Landlady who likes to hoard land

Wang Chengyu returned quickly.

"Grandpa, you've helped me so much, I have no way to repay you. Please take these dried fruits and nuts back with you for your children."

Because of the old man's "small act of kindness", Wang Chengyu received the largest amount of merit points to date, and she took out a lot of dried fruit and nuts from her space as a thank-you gift.

"That won't do. I'm not helping you out. I'm also a resident of L City, and I have a responsibility to prevent our home from suffering losses."

If I really want to thank someone, it's you I should thank. You reminded me; otherwise, I would never have thought of that.

The old man quickly waved his hand in refusal. He meant it sincerely; he truly didn't think he had done anything special.

If he had to rank the credit, he felt that the girl in front of him deserved more credit.

"Sir, without your help, so many people wouldn't have been affected. My abilities are limited, and the number of people I can influence is also limited. I should still thank you for this."

I've left your things here; please remember to take them with you when you go home.

I've gone back to be with my mother.

After saying that, Wang Chengyu put down his things and turned to leave.

"Hey, girl!"

No matter how much the old man called out, Wang Chengyu disappeared in just a few steps.

The old man shook his head and chuckled, thinking to himself that the young lady's gesture was kind and the gift wasn't particularly valuable, so he should accept it. He would do more good deeds in the future, which would be a way to contribute to society.

Two days later, the snow on the main city streets was cleared away.

Wang Chenghua brought his youngest son to take care of his mother and let Wang Chengyu go home to rest.

Before leaving, Wang Chengyu filled the refrigerator again, leaving enough fruits and vegetables for another week.

After returning home, Wang Chengyu slept soundly in her room before coming out. She cleaned the house and cooked her son's favorite dishes while waiting for him to come home from school.

After Xu Jianren brought his two sons back, he saw Wang Chengyu at home and casually asked...

"How long will he stay at home this time? When will his grandmother be hospitalized again?"

"Not necessarily, I can stay for at least two weeks. I'll let you know in advance when I go to the hospital."

After divorcing Xu Jianren, Wang Chengyu became calmer and more composed. Her emotions stabilized considerably.

"Okay, then I'll come over tomorrow morning to take the child to school."

Xu Jianren didn't stay for dinner; he left after saying goodbye.

"Mom, what did Dad do last night? Why won't he come back until tomorrow morning?"

At the dinner table, Xu Yao found Xu Jianren's behavior strange and sought answers from Wang Chengyu.

Xu Wen also perked up his ears to listen.

“Your father also goes to work at the factory at night.”

"Why do we still have to work at night?" Xu Yao asked again.

Your grandfather's factory is a high-energy-consuming enterprise. Electricity is cheaper at night, so to save costs, they all have to work at night.

"Why is electricity cheaper at night?" Xu Yao asked, determined to get to the bottom of it.

"Because most people work during the day and sleep at night, fewer people use electricity at night, so electricity is cheaper at night."

Wang Chengyu was getting a headache from her son's questions, so she quickly picked up a cola chicken wing for him.

"Eat the chicken wings quickly, they won't taste good when they get cold."

It finally quieted down, but after a short while, Xu Wen started again.

"Mom, I feel like my studies have been so easy lately. I understand everything the teacher explains, and my homeroom teacher has praised me several times."

"Me too, I also find it all so easy. I can memorize English words really fast now," Xu Yao chimed in, not wanting to be left behind.

"Yes, I can memorize English words very quickly now. I feel like my memory has improved, and I can memorize non-core subjects quickly too. I think I can get into the top three in the class in this midterm exam!"

“My eldest son is so capable. You ranked tenth in your class in the entrance exam, which shows that you have worked hard. Don’t be arrogant. You still need to study diligently!”

"Mom's youngest son is also excellent. Keep up the good work and keep striving. As a reward, you will each receive a big chicken wing!"

She put a chicken wing on each of her two sons' plates, and the family of three chatted and laughed happily.

Xu Jianren returned to the neighborhood where Sun Jing lived.

As soon as I entered, a strange, sarcastic voice reached my ears.

"Hey, the busy man is back. Did your ex-wife finish taking care of her mother?"

Xu Jianren looked up and saw Sun Jing standing at the bedroom door with her arms crossed, looking at him with an unfriendly expression.

Xu Jianren ignored her and went straight into the bedroom, taking the baby from the nanny's arms.

"Sister Ma, I haven't eaten. Can you make me something to eat?"

"Hey, there's still chicken soup in the pot. I'll make you a bowl of chicken noodle soup. It'll be ready soon."

Sister Ma agreed verbally, and quickly left the bedroom to go down to the kitchen.

Whoever pays her salary is the boss in this family, and she does whatever the boss tells her to do.

"Tsk tsk tsk, you took care of someone's child for so many days, and they didn't even let you have a bite to eat before sending you back?"

Seeing that Xu Jianren ignored her, Sun Jing continued to taunt him.

"Are you ever going to stop? What do you mean by taking care of someone else's child? That's my son too! It's my duty to take care of my son!"

Xu Jianren is currently having a lot of trouble taking care of Xu Wen and Xu Yao, and also has to look after Sun Jing.

Finally, Wang Chengyu returned, and he no longer had to run back and forth between the two places. Just as he was about to breathe a sigh of relief, Sun Jing deliberately made sarcastic remarks to him, which immediately made him furious.

"If it weren't for you, would I be running around like this? I'm exhausted every day, isn't that all thanks to you?"

Upon hearing Xu Jianren's complaints, Sun Jing became angry and blurted out some careless words.

"It's your duty to take care of your sons. Those two are your sons, but these two aren't? Did I pick them up off the street, or did I have them with someone else for you to raise?"

Xu Jianren, who was already in a bad mood, became truly angry now.

"When did I say that Guoguo and Lele weren't my sons? Are you being reasonable?"

You have an aunt to take care of things here, but Xu Wen and Xu Yao go to school during the day, so I don't need to worry about them. I only pick them up and drop them off in the morning and evening.

"Besides work, I spend most of my time here with you, what more do you want? Can you please stop being so unreasonable?"

Being accused of being unreasonable, Sun Jing became even angrier and more aggrieved, and hysterically said...

"Who told you to run between the two sides? You brought this on yourself. You're already divorced and have given the child to her. Why are you still going? You just can't let go of your ex-wife and are using taking care of your son as an excuse."

"Wow...wow..."

The child was frightened by the two arguing and started crying.

Xu Jianren was choked and couldn't breathe. He put down the child who was crying loudly in his arms.

"Okay, okay, you said I found her myself, you said I can't let her go, then I'll buy her an apartment tomorrow and hire a nanny to take care of her, that way I won't have to go anywhere and I won't be so tired!"

After finishing his meal, Xu Jianren refused to eat anymore, ignoring Sun Jing's cries and shouts behind him, and slammed the door as he left.

Where Xu Jianren ended up is unknown to anyone but himself.

At this moment, Wang Chengyu was comfortably lying on the bed with his legs crossed, thinking about how to spend the merit points in the learning system.

Suddenly having so many merit points feels like becoming rich overnight, and I just want to buy, buy, buy.
