The disciple of Yue Lao

Chapter 114 Lan Hui brought his girlfriend here
"Madam, why do you suddenly want to sell this nice, high-end furniture of yours?"

"I don't like it anymore."

Inside a furniture store.

Wei Shuzhen asked a taxi to bring a truckload of furniture, intending to sell it to the owner of the furniture store.

Judging from the boss’ discerning eyes and unsurprised expression, this shouldn’t be their first transaction.

The owner of the furniture store pretended to check the furniture Wei Shuzhen brought, and then said seriously: "Okay, I won't lie to you. If you sell all of these to me, I'll give you the same price as last time."

The price last time?

Wei Shuzhen was obviously dissatisfied. She pointed to a pile of furniture on the ground and replied, "These are much more expensive than the last one. You have to pay me twice as much."

The furniture store owner knew that Wei Shuzhen wanted to sell the furniture as soon as possible, so he deliberately lowered the price. Facing her proposal, he said with embarrassment: "Madam, this is really not possible..."

"Old Wang..." Wei Shuzhen began to bargain, and then said, "Tell me the truth, aren't these my good things? Any of them are better than the ones in your store, right? If it weren't for your kindness, I would be able to sell these high-quality and high-end things anywhere."

Boss Wang knew Wei Shuzhen's bottom line. When he saw that she was starting to bargain, he replied directly: "Madam, you know that I can't make much money from this small business. You want so much, I would like to give it to you, but I can't afford it! I also have to support my family. Everyone in my family depends on my income! It's different for you. You live in a nine-story villa. Any piece of furniture is a sky-high price to me. You don't mind this little money!"

"Don't say those nonsense to me." Wei Shuzhen looked unhappy and said, "You spent money to buy these furniture, and you will have to sell them at a high price in the future. By then, not to mention double the money, you can easily get it back. Just tell me whether you will give it to me or not. If you don't, I will call a car to take it away and sell it to another store."

Seeing Wei Shuzhen's serious expression, Boss Wang finally gave in and said with embarrassment: "At most... I'll give you half the money. If you still think it's not worth it, then you can call a car to take it away!"

The last three sets of furniture sold for 120 million. If the three sets this time were half as much, that would be... 180 million, which adds up to 300 million.

Wei Shuzhen calculated and agreed: "Okay! Give me the money!"

"Madam, you are really good at bargaining! 180 million, I really didn't make a penny from you." Boss Wang said as he took out his mobile phone and gave it to Wei Shuzhen to "scan the code to transfer money."

After receiving the money, Wei Shuzhen took a taxi back to Nanshan Villa without stopping.

Lan Hui and his girlfriend came today. Wei Shuzhen asked Wang Guihua to buy groceries early in the morning. Xiaotian went to school, Lan Yue and Lan Feng were both at work, so Wei Shuzhen was the only one at home.

After selling most of the furniture in the villa, Wei Shuzhen quickly contacted the courier company while no one was at home and moved the "high-quality imitations" she had selected based on the original brand-name furniture and purchased online into the villa.

Originally, for convenience, she sold some sofas for the living room. Later, when Wei Shuzhen found that Wang Guihua became suspicious, she no longer thought about selling living room furniture.

In order to prevent Lan Yue from discovering, the furniture that Wei Shuzhen later sold was all from the third, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth floors where the family rarely went.

Not long after the high-end imitation furniture was installed, Wang Guihua came back with a basket of vegetables and ran into several people from the installation company in plain clothes leaving the villa. Wei Shuzhen lied that they were her relatives from the countryside who came to visit the villa where she lived.

Wang Guihua was still confused, so she secretly checked all the furniture on the first floor. Except for the sofa, all the other furniture were original and authentic. Only then did she feel at ease and went back to the kitchen to cook her meal.

"Ding Dong!" The doorbell rang.

It was the first time that Wei Shuzhen ran so fast. When she opened the door and saw Lan Hui and his girlfriend, she greeted them with a smile, "Hey, Xiao Hui and Xiao Ling are here? Come in, please."

"Thank you, Auntie." Feng Xiaoling said with a smile.

As soon as they entered the door, not to mention Feng Xiaoling, even Lan Hui, was like "Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden", and everything they saw was amazing.

"Xiaoling, don't be polite, just sit down." Wei Shuzhen spoke softly to Feng Xiaoling, and then called to Wang Guihua who was busy in the kitchen: "Guihua, bring out a plate of fresh fruit."

When Wang Guihua heard Wei Shuzhen's cry, she reluctantly put down the kitchen knife in her hand, washed her hands, and came to the living room with the fruit, saying with a smile, "Madam, here is the fruit you asked for."

Seeing Feng Xiaoling's surprised look, Wei Shuzhen quickly introduced: "Oh... I forgot to introduce her. This is our nanny. The children all call her 'Auntie Gui'."

Wang Guihua was also shocked when she saw Feng Xiaoling's first reaction, but neither of them said anything, they just smiled at each other somewhat unnaturally.

Putting down the fruit, Wang Guihua returned to the kitchen to continue her work, and Wei Shuzhen continued her performance.

"Xiaohui..." Feng Xiaoling looked around and found that there were two elevators in the living room. She was surprised and said, "So you really live in a villa? I counted them outside just now and there are nine floors in total. I was wondering if going up and down the stairs would be tiring! I didn't expect there is an elevator here. It's amazing."

Lan Hui saw that Wei Shuzhen had a complicated expression. After listening to Feng Xiaoling's words, he smiled awkwardly: My sister lives in a big villa. She is so powerful and rich. I just saw it!

"Eat some fruit." Wei Shuzhen was afraid that Feng Xiaoling would be embarrassed to take it, so she took the initiative to pick a big apple and handed it to her, saying with a smile, "Don't be restrained, just treat it as your own home."

"Look, my mom treats you so well!" Lan Hui pretended to be jealous and said to Feng Xiaoling, "She gives you fruit but never gives me any."

"Here, here..." Wei Shuzhen said with a smile, and also took an apple for Lan Hui.

While eating an apple, Feng Xiaoling said to Lan Hui with some regret: "It's all your fault. I told you to come earlier, but you insisted on coming today. If you had come earlier, we could have attended my sister and brother-in-law's wedding."

"I'm just worried that I'll be too busy that day and won't be able to take care of you..." Lan Hui explained.

In fact, he had discussed this with his mother, but she disagreed. The reason was: if one less person went, they would have to pay less.

"Right, right, right..." Wei Shuzhen agreed. Fearing that Feng Xiaoling might have some thoughts, she added, "Although Xiaohui's sister is married, her new house is being renovated and she won't move in for a few months. If you want to see his sister, you can see her when she gets home from get off work in the evening. Not only Xiaohui's sister, you will also meet his brother Lan Feng and his eldest nephew Xiaotian!"

"My eldest nephew?" Feng Xiaoling looked at Wei Shuzhen in confusion and asked with a smile, "Aunt, did my sister and brother-in-law get married because of pregnancy? How old is the child?"

Wei Shuzhen didn't know how to answer for a moment. She didn't want to admit that "Lan Yue had a child out of wedlock" anyway. For the sake of face, she had to lie: "They actually got the marriage certificate a long time ago, but they just never made it public. The child was fourteen years old, so they thought of holding a wedding. It can be regarded as fulfilling the wish of an old lady like me. After all, if there is no wedding, everyone will think that my daughter is not married yet! After the wedding, they will be more 'legitimate' to be together, and they don't need to be pointed at by others!"

"Wow! Auntie is so thoughtful!" Feng Xiaoling said with a smile.
