Wang Xia parked her car on the side of the road, took her bankbook, and walked up to Wang Peng.
"Brother, this is 300,000 yuan that Sister Mengjiao lent you. She wants you to reopen Brother Supermarket."
She handed the passbook to Wang Peng, who was staring at the Audi. She smiled slightly and then handed the passbook back to her sister-in-law.
Li Mingzhu took the passbook and looked at the deposit on it; sure enough, it was 300,000 yuan.
With this money, there's no need to worry about Wang Song's money being frozen by the court.
She put the passbook into her bag. Since it was borrowed money, she figured she might as well lend it.
Although she preferred the life where his wife painted and he sold his paintings, she knew that her husband still wanted to reopen the Brothers Supermarket.
"Xiaoxia, is James Bond being attacked by competitors? Just like how the top ten supermarkets, such as Brilliant, are besieging their brother?" Li Mingzhu asked.
"That's true, but it's not a big problem," Wang Xia said. "Sister Mengjiao has already returned to England to handle it."
Hearing this, Wang Peng secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
He put his hands in his pockets and looked at Wang Cheng, "Even without Lao Wang's 300,000, I can still reopen Brother Supermarket. Do you admit it?"
Wang Cheng gritted his teeth, wishing he could strangle Wang Peng.
His biggest fear was that Brother Supermarket would reopen. During the period when Brother Supermarket was in operation, Huihuang Supermarket's turnover plummeted.
"Wang Peng, I thought you were so capable, but in the end you're just a gigolo?"
"You rely on women to sell your paintings for a living, and you rely on borrowing money from women to get through difficult times."
After saying all that in one breath, Wang Cheng didn't anger Wang Peng, but he ended up making himself very angry.
"Haha." Wang Xia laughed. "Second brother, you're the biggest gigolo in the entire provincial capital, and you still have the nerve to mock others?"
A ruthless glint flashed in Wang Cheng's eyes. "Wang Xia, ten acres of your family's land have been taken over by the highway. You have 17,000..."
"I know, I've heard about it." Wang Xia smiled slightly. "Are you trying to say that Old Wang gave my compensation to my older brother?"
Wang Cheng nodded. That's 17,000 yuan. Third Sister will definitely ask Wang Peng for the debt.
"Hehe." Wang Xia turned to look at Wang Peng. "Brother, legally speaking, that 17,000 yuan is mine, right?"
Wang Peng nodded. Wang Xia's household registration was also in Xiaowang Village, and the government had given her compensation.
"Okay," Wang Xia said with a smile. "How about I invest the 17,000 yuan in my brother?"
Wang Peng was taken aback, then pointed to the Audi parked on the side of the road, "This car looks familiar."
"Hehe." Wang Xia said with a smile, "This is the Audi A6 you sold. The buyer is Sister Meng, and she wants to lend it to you."
It was all about borrowing again. First, he borrowed a huge sum of 300,000 yuan, and then he borrowed a luxury car worth more than 500,000 yuan.
Wang Cheng felt a pang of jealousy. "Wang Peng, isn't this just him living off a woman?"
"None of your business!" Wang Peng said. "Is there a woman willing to lend you 300,000 yuan? Is there a woman willing to lend you an Audi?"
"Hmph!" Wang Cheng sneered, speechless once again.
Li Guifen was terrified. She had known Li Mengjiao for a long time; she was a very beautiful girl.
"What's so great about Wang Peng that made Li Mengjiao lend him 800,000 yuan all at once?" She couldn't understand it at all.
Wang Peng took out his phone to call Li Mengjiao, but the call couldn't get through.
"Big brother, I just saw Sister Meng off at the airport," Wang Xia said. "Sister Meng, Bu Hui, Aunt Xu has already gone back, and Uncle Long is here to take charge."
Wang Peng put his phone in his pocket and said, "Wife, you take the bus back."
"No," Li Mingzhu shook her head. "I want to ride in our family's tricycle. The Audi doesn't belong to us."
