Han Yi didnât like Shen Rong, Lin Wan could sense it, and had no feelings towards Shen Rongâs lover whom she hadnât met. With a distant politeness, she shook hands briefly and walked directly to Grandmaâs side.
Leaving Li Chang behind feeling a bit awkward, but Li Chang had thick skin and didnât feel distant because of Han Yiâs attitude.
He still had a warm smile on his face.
"You finally made it back, how long can you stay this time?" Han Ying saw Han Yi and the couple, her face brightened. She pulled Han Yi to sit down and quickly took the child from Lin Wanâs arms.
Chatted with the couple for a bit about family matters. Tan Aixiang, seeing Lin Wan had come to them, hurriedly said to the side to Shen Rong, "Rongrong, since youâre in a hurry, go ahead and take a walk outside. Your cousin is here, Iâll go buy some groceries and wonât be entertaining you."
"Saozi, Li Chang and I also came to see Grandma, and Little Daming by the way. Weâve been here half a day, why didnât we see this same enthusiasm, yet when cousin arrives you want to buy groceries. Iâm my brotherâs real sister, how come I donât even compare to a cousin?"
"Sigh, Rongrong, what do you mean by this, I just asked you earlier, you said youâre in a hurry and have things to do, how do you have time now to stay and eat?"
"I said I have things to do but didnât say I wonât eat here. Saozi, you clearly have money, not lending it to me is one thing, even when we eat at home youâre this disdainful. How did our Shen Family come to marry a white-eyed wolf like you?"
Bang!
Shen Rongâs words infuriated Tan Aixiang, and over here, Grandma banged a metal ceramic mug on the table in front of Shen Rong, her face flushed with anger. "How did our Shen Family give birth to such a shameless daughter? Get out, donât let me see you here."
Lin Wan and Han Yi quickly helped Grandma calm down.
Shen Rong still wanted to speak, but Li Chang secretly pulled Shen Rong to stop her.
"Grandma, I am your real granddaughter, even if Iâm married Iâm still your granddaughter, how can you say this about me?" Shen Rongâs tone weakened.
"Since youâre my granddaughter, I have the right to speak. If you donât want me to say anything, feel free to leave. I donât need you here."
"Grandma, Rongrong just speaks hastily, donât be angry. Today, weâre here just to see you. Calm down, Iâll talk to her properly when we get back. Saozi, donât be upset either. Later if the kitchen needs anything, have Rongrong do it... Rongrong, go help Saozi." Li Chang was adept at smoothing things over, handling it decently.
Shen Rong, who had just seemed arrogant, suddenly turned into a little lamb. "Sao... Saozi, what I said earlier was a bit too much, donât be mad."
"I donât dare" Tan Aixiang rolled her eyes and replied reluctantly.
Tan Aixiang put the child in the stroller, letting Lin Wan watch over, and went to buy groceries.
The house was left with Shen Rong and her husband, and their spouse. Little Daming was really mischievous, seeing Little Star he kept calling Little Bao Bao over and over, just starting to learn to speak, not very clear. Reaching out to go towards Little Star, Han Yi didnât want Little Damingâs little hands to touch his precious daughter. Little Daming insisted on grabbing, so Han Yi began playing "you chase, I hit" with Little Daming.
The couple teased the two children beside Grandma, while Shen Rong disdainfully pursed her lips. Li Chang moved closer to play with the children for a while.
"Unexpectedly, my cousin is not often home and the child is so close to you. I really envy you."
Han Yi held Little Damingâs hand, smiled slightly, and said, "Theyâre your children, no matter how far, theyâre close."
Li Chang laughed heartily, nodding, slightly awkward. After backing away, Li Changâs smile didnât stop, but his eyes glanced sideways at Shen Rong.
Shen Rong immediately understood, coughed lightly twice, and said to Lin Wan, "Cousin-in-law, I heard the clothes youâve been making are selling really well."
"Hmm, alright I guess, joint venture, lots of issues." "Anyway, cousin-in-lawâs business has picked up, youâve earned quite a bit. Weâve just built a house, owe quite a few debts, well, Li Chang came across an earning job earlier, just need some money. Cousin-in-law, cousin, can you lend us some first?"
"How much?" Han Yi didnât lift his head to look at her, he asked.
"One..."
"Two thousand," before Shen Rong could finish, Li Chang jumped in first with the amount, which also surprised Shen Rong.
Beside them, Han Ying was even more caught off guard, they hadnât said this number just now.
