Boss, He’s Becoming a Father (Arc 3) Chapter 69.6: The Son-In-Law of a Wealthy Family (56)
“Grandma, you love me so much. It just so happens that our teacher wants two thousand yuan for tutoring fees. I had a fight with my mom and don’t want to ask her for it.” Shao Qi said.
Mother Zheng was stunned when she heard this. She already felt very painful buying snacks for this girl every day, so how could she be willing to spend so much money?
“Qiqi, grandma also wants to pay for your tutoring, but the family really can’t come up with the money right now…” Mother Zheng began to act pitifully.
But Shao Qi said, “I saw the pair of sneakers on my brother’s feet. They cost 2,000 yuan a pair.”
Mother Zheng didn’t know what to say for a moment.
Shao Qi continued, “I thought grandma loved me the most, but I didn’t expect that you were reluctant to spend money on my studies, but you were willing to spend money on my younger brother.”
Mother Zheng didn’t expect that the little girl was so smart. She just said, “Those shoes…those shoes were bought by his father. We really can’t afford them…”
Shao Qi snorted coldly and said, “You said that Dad cares about me. He remembers to buy sneakers for my brother, but he is reluctant to spend money on my studies. You are lying to me. I don’t want to pay attention to you anymore.”
Mother Zheng didn’t expect that after she had worked so hard to feed Shao Qi for so many days, she would suddenly turn against her.
She didn’t want all her hard work to go to waste, so she could only say, “Here, here, here. I almost forgot that your father gave me some money.”
When Shao Qi heard the words, she smiled and said, “That’s great, I know you are the one who loves me the most.”
When Mother Zheng thought about giving the little girl two thousand yuan, she felt very uncomfortable, but she still hardened the pain and counted out two thousand yuan.
Shao Qi looked at the old lady’s wallet and said, “Grandma obviously has so much money, why did she lie to me and say she had no money just now?”
Mother Zheng immediately lied and said, “This is not grandma’s money. It’s grandma’s money borrowed.”
Shao Qi reluctantly agreed to show that he believed it, but then said, “My desk mate Hanhan bought a new pencil case, it’s really nice.”
When Mother Zheng heard this, she knew that the little girl wanted a new pencil case again. She had just given her two thousand yuan, so how could she bear to continue paying? She ignored the question.
Shao Qi continued, “That pencil case costs two hundred yuan.”
Mother Zheng immediately asked, “What is it made of? A pencil case costs so much.”
Shao Qi shook her head and said, “I don’t know what it’s made of, but it’s really beautiful. I really want one too.”
Mother Zheng said, “You are just a kid, don’t think about those fancy things, the most important thing is to concentrate on your studies.”
Shao Qi sighed and said, “I really envy Hanhan. Her grandparents really love her and buy her whatever she wants. Hanhan only took a look at this pencil case and her grandma bought it for her. I wish I had a grandma like this.”
“It’s a pity that I don’t have a grandmother like this.”
Mother Zheng cursed Shao Qi in her heart for being a debt collector, but now that things had come to this, she was in a dilemma. She could only grit her teeth and take out another two hundred yuan, saying, “Buy, buy all. If other granddaughters have something, my granddaughter must have something too. After all, I love you the most.”
Shao Qi took the money and immediately smiled happily, and said, “Grandma, Xiaohu who sits behind me, his grandma loves him very much, so she bought him…”
Before Shao Qi finished speaking, Mother Zheng immediately said in a hurry: “Qiqi, grandma suddenly remembered that the stove is still hot at home. Grandma will go back first and find you next time.”
Mother Zheng ran as if something was chasing her behind, for fear that she would have to pay more if she was slow.
Shao Qi looked at Mother Zheng’s back, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, then she turned and entered another alley, walked for more than ten minutes, and arrived at the door of a children’s welfare home, where she donated all the 2,200 yuan she had just received.
When she arrived at school the next day and saw Zheng Xiaolei, Shao Qi called him “brother” affectionately.
Zheng Xiaolei had been taught by his father and mother that Shao Qi was his elder sister, but he was not very nice to her.
Shao Qi didn’t care, but smiled and said, “Xiao Lei, grandma gave me a lot of money yesterday and said she would buy me a new pencil case. I forgot to say thank you. Can you thank grandma for me?”
Zheng Xiaolei thought about how he wanted to buy a game console yesterday but was rejected by his grandmother. When he heard what Shao Qi said, he immediately exploded.
