"Come in and talk." Qin Hao roughly guessed the reason why Fan Shengmei came to see him, and calmly let her into the house.
After Fan Shengmei sat down, she hesitated for a moment and then described the situation at home. In her description, she mainly focused on the problem of her rogue brother, and did not mention her parents at all.
Qin Hao shook his head secretly. In fact, Fan Shengmei's problem seemed to be that her brother Fan Shengying was acting rogue. In fact, the root cause was the Fan family's parents.
After all, the Fan family's parents raised Fan Shengmei from an early age and provided for her to go to college. For a family like the Fan family, it is not easy to provide for a girl to go to college. Fan Shengmei has always been grateful to her parents for their dedication to her.
, so I indulged my family’s unreasonable demands again and again.
After graduating from college, Fan Shengmei has been supporting the family. In fact, she also wants to prove to her parents that her daughter is no worse than her son, and that she can also be the backbone of the family. Deep down, she even enjoys the feeling of being able to contribute to the family.
But Fan Shengmei didn't expect that her family would rely on her support to help Fan Shengying marry and buy a house. Gradually, it became a habit. She always felt that Fan Shengmei was doing well in Shanghai because her family had provided for Fan Shengmei to go to college. She should support the family.
.
Under Fan Shengmei's expectant gaze, Qin Hao shook his head.
"I, as an outsider, cannot give advice on this issue. In fact, you won't listen to me either!"
Fan Shengmei's eyes turned red, her guard instantly broke, and she cried.
"We are both brothers. You are so much younger than Fan Shengying. Why can you do so well? Why does Fan Shengying always get into trouble and ask me to wipe his butt every time?"
Qin Hao interrupted directly: "Have you ever thought that maybe this is all your problem?"
"My question?" Fan Shengmei's eyes were filled with confusion.
Qin Hao's tone was not mixed with any other emotions, and he even analyzed it coldly: "It's like a child. If you always chase him to feed him, he will never learn to eat by himself. Your brother Fan Shengying is already married and has children. He
He is no longer a child, so why hasn’t he made any progress? To put it bluntly, it’s because he thinks he has a way out. You will always help him when something happens. If you don’t help him, he will go to his parents to make trouble. As long as his parents make trouble, you will
If you compromise, he can lie on your body and suck blood for the rest of his life."
Fan Shengmei couldn't help but shuddered. Qin Hao's tone was cold. However, in comparison, what he said made Fan Shengmei shudder even more. Looking back, this is indeed a fact. Most of her income and wages over the years have been made up of extra income.
All the money was spent on Fan Shengying. Isn't this just lying on her body to suck blood?
"Then what should I do?" Fan Shengmei was even more confused.
Qin Hao sighed: "Actually, you know very well what you should do, you just don't want to do it."
Having said this, Qin Hao paused and continued: "Sister Fan, some problems can be solved with money, but some things cannot be solved with money alone. Today, maybe you can use your own savings to solve Fan Shengying's beating.
, then if he causes a bigger trouble next time, you might not be able to fix it even if you sell the house in 2203."
House! Fan Shengmei shuddered, and there was a trace of determination in her originally confused eyes. The house was her obsession. For this reason, she gave up her dignity and chose to reconcile with Qu Xiaoxiao. She could lose everything, but she could not lose the house!
"You're right, I can't compromise anymore!" Fan Shengmei gritted her teeth and left 2102.
Back in 2203, Fan Shengmei looked at everything here and smelled the scent of gardenia perfume in the air. She lay down on the soft bed. Even after so long, she still felt like she was dreaming.
She really has a house of her own in Shanghai!
At this moment, the phone rang, and Fan Shengmei looked at the caller ID and frowned in disgust.
"Hey, Xiao Mei, why haven't you sent the money over yet? They are here. Your sister-in-law went back to her parents' house and left Xiao Lei to us. Now the whole family is under their control.
They all looked fierce, and Xiao Lei kept crying."
Fan Shengmei was a little impatient: "What's the use of calling me because Fan Shengying caused trouble!"
On the other end of the phone, Fan's mother cried: "Xiaomei, you can't say that, that's your brother, you can't be so heartless. Xiaolei is the only grandson of our Fan family. In the face of your brother,
Come on, please take it for granted that we worked hard to support you in college."
