Mrs. Qian heard Mrs. Xu mention that Qian Jinling was staying in a five-star hotel. They went out to ask passers-by and found out that there was only one five-star hotel in the provincial capital, called the Sihai Hotel.
During the past few days, they forgot to ask for Qian Jinling's cell phone number. In the past, they always contacted her by calling the landline, so they couldn't contact Qian Jinling now.
The family had no choice but to resort to the stupid method of waiting in the hotel. They came out of the rental house, found out the location, and took a taxi directly to the Sihai Hotel.
When they arrived at the hotel entrance, the Qian family looked at the imposing building that was more than ten stories high, their mouths wide open.
Although the provincial capital is now more developed than other small cities, the buildings are still mainly four, five or six stories high. Giant buildings like this one with more than ten stories high are rare.
Moreover, compared with the dingy buildings in ordinary residential areas, the exterior decoration of the Sihai Hotel was so luxurious that the Qian family hesitated in front of the hotel for a long time and couldn't move.
Finally, the family mustered up enough courage to reach the hotel entrance. They were surprised to see a revolving glass door.
After following the example of others and entering the room, they felt a little dizzy standing in the magnificent lobby on the first floor. It was not until the hotel front desk asked them if they wanted to check in that they spoke hesitantly, saying that they were looking for someone and gave Qian Jinling's name.
Luxury hotels like this place a premium on protecting their guests' privacy. Seeing that they knew nothing about the other party except their name, their phone number, or the room they were staying in, they directly rejected the Qian family's request to inquire about the guest's information and had security kick them out.
The family was furious and felt that waiting here was not a solution, so they thought about going to the villa to make a scene. As soon as they left the house, before they could get a taxi, they saw Qian Jinling and her two daughters getting out of a car.
After getting off the car, several people carried large and small bags from the car. The smiles on their faces made the Qian family members dizzy.
Is this what Qian Jinling meant when she said her life was difficult and she could be kicked out at any time? She doesn't look like a bullied daughter-in-law at all; she's clearly the wealthy wife the Qian family used to think of.
Qian Jinling just got out of the driver's seat, right? Xu Jinfeng's car was black, so could this red car be Qian Jinling's own?
The Qian family felt they couldn't dwell on this matter; the more they thought about it, the angrier they became. Qian Jinling felt several resentful glances, and when she looked up, she saw her family standing in front of her left, which made her feel nervous, as if she had been caught doing something bad.
She subconsciously hid the delicate packaging bags she was carrying behind her, but how could she hide those things? Just such a small action gave the Qian family a sense of "there is no silver here, three hundred taels".
The Qian family members rushed forward angrily. Mrs. Qian bluntly asked, "Didn't you say you didn't have any money? What did you buy? Show it to me!"
Qian Jinling knew she was in the wrong, so she smiled awkwardly and replied, "I bought some shoes and some food for the kids. It's nothing fancy."
Old Madam Qian squinted her eyes at Qian Jinling and said, "Nothing good to see? I think these bags and boxes are pretty enough, so the things inside should be even better looking, right?
We're not stealing yours, so what are you afraid of? Your family is poor and has never seen the world, so why don't you give us some to open our eyes? "
Qian Jinling still had no intention of handing over the packaging bags. Qian Jincai, who was standing aside, was very unhappy and tried to grab them.
During the struggle with Qian Jinling, a shoe box slipped out of the packaging bag. Qian Longbin opened the box quickly and found a pair of exquisitely crafted women's leather shoes lying quietly inside. It was obvious that Qian Jinling bought them for him.
Qian Jinling and the two children tried to grab the box, but they couldn't get it from Qian Longbin. Qian Longbin took out an invoice from the shoebox. The price on it made him dumbfounded: "One thousand eighteen? Auntie, is this what you call having no money?
We only rented a house for a thousand yuan for several months, and you spent eighteen thousand on a pair of shoes and you're crying poor to us? Do you have the nerve to do that?
Qian Jinling was about to retort when her two daughters spoke first: "My mother is spending our own money, how does it bother you? She needs your approval to buy a pair of shoes?"
Qian Longbin responded indignantly, "How can it not be my business? She eats well, wears well, and lives in such a nice place, while we have to eat coarse food and live in a doghouse. And she thinks she's right? She's spent all her money. Will she still take care of my grandparents' retirement?"
The two little girls retorted sharply, "My mom is not their only child. Can't my uncle take care of your grandparents in their old age? And what do you do for a living? Your grandparents spend all their money on you, and you don't care about them when they are old?"
"Why should I care? Why should I care? My grandparents have a son and a daughter. How can it be my turn to take care of them in their old age?" Qian Longbin thought that the problems of the old couple of the Qian family had nothing to do with him.
Qian Jinling saw her two daughters quarreling with her nephew, so she stood up to defend her daughters: "You were raised by your grandparents, and almost all of their money was spent on you and your father. If you two don't take care of it, who will?
I don't think I owe you anything. Even for the kindness of raising me, I've already repaid you with the money and gifts I've sent home over the years. Even if I still have some money, I can't give it all to support my parents.
I have two children to support, and none of you have ever shown any understanding for me. What right do you have to question me now? I can spend my money however I want, and do I need to report it to you?"
Qian Jinling's words, when heard by the Qian family, meant that she was no longer going to take care of the Qian family's elderly couple's retirement. If she stopped giving them money, how would the family survive?
As their own interests were involved, the Qian family members all panicked and started to argue with Qian Jinling in front of the hotel. The things in the hands of Qian Jinling and her two children were scattered all over the floor. The invoices worth hundreds or even thousands of yuan hurt the nerves of the Qian family members.
Old Mrs. Qian started to use her skills of crying, making a fuss, and even threatening to commit suicide again. She sat down on the ground and started slapping her thigh and cursing, calling Qian Jinling an ungrateful person who lived a life of superiority and didn't care about the lives of her parents.
Old Mrs. Qian's disturbance soon attracted a lot of onlookers. Everyone pointed at Qian Jinling, making her face turn red and white. The two children were scared to tears by the scene and asked Qian Jinling to call her father on her cell phone.
However, Xu Jinfeng was already extremely dissatisfied with the Qian family, and now Qian Jinling didn't dare to let him deal with the affairs of his mother's family.
In the end, Qian Jinling directly called the hotel security and asked them to help drive the Qian family away on the grounds that she was a hotel guest and her personal safety was threatened.
The Qian family had never seen much of the world, and their previous encounters with the police had left them with psychological scars. Now, their hearts were pounding whenever they saw someone in uniform.
When they saw the security guard in uniform coming over, they were so scared that they stopped making trouble. The security guard didn't even have to say anything before the family ran away in a panic.
