Chapter 46: Chapter 46 What Kind of Family!

If that’s really the case, Empress Dowager Ye would absolutely not agree.

However, on the other side of the phone, Zhuang Yan naturally also heard Empress Dowager Ye’s words, and was first stunned, then hurriedly explained:

"Haha, is it sister-in-law? You’ve misunderstood. It’s not Brother Lin wanting to buy tea, it’s me wanting to buy Brother Lin’s tea. Rest assured, the price I’m offering is definitely above market value."

Zhuang Yan knew very well that if he couldn’t satisfy the woman on the other side, he might really not be able to buy the tea today.

But as soon as he said this, both Father Lin on that side and Lin Yi on this side couldn’t help but slap their foreheads.

But since Empress Dowager Ye was talking to the other side, they couldn’t forcibly hang up either.

"Buy Lao Lin’s tea? Which tea? The big green tin barrel I used to boil tea eggs in this morning?"

Once Empress Dowager Ye heard that it wasn’t Lao Lin who wanted to buy tea, she instantly relaxed, but the next moment, she became puzzled. It wasn’t buying tea, but selling tea?

The only tea she could think of was the new large barrel her husband had just bought. After all, aside from that, they really had no other tea at home.

However, after Empress Dowager Ye said this, not only were Lin Yi and Father Lin speechless, but even Zhuang Yan on the other side was dumbfounded. He looked down at the big green tin barrel, swallowing hard:

"B-boiling tea eggs with, tea?? Sister-in-law, are you saying you used the Imperial Qian Longjing to boil tea eggs??"

Upon hearing this, Lin Yi couldn’t listen any longer. He quickly snatched the phone from his mother’s hand, turned off the speakerphone, and walked quickly out of the bedroom to talk to Zhuang Yan.

Half a minute later, when Lin Yi returned to the bedroom, he saw Empress Dowager Ye staring blankly at the table, muttering something about four million, and tea eggs.

Quickly, Lin Yi rushed forward and waved his hand in front of Empress Dowager Ye:

"Mom, what’s wrong with you? Haha, you’ve misunderstood, Mom. What President Zhuang said wasn’t the tea you used to boil tea eggs with in the morning. You know that’s the tea my dad bought for four hundred yuan. They were talking about the tea I gave my dad."

Upon hearing her son’s words, Empress Dowager Ye finally snapped out of it and asked somewhat uncertainly, it really wasn’t that tea? But where did you get this tea?

Sighing helplessly in his heart, he thought, for the sake of his mother’s fragile little heart, he’d better lie:

"Didn’t I sell an antique for five million? Sun Zhi told you about it yesterday, right?"

Seeing his mom did not respond but still looked at him suspiciously, Lin Yi continued:

"Then I took that money to invest in buying some rare tea leaves. Look, now someone’s buying them from me at a high price."

"Really?? And what kind of tea did you buy that’s worth four million per ounce?"

"Of course it’s true, ahem, if you don’t believe me, wait until Dad comes back, you can ask him to show you the receipt for the tea he bought! It’s good tea, the Imperial Qian Longjing, it’s priceless on the market, I was just lucky to get my hands on it."

Seeing his son’s serious expression, and thinking about the can of tea that was indeed bought by Lao Lin, Empress Dowager Ye chose to believe him.

Realizing that the tea she used for boiling tea eggs wasn’t the one worth four million per ounce, Empress Dowager Ye finally breathed a long sigh of relief, feeling much lighter.

Upon seeing this, Lin Yi also breathed a sigh of relief, thankful that his mom was easy to fool...

But the next moment, before Lin Yi could finish his sigh of relief, Empress Dowager Ye suddenly stood up and grabbed the grip strengthener she had just put down, hitting Lin Yi on the butt with it.

Seeing the grip strengthener coming with a forceful wind, Lin Yi was startled. Luckily, he was quick to react, and he turned around and ran out of the bedroom while shouting:

"Ouch, I didn’t do anything wrong, it’s Dad who’s hiding money, Empress Dowager Ye, why are you hitting me!"

Who knew saying this was the wrong thing to do, as Empress Dowager Ye tossed the grip strengthener and picked up her slipper, chasing after Lin Yi.

While hitting, she muttered:

"You still have the nerve to talk? I’m hitting you because you’re a traitor, if this were the past, you’d be the first to betray!"

These words nearly made Lin Yi trip and fall, so it was his own doing!

"And you little rascal, I thought I’d wait until after your college entrance exams to deal with you, but why did you, a high schooler, buy a car?? Huh? It’s okay to buy a car, but you spent four million on it?? Do you even know how hard it is to make money?"

The more she hit, the angrier she became, especially thinking about how scared she was just now, so she continued hitting him with the slipper.

Of course, putting aside the fact that Empress Dowager Ye hit with great restraint and didn’t actually hurt Lin Yi, Lin Yi’s thick skin didn’t mind it at all.

Not minding was one thing, but he still had to pretend it hurt, otherwise, Empress Dowager Ye wouldn’t feel accomplished from hitting her son!

After a good while, when Empress Dowager Ye stopped hitting him, panting, Lin Yi quickly poured a cup of water for her, rubbing her shoulders with a smirk while saying:

"Hey, Mom, you shouldn’t get so angry anymore. Didn’t you see your son is capable now, you’re meant to enjoy life for the rest of your days.

Haha, you also heard earlier, at least 40 million profit this time. If you don’t want to work anymore, just quit, and have Lao Lin take you on a tour around the country. Once you’ve seen all the splendid landscapes of Huaxia, we can go vacation abroad, what do you say?"

Enjoying her son’s shoulder rub along with his filial words, Empress Dowager Ye felt quite appreciated, but she still looked displeased, pushing away his hands and dully saying:

"I don’t think so! You’re still in high school, soon you’ll be in college, after college you’ll have to buy a house, get married and have kids, all of which require money. I’m telling you, when this money comes back, you hand it over to me for safekeeping. If left in your hands, who knows when you’d buy a plane or something for me!"

Saying this, Empress Dowager Ye couldn’t help but laugh...

Meanwhile, back with Father Lin, after Zhuang Yan returned the phone, he hesitated a bit before still asking, bewildered:

"Brother Lin, can I ask, did Sister-in-law really use the Imperial Qian Longjing to boil tea eggs this morning??"

Hearing this, Father Lin could only smile bitterly, then nodded under Zhuang Yan’s disbelieving gaze.

In an instant, countless grass-mud horses galloped through Zhuang Yan’s heart. What kind of family was this, using tea worth millions just to boil tea eggs!

"Well then, can you sell me a tea egg, I’d like to taste what it’s like boiled with Imperial Qian Longjing..."