Fan Shengmei couldn't hold back anymore and shouted: "That's enough. Every time Fan Shengying got into trouble for so many years, you always said this. Yes, you paid for me to go to college. Fan Shengying didn't go to college, but he gave it to me."
Mine? It's because he didn't study hard and couldn't pass the exam. When I was in high school, I not only had to go to class and take tutoring every day, but I also had to do housework when I came back."
"It's been ten years since I graduated. I gave most of my income to my family. The total amount is at least three to four hundred thousand? It's enough for me to go to college!"
Fan's mother was a little panicked when she heard this: "Xiao Mei, that's not what you said. How can this family affection be calculated with money..."
Fan Shengmei laughed miserably and said: "It doesn't make sense and you are using family ties to kidnap you? Mom, don't waste your efforts. Tell Fan Shengying that I will not give any more money to the family in the future. My father has a pension. Your life will not be good."
The question is, when you are too old to move, I will take you here to honor you!"
After saying that, Fan Shengmei hung up the phone directly. She didn't understand that she was born to the same parents. Why did her parents only see their son and grandson? Was she not a member of the Fan family?
However, Fan Shengmei obviously underestimated Fan Shengying's shamelessness. After he was released from the police station, he immediately called Fan Shengmei and asked for money.
Fan Shengmei gritted her teeth and scolded: "Fan Shengying, can you please give me some face? You are a father. Why should I pay for you when you made a mistake?"
Fan Shengying said in a scoundrel tone: "Stop talking nonsense and send 10,000 yuan to my family immediately. My father has lost all his salary to them this month. If you don't send the money back, our family will starve to death."
When Fan Shengmei heard this, she almost lost her temper: "Fan Shengying, you are a bastard, why do you use my father's salary to wipe your ass?"
"You can't control it, but our dad is happy to do it. Just send the money back as soon as possible!" Fan Shengying was secretly proud.
Fan Shengmei shouted: "Don't even think about it, I will never give you another penny, just give up!"
"I said Fan Shengmei gave you face, right? Don't think that I can't reach you when you are in Shanghai. I know exactly where you live and where you work. If you don't give me money, I will go to your company to cause trouble. I see
How can you pretend to be a white-collar worker in a company with five people and six people!" Fan Shengying said fiercely.
Fan Shengmei was as disgusted as if she had eaten a bug. Although she had seen Fan Shengying's rogueness before, she had never thought that he could be so shameless!
"Okay, come, I'll wait for you. Whoever doesn't come will be the grandson!" Fan Shengmei also became cruel. Qin Hao's words reminded her that if this continues, Fan Shengying might even take away her house.
She can't give in anymore!
"Okay, you can do it. You want to send money or not. Anyway, I still have a bunch of buddies who will never starve to death. If our parents are hungry, it's all because of you!" Fan Shengying shouted angrily.
Fan Shengmei hung up the phone feebly, tears streaming down her face. Why did Fan Shengying, who was also her brother, treat her like this?
"Xiaomei, what's wrong with you?" Wang Baichuan accidentally saw Fan Shengmei coming out to answer the phone in a panic and saw this scene.
Fan Shengmei couldn't hold back any longer, hugged Wang Baichuan and cried loudly.
After a long time, when Fan Shengmei's mood calmed down a little, Wang Baichuan asked about the reason.
Fan Shengmei also needed a place to vent her emotions, so she told Wang Baichuan the situation.
Wang Baichuan felt heartbroken after hearing this: "I didn't expect that Xiaomei, you have had such a difficult time in these years."
At first, he didn't understand Fan Shengmei's acceptance of Qu Xiaoxiao's house. It was clear that they could build a love nest together through their own efforts, but now he realized that Fan Shengmei was burdened with so many things.
However, before they could express their feelings to each other, Fan Shengmei's cell phone rang again.
Mother Fan's cry came from the other end of the phone: "Xiao Mei, something bad has happened. The people your brother beat are in the hospital, and they have to pay thousands of dollars in medical bills every day. They are now living in your brother's house."
They have taken away all of your dad’s company this month. We don’t even have living expenses anymore. Xiao Lei is clamoring for chicken drumsticks, which we can’t even afford. Please hurry up and get the money back!”
