Chapter 504: Chapter 499: Going Back to Hometown Troublesome Matter 34 [Explosive Update 28]

——————

At this moment, Chen Xiufang finally realized that Yan Jinsu was presenting them with an excellent profit-making opportunity!

It can be said that ever since she met Ni, Chen Xiufang felt as if she had fallen into a pit of luck.

Her sense of gratitude and appreciation for Yan Jinsu was so profound; she felt even closer to her than her own sisters!

As a result, Chen Xiufang blindly followed Yan Jinsu’s every move, determined to stick with Ni for life as the most cooperative business partner!

In fact, Chen Xiufang’s actions were very smart. Moreover, she was very perceptive in her heart and knew that Yan Jinsu wanted to make a fortune with her because she valued the character of her entire family!

Neither the Li Family nor the Chen family were ungrateful, which is why later on, as Yan Jinsu repeatedly gave Chen Xiufang advice, her income skyrocketed like a rocket, increasing multiple times.

Then, in the fifth month, Yan Jinsu mentioned wanting to buy a good piece of land for personal use, preferably with good access and not too far or too close to the town.

Upon hearing this, Chen Xiufang asked why, and Yan Jinsu said she wanted to create a ’Xie Mansion.’ At that time, Chen Xiufang wanted to give her a three-word response: "Yeah, right, go!" Rich ladies sure have the confidence to just gift their husband a Mountain Villa?

Yan Jinsu just gave Chen Xiufang a look as if she was an idiot – who said that just because it’s called ’Xie Mansion’ means it’s a gift for her husband? Couldn’t it be a gift for her two adorable treasures?

After feeling despised, Chen Xiufang could only vent her frustration in searching for land, thinking now that she had money and genuinely valued Yan Jinsu, she immediately circled the land next to the one Yan Jinsu fancied despite it being somewhat small, triumphing in becoming Yan Jinsu’s neighbor!

The Li Family had no objections – their daughter-in-law earned the money herself, what objections could they have? Upon seeing this, the widowed old lady of the Chen family also didn’t want to fall behind and circled a piece of land too, planning to be neighbors with Ni and her daughter [the little aunt] in the future. When free time came, they would no longer lack players for a card game!

They thought being neighbors was good, and Yan Jinsu didn’t mind either. She just felt that keeping money in the bank was just like throwing away char siu, and investing was a much better option.

Consequently, as the country continued to roll out policies to stimulate economic growth, Yan Jinsu discussed with Chen Xiufang and ultimately decided to acquire a massive piece of land for factory building under the company name.

They couldn’t help it; land was cheap, and each of the women had money. More importantly, the company was a joint venture, which had many preferential measures at that time. Buying land with the company was even cheaper!

Both the Li and Chen families had been following Yan Jinsu’s moves and had benefited greatly. It wasn’t easy for Yan Jinsu to host a happy occasion, and they wanted to give gifts – how could that be difficult?

"...I really don’t lack anything," Yan Jinsu said to Chen Xiufang, with an innocent look that conveyed the truth.

Hearing Ni’s words, Chen Xiufang felt like she had been shot through the heart, then she said with a wry laugh:

"I don’t care what you lack, I give gifts because it’s the proper thing to do! Others hold a banquet hoping to receive more gifts, why on earth are you refusing our gifts?"

"Heh, well, that’s because of you guys. Think about how your father and mother came visiting for the first time! They nearly crammed a whole truck into your house! I was so overwhelmed by the attention!"

"Pfft, keep pretending, you think I believe you!" Chen Xiufang wasn’t new to this little girl; Ni has always been fearless of both heaven and earth, how could she possibly be afraid of the opinions from outsiders??

Yeah right, as if!

Ergh—Chen Xiufang choked on her words, internally cursing herself.

"Hey hey, Sister Fang, I’m serious. That day it wasn’t just for Xiaojiu’s celebration; Xiao Ba was there too. If it gets all quiet over at Xiao Ba’s and you guys bring an entire truck of gifts, wouldn’t that make Xiao Ba’s look bad? That’s not conducive to family unity!"

