Jiang Yule asked tentatively, "Wanshu, you didn't tell your dad that you bought a house, did you?"
"Yes, I told her before. My dad asked me if I had enough money, but she only knew that I bought one." Meng Wanshu said, not knowing why Jiang Yule asked this.
Jiang and Le were silent, thinking about how to talk about this matter in a more tactful way...
"Well, Wanshu, I'm not making malicious assumptions about others, but you see, your stepmother is not a good person to begin with. It's undeniable that she married your father because she really wanted to live a stable life, but I think it's more or less because of your family's good conditions. Now that you have a child... What if it's a son..."
Jiang Yule paused for a moment and said, "Your father is a soft-hearted person. Your family's property belongs to her. Now that she knows that you bought a house..."
Jiang Yule stopped talking. Meng Wanshu also heard something from these words and frowned in thought. This matter was indeed sudden. Before, she was afraid that Kang Yan would be bullied by her, so she never brought her and Kang Yan together. She would only let Kang Yan look for her when there was a package or there was a benefit. But now, she asked Kang Yan to come to Beijing to ask her for tutoring. If what Yule said was true, wouldn't Kang Yan have to live in her house when he came to Beijing!
Today it’s Kang Yan, and tomorrow Kang Yan is getting married. Her partner can’t afford to buy a house, so don’t both the couple have to live there?
What about the day after tomorrow? With her father and the unborn child around, it would be easier to invite the gods than to send them away!
As for whether his father would be soft-hearted? Isn't this a good proof right now! Before the child is even born, he can ask her father to tutor Kang Yan. What can't she do in the future!
Thinking of this, Meng Wanshu became more and more worried, and at the same time, a little disappointed...
She was disappointed that her father was so easily influenced by her stepmother and did not consider her feelings.
She was also disappointed in her family. The warmth and happiness she had thought of had now become so complicated and fragile. After her mother passed away, she could have lived with her father. If her father wanted to find a companion, she would not have stopped him. However, her father had found such a stepmother in the name of taking care of her. But now, because of this stepmother, her life has become even more miserable.
"Yu Le, what should I do?" Meng Wanshu asked helplessly.
Jiang Yule thought for a moment and said, "Wanshu, whether Kang Yan comes to Beijing or not is not the most important thing. The most important thing right now is not to let her live in your house. You must firmly tell your father that you have your own life and plans and cannot be disturbed by them."
"But..." Meng Wanshu hesitated, "Will my father be angry?"
"Your father's anger is his problem, not yours," Jiang Yule said. "You have to consider your future. You can't put yourself in a difficult position just because you're afraid of him getting angry. We can help Kang Yan if needed, but you're not Kang Yan's. Do you have to bear the cost of her food, clothing, shelter, and even her future? If Kang Yan is a good person, there's no problem. But do you think you can change her temper? Before you worry about whether your father will be angry, you have to take care of yourself first."
Meng Wanshu nodded, feeling more confident. She decided to follow Jiang Yule's advice and have a good talk with her father.
Because of this incident, the three of them had an unhappy dinner.
The next morning, Meng Wanshu and Li Sisi came to Meng Wanshu's house. They were no longer in the mood for the promised visit. Meng Wanshu sat in the living room of Jiang Yule's house and called her father.
He told him that he couldn't tutor Kang Yan, nor could he let her come to Beijing. Meng Wanshu's father felt very embarrassed and felt that Meng Wanshu didn't understand him.
Meng Wanshu's eyes were red as she held back her tears. "Dad, I'm not unfilial, nor am I inconsiderate of you, but I also have my own life and dreams, and school is about to start. How can I tutor Kang Yan?"
Hearing Meng Wanshu's slightly crying voice, Father Meng was silent for a while, and his tone softened.
"Wanshu, you've grown up and have your own ideas. Dad doesn't want to force you, but you have to consider Dad's feelings. Your aunt is pregnant now, and she wants Kang Yan to study with you. She's been busy at home every day. For Dad's sake, can you reconsider it? If it doesn't work, let her go to Beijing first. Dad will pay for her to get tutoring. Didn't you buy a house? Just give her a place to live, and Dad will take care of the rest."
Meng Wanshu didn't expect that her doting father would say this. She was extremely disappointed. "Dad, the house I bought is just a small one-bedroom house. How can it accommodate two people?"
Meng Wanshu raised her eyes and glanced at Jiang Yule, and replied to her father with the countermeasures they had discussed last night.
"You will also be living on campus in the future. If it doesn't work out, let her live with you and you live in the school. Dad will buy you a big house." Meng Wanshu's father was still partial to his own daughter. As for Kang Yan, he could pay for tutoring and buy her some things she would need in life, but he had never thought about big things like a house.
"Dad! Are you still my real dad?"
"Why isn't he your biological father?" Father Meng said, and suddenly lowered his voice and said, "Wanshu, just feel sorry for your father. Your aunt is really making me sick. Just agree to this matter, and you don't have to worry about him when she passes away!"
"How is that possible? You let me tutor her this time, but who knows what I can do next time. Who knows, if something happens to your baby, there will be no place for me in the house!" Meng Wanshu complained sourly. As soon as she finished speaking, the voice on the other end of the phone suddenly got louder. Then he lowered his voice and said, "Your father has saved it for you. The passbook is in your name. No one can withdraw it except you. It's all a pretense for you. Your aunt doesn't know. When I visit you later, Dad will give it to you."
