Chapter 126 Of the three children, she was the worst.
“Okay, I’ll go buy it right away,” Wen Changle clapped his hands and was about to leave.
Wen Changyu said, "I'll go get the money for you."
“Why would I ask you to pay for a bed I’m buying for my niece? No, no,” Wen Changle said, leaving without waiting for Wen Changyu.
Wen Zhizhi also got up and followed, saying, "Auntie, I'll go with you to take a look."
Wen Changle took her along, saying, "Okay, you can go and pick out some styles."
Fortunately, Wen Changle and the others left first, because Wen Changyu searched upstairs but couldn't find the money.
Xu Shanshan took all the cash from the house, and Wen Changyu searched the house and even took the bankbook slips.
Although Wen Changyu had been disappointed by Xu Shanshan time and time again, Xu Shanshan always had something that disappointed him even more.
With difficulty, Wen Changyu closed the drawer, feeling as if all his strength had been drained from him, and struggled to move downstairs.
Downstairs, He Yuzhi saw him and said, "Zhizhi and Changle have already left. You don't need to take any money. If Changle wants to buy it, let her buy it. It's just a token of your aunt's goodwill."
Wen Changyu remained silent this time, because he didn't know what to say.
However, Zhizhi didn't let Wen Changle pay for the bed, curtains, and other items.
Wen Zhizhi stopped Wen Changle and paid the bill herself. "Auntie, I know you love me, but if you love me, I should love you back, right? How can I keep clinging to you and sucking your blood?"
“When I got home, you and my uncle gave me such a big red envelope, and I haven’t even spent it all yet. I feel so bad if you have to pay for it again!”
Wen Changle scolded her for being stubborn, "That should be given to you. If it weren't for... if it weren't for the fact that you've been wandering around all these years, your uncle and I would have prepared a dowry for you when you got married."
"How much is that red envelope?"
Wen Zhizhi disagreed, "My aunt thinks it's not much, but I think it's a lot."
"Anyway, I don't care, I still want to dote on my aunt."
She was pregnant and was arguing with Wen Changle about it. Wen Changle didn't dare to argue with her to the end, but just stroked her hair tenderly and said, "Why is it that you are such a lovely child?"
Wen Zhizhi smiled and said coquettishly, "I'm your own niece. If you don't love me, who will you love?"
These words prompted Wen Changle to hug her tightly. "You're right. The blood ties between people are truly wondrous. From the first moment my aunt saw you, she took a liking to you."
"Wen Qianqian has been in our family for so many years, but to be honest, I've never felt that closeness to her."
Wen Zhizhi said, "Perhaps this is what it means to be connected by blood."
After buying the supplies and arranging the room, Wen Changle and his group had lunch and then left in the afternoon, heading to the station to return to their residence.
Only Wen Zhizhi, He Yuzhi, Wen Runxiang, and a few others remained in the Wen family.
Seeing the lively atmosphere quiet down, He Yuzhi couldn't help but sigh, "That Shanshan, I don't know what she's been so stubborn about her whole life. It was supposed to be a happy family day..."
Wen Runxiang stopped her from speaking, saying, "Alright, you talk too much."
He was afraid that if he said too much, his son would be unhappy.
If we're talking about who's suffering the most from their daughter-in-law's situation, it's definitely their son. After all, in this family, no one is truly going to spend their whole life with their daughter-in-law except their son.
He Yuzhi opened her mouth, but ultimately chose to remain silent.
A moment later, He Yuzhi took Zhizhi's hand again and started talking about the baby in Zhizhi's belly, saying how many diapers and clothes the baby would need after birth.
They chatted idly until evening.
When Wen Jinshu and Lin Wenwen returned home from get off work in the evening, they saw Zhizhi and the others upon entering the door. Lin Wenwen was pleasantly surprised and asked, "Zhizhi, Grandma, when did you arrive?"
He Yuzhi told her, "We came this morning. Zhizhi is pregnant, and she took on a job at the cultural relics museum. Zhou Lin also went back home. We thought it would be inconvenient for her to go out to work alone, so we thought we would move here so that Zhizhi can go out with you in the morning. That way, we can feel more at ease."
Lin Wenwen nodded, "Sure, it'll be lively with the whole family living together."
Aside from the liveliness, the main benefit is that she no longer has to deal with those two oddballs in her family alone.
When dinner was served, Wen Changyu and the others took their seats one by one. Not only did no one call Wen Qianqian and Xu Shanshan, but the housekeeper also didn't come upstairs to bring them their meals. Lin Wenwen couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Should I go upstairs and call Mom and Qianqian to come downstairs for dinner?"
After she finished speaking, she pushed the chair away and went upstairs!
The mother and daughter needed to be urged and invited by others every now and then, especially by her mother-in-law.
Lin Wenwen was used to it.
But this time Wen Changyu said, "Sit down, no need to call, your mother and Qianqian are not home."
Upon hearing this, Lin Wenwen was somewhat stunned. Not at home?
Did they argue again?
It seems that's the case.
Lin Wenwen didn't ask any more questions and obediently sat down to eat.
After dinner, Wen Zhizhi and He Yuzhi sat on the sofa watching TV. Lin Wenwen cut some fruit and put it on the coffee table for them to eat.
Wen Zhizhi ate happily and thanked them.
He Yuzhi also ate, but was a little embarrassed. "Wenwen, please sit down. Don't rush. Let Xiao Li handle things. You've worked hard all day."
Lin Wenwen sat down and said she wasn't busy with work. After stammering for a while, she couldn't help but ask, "Grandma, Mom and Qianqian are...?"
He Yuzhi knew she wanted to know what had happened that morning, so she didn't hide anything from her and told her everything.
Lin Wenwen remained silent for a long time after hearing this.
Once back in her room upstairs, she couldn't hold back any longer and asked Wen Jinshu, "Do you know why Mom and Qianqian aren't home?"
Wen Jinshu shook her head, indicating that she did not know.
He really didn't know; his dad hadn't told him yet.
Lin Wenwen quickly recounted what had happened that morning, clicking her tongue as she spoke, "Mom... she really didn't handle this well. How could she let Qianqian arrange for Zhizhi to live in the storage room?"
Lin Wenwen couldn't understand it, so she just kept shaking her head and clicking her tongue.
Wen Jinshu's pupils contracted slightly behind his glasses. He raised his hand and pushed up his glasses, concealing the expression in his eyes.
——
After Xu Shanshan and Wen Qianqian moved out of the Wen family home, they returned to the house they had lived in before. As soon as they entered, Wen Qianqian cried and complained, "Mom, Xie Zhizhi is going too far!"
“She doesn’t respect you, her own mother, at all. I think she’s doing it on purpose, deliberately trying to make Dad hate you and me.”
Xu Shanshan pinched the bridge of her nose; she had noticed that too.
The daughter she gave birth to took after the Wen family and was full of wickedness.
Of the three children, she was the worst, to be honest.
As Xu Shanshan thought about it, she became more and more convinced that her initial decision was correct. The only shortcoming was that she was still too soft-hearted and had even found a good family for him.
If I hadn't been so soft-hearted back then, perhaps none of this would have happened today.
As Xu Shanshan thought this, she felt a terrible headache.
Wen Qianqian sat down next to her. "Mom, what are we going to do? She's not going to just stay at our house forever, is she?"
Xu Shanshan clenched her hands, her fingernails digging deep into her palms. She dared not say anything more, because she could tell that Xie Zhizhi was not a kind person.
"Go find your dad and tell him to come over. I have something to say to him."
