei Shuhua mentioned the passbook, He Zhenyuan's face darkened.

"No matter how difficult it is for us, you are not allowed to mention a word about the passbook."

"A Ting and his wife helped He Huaminmin take care of little Qi Ranran, without a word of unwillingness. They asked Jingchuan to take the passbook, saying that the money was for their marriage. Not to mention that little Qi Ranran lived in his uncle's and aunt's house in the countryside for two years. With A Ting's wife giving birth to triplets for our He family, it would be inappropriate to mention the passbook."

"Don't you want money to have and raise a child?"

Wei Shuhua muttered quietly: "We don't need that much."

"I told you not to mention it."

Wei Shuhua's mention of the passbook angered He Zhenyuan, who immediately turned his face black and walked into the house carrying his things without saying a word.

He took his things and left, leaving Wei Shuhua behind in the jeep, crying out of anger.

She thought that if she just mentioned it, He Zhenyuan would embarrass her in front of his daughter-in-law.

Wei Shuhua's eyes were red with grievance: "Minmin, I said nothing about following him to the northwest to suffer."

“If you don’t manage a household, you won’t know how expensive firewood, rice, oil and salt are.”

"I really am. He gave me the cold shoulder."

Wei Shuhua cried angrily: "You haven't found a job yet, who am I doing this for?"

"Mom, don't be angry. Dad also feels that it would be embarrassing in front of Ting if he asked for the things he gave away."

Gu Min comforted her: "I will ask my parents for help with the job. If that doesn't work, I will learn how to do business. I went out to meet a friend the other day and heard that private business will be allowed soon."

"Can a living person be suffocated to death by urine?"

"Besides, A-Ting and his wife are going to college, and someone needs to take care of the child at home. The couple has been taking care of little Qi Ranran for me for two years. I have to help take care of the child whenever they need me."

Wei Shuhua thought about it and realized what to do with the triplets.

We can't just leave everything to the old man with disabled legs and feet.

Knowing that He Zhenyuan had a stubborn temper, Wei Shuhua didn't bother to argue with him and wiped away her tears.

"That's right. I just came back to work and I can't make ends meet. With the salary of me, your father, and He Hua, plus our old man's salary, how bad can our life be?"

She called Gu Min: "Come, let's move the things in first, and then I'll go back to my parents' house to think of a solution."

When He Ting's family in Beijing was looking forward to bringing his wife and children back, after the wedding banquet hosted by the Tang family for Tang Yunling and Zhou Yanfeng, He Ting and Lu Baiwei were ready to leave in two days.

Before leaving, Lu Baiwei felt that there was still one thing left to do.

Taking incense and candles, she went up the mountain with He Ting and came to Feng Shishi's tomb.

Unexpectedly, someone shared the same idea as her. In front of Feng Shishi's grave, she ran into her newly married cousin and Zhou Yanfeng together.

Tang Yunling had always been at odds with Feng Shishi. Now she was crying, lighting a candle and burning paper money while scolding Feng Shishi.

"You're just a fool, you know that, right?"

"I told you that Liu Cuifang is not a good person and you should not get involved with her, but you refused to listen."

"Look, if you had listened to me and Lingling earlier, why would you be lying here and unable to return to the capital?"

The more Tang Yunling thought about it, the sadder she became: "You are stupid and dumb, and you look like a vase, but you are quite smart in studying."

"I can't solve those math problems that are like twists, but you can."

"Tell me, it would be better for you to not get involved with Liu Cuifang and take the college entrance examination with us."

"Are you stupid? If you insist on running to the Red Flag Brigade next door, even nine oxen can't stop you."
