Chapter 118 - Selling the House
Chapter 118: Selling the House
After Zhao Xiumei left the hotel, the pain in her leg was unbearable and she went straight to the hospital.
“Call Tingyun, I’ll show him how filial his daughter is.”
Zhao Xiumei was furious.
Xu Yanshan was worried that she didn’t have a place to vent her frustrations and would turn on them, so she immediately called Lan Tingyun to tell him that Old Mrs. Lan had been beaten to the hospital.
Just then, Lan Anran and Lan Yanran returned home.
!!Lan Tingyun looked at the brother and sister solemnly.
“What did the two of you do?”
“Anran, Yanran, your aunt called just now to say that you beat your grandma into the hospital again. She even said that she wanted your father to see her. What happened?” Li Yueru asked.
Lan Anran knew it would be like this, that old thing was the first to complain.
She lowered her head in silence, looking pitiful.
Lan Yanran spoke first.
“Mom, Dad, you can’t blame her. I was there as well and Grandma was being unreasonable. She ran to the hotel and said that my sister seduced a man and wanted to chase her out of the Lan Family. But in reality, I was with my sister and brother-in-law. You know how approachable he is, but Grandma said that she was seeing a man for no reason and even hit her. She injured Grandma because of self-defense.”
“Why are you going to the hotel with Mo Jinrong? Anran, didn’t I tell you that you are still a student? Even though you are married, your life is still ongoing. You…”
“Dad, what are you thinking about? Nothing happened between us. Yanran was there the entire time. Jinrong just wanted to talk to me about something, but Grandma appeared before he could finish speaking.”
Lan Anran blushed as she thought about the hotel.
“Anran, you’re a girl, you have to protect yourself. You can’t go to such places with your brother again.”
Li Yueru thought that since Lan Anran had lived in the countryside for twenty years, she hadn’t had the time to teach her some things and it wasn’t too late now.
“Okay, I understand, Mom, but Grandma…”
Lan Anran looked up pitifully.
“It’s not your fault, your grandma misunderstood the situation. How can a girl’s innocence be slandered so easily? She even beat you. This isn’t the first or second time. Tingyun, Anran can’t accept this grievance for nothing.”
Li Yueru felt bad for her daughter and spoke to Lan Tingyun.
“Your grandma was overboard in this matter. It’s not wrong for you to protect yourself.”
Lan Tingyun lowered his head. He knew his mother, she hadn’t liked Anran at all since she came back and had wanted to beat her several times.
Just as he was thinking, the phone in his hand rang again. It was Xu Yanshan, perhaps anxious from waiting, who called to rush him.
Lan Tingyun glanced at it and turned off the phone.
In the hospital.
Zhao Xiumei had already had several long steel pins inserted into her leg, which had then been wrapped in a thick cast, making her entire leg huge.
“How is it?” she asked anxiously.
“Mom, Tingyun isn’t picking up the phone. Perhaps Lan Anran said something to him again.”
Xu Yanshan speculated.
“That lousy thing! B*stard!”
Zhao Xiumei lay in bed and cursed angrily.
Lan Tingyi was kicked in the stomach. He had just returned from the scan and wasn’t seriously injured, just a large bruise on his upper abdomen that was a little painful.
“Mom, Lan Anran is such a jinx, she even dares to hit her elders!”
He sat down in pain.
“Grandma, I’m really upset that you were beaten up like this. I’m going to find Lan Anran to talk to her.”
Lan Yaxin was heartbroken.
“My good granddaughter. Grandma is old and useless. She can’t even defeat a little girl now.”
Zhao Xiumei reproached herself.
“Mom, we can’t let that girl lead us by the nose. It’s been a few times and she’s made fun of us again and again.”
Lan Tingyi was dissatisfied.
“It seems like I have to give her something. I may be old, but I can’t let her climb over my head!”
Zhao Xiumei had a plan.
Xu Yanshan looked at Lan Tingyi and smiled triumphantly.
Just as Zhao Xiumei was planning to teach Lan Anran a lesson, Lan Anran took action.
“Boss, several families have expressed their intention to contact us today.”
Fatty called.
“Very good, show them around,” Lan Anran smiled and said.
Zhao Xiumei’s house originally belonged to Old Master Lan, but before Zhao Xiumei married into the family, the house was written in the names of Old Master Lan and his first wife. There was no relationship with Zhao Xiumei at all, but Zhao Xiumei used a little trick to force his first wife to jump off of a building, which resulted in the house falling into Old Master Lan and Zhao Xiumei’s hands.
In her past life, Old Master Lan didn’t change the owners at all. His name was written alone and it would probably be the same in this life.
Lan Tingyi loved to gamble. In her past life, he had lost too badly and had sold the house in the end, which was why he had plotted to take over Lan Tingyun’s hospital. Now that it was about time, Lan Tingyi should have signed the agreement, but Zhao Xiumei didn’t know.
This way she would help him.
