Chapter 819 My Niece is Going Abroad (3)
Xu Jinhuan remained calm and raised an eyebrow, saying, "You'd better have a good talk with him. You're his mother, what right does he have to talk to you like that?"
Xu's mother glared at her: "How can you be such a sister?"
"No brother should act like him. He won't lend you a single penny. He's incredibly stingy, worse than a stranger," Xu Jinhuan said, pursing her lips.
That's right, she came to ask for money today.
Xu's mother frowned: "Do you think your brother is all alone like you? Your brother has a wife and children to support, where would he get the money to lend you?"
She looked Xu Jinhuan up and down, and asked suspiciously, "You're not here to borrow money, are you?"
“That’s right!” Xu Jinhuan nodded matter-of-factly. “When children encounter difficulties outside, of course they should come to their parents.”
Xu's mother:!!!
She snapped, "How old are you? Solve your own problems!"
She started to shoo him away: "Alright, I didn't cook for you today, you should leave now."
"Don't go!"
Xu Jinhuan squeezed past his mother and went straight to the dressing table in the bedroom. He reached in, took out a gold bracelet, and stuffed it into his pocket.
Xu's mother was shocked and reached out to snatch it, saying, "What are you doing? This is my gold bracelet."
"This is the one I bought for you before. I'm in trouble now, so lend it to me first, and I'll buy you a bigger one when I have the money." Xu Jinhuan made empty promises.
Xu's mother's expression changed drastically. "Do you think I'm a fool?"
"Give it back to me right now!" she roared.
Xu Jinhuan was still not satisfied. He used his left hand to protect his left pocket, and with his right hand, he rummaged through the drawer and found a silver bracelet, which he also stuffed into his pocket.
Xu's mother lunged forward to snatch it, but Xu Jinhuan dodged and weaved like a nimble rabbit.
When Xu's mother couldn't get what she wanted, her eyes turned red with anger, and she cursed, "I think you're just a bandit."
Xu Jinhuan shrugged: "Don't say that. We're mother and daughter. Isn't it only natural for me to take your things? You used to take things from my house, and wasn't that also perfectly natural for you?"
Since the original owner started working, she moved out of her home and rented a small house near her company.
Xu's mother would come occasionally, ostensibly to clean her room, but in reality, she would come to ransack the place, taking away everything from the original owner's refrigerator and her newly bought robot vacuum cleaner.
Xu's mother choked back a sob: "You brat, how dare you talk like that? How can these be the same?"
"Give it back to me right now!" She lunged at him, trying to snatch it back.
Xu Jinhuan dashed out in a flash.
By the time Xu's mother chased after her, she had already disappeared from sight. She stomped her foot in anger, "That brat, she's getting more and more outrageous!"
Other people's daughters give their parents gifts every year, but she always asks them to take back what she's supposed to give away.
She had originally planned to sell the gold bracelet and use the money to pay for her granddaughter's tuition, but now that plan has fallen through.
Xu's mother was so angry that she lost her appetite for cooking and only bought some noodles from the nearby supermarket.
When Xu's father returned from his stroll outside and saw that it was noodles, he was very unhappy: "Why did you make this? Don't you know I don't like it?"
Xu's mother was still angry: "If you don't like it, then don't eat it. I'll eat it with my son and the others."
In the living room, Qin Feifei winked at Xu Yihang: "What's wrong with Mom? She's acting like she's swallowed a bomb."
Xu Yihang shook his head.
During the meal, Xu's mother's expression was also not good.
Qin Feifei couldn't help but ask.
Not wanting to lose face in front of her daughter-in-law, Xu's mother held back and didn't say anything.
Qin Feifei was a little unhappy. After so many years of marriage, he still treated her like an outsider and kept her at arm's length.
Seeing that his wife looked unhappy, Xu Yihang took the initiative to say, "Mom, just say what's wrong. Feifei is just concerned about you."
Xu's mother said irritably, "You always side with your wife."
She really raised this son for Qin Feifei.
Xu Yihang was also a little unhappy, "Mom, what's wrong with you today? You talk back to anyone who speaks to you?"
Mr. Xu nodded in deep agreement. Indeed, he had just been rebuked.
Xu's mother closed her eyes briefly, suppressing her anger. "Alright, hurry up and eat. I want to rest early today."
Xu Yihang frowned.
Is he going through menopause?
On his way home, he told Qin Feifei about it.
Qin Feifei frowned deeply. "Menopause isn't something that happens overnight. If your mother continues like this, I can't stand it."
"We'll eat at home then."
Although he and Qin Feifei had a whirlwind marriage, their relationship has always been very good.
Especially when he was diagnosed with low sperm count at the hospital, Qin Feifei not only didn't despise him, but also took the responsibility upon herself, saying that she didn't want to have children. This moved him deeply, and he vowed to treat Qin Feifei well for the rest of his life.
Qin Feifei didn't want to cook either. She sighed and said, "I hope it's not menopause."
Neither of them suggested taking Xu's mother to the hospital for a check-up.
After her son and daughter-in-law left, Xu's mother didn't clean up the dishes, but instead told Xu's father what had happened that day.
Mr. Xu was incredulous. "She really stole your gold bracelet?"
"Yes, I told her to give it back to me, but she won't. I've given birth to a bandit!" Xu's mother said angrily.
"This is really unreasonable!"
Mr. Xu slammed his hand on the table and said angrily, "I'll call her right now and make her return the things."
Xu's father dialed Xu Jinhuan's number, but a second or two...
No one answered the call for a long time.
Mr. Xu became even angrier and said harshly, "If she's so capable, she can never accept this job."
After leaving the Xu family, Xu Jinhuan went to a jewelry store to sell the gold bracelet and then bought himself a new cell phone.
The original owner used an old phone.
It wasn't that the original owner was reluctant to sell it, but rather that Qin Feifei saw it as soon as the original owner bought it and said she wanted to trade with her.
The original owner disagreed, so Xu's mother went to the original owner's house and took away the original owner's new phone, leaving behind Xu Yihang's old phone that he no longer used.
That's right, it's that absurd. When she learned about this from the original owner's memories, she was so angry she laughed.
This gave rise to the idea of going out to retrieve Xu's mother's gold bracelet.
"The new phone is so much fun, it doesn't lag at all," Xu Jinhuan said to the system.
The system glanced at the old phone next to it and said, "Your dad just called you."
Xu Jinhuan gave a nonchalant "hmm".
Without even thinking, she knew that Xu's father had come to scold her.
Then there's no need to accept it.
Mr. Xu called several more times, but no one answered. He was so angry that he wanted to smash his phone.
"They've really grown up, they won't even answer my calls anymore." Mr. Xu was furious.
Xu's mother was also very angry, "Don't call her anymore, let her fend for herself!"
Mr. Xu nodded.
……
Xu Yihang is helping Xu Xian practice English again.
Seeing that Xu Xuan had forgotten the words she had just memorized, Xu Yihang's temper flared up instantly. "Did you even try?"
Xu Xuan's eyes immediately reddened. "I don't want to study anymore."
Xu Yihang laughed angrily, "I've already paid the money, and now you're telling me you don't want to learn anymore?"
Xu Xian cried, "I want my mother to teach me, not you. You're too mean."
Xu Yihang took a deep breath. "Okay, I'll go call your mom for you, as long as you study hard."
Qin Feifei was wearing a face mask when she heard Xu Yihang's words. Without even taking off the mask, she went to Xu Xuan's room and began to tutor her.
After less than half an hour of tutoring, she also lost her temper.
