Chapter 167: The Ultimate Double Standard
Grandma Qin was also amused by her husband's unexpected forcing of the food on her.
"That's better. An An, why don't you put it away quickly? There are very few people in the capital who can take advantage of your uncle, and you are probably the first one who can make him willingly take out his bank card."
"The second one, the second one." Du Desheng chuckled and hurriedly told his wife, "The first one is you."
Duanrao: “…” He felt like he was being fed dog food again.
Grandma Qin: “…” What a shameless old man!
"No need, Grandpa. I have my own money."
After returning to the Du family for a few months, in addition to basic pocket money, her parents, brothers and sisters would occasionally put money into her card under other pretexts. In addition, she had previously helped Li Zhaoyang's company and the mother and son of the Ye and Qiu families to tell fortunes, so they all gave her a considerable amount of thank-you money afterwards.
All in all, there is now a small eight-digit amount in her card.
Duanrao doesn't have any big desires in terms of material things, and she doesn't spend much on food, clothing, housing and transportation at home. If she doesn't spend this money recklessly, it will probably be enough to support her for a lifetime.
"I don't care how much money you have, it's all yours. This is a gift from your uncle. It was your uncle who invited you to be his guest. There's no reason for you to come here and spend your own money."
Grandma Qin also advised: "The cost of living in the capital is high, you should keep it for emergencies."
"Yes, yes, yes. Tomorrow you can take your grandmother Qin out for a stroll, do some shopping, do some physical therapy, and watch a movie. Don't worry, the money here is enough to buy a shopping mall."
Du Anrao: “???” Listen to me, listen to me, is what you said human language?
Du Yihan, who followed behind Du Anrao as an invisible man, watched helplessly as his sister was stuffed with a more important bank card before she could recover from the impact of the previous card.
I didn't know what to say for a moment, and subconsciously turned to look at Du Desheng. When our eyes met, I saw that the smile on his face faded, and he looked at me gloomily. Not to mention giving me a card, he didn't even have a good look on his face.
Du Yihan: “…” Okay, it seems that I was worrying too much. His little sister is very capable and she doesn’t need me to protect her. She has many people to support her. He can go to school with peace of mind tomorrow.
"Alright, alright, it's so late now, stop pushing the issue here. It's just a card, An An, put it away quickly, your uncle and I are going back to rest too."
Since the old lady said so, Du Anrao couldn't refuse.
When Du Desheng saw her receive the card, his expression improved a little, and he introduced her to the two of them, "This is our housekeeper Du Miao. If the family needs anything or needs anything, you can look for him."
As soon as Du Desheng finished speaking, a round-faced man in his early fifties with a smiling face stepped forward and called out respectfully, "Miss, I am the housekeeper Du Miao of the mansion. I usually live in the room at the entrance of the backyard. If you have any problems that you can't solve in the future, you can come to me."
Duanrao's thoughts were a little distracted when he heard what the two said.
[Du Miao? Shouldn't the housekeeper of my uncle's house be called Du Gui? Speaking of which, Miss Qiao, the nurse that my uncle had before, seems to be missing this time. Could it be that because Grandma Qin found them in advance, they were all driven away? ]
Duanrao thought about it carefully and felt that it was possible.
[That’s right. Miss Qiao was able to enter here by relying on the name of Grandma Qin’s descendant. Now that the real owner has appeared, these counterfeits will naturally have nowhere to hide. This is a good thing...]
In Du Anrao's opinion, the turmoil in Du Desheng's family started with the appearance of Qiao Yiting. The two old people have gone through so many ups and downs and finally reunited. They can live a stable life and cannot let these evil-minded jackals and tigers disrupt their lives.
When the Du Desheng couple heard Du Anrao's sigh, their eyes flickered slightly. They looked at each other inconspicuously, and immediately asked the butler and several trusted followers to take the two of them to rest.
As soon as the two siblings left, Grandma Qin frowned and said, "Have you dealt with all your problems? We can't let those blind guys bump into our precious granddaughter."
In fact, there were many people who coveted what happened to the two after their death, but all those who could cause trouble on Grandma Qin's side had already been sent to jail for imprisoning her before, and now only the people on Du Desheng's side were left.
How could Du Desheng not hear the worry and dissatisfaction in Grandma Qin's words? He quickly apologized, "It's my fault. I didn't find you before, so I couldn't get motivated to do anything. I know what these people are thinking, but I was too lazy to take care of them at that time."
"It's different now. You're back with me, and An An also said that we can live long and grow old together. Even if it's not for our little lucky star, for you, I will never let those guys run around you and An An again."
After the reunion, they were still in a sweet mood for many days. Qin Yanqing was still not used to someone's overly explicit and straightforward emotional expression. She glared at him angrily and said, "Just know what you are doing. An An was invited by us. If you really let her suffer any injustice in your territory, then you have been wasting these decades."
"Yes, yes, ma'am, you are right! Don't worry, I know what I am doing."
Since Du Desheng had said so, Qin Yanqing didn't know what to say.
The day after Duanrao arrived in City B, there was a massive drop in temperature. Although Qin Yanqing's health was much better than before, for the sake of recovery, it was not recommended that he go out casually.
Du Anrao stayed in the room with Qin Yanqing for several days, drinking tea, listening to music, playing cards and chess with her every day.
Du Anrao was used to staying at home in the mountains, so he didn't think it was a big deal. But Qin Yanqing couldn't stand it anymore. He thought it was a big deal for a young man to sit at home with an old man like him every day, so he drove him out to play.
It just so happened that her second cousin from her uncle's family had a weekend off, so he asked her if she wanted to go out and play, and he could accompany her and act as a tour guide the whole time.
Du Anrao remembered that he had not yet prepared a wedding gift for Du Desheng and his wife, so he agreed, took all the small cards he had on him, and ran happily to meet his second cousin.
The place the two agreed to meet was at Jiangyu Plaza, which was almost bombed before. This shopping mall was not far from where Du Desheng lived, and Du Anrao arrived in ten minutes by car.
On the contrary, Jiang Younian lived farther away and was delayed longer on the road. When Duanrao arrived, he had been waiting at the door for half an hour.
"Sorry, sorry. I didn't expect that the road next door would be more congested than usual this weekend. I'm late. Did you wait for a long time?"
"No, no, I just got here. Let's go in first."
"Yes, yes, it's too cold outside, let's go in first." Jiang Younian said as he pulled Du Anrao inside, but he was stopped by the security guard at the door.
"What? We need to open a new membership?"
