Chapter 385 Fortunately, you are an only child
Villas with gardens are very common, but those with swimming pools are rare, at least in City T, where they are a scarce resource.
My father obviously heard our conversation. Xiao Shiqiu and I sang the same tune, which made him feel embarrassed. He couldn't help but complain to my mother in a low voice.
"Look at what you've done. You've made our daughter so angry, and our son-in-law also thinks we don't take Mengmeng seriously.
Hurry up and ask your niece to vacate the room!"
He turned to us and said with a friendly face, "Mengmeng, stay at home tonight and leave tomorrow. Daddy will ask Sisi to vacate your room."
But my mother couldn't help but say, "They're only staying for one night. It's too much trouble for Sisi to move rooms."
My father's face was gloomy. "My daughter has to suffer injustice and make room for others in her own home? She shouldn't have been allowed to live here in the first place! If you're staying here for a fee, you should treat it like a guest."
Seeing that my mother was still unwilling to let Deng Sisi change rooms, Xiao Shiqiu shook his head and said, "I've seen many people favoring illegitimate children, but this is the first time I've seen her favoring a relative's child.
Mengmeng, luckily you are an only child, so I don’t have to worry about our child being mistreated in the future.”
These words made my mother's face turn pale. She gritted her teeth and asked Deng Sisi to move to the ground.
I didn't hear what my mother said to Deng Sisi, but looking at her tearful eyes, I knew that she must have cried with my mother.
When she was carrying the things to the second floor, she passed by me and gave me a resentful look, as if she wanted to bite me to death.
I smiled at her generously. I just liked the way she looked like she couldn't stand me but couldn't get rid of me.
I followed up behind her, saying, "Remember to put back those things you piled in the guest room."
Deng Sisi paused and went downstairs without saying a word.
"Mengmeng, can't you pack your own things? Why do you let your sister help you move?" My mother tried to keep her voice gentle because Xiao Shiqiu was present.
"Mom, you taught me since I was little to put things back where they belonged.
I wasn't the one who moved down there in the first place. She moved my things, and now she's putting them back where they belonged. Is there anything wrong with that?"
My mother was furious, and before she could refute, Xiao Shiqiu's gentle voice rang out: "Aunt, I have someone book a restaurant nearby. I will treat you and uncle to a simple meal tonight.
You two don't have to drive, you can just take my car."
My dad agreed immediately: "Okay, it's true that we're not well prepared at home today, but how are you going to arrange for the people who came with you?"
Xiao Shiqiu smiled, "It's okay, they will handle it themselves, don't worry about it.
My car is parked inside the complex, let’s go now.”
My dad pulled my mom along, ready to follow with a big smile on his face, but my mom shook him off, "Sisi is still moving things, I'll go get her."
Xiao Shiqiu turned around, a little puzzled. "We're just having a family dinner, but we still need to invite relatives? I've only booked four seats at the Imperial Banquet Hall. Mengmeng, do you think we should go somewhere else?"
He looked at me, and I deliberately said in a coquettish manner, "I just want to eat their first-class Buddha Jumps Over the Wall. Didn't you ask them to stew it?"
Yuyantang is a state-class private restaurant with chain stores in many cities across China.
It is a high-end chain restaurant that takes a boutique approach from dishes to decoration and service.
Seats in his restaurant need to be reserved, and many dishes have to be ordered in advance according to the number of people. Obviously, some dishes will not be prepared in time if seats are added at the last minute.
My dad, of course, knew the restaurant's rules and quickly said, "Don't change the order now. Aunt Wang is at home, so Sisi won't go hungry."