Wang Peng nodded. "Xiaoxia, your dad is at my house. Why don't you come over for a meal?"
"Big brother!" Wang Xia exclaimed excitedly, which meant that her eldest brother had acknowledged her as his third sister.
She was the first person to try to mend their familial relationship with Wang Peng.
When Wang Song refused to pay her tuition, she went to Ping'an County No. 1 Middle School to deliver boxed lunches. Gradually, she realized how hard it was to earn money and began to understand her older brother's suffering.
So she wanted to mend her relationship with Wang Peng.
However, Wang Peng remained indifferent to her for five or six years. At this moment, she finally gained her elder brother's forgiveness.
"Big brother!" Wang Xia burst into tears. "Big brother, I've been waiting for this day for so long, big brother!"
She threw herself into her older brother's arms, crying as she said, "My parents don't love me, my brothers and sisters don't care about me, and I've suffered a lot of injustices over the years."
Wang Peng sighed softly and chose to forgive Wang Xia.
In her past life, Wang Xia was indeed an ingrate, but she has already been punished in this life.
Growing up without the love of parents and siblings, and having to earn your own tuition and living expenses from junior high to university, is a hardship that most people simply cannot endure.
"Xiaoxia, don't cry." Li Mingzhu stroked her head. "Actually, your older brother has been secretly looking after you all along."
“I know, I’m benefiting from my older brother’s success.” Wang Xia nodded, crying.
He earned money to deliver food for junior high school, to work as an accountant for high school, and to earn money to work as a James Bond for college.
The owners of these three stores are all close friends of Wang Peng. If it weren't for Wang Peng's influence, Wang Xia wouldn't have had the chance to work and earn money.
The reunion of the siblings was deeply moving, but Li Guifen and Wang Cheng were filled with hatred. The better Wang Peng's life became, the more distressed they felt.
Wang Cheng said in a deep voice, "Mom, let's not disturb their sibling relationship. Money is the most important thing."
Li Guifen sneered, "Wang Peng, go home and tell Wang Song that half of that 300,000 yuan belongs to me, and half of everything in our hometown belongs to me."
Wang Cheng said, "Brother, Mom has decided to divorce Dad. I suggest you do it according to the law."
"Hmph." Wang Peng sneered, "Who do you think you are? Do you think you can teach me how to do things?"
“I’m not teaching you how to do things, I’m just giving you some advice,” Wang Cheng said. “Goodbye, brother and sister-in-law.”
With that, he opened the car door for his mother and Wang Zhen to get in, and then drove away from the scene.
Wang Peng patted Wang Xia on the shoulder, "Third sister, you drive back, I'm going to relax with your sister-in-law."
"Brother, you drive, and I'll ride your tricycle," Wang Xia said.
The driver in the car was named Lin Na, and she was Li Longfei's bodyguard.
Wang Peng looked at Li Mingzhu, who nodded and took the keys from Wang Xia's hand. "Xia, thank you for your help."
"No trouble at all," Wang Xia said with a smile. "Sister-in-law, I've decided to take a long leave of absence and stay home with you during your pregnancy."
Li Mingzhu was taken aback, then shook her head. "No need for that, you still have work to do."
“Yes, yes,” Wang Xia said. “I’m not taking care of you, I’m taking care of my little nephew.”
With that, Wang Xia rode away on her tricycle, carrying a heavy set of tools for setting up maps.
Wang Peng smiled slightly, "Wife, if I had known that a big fire could reveal my true feelings, I would have started this fire myself."
"Pah!" Li Mingzhu laughed. "Honey, this fire has brought us a lot of benefits, not only money, but also family."
Wang Peng was in high spirits. "Now all that's left is for the criminals to be caught. I'm very relieved. My uncle and the police won't let them get away with this."
Li Mingzhu said, "I want to go to the big banyan tree in People's Park. That's where we fell in love. I'm in a good mood today, so I want to go see it."
