"When do you plan to come back? How much longer are you going to stay away? Are you not planning to come back at all?"
While driving, Liang Xunling called Li Qirui, who was away on a business trip, and immediately launched into a barrage of questions.
Li Qirui's magnetic and pleasant voice came from the other end of the phone.
"What's wrong? What happened?"
Liang Xunling began to complain, "Your father kicked me out of the Li family manor, and my parents don't plan to take me in either. If you don't come back soon, I might end up homeless."
Li Qirui paused for a moment, then calmly suggested, "Find a hotel to stay in first, and wait for me for a few more days. Once things are settled here, I'll go back."
Upon hearing this, Liang Xunling became instantly enraged, like a firecracker that had been set on fire.
"Wait, wait, wait! You always make me wait at home. I've had enough of being a stay-at-home wife who does nothing all day. I have to go out and work. You have to arrange a job for me at the Li family's headquarters!"
Since Liang Xunling married into the Li family, she has basically been a full-time housewife. Although her daily routine consists of shopping and having afternoon tea, she doesn't enjoy this comfortable life at all.
She was particularly envious of her second sister-in-law Liu Wanran and her third sister-in-law Zhong Jingyi, as they both had their own jobs, especially Zhong Jingyi, who now had full control over one of Li's subsidiaries.
Of the three daughters-in-law, Zhong Jingyi was the one who had the most respect in front of the old man and old woman of the Li family.
Moreover, after this incident, Liang Xunling finally understood—
It's not easy to ask others for money; it's better to have power and money in your own hands.
However, her request successfully made Li Qirui on the other end of the phone frown, looking somewhat troubled:
“Ah Ling, you need to pass the assessment to get into the head office. No one can just send someone in without the old man’s permission.”
After all, the old man still calls the shots in the Li family.
Ignoring Li Qirui's predicament, Liang Xunling threatened him stubbornly, "I don't care, if you can't arrange a job for me at head office, you might as well not come back!"
After saying that, Liang Xunling hung up the phone.
Her mood had reached its absolute limit, and she uncontrollably floored the accelerator, causing the car to speed along the highway.
As Liang Xunling was crossing an intersection, she was still angry and didn't notice the red light that suddenly appeared. She continued driving without slowing down at all.
Just as she was about to run a red light, a large red truck suddenly appeared in Liang Xunling's line of sight. Her eyes widened in horror, followed by a screeching sound of brakes, but it was too late...
On the other side, at the Li Family Manor.
Grandpa Li lay on a bamboo rocking chair, listening to Peking Opera while basking in the sun, enjoying a leisurely and pleasant time.
Xiao Xinyan was lying in a children's rocking chair next to the old man, listening to Peking Opera and basking in the sun with him.
This grandfather and grandson really hit it off; they both have a strong interest in traditional culture.
Under the influence of Grandpa Li, Xiao Yanbao has successfully fallen in love with writing calligraphy, listening to Peking Opera, and can even sing a few lines.
Her voice was sweet and childlike, with a soft and adorable quality.
At this very moment, the grandmother and grandson are listening to the Peking Opera "The Story of the Jade Bracelet," the melodious and moving singing filling their ears—
Back then, I used to be spoiled and willful, and even now, I don't remember the past.
This is also a lesson from God.
He taught me to let go of lingering resentment, refrain from being petulant, start anew, change my temperament, stop clinging to the past, turn back from the sea of suffering, and realize the cause of my misfortune as soon as possible...
"Grandma, you're living a pretty good life these days!"
Just as Xiao Xinyan was engrossed in Peking Opera, a familiar voice suddenly rang in her ears.
Xiao Xinyan slowly opened her eyes and saw an ugly-looking guy floating in front of her.
It was the same unlucky guy who had possessed Fourth Uncle Li Qichen before.
It seems even balder than before.
The little boy frowned in disgust, then heard the bald man start to speak like a peddler praising his own wares:
"Hurry up and thank me for getting rid of that annoying woman for you."
An annoying woman, it's like she's talking about an aunt.
Xiao Xinyan doesn't remember ever letting the bald man drive her aunt away!
That guy who acts on his own initiative is really annoying!
The little girl turned her head away haughtily, refusing to acknowledge it.
The bald man, however, persisted and floated back to the little boy, saying smugly:
"Grandma, are you still not satisfied? Don't you think that daughter hasn't been unlucky enough? Don't worry, that woman will be doubly unlucky today!"
"When I help you punish that woman severely, remember to help me out!"
What punishment?
Xiao Xinyan frowned, just about to ask the bald man a question, when it disappeared.
The little bundle of milk was left standing there, completely bewildered.
Grandpa Li noticed the changes in the little girl and reached out to pat her head, asking gently:
"Yanbao, what's wrong? Are you bored watching the opera with Grandpa?"
Xiao Xinyan snapped out of her reverie, quickly shook her head vigorously, and said in her childish voice, "Listening to opera with Grandpa is not boring at all, Yanyan likes listening to opera too!"
The little guy has good taste!
The old man of the Li family was immediately delighted and gently poked the little cub's soft, chubby cheek with his finger.
"How about Grandpa takes you to the theater to see a play? Seeing a live performance is even more amazing!"