Yan Jinsu also spoke to her bestie in advance to avoid making Little Eight look bad, preventing either family from feeling put out.

"Tsk, you go tell that to my mother-in-law yourself, see if she agrees!"

"Hey!" Yan Jinsu had a headache; given Zhou Daxiang’s previous actions, how could it be possible for her to listen?

"Oh man, speaking of my mother-in-law, I only found out later that my mother-in-law and your Aunt Zhang are from the same village!

If her name wasn’t Zhou Dahu, I would have been totally confused at first. It just sounded so right with my mother-in-law ’Zhou Daxiang’. When I put two and two together, I asked my mother-in-law, and turns out, she indeed has some relationship with your aunt. It’s a distant one, so I’m not going into detail about it—it’s nuts, like we’re related by a thousand degrees!"

"Jeez... Xiufang, I really want to know, does Brother Li know how much of a nosy woman you truly are?"

Just because their names are similar, she thinks there’s a connection between them?

That is indeed a bit far-fetched, especially when in Qingfeng Village alone, there is a whole bunch of people with similar names and pronunciations—it’s just a feature of the times.

Names like Jiefang, Feng Shou, Ai Dang, Ai Min, Cuihua, Xiuhua, Hongrong, Red Flower, Dahua, and so on... Really, there’s so many it’s beyond counting!

"I... Get out of here! How am I being nosy again? This is normal thinking! How else could I find out that my in-laws and your relatives could be somewhat related?"

Xiufang gave Ni a glance and said through clenched teeth.

The cheek of this little girl, calling her a nosy woman! As if she is!

"Right, as long as you understand what I mean, that’s fine. If you really want to give something, just give me cash, okay? Just transfer it into my account!"

"Psh! You little brat, you’re not shy! Do you think my money burns a hole in my pocket? No way, I might as well talk to my parents-in-law later, and tell them to dial it back a bit."

Xiufang spoke with a sense of grievance.

Because if Yan Jinsu hadn’t mentioned it, her mother-in-law would already be fussing about what to prepare for the feast.

Yan Jinsu was indeed good to Xiufang, involving her in making money and sending nice things for the grandchildren, most of them from her. Another thing, Xiufang being able to get pregnant again, it was all thanks to the fertility pills Yan Jinsu provided!

So, the Li Family and Chen family were close to treating Yan Jinsu like an ancestor.

That’s exactly why Yan Jinsu felt so uncomfortable coming back—it was just so awkward.

"Right, why did you arrange to come back so early? I clearly remember you said you’d come back just before the new year?"

"Well, that’s because I thought it would be better when the kids were a bit older, but..."

"Yeah?" Seeing Ni pause, Xiufang thought she might be in some trouble, but suddenly Yan Jinsu changed the subject:

"But ever since I had the twins, my Dad just keeps chanting at home ’ancestors bless us, ancestors bless us’ and can’t stop thinking about going back to the ancestral home to add a lamp and hold a banquet, how could I be unaware of it—?"

Speaking of this, she really had a lot to let out.

Yan Jinsu didn’t quite understand these traditional old-school thoughts, but she felt that there was nothing wrong with these traditions.

Moreover, she had noticed her husband’s subtle ’pleased’ mentality, so she decided to come back earlier. It’s not like they could just add a lamp to the celebrations without any preparation, right?

She had heard from her mother-in-law that adding a lamp usually required a banquet, so naturally, she had to return early.

Otherwise, once winter comes, the game in the mountains would retreat deep into the forest, and it would be more troublesome to get some game by then.

Another reason, she thought it would be better to return before the weather got too cold!

At least then her twin cuties wouldn’t have to suffer the cold. Besides, she is just overly sensitive. Old Xie never said it out loud, but he’s been privately nagging her mother-in-law to no end.

It’s driven both her mother-in-law and father-in-law up the wall!
