Chapter 139 won the lottery.
Ye Tang hasn't been feeling well lately.
Extremely sleepy.
Her mother-in-law, Xu Mingzhu, invited her to play mahjong.
She fell asleep at the card table after only a few rounds.
"Mingzhu, is your wife a sleepyhead? She can fall asleep while playing mahjong. Are you abusing her?"
"Mingzhu, you are a reasonable person. Let's not bully our daughter-in-law. It will damage the relationship between mother and son. If she develops hatred towards her son, there will be no way to resolve it for the rest of her life."
"What are you all saying? Is Mingzhu that kind of person? She's the kind of person who takes revenge on the spot. How could she mistreat her daughter-in-law? Young people need to sleep more, it's normal for them to be sleepy."
Xu Mingzhu neither refuted nor made a fuss about it.
He simply calmly wiped the cards.
After finishing one round, she woke Ye Tang up, "Alright, wake up, let's go home."
Ye Tang wiped away her drool.
It was quite awkward. I said goodbye to the aunties, "I'm sorry, I'm not feeling well today. I'll treat you to tea another day."
"Alright, go home and get some sleep." The aunties waved goodbye to her with smiles.
Ye Tang followed Xu Mingzhu around like a little puppy.
Feeling embarrassed and apologetic, she said, "Mom, I'm sorry. I don't know what's wrong. I've been so sleepy lately. I really didn't mean to embarrass you, I really didn't."
Xu Mingzhu ignored her.
His steps were calm and composed.
The driver opened the back door, and she bent down and sat inside.
Ye Tang wasn't sure if her mother-in-law was really angry.
Standing outside the door, I was caught in a dilemma: whether to go in or not.
Xu Mingzhu glanced at her. "Get in the car. Are you waiting for someone to offer you a ride?"
"No, no, Mom." Ye Tang quickly bent down and got into the car. "Are you angry? I really didn't mean to."
"Ye Tang, you've given birth before. Given your situation, haven't you checked if you might be pregnant?"
Ye Tang was stunned.
Pregnant?
Is she pregnant?
She really didn't think in that direction.
Since giving birth to her daughter, her periods have been irregular.
Later, she got too lazy to calculate it anymore.
However, Gu Lin hasn't taken any precautions during his recent encounters. Could it be that he's pregnant?
"No, it can't be that much of a coincidence, can it?"
"Did you use a condom when you were doing that? Don't you remember?" Xu Mingzhu's words were direct, making Ye Tang's face turn bright red. "Oh my god... you see... I'll go to the hospital for a check-up tomorrow."
Based on Xu Mingzhu's experience, Ye Tang is most likely pregnant.
The Gu family is about to welcome another new member.
She was quite happy.
"Ye Tang".
The flush on Ye Tang's ears hadn't faded yet. "What's wrong, Mom?"
Do you like gold?
Ye Tang swallowed hard. Who doesn't like gold?
Could it be that her mother-in-law is going to give her gold?
She pretended to be calm and feigned refusal, saying, "Mom, we don't need anything, so you don't need to spend any money."
Xu Mingzhu glanced at her indifferently.
She bluntly exposed him, saying, "If you like something, you like it. Don't try that on me."
Ye Tang hugged Xu Mingzhu's arm, grinned, and nodded eagerly, "I like it."
"In a couple of days, I'll take you to buy some gold, and then make some gold jewelry for the two babies. It's almost Chinese New Year, so consider it my gift to you."
Ye Tang was deeply moved.
She rested her head on Xu Mingzhu's shoulder and said, "Thank you, Mom. You are the best mother-in-law and the best grandmother in the world."
Don't give me that.
Xu Mingzhu's eyes had a gentle gleam.
She really likes this daughter-in-law; in fact, she likes her more and more each day.
Xu Mingzhu suddenly thought of her daughter.
Gu Rou and Cheng Yingnan encountered great trouble when they went abroad to handle Wang Bin's funeral arrangements.
The Wang family members are not reasonable people.
Wang Bin was the only son in the Wang family. It was one thing for his grandchildren to die, but now that his son was dead, the widowed mother of the Wang family regarded Gu Rou as an enemy.
