She would steal other people’s things every few days, and when caught red-handed, she wouldn't admit her mistake but would instead fight others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once, Ma Lan’s thermos broke, and she couldn't bear to spend her own money to buy a new liner, so she simply stole one from the tea room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But she didn't expect that the owner of the thermos was a boy from the Northeast who was tall, big, and burly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The boy went to find Ma Lan for the thermos, but was scolded by Ma Lan for half an hour while she pointed at his nose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the end, he couldn't help but slap Ma Lan, and Ma Lan chased him with a bottle of boiling water, wanting to scald him to death. The Northeast man was chased for more than ten minutes and still had his arm scalded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not only that, Ma Lan even threatened that if the other party dared to yell at her again, the next time it wouldn't be boiling water, but sulfuric acid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This scared the Northeast boy so much that not only did he not dare to pursue her crime of stealing the thermos and scalding him, but he even ran to beg her to let him go.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From then on, Ma Lan became famous in school.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since then, no one in school could afford to provoke Ma Lan. Even boys were often scolded and beaten by her if she was dissatisfied, and many boys in school were scolded by her until they couldn't lift their heads.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, upon hearing that Xiao Changkun had married Ma Lan, everyone was stunned!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Someone looked at Xiao Changkun with sympathetic eyes and asked: \"Changkun, I remember that Ma Lan was indeed pursuing you back then, but you were so outstanding at the time, how could you look at her?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Changkun was extremely angry and shouted: \"Why are you asking these things, are you annoying?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pan Yuanming was happy when he thought of this and explained with a smile: \"You guys don't know about this, but I do. Do you remember the reunion when we graduated in our senior year?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Someone echoed: \"I remember, I remember, I remember many people were drunk at that time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pan Yuanming laughed: \"It was that reunion. Ma Lan poured a catty of white liquor for Xiao Changkun, and Xiao Changkun couldn't handle it. Everyone wanted to send Xiao Changkun home, but Ma Lan said, don't send him, she could do it alone. In the end, this woman carried Xiao Changkun to the hostel by herself...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The hostel?! Holy crap, no way, right?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pan Yuanming smiled and said: \"You all left at that time, but I was a bit curious about this, so I followed them up to take a peek. Guess what happened?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't keep us in suspense, just finish it in one breath.\" Someone complained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pan Yuanming laughed and said: \"It was that time. Ma Lan slept with Xiao Changkun directly, and it was a one-shot hit. Not long after, she found out she was pregnant. Han Meiqing also flew to the United States because she graduated. Xiao Changkun had no choice but to marry Ma Lan, hahahahaha.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone laughed. No one expected that there was such an amazing inside story back then!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pan Yuanming’s son-in-law, Zhang Jian, added with a smile: \"Oh, Uncle Xiao is amazing! You are simply the real-life version of 'Charlotte's Troubles'. Auntie Han is that school beauty Qiu Ya, and Ma Lan is that Ma Dongmei, hahahahaha.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Ye Chen couldn't comment on this, he couldn't help but laugh in his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn't expect his father-in-law to have such a story, and his mother-in-law was always such a shrew, and she even got his father-in-law drunk and took the initiative to do that with him. This thing she did was simply devilish!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Other classmates couldn't help but feel sympathy for Xiao Changkun and encouraged and comforted him one by one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pan Yuanming looked at Xiao Changkun at this time and said with a smile: \"Don't be in such a hurry to sympathize with Xiao Changkun. Actually, Ma Lan was also quite miserable marrying Xiao Changkun!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone asked in confusion: \"What's miserable about her? Isn't Changkun more than enough to compensate her?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pan Yuanming sighed: \"Sigh, you don't know. Ma Lan back then was determined to find a rich second generation, so she set her sights on Xiao Changkun, thinking that the Xiao family had money back then, and if she latched onto Xiao Changkun, she would definitely be a rich lady in the future...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Speaking of this, Pan Yuanming changed the subject and mocked: \"But who knew that after Xiao Changkun graduated, he was such a loser, couldn't get resources or attention in the family, and the Xiao family kept becoming more and more down-and-out. Ma Lan wanted to latch onto a rich second generation, but didn't expect to end up latching onto a stinking loser!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Changkun was extremely ashamed and angry, his face flushed red. He held it in for a long time before saying: \"Pan Yuanming, you don't need to talk too much about my business!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pan Yuanming snorted coldly and said: \"Xiao Changkun, who in Jin Ling doesn't know about your family’s business? If you don't let me talk, can't everyone else find out through other channels?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, Pan Yuanming said loudly: \"Originally, your Xiao family still had some assets, and you could still use the Xiao family’s name to bluff people when you went out. Now the Xiao family is finished, you are a useless person who can't make money, Ma Lan is soaking in the mahjong hall every day and not doing her job, and this son-in-law is a loser who eats soft rice at home. Your whole family now relies on your daughter alone to live? I don't know what kind of evil your daughter did in her previous life to be born into your family and marry such a loser husband. It's really heartbreaking!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Ye Chen heard this, he couldn't help it anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was fine to talk about him, and even more so to talk about his father-in-law and mother-in-law, but he couldn't talk about Xiao Churan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because she was his wife.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So he frowned and said: \"Uncle Pan, you should just live your own life well. You don't need to worry about our family’s business.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pan Yuanming said with a look of disdain: \"What? As an old classmate, can't I care about your family’s situation?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After that, he said with an arrogant face: \"I just feel it's not worth it for Xiao Changkun’s daughter!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pan Yuanming became more excited as he spoke, stood up, and blurted out: \"Look at me, a section-level cadre in the Petrochemical Company, now I go to the unit to punch in every day, and I have a salary of 20,000 yuan a month. If I retire at sixty-five in the future, my monthly pension will be more than 20,000, and medical expenses and everything are 100% reimbursed!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My wife is also a deputy section-level cadre in the Petrochemical Company, earning 15,000 or 16,000 a month. After we both retire, the state will pay us 40,000 a month in pension!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Look at Xiao Changkun and Ma Lan again. Both of them are over fifty and still don't have a formal job. If they get old in the future, they won't even have a pension. Won't they become a burden to society?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Speaking of this, he pulled over his son-in-law and said seriously: \"Look at my son-in-law again, CEO of Jin Ling Dazhou Technology Company, the company is about to be listed on the Growth Enterprise Market! The company’s annual profit is at least one or two hundred million. Even in the whole of Jin Ling, he is considered one of the top people. Our family is thriving. This is what you call living!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The surrounding crowd was full of envy, constantly flattering Pan Yuanming and Zhang Jian.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Indeed, their family’s economic foundation was already very enviable among these old classmates.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pan Yuanming was also enjoying the exclamation and envy around him, looking at Xiao Changkun and Ye Chen with contempt, thinking, *This face-slapping, I’ve been looking forward to it for so many years, and it really didn't disappoint me! It's truly satisfying! It's truly gratifying!*\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, he didn't notice the playful smile on Ye Chen’s lips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Both husband and wife are cadres in the Petrochemical Company? The son-in-law is the CEO of Jin Ling Dazhou Technology Company? Good, I was just worrying about how to deal with you, and I didn't expect you to report your own family background. Isn't this just bumping into your own muzzle?\" \u003C\u002Fp>",1602,"2026-06-17T16:51:27.253Z","2026-06-18T03:30:09.135Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","5d1825958fe53cea8ce94b19e4747d4c74b568924546aec95148908002ba647f","the-dragon-son-in-law-chapter-294","the-dragon-son-in-law-chapter-292",1000,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-dragon-son-in-law-cover.jpg"]
