Chapter 325 Can You Afford It?
Yingying Roasted Meat Shop.
Shen Yingying was squatting on the ground cleaning the dirt on the corner cabinet. Out of the corner of her eye, she seemed to catch a glimpse of a customer coming outside the shop. She quickly wiped her hands and stood up to greet them: "What would you like to order? They are all freshly slaughtered and cooked that day, so fresh..."
Shen Yingying was stunned for a moment before her face turned cold. "What are you doing here?"
The person standing outside the glass window was none other than Shen Ci's uncle Fu Kang.
Shen Yingying had long expected that the other party would find her shop, but when she actually saw the person, the anger in her heart still bubbled out.
"Hurry up and leave, don't delay my business!" Shen Yingying directly ordered them to leave.
Fu Kang smiled apologetically like a good man: "Aunt, I just came to ask you where Jingjing and the child went. I went to their house twice to look for them, but no one was there."
He never thought that Shen Jingjing would move away. She had lived in that house for more than 20 years. That was her home. How could she move away so easily?
Shen Yingying sneered at this: "How surprising! You're asking me this? Do you think I can tell you?"
"Don't be so angry. I am their uncle after all. Even if Fu Jun is gone, the child still has Fu's blood. Even if the bones are broken, the tendons are still connected, right?"
"Besides, I have no ill intentions. I won't hurt them, right?"
Shen Yingying listened to his hypocritical words expressionlessly, her sneer growing even wider. "Then tell me, why are you looking for Xingxing? If you're not going to harm him, then is there something good going on?"
Fu Kang felt a lump in his throat and didn't know how to explain his purpose.
Then Shen Yingying said sarcastically, "Alright, you don't have to hide it anymore. We already know that the old Fu family is going to be demolished. Aren't you just trying to get Xingxing to move his household account back so that you can have more people and share the money?"
"Why are you afraid to tell me this? Are you afraid that Xingxing will ask you for money?"
"No, no, no!" Fu Kang denied repeatedly: "How could that be? It's just that we haven't even come to a conclusion in our family on how to divide the money, but Xingxing will definitely get his share."
"What about Ah Ci?" Shen Yingying asked back, "Xingxing is your grandson, but Ah Ci doesn't recognize him, right? Regardless of Ah Ci's willingness or not, has your Fu family never considered letting Ah Ci transfer his household registration back so he can get a share of the relocation compensation?"
Shen Yingying trembled with anger when this matter was mentioned.
If the old couple of the Fu family had not said, "If the baby is a boy, they will agree to their marriage," my sister would not have had to raise the child alone, and Fu Jun would not have died in a confused state.
"His aunt, you really misunderstood us." Fu Kang explained helplessly: "Aci is a stubborn child. We can't even persuade Xingxing, so how can we dare to go to Aci?"
It all comes down to a bunch of reasons.
Shen Yingying was too lazy to listen.
"Don't ask, I don't know anything. How much money your Fu family gets from the demolition has nothing to do with my sister and the children, because they won't take your money at all."
After saying that, Shen Yingying picked up a fly swatter and deliberately fanned it in front of Fu Kang: "Don't stand here, it affects my business. Don't come here again in the future. I have a bad temper and it's easy to get angry!"
"His aunt..."
"Didn't you hear me telling you to leave? Do you have to chase you away?" He Bin suddenly walked out from behind and glared at Fu Kang angrily.
Seeing this, Fu Kang nodded angrily and turned away.
"What the hell!" He Bin spat, looked at Shen Yingying and asked, "Are you okay?"
Shen Yingying shook her head, took off her apron and put it around He Bin's neck: "You watch from the front for a while, I'll go to the back and call my sister to let her know. I thought the Fu family had quieted down after hearing nothing for a few days, but it turns out she's still worried about them."
Shen Jingjing had just finished an order when she received a call from her sister.
"You didn't say much to him, did you?"
"I didn't say anything. This old Fu family is really like a toad. They don't bite, but they make people feel uncomfortable. Ah Ci was very wise to take you away. Otherwise, there would be no end to it."
"Okay, I get it. Xingxing won't be affected much now that she's in Longcheng. It'll just be hard for you guys to deal with them."
"These are all trivial matters. But have you told Aci about secretly going out to work?"
Shen Jingjing only told this to her sister secretly.
"No, she doesn't come back often after school started. I told her she would definitely not agree, but after working here for a few days, I think it's pretty good. It's more comfortable than staying at home."
"I can understand you, because we two sisters are the same. We can't sit still, and we're not too old to walk anymore. If we don't find something to do, we'll get sick sooner or later."
The two sisters didn't talk much. After hanging up the phone, Shen Jingjing walked out of the kitchen. Seeing this, Sister Min waved at her and raised her chin towards the floor-to-ceiling window in the living room.
The guest was on the phone and motioned her to be quiet and wait for a moment.
"My Yoda is a purebred Maltese. Don't you have a Bichon Frise at home? He'd be perfect for company!"
"Oh, I'm pregnant now, aren't I? My mother-in-law won't let me keep a cat. I just gave away two cats last week. You know how overbearing my mother-in-law is."
"Okay, okay, I'll ask someone else. Worst case scenario, I can just sell it online. I just thought of asking you because it's too much trouble."
Judging from the hostess's words, is she planning to give the dog away? Or sell it if she can't give it away?
Shen Jingjing's gaze fell on the sofa, where a cute white puppy was lying, its black eyes particularly bright.
It looked like a very expensive breed. Shen Jingjing didn’t understand, but she liked small animals very much.
"Cleaned up, right?"
The hostess hung up the phone and turned back to say, "Okay, then you can go. I've already paid on the platform. Remember to take the trash down."
Sister Min smiled and nodded when she heard this: "Okay, then we'll leave first. I wish you a happy life!"
But Shen Jingjing suddenly looked at the hostess and asked, "Excuse me, ma'am, are you planning not to keep this puppy anymore?"
The hostess was fiddling with her phone with her head down. Upon hearing this, she couldn't help but look up at Shen Jingjing. After blinking, she asked, "Does it have anything to do with you?"
"Don't get me wrong. From what I heard on the phone just now, it seemed like you wanted to give the dog away. If no one wants it, can you sell it to me? I want to keep it!"
Shen Jingjing's tone was particularly sincere. She really wanted to raise a dog. Having a dog at home would help relieve boredom. She liked small animals very much, and the hotel where she worked before was also a pet-friendly hotel.
As a result, the other party listened to Shen Jingjing's words as if they had heard something funny: "Sister, do you know how much a pure-blooded Maltese costs? Do you want to raise one? Can you afford it?"
