Chapter 185 You can't keep it all to yourself!
“Our elders are not very understanding. They can’t just give away so many places like that. They have to calculate it according to the contract price.” Although Mr. and Mrs. Song do not live in Changqing Village for most of the year, they do keep up with the village’s developments.
Giving away land for people to grow for free sounds ridiculous.
If it weren't for Granny Zhang calling them that very night, they wouldn't have known that Grandma Song had given away her land.
Their family doesn't own much land, but it adds up to several acres.
They were so worried about Song Yuyao studying abroad that their hair turned white.
We're short of money right now, how can we just give this place away for free?
"Changqing Village has a lot of tourists now, so the price of the land should go up a bit too, right?" Song's mother asked tentatively.
Yan Sui shook her head, "The price hasn't been set yet. I'll sign the contract with Grandma Song."
The house and land are all under Grandma Song's name, so even if money is given, it won't go to Song Yuxia's parents.
Many people from Changqing Village work outside the village. Some of them are just working elsewhere, while others, like Mr. and Mrs. Song, have moved their household registration away.
Their household registration is no longer in Changqing Village, so the land allocated by the village is naturally not theirs.
Mrs. Song looked displeased. "What does an old woman like her know? Of course she'll let you fool her. Let's just sign the contract today and we'll feel at ease once we receive the money."
Yan Sui looked up and said, "Then call Grandma Song and Yuxia over, and we can sign now."
Mr. and Mrs. Song exchanged a glance, surprised that Yan Sui would agree so readily.
They rushed home to call for help, but since they hadn't received the money, they were always worried that Yan Sui would back out.
However, as soon as they brought it up, Grandma Song refused.
“As I said before, I’m giving this place to Yan Suizhong. If she’s worried that I might go back on my word, I can sign a contract with her.”
Song's mother was so angry that her heart ached and she was filled with hatred.
"Mom, we don't have much land, but it adds up to five mu! Do you know how much five mu of land is worth? It's at least 300,000 yuan!"
Who would push money away like that!
Grandma Song turned her face away. "You sold your daughter before. In my heart, you are no longer my son. The house and land are what I left to Yuxia. Whether you sell them or give them away is none of your business."
Mr. and Mrs. Song's expressions both changed.
"Mom, Yuxia is your granddaughter, but what about our Yuyao? Isn't she your granddaughter too?"
Grandma Song snorted, "She has parents who love her, unlike my Yuxia, who clearly has parents but is treated like an orphan."
Song's mother gritted her teeth inwardly, "It's not that we didn't think about bringing her to live in the city, but she didn't want to! She insisted on staying in the village, what could we do? If she were as ambitious as Yuyao, I would sell everything I own to send her abroad to study!"
Before she could finish speaking, a loud bang was heard as Grandma Song smashed the cup in her hand.
Song's mother screamed in fright and hid behind Song's father.
Grandma Song stared at them with a gloomy face.
"How dare you say such a thing? How much money have you spent on Yuxia? Has she ever attended tutoring classes, extracurricular activities, or an international school? Have you ever cared about anything she ate or wore since she was little? You've never done anything for her, so how dare you say such things!"
Feeling guilty, Song's mother retorted, "That's all her own fault. If she hadn't insisted on staying in Changqing Village, would I have let her drop out of school?"
"Get out!" Grandma Song roared. "All of you, get out of here!"
Since their goal was not achieved, Mr. and Mrs. Song would naturally not give up easily.
They were about to say a few more words of advice when Song Yuxia returned unexpectedly.
She went crazy, grabbed a broom and started swinging it at them.
While dealing with her, Song's father also had to protect Song's mother, and he was hit several times in the chaos.
Song Yuxia wouldn't listen to anything anyone said and just charged forward on instinct.
It wasn't until Yan Sui arrived that she was brought under control.
"You unfilial daughter! You unfilial daughter!" Song's father pointed at Song Yuxia and cursed loudly.
Upon hearing his voice, Song Yuxia moved her hand, intending to grab the broom again, but Yan Sui pressed her down.
"I'm here to deliver the contract. Let's sign it first."
Grandma Song immediately stood up. "No way! We agreed it was free, how can you charge me!"
Yan Sui quickly took her hand and helped her sit down.
“Grandma Song, it’s not just you, it’s the same for all the other villagers. I’ve taken your land for nothing, which will affect my uncle’s reputation.”
Yan Shunzhong is in a position where countless people are watching him.
Not only does he need to be careful, but Yan Sui, as a member of the Yan family, also needs to be careful not to give anyone a handle to use against her.
"Sister Yuxia, please take a look at the contract for Grandma Song and sign it first."
Song's mother's eyebrows twitched slightly, and her anger instantly vanished.
She smiled and urged Song Yuxia to sign the contract.
Yan Sui squeezed Song Yuxia's palm, hinting that she should sign the contract first.
After a moment's hesitation, Song Yuxia persuaded her grandmother to sign the contract.
Song's mother leaned over to take a look, and sure enough, Yan Sui had added 500 yuan to the previous price, revealing a satisfied smile.
As soon as the contract was signed, she grinned, as if she already had the money.
"The money will be transferred by the finance department in the next couple of days. Remember to check it." Yan Sui patted her shoulder. "I know Sister Yuxia is very capable, but Grandma Song is getting old, and we need to keep some money at home."
Song Yuxia suddenly realized that she seemed to understand Yan Sui's intention.
She couldn't help but laugh, laughing even more happily than Song's mother.
"I understand. Then I'll accept the money without hesitation."
Yan Sui: "It's what you deserve anyway. I still have a few contracts to sign, so I'll be leaving now."
Song Yuxia saw her off at the door, and when she turned around, she saw Song's mother walking towards her and affectionately taking her hand.
“Yuxia, this money is related to your sister’s future, you can’t keep it all to yourself.”
Seeing her anxious expression, Song Yuxia coldly withdrew her hand.
"What does her future have to do with me?"
Mr. Song angrily retorted, "She's your sister, of course she's related to you!"
The angrier they got, the happier Song Yuxia felt.
So this is what it feels like to hold money in your hand.
"Then keep thinking about it. The money is in my hands, and I won't give you a single penny."
Song's mother immediately turned hostile and raised her hand high to slap her across the face.
Song Yuxia reacted quickly, intercepting her hand in mid-air with a cold and sharp gaze.
"Do you think I'm still that stupid idiot who would just stand there and let you hit me? This is my house, I paid for this house, and you're hitting me on my own turf? Do you think I'm dead?"
Song's mother was stunned by her gaze. When Song Yuxia pushed her away, she staggered a few times and almost fell.
"you--"
"Get out! You're not welcome here! No matter how much money I make in the future, I'd rather donate it all than let you benefit from it."
Mr. and Mrs. Song stared at her in disbelief, seemingly unable to understand why their daughter harbored such deep hatred for them.
Song Yuxia turned her face away indifferently. Her kinship with her parents was unbreakable, and so it would not be.
The more they looked down on her, the more determined she became to live a good life.
