Chapter 115: seventieth birthday
Chapter 115 Seventieth Birthday
Eating a meal is so satisfying that you don’t know how to taste it.
The atmosphere was a bit awkward. After the meal, Xia Ling hurriedly said goodbye.
After returning to her room, she felt a little more comfortable. She looked at the fragments of real estate certificates on the floor under the sofa, but she felt dazed again. What kind of messed up life is this? Pei Ziheng chased him more and more closely, and so did Li Lei...
When did her life become a mess?
The phone rings.
Xia Ling reached out to pick it up: "Hello?"
"Xiao Ling?" A middle-aged man's voice came from the other end of the phone.
Xia Ling was startled, and it took her a few seconds to remember who the other person was - Father Ye, the father of this body in her life. After no contact for a long time, Xia Ling asked, "What's the matter with you?"
Ye's father's voice was a little awkward. Ever since the last time Xia Ling came home, he and Ye's mother deceived her into Ye Xingfei's ward and asked her to face Pei Ziheng. They have never been in contact again. Father Ye felt guilty, feeling that he was nothing and sorry for his daughter, but what could be done?
At that time, Pei Ziheng threatened and induced them. He was afraid of Pei Ziheng and could not withstand his wife's persuasion. His wife said that the money Boss Pei was willing to pay was enough for their family of three to live without worries about food and clothing.
Yes, a family of three.
Ye's father, Ye's mother, Ye Xingfei.
They did not include "Ye Xingling". To this family, she was like an outsider.
Father Ye adjusted his tone and said to Xia Ling as kindly as possible: "Xiao Ling, don't bear any grudge against us for what happened last time. Dad and your Aunt Liu both have their own reasons..."
Difficulties? Xia Ling sneered, she was just selling her daughter out of selfishness.
But she was too lazy to expose him. She was a person with no emotions to begin with. No matter whether he betrayed her or deceived her, it would not stir up the slightest disturbance in her heart. "Dad, let's get down to business, I'm very busy," she said. She didn't believe that Father Ye called specifically to apologize. If he really wanted to apologize, he wouldn't have delayed it until now.
Father Ye smiled awkwardly, "Xiao Ling, your grandma is celebrating her seventieth birthday. Several of your aunts, uncles, and cousins will go to celebrate her birthday, and our family will also go. Look, please tidy up. , Come back to the countryside with us in a few days?"
When he said this, Xia Ling remembered.
According to the memory of the original owner of the body, it was indeed time for Grandma Ye’s seventieth birthday. This old grandma is very good to "Ye Xingling". When she was a child, "Ye Xingling"'s father ignored her after marrying her stepmother Aunt Liu. Only grandma Ye loved her, providing her with extra clothes in the cold winter and escaping the heat in the hot summer. Grandma Ye takes care of everything.
The original owner of the body was very close to Grandma Ye.
Xia Ling thought that since she had taken over someone else's body, she had to fulfill her filial duty, so she agreed: "I will go."
Ye's father was very happy, but then he hesitated.
“Is there anything else?” Xia Ling was a little impatient.
Ma Liu's harsh voice came from outside the phone: "You're a worthless thing. I just asked you to open your mouth to your daughter. You can't even open your mouth. Are you mute or something? Let me tell you, I am the birthday gift money of that old woman." It won’t happen. If you have the nerve, go empty-handed, or else ask your daughter for it!” Xia Ling frowned as she heard this, what’s the fuss about?
Father Ye took a deep breath and finally made up his mind: "Xiao Ling, you are a big star now... Well, that's it. You also know the situation at home, and it is not well-off. Look, your grandma's birthday gift , can you prepare it?”
Xia Ling sneered. This was what her stepmother, Aunt Liu, had planned!
With his greed for money to a certain level, he can even plan birthday gifts for the elderly. However, even if they didn't tell them, Xia Ling would have prepared them. In her memory, Grandma Ye's legs and feet were not good and she would feel sore from the cold in winter. She thought about buying a better pair of warm clothes for the old man. . Clothes are a mixed bag on the market, and the ingredients listed may not be trustworthy. Fortunately, she had worn some good clothes in her previous life, and she could identify them by feel, and she also knew several good clothing stores.
“I’ll prepare it.” She said coldly.
“What are you going to buy?” Father Ye asked. There is no way, my wife has a death order. Not only does she want Xia Ling to prepare a birthday gift, but she also said, don’t use the cheap one, but the best one. Don’t let others look down upon you!
Xia Ling thought about it and guessed his intention. She sneered slightly and asked, "What are you going to let me buy?"
"This..." Father Ye hesitated for a moment, then said, "Your fourth uncle's family is in business. He said that this time he will give your grandma a mahogany bed. We have a big star like you in our family, and relatives all say, No matter what, it can’t be worse than your fourth uncle’s house.”
Do all the relatives say?
She thinks it was Aunt Liu, the stepmother, who said it!
Xia Ling was noncommittal: "I have a sense of discretion."
hang up the phone.
It's sad to think about it. How many months has she been in the industry? Some time ago, she was so blackmailed that she didn't even get a single phone call from her family to express condolences. Now that she needed money, she rushed over and opened her mouth.
superstar?
She smiled. Have you ever seen a big star who is as poor as she is? Ye's father seemed to have forgotten that in order to treat Ye Xingfei's illness, she borrowed a large debt from Wentianyi, amounting to several million, and it has not been paid off yet.
Nowadays, in order to save face among their relatives, they always say "the value is no less than a mahogany bed"?
“Why don’t you go and grab it?” Xia Ling muttered in a low voice and kicked the pile of torn property certificates of Qingshan Waterside Villa beside her feet. Unexpectedly, she recalled Li Lei’s tyranny when he tore it up. It's great to be rich. A villa worth tens of millions can be torn up at will. When will she be so rich and willful?
Be my girlfriend...
In his mind, Li Lei's handsome face appeared again, speaking seductive and depraved words in a deep magnetic voice. Xia Ling scratched her hair in annoyance and silently went to find a broom to clean up the debris on the ground.
The next day, she counted her savings and asked Sister Maina and Wei Shaoyin to borrow some money to buy clothes. To be precise, I was going to help Grandma Ye customize a set of pure camel hair lining and trousers.
She knows a good custom shop, but it is membership only and does not accept outsiders.
In her last life, she did have a membership card, but in this life she is far from the level to apply for a card.
Xia Ling was very troubled. Sister Maina said carelessly: "Look for the BOSS. The BOSS is omnipotent."
Xia Ling shook her head and rejected his love. It was too embarrassing to go to him at this time. Besides, she doesn't want to be too dependent on someone...dependence is really a terrible habit.
"Then there's nothing I can do," Sister Maina said nonchalantly, "S.S.D. This clothing store's membership card is notoriously difficult to get. How about you find another place?"
