Reborn 99 Days Later, Becoming a Landlady and Getting into Tsinghua and Peking Universities

"what happened?"

When Liang Ruotao noticed Liang Yili observing her again, she turned her head and met her gaze.

Liang Yili gave a dry laugh and shook her head: "No~"

Liang Ruotao narrowed her eyes slightly and said with certainty, "Something's wrong with you! What happened?"

Ever since Liang Yili returned after delivering the potato tower, her gaze has been subtly fixed on her.

A hint of unease and worry occasionally flashed in his eyes.

A glint of light flashed in Liang Ruotao's eyes: "What did you hear? Or... has something happened to the Liang family?"

Liang Yili was stunned, her mouth slightly open, looking at Liang Ruotao with a shocked expression.

Liang Yili's reaction confirmed Liang Ruotao's suspicions, and her tense heart instantly settled down:

"Tell me, what happened to the Liang family?"

Liang Yili licked her lips and said cautiously, "The woman Liang Yongchang married later ran off with all of Liang Dajiang and Liang Yongchang's savings."

After speaking, Liang Yili stared intently at Liang Ruotao's face, not missing a single reaction.

Seeing Liang Ruotao frown, Liang Yili's heart, which had been hanging in suspense the whole way, instantly jumped into her throat.

She knew it!

Unlike her sister, her older sister had already lived a lifetime and seen through Liang Yongchang's true colors.

Even though she didn't say it, she must have longed for her father's love deep down, right?

"All the money was taken?"

Liang Ruotao's pupils suddenly contracted, her brows furrowed in shock.

Liang Yili nodded: "Yes, sis..."

"Now that they're out of money, will they turn their attention to us?" Liang Ruotao asked worriedly, her brow furrowed.

Liang Yili took a moment to react, then her eyes widened: "Sister~"

"What? You think I'm worried about whether he lives or dies?"

Liang Ruotao looked at Liang Yili with a complicated expression, containing emotions that Liang Yili couldn't understand.

"From the moment I severed ties with my family, I felt as if I had sprung from a stone."

Worrying about him? Ha, not at all!

Liang Yili breathed a sigh of relief for no apparent reason, but then her heart tightened, and a trace of heartache flashed in her eyes:

"Sister, you still have me. I will always be with you."

As time went by, Liang Yili discovered many details that she hadn't noticed in her previous life.

For example, my sister, who is always gentle and kind, has never visited our mother's grave.

It seems that he is not very sad about his mother's death?

For example, her sister's attitude towards Liang Yongchang was not as she had thought, as she longed for her father's love.

Perhaps, something happened somewhere she was unaware of?

But seeing that Liang Ruotao was clearly unwilling to talk about it, Liang Yili suppressed her curiosity.

"Sis, to avoid being stalked by this scoundrel, we need to think carefully about how to deal with him."

……

"Was it you? Did you tell everyone?"

Wang Pandi, her hair disheveled, glared fiercely at Xiao Mei and questioned her menacingly.

Although Liang Dajiang didn't say anything, the malice in his eyes was almost tangible.

Seeing that Li Dong and Liang Yongchang were both staring at her fiercely, Xiao Mei subconsciously shrank her neck.

But the thought that Li Nuansi had run off with all the money made her unbearable.

Courage returned to her, and she retorted, "It was me who said it, so what?"

Are we just going to let her run off with the money?

"Did you think about Dongdong before you did this? Our Dongdong is a future college student..."

Xiao Mei rolled her eyes: "You said it yourself, that's the future! We haven't even solved the problems in the present, so what's the point of talking about the future?"

Dongdong, Dongdong, all you ever do is talk about Dongdong.

A prospective college student who hasn't even started yet?

Who knows if he'll even pass the exam?

Wang Pandi was furious, her finger trembling as she pointed at Xiao Mei:

"You! It's our money that's being lost. We can do whatever we want. Why are you meddling in our business?"

"Mother, I don't like hearing you say that."

What do you mean by "your money"?

Have we separated?

Over the years, has your eldest brother ever taken care of you?

"Isn't it us, the second wife, who are taking care of you?"

As Xiao Mei spoke, she sneered, "When they need someone to take care of them, they only know to come to our second branch of the family."

Does dividing the money mean it's none of our business?

There is no such thing in the world!"

Li Dong shrank back, looked at Wang Pandi and Xiao Mei, whose faces were flushed, and quietly moved to Liang Yongchang's side.

"dad."

Liang Yongchang lifted his eyelids: "What's wrong?"

"School starts in less than a month."

"Oh, that's a good thing!"

"When you get to school, study hard. Warmth... what she most hopes for is to see you get into university." Liang Yongchang said with a melancholy look on his face.

A mist welled up in Li Dong's eyes. He sniffed and nodded vigorously: "I will!"

He then glared fiercely at Xiao Mei.

He had always harbored a fantasy that Li Nuansi would come back.

But with Xiao Mei's outburst, Li Nuansi's last chance of returning has vanished.

Seeing the white hair that had grown in Liang Yongchang in just a few days, Li Dong continued to call out, "Dad~"

"Ok?"

What about tuition fees?

Liang Yongchang looked blank for a moment before vaguely asking, "Tuition fees?"

"I heard that the tuition for the first semester of the first year of high school is 300 yuan."

Liang Yongchang's confused mind went blank for a long time.

She looked up at Liang Dajiang: "Father."

"Ok?"

"Dongdong is about to start school, and the tuition is 300 yuan."

Liang Yongchang did not deliberately lower his voice when he said this.

Xiao Mei's heart skipped a beat when she saw Liang Dajiang staring straight at her.

“My Chenchen also needs to go to school, but I don’t have the money.”

"Your second son has been working outside all this time, how could you not have any money in your pocket?"

It's not that I'm not going to pay you back; I'm just borrowing it for now.

"Once Dongdong gets into university, he'll definitely take good care of you, his second aunt."

Liang Dajiang suppressed his earlier dissatisfaction and offered some advice.

Thinking of the two elders' pockets being emptied by theft, Xiao Mei's eyes flickered a few times: "I want to separate the family!"

"what?"

"I said I wanted to separate from the family."

The elderly couple's hearts were clearly set on the future; they didn't have a single penny in their pockets.

With Liang Yongchang's meager salary, the eldest son's family probably couldn't even afford to support Li Dong's education.

If the elderly couple were to suddenly suffer from mental illness, wouldn't they have to rely entirely on their second wife?

"I want to separate the family!"

"Want to split up the family? Only if I'm dead!"

As soon as she finished speaking, something flashed through Wang Pandi's mind, her eyes suddenly brightened, she pushed Xiao Mei aside and walked up to Liang Yongchang.

"Yongchang, I heard that those two ingrates have made quite a bit of money lately."

Liang Yongchang was taken aback.

They seemed not to realize who the ingrate Wang Pandi was referring to was.

You don't know yet, do you?

Those two brats set up a stall outside every day, claiming they've invented some kind of cold jelly and are making money for the whole Huajia Village!

I heard they made a lot of money!

Just like their dim-witted mother, she never brings good things home.

You're their father, and they're being immature, so you have to teach them a lesson!

Go find them tomorrow and ask them to hand over the recipe for jelly!

And besides, what's a girl like you doing carrying so much money? Go and ask her for it all!
