"Oh, Auntie is back from grocery shopping."
Ling Yun and Cao Shanshan stood up from the sofa when they saw Qi Yuzhen enter.
"Oh my, you bought so many groceries! Auntie, you must be tired from all the walking. Come sit down and rest. Drink some water to cool yourself down … "
Ling Yun was quick-witted. When he saw that Qi Yuzhen's hands were full of things and she was panting from walking, he hurried over to help. He was very attentive.
Cao Shanshan smiled. She had never seen Ling Yun so diligent in her own house. However, she also came over to help Qi Yuzhen carry the groceries.
Chi Xiaoqing was the last. It wasn't because she wasn't filial, but because she was her biological mother. She didn't have to be so polite.
"Mom! Why did you buy so many things? Will we have enough to eat? "
Chi Xiaoqing took the last big bag from her mother's hand. She felt that Qi Yuzhen had bought too many vegetables today. She was afraid that she had spent three to four hundred yuan on these things. She couldn't help but complain.
"Look at you. You've never been good with words since you were young. How can you complain about having too many groceries when entertaining guests?"
Qi Yuzhen raised her hand and wiped the sweat off her forehead with the back of her hand. She scolded her daughter for not knowing how to speak.
"Moreover, Ling Yun and Shanshan are our benefactors. Mom will feel bad if we only use these few things to entertain them …"
Ling Yun, who was carrying two big bags in one hand, smiled and said, "Auntie, we're a family. This is what we should do. Please don't always talk about such trivial things in the future. It's so embarrassing."
Qi Yuzhen was overjoyed by Ling Yun's sweet words. She smiled at Ling Yun, then turned to Chi Xiaoqing and said, "Did you see that? Look at how good Ling Yun is with words … "
However, Chi Xiaoqing didn't buy it at all. She pouted and glanced at Ling Yun. "Who's family with him?"
That was what Chi Xiaoqing said, but the way she looked at Ling Yun couldn't hide the sweetness in her heart.
Ling Yun was a little embarrassed. Cao Shanshan smiled like a flower.
After hearing her daughter's words, Qi Yuzhen's heart skipped a beat and she shuddered.
That was because Chi Xiaoqing's words sounded too rude.
What was going on? He had only gone out to buy groceries, why did his daughter treat him with such an attitude?
This was too outrageous!
Qi Yuzhen's face immediately darkened. "Little Qing, how can you say that?!"
Seeing her mother's dark face, Chi Xiaoqing immediately knew that her mother had misunderstood her, but she was too embarrassed to explain. She just whispered with a red face, "We're not a family …"
Of course, Cao Shanshan could tell that Qi Yuzhen had really misunderstood. She smiled and said, "Aunty, it's alright. Please take a seat and rest. We'll bring these dishes to the kitchen first."
In this way, Qi Yuzhen was somewhat inexplicable. She couldn't figure out what was going on for a moment. She was pushed to the sofa in confusion, but her heart was puzzled.
The kitchen of the villa was very big.
"Huo! These two fish are so fresh! "
Ling Yun came in and put down the vegetables he was carrying. His gaze naturally fell on the two carps in the big basin.
The two carps had just been placed in the basin by Chi Xiaohong. They were thrashing about in the basin, stirring up water everywhere.
"One is more than two kilograms! Speaking of which, the things sold at the entrance of this residential area are really good, but the prices are really expensive! "
Chi Xiaohong said casually as she squatted beside the basin and played with the two big carps in the water.
Of course, there were large supermarkets and various kinds of shops at the entrance of the residential area. However, because they were for the rich, the things sold were much more expensive than the market for the general public.
Even though Qi Yuzhen's family lived here, she usually didn't shop around here. However, she was here to entertain Ling Yun and Cao Shanshan. She knew that Ling Yun wouldn't be interested in ordinary things, so she steeled her heart and bought all the groceries at the entrance of the residential area.
Chi Xiaoqing put down the things in her hands and looked down at the fish in the basin. She gently swallowed a mouthful of fragrant liquid and said faintly, "I really have to thank the two of you today. I haven't eaten fish since the college entrance examinations …"
Chi Xiaoqing loved to eat fish. She loved to eat fish the most.
However, because her family was poor, she and her sister could only eat fish a few times a year. Not only fish, but they also rarely tasted meat.
