"It's not very far, but the place is a little small. You'd better not go there."
Seeing him like this, Wan Mu's doubts grew even stronger.
Although Yang Chongming was nominally her apprentice, in her heart he was like her son.
Yang Chongming has lived here for the past few years, but she gives him living expenses and rent every month.
This kid is so secretive, could he just spend the money recklessly?
Wan's mother had doubts in her heart and wanted to find out the truth.
If this brat dares to do anything behind their backs, they will never let him off.
"Chongming, take us to have a look. I haven't come here as often in recent years because I'm pressed for time. I've been here several times but never been to see where you live."
In the end, Yang Chongming couldn't persuade them and had to lead the way.
After many twists and turns, we arrived at a small village.
In the most remote part of the village, there was a dilapidated little courtyard. Yang Chongming pushed open the door.
"I live here. Even though this house is a bit run-down, it's still very safe. It's quiet here, and no one disturbs me. I can concentrate on designing."
Yang Chongming tried hard to introduce the good things about this place.
However, no one is blind.
It's hard not to be quiet in this place.
Wan's mother's face immediately darkened and her tone became very stern.
"Chongming, why are you living in a place like this? Didn't I give you the rent?"
Seeing that she was angry, Yang Chongming hurriedly said, "Master, don't be angry, I didn't spend money recklessly."
"Then tell me, where did all the money go? Just this small house, 1,000 yuan a year in rent? Do you think I will believe you?" Wan's mother said angrily.
The more she looked at the house, the angrier she became.
There was almost no furniture, just a small bed and a small cabinet containing a few of Yang Chongming's clothes. The other room was filled with jade processing tools, also piled in a mess.
"You live in a place like this. Even if you have jade, aren't you afraid that it will be stolen?"
Wan's mother became angrier and angrier as she spoke, and she demanded an explanation from Yang Chongming.
"Explain it to me quickly, or I won't leave today. Tell me, are you hiding something from me?"
"Master, I really didn't do anything messy."
"Then what about the living expenses I gave you?"
Under the relentless pressure from Wan's mother, Yang Chongming finally couldn't hold on any longer.
He pulled out a metal box from under the bed, opened it, took out a passbook and handed it to Wan's mother.
"Master, this is the money you sent me over the past few years. I thought that before I had no means of living, you provided me with food, drink and shelter. Now that I can earn money, I want to support myself, so I didn't spend the money you gave me."
Looking at the amount on the passbook, Wan's mother's eyes turned red with anger.
"You kid, are you trying to piss me off to death? At least you call me Master, and I provide you with food and shelter. It's not in vain. If you study hard, you will have a bright future, and then you can repay me, even if it means returning all this money. But look at what you've done to yourself."
"Master, please don't be angry. I know I was wrong."
Yang Chongming was frightened when he saw Wan's mother crying.
Mother Wan rubbed her eyes and shook off his hand.
"I don't care. Find me a place right now. I won't leave until you settle down. If you don't settle down, I won't leave."
Wan Qian also said, "Chongming, we feel bad when you treat yourself like this. Even if the money is small, at least you should have enough food and shelter. Just listen to my mother and move to a better house. Look, even the doors and windows are broken. It would be very dangerous if you really met a bad guy."
Seeing that the situation was getting out of hand, Yang Chongming had no choice but to agree.
"Okay, I'll go find a house right away. Don't worry. Master, please stop crying. It makes me sad when you do this."
Although Yang Chongming was good at dealing with people, he was at a loss when he saw Wan Mu's expression.
"You don't want to make me angry, but you still do things that make me angry?" Wan's mother was furious.
"Master, I was wrong. Please don't be angry. Can't I move now?" Yang Chongming said.
Wan's mother still refused to give in and stuffed the passbook into his hand, "Take this money. The living expenses I send to you are your money. Although I, your master, am not a wealthy man, I still have the ability to support my apprentice.
Chongming, you must remember that I am not only your master, but also your relative and your support in this world.
I treat you as my own child, but what about you? In your heart, am I just an outsider? "
Hearing this, Yang Chongming's eyes were red, "Master, that's not what I meant, I just think I can do it."
"You can be successful with your own abilities, but my master is doing his part by giving you living expenses. I feel at ease when I sleep at night.
But you calculated the money so clearly with me and didn't even spend the living expenses I gave you. How should I feel?
Did I do something to make you feel that I am not your relative?
"Master, it's not like that."
"Then do as I say. Find a decent place to move to quickly. I'll leave after you've settled in."
Having said that, Yang Chongming didn't know what to say.
"Master, don't be angry. I will listen to you and go find a house tomorrow."
"Now."
Wan's mother couldn't wait any longer.
"Okay, let's go now." Yang Chongming agreed immediately.
