When Li Hongwei was on the phone, Liu Lanxiang was listening on the side. She felt relieved when she heard her mother-in-law Chen Xiaoying say that she could not lend money to Yang Xiaohui.
"I don't know what she's thinking all day. She even wants to work with her elder brother to build a mushroom greenhouse. She's crazy."
Li Hongwei thought for a moment and said, "No, I still have to go to the county town tomorrow and talk to Xiaoyu."
His daughter Li Yutong had the money in her hand. He was afraid that she would think she was rich and would be loose-handed. She would give the money carelessly just because Yang Xiaohui was her fourth aunt. What would he do then?
Once you give it to someone, it's like throwing meat buns at a dog. It's gone forever and you can never expect to get it back.
"Okay, I'll go tomorrow. I have something to discuss with my mother." Liu Lanxiang said.
It's about growing peppers in the village.
The couple always knew that their family was rich, but their daughter Li Yutong had never given them an exact number of how much savings the family had.
Just don’t say it.
They also asked, thinking that it was probably to the extent that they had no worries about food and drink, and there was no change at home. The house was still the same house, and they were used to living there, and were reluctant to tear it down and rebuild it.
If there is any difference, it is that she bought a new motorcycle. When she goes to the county town, it is much faster than riding a bicycle, and Liu Lanxiang can ride it herself.
Everyone in the village was very envious. He had made a lot of money and even bought a motorcycle.
Chen Xiaoying hung up the phone and couldn't help but sigh. Perhaps because she had made money, the Yang family's plan to build a mushroom greenhouse started two years earlier.
Li Yutong came out of the bathroom after washing her face and remembered something: "Grandma, about the car incident, the police still haven't responded?"
Chen Xiaoying just remembered this matter: "I was so busy that I forgot about it."
It's been more than two months since that incident. Xu Dadong was arrested and taken to police station. But that guy, who was called Big Head, got on a train that day and no one knew where he went.
Train tickets are not yet real-name-based and there is nowhere to find them.
"My aunt seems very anxious." said Li Yutong.
Her grandmother Chen Xiaoying was puzzled: "How do you know?"
Li Yutong told the truth: "My second aunt came to the school to find me, and wanted me to say something nice to you, asking you not to blame my eldest cousin. He also took the wrong path because he didn't have a house at an age and was anxious to get married. He already knows he was wrong."
Chen Xiaoying frowned: "I believe her lies."
The eldest daughter, Li Hongyan, is very cunning. If you don't interfere with her interests, she may help you and say a few nice words when she is in a good mood. But if you interfere with her interests, she will plot against her own parents and be very cold-blooded.
She was just like a beast. For example, the loan sharking that time forced her to divorce that old man Li Pingwang, and only then did she stop being a nuisance to her.
Li Yutong nodded: "I don't believe it either, but my second aunt said that my eldest aunt is very concerned about this matter and goes to the police station every few days."
Chen Xiaoying thought for a moment and said, "She probably isn't looking for the person who cheated Pengfei. She's looking for the money those two people hid."
On this side, her family played dumb and said that the money was cheated away by others and Zhao Pengfei didn't spend it. This indirectly meant that her money was cheated away by Xu Dadong and Datou, as if it had nothing to do with Zhao Pengfei anymore, so her family didn't want to return her money.
On the other hand, she actively went to the police station, trying to have her best play from both sides. Not only did the police not return the money, but she also wanted to keep the recovered money for herself.
How come her eldest daughter is so calculating?
Li Yutong laughed after hearing this: "My aunt is not that smart. She probably can't fool others, but she can fool her own people. Because her own people, like her relatives, are not on guard against her and don't think badly of her, so they can be fooled by her."
"But outsiders, once she opens her mouth, they already know who she is. They just respond to her casually, but they don't believe her at all in private."
Then her eldest aunt took advantage of this and led her family to cheat and defraud money.
Chen Xiaoying thought about it again: "I don't know where Xu Dadong hid the money."
The grandmother and granddaughter had analyzed the whole thing a long time ago. Xu Dadong should have taken at least two thousand yuan and hid it. It has been more than a month now, and he still refuses to reveal the truth. His mother Ma Xiufang is always targeting Li Hongli at home, asking Li Hongli to go back to her parents' home to pester her as their mother.
"Actually, none of this matters. People in the provincial capital are going to hold him accountable. Second Aunt just sits in our store and refuses to leave. There's nothing we can do." Li Yutong said.
Xu Dadong was very lucky. The first time he stole a car, he stole the car of the Provincial Water Conservancy Bureau. He dared to steal a government car. Wasn't this just offending others? The government directly issued an order to investigate and punish him severely.
Ma Xiufen had no other choice but to pester Li Hongli.
"I guess my second uncle should be back by now." Li Yutong said that it was strange that Xu Xiaodong hadn't come back yet after such a big thing happened to her brother.
Chen Xiaoying shook her head: "Who cares? We are all adults now. We should live our own lives. I can't control your Second Aunt so much."
When she insisted on marrying Xu Xiaodong, she was so angry that she, the second daughter, didn't consider her feelings as a mother at all.
"Grandma, think positively." This was the only way Li Yutong could comfort her.
Chen Xiaoying nodded: "You should also go to bed quickly, study hard, and don't worry about these things at home."
The college entrance examination is approaching, which is a major event in my granddaughter’s life.
Both the grandparents and the grandchildren knew what was going on. The next day, when Chen Xiaoying was about to go to the police station to inquire about the situation when the store was not busy, her second daughter, Li Hongli, came again with a big belly.
"Mom." She knew her mother was not happy to see her, so she called out with a forced smile.
Seeing that there were still customers eating in the restaurant, Chen Xiaoying took her out and said, "You are going to give birth in two or three months, and you are still running around like this. What will you do if something happens?"
"Don't you want to live anymore?"
This sounded unlucky, and Li Hongli felt unhappy: "Mom, why are you talking about me like this? Can't you say something nice?"
"I'm telling you the truth. Have you forgotten what the doctor said? Your stomach is related to your life. Don't take it lightly." Chen Xiaoying said with a frown.
Li Hongli was full of impatience. It was not because Xu Xiaodong came back that he insisted on getting her closer to her mother, saying that there is no overnight grudge between mother and daughter. She said she didn't want to come at all.
Is this your biological mother?
Treating her is almost like an enemy.
"It's okay, you can go back." Chen Xiaoying didn't want to give her a chance to speak, nor did she want to listen to her.
Li Hongli was very upset: "Mom, your son-in-law is back and wants to treat you to a meal at Kaiyuan Restaurant. Do you want to go?"
Chen Xiaoying was stunned. She had heard her eldest granddaughter say something like, "If someone is too attentive to you for no reason, he is either a traitor or a thief." This means that people who are too attentive to you for no reason must have bad intentions.
Especially she knew too well what kind of person her second son-in-law Xu Xiaodong was.
In his previous life, even when his mother Ma Xiufen was lying in bed and was dying, he was reluctant to spend the medical expenses and did not send her to the hospital. He let Ma Xiufen die at home before sending her to the hospital.
I just didn't want her to die at home because it was unlucky, so I cremated her directly in the hospital.