Of course, Qi Yuzhen knew that her daughter loved to eat fish. However, she had no choice. She had to earn money for her two children's school fees. She could only tighten her belt and save every cent carefully. How could she bear to eat fish on a normal day?
She hasn't eaten fish since the college entrance examinations?
Ling Yun was stunned when he heard this. He instantly thought of the past People's Clinic. His family of three lived a simple life in the simple and crude courtyard of the clinic.
How similar were his mother Qin Qiuyue and the current Qi Yuzhen, him and Lingyu, and the current Chi Xiaoqing and Chi Xiaohong?!
Ling Yun was puzzled. Qin Qiuyue's family was different from Qi Yuzhen's family. She was from the Qin Family, one of the eight big families in Huaxia. She was also a Xiantian Realm expert. Why did she choose to live such a hard life?
Chi Xiaohong turned around and rolled her eyes at Chi Xiaoqing. She pouted and said, "Big Sister, you deserve it! I told you to go to Big Brother Yun's house to play. His house is full of delicacies every day. You can have anything you want. Who can you blame for not going?! "
Chi Xiaoqing blushed after being exposed by her sister. She couldn't help but kick her sister's butt lightly. She glared at her sister and said, "Who's as useless as you?!"
Chi Xiaohong wasn't embarrassed. She giggled and said, "I'm not useless. Auntie Qin, Big Sister Lingyu, Big Sister Shanshan, and of course, Big Brother Yun, they all like me. If they ask me to go, of course I will go."
"I don't know who is the one who thinks about him every day and asks me about him every day. Yet, he locks himself in his room and writes useless things all day. Does this make him successful?"
Even though Chi Xiaohong was only fifteen or sixteen years old, her mouth was too sharp. She didn't care that Chi Xiaoqing's pretty face was red to the ears.
"Nonsense! Hurry up and shut up! "
Chi Xiaoqing was angry. How did she end up with such a weird sister? However, she couldn't refute and could only glare at her sister to shut up.
Ling Yun was overjoyed to see the two sisters bickering.
Cao Shanshan was speechless. She walked quietly to the fridge and opened it.
The huge fridge was almost empty except for a few bowls at the top. The contents of the bowls could be seen clearly at a glance.
Shrimp paste, carrot sticks, pickled cucumbers, and all kinds of pickled vegetables …
As soon as the fridge door opened, cold air wafted out and the surrounding temperature plummeted. Ling Yun immediately turned his head to take a look. With just one glance, he was stunned.
"You … You eat this every day?!"
They lived in such a nice villa but ate pickled vegetables. In such hot weather, they couldn't even bear to turn on the air conditioner. This strong contrast was too shocking!
If the poor had no money, even if they lived in a good place, they would still have a hard life, or even more difficult.
Chi Xiaoqing's heart tightened, and she hurriedly lowered her head.
Chi Xiaohong stood up, curled her lips, and said calmly, "Isn't that so? I've been eating this every day for more than twenty days."
This was the difference between Chi Xiaohong and Chi Xiaoqing. There was no inferiority complex in Chi Xiaoqing's character. Although she was very strong, she could adapt to any environment. She did not hide her poverty, nor did she mind it.
Ling Yun's face darkened. He walked forward and took out the shrimp paste and pickled vegetables from the fridge. Without hesitation, he threw them into the bin.
"I won't eat it anymore!"
Cao Shanshan furrowed her brows and said, "Yes, I won't eat it anymore."
"What are you four doing here? You don't have to do anything in the kitchen, just leave it to me … "
Qi Yuzhen waited for the four people for a long time, but they didn't come out. She couldn't help but walk over and say.
"Uh …"
Then, she saw the open fridge and instantly noticed the things in the trash can. She also saw her eldest daughter biting her lip with a sad look in her eyes …
Qi Yuzhen's face instantly turned as red as blood.
"Auntie's family is poor, I've let you see a joke."
Ling Yun shook his head firmly. "No, it's our fault. Auntie, it won't happen again. Let's live a good life. "
"Let's talk outside."
With that, Ling Yun led the way out of the kitchen, and the five of them returned to the living room.
Ling Yun once again brought back the snakeskin bag he kicked away and placed it in front of Qi Yuzhen.
"Auntie, there's about a million yuan in cash in here. Use it first, buy whatever you need."
