After saying that, Ye Weiwei turned to the driver, Xiao Zhang, and offered him one, saying, "Everyone should have one."
Liu Guilan was hesitant to refuse, but when Xiao Zhang tried to decline, she smiled and advised, "Keep it, keep it. You'll get some good luck from Weiwei."
After thanking him, Xiao Zhang accepted the gold bars.
Huo Xiao watched expectantly as Ye Weiwei put away the remaining two gold bars and asked, "Wife, what about mine?"
Is it true that everyone who sees it gets a share?
Why didn't he have it?
Ye Weiwei glanced at him and said, "What's yours is mine, so what's wrong with me keeping it?"
Huo Xiao touched his nose. "Yes! Wife, you're right!"
Liu Guilan couldn't help but laugh at her son's humiliation. Her third son was truly completely under Weiwei's thumb.
However, she couldn't bear to see her third son empty-handed, so she took two from her own portion and stuffed them into Huo Xiao's hands, saying, "If your wife won't give them to you, Mom will. Tell Mom, who's closer to you, Mom or your wife?"
Huo Xiao suddenly felt that the thing in his hand was burning hot. Could he possibly answer such a question about death?
Ye Weiwei looked at Huo Xiao with amusement, "I also want to know, between the two of us, who is the closest?"
Huo Xiao looked at his mother and then at his wife with a bitter face, finally standing next to Ye Weiwei with a grin: "Of course, my wife is the closest! Isn't there a saying that goes, 'Once you marry a wife, you forget your mother'?"
Liu Guilan glared at Huo Xiao, feigning anger: "You little ingrate, I've raised you for nothing!"
After saying that, he picked up a broom next to him and pretended to hit someone.
Huo Xiao immediately slipped away, running as fast as he could, saying confidently, "Mom, this is what you taught me. You always tell me to cherish my wife and treat Weiwei well, and I've done exactly what you said. Besides, our Weiwei is a well-educated and reasonable wife. The better I treat her, the better she'll treat me, and the more filial she'll be to her in-laws. So, you're not at a loss!"
Liu Guilan was amused by his twisted logic, "You little rascal, you're full of tricks!"
After chatting and laughing for a while, the group prepared to go back. On the way, when they passed the police station, they saw Zhao Mingzhe's parents being dragged inside by several police officers, which attracted a lot of onlookers.
Ye Weiwei glanced at the disheveled Zhou Minru and Zhao Jianmin, and smiled it off.
Zhou Minru never dreamed that while she was peacefully at home, disaster would suddenly strike, with several police officers breaking down her door and catching her completely off guard.
These police officers seemed to know their family inside and out. They went straight to where the family had hidden things and soon found all the savings they had accumulated over the years.
Even after being taken to the police station, she was still in a daze, not knowing how things had suddenly turned out this way.
Zhao Jianmin was completely baffled, not knowing who they had offended or who had reported them.
They didn't expect Ye Weiwei to be involved. The key point is that when the police came to search, they found her too accurately. They even found the secret stash of money that Zhao Jianmin had hidden behind Zhou Minru's back.
Ye Weiwei has only been back in Kyoto for a few days, and since she came back, they haven't had any direct contact or even met face to face. How could Ye Weiwei know so much about their family's situation?
Fortunately, they weren't entirely without connections after all these years in Kyoto, and recently they even found a powerful backer.
So, they quickly called the Zhou family for help.
When Zhou Qingwan received the call and learned that Zhou Minru and her husband had been reported to the police station, she angrily cursed, "Useless idiots!" and hung up the phone, ignoring the two of them.
It was obvious that these two were already useless, and she couldn't be bothered to even glance at them.
This actually benefited Ye Weiwei; her plan had barely begun when the Zhao couple committed a crime and were arrested.
However, this wasn't the only move she had prepared.
Suppressing her anger, Zhou Qingwan made a few more phone calls. After hanging up, her face was twisted with hatred.
Ye Weiwei, you've offended me, Zhou Qingwan. You think you can survive in Kyoto? Dream on!
After Zhou Minru lost contact with Zhou Qingwan, she knew they had been abandoned and felt a sense of panic.
Finally, in desperation, she contacted Ye Weiwei, saying she had something important to discuss with her in person, concerning Ye Weiwei's safety.
The police chief had a past relationship with Old Master Qin. Upon hearing that it concerned Ye Weiwei's safety, he immediately sent someone to notify Ye Weiwei and explain the situation.
Huo Xiao hadn't expected that Zhao Mingzhe's parents would be arrested before he had even gathered all the evidence. When he saw the police coming to find Ye Weiwei, he frowned and said, "Wife, I'll go with you."
No matter what tricks the Zhao couple are playing, any potential threat to the young wife must be taken seriously.
The two accompanied the police officers to meet Zhao Mingzhe's parents.
In the interrogation room, across a table, Ye Weiwei watched as Zhao Mingzhe's parents went from "respectable people" to prisoners in less than half a day, a hint of satisfaction in her eyes.
In the original book, not long after Ye Wanwan and Zhao Mingzhe returned to Beijing, the couple arranged their wedding and then rose through the ranks smoothly, enjoying wealth and luxury.
He showed no gratitude whatsoever to Ye Weiwei, his son's fiancée who had helped them many times. Whenever she was mentioned, he was extremely disdainful and ashamed to speak of her, as if just hearing her name was a great insult.
"Weiwei! Weiwei! You've finally arrived!" Zhou Minru was so excited when she saw Ye Weiwei that she tried to rush over and grab Ye Weiwei's arm, but was stopped by two police officers, so she reluctantly gave up.
Ye Weiwei's voice was cold and indifferent, "You can say what you have to say now."
Seeing Ye Weiwei's attitude, Zhou Minru was furious, but considering her current situation and need for Ye Weiwei's help, she knew she couldn't offend Ye Weiwei. So she played the emotional card, which she was best at: "Weiwei, Auntie didn't know that Mingzhe was so foolish as to do such a thing, making you sad and upset. It's because Auntie and Uncle didn't raise him well and made you suffer."
But, Weiwei, in my heart I have always regarded you as my daughter-in-law. Even though you and Mingzhe are destined to be apart and cannot be together, I still regard you as family.
Think about it carefully. All these years, your aunt hasn't treated you badly at all, has she?
Ye Weiwei listened patiently to Zhou Minru's explanation, then asked, "What do you mean by 'not mistreating me'? Before my family's accident, you were so eager to profit from me and my family that you wouldn't dare mistreat me. After my family's accident, when I asked you for help, what did you do?"
