Chapter 150: 143, Yibao, I indeed saw greatness in you! (Requesting monthly votes)
"Do I have a gift too?"
He Yufen was somewhat surprised, but at the same time, she was a bit puzzled.
Why did she have to go outside to see her gift?
Could it be that the gift was too big to bring inside?
Clutching her doubts, He Yufen followed her "daughter-in-law" downstairs.
But there was nothing downstairs that looked like a gift, except for an SUV that she hadn't seen in the neighborhood before. The car was quite big, the color of a big green bean fly, kind of ugly!
Beep beep!
Yang Hao pressed the unlock button.
The "Big Green Bean Fly" lights flashed.
Only then did He Yufen realize that it was her son's car.
Well, actually it looked quite nice.
The green color was a bit like that of a rather valuable piece of jade!
Cousin Liu Yani also came in a car, an Audi A4L. Of course, it wasn't bought with her own money, but rather a 'gold coin' from her parents.
Liu Deren, Yang Hao's great-uncle, made quite a bit of money in the building materials business in the early years. The domestic construction industry has been in a slump in recent years, and some of the money he made was lost, but a camel, thin as it may be, is bigger than a horse; their family's standard of living was still above average.
Now, the great-uncle has started selling tea with friends, riding the wave of short videos, and supposedly doing quite well.
"Sister-in-law, send me the restaurant's location. I'll ride with Yani; one car can't fit everyone."
Yang Huizhen glanced at her great-nephew's Anjoy U8 and didn't recognize it.
For most women, this car is just a large generic SUV.
After all, the Anjoy brand is still too niche, only those who follow cars would know about it.
"No need to drive, it's just a walk away."
"There's a private kitchen right at the entrance of the neighborhood, the fusion of Hunan cuisine and local flavors is quite good."
He Yufen waved her hand, indicating that Yang Huizhen just needed to walk with her.
Old Mr. Yang, walking behind, patted his son on the shoulder and whispered, "Xinyi gave me such an expensive gift; you'd better reciprocate when you visit her family!"
"And it should be double at least, can you afford it?"
"If you can't afford it, will you return the fishing rod?"
Yang Hao teased Old Mr. Yang on purpose.
"That..."
Old Mr. Yang's face showed a conflicted expression, but eventually he glared resolutely: "Didn't you say you're a billionaire?"
"How come you suddenly can't afford it now??"
"I was even thinking about burning paper for the ancestors' graves..."
"Don't tell me the CEO is just a hollow title!!"
Yang Hao laughed heartily, not teasing his father anymore, "You can use the fishing rod without worries, I can afford it."
"That's good."
Old Mr. Yang breathed a sigh of relief, really not wanting to return the fishing rod he had acquired.
"Actually, whether I fish or not is secondary. What's important is that you get Xinyi to give me a great-grandson soon, that's the real deal!"
Old Mr. Yang lowered his voice again and said.
When he found out his son was divorcing, he gave up the hope of having a grandson.
Now it was revived!
And this new daughter-in-law was much prettier than the previous one.
Plus, his son was handsome...
Well, decent enough.
The child born will definitely be a handsome lad!
Of course, the chances were higher for the child to resemble its mother.
"That isn't up to me to decide."
"We need to see if the fate has arrived..."
Yang Hao shrugged nonchalantly, lately he hadn't been taking protective measures when playing cards with Yibao, going with the flow.
In fact, not only with Yibao but with Wang Xueru and Meng Chacha as well, although the beautiful Mrs. Wang Xueru always took the road less traveled, and the bullets went to places where they couldn't take root and grow.
And Meng Chacha was still a newbie, yet to unlock more methods, it was all straight to the stomach...
In short, four words: Just do it!
Being a man assisted by the "System", how could he not respond to the national call and contribute to preventing the population decline?
Just like the latest slogan: If you want to live a life of wealth, having more children is the right way!
And Yang Hao was now on the right path...
"Does that mean we should get married first?"
"It's Xinyi's first marriage, we can't not have a wedding, can we?"
Old Mr. Yang asked again.
"Uh, no hurry for that..."
Yang Hao quickly waved his hand, thinking to himself: The wedding can't be held; just let go of that thought, Old Yang!
While they were talking, the group had already left the neighborhood.
He Yufen, however, stopped in front of a house of wellness, "Why has this place reopened?"
"Wasn't it doing just fine..."
The house of wellness He Yufen occasionally patronized had two rows of flower baskets in front, and its signboard was covered with a red cloth.
"Aunty, you really like this place, don't you?"
Sun Xinyi asked with a pleasant smile.
"Yes, I quite like it. They do good moxibustion, acupuncture, and medicinal baths here, the only drawback is that they're pricey."
He Yufen replied casually.
He Yufen, at her age, still paid quite a bit of attention to health and wellness. Apart from dancing in the square, she would occasionally enjoy steaming and medicinal baths at this house of wellness.
But as she said, everything was fine with this establishment, except that it was expensive.
"Boss, you're here!"
Just then, the manager of the house of wellness whom He Yufen recognized came out of the store, followed by two traditional Chinese medicine practitioners with whom He Yufen was quite familiar.
However, the manager's calling her "boss" completely confused He Yufen.
Boss?
Who's the boss??
She looked astonished at Sun Xinyi beside her.
The "daughter-in-law" smiled at her and said, "Aunty, this store is a gift to you!"
