Chapter 396 My Sister - Wasting All the Love
Chapter 396 My Sister - Wasting All the Love
Sun Xiaomei’s business was indeed successful, but not completely successful. All her money was invested in the operation of the store, and now she still needs funds to run it, so she thought of her parents again.
Because she thought of the old couple, Sun Xiaomei started to contact her parents in the past six months, asking about their well-being, buying them gifts, and paying them back a little money every month.
The old couple of the Sun family were coaxed into peace again, but they were afraid that their son and daughter-in-law had not yet moved on, so they deliberately acted cold, planning to wait for their daughter to come back, and once she admitted her mistake, they would negotiate a little and the brother and sister would be reconciled as before.
Sun Yu said to Li Gu carefully: "Wife, my mother said Xiaomei is back, let's go back and have dinner together."
"The child is too young, I don't want to bother with it."
"Just a meal. Xiaomei finally came back, why don't we go back and see her? If you'd like to eat, we can stay for an hour and then leave, okay?"
There was a pleading tone in Sun Yu's voice.
Li Gu was unwilling to offend her husband, so she nodded and agreed. She thought it was just a meal, so she had to give him the face. Sun Yu was good to her, and at least she had gotten through the hurdle of having a child. Many people live in harmony with their spouse, but they would quarrel constantly after having a child, but they were still harmonious for the time being.
After not seeing each other for more than a year, Sun Xiaomei's dress, speech and greetings have become much more mature. When they met, she greeted them warmly and took out the gifts she had prepared for her brother and his family of three. Even Zhou Leng got a small gift.
Zhou Leng was playing with the wooden doll in his hand, but he was alert in his heart. One year was not enough to change a person's character.
Sun Dashan and Bai Xiaohua looked at their daughter with pride. They were happy to see the family so happy. They just hoped that their children could live in harmony and love each other.
There is nothing wrong with the old couple's request, as every parent would think so. However, they need to be fair. Even if they are biased in their hearts, they still need to appear fair on the surface. Otherwise, sacrificing one person for the sake of the whole family will cause problems over time.
There was a problem in the Sun family. Everyone in the Sun family thought that it was Li Gu who caused Sun Yu's resistance. In fact, he just grew up and didn't want to compromise. Sun Yu was also a father and a husband, and it was not wrong for him to want to live an easy life.
Before dinner, Sun Dashan was busy in the kitchen, Sun Xiaomei was helping in the kitchen, and Bai Xiaohua was playing with the children in the living room. She said with a smile on her face:
"Son, I have discussed with your father and plan to sell this house."
Li Gu turned his head, Zhou Leng was speechless, and Sun Yu frowned.
Bai Xiaohua continued to smile, not noticing the strangeness of the three people. She said to herself, "Dacheng is much smarter now, but he still needs someone to take care of him. You and Li Gu should help him more and live a good life together with Dacheng."
Zhou Leng thought to himself, that's not what you said at the beginning. You despised me as a burden. Now you see I can make money to buy a house, and you can take care of your son again.
"Such a big house would be a waste for your father and I to live in it. Don't blame mom. Now that you are living a good life, you..."
Li Gu interrupted Bai Xiaohua and said:
"Mom, Xiaomei is doing well. She opened a clothing store and a hot pot restaurant that are both doing well. We can't make as much money as we do business. Xiaomei returned the 120,000 yuan to you. I'm relieved. I was afraid you would get angry."
Bai Xiaohua was choked by these words and couldn't say anything else.
Sun Xiaomei came out from the kitchen door and said, "Sister-in-law, I came back this time to pay Mom back, but I have to criticize you for one thing. Mom and Dad used all their life savings to buy this house. Now that you are living a good life, why can't you sell the house and return the money to Mom and Dad? Brother, don't you think so? You are not a greedy person."
Sun Yu looked at Sun Xiaomei with a gloomy face, his hands trembling with anger, and he gritted his teeth to calm himself down.
"Wife, pack your things and get dressed. You and brother go wait for me downstairs. I'll be right there."
Bai Xiaohua said in a panic: "What are you doing? We are talking peacefully and haven't even had our meal yet. Why are you leaving?"
Li Gu put clothes on the child, and Zhou Leng took the brother and sister's coats and backpacks. In less than three minutes, they arrived at the door, quickly put on their clothes, opened the door and left.
Sun Yu looked at his blood relatives with a gloomy face, and he almost choked up and said:
"I've seen through it a long time ago, but I'm still very sad. I can sell the house, but you won't get a penny of the money, and I won't take it. The money will be kept in the bank for my parents' retirement. If this money falls into your hands, Sun Xiaomei, what will happen to my parents in the future?"
"How did it end up in my hands? Didn't I tell you to give it to my parents? Besides, even if my parents lent it to me, I would just use it for a quick turnover and pay it back soon. I can write an IOU."
Sun Yu sneered.
"IOU? Now we're talking about IOUs! If you write one and don't pay it back, can I sue you? You don't have any property under your name, can I let you go to jail? What if my parents get sick and are hospitalized? Use my and Li Gu's marital property? You're just hoping that I'll get divorced."
Sun Yu put on his coat. The two people behind him kept trying to comfort, persuade and assure him, but he turned a deaf ear to them. Until before closing the door, he said:
"I will put the house up for sale and buy you two a small one near us. The house will be in my name. Li Gu won't want your money. I will provide for your old age. But I have done my best for Xiaomei. Don't mention money anymore. We can still get along well. I will send you living expenses on time every month. I will take care of you if you are sick and hospitalized. Sun Xiaomei, if you have a conscience, return the 120,000 yuan to your parents as soon as possible."
"Brother! You..."
The sound of the door closing prevented further conversation.
Only then did Sun Dashan come out of the kitchen.
Sun Yu opened the car door calmly. Looking at his wife's worried eyes, he pulled the corners of his mouth into a smile.
"Don't worry, I'm used to it. Now we have a child, I have to think about the child."
Sun Yu repeated the story of moving to a smaller house.
Li Gu nodded and said, "Don't worry. Although it is a marital property, I can't take it. I will write you a statement and sign it with your fingerprints to put your parents at ease."
"No, I believe you. If you don't write it again, they will be afraid that you will divorce me."
"Honey, you've changed."
"Yes, I have changed. If I don't change, I will suck your blood and feed you back. I know you. By then, we will have come to the end. I haven't had enough of you, so I can only change!"
Li Gu laughed out loud. Yes, he would not let others suck his blood.
There were three people left in the four-bedroom apartment, and Sun Xiaomei was still chattering:
"Family members should help each other. How can even blood relatives be so calculating? I need funds to turn around now. It's not enough to pay him interest when I recover! I can't afford to spend this little money on such a big store."
The old couple were silent.
Sun Dashan was still immersed in his son's last words. He looked at his excited daughter and said, "Let's eat first. I'll talk to your brother tomorrow. Let's eat."
Sun Dashan said this but he didn't really think so. In his heart, providing for his old age was the most important thing, so he allowed the three to clash in the living room. He didn't show up, and he didn't offend either side, so there was still room for maneuver. Who could provide for his old age was the most important thing!
