The game starts with being chased by ghosts and live fortune telling for free

Chapter 504: The middle-aged overbearing president falls in love with the cleaning lady (3)

Hearing her son's call, Shen Yan stopped exporting the quintessence of Chinese culture. The woman quickened her pace and said, "Here I come."

There were not many people in the elevator. The woman pushed Wu Jiawen away from Shen Zhiqian and squeezed past him. "Son, how many grams of gold bracelet do you want to buy me?"

Wu Jiawen, who was pushed aside, glanced at her new mother-in-law with a look full of disgust.

Shen Zhiqian's expression wasn't much better either, but the reason for his bad expression was not Shen Yan's question, but Aunt Shen's rejection.

"It's a few grams less than what I promised you before." The man's calm voice was mixed with imperceptible embarrassment. It was all because his adoptive mother refused to give him the salary, otherwise he would not have broken his promise to his biological mother.

I don't know what kind of magic potion that old vixen Weng Luecheng had put on his adoptive mother, that she actually refused his request. This would never have happened before.

"Don't worry, I'll make it up to you when I give you my year-end bonus."

Shen Yan acted very generous. She waved her hands hastily, "Son, I'm very happy that you have such filial piety." She paused, then changed the subject: "But, can I ask why there are a few grams less?"

In fact, Shen Yan already had the answer in her heart.

Shen Zhiqian confessed, "My mother..." The man glanced at his biological mother and changed his words, "That woman refused to pay."

"Okay, okay..." A malicious smile appeared on Shen Yan's face. "I knew it was her doing!" After the woman finished speaking, as if she remembered something, she continued to ask, "Does she know that the money is used to buy me a gold bracelet?"

"No, I lied. I told her I wanted to buy a gold bracelet for Jiawen's unborn baby."

"No wonder!" Shen Yan looked discouraged. "Who would buy gold jewelry for an unborn child? They must have bought it for themselves or their elders first."

"Remember to find a better excuse next time."

Ding!

The elevator door opens.

Before the mother and son finished their conversation, Shen Yan glanced at Wu Jiawen's belly and said, "Look at how flat her belly is. It will probably be a girl. We can save this money."

Although she was pretending to be pregnant, Wu Jiawen was still furious when she heard such words. The woman glared at her new mother-in-law and began to look for her old mother-in-law in the mall.

Shen Zhiqian did not object to what the biological mother said, but asked in return: "Then what should I buy for the child?"

"You young people are definitely smarter than me, but I have a small suggestion." Shen Yan deliberately paused and whispered in her son's ear:

"At the beginning, you have to let her spend small amounts. Then, as she spends small amounts more often and gradually increases the amount, she won't even notice how much she's spending. And when she does, she won't refuse to spend a large amount."

"Boiling a frog in warm water." Shen Zhiqian's eyes lit up, and he obviously agreed with his biological mother's words.

At the same time, Wu Jiawen's eyes also lit up, not because of the words of her new mother-in-law, but because she discovered the figures of her old mother-in-law and Weng Luecheng.

With his tall stature and handsome looks, Weng Luecheng always stands out from the crowd. Aunt Shen beside him, Wu Jiawen rubbed her eyes. She didn't know if it was an illusion, but she felt that her mother-in-law looked at least five years younger!

Is this the power of love?

Thinking of the important things to do, Wu Jiawen quickly looked away, "Mom, which gold shop do you want to go to?"

"Old Phoenix." Shen Yan answered without hesitation: "People in my hometown buy from him. When they don't want it anymore, they can melt it down and exchange it for a new style."

"Okay," Shen Zhiqian began to search on the floor finder, "We need to go down to the first floor. All the goldsmith shops are on the first floor."

Shen Yan's face was full of smiles as she followed her son and daughter-in-law into the elevator and came to the Old Phoenix counter on the first floor.

"Auntie, you are so lucky." The teller took out several of the latest gold bracelets, some plain, some engraved with various patterns. "Your son is obviously very filial, and your daughter-in-law seems virtuous as well."

Shen Yan's eyes became golden, and a greedy look appeared on the woman's face, as if she wanted to take away all the gold jewelry on the counter.

At this time, Shen Zhiqian reminded: "Mom, you choose one."

The woman tried them on one by one, spending the longest time on a pull-out gold bracelet. Anyone with a discerning eye could see her careful considerations.

Shen Zhiqian silently picked up the tag of the pull-out gold bracelet and took a look at it. It was twice his budget, and an expression of surprise and embarrassment appeared on his face.

Wu Jiawen had been secretly observing her husband's every move. When he saw Shen Zhiqian's embarrassment, the corners of his mouth raised slightly. He then walked closer to his new mother-in-law, picked up another round stick bracelet and asked:

“This one is pretty good, simple and elegant.”

Shen Yan turned a deaf ear to her daughter-in-law's advice and continued to choose styles that felt heavier to hold.

"Mom, our budget is around 6,000 yuan. Don't look at those bracelets that cost tens of thousands of yuan." Wu Jiawen nervously grabbed her husband's arm. "Husband, please persuade Mom. We can't afford it..."

"Don't talk!" Shen Zhiqian knew that his wife was right, but he didn't want to disturb his biological mother's interest. He was just trying it and didn't really want to buy it. He believed that his biological mother had this sense of propriety.

Shen Yan's breathing quickened. She just wanted to buy a gold bracelet, and there were not many such opportunities. She must buy a bigger one. Although her son didn't have much money, she heard that young people would use credit cards to buy things, so maybe he could use the card to buy her something worth tens of thousands.

The teller's eyes wandered over the faces of several people, her brain working rapidly. It was almost the end of the month and she had to rush for sales. Besides, the mother-in-law in this family seemed to be a powerful figure, the son was very filial, and the daughter-in-law's words were useless.

Finally, the teller decided to pick up the pull-out gold bracelet and handed it to Shen Yan. "This looks best on you and suits your temperament. If you want to buy it, I can give you a very favorable price." She hurriedly took out a calculator and tapped away. "Including the labor cost, the total is 18,000 yuan."

Eighteen thousand... less than twenty thousand. Shen Yan was very happy and felt that there was a chance!

Eighteen thousand... the change is more than the budget. Shen Zhiqian's face turned green. There is no hope at all!

Wu Jiawen stole a glance at the facial expressions of the mother and son, and the corners of his mouth were harder to suppress than the grass that sprouts in spring.

"Ahem..." The woman pretended to cough twice to attract everyone's attention. "This is really too expensive. We can't even afford half the price, not to mention..."

"Shut up!" Shen Yan pointed at her daughter-in-law's nose and scolded, "My son spends money to buy things for me, so you have no right to butt in." After the woman said that, she looked at Shen Zhiqian, and the expression on the man's face had not changed in time.

Shen Yan said aggrievedly: "Son, I like this."
