Shen Xingzhi smiled and asked cooperatively, "I remember Xiaoyong had a girlfriend! It seems like they were dating for quite a long time. What happened? Did it end?"

At this moment, Lu Ping really wanted to roll her eyes at him and said that it didn't matter whether what she said was good or not, and it wouldn't sound much good even if Shen Xingzhi said it was good.

But she was drunk now, so she held back: "We haven't been dating for a long time, it's been almost two years."

"That girl is pretty good. My Xiaoyong didn't mind that he didn't have a wedding house, but her parents didn't agree. So the marriage has been delayed."

Shen Xingzhi understood, and everyone present understood, wasn't this aimed at Shen Xingzhou?

Everyone has their own little plans in mind. Shen Xingzhou's side has nothing to say. If the enemy comes, the general will fight back. If the water comes, the earth will cover it.

Sun Yan and the others didn't say anything either. If Lu Ping made a fuss, they would reap the benefits. If she didn't make a fuss, they wouldn't lose out either.

"Isn't Xiaoyong's unit pretty good? Don't they give him a house?" asked Zeng Ya, who had been silent the whole time.

Shen Yong works in a government agency and is allocated a single apartment by the company. If they are married, both parties will receive an apartment. Since both husband and wife work in the same company, the apartment they receive will be even bigger.

Lu Ping had boasted to everyone before that Shen Yong's girlfriend worked in the same unit and had a good family background. Although not on par with the Shen family, she was certainly not worse.

It is even more impossible not to give us housing.

Lu Ping pouted: "It's a breakup, but we don't want it."

"You don't know, that house is so run-down that it's uninhabitable, and the location is not good either. It's not rare in a small town."

"I also want Xiaoyong and his partner to come to Kyoto. It will be more lively if everyone is together."

She had wanted to bring this up for a long time, but never had the chance.

They are all the old man’s sons, so why is it that only Shen Zhiye’s family works in Kyoto and lives in the old house?

If the old man passes away in the future, wouldn't it be easy for them to take over such a big house?

She doesn't agree.

"Second Auntie is really good at joking." Shen Xingzhi laughed, "Zhezhou is such a big provincial capital, but in your mouth it has become a small town and county. This is incredible."

"How is it big?" Lu Ping said with an exaggerated expression: "It's not even as big as Kyoto!"

"Besides, your two sisters have been beaten, and they will need to find a partner in a few years. I still want to find a good family for them, but I can't bear to let them marry in the countryside."

"So we also want to transfer back to Kyoto."

Qin Feixue, who came from the countryside, drank a sip of water in the cup. For some reason, she had a bad feeling and couldn't even eat a few bites of food.

"I'm sorry I can't help with such a big matter as job transfer." Shen Xingzhi said to Lu Ping.

Lu Ping might have really gotten carried away and started to give instructions to Shen Xingzhi.

"You are just a lousy teacher. I know I can't count on you. You have no power or influence, you only get a small salary, and the house you live in is old and shabby."

She looked at Shen Xingzhou suddenly, smiled and nodded: "Look at our Xingzhou, he is still lucky, grandma loves him, such a big house was given to him as soon as she said."

She looked at Qin Feixue again: "I heard that the old man gave you the independent small courtyard near the Siheyuan. Can you two live in two houses this big?"

"It just so happens that Second Aunt has no place to live when she returns to Kyoto. That house is empty anyway, so why don't you guys give her a house to live in."

"I'm telling you, this house can't be left empty! Not only will it break down easily, but most importantly, it's prone to attracting dirt!"

Qin Feixue's eyes twitched. As expected, she was wondering why her eyelids were twitching today and why he had been waiting for her for such a long time.

She looked at Shen Xingzhou, secretly nudged his arm with her elbow, and signaled with her eyes: What should we do, we can't really let them move in, right?

Of course she was unwilling in her heart, but she didn't know what Shen Xingzhou would think.

Nowadays, it is normal to lend your empty house to relatives to live in.

If it was a relative like Shen Xingran or Shen Tinglan, she would be willing to lend it, but as for Lu Ping... she could only chuckle.

Shen Xingzhou put down his chopsticks and secretly twisted her hand under the table to reassure her.

Then he leaned back in his chair and said coldly, "No!"

His tone was decisive, not wanting to give anyone a chance to refute.

But he knew that Lu Ping would not give up so easily and would definitely want to talk it back.

"Why not?" Lu Ping never thought that Shen Xingzhou would refuse so straightforwardly and without any mercy.

She questioned loudly, her tone as if it was a matter of course that she was not allowed to go back to her home.

"First of all, Fisher's house was bought by her in exchange for wild ginseng from Grandpa. It's not mine, and I have no right to decide. Besides, it's my own house, and I don't like other people to live in it. Not to mention you, even my parents can't do that."

His idea was the same as Qin Feixue's. He had no objection to lending the house to relatives, but he didn't want to lend it to a relative like Lu Ping who was nosy and gossipy.

"You..." Lu Ping was so angry that her eyes seemed to be spitting sparks. She had nothing to say. Even her own parents didn't let her go, let alone her.

Lu Ping was not convinced and looked at Zeng Ya who was eating slowly: "Xiao Ya, listen to what your son said. He doesn't even allow his biological parents to come in. If he's like this now, what will happen in the future?"

She tried to sow discord and let his biological mother discipline him.

Zeng Ya put down her chopsticks without changing her expression. Needless to say, she was definitely on her son's side.

Someone was eyeing her son's house, could she still speak up for them? She wasn't that stupid.

"Second sister-in-law, you're right. Zhiye and I said before that we would liven up Xingzhou's house, but his aunt tried to stop us from living there, as if we would stay there and not leave."

She looked at Shen Tinglan, and her words sounded like she was blaming her.

Shen Tinglan sat quietly watching the fight throughout the whole match. When she was called out, she knew it was her turn to perform.

"The house was won by Xingzhou himself in a way that everyone agreed to. Besides, sister-in-law, your family didn't get the house, but they got a lot of mother's jewelry."

"Everything she gave me was a gift from her heart, so I can't let anyone else destroy that. Look at all the jewelry in your house, it's all empty, why don't you lend it to us?"

Lu Ping rolled her eyes at Shen Tinglan. Who was she trying to fool by trying to switch concepts with her?

How can this jewelry be the same! No matter how valuable it is, it can't compare to a house.

She seemed determined to squeeze into Shen Xingzhou's house. She spoke without thinking and her words became even more unpleasant: "Let's not talk about how the house came from. Now it is in Xingzhou's hands. He also has the decision-making power. He doesn't allow others to live in it. What will happen when he dies in the future? Hand it over?"

Qin Feixue got angry immediately.

Before she could say anything, Shen Xingzhou beside her said, "Then let's talk about it after I die. You also know that the house is mine, I have the right to decide, I have the final say, we live well as a young couple, and we don't want to be disturbed."