Fan Shengmei was angry and angry: "Who asked you to give him living expenses? If you are wronged, the debtor must be the owner. Let them go to Fan Shengying to ask for money!"
"Xiao Mei, how can you say that? He is your brother. If you don't get the money, they will break your brother's legs!" Mother Fan accused.
Fan Shengmei couldn't bear it anymore and shouted: "Then let them break Fan Shengying's legs! If you don't want him to cause trouble all day long, give up. I will never give you any more money! Doesn't Fan Shengying have that?
There are many friends who don’t want to starve to death, so let him borrow it!”
In the next few days, Fan's mother kept calling Fan Shengmei. For this reason, Fan Shengmei had to turn off her mobile phone when she went to work, and the two sides were in a stalemate.
Until one night, Fan Shengmei received a strange phone call again, and Fan's mother's voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Mom? How come you have the Magic City area code number?" Fan Shengmei's heart skipped a beat when she saw the number on the caller ID.
Fan's mother cried: "Xiaomei, we escaped from our hometown. My mobile phone is out of battery and I have no money, so I found a kind-hearted young man to borrow my phone. Can you come and pick us up?"
"Where are you?" After all, they are biological parents, unfamiliar with the place in Shanghai, and Fan Shengmei can't help but refuse.
"It's at the Modu Railway Station. Come quickly, it's so cold here!" Mother Fan said pitifully.
The young man also hurried back, so he urged: "It's almost done, please return my phone to me."
Fan's mother had no choice but to return the phone. Just when the young man was about to leave, Fan's mother stopped him again: "How about you, a good person, do your best and give us some money to buy something to eat."
The young man was speechless for a while. He cooperated with him to do good deeds and was relied on.
"Here, you go buy some bread to fill your stomach."
Mother Fan took the ten yuan, but still stared at the young man's wallet, and then pointed at her grandson: "Well, my grandson is clamoring for chicken drumsticks, why don't you give him a hundred yuan and let him buy a KFC meal?
Bar?"
The young man immediately became angry and grabbed the ten dollars offered: "What are you thinking about, giving back the KFC set meal? I usually can't bear to eat it. I'm really pushing my limit. Who are you!"
When Fan's mother saw that the money she finally got was robbed again, she started to act up. But the young man didn't care about that and ran away.
When Father Fan saw this, he couldn't help complaining: "I originally had ten yuan to buy some bread, but I was greedy. Now it's better. I can only drink the northwest wind."
"Then I didn't know he was so stingy. Didn't he say that all demons are rich? I thought one hundred yuan was not a big deal here. Besides, Lei Lei is growing and needs to supplement his nutrition. How can he do it without eating meat?
." Mother Fan said depressedly.
"Now what?"
"What else can we do? We can only wait for Xiaomei to pick us up."
"It's so cold here, let's find a place to take shelter from the wind."
On the other side, Fan Shengmei was a little panicked when she heard the busy signal on the phone. The Shanghai Railway Station was so big and her parents didn't bring their mobile phones. How could she find it alone?
Fan Shengmei had no choice but to call back the number she had just given, but the other party's tone was very harsh.
"It's up to you to find it yourself. I've already left. Who are your family? I thought the old man and old lady were pitiful with a child, so I lent her the phone to call her. She even blackmailed me. I bought it for ten yuan.
Bread is not enough, but I still need 100 yuan to eat KFC..."
When Fan Shengmei heard this, she wanted to find a crack in the ground and crawl into it, so she could only apologize profusely.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Seeing that she was so sincere, the other party didn't care anymore: "The last time I saw them was in the West Square, you can go find them yourself!"
"Thank you, I really appreciate it." Fan Shengmei hurried out and then called Wang Baichuan.
It happened that Qiu Yingying heard the commotion outside, opened the door and asked about the situation, and upon hearing this, she also expressed her intention to follow.
Fan Shengmei was worried about being single and weak, so she said gratefully: "Thank you, Yingying."
"Hey, what did Sister Fan say? Which one of us is following which one?" Qiu Yingying said nonchalantly.
"By the way, why don't you invite my brother too? And it will be more convenient if you have a car."
Fan Shengmei quickly grabbed Qiu Yingying: "Let's forget it. I'm sorry for bothering you, so don't bother him anymore. Besides, your brother is very busy. For this trivial matter of mine, there's no need. I've already called Wang Baichuan."