"Shanshan has already given this villa to Xiaoqing. Originally, it didn't matter if we transferred it or not, but I think that if we don't transfer it, there will definitely be some unnecessary trouble if you stay here for a long time. It's not worth it, so we should transfer it as soon as possible."
"I'll get Tang Meng to send a car over later. I have a lot of cars at my place. Let Xiao Hong pick whatever she likes. If she doesn't like it, we'll buy a new one. We can buy as many as we want."
"Tomorrow, I'll transfer another sum of money to your account. It'll definitely be enough for three to five years. This way, you don't have to worry about the sisters' expenses."
"In the coming days, you don't have to do anything. Just play if you want. If you feel too bored, Auntie and Xiaoqing can learn to drive. That way, it'll be more convenient to go out in the future …"
In the blink of an eye, Chi Xiaoqing's family had cash, a villa, a car, and savings in one fell swoop!
With just a few words, he had changed the fate of Chi Xiaoqing's family!
Ling Yun was really rich and imposing. He said all these things in one breath without any interruptions.
Qi Yuzhen stared at the stacked bundles of red hundred-yuan bills in the snakeskin bag. She was stunned. She had never seen so much money in her life!
After listening to Ling Yun's words, Qi Yuzhen was stunned!
A pie fell from the sky and hit her until she was dizzy!
"Wow! Big Brother Yun, you're really too handsome! You're so generous, are you planning to marry Big Sister and me? You can choose between the two of us! "
Little Demon Girl Chi Xiaohong didn't care about that. She was so happy that she jumped up and hugged Ling Yun's neck. Then, she kissed him hard on the cheek!
This made Ling Yun speechless and helpless. However, being kissed by a little beauty still felt pretty good.
Seeing how straightforward her little sister was, Chi Xiaoqing was so embarrassed that she wanted to find a hole to hide in.
"This child is getting more and more outrageous!"
Qi Yuzhen felt her head buzzing. She was in a daze for a long time before she finally regained her senses. Coincidentally, she saw her younger daughter kissing Ling Yun without hesitation. She couldn't help but scold her.
However, Qi Yuzhen's heart was as clear as a mirror. Not to mention how Ling Yun treated her family, even if he didn't do so, her two daughters' hearts were already tied to Ling Yun. There was no way they could run away!
Not to mention her younger daughter, Chi Xiaohong. Ever since she met Ling Yun, the first thing that came out of her mouth was Big Brother Yun …
As for her eldest daughter, although she didn't say anything and locked herself in the study all day long, it was clear that her daughter was like a mother. Her eldest daughter was 18 years old this year, and she knew exactly what her eldest daughter was thinking.
Was it the eldest or the second? Or was it both …
Thinking about this, Qi Yuzhen's face turned slightly red. She felt a strange feeling in her body and her delicate body felt a little weak.
"Pfft pfft pfft, this hasn't even started yet. What am I thinking about!"
The living room suddenly became silent. Other than Ling Yun, everyone had their own thoughts. An ambiguous atmosphere began to spread. Cao Shanshan sat on the sofa and didn't move.
Cao Shanshan sat on the sofa and did not move. She was willing to be invisible. She smiled faintly and no one knew what she was thinking.
Ling Yun was the first to break the silence in the room.
"Auntie, if you don't object, we'll do it this way!"
Ling Yun didn't think too much about it. He was doing what he should do. His tone was resolute.
"This … this is such a big matter. Auntie can't make the decision herself … Xiaoqing, what do you think?"
Qi Yuzhen didn't know what to do. She looked at her daughter and let Chi Xiaoqing make the decision.
Chi Xiaoqing was silent for a long time. Finally, she gritted her teeth.
"Let's do it this way!"
"I'll go cook!"
Seeing that her daughter had agreed, Qi Yuzhen's heart trembled. She couldn't bear such a huge psychological impact and didn't dare to stay in the living room. She wanted to hide in the kitchen alone.
Lowering his head, he saw two red-tailed koi swimming leisurely in the basin, chasing each other's tails.
She looked at the two fish for a long time.
In her heart, she asked herself, How can this be?
Qi Yuzhen shook her head and sighed silently. She walked over and washed her hands with cold water.
Next, she was going to cook the best meal of her life with her own hands. (To be continued.)
