Sweet Nostalgia of the 80s

Chapter 1363: Chapter 1363: No Need to Look at the Little Wretch’s Face

Qin Ru Hai knew his wife was about to bring up the bracelet again, and his head buzzed with annoyance. ”Is this something we’ll never get past?”

”Yes!” Li Junping grew angrier the more she thought about it. ”Why should my money be spent supporting them? No way, I must go and ask An Hao if her conscience can rest easy?”

Seeing Li Junping getting ready to stir up trouble again, he hurriedly called her back with a sharp reprimand, ”You stay right there! Don’t go looking for trouble.”

”What do you mean, ’looking for trouble’? I have to find out how much that bracelet was really sold for. Shouldn’t the extra money be given to me?” That bracelet had become Li Junping’s obsession.

If she didn’t resolve this fixation, she would never live peacefully again.

”Stop right there! An Hao already gave me that money!” Qin Ru Hai had been keeping it from Li Junping these past few days, fearing her boastful nature wouldn’t keep it a secret.

After all, it was a large sum of money.

Even if they squandered it, they wouldn’t have to worry for the rest of their lives.

”What? Gave it to you? Am I hearing this right?” Li Junping doubted her ears.

”No, you heard right,” Qin Ru Hai replied truthfully.

Li Junping’s eyes lit up instantly. ”You cunning old man, why didn’t you tell me anything about it? How much did she give you?”

”Why do you need to know? Isn’t it enough that you have money to spend?” said Qin Ru Hai.

”Nonsense! Of course, I need to know, I must! How much money, tell me the truth!” Li Junping became so insistent that she didn’t even bother to make lunch.

Harassed to death by her, Qin Ru Hai had no choice but to lie to her, ”She gave ten thousand!”

”What? Ten thousand! That’s a lot!!!” Li Junping was finally appeased, ”Ten thousand yuan, my god! Our family is a well-off household now?”

”I suppose so.”

”This is just fantastic.” Li Junping was overjoyed, ”From now on, I won’t have to worry about food or clothing. We have money for our son’s treatment. I won’t have to endure the sneers of that little wench from the An Family.”

”How can you talk like that? What’s wrong with An Hao? I really don’t know where your prejudice comes from.”

While the two were talking, An Shuchao arrived and heard Li Junping badmouthing An Hao, which was particularly unpleasant to his ears.

Thank goodness, Qin Ru Hai knew to defend An Hao. Otherwise, he would have truly lost his temper.

An Shuchao cleared his throat twice, walked in with his hands clasped behind his back, and didn’t even glance at Li Junping. Instead, he went straight to Qin Ru Hai and said, ”In-law! Are you busy?”

As soon as Qin Ru Hai saw An Shuchao, he hurriedly placed a stool in front of him, ”In-law, you’re here? Please have a seat!”

An Shuchao waved his hand, ”No need. I’m here to invite you over to my place for a drink.”

”Is.... Is that appropriate?” Right now, the Qin Family was being scorned in the village, and he feared it would be disgraceful to go without any regard.

”It’s appropriate,” An Shuchao said. ”Don’t overthink it. In-law, putting aside the relationship between our two families, we brothers don’t have any issues with each other, right?”

”Yes, you’re right about that,” Qin Ru Hai agreed.

”Let’s not talk about anything else, let’s go! Call Song Fei to join us as well!”

”Well... okay then,” Qin Ru Hai consented.

”Okay, what okay? Not okay!” Li Junping vehemently refused, pointing at Qin Ru Hai and scolding, ”You really don’t care, do you! What has become of our son because of them? And you still want to go drink? Are we short of money? Are you so eager for their banquet? Our son’s coming home today, what will he think if he knows you went to the An Family’s house?”
