Listening to the conversation between the eldest brother and the third brother, Lan Shu, as an adopted daughter, could only sigh for her brothers.

She is even a little glad that she is not her adoptive mother's biological daughter now.

She thought of Lan Xinya's difficulty when she appeared in the early years, and she seemed to have a little bit of a mother-daughter resemblance to her adoptive mother after she got old......

…

In Kyoto at this time, in a small house near the Huamei shopping mall.

In the past few days of the Chinese New Year, Lan Xinya has not been idle.

Other businessmen will close their doors from the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve and will reopen after the fifth day of the new year.

But in order to make more money, she didn't have a day off for the New Year.

Lan Xinya has been opening a clothing store and doing clothing business all these years.

Her storefront has grown from a small façade to two storefronts.

Although she has a good business, she doesn't make much money because of her small profits and quick turnover.

Over the years, the money she has saved in her hand can almost afford the down payment of the rising house prices in Kyoto.

Lan Xinya never thought that the more she saved, the farther away she would be from buying a house!

The rise in house prices is beyond her control.

At first, she thought that when she had saved enough money, she would buy a house in full, and she scoffed at the matter of taking out a loan to buy a house.

But now, she just wants to take out a loan to buy a house, and the down payment is still a little short!

Because of the Chinese New Year, every family is busy visiting relatives, but in fact, there are not many people shopping to buy clothes.

So Lan Xinya opened the store for a few days, only on the fourth and fifth days of the new year, sold a few clothes, and the profit she made was as much as 100 yuan.

Lan Xinya felt that the market for selling clothes was getting worse and worse, but she didn't know what else she could do besides selling clothes for so many years.

She tried to look for a job in some small companies, but because of her size and age, no one would hire her as a secretary.

So Lan Xinya accepted her fate, and she could only sell clothes to survive in this life......

On the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, Lan Xinya was sitting in the store waiting for customers to come to the door, and suddenly saw a familiar figure outside the door-

Meng Dabao came alone, carried a carton of eggs for his mother, and carried a pot of peanut oil.

"Mom, Happy New Year."

This belated New Year's greeting was hidden from Meng Dabao's family.

He is now in contact with his own mother, and even his daughter-in-law doesn't know about it.

Meng Dabao is a simple-minded person, even if he knows that his father, grandfather, and grandmother at home all have opinions about his own mother, and he doesn't want him to have anything to do with his own mother anymore.

But in his heart, Lan Xinya is indeed his own mother.

Even if his mother is irresponsible to him, takes little care of him, and even cheats him out of money, he can not interact with his mother on weekdays, and he still has to come to see him during the New Year.

When Lan Xinya saw Meng Dabao, her mood was somewhat complicated.

She has seen through it for so many years, and all the people around her have betrayed her relatives, and only her son will still think of her.

Thinking of this, Lan Xinya felt a little guilty in her heart.

At the beginning, she used breast cancer as an excuse to take thousands of dollars from her son......

Fortunately, her son did not cut off contact with her because of this incident.

Lan Xinya felt that her own son could still be relied on in the future.

So Lan Xinya thought about it again and again, and then mentioned one thing to her son-

"Dabao, do you have any money?"

As soon as Meng Dabao heard his mother mention the money, he suddenly set up a guard in his heart almost instinctively!

Lan Xinya saw Meng Dabao's nervousness, and she immediately explained, "Son, Mom wants to buy a house, and now there is a gap of 10,000 yuan from the down payment. ”

Lan Xinya is telling the truth, she is indeed the heir to Meng Dabao's inheritance.

It's just that when her son can inherit the inheritance, she doesn't know if it will be decades later.

It depends on how many years she Lan Xinya can live.

Judging from Lan Xinya's current body, if there are no accidents, it is possible for her to live to seventy or eighty, and when Meng Dabao also becomes an old man, the inheritance will not mean much to him.

Knowing that his mother wanted to buy a house, Meng Dabao hesitated for a moment.

He still has 10,000 yuan, and now he is on the construction site, and he can earn more than 3,000 yuan a month!

It's just that his money is handed over to his daughter-in-law for safekeeping, and he doesn't have that much in his own hands.

If you give money to his mother, you must let your daughter-in-law know.

Meng Dabao was not sure if his daughter-in-law would agree to this.

Meng Dabao's hesitation, in Lan Xinya's opinion, is a chance!

She immediately persuaded again, "Dabao, mom has been in Kyoto for so many years, and she doesn't have a house yet, so you should help mom?" ”

Lan Xinya understands her son's temperament best, and when she says this, Meng Dabao is bound to be soft-hearted!

So within a few minutes, Meng Dabao thought about it, he raised his head and said to Lan Xinya, "Mom, I'll go back and discuss this matter with my daughter-in-law." ”

Speaking of her daughter-in-law, Lan Xinya has something to explain.

"Dabao, you have been married for so many years, and your children are several years old, and you have never brought your daughter-in-law and children to see your mother, and your mother also wants to meet her daughter-in-law and grandson."

Lan Xinya's words are still in her heart.

Now that she is alone in Kyoto, she really wants to have more relatives.

My mother wants to see her daughter-in-law and grandson, and this is the right thing to say.

Meng Dabao didn't agree immediately, but he also kept this matter in his heart.

"Mom, I'll tell my daughter-in-law when I get back."

He thought that if his daughter-in-law was willing to come to see his own mother, he would bring someone over.

Lan Xinya nodded when she heard this, "Your daughter-in-law's name is Zhou Lan, right?" When you go back, you must talk to your daughter-in-law well, and your mother wants to meet her. ”

On the same day, Meng Dabao told his daughter-in-law about these things when he returned home after visiting his mother......

…

Zhou Lan is now working as a salesman in a big shopping mall here in Kyoto, with a stable job and a good salary.

If a woman is rich, she has confidence, and her status in the Meng family is not low, so she can be regarded as able to speak.

So Zhou Lan also has an understanding of her man's situation from childhood to adulthood.

She knows that her man still has a real mother.

also knows that her own mother is the culprit of her man's poor brain!

even knew that before she married his man, that mother had cheated her man of his money.

For her man's mother, Zhou Lan has no good impression at all.

So just after the New Year, when her man told her that her mother wanted to buy a house and needed 10,000 yuan, Zhou Lan did not hesitate and told Meng Dabao directly, "We don't have enough money to buy a house." ”

Although the Meng family has a place where Meng Dabao and his wife live, as their son grows up, the family is too crowded after all.

Zhou Lan has long had a plan for the couple to buy a house outside, and they are also working towards this goal.

According to her plan, she and her man can buy a second-hand small house as long as they save for another two or three years.

So it's impossible for her to give the money she already lacks to others!
