Li Jianye rolled his eyes at his wife, not wanting her to hold the children back. "What do you know? The South has more external contacts now, and Xiaoning is building a factory there to show off to those outsiders. Xiaoning's factory in the South is a leading role both internally and externally."
Yang Jinping snorted, "I don't understand what you're talking about. Don't even think about not being able to see your grandson."
Ye Shuning took her mother-in-law's hand and said, "Mom, even if we go south, we will come back to see you. You are retired now, so you can also come south to see us. Transportation will become more and more convenient in the future."
Yang Jinping lived with her younger daughter-in-law for a while and found her to be much better than her older daughter-in-law. She treated her eldest grandson even better than his biological mother. No wonder the eldest grandson insisted on following his younger aunt.
The rest of the family also liked Ye Shuning, and the youngest son's family made the house more lively. If the youngest son and his family of three left, and took the eldest grandson with them, the house would become deserted again.
But Yang Jinping also knew that her youngest son and his wife had important things to do, and she couldn't really hinder them.
Ye Shuning wrote a plan for building a garment factory that evening and handed it to her father-in-law the next morning.
Li Jianye took the plan to work.
Tomorrow is Sunday, and Li Jingyu doesn't have school. Ye Shuning plans to take Li Jingyu to buy a new schoolbag because his is broken, and also buy him some clothes. Yang Jinping is also going with them.
The next day, Li Shaozhong had to stay home to look after the children, so he couldn't help much at the mall. Li Shaoting drove the others to the mall.
Arriving at the mall, Ye Shuning took a look around. Jingdu's merchandise was now much richer than before, much of it imported from Nangang. She also spotted clothing produced by the Ling family's garment factory. It seemed the mainland market had indeed opened up considerably.
Ye Shuning went to the schoolbag and stationery counter to pick out a schoolbag for Li Jingyu. Yang Jinping asked Li Shaoting to help Ye Shuning with her things while she went to look at her clothes and decided to buy two spring outfits.
Li Shaoting stood next to Ye Shuning and her son and watched them choose schoolbags.
At this time, two women came over from the side. One of them saw Li Shaoting and the others and pulled the woman next to her, "Meiling, look, isn't that your ex-husband and your son? Who is the woman next to your son? Isn't she the stepmother your ex-husband found for your son?"
Fu Meiling immediately spotted her ex-husband and son. Seeing her son chatting and laughing with a beautiful young woman while they were choosing things, she felt as if a knife had stabbed her in the heart.
The last time she saw her son at the school gate, he ignored her, but now he is talking and laughing with another woman. What an ungrateful person.
Fu Meiling's mind buzzed as she ran over, shouting in frustration, "Li Shaoting, you're amazing! You found a stepmother for Jingyu so quickly. No wonder you ignored me. It turns out you found a young and beautiful vixen. Li Jingyu, you ungrateful bastard! You're so rude to your own mother, but so happy with your stepmother! Are you a jerk?"
Li Shaoting's face darkened when he heard Fu Meiling's indiscriminate nonsense. "What nonsense are you talking about? This is my sister-in-law, Jingyu's aunt. If you want to make trouble, go back to your own home and stop being an eyesore in front of our family."
It would have been fine if Fu Meiling scolded him, but she started by accusing her own brother and sister-in-law, which made Li Shaoting very angry.
Li Jingyu was also unhappy when he heard his mother scolding his aunt, "Mom, don't talk nonsense when you don't know anything. This is my aunt."
Although Fu Meiling had never met Ye Shuning, she had heard a lot about her. She was furious when she saw her son defending Ye Shuning against her.
She looked up at Ye Shuning carefully, sneered, and blurted out, "Are you Ye Shuning, whose engagement was broken off by the Yan family? You look like such a vixen, no wonder you hooked up with Li Shaozhong after divorcing Yan Jingwen. What's the matter? You're not satisfied with hooking up with your younger brother, so you want to hook up with your older brother too? Otherwise, why didn't Li Shaozhong accompany you shopping, but Li Shaoting?"
Before anyone else could say anything, a man suddenly rushed over from the side and slapped Fu Meiling in the face.
The slap was so loud that Fu Meiling's face was twisted to one side, which showed how much force the slapper used.
After being slapped, Fu Meiling turned around and wanted to curse the person who hit her, but when she saw that it was her ex-mother-in-law Yang Jinping, she didn't dare to curse out loud.
At this time, Yang Jinping looked at Fu Meiling fiercely and scolded her, "You are dirty and selfish in your heart. Don't think that others are the same as you. You are not good to your son. You fail to fulfill your responsibilities as a mother and don't allow others to be nice to Jingyu. Ye Shuning is a member of our Li family. What's wrong with being nice to Jingyu?
You abandoned your husband and son, and now you have the nerve to yell at me. How can you be so shameless? You've already divorced my son, and you have no right to interfere in their affairs. Stay away from our family. Get out now, the farther the better.
Ye Shuning felt that her mother-in-law was very powerful when she showed her power, but she was also afraid that her mother-in-law would get angry and do something bad, so she quickly stepped forward and put her arm around her shoulders and said, "Mom, don't be angry. It's not worth getting angry with someone who doesn't know the rules."
Li Jingyu also hurried over and held grandma's hand, "Grandma, please don't be angry, or you'll get sick from it."
After hearing the words of her daughter-in-law and grandson, Yang Jinping felt her anger subside a lot. She touched her grandson's head and said, "Okay, grandma is not angry anymore."
She knew she shouldn't scold Fu Meiling like that in front of her grandson. After all, Fu Meiling was her eldest grandson's biological mother. But she was so angry when she heard Fu Meiling's nonsense just now.
Why did she fall in love with such a willful, unreasonable woman and marry her to her son? She really ruined her eldest son's happiness for life.
Yang Jinping now felt even more guilty about her eldest son and resolved not to interfere in his marriage. She wouldn't interfere with who her second son liked or wanted to marry. Even if he didn't want a partner, she wouldn't force him to marry someone he didn't like. She feared he'd follow in her eldest son's footsteps. She'd be utterly miserable if that happened.
Yang Jinping was quite imposing when she showed off her power. Fu Meiling was also a little afraid of her ex-mother-in-law. She wanted to argue a little more but was pulled away by the woman next to her.
Ye Shuning looked at the depressed Li Jingyu, put her arm around the little fellow's shoulders, pointed at the toy submachine gun prominently displayed on the counter, and said, "Jingyu, haven't you always wanted a toy gun? Look at how impressive that toy gun is. Let's buy one. We have several kinds of toy guns. Take your pick."
