80s: The cold-faced tough guy was controlled by the beautiful woman

Chapter 440 A Generous Response

The next day, after paying respects to Bian's father, Li Yingtang and Qin Xian followed the funeral procession around the streets and stayed at the Bian family home for a large feast.

When the event ended, I said goodbye to Qiao Yuanyue.

Invite them to come over for a visit.

Bian Zheng said, "I'll go when I have time tomorrow."

Li Yingtang ignored him and only said to Qiao Yuanyue, "Goodbye, Sister Yuanyue."

"Hey, be careful on the road."

Li Yingtang responded and left with Qin Xian.

The car's rear end flashed by and drove far away.

Bian Zheng said with a dark face, "You're looking down on people!"

Qiao Yuanyue frowned: "Who are you talking about?"

“Your younger brother,” Bian Zheng said unhappily, “thinks he’s all that just because he has a little money. He comes here and puts on airs. His wife is the worst kind of person. She won’t even look at me or my mother.”

Qiao Yuanyue retorted, "Why is that young wife looking at you? Why is she looking at our mother? You're not her husband, and our mother isn't her mother-in-law."

Bian Zheng choked: "In short, neither of them are good people."

Qiao Yuanyue: "If he's not a good person, why are you looking for him?"

She hadn't originally planned to invite her younger brother and sister-in-law, but he insisted on inviting them.

She reluctantly gave him the address.

She thought the couple wouldn't pay any attention to him, but he came all this way. Afraid of delaying her business, he arranged his own accommodation. What a great friend.

Bian Zheng choked again: "In short, don't come here to play anymore. What a jerk."

Qiao Yuanyue: "Okay, I'll send the money over tomorrow."

Bian Zheng: "How much money? I don't care about their money."

Qiao Yuanyue: "Didn't your mother say this morning? The person gave 500 yuan as a wedding gift."

Most relatives pay five yuan.

That's a lot of money, it's already an extraordinary amount.

My younger brother and sister-in-law also felt sorry for her because she wasn't living a good life. Where else could they find such a good person?

Bian Zheng's eyes widened: "Five hundred? Well, then let's keep it and reluctantly become relatives with them."

Qiao Yuanyue secretly rolled her eyes at him, thinking to herself, "If it weren't for my sake, would he even bother with you?"
Li Yingtang and Qin Xian returned to Yanjing in the evening.

Step through the gate.

Aunt Wang told her that Ding Xuan had brought her child over and they were in the living room.

Li Yingtang walked over and greeted her: "Xuanxuan."

The child ran over and hugged her: "Mommy, you're finally back! I missed you so much!"

Li Yingtang smiled and patted the child's head.

Ding Xuan said, "Tuantuan said you went to her aunt's house for a funeral. She has an aunt?"

Li Yingtang: "My great-aunt Ah-Xian sponsored an older sister's schooling before she passed away, and that's how the two of them started to have contact."

"So that's it."

Li Yingtang's gaze fell on the baby: "Baby, you'll be staying at your aunt's house tomorrow. From now on, your older sister will play with you every day."

"Okay," Jia Ruoyu agreed readily.

Ding Xuan said with some concern, "Ying Tang, you have to call me when you cry, I'll come and keep him company."

Li Yingtang: "If you're worried, why don't you stay at my place?"

"No, I'll head back now." Ding Xuan picked up her bag, said goodbye to the child, and left.

With the addition of a child, life became more lively.

Li Yingtang got off work early that day. After coaxing Jia Ruoyu to drink his medicine, Aunt Wang led Ding's mother into the house.

Seeing the bowl of medicine in her hand and smelling the medicine in the air.

She exclaimed in surprise, "What's wrong with my baby?"

"Grandma," Jia Ruoyu greeted her warmly.

Li Yingtang: "Hello, Auntie. Didn't Xuanxuan tell you about her spleen deficiency?"

Ding's mother picked up the child: "No, they said your father misses the child. Is your father here?" She looked around as she asked the question.

Li Yingtang: "I'm going out."

Then Ding's mother continued, "Yingtang, I'm not trying to be mean, but now that the child is older and easier to take care of, he's suddenly remembered. When he was little, I took care of him every single time he needed help. You be the judge, is it appropriate to give the child to him now?"

Li Yingtang remained silent; she was the one who benefited.

What are you saying?

Ding's mother kept complaining: "Your father only talks about money, but my family doesn't lack it."

Li Yingtang was indeed as quiet as a chicken.

Ding Ying invested in him in his early years and has been giving him dividends for the past few years.

Moreover, he himself has a very good eye for talent, and he has almost never failed in the projects he has chosen.

They have already achieved financial freedom.

He was also generous to his family and friends, giving his mother red envelopes with amounts starting at six figures during holidays.

Ding's mother didn't care about her father-in-law's money at all.

"Yingtang, say something!" Ding's mother pleaded anxiously for a long time, but received no response.

Li Yingtang carefully chose her words: "Auntie, you've worked so hard these past few years. As for the issue of my father-in-law taking care of the child, I'm the one who benefits. Tuantuan couldn't be separated from her grandfather when she was little, but now that she's in school, he doesn't have time to be with her. If you want to blame someone, blame me. My parents aren't around, and the people I trust don't have time to help me take care of the child. I don't really trust strangers either, so I can only rely on my child's grandfather."

Upon hearing this, Ding's mother's expression softened: "I'm not criticizing you. It's your father's attitude."

"He's not very good with words, please calm down." Li Yingtang personally poured tea for Ding's mother. Ding's mother thought to herself, if he's not good with words, how could Jia Qingfeng be so eloquent?

Wasn't it him who taught you?

“Yingtang, let me tell you this upfront: your father needs to take care of the child now, and I will not give him any.”