"Ah?"
"For me?"
"Are you saying the gift is actually a house of wellness???"
He Yufen was utterly stunned, her pupils dilating several sizes, and the wrinkles on her face nearly bursting open.
Yang Huizhen and Liu Yani, the mother-daughter duo, were also left dumbfounded.
The new bride's first visit was to directly gift a whole health spa, something utterly unheard of!
Seeing everyone with that expression, Sun Xinyi felt somewhat embarrassed, and she emphasized again, "Auntie, I was just helping Yang fulfill his filial duties..."
"Xinyi, don't say that!"
He Yufen waved her hand dismissively and mocked, "He doesn't have that kind of thoughtfulness! Even if he borrowed two more hearts, he wouldn't come up with such an idea!"
The mockery coming from one's own mother is the most lethal.
Yang Hao could only spread his hands helplessly.
"Auntie, the plaque is waiting for you to unveil it..."
Sun Xinyi smiled and pointed to the plaque covered with a red cloth. There was a string underneath, and with a firm tug, the red cloth would fall off.
He Yufen, beaming with joy, took the string as the "daughter-in-law" had suggested.
"Auntie, wait to pull it, I'll record a video for you..."
Sun Xinyi stepped back and took out her phone, then started counting down for He Yufen...
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were indeed in perfect sync.
At that moment, Old Mr. Yang patted his son's shoulder and asked in a low voice, "Can you afford it this time?"
"You guess..."
Yang Hao teased his old man again.
"Answer what you're asked, stop the nonsense!"
Old Mr. Yang rolled his eyes and complained, "Even if you became a president, not just a CEO, you'd still be my son Yang Guomin's son!!"
"Yeah, can't argue with that..."
Yang Hao nodded in agreement, just about to answer his father's question.
But suddenly, the voice of the System interrupted.
Ding!
NPC Task No. 3 [Filial Daughter-in-Law] completed.
Reward distribution in progress...
Beep!
As soon as the System's voice finished, Yang Hao received a message from the bank notifying him of a transfer.
Just the right small target!
Yang Hao turned to his father and asked, "Dad, your heart's been okay lately, right?"
"My heart's fine!"
While answering, Yang Guomin puffed out his chest.
"Is your blood pressure normal?"
Yang Hao continued to ask.
"My blood pressure's always been normal."
Yang Guomin replied again.
"That's good then..."
Yang Hao nodded, then said, "I made some money as a CEO, so I'm thinking of setting aside some for you and Mom's retirement..."
"Your mom and I aren't worried about food and drink, you'd better keep the money and focus on your career!"
Yang Guomin shook his head, then added quietly, "Though, if you wanted to give me some pocket money, that wouldn't be bad..."
"What do you want pocket money for?" Yang Hao asked curiously.
"That's none of your business..."
Yang Guomin waved his hand impatiently, adopting an attitude that his son should mind his own business.
Although Comrade Yang's attitude was quite improper, Yang Hao courteously said, "Mom, Dad's asking me for pocket money!!"
Old Mr. Yang: ???
"Yang Guomin!"
"What do you need money from your son for?"
He Yufen immediately rushed over.
"It wasn't me asking, he said he wanted to give it to me..."
Yang Guomin explained with a distressed expression.
Yang Hao was enjoying the spectacle on the side. Quarrels stimulate mental activity, so for the elderly, arguing now and then is good, as it can prevent dementia!
While the old couple squabbled, Yang Hao moved closer to Sun Xinyi and said with a smile, "You took time off just to do all this, huh?"
"Yeah."
With a blush, Sun Xinyi nodded, "I just wanted to leave Uncle and Auntie with a good impression..."
"Well, that's pretty successful."
Yang Hao wrapped his arms around Yibao. With the System rewards all distributed, of course, there was no problem.
"Yang, there's something else I have to come clean about."
Sun Xinyi said softly.
"Go ahead, confess and be lenient..."
Yang Hao probably already guessed Yibao's maneuver, which was nothing more than another "surprise" in the wings.
But Yibao, with her thin skin, was not comfortable hogging all the credits for herself.
"I also bought a house and a Mercedes-Benz car..." Sun Xinyi whispered, as if she indeed did something wrong.
Yang Hao was not surprised; this was in line with Yibao's character. He asked, "So, did you spend the whole ten million?"
"There are several hundred thousand left."
Sun Xinyi honestly replied.
"Silly girl!!"
While Yang Hao chided her with his mouth, his heart felt warmly touched; indeed, he hadn't misjudged Yibao. She had spent such a considerable sum entirely on his parents.
Had it been one of those gold-diggers, they definitely wouldn't part with it so freely.
After all, such a sum could have set them up for life!
One could say she had successfully "landed ashore"!
Without going too far, if Meng Chacha had been in the same situation, she'd probably offer at most half, or even less.
Because Chacha was after the money from the beginning, with clear intentions.
She was sensible and could provide enough emotional value, being compliant with everything.
But all of this was for one purpose...
"Yang, let's have the house and car sent under your name," Sun Xinyi decided to offer a third solution; otherwise, the pressure would be too much.
Moreover, she felt she really wasn't cut out for this kind of thing.
So, it was best to leave it to someone who was good at it...
Yang Hao had no idea about Yibao's thoughts, or he would surely have asked: So, you think I'm just good at showing off???