, he will drive there."
"Oh, okay."
Fan Shengmei and Qiu Yingying took a taxi to the train station, met up with Wang Baichuan, and then started looking for someone all over the world. As a result, the Fan family's parents took their grandson and hid in the underground passage, and they didn't find him until midnight.
At least we got the person, but it was awkward when we got in the car. There were four adults and one child, and the car was very crowded. Originally, Fan Shengmei wanted to take a taxi back with Qiu Yingying.
As a result, Fan's mother said disgustedly: "Oh, how can I still have the money to take a taxi now? It's not a waste of money, just squeeze in and it will be fine."
Fan Shengmei was so angry that she rolled her eyes and had no choice but to squeeze into the back seat with Qiu Yingying. However, Lei Lei, a naughty kid, was not worried and clamored for KFC along the way.
"Eat whatever you want. If you have the ability, ask your dad to take you to eat!" Fan Sheng was so angry.
Fan's mother heard this and patted Fan Shengmei: "How can you talk to a child like this?"
Fan Shengmei felt aggrieved and squeezed, tears welling up in her eyes. Wang Baichuan also felt a little distressed, but he couldn't open his mouth. After all, she was also his future mother-in-law.
When she arrived at the underground garage of Ode to Joy, Fan Shengmei suddenly woke up. She couldn't let her parents know that she had bought a house in Shanghai, otherwise her parents would definitely ask her to sell the house to fill Fan Shengying's trap.
Thinking of this, Fan Shengmei quietly pulled Qiu Yingying aside.
"You should go live with me during this period. Remember not to let my parents know that 2203 is my house."
Qiu Yingying asked curiously: "Why?"
Fan Shengmei briefly explained the situation. Qiu Yingying looked at the old couple of the Fan family in shock and said angrily: "How could they do this? Isn't my daughter not a human being?"
Fan Shengmei shook her head sadly: "Perhaps, in their eyes, my daughter is really not a family member!"
Qiu Yingying quickly comforted: "Don't worry, Sister Fan, I will never let them know."
When we got to the 22nd floor, Andy came back from get off work and was a little confused when he saw this large group of people.
Fan Shengmei was afraid that Andy would spill the beans, so she took out Qiu Yingying's key and opened the door of 2202.
"Mom and Dad, you guys take a rest first, I have something to do with my neighbor."
After saying that, he closed the door and took Andy, Qiu Yingying, and Wang Baichuan to 2203.
Andy was a little confused: "What's going on?"
Fan Shengmei also took the risk and told her a simple story about her family.
Andy couldn't help complaining: "So, your brother caused trouble at home, ran away, and asked his parents to bring their children to the Magic City to find you? How can there be such a person in the world!"
Qiu Yingying also muttered: "I thought that parents in this world should be like my parents, and my brother is like my brother. I didn't expect that there are parents and brothers like Sister Fan!"
Fan Shengmei smiled bitterly: "My brother has completely quarreled with me this time. I want to be prepared for a protracted war, so I have to trouble you to help me hide it from them. I must not let them know that 2203 is my house."
.”
"Okay, I will keep the secret for you." Andy said solemnly.
Qiu Yingying made a zipper sealing gesture.
Fan Shengmei breathed a sigh of relief, then packed some changes of clothes and daily necessities, ready to take back 2202.
Sitting in room 2203, Qiu Yingying couldn't help but think of her parents, so she called home.
"Dad, Mom, I love you so much."
"Silly girl, why do you suddenly say this?" Dad Qiu asked with a smile.
"It's nothing, I just suddenly realized that you guys are so nice to me."
"Haha, you just realized it now? It seems that this girl has been raised in vain for the past twenty years." Dad Qiu joked.
After finishing the call with her parents, Qiu Yingying couldn't help but run downstairs.
Qin Hao noticed something was wrong with Qiu Yingying as soon as he heard it. After asking, he found out that Fan Shengmei's parents were here.
"So you live in 2203 now?"
"Um."
When Qin Hao thought about it, it was okay and he would arrange a new place for her for free.
"You should go back and rest first. It's getting late and you have to go to work tomorrow."
After sending Qiu Yingying away, Qin Hao shook his head. It seemed that Fan Shengmei was still not cruel!
