Zhang ng glanced at Ye Qiu and knew he was up to no good again.
Let’s not even talk about that promise, it’s just about helping Ye i get to know people for now, it’s not even certain whether she’ll need it! And the school Ye Qiu found, is Ye i really going to graduate smoothly from it?
"Brother-in-law, Ye Qiu, don’t worry, I will study seriously." Ye i, who had just finished washing the dishes, was unexpectedly hit by such great news and was overjoyed.
Ye Qiu and Zhang ng exchanged smiles, knowing that the grand plan he had conjured temporarily fooled Zhao Yang and Ye i.
Honestly, if Ye i could really graduate from the adult university on her own rit, introducing her to a decent job is not impossible. The key is that she must not have any ill intentions, and she must truly have genuine skills.
"Knock knock."
"Who is knocking at this hour?" Granny Liu muttered as she got up to open the door.
"I saw the car in your yard and knew that Zhao Yang and Ye i haven’t left yet." The visitor was Liu Er Ying, who loudly settled herself into Liu Sanying’s seat.
"Oh, Third Sister, your outfit looks nice, and it feels comfortable too. Ye i bought it for you, right? Zhao Yang must be making good money from his business, considering that the car looks different from last year’s." As she spoke, Ye i smiled awkwardly.
"Second Aunt, my sister-in-law bought this for my mom."
"It was Zhang ng who bought it." Feeling envious inside, Liu Er Ying did not let it slide, "How much did it cost? Did you go to the big market to buy it specially after hearing what I said the other day? I always say a daughter-in-law should be kept in check like this."
"Second Aunt, Sister-in-law Gangzi has been managed well by you, but even during the New Year, I didn’t see you wearing new clothes!" Ye Qiu chid in.
Zhang ng is now seen as a financial god to Ye i and her husband, naturally getting their praise, and Ye i retorted without showing weakness: "Second Aunt, you got it wrong this ti, this outfit, ngng bought it from a mall in the city, it cost over three thousand."
"It was three thousand!" Liu Er Ying exclaid in surprise.
"What’s three thousand worth, Second Aunt? Brother Gangzi made a fortune today. Sister-in-law Gangzi will definitely be even more filial to you, stop hiding and tell us, what did Sister-in-law Gangzi buy for you this year? We’ll co to your house to visit tomorrow, you should bring it out for us to admire," Ye Qiu put on an envious face and sincerely said.
Liu Er Ying was embarrassed as she didn’t have any clothes costing thousands of yuan; even a few hundred yuan was too much for her daughter-in-law to spend, so she put on an indifferent face: "Oh, you know I like simpler clothing, how can I wear such good clothes? Besides, I manage the money, Xiao Fen can’t buy anything for ."
"Second Aunt, I have to disagree with you there; money is ant to be spent, not saved. If you have money, spend it, because it depreciates if it just sits."
"No, no, Gangzi and the others are planning to buy a house in the city, I need to save the money for them," Liu Er Ying chuckled, seemingly bragging, "I heard the price per square ter in the city is now twenty thousand yuan, Gangzi and them will be city people from now on."
"That’s great news. Brother Gangzi must be buying a big house then. Later, bring you and Second Uncle over to live together, you just wait to enjoy your retirent!"
"Yeah, Ye Qiu, you need to work hard too. You’ve studied so many years, but it’s not like you’ve accomplished anything noteworthy. Your mom is getting old as well, when will you ever make a na for yourself?" Liu Er Ying said worriedly, seemingly sighing with pity.
Ye i burst into laughter, drawing everyone’s attention. She chuckled, "Second Aunt, you probably don’t know yet, but my mom is already enjoying her life."
"Forget about the cotton clothes and leather shoes she wears, even the newly bought refrigerator, air conditioner, and massager are worth about twenty thousand yuan. All these were gifts from ngng to her, and since ngng is Ye Qiu’s girlfriend, doesn’t that an Ye Qiu is the one honoring her? Tell , if you don’t study, where can you find such a good girlfriend?" Ye i said with a boastful expression, looking at Liu Er Ying.
"And they’re not even married yet, spending so much money?" Liu Er Ying was incredulous. But after being shown those items by Ye i, she couldn’t help but believe it. She knew how stingy Ye i could be, certainly not soone who would buy these things for her mom, and as for Liu Sanying, she didn’t have that kind of money either.
"Because ngng’s family is rolling in cash!" Ye i said pridefully, "You might not know this, but ngng’s family are millionaires!"
"That’s a lot of money!" Liu Er Ying rubbed her hands together and started questioning again, "That’s not right, if Ye Qiu’s girlfriend has so much money, why did you ask to borrow twenty thousand yuan just a couple of days ago?"
Ye Qiu smiled helplessly at the right mont, "We’re not married yet, right? ngng’s money is her father’s, I can’t just live off her, can I? I thought since you’re my beloved Second Aunt, that’s why I approached you for a loan!"
"Ye Qiu, you’re short of money?" Ye i was taken aback, seemingly unaware of this situation—ngng had so much money, and Ye Qiu still needed money?
"Exactly, that day Ye Qiu asked to borrow twenty thousand yuan from . Thinking you are his blood sister and he might feel awkward asking you directly, I decided to speak up on his behalf. I initially planned to co over during the day, but we had guests at ho, it was good timing that you were still here in the evening, so I ca over," Second Aunt Liu explained the circumstances.
"It’s twenty thousand yuan!" Ye i chuckled, not noticing Zhao Yang desperately signaling her, "But our business is also tight with cash flow right now."
What a fool she is, still thinking Ye Qiu is the sa Ye Qiu from before?
Zhao Yang glared at her, quickly adding, "But we do have twenty thousand yuan, after all, Ye Qiu is Ye i’s biological brother, we can handle the rchandise once others settle their accounts."
Granny Ye was quite savvy, how could she not know her daughter’s rejection was a reflex? And her son-in-law, Zhao Yang’s sudden shift in attitude, wasn’t it because of ngng’s status?
She figured it all out, today, without ngng, don’t even dream her daughter and son-in-law would fork over a single penny. It was the sa before, even unwilling to lend just two thousand yuan when Ye Qiu was in school!
"No need." Zhang ng chuckled lightly, "Since it’s money for business turnarounds, Ye Qiu probably doesn’t want to take it anyway. Let lend it to him. He doesn’t want people talking behind his back; we can even write an IOU. I believe in Ye Qiu’s capabilities."
Zhang ng thought they were hilarious, totally clueless about how capable Ye Qiu really was. In terms of making money, Ye Qiu was second to none. Mistaking a gem for a fish’s eye, it serves them right not to get rich.
"ngng, thank you." The pretense was already out there; the play had to go on, Ye Qiu moved, held Zhang ng’s hand gratefully.
Liu Sanying looked at Zhao Yang’s regretful and pitiful expression and rolled her eyes.
Liu Er Ying kept her mouth shut, feeling very jealous inside. What’s so good about Ye Qiu that he got such a rich girlfriend? Putting it nicely it’s a loan, isn’t it just living off a woman? Pah!
