Chapter 834: Greed
"How much does your sister-in-law cost?" Wen Yulong asked.
Wen Yulong estimated that there should be a few thousand yuan in his mother's hand, and if he borrowed it, he should be able to borrow a thousand yuan. It's just that I don't know how much Wu Xiuli's sister-in-law wants before she is willing to let go? Zhang Meihua That woman has always been very greedy.
Wu Xiuli stretched out a finger, her eyes paid attention to Wen Yulong's face without blinking, she was really afraid that Wen Yulong would turn her face.
"A hundred?" Wen Yulong's eyes lit up, and then he shook his head. Zhang Meihua, that greedy ghost, can't have so little.
Sure enough, Wu Xiuli shook her head.
"One thousand?" Wen Yulong thought, if it was a thousand yuan, he could also find Feng Xueying to make it up.
Wu Xiuli shook her head in embarrassment again, it was good that her sister-in-law's heart was only so big. Zhang Meihua's original words at the time were: 10,000 yuan, not a penny less. Anyway, this is the heirloom left by the eldest sister of the immortals to their Wu family.
"What? Zhang Meihua really dares to ask for 10,000 yuan? Those people in your mother's family are all white-eyed wolves, if they weren't dragged down, I would still be in the position of deputy commander now!" Wen Yulong gasped and jumped to his feet angrily.
Damn, he was bullied by dogs in Pingyang, and he lost his official position, even these poor relatives of Wu Xiuli's mother's family dared to show him their faces?
But······ 10,000 yuan? This is not a small amount, his wife definitely does not have it, his father Wen Yiran has worked hard all his life, and he has not been able to earn so much salary.
You know my sister-in-law's temper, she is a dead money-getter, and if she doesn't have 10,000 yuan, she will definitely not be able to get a paper crane. "Wu Xiuli
Wen Yulong is sometimes a bit stubborn, what you don't let him do, he just wants to do it, just like when Wen Yiran didn't allow Wen Yulong and Wu Xiuli to be together, Wen Yulong just wanted to marry her.
"No, if that's it, I'll never get up for the rest of my life. If I don't try, how can I be willing?" Sure enough, Wen Yulong's reaction was similar to Wu Xiuli's estimate.
Wu Xiuli lowered her eyelids and did not make a sound. To be honest, Wu Xiuli hates Wen Yiran and his wife now, if Wen Yulong can get money from Feng Xueying, Wu Xiuli can't wait. Besides, this money is not for others, but for her mother's family, when the time comes, she will say a few more good words in front of Mrs. Wu, and let Mrs. Wu go to Zhang Meihua to suppress the price, and maybe she can put the rest of the money into her own pocket.
fell from the "rich nest" to the "slum" all of a sudden, and all the money she had saved over the years was lost, and Wu Xiuli's heart was very panicked. She couldn't wait to find peace of mind, and the best way to make her feel at ease was to have money in her hands, preferably a lot of money.
"But my mother definitely doesn't have that much money in her hands······" Wen Yulong hesitated again. Wen Yulong didn't dare to anger Feng Xueying, after all, whether he could go home in the future or not would depend on his mother to say good things in front of his father!
"Yulong, doesn't mom have antiques or something like that?" Wu Xiuli couldn't help but be a little anxious when she saw that Wen Yulong was not enlightened at all. For a family like the Wen family, it is certainly impossible to say how much cash there is. But in private, there are more or less things that have been passed down from ancestors.
Antiques, jade, calligraphy and paintings, jewelry, etc., are all valuable objects, and one or two pieces are worth 10,000 yuan. Wu Xiuli was very greedy for the jade bracelets and jade pendants that Feng Xueying wore before, those are all good things!
Wu Xiuli didn't know the value of those things, but Feng Xueying herself showed Wu Xiuli that most of her jewelry was old objects, and everything was worth the price of a house in Kyoto City, which made Wu Xiuli envious.
Feng Xueying also said that her things will be inherited by her three sons after a hundred years.
was "swept away" by Wen Yiran, Wu Xiuli didn't think it was a big deal. But for Feng Xueying's mismatched gold and silver jewelry, Wu Xiuli was not reconciled at all.
"You make me think. After Wen Yulong was "woken up" by Wu Xiuli, he suddenly felt that his mouth was suddenly opened. yes, they still have something of value in their house. Anyway, his parents' things are all left for their sons, and it shouldn't be difficult for him to ask his mother to "withdraw" one or two things in advance, right?
Even if Feng Xueying refused, wouldn't there still be Cao Yumei's dowry at home? After Cao Yumei's death, all her dowry was left to her son Wen Ziqing. Although Wen Yulong didn't like Cao Yumei, he was very impressed by Cao Yumei's dowry. The Cao family is a family that loves their daughter, and Cao Yumei's dowry, in addition to the furniture and clothes on the surface, also has several large boxes of jade antique gold bars and silver ingots in private, which are worth only a lot more than Feng Xueying's pressed box goods.
Wen Ziqing is his son, it shouldn't be impossible for him to use some of his son's belongings as an old man, right? Wen Yulong couldn't help but smile when he thought of this.
"Yulong, I'll go back to my parents' house tomorrow and talk to my sister-in-law about it, so that she can charge less money, after all, our days are not as good as before, and we can save a little bit. Wu Xiuli saw that Wen Yulong was in her heart, and she was finally relieved, but she still expressed her virtuousness in her mouth.
"Thank you, Li. After Wen Yulong made up his mind, his mouth became sweet.
"Brother Yulong, it's all my fault, otherwise you wouldn't have to suffer. Wu Xiuli listened to this long-lost "nickname", and quickly "repented" at the seams.
During this time, Wen Yulong has always had no good face for Wu Xiuli, and Wu Xiuli was a little scared in her heart, afraid that Wen Yulong would listen to Wen Yiran's words and divorce her. Wu Xiuli is not young, her youth is no longer there, and her money-making skills have also been lost, and she has climbed high branches and was swept away, so she has no face to live in this world.
"Forget it! the fire of the paper crane is not something you can control, but fortunately your mother has one, and it is not impossible to remedy. What Wen Yulong said and Wu Xiuli thought was fundamentally the bull's head and the horse's mouth. Wu Xiuli apologized for her mother's brother dragging Wen Yulong down, but what Wen Yulong was thinking about was the paper crane that was inexplicably set on fire when she interrogated Wu Xiuyun.
Wu Xiuli was stunned and didn't say anything more, but the sense of urgency in her heart became stronger and stronger. Wu Xiuli knew that in Wen Yulong's heart, nothing was as important as his powerful position, and he lost the position of deputy commander this time, not because Wen Yulong didn't care, but because he firmly believed that as long as he found Wu Xiuyun, Wu Xiuyun would have the ability to turn things around for him.
That paper crane, in Wen Yulong's eyes, represents Wu Xiuyun, an omnipotent "immortal" high above.
