Chapter 348 Gold Digger 21
On the contrary, the big boss's business inexplicably started to run into problems. His company was investigated for tax evasion, and the food he produced was found to contain seriously excessive levels of carcinogens. Unsurprisingly, he went bankrupt not long after.
The news quickly spread throughout the industry.
At first, everyone said: "They dare to mess with anyone who doesn't know their place."
Later it became: That's Master Ning! She must have used some kind of magic to make that Zhang suffer the consequences of his own actions.
Anyway, the rumors about him became more and more legendary, and Master Ning was almost infinitely close to being a god.
Therefore, when she learned that her husband was going to open a restaurant in Beijing, someone took the initiative to sell Yu Ruidong a prime storefront. The three-story building, totaling over 1,000 square meters, was very popular. With Yu Ruidong's excellent cooking skills and the support of Ning Yan's customers, the business was booming.
In addition, Yu Ruidong also hired people to make and sell braised food, opening seven braised food shops in Beijing alone.
You can imagine how much money they made.
Therefore, he respected Master Qian even more. He would bring a lot of gifts to visit him during holidays, and would also go over to take a look whenever he had free time. Master Qian would fix things when they were broken, and he would also replenish the food supplies and clothes for the chef in his house all year round on time.
Yu Ruidong wanted to invite his master to live with them, but Master Qian refused. He was over seventy years old and didn't want to go to his son's or daughter's homes, let alone his apprentice.
However, he understood his disciple's feelings and was very glad that he had taken on such a close disciple.
...
"Have you seen Mom and Dad?"
Yu Ruidong stood in the crowd, scanning around, and finally spotted his parents carrying large and small bags.
"I see it!" he exclaimed, raising his hand high and shouting, "Mom and Dad, over here!"
The two elderly people finally squeezed out of the crowd. Yu Ruidong helped them take the things from their hands and complained, "I told you, we don't need anything at home. You just need to come. It's tiring to bring so much stuff."
Yu's mother smiled at her son, "These are all good things I got from my hometown. I brought them here especially for you. Yan Yan is pregnant, so she might want to eat things from home."
Ning Yan smiled and thanked her, "Mom is so thoughtful. It's just that Dad and you have worked so hard."
It was the end of the year, and Mr. Yu's company gave him a two-week holiday. Just then, he learned that his daughter-in-law was pregnant. This was the first time the old couple had left their small county town and come to Beijing, where their son and daughter-in-law lived.
"There are so many people at this station, it's making me dizzy."
"This train is conveniently located near our home, saving you the trouble of changing trains."
I'll buy you plane tickets next time I go home; that's faster. We can just get off the train in the provincial capital and then take another bus back to the county.
"No, plane tickets are too expensive. Taking the train is fine."
Yu's mother still couldn't bear to part with the money, even though her daughter-in-law was giving the family more and more money every year.
After getting the two elderly people into the car, Yu Ruidong got into the driver's seat and drove towards the villa.
"I heard you all bought cars. This is it. It looks impressive. How much did it cost?"
“Over 1.7 million. This car belongs to your daughter-in-law. I also have one that costs about the same.”
Yu's mother's jaw almost dropped to the ground. A car worth over a million yuan, how much money have these two made in the past few years?
Her son is incredibly lucky; he spotted his daughter-in-law's potential at first glance. Doesn't she know how capable her own son is?
He's all strength and all he knows is hard work. If it weren't for his daughter-in-law's intelligence, he would never have earned a million in his life!
Fortunately, they didn't stop their son from contributing to his wife's life, otherwise such a good daughter-in-law would definitely have been given to someone else.
The car soon pulled into the young couple's home. "Mom, this is our house. There are rooms on all three floors. Which one would you like to stay in?"
"Let's go to the second floor, it's bright there."
"That's perfect. I've already had the housekeeper prepare the master bedroom on the second floor. I'll have Rui Dong show you around. If you're not satisfied, we can change it."
"Okay, okay, you sit down and rest, we'll go upstairs ourselves."
What are Yu's parents dissatisfied with? The courtyard house they lived in back in their hometown was already big enough, but it was still much smaller than their son's house.
Unable to contain herself any longer, Yu's mother pulled her son aside and asked, "What does your wife do? Why is she so good at making money?"
"Mom, she earned 60 million yuan this year from selling the copyrights of two books. She usually charges at least seven figures for doing feng shui consultations."
A few days ago, a top tycoon from Beijing asked her to find a burial site for him.
They spend eight figures at a time.
Seriously, if my wife hadn't been bored and started writing books to pass the time, she could have made more money than she could ever spend just by doing feng shui consultations.
Mr. and Mrs. Yu: ...
This daughter-in-law is amazing! She earned so much money just by writing a book. How is she so capable?
Actually, Ning Yan's book shouldn't have sold for such a high price. A book with only 1.7 million words isn't worth that much at all. But what can she do when she holds shares in that entertainment company?
Do you think they would dare not pay more for a book that's practically owned by someone else?
Of course, the premium is limited, otherwise the shareholders wouldn't have agreed.
The two elders were finally relieved after their visit, and the family of four happily celebrated the New Year.
After the Lunar New Year, on the eighth day of the new year, Yu's father went back to his hometown to continue earning that meager living. Yu's mother stayed behind to take care of her pregnant daughter-in-law. In fact, Ning Yan didn't need her care at all; the family employed several people. Besides, she was in excellent health. When clients asked her to help with feng shui, she could even hike up mountains.
In the autumn, their child was born, a beautiful baby girl. She had big, beautiful eyes, long eyelashes, and two lovely dimples. Her smile was so charming that it could melt anyone's heart.
"I've never seen a baby who's just a month old and is so beautiful."
Yu Ruidong said smugly, "Then my wife has satisfied you now, hasn't she? My wife is really amazing!"
Yu's mother glared at her son, annoyed. It was a good thing that the young couple had a good relationship, but it wasn't good for them to show off their affection in front of her every day.
Yu's father chuckled, "My daughter-in-law is beautiful and smart, so the children she gives birth to will definitely take after her."
"We only had this one child, and she's your only granddaughter!"
"What? You're not having any more children? I thought I'd be able to hold my beautiful little grandson!"
When this topic came up, Yu Ruidong immediately became serious. "Mom, childbirth is too painful. The day Yan Yan gave birth to your granddaughter, I was so worried that I almost couldn't hold on. So I don't want her to have another child."
Thinking back to the pain she felt when giving birth to her son, Yu's mother didn't feel any remorse. After all, she had one child, and as long as someone could inherit the family property, that was fine.
Mr. Yu was a little awkward for a while, but he didn't openly object. It wasn't that his daughter-in-law didn't want to have more children, but that his son didn't want to. After returning home and working for a while, he put the matter out of his mind.
At the end of the year, I received a call from Yin Yi, who said that her university alumni were having a reunion and asked her to bring her family to attend.
Thank you Lily for the 500 Qidian Coins!
