Chapter 216 The Eldest Daughter Left Behind 9

Grandma nodded. "I see. There's nothing I can't do at home. It's just buying some New Year's goods and cleaning the house. Besides, my son and his family will be back in two days, so I won't be tired."

Before grandma left, the four grandfathers held a family meeting. The old man, who always valued his son, broke with his usual attitude this time and forbad Xu Haibin and his wife to tell them the specific situation of the family. He only said that the house they lived in was bought with a loan and the shop was rented.

I was afraid that Xuanyunduo and her brother wouldn't understand, so I explained to them, "It's not that I want to hide it from your parents, but I'm afraid they won't work hard in the future. Our family fortune is for you to use when you grow up, and we can't let them squander it."

Xuanyunduo didn't comment, she just listened to whatever the old man said.

Not long after, before the grandfather and grandson returned, Xu Haibin and his wife came, and Xu Yang reluctantly led the way for them.

Ever since these two people heard that the old couple settled down and opened a shop in the city, they have been itching to come and take a look.

Xu Yang pouted and approached Xuanyunduo unhappily, "Sister, I was having a good time with my eldest cousin at home, but my parents insisted that I bring them here. They are so annoying."

Xuanyunduo touched her brother's head and comforted him, "It's okay, I just missed you. Let's play here for a few days and then go back. When mom and dad come back, I'll take you to the amusement park. Haven't you wanted to go there for a long time?"

Sure enough, when Xu Yang heard that they could go to the amusement park, his eyes lit up immediately, "Great, great, I heard from my classmates that there is a new haunted house in the amusement park, it's so fun, sister, when are my parents going back? I really want to go to the amusement park."

Xuanyundu looked at the little fool with pity. If she remembered correctly, children of his height should not be allowed to enter the haunted house.

The brother and sister were whispering to each other, while the old man was also annoyed by his son and daughter-in-law.

Seeing that his grandparents were doing well in business, Xu Haibin asked the old man how much money he could make. As long as the salary was not too low, he would quit his job and become his own boss.

The old man was almost mad at him and started to scold him, "With your stubborn mind and bad temper, what kind of business can you do? Do you know how much trouble it takes to run a business? If you come back to be the boss, what will your mother and I do? Do you know how many people lose money in business? Your mother and I have only earned this little over the years, and it's not even enough for you to pay back."

Xu Haibin was not convinced. He thought that since his grandparents, who were of such an old age, could run their business successfully, he would only be able to do better. After all, he was now a small leader in the factory.

Jiang Mei meant the same thing. She didn’t know that business could be so profitable before. She just saw how hard the old couple worked.

Now seeing this bright shop and an apartment in the city, her heart is also beating fast.

Hearing their parents arguing with grandpa, Xuanyunduo and his sister stopped talking and just stood aside and watched them.

Xu Haibin still insisted on coming to the store and inheriting it as the boss. "Dad, I haven't tried it yet, why do you think I can't do it? Besides, you and mom are old, just enjoy your life at home. If you're bored, just continue to set up a stall. I can't always be out there, right? I'll have to come back sooner or later, so why not come back and work hard while I'm still young?"

The grandfather was so angry at his son's shameless words that he felt dizzy. He held his head and swayed before he could stand steadily.

Xuanyunduo hurried forward to support him and took the opportunity to secretly take his pulse. The old man's body was in good condition because of her treatment. He was a little anxious at the moment, but he was old after all and could not be so stimulated, otherwise something bad would happen.

Xu Yang was terrified when he saw his grandfather's appearance. He rushed over and drove his parents out, "Get out, you bad guy! You are not allowed to bully my grandfather."

Xu Haibin was shocked by Xu Yang's action, but he quickly came to his senses and was so angry that he wanted to hit Xu Yang. "You little bastard, I'm your father, and this is how you talk to your father? This is outrageous. Do you think I won't teach you a lesson today?"

He raised his hands, but the old man stopped him, "You little bastard, don't you dare! My grandson is very good, there is no need for you to teach him a lesson. You don't behave like a son or a father, but you just act arrogantly. I, your father, am not dead yet, it is not your turn to call the shots in this family."

Although Xu Haibin was stopped by the old man and did not attack Xu Yang, he was still very unconvinced.

Especially since the old man lectured him in front of his wife and children, he felt humiliated.

Unable to let go of his pride, he had to say something harsh, "Dad, if you keep pampering him like this, be careful not to spoil him and turn him into an ungrateful person. You will regret it."

The old man was so angry that he took off his shoes and threw them at him, "I'm going to kill you first, you ungrateful wolf!"

Seeing that the old man was serious, Xu Haibin quickly ran out, cursing in dissatisfaction.

Xuanyunduo quickly helped the old man sit down on the bench, poured him a glass of water, secretly dropped a drop of water with energy in the space, and asked the old man to drink it to relieve the pain.

Jiang Mei didn't know what she was thinking, and she didn't go out with Xu Haibin, but was still standing in the store.

The noise in the store was quite loud just now, and not many people are coming in now.

After comforting the old man, Xuanyunduo brought a stool for her mother and asked her to sit on it. "Mom, must you be tired from the ride? Have a drink of water and take a rest."

Jiang Mei smiled as she watched her daughter honoring her. "Hey, Mom, aren't you tired? Is the store busy? Duoduo, are you tired working here?"

Xuanyunduo blinked her eyes, looking innocent, "Mom, I'm not tired. The business in the store is not as profitable as setting up a stall. The only difference is that I don't have to hide everywhere when it's windy or rainy."

Then he took a stool and sat next to Jiang Mei, holding her arm affectionately, and said coquettishly, "Mom, why does Dad want to come back? Is it hard to make money outside? Mom, I don't blame you. Grandma said that as long as the family is healthy, it doesn't matter how much money we have. She also said that men become bad when they have money, and it's fine without money. Mom, why do men become bad when they have money? If Dad has money, will he beat us? Like he wanted to beat Yangyang just now?"

Jiang Mei's expression kept changing as she listened to many words. She remembered that when she was giving birth at home, Xu Haibin almost cheated on her. She was so angry that her teeth were itching.

"Your grandma is right, men can't be rich! When they have money, they will have more thoughts. Don't worry, mom won't let your dad become a bad person."

Xuanyunduo rubbed Jiang Mei's arm, her tone full of trust, "Mom, you are so kind. A child with a mother is a treasure. Mom, I will definitely support you."

Jiang Mei hummed absentmindedly and called Xu Yang over. "How is Yangyang doing in school? Are your grades good? Do your classmates bully you?"
