Dong Yun thought about it all afternoon and realized that she had to get Li Xingguo on her side. If she took the lead, the Li family would not pay any attention to her. Although the second and third sons were rich, they were just merchants and could not compare with Li Xingguo, who was paid by the state. As long as Li Xingguo was willing to beg, the Li family should give her money, which would be used to raise the next generation of the Li family.
Li Xingguo had originally planned to do the same, intending to go back and try after dinner. "That's what my grandparents said, my parents didn't mention it, but they always say something if someone gets into university. Let's go back and give it a try, but the chances are probably slim. If it doesn't work out, we shouldn't force it."
"I'd kneel down to your parents for my child's sake. How will he cope if he goes back to his old junior high? How can his grades not drop? Xingguo, if they can help us this once, I'll do anything for your Li family from now on." Dong Yun made up her mind.
Li Xingguo knew Dong Yun was right. If he could find a way, he would make sure his child finished junior high school in the next two years. He figured the stock market wouldn't be quiet for long, and he would definitely have a chance to make a comeback.
After dinner, the family of three went out.
"Xingguo, where is the car parked?" Dong Yun went out but didn't see his car.
Li Xingguo's eyes flickered. "A colleague is getting married tomorrow, and I borrowed it as a wedding car."
"You're too easygoing. How can you lend your car out so easily? What if it gets scratched or damaged? Tell your colleague to be careful. Ours is a high-end car," Dong Yun nagged.
"Mom, we've already borrowed it, let's go quickly," Xiaoyuer said impatiently.
"Oh, then let's take a taxi. I'm sorry to make things difficult for my daughter."
"By the way, which neighborhood do your parents live in? We haven't been there yet. Did the second son really buy that house?" She had sworn never to go to the Li family again. Her own family's conditions were getting better and better, and she didn't want to curry favor with the Li family anymore since they were rich.
Li Xingguo remained silent. He felt that the house must have been bought by his parents for his second son. His parents had so much money from the relocation, it was impossible for them not to buy a house and live with his second son. As for the beauty salon, his mother didn't care about it anymore, so it must have been given to his third son. He couldn't say any of these things, or Dong Yun would definitely explode.
"Mom, stop nagging. We're asking for a favor, not bringing up these things," Xiaoyuer said, frowning. Her mother was always like that, never knowing what was important.
"Mom knows, Mom was just chatting with your dad." The anger that had been rising in Dong Yun's heart subsided a little.
Little Fish: "Mom, no matter what my grandparents say, you have to keep our purpose in mind and control your emotions."
Dong Yun took a deep breath and said, "Mom knows. Even if your grandparents beat me, I'll endure it, as long as they can pay your tuition."
Looking out the window and listening to the conversation between the mother and daughter, Li Xingguo felt a pang of sadness. At his age, he still had to be subservient to his wife and child; he was truly useless.
The three of them were allowed into the community only after registering with the property management. This is a high-end community with very strict management.
"The houses here must be very expensive," Dong Yun sighed, looking back at the gate of the community and the meticulous security guard.
Li Xingguo didn't say anything and went to find the building his second brother had mentioned.
The community is very large; it took the three of us seven or eight minutes to reach the villa area.
"Dad, this place is so nice, much better than our old yard," Xiaoyuer exclaimed, looking at the clean and spacious neighborhood.
Li Xingguo patted Xiaoyuer's head and found the building that the second brother had mentioned.
Two adjacent villas are surrounded by a courtyard wall that is taller than a person. Through the iron gate, one can vaguely see inside. The first floors of the two buildings are connected.
"The second son bought both of these buildings? How much did that cost?" Judging from the crowd gathered around, they must belong to the same family.
Li Xingguo was also shocked; he wondered if he had gone to the wrong place.
He walked to the gate, where Yuanyuan was chattering away to Li Mancang about school.
