Sweet Wife in a Warm Pet Contract

"Since you're so free, why don't you tidy up the garden at home?" Runqiong said, trying to get them to leave so they wouldn't disturb Shen Menghan.

"Mom, I just wanted to have a good talk with Menghan to improve our relationship. Don't you also want us to be together?" Lu Fen said, feeling very wronged. She always thought of this family, but she was always questioned by them. Now they even suspected her of having ulterior motives. Her heart felt like it had been stabbed, making her very sad.

"Alright, alright, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future. Xiaohan just came to our house, so don't scare her." Runqiong protected Shen Menghan very well. She thought that Lu Fen and Li Meili were not sincere. If they kept bothering Xiaohan and saying things that made her uncomfortable, how could she possibly conceive her great-grandchild?

Shen Menghan was very grateful to her grandmother. Being in this family, with Li Zhicheng and her protecting her at all times, she felt very comforted.

"If I have more free time in the future, I'll go shopping with you guys." That was all she could say, not wanting Lu Fen and the others to feel too bad.

“Okay, it’s a deal.” Lu Fen immediately kept her words in mind, lest she go back on her word later.

Shen Menghan then said to her grandmother, "Grandma, I want to go upstairs."

"Okay, go ahead and get some rest."

Runqiong still looked at Shen Menghan with doting eyes, her gaze filled with deep affection, which moved Shen Menghan even more.

Grandma was just like her maternal grandmother, always so honest with her. If her maternal grandmother were here, she believed the two of them would definitely become good friends.

Unfortunately, my grandmother was unwilling to leave the small mountain village.

Her expression became much more melancholy. Her mother was always worried about her grandmother. Her grandmother was in poor health, and her mother couldn't go anywhere. Before her grandmother got sick, her mother had worked in Xicheng, but she only did small jobs, as if deliberately avoiding large groups of people. In her memory, she was either a dishwasher or a cleaner, always keeping herself far away from people.

She was like that when she was a child, and she remained like that when she grew up. It was as if her mother was used to a certain job and didn't want to change it. Until one day, she saw her staring blankly at a photo. She noticed that the beautiful woman in the photo looked very familiar. When she asked, she found out that it was a photo of her when she was young.

She was extremely shocked and asked her, "Mom, what did you do for a living before?"

“Singing and dancing,” Shen Feng answered very naturally, her eyes filled with longing, yet she hid it very well.

"Mom, why did you stop singing later?" She thought her mother had a good voice and was beautiful. Even now that she's middle-aged, she still maintains a great figure.

"If you don't want to sing, then don't sing." After saying that, Shen Feng put the photo back in her treasure box, and she never saw her take it out again after that.

"Mom, if you like singing, keep singing! I support you."

Shen Feng, however, was unwilling to continue discussing this topic with her and turned to attend to other tasks.

Later, she asked her grandmother why her mother's career had to be stopped.

My grandmother looked at her with a very sad expression, but she didn't say anything.

As she grew up, she thought a lot. She realized that she had never had her father by her side. Could it be because of him that her mother had to give up her beloved job and become a dishwasher in order to raise her?

She now has the ability and wants to fulfill her mother's dream. I wonder if she is willing to take that step again?

Forget about winning awards, just being able to stand on a big stage and sing would be enough.

After she went upstairs, Lu Fen wanted to stay by the old woman's side and chat with her more. Even though they lived closest to each other, they rarely exchanged words when they met.

"Alright, alright, let Zhicheng and Xiaohan rest." Runqiong stood up first, looked at the others, and dismissed them.

Li Zhicheng breathed a sigh of relief. His grandmother had finally come to her senses. These people had been affecting him and Xiaohan, which made him extremely unhappy.

Li Lei was more than happy to hear her say that, so he quickly left.

Xu Jingjing and the others left in a hurry because they had something to settle accounts with, leaving him a quiet space. Afterwards, he ordered Li Sao to quickly tidy up and change and wash all the things!

As soon as he entered the house, Li Guowei started shouting, "Dad, how much money did Great-Grandma give you?"

Huang Ju also stared intently at him, demanding that he tell the truth.

Li Dahai underestimated his son and told the truth: "One and a half million."

"Why won't you give it to me? Are you going to transfer this money to your brother?" He was puzzled. He just couldn't understand why he didn't tell him that the money was for him and why he made the family sound so poor. Was he trying to make him feel guilty and sorry for the family, and to make him carry this burden all the time?

Xu Jingjing's eyes lit up. If this money were in her pocket... she would divorce Li Guowei immediately, or else she would take the money and dump him!

“Our family doesn’t have any debts right now. Why don’t you let me keep this money for you? I can withdraw it if you two need it urgently.” Huang Ju thought her words would win people over.

"No, you have to give it to me now. This money is clearly meant for me, how can I let you hold onto it? If you give it to my brother behind my back, and we need it urgently in the future but can't get it, I won't stand for it!"

Li Guowei refused no matter what he said. He felt that his parents were biased and he couldn't let them continue to mess things up like this.

Xu Jingjing was not in a position to speak at this moment, but she supported Li Guowei with her actions, holding his hand tightly and giving him all her strength.

“You two are all useless, trying to drive me crazy! Now that this money is in my hands, I am the head of the family and I have to make the arrangements. The wedding cost so much money, and I paid for every single thing. After deducting expenses, there is hardly anything left of the 1.5 million.”

Li Dahai walked into the house. If he continued to listen to their nonsense, he would no longer be the head of this family.

"Dad, that money is what you should have paid. You married your son, so you didn't have to contribute anything at all? Besides, this 1.5 million yuan was originally meant for the two of us, so why are you keeping it for yourself?"

Li Guowei was convinced that he was biased, and if he wasn't biased, he should give back what was rightfully his.

"Fine, consider it yours. Keep it with me, okay?" If Li Dahai didn't show any goodwill, these people would drive him crazy.

"No, you have to keep it with me. I only feel like you're not being biased if the money is with me." Li Guowei is greedy for money and will even interrogate his own parents.

“That’s right, what do you mean by hoarding the children’s money? Give it to them.” Huang Ju always sided with her son, as her future depended on them.

"I won't give it to them unless I die. As long as I'm in charge, this money must be kept in my hands." Li Dahai was going all out; if he didn't teach them a lesson, he wouldn't deserve to be a parent.

"Then go die!"

Li Guowei immediately launched into a tirade, treating Li Dahai as if he were not human!
