Ling Yifei gritted her teeth in hatred and suddenly regretted why she had impersonated this persona. She had pretended to buy things all the time but hadn't gotten anything in return. She wanted to get away and leave the trouble to Ke Meiyu, but she was hit by a 10,000 yuan bill!
“Grandma, ten thousand yuan is too much. We simply can’t afford it. I’ve inquired, and the rent is at most fifteen yuan a month. My daughter and I have lived here for twenty-nine months. Five hundred yuan could buy a small house in the suburbs.”
The old lady's face remained cold and unyielding. "You know it's the suburbs. You can't even afford to live in a proper compound, let alone get your two children into Sunshine Kindergarten."
"Do you think everyone else is stupid and can be fooled by you? Don't think I don't know what you've been up to these days. Sending your child to kindergarten means you're getting connected with the kids from the compound."
"I don't care about your affairs. Like I said, ten thousand yuan. If it's not enough, pack your things and leave Kyoto."
Ling Yifei was furious. This old lady usually loved to smooth things over, and she was especially biased and loved to put on a show. She never expected her to be so cunning inside. Her ability to expose her was too painful.
"Grandma, you should be lenient with people. Ten thousand yuan is indeed too much. How about one thousand yuan? My family owns a shop, but my parents give all the money they earn to their brothers. My husband and I are still studying and don't have formal jobs yet."
"There's a saying, 'Don't underestimate a young person's potential.' Who can say that my wife, my children, and I, who are struggling today, will still be ordinary tomorrow?"
The old lady was stubborn; after all, how many days could she live on ten thousand yuan? The tangible benefits she could actually receive were what truly mattered. She didn't respond, her eyes half-closed, as if to say, "No matter how eloquently you speak, I'll stick to my principles."
Ling Yifei's heart was bleeding. When they first got married, the couple worked hard to save up their savings, but just as they were catching their breath and preparing for the college entrance examination, they were suddenly back to square one.
Now, thanks to the grocery store, our lives have improved. We've taken over the store, bought a courtyard house, and have some savings. But now we're about to have to spend a lot more.
With spring in full bloom, she was thinking that once the children were at kindergarten, she could finally free up some time to get things done.
Now the capital has to be given away again!
