Chapter 87: 057: What kind of godlike figure, Capital City Tang Family_6

In that moment, Lin Guimei wished she could tear Zhao Cuinong’s mouth to shreds.

Look at how smug she is.

People who don’t know any better would actually think Lin Wu is something special!

In reality, she’s just a cheating dog.

Although this was what she was thinking, Lin Guimei still pulled out the money she had prepared ahead of time from her pocket, "Of course I remember, Cuinong, I’ve always said, I can handle winning just as well as I can handle losing!"

"You’re so generous, older sister," snickered Zhao Cuinong, unabashedly pocketing the red envelope.

Then Xiao Zhou and Grandma Li each took out red envelopes.

Unlike Zhao Cuinong, both of them handed their red envelopes to Cuinong willingly and happily.

With Lin Wu being so excellent, when the time comes, we neighbors will also get to share the light.

Watching the triumphant Zhao Cuinong, Lin Guimei squinted her eyes and suddenly spoke up, "Cuinong, do you dare to make another bet?"

"Bet on what?" Zhao Cuinong turned her head to look at Lin Guimei.

Lin Guimei smiled and said, "The college entrance exams are next year, so why don’t we compare Xiao Wu’s and Shan Shan’s scores?"

"Sure," Zhao Cuinong nodded, "How should we compare?"

Lin Guimei continued, "If Xiao Wu scores higher than Shan Shan on the college entrance exam, I’ll give you ten thousand yuan! If Xiao Wu’s score doesn’t surpass Shan Shan’s, then you give me ten thousand."

The college entrance exam examination hall is no joking matter.

Cheating is even more impossible.

It’s like a magic mirror that reveals one’s true nature.

When the time comes.

Lin Wu will have no choice but to show her true face.

Thinking of this, Lin Guimei felt somewhat relieved.

"All right," Zhao Cuinong added, "Then all the neighbors here tonight are our witnesses!"

"Okay," Lin Guimei nodded, "But as we say this, we still need to go through the proper procedures, let’s write down an agreement, shall we?"

Zhao Cuinong was totally onboard.

If Lin Guimei wasn’t afraid, then what did she have to fear?

After drafting the agreement, as per old customs, each held onto a copy.

At the Lu Family’s.

Bai Lu was packing Grandma Lu’s luggage.

She was a bit worried, "Mom, are you sure you don’t need me to accompany you to Capital City?"

"No need," Grandma Lu shook her head, "I haven’t gotten that old yet."

Having said that, Grandma Lu added, "I might stay in Capital City for a few more days this time, to spend some quality time with your Aunt Fang."

As Aunt Fang and Tang Shaowei got older, the only daughter they had, Tang Qiushui, remained missing, and they were definitely suffering now.

"Okay."

After saying that, Bai Lu looked at Grandma Lu, "Mom, how old was Sister Qiushui when she went missing?"

"She was three that year."

Bai Lu frowned slightly, "Then over the years, haven’t Uncle Tang and Aunt Fang thought about having another child?"

Tang Qiushui was three years old when she disappeared, and at that time Tang Shaowei and Fang Youling were still young, and having a second child wouldn’t have been a problem at all.

But strangely, they never did.

Grandma Lu sighed, "Every child is an irreplaceable treasure in their parents’ heart, even if they have another one, it would never fully replace Qiushui." That kind of feeling may only be understood by those who have experienced it.

Many people thought it was because Fang Youling had health issues and couldn’t have more children.

But that wasn’t the case at all.

The couple had a very firm belief, which was that they would definitely find their biological daughter.

Bai Lu, not understanding such behavior, sighed, "But having another child would also provide another hope, wouldn’t it?"

Tang Qiushui had been missing for more than thirty years.

Over the years, to find her, the Tang Family spent a considerable amount of financial and material resources.

Yet, they found nothing at all.

Tang Qiushui seemed to have disappeared from this world.

Bai Lu had a feeling that Tang Qiushui was most likely untraceable.

If Fang Youling and Tang Shaowei had had another child back then, they wouldn’t be so lonely in their old age.

Now, both of them were well beyond their seventies.

Even if they wanted to, it was too late.

Grandma Lu remained silent.

She thought of her own daughter who had died in a tsunami.

As a mother herself, no one understood the pain of losing a beloved child more than she did.

It’s not about having another one.

Even with ten children.

The pain that must be endured is still there.

Bai Lu realized she might have spoken out of turn and quickly changed the subject, "Oh, Mom, I’ve made a list of gifts; I’ll bring it over for you to look at later to see if there’s anything else we should add."

"Mmhmm," Grandma Lu nodded.

After finishing packing, Bai Lu carried the suitcase downstairs.

The Butler brought over the gift list.

Bai Lu said, "Please show it to Grandma for review."

"Alright," the Butler handed the list to Grandma Lu.

Grandma Lu took the list, briefly glanced at it, and knowing Bai Lu was a meticulous person who had everything well-prepared, she found no large issues and nodded, "This should be enough."