Xu Mingzhu couldn't help but sigh when she thought about the situation her daughter was facing.
Ye Tang keenly noticed the change in her mother-in-law's mood.
"Mom, what's wrong?"
"It's nothing, I just suddenly thought of your sister..." Xu Mingzhu's eyes were a little red, which made Ye Tang feel sorry for her. "...Mom, are you worried that my sister won't be able to handle things over there?"
"Your sister has no close friends over there besides Cheng Yingnan, and I'm quite worried about her."
Ye Tang nodded.
With the Chinese New Year approaching, her studio isn't too busy right now.
Gu Lin just finished an order and should be able to free up a few days.
She thought...
"Mom, let Gu Lin and I go. With my family backing my sister up, even if those Wangs are arrogant, they're just paper tigers. Maybe things will go more smoothly after her death."
Xu Mingzhu's eyes lit up.
She was quite pleased that Ye Tang could bring up such an idea. "Ye Tang, Mom didn't raise you for nothing."
"Of course, Mom. I'm a family man now. My sister's business is my business. Anyone can be shameless. If throwing a tantrum can actually get things done, I really don't mind."
Ye Tang patted her chest, "Mom, don't worry."
Xu Mingzhu raised her hand and pinched Ye Tang's cheek.
"Gu Lin has good judgment. No wonder he waited for you for ten years. You're quite capable."
"Thank you for the compliment, Mom. I guarantee I'll handle this perfectly."
……
Ye Tang didn't even go to the hospital to check if she was pregnant.
She booked plane tickets and dragged Gu Lin to find Gu Rou.
Gu Rou was in a complete mess.
Although Cheng Yingnan hired his own legal team to deal with Wang Bin's legal issues.
But Wang Bin's family is indeed a headache.
Gu Rou has clearly lost weight.
I stayed abroad for two months at a time.
Even the best mood can turn sour.
Seeing Ye Tang and Gu Lin approach, she couldn't help but feel wronged and her eyes welled up with tears.
"You've arrived."
"Sister, don't cry. Don't worry, I came here to stand up for you. The Wang family is bullying us too much. Do they think the Gu family has no one to rely on? I heard that old woman is the toughest to deal with, right? Leave her to me."
Ye Tang rolled up his sleeves.
She wouldn't murder for money, but she's more than capable of fighting.
Having lived abroad for ten years, she had seen all sorts of scoundrels and rogues.
Did she chicken out?
"Alright, don't be impulsive." Gu Lin pressed down Ye Tang's arm, which was about to wave. "Let's see how things go first. We'll meet their reasonable demands, but there's nothing we can do about the unreasonable ones."
"Their son is dead, what reasonable demands could they possibly have?"
Ye Tang felt that Gu Lin's idea was too optimistic.
The Wang family wants Gu Rou to give up inheriting Wang Bin's property.
On what grounds?
What is rightfully Gu Rou's, she will not give up a single cent; what is not rightfully hers, she will not take a single cent.
The Gu family is a reasonable family.
"Sister." Ye Tang walked up to Gu Rou. "Gu Lin and I will be staying for a while. Leave this matter to us for now. You just need to sleep more and eat more. Anyway, Wang Bin and that Zhao Yuan are dead, so no one will bother you anymore. The money issue will be easy to resolve."
Gu Rou hugged Ye Tang.
This sister-in-law is really nice. "Thank you, Ye Tang."
"Don't mention it, we're family, why say such things?"
We all had dinner together that evening.
Cheng Yingnan explained the Wang family's situation to Gu Lin and Ye Tang in detail.
It's simply a matter of the proportion of property distribution.
Legally, the Wang family doesn't acknowledge it and is obstructing things in various ways. If a lawsuit is filed, it will be a waste of time and energy.
"The Wang family cannot be communicated with."
"They lost their son, so they've given up all hope. But this isn't unsolvable. Tomorrow, Gu Lin and I will go to the Wang family. If all else fails..." Ye Tang turned to Gu Rou and asked, "...Sister, are Wang Bin's ashes with you?"
