Xie Meigui was utterly humiliated and flew into a rage. Her arrogant demeanor infuriated Pei Danfeng.
Pei Antong knew that Sheng Qing had humiliated Xie Meigui, and at the same time, she was warning herself not to get into trouble.
It's no use, and she's not qualified anyway.
Even if I'm not good enough, it's still better than going to the countryside and living a hard life.
A glint flashed in Gu Wanwan's eyes as she returned to the topic of rent, "So, are you going to rent the room or not? It's fifty yuan a month, with a minimum one-year lease. If the tenant moves out before the lease expires, the rent is non-refundable. If you damage even a single brick or item in the room, you'll have to pay double the rent."
Pei Danfeng gritted her teeth. Despite her daughter being rejected, she was still unwilling to give up on this good marriage. So she spent a lot of money and paid Gu Wanwan a year's rent, a total of six hundred yuan.
With this additional expense, her already meager savings shrank even further. Now, there's no more subsidy from Pei's adopted son, and her son and daughter-in-law keep their own earnings, often requiring her to subsidize them herself. Not only can her family not help her, but they also ask her for money.
This was the most exhausting period of her life.
Gu Wanwan quickly counted the money and stuffed it all into Fu Wanning's hands. "This is pocket money that your sister-in-law earned for you. Spend it however you like, and ask your sister-in-law for more when you're done."
Fu Wanning deeply understood the principle that one should not refuse a gift from an elder, and lent the money with utmost sincerity. "I, Fu Wanning, have fallen into a blessed nest. I have such a beautiful, kind, generous and magnanimous sister-in-law. With my sister-in-law, I am not afraid of any demons or monsters."
"Come on, let me take you shopping, and we'll also visit the Sheng family to broaden your horizons." The two women, sister-in-law and aunt, walked hand in hand, their deep affection evident at a glance.
"Sister-in-law, I'll go with you. I'll be your driver." Sheng Qing followed along eagerly, his sycophantic manner was simply unbearable to watch.
Watching them leave, Pei Danfeng grabbed her daughter and pulled her luggage to her room.
There are quite a few rooms downstairs, but the interior space is a bit small. However, it's more than enough for two people.
Pei Danfeng secretly breathed a sigh of relief. In any case, Xie Meigui had moved in. Since she couldn't bring down Sheng Qing with her schemes and tricks, she would use her charm and sincerity to win him over.
Gu Wanwan got into the car, glanced at Fu Jingchen who was currently accompanying the twins on a sea adventure, and then asked casually, "The big thing you mentioned, is it related to Brother Chen? It's not that his unwanted suitors have come after him."
Sheng Qing nodded and answered truthfully, "It's Gu Lizhu, the daughter of Commander Gu, a doctor in the military hospital. Everyone praises her for her superb medical skills and calls her a genius doctor. I suspect that's just her self-proclaimed title. Her medical skills are indeed decent, but they haven't reached the level of being extraordinary. She's not even as good as my sister-in-law by a fraction. She looks down on traditional Chinese medicine treatments and thinks that acupuncture and moxibustion are unorthodox methods."
"Now the person has been taken to a secret place by the Fu family for treatment. Our Fu family is really mysterious. I have often seen Old Master Fu since I was a child. I have no impression of Aunt Fu. After all, I haven't seen her for more than ten years. The last time I saw her was when I was three or four years old. She seemed to be injured and unconscious. It seems that no one else showed up. To be honest, I still don't know who the members of the Fu family are."
"The Fu family aunt is named Fu Qingning. Is this Fu Qingning the same person as the Fu Qingning from the Pei family? Or..."
They were having a great time chatting when, unbeknownst to them, they ran into Sheng Qing's godmother's daughter, who was out shopping.