Li Yingtang nodded: "I will personally deliver the child to you once he has recovered."

Ding's mother: "He's perfectly healthy."

Li Yingtang understood. After going through all this trouble, Ding's mother's goal was to take the child away immediately so that the child's grandfather would suffer.

Why torture people like this?

The father-in-law had suffered many hardships, and he finally managed to move Ah-Xian's heart, but then his adopted son's mother-in-law made him suffer.

She said, "It's not obvious on the surface, but it actually needs conditioning. Ah-Xian personally prescribed the formula. If you don't believe me, you can take it with you. I'm also going to make this clear upfront: if any problems arise later, don't try to shirk responsibility by saying that no one reminded you or that you didn't understand."

Li Yingtang's attitude became slightly firm, which made Ding's mother uneasy.

Her son is unmarried, and she only has this one grandson born to her daughter, whom she raised herself. If anything happens to him, she will be the first to feel sorry for him.

"How long will it take to recover?" Ding's mother asked.

Li Yingtang: "You'll have to ask Ah Xian."

Ding's mother added, "These medicines can be brewed at my house just as well."

“My housekeeper has plenty of experience in brewing medicine and knows how to control the heat. Are you sure you want to brew it yourself?” Li Yingtang passed the question and responsibility back to Ding’s mother.

Ding's mother couldn't bear the responsibility: "Alright, I'll stay at your house. Can you take good care of her?"

Li Yingtang: "If you stay here during the day, I won't hire a housekeeper. But if you're not here, I'll hire one."

She has a lot of things to do at home, and having another child undoubtedly increases the workload for Aunt Wang and Aunt Yu.

If she neglected anything regarding the child, she wouldn't be able to explain it to Ding Xuan.

Ding's mother: "I'm staying here? That would be so embarrassing!"

"It's alright, we're family." Li Yingtang was very good at talking.

Ding's mother smiled again: "If I had met you two years earlier, I would definitely have Xiao Ying pursued you and made you my daughter-in-law."

Li Yingtang responded generously: "Then why didn't you meet me two years earlier?"

"No one introduced us," Ding's mother said with a smile.

Li Yingtang smiled and steered the conversation toward Ding Ying: "What's Brother Ding been busy with lately?"

"I don't know, we never see him all day. We ask him to go on blind dates, but he always makes excuses. He's with you guys a lot, so tell me the truth, does he like men?"

Li Ying: "You, as a mother, don't understand, how would I know?"

Ding Ying's sexual orientation should be normal.

She'd seen him stare at beautiful women, and it seemed no different from how she looked at handsome men.

Maybe I haven't met someone who makes my heart flutter.

Like her, she has seen all kinds of handsome men, but she has no intention of developing a harem.

Said Cao Cao, Cao Cao.

Aunt Wang led Ding Ying into the main courtyard.

"Yingtang, what brings you home today?" Ding Ying glanced at his mother and greeted Li Yingtang.

Li Yingtang: "Trick your nephew into taking his medicine."

Ding Ying smiled and said, "I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."

Li Yingtang exchanged pleasantries with him: "It's not that serious."

Ding's mother asked, "What are you doing here?"

"I'd like to ask you something." Ding Ying learned from Ding Xuan that Ding's mother had come to Li Yingtang's house. Worried that she and Jia Yan would quarrel and make things awkward for both of them, he rushed over.

Fortunately, Li Yingtang was at home.

This argument won't escalate into a fight.

Ding's mother said, "Why are you asking me? Mind your own business. You're over thirty and don't even have a boyfriend. When my old friends meet me, they ask if I'm married or not. I can't even lift my head up."

Ding Ying: "Then you should keep your head down."

Li Yingtang listened to Ding's mother's complaints and thought they were exaggerated. When she heard Ding Ying speak, she covered her mouth and secretly laughed.

Anger welled up in Ding's mother's heart, but she couldn't vent it in front of Li Yingtang: "You, I really don't know what you're thinking."

Ding Ying didn't respond, but instead asked Li Yingtang about Jia Ruoyu's condition: "Xuanxuan said Ruoyu has indigestion, what's the reason?"

“Ah-Xian said it might be indigestion, or it might be due to eating too much every day, leading to spleen deficiency. Auntie, when you feed him, does he eat a lot?” Li Yingtang then followed up on Ding Ying’s words and raised her doubts.

Ding's mother: "How can eating too much cause a problem?"

Li Yingtang: "Yes, children's digestive function is not so good. If they eat too much, they will have food accumulation, which will affect their health."

Ding Ying: "It must be because you fed him too much. I saw you feeding him again several times after he had eaten. The child wouldn't eat, but you chased after him to feed him."

Ding's mother said aggrievedly, "He's too thin. I want him to gain some weight."

Ding Ying sighed, "With you like this, you still urge me to get married and have children. How much suffering will the child endure if they end up in your hands?"

Ding's mother cried in anger. Was it easy for her to take care of the child?
He's so inconsiderate, talking like that.

Seeing this, Ding Ying felt a little guilty: "I shouldn't have said that, Mom. Please be more careful next time. Or you could stop taking care of him and let Uncle Jia take care of him. He's experienced in taking care of children. Isn't Tuantuan good? He's chubby, fair-skinned, and clever."

He remembers that when he was little, his mother was busy with work, so he spent most of his time with his grandparents.

My mother has absolutely no experience taking care of children.

When Ruoyu and Tuantuan are together, they seem particularly dull.

Ding's mother was too preoccupied with her grief to refute him.

Ding Ying was a little embarrassed and wanted to ask Li Yingtang to persuade her, but when she looked up, she was gone, along with Ruoyu.

He chuckled silently, as if she had started it all, and then, seeing things weren't going well, she actually ran away.
