Chapter 125 The Brother-Supporting Demon

After seeing my mother off.

Gu Lin told Ye Tang about this.

Ye Tang: ...

Although the Gu family had begun to accept her marriage to Gu Lin.

but……

Is it absolutely necessary to meet him?

"I'm afraid my parents will talk nonsense. They've become too greedy these past few years because of me. It's one thing if they embarrass themselves, but I'm worried about your parents..." After all, the Gu family is a respectable family. "...Maybe we should just forget about it."

"It's alright," Gu Lin said, unconcerned.

But Ye Tang knew that Gu's parents would definitely mind.

"Gu Lin, there's really no need..."

"It is necessary."

Ye Tang couldn't refuse Gu Lin, so she had to agree, "Then I'll take some time to go home and explain to my parents, so that things don't end badly."

"Okay, whatever you say, I'll do what you say."

After Ye Tang finished her postpartum confinement period.

I went back to my parents' home.

"You're finally back. Where's the baby? Didn't you bring him back?" Mother Wang Hui glanced behind Ye Tang. "Didn't Gu Lin come back with you either?"

"No, I'm all alone."

Ye Tang walked into the living room and bent down to sit down.

I don't know if it's because I'm getting old or because taking care of the baby is tiring, but I always feel like I don't have much energy and I'm very tired.

"Mom, make me a cup of red date soup."

"Okay, wait a minute."

Wang Hui made red date soup for her daughter and added two brown sugar eggs.

"Did you not take proper care during your postpartum period?"

Ye Tang shook her head. "No."

"Is it because Gu Lin didn't take good care of you? Did you get up to look after the child every night while he just slept?"

The accusations were obvious.

Ye Tang was displeased. "He's a doctor. He helps me take care of the kids at night, but during the day he still has to perform surgeries on other people. He still has to stay in the hospital for a month before he can officially leave."

Wang Hui knew about Gu Lin's plan to start a company.

She was actually quite satisfied.

"Then you'll take care of the child yourself?"

"We have a nanny." Ye Tang put down her cup and started to get down to business. "Mom, I have something to tell you. Gu's parents said they want to hold a wedding for me and Gu Lin, and before that... they wanted to meet with you."

Wang Hui heard this.

It seems the Gu family is planning to arrange a marriage between them.

He exclaimed excitedly, "Great! I've been looking forward to this day for ages!"

"Don't get agitated. I'm here to tell you in advance that you shouldn't ask for ten million in betrothal gifts right off the bat. It'll make people think our family members are abnormal. Let's talk things out calmly. If we can't reach an agreement, then don't say anything, understand?"

Wang Huisi.

This daughter, how can she be so biased? "I only have one daughter, how can they not give a bride price?"

"They're giving it as a token of their appreciation. Don't try to take advantage of them like you've never seen money before, otherwise..."

Ye Tang gave her mother a knowing look.

Wang Hui rolled her eyes at her daughter. "Fine, I'll do whatever you say. They can give me as much as they want. But shouldn't you increase the retirement money you promised for me and your dad?"

"100,000 a month, and you still think it's not enough?"

"Your brother is getting married soon, and the girl's family is asking for a house, a car, and a dowry. I don't have that much money. How about you buy your brother a house and a Mercedes, and I won't ask you for the dowry?"

Wang Hui said it as a matter of course.

Ye Tang laughed in exasperation, "Do I owe you anything?"

"How can you talk like that? You're his older sister, isn't it only right that you help him?"

"It's only right that I'm filial to you and my dad, but I have to be filial to him too?" Ye Tang stood up angrily. "If he's capable, he should get married; if not, he should stay single. I have to buy him a house and a car? Am I a sucker? A brother-supporting demon?"

Wang Hui was very dissatisfied with her daughter's attitude.

"We're all family. Listen to what you're saying. If you have the ability to help him, your dad and I will be grateful. Helping him is the same as helping us, isn't it?"

Before Ye Tang could speak, she continued, "Look at you, you're about to marry into the Gu family and become a young mistress. If you don't even help your own brother, not only will people laugh at you, but they'll also laugh at the Gu family. Don't you think so?"

Don't give me that.

Ye Tang is not someone who can be easily threatened.

The reason she has achieved what she has today is because she is not swayed by other people's emotions.

This applies to Gu Lin.

This is especially true for family members.

Her true nature is cold and unapproachable; anyone who tries to manipulate her with familial affection will only suffer the consequences.

"I think the 100,000 you received in January has clouded your judgment. Starting next month, it will be halved."

Ye Tang grabbed her bag and walked out.

Upon hearing this, Wang Hui's living expenses immediately dropped from 100,000 to 50,000.

She chased after him, taking two steps at a time. "Ye Tang, don't be angry. If you don't want to help, you don't have to. Mom isn't blaming you. If you cut Mom's allowance, Mom really won't be able to live..."

As she spoke, Wang Hui slapped her thigh and burst into tears.

Ye Tang glanced at her indifferently.

He said calmly, "If you behave well when you meet the Gu family, I will consider not reducing your living expenses."

Wang Hui nodded, "Understood."

Just because she doesn't mention the bride price doesn't mean others won't.

……

On the way home.

There were suddenly more people in the house.

Xu Mingzhu, Gu Changqing, and the Gu family's housekeeper.

"Young Madam is back." The butler stepped forward warmly and took her bag. "Sir and Madam came to visit Miss and brought you some tonics."

Ye Tang looked at the room full of gift boxes.

Gu Changqing was standing in the middle of the living room.

I was already panicking.

"Uncle, you've arrived."

"Come and see the child." Gu Changqing didn't like this daughter-in-law from the bottom of his heart, but since things had come to this, he still had to show his elders' manners. "A-Lin is busy handing over his work with the hospital and also busy with the new company. You've been taking care of the child. It's been hard work."

Ye Tang: ...

"It's not hard work, it's what I should do. The baby is easy to take care of, and I have a postpartum nanny to help me, so I'm not tired."

Gu Changqing nodded and didn't say anything more.

Xu Mingzhu came out of the bedroom.

Seeing Ye Tang return, his expression didn't change much. "Your house is too small. We bought you a villa in the city's villa district..."

Xu Mingzhu raised her fingertips.

The housekeeper quickly handed her her bag.

Xu Mingzhu took out a property ownership certificate from her bag.

He handed it to Ye Tang, saying, "The house is all renovated. You can pick a time to move in."

Ye Tang didn't know whether to accept the gift or politely decline it.

She's actually used to living in this house.

One hundred and twenty square meters is not small, but it's not particularly big either.

Even with another child, it's still enough room.

Ye Tang was hesitating.

Xu Mingzhu forcefully shoved the property certificate into her hand, saying, "What are you dawdling for? Just take it."

"oh."

Xu Mingzhu smiled and said to Gu Changqing, "Alright, let's go back too."

"Uncle, Auntie, take care."

Ye Tang personally saw the guests off at the door.

The elevator doors opened, and she watched the group of people enter.

The elevator doors slowly closed, and she heard Gu Changqing's voice, "Didn't you register your marriage? Why are you still calling us uncle and aunt?"

"Did you give her money to change her address? You just want to hear her call you 'Dad'?"

Their voices grew softer and softer as they walked further and further away...

Ye Tang snapped out of her daze and opened the red property certificate in her hand.

She was stunned when she saw the name after the owner.

It was written with her name.

A villa of nearly 500 square meters.

A villa worth nearly 100 million yuan has her name on it...

Omg.

She even called them uncle and aunt?

Ye Tang: ...These are my own parents...
