Chapter 5: Hypocrisy
Chu Chu's collapsed voice came from the cash register, "It must be a mistake!" My boyfriend is very generous to me, he won't lie to me-"
Wen Lan walked over and saw that Chu Chu was in a hurry to make a call.
I dialed it several times, but the other party didn't answer.
Wen Lan was in a good mood and said with a smile: "The customers of our studio are all financially powerful, and there are not many people like Miss Chu Chu who have a swollen face and become fat. β
Chu Chu's face became more and more distorted with excessive plastic surgery, "It should be a problem from the bank, I will definitely come to pay the deposit within an hour!" β
"No matter when you come, we will be happy to serve you." The receptionist smiled and bowed her head.
Chu Chu walked in a mess.
In the evening, Xie Yansheng personally came to the apartment to pick her up.
The two returned to the Xie family's old house, and Xie's mother was still waiting for them to have dinner.
Maybe it was the last time Xie Yansheng dropped his chopsticks, but Xie Mu didn't dare to say more.
The old mansion has two villas, one large and one small.
Old man Xie is in the second room all the year round.
Xie's mother lived alone in a big villa, and Xie Yansheng and Wen Lan lived in the small one when they got married.
Mother Xie picked Wen Lan's mistakes all day long, and in less than a month, the two moved to An Yueyuan.
The dΓ©cor in the cottage is still the same as when they got married, and the floor-to-ceiling windows of the bedroom are covered with faded wedding letters.
Walking into the bedroom, Wen Lan had the illusion of reappearing yesterday.
Two years ago, her and Xie Yansheng's wedding was sloppy, with only the immediate family members of both parties attending.
The second elder of the Xie family rarely mentions her to outsiders, and she is not called by relatives at gatherings. Xie Yansheng is still fluttering colorful flags outside, so that many people don't know that she is Xie Yansheng's legal wife.
The Jingdezhen porcelain doll at the head of the bed smiled sweetly, and Wen Lan held it on a whim.
"If you like it, you can have a couple, and your child and I must be prettier than them."
Xie Yansheng stood behind her, his hand resting on her waist.
She laughed, "Giving birth to a child, will people laugh at it?" β
"If you give birth to one, I will see who dares to laugh at my child." Xie Yansheng raised his eyebrows.
"What else can you laugh at, of course other women are taking your black card to spend a lot of money!" Her smile was cold.
"You've stopped that black card, and you're still angry?" Xie Yansheng pulled her upper body and forced her to look at herself.
Before Wen Lan could answer, Xie Mu's voice sounded in the living room outside.
"Feast, the medicine is boiled."
Xie Yansheng pulled Wen Lan to the living room.
The nanny handed him the blue and white porcelain bowl, and another red porcelain bowl to Wen Lan.
Xie Yansheng didn't frown, and drank it all.
Wen Lan spit it out after only taking a sip.
Even if it's sour, it's still astringent.
"It's such a big person, it's hypocritical to drink a pill." Xie Mu scolded with a stiff face.
"Mom, you go and rest, I'll watch Lan Lan drink." Xie Yan was afraid that the two would quarrel again, so he issued an eviction order.
Mother Xie found a chair and sat down, "The medicine I boiled myself, she must drink it in front of me to be worthy of my hard work." β
Xie Yansheng smashed Wen Lan with his elbow.
The sourness in Wen Lan's mouth had not yet dissipated, and he retreated in panic.
"I have only given birth to a lone seedling of Yansheng in my life, and you, as the daughter-in-law of Yansheng, can't let us have no queen!" Mother Xie stared at Wen Lan coldly.
The nanny brought the medicine to Wen Lan again.
Wen Lan knew that he couldn't dodge, so he held his breath and took the medicine bowl and poured it into his mouth.
She had a bad stomach since she was a child, and the medicinal juice went down her stomach, and her stomach immediately turned over the river and the sea, and she vomited out all the food she drank.
Xie Yan frowned.
Mother Xie got up angrily, "Don't think that if you can't drink it, you'll turn the page, I'll go boil another bowl." β
