Lin Yu frowned.
You know, Tian Xiao'e went to the market to buy free-range eggs that morning, but the old lady didn't even look at them.
The old lady couldn't wait to kiss her grandson who came empty-handed.
The difference in their attitudes towards their granddaughter and grandson is like night and day. This alone speaks volumes!
This old lady clearly favors boys over girls!
However, Lin Fang and her son seemed to have gotten used to it and didn't care.
Yang Guiyun, however, glanced at Lin Fang and her daughter and said, "Oh, didn't you live in a big villa? What are you doing here today? Trying to covet our Tian family's real estate? Have you no shame? Do you even have a share?"
Yang Guiyun was so angry when she went back yesterday that she couldn't sleep at night. She was just waiting for the clan meeting today to humiliate the mother and daughter.
Tian Xiao'e couldn't hold back any longer, "Auntie, what nonsense are you talking about? Don't my sister and I have the surname Tian?"
"You and your sister?" Yang Guiyun chuckled. "Two brats, so what if they're surnamed Tian? Aren't they still a money-losing burden? In the future, they'll be like water spilled from a bowl!"
"You!" Tian Xiao'e was furious.
At this moment, the old lady suddenly spoke up, "Guiyun, what's the deal with Lin Fang and the others living in a big villa?"
Yang Guiyun snorted and recounted what had happened yesterday.
“That villa doesn’t belong to them. Lin Fang’s nephew borrowed it from someone else. He’s just staying there temporarily!” Yang Guiyun explained.
Lin Fang explained yesterday, and she naturally believed it. Otherwise, how could Lin Fang's family really afford a house worth 50 million?
The old lady's eyes lit up, and she looked at Lin Yu with a smile. "Lin Fang, is this your nephew? Tsk tsk, he really is a handsome young man!"
Lin Fang was flattered and quickly said, "Grandma, you flatter me!"
As Lin Fang spoke, she looked at Lin Yu and said, "Yu'er, this is Xiao'e's grandmother!"
Lin Yu didn't particularly like the old lady, but out of respect for Lin Fang, he still greeted her, "Hello, old lady!"
"How dare you! You call me 'old lady'?"
"You have absolutely no manners!"
"Kneel down and apologize to Grandma right now!"
"Yes, let's kowtow!"
The Tian family members started shouting.
Lin Yu's brows furrowed immediately.
What the hell? You want him to kowtow to an old lady?
"I've never even kowtowed to my own grandmother, yet I'd kowtow to you, someone with a different surname? Do you think your mere Tian family can accept that?"
Lin Yu's eyes widened, and his aura suddenly burst forth.
The entire Tian family felt their breath catch in their throats and almost collapsed to the ground.
This young man is absolutely terrifying!
"What do you want? How dare you cause trouble for my Tian family?"
"Go grab a hoe and kill this kid!"
The Tian family was also enraged. An outsider came to their doorstep to act tough. Was he looking for death?
"Enough!"
At this moment, the old lady suddenly spoke up.
Despite her age, she is not senile at all.
This young man must be quite remarkable to have a friend who owns a villa worth 50 million.
At least none of the descendants of the Tian family could do that.
How can you afford to mess with someone like that!
On the contrary, if we can cultivate a relationship with them, it will be of immense benefit to the Tian family!
Thinking of this, she smiled and said to Lin Yu, "Little Lin, the moment Grandma saw you, she knew you were a good child. Stay for dinner later! Grandma made these zongzi by hand, you can have a taste!"
"Oh, Grandma! You're too kind!" Lin Fang was slightly excited because the old lady had always been very indifferent to their family, and this unusual behavior really surprised her.
Lin Yu, however, seemed to have figured it out.
Unsolicited kindness is always suspicious; someone is either a crook or a thief!
He said calmly, "Grandma, today is your Tian family's clan gathering, so I won't go in. But if there's anything you need, please feel free to speak your mind!"
The old lady was taken aback, not expecting this young man to be so perceptive. She smiled and nodded, saying, "Alright, then I'll get straight to the point!"
The old lady first glanced at her eldest grandson, and then said, "Isn't this your younger brother Xiaojun? He's getting married soon, but we haven't bought a wedding house yet! Our old house isn't grand enough for his wedding, so Grandma was thinking, could we borrow your villa to hold a wedding for your brother?"
Lin Yu was slightly taken aback. He hadn't expected the old lady to have this in mind.
Yang Guiyun's family was also stunned. "That's right! How come they didn't think of that!"
If we could hold the wedding in that big villa, that would be a real honor for our ancestors!
"Right, right, right! I almost forgot!"
Yang Guiyun quickly changed her tune, grabbed Lin Fang's hand, and said in a fawning tone, "Lin Fang, we're cousins, just like sisters! Look, we're all family. Anyway, the villa is in your hands now, so why don't you let our Xiaojun use it for a bit? It's just a wedding, it'll be over in a day or two!"
“Yes, Auntie, it’ll only take half a day!” Xiao Jun chimed in. “Of course, we won’t use it for free. I’ll give you two thousand yuan afterwards!”
"Oh, two thousand yuan? I don't need it. Renting a hotel doesn't cost that much!"
"Exactly, a wedding can cost less than two thousand!"
"Two hundred yuan is just a token!"
Everyone offered their advice.
Lin Fang hadn't even said anything, and Lin Yu hadn't said whether he'd lend it or not, yet these people were complaining that they'd given too much, as if the villa didn't cost them anything.
This left Lin Fang feeling incredibly embarrassed. She knew the Tian family was shameless, but she hadn't expected them to be this shameless.
Before she could even speak, Tian Xiao'e couldn't hold back any longer, "Have you no shame? That villa belongs to my brother Lin Yu's friend. He lent it to us so we could help look after the house. What are you thinking? You want to hold a wedding there? Someone's worth half a billion yuan, and you're using that house for your wedding? Aren't you afraid of shortening your lifespan?"
These harsh words immediately brought the Tian family back to reality.
In fact, they knew what was going on.
But they don't think it's shameless; on the contrary, they think that if they can get such an advantage, that's a skill!
"Xiao'e, isn't it going too far to talk like that?"
"Lin Yu hasn't even said anything yet, why are you making a scene?"
"You little brat, stay out of the way!"
The crowd immediately began to rebuke them.
The old lady looked at Lin Fang and said with a smile, "Lin Fang! We're all real relatives. You should discuss it with your nephew! Oh, by the way, the notice for the high-speed rail relocation is coming down soon. When your father was alive, he bought most of this land, and as long as you're a descendant of the Tian family, you'll all have a share in the future, don't you think?"
Lin Fang was stunned. Her heart skipped a beat. From what the old lady was saying... their family was also entitled to a share of the relocation compensation?
