Chapter 347 Suspicion about Xu Xinyi's Background
Two days before moving, all the soft furnishings in the house were completed. Lin Qin and his wife took a look and found that the home appliances, mattresses, etc. in the house were all imported, and the sofa was also ordered from Guangdong Province. There was not a single cheap item in the house.
"Where did you get so much money?" Lin Qin stared at his youngest son suspiciously.
Chen Ruiming was very proud, "Dad, Mom! You are looking down on me! No matter what, I am still your son. With such outstanding brothers and sisters around, there is no reason for me to be nothing, right?"
"Hmm?" Lin Qin looked at him with a look that was becoming more and more strange. "Speak human language!"
Chen Ruiming shrank his neck and laughed awkwardly, "In fact, my classmates and I started an export business together. My godfather helped to lead the business. We are engaged in home appliances. All the things in our house were brought back from abroad by me.
The mattress was purchased by my classmate, who is from Thailand and his family specializes in this business. It is guaranteed to be authentic.”
When Lin Qin heard this, she was very curious, "Okay, little brat, how much did this mattress cost?"
"But, it's only a few thousand yuan per bed, and people sell it for more than ten thousand yuan at retail!" Chen Ruiming said as if it was a matter of course.
Lin Qin couldn't help feeling distressed after hearing this. Although her family was rich, she would not spend money recklessly. It would only cost a few hundred dollars to hire a local craftsman to tie a mattress. Comparing the two, she didn't want to say anything instantly.
After a long while, she asked, "How much did you invest in export trade? Did you get your money back?"
Chen Ruiming nodded, "Of course! If I don't get my money back, how can I afford to buy so many things for my family?"
Lin Qin still stared at him.
Chen Ruiming had to confess honestly, "I actually invested all the money I had saved since I was a child."
"More than one million?" Lin Qin felt that his blood pressure suddenly became a little high.
Chen Ruiming quickly comforted her, "Mom, listen to me, although I invested more than one million, the return is also considerable. In just half a year, I got more than 900,000 yuan, and at the end of the year, I got another 1.3 million yuan. I have made my money back, I have already made my money back!"
Lin Qin was so frightened that she grabbed her son's ear and gave him a lecture.
Now that things have come to this, there is nothing else to do except to scold him.
Four days after moving, the Chen family held a housewarming party and all relatives and friends came.
There is a public area on the first floor of the resettlement housing community that is used for weddings and funerals.
Lin Yi had been making tea here early in the morning. He was in high spirits and looked happy at everything until Zhu Fugen and his family came over.
"Uncle, I heard you moved to a new house. Congratulations."
As soon as Zhu Fugen saw Lin Yi, he came over and forced his son Zhu Laigui to call for help.
Lin Yi raised his eyelids, glanced at them thoughtfully, and nodded almost imperceptibly, "You are well-informed. I don't plan to make a big fuss. I'll just treat the villagers to a meal."
Zhu Fugen nodded flatteringly, "I know, I know. My uncle has always been very low-key. I just happened to live nearby, and I came here after hearing from a friend."
"You live nearby? Did you buy a house here?" Lin Yi was very surprised.
Zhu Fugen shook his head quickly, "We rented it. This village is too backward and has nothing. He didn't want to go back after coming here. He's not a child anymore, so we wanted to buy him a house in the city so he can get married."
The housing prices in the city were expensive before, and now they are rising by hundreds of dollars a year. I can’t afford it. I really can’t afford it! Uncle, I just want to ask you about that child back then.”
"What child? How come I don't know?" Lin Yi frowned unhappily.
Li Lan on the side began to cry, "Uncle, you also know the situation in our village. If you don't have a son, you will be criticized. But the government doesn't allow us to have children, so we had no choice but to send the child away.
Laigui is older now, and he feels lonely. We want to bring the child we sent away back home so that they can take care of each other in the future."
Lin Yiqi laughed, "How can you be so shameless! Oh, you don't want it if you say so. We have raised the child and now we are coming to recognize him. Why? When your father asked us to help with this matter, he wrote in black and white that he would not bother us in the future. Now you come to me to inquire, do you want to make me a nobody?"
Zhu Fugen's face changed and he quickly admitted his mistake, "Uncle, that's not what we meant. We heard that my cousin has a daughter who is about the same age as the child back then."
"And then?" Lin Yi had a calm face, not showing any panic at all.
Zhu Fugen and Li Lan looked at each other, uncertain for a moment.
Zhu Fugen laughed twice and said, "We just want to see the child. She will come over today!"
The couple had been inquiring for several years before they got this information. Originally, they planned to go to Pingxi Town, but they heard that Lin Ying's family no longer lived in Xujia Village. Pingxi Town was the Xu family's territory, and if they really went there, they would probably alert the enemy. So they had to hold back and only raided the house today.
Lin Yi sneered, "It must be okay for you to see my granddaughter! Did you bring a gift?"
The couple was stunned. What was going on?
Lin Yi was immediately unhappy. "You didn't even prepare a gift for us, yet you still dare to ask Aying to bring her daughter to you!"
Zhu Fugen reacted and said quickly: "We're ready, we're ready, don't we have everything with us? We will definitely give it to you."
Zhu Fugen took out two hundred yuan.
Lin Yi pushed the money back directly, "Keep it for yourself! Wait until your child comes back from studying abroad and then give it to him when you have a chance to see him."
Zhu Fugen and his wife's expressions changed instantly.
Li Lan was anxious, "Why did she go abroad?"
Lin Yi frowned, "What's wrong with my granddaughter studying abroad? Her parents can afford it, so they are willing to let her study abroad. If the child is willing to develop abroad, it's okay if she never comes back. There's nothing to be surprised about!"
Li Lan's face fell instantly.
Zhu Fugen's expression wasn't much better.
After their plan failed, they saw Lin Yi continuing to entertain guests, so they had no choice but to bring their son to the table and ask others about the situation of Lin Ying's family.
Lin Yi hasn't had much contact with the villagers in these years. Except for Lin Qingxiang and the team leader, the villagers really don't know much about Lin Yi's situation, let alone the details of Lin Ying's family.
All we know is that Lin Ying has two very promising sons and a doted on little daughter, but no one has ever seen her.
Unable to find out anything, the couple ate the banquet in anger and took their son home.
As soon as Zhu Laigui got home, he continued to play with his mobile phone and did nothing else.
Li Lan frowned, "What should we do? If your cousin really sends the child abroad, we will never be able to see each other. You said you would wait for the child to help you, but you are just dreaming!"
Regardless of whether the child is their daughter or not, they can't rely on her at all in the current situation.
