After Mu Shixiao left, the phone rang. It was his mother, Mi Chun. He rubbed his brows tiredly and answered the phone, "Mom."
"Well, it's done. Okay, then you should plug the gap as soon as possible. Don't let this happen again. I still feel sorry for my second brother. If my second sister-in-law gets into trouble because of this, I will never be able to rest in peace for the rest of my life."
"Well, I'm going to the studio now and won't be back."
Mu Shixiao hung up the phone and got in the car. He didn't notice that there was a person standing not far behind him, hiding stealthily. After his car drove away, the person took out his phone, quickly dialed a number, and said, "Dad, I heard something today..."
…………………………
The Yang family moved from other places and had no relatives in Jinjing, so when Yang's father celebrated his birthday, the whole family usually had a meal together. Last year, Yang Shushu had just gotten married, and Mu Shicang didn't allow him to go out casually. She didn't dare to either, so she left the room empty. This year the situation was different.
Some time ago, Yang Shushu heard her mother talk about some memories of her and her father when they were young and working hard in Beijing. Although it was very hard at that time, she could feel that her mother truly felt happy and sweet.
Even if it is a beautiful memory, why can't it be relived once more?
But re-creation requires manpower and financial resources. She might not have been able to do it before, but now she has a husband who is both wealthy and influential, so it would be a waste not to use it.
Thus, she realized the importance of money these days.
When Yang's parents were young and working in Jinjing, they lived in an old village a little far from the center of Jinjing. The village was old and the houses were all of ancient style. There were still some elderly people living in the village at that time. The young people had all gone out to work, so the houses were rented out.
Because it is not in the urban area, even the old houses with history do not look like the ancient buildings under the city walls. There is nothing special about them, and many of them have collapsed.
However, with the construction of the city, this ancient village was discovered. The original old village was renovated and became a small village with ancient charm. The prices of houses here also rose, and most people could not afford to live there.
But Xiao Muye is not an ordinary person. With just one phone call, Xiao Muye booked this small village, not for anything else, just to celebrate his father-in-law's birthday.
When Yang Shushu heard him say he had booked the entire village, she was shocked: "I just asked you to rent the house where my parents used to live for one night. What the hell are you doing?"
Mu Shicang said innocently, "I just want my father-in-law and mother-in-law to have a good time reminiscing about the past without anyone disturbing them."
Yang Shushu gritted her teeth: "I think you just have money but nowhere to spend it, so you spend it recklessly."
Xiao Muye climbed up the ladder and said, "Why don't you help me manage my salary card so that I don't have the chance to spend it recklessly."
“…” It seems like a pretty good idea.
When they were talking on the phone, Yang Li was also there, and he heard what they were talking about. After Yang Shushu hung up, he gave her a thumbs up and said, "Sister, you have some tricks. If you were in charge of Xiao Muye's money, wouldn't our family be able to take off?"
Yang Shushu gave him a cold look: "Does it have anything to do with you? What? Don't forget that you still owe him five million."
Yang Li said indifferently: "We are all family, so how can we owe each other money? My brother-in-law doesn't need this little money."
Yang Shushu's expression suddenly changed: "Yang Li, can you please not be shameless? I'm doing this for my parents' sake. They don't want money, so don't be shameless. If you want money, earn it yourself. Don't expect others to support you for the rest of your life. Other people's money belongs to them, not you."
Yang Li's face turned pale after being scolded by her: "Shushu, you don't have to be so harsh... I..."
"It's not that I speak rudely, it's that you eat in an ugly way. If you are motivated and do your job well, would I talk to you like this?" Yang Shushu glared at her fiercely and turned away.
But suddenly he turned back: "Don't tell your parents, give them a surprise, okay?"
Yang Li nodded. He was really afraid of his sister now, not only because she owed him money, but also because she could be so aggressive sometimes.
I have some doubts about that soft sister——
After the brother and sister finished chatting in the community, Yang Shushu went home, and Yang Li was wandering outside.
Although he is a scoundrel, he still takes his parents' birthdays seriously. This time his sister made it so grand that he had no chance to do anything. He just had to watch his mouth, otherwise he would not be able to control his mouth when he got home and tell everything.
Yang Li walked out of the yard of the community. Not far away, a white car stopped beside him. The window was rolled down. He looked at the people in the car, was stunned for a moment, then laughed, said something to the other party, and then opened the door and got in the car.

Old Master Mu called Mu Shicang to Mu Garden today. When Mu Shicang came back, he was drinking tea in the yard. Seeing him arrive, he asked Uncle Liang to bring a box over. Mu Shicang stared at the box for a while and said, "This is..."
"It's my father-in-law's birthday, I can't go, this is a birthday gift."
As Old Master Mu spoke, he lowered his head to drink his tea.
Mu Shicang was somewhat moved when he heard this: "Grandpa... I may have some changes to my previous plan. I'm sorry..."
Old Master Mu smiled. "I originally supported you using this method. You didn't even have the child at the time, so we shouldn't involve the next generation. It would be great if you could think it through. I'm just worried that given the child's personality, if he knew the truth, it might not be easy to deal with."
Mu Shicang was also worried. He frowned as he sat across from his grandfather. "I've tried my best to keep her out of this, but the Ji family seems to be getting anxious. Not only is Ji Delu anxious to get her back, but others seem to be afraid of her returning as well."
The old man's face turned cold at this time: "What happened?"
Mu Shicang told Old Master Mu what happened with Yang Shushu in the underground parking lot of the mall. The old master fell into deep thought. Finally, he made a decision and said, "Send more people to watch in the dark. If the Ji family repeats the same old trick, don't be too hasty to take action. Protect them first."
Mu Shicang was about to drink his tea when he suddenly stopped and stared at the old man: "Grandpa, do you have any other plans?"
Old Master Mu sighed and said, "Over the years, you've been obsessed with revenge for your parents, thinking only of taking revenge yourself. Even if I told you, you might not listen. But now that you've finally thought it through, I'm not afraid of you. I've been asking an old classmate to help me investigate the Ji family. Although he's retired, he has many students in Huacheng, all of whom are in the public security system. They've long had their eyes on the Ji family. The Ji family is now like a tree that looks lush, but its roots are rotten. Once they're dug out, the whole tree will be gone."
Mu Shicang understood what the old man said. If it were in the past, he would definitely not be willing to do it, but now he felt relieved. He even stopped all his years of hard work and didn't mind. At least this way, he wouldn't have to involve her.
