Chapter 404

Outside the villa, Xiao Changgan saw the old lady, his son, and his daughter come out together and immediately stepped forward to ask, "Mom, did they give the money?"

Old Mrs. Xiao said with a dark face, "They gave it, let's go!"

Seeing that Old Mrs. Xiao seemed very angry, Xiao Changgan hurriedly pulled Xiao Hailong aside and whispered, "What's going on? Is your grandma angry?"

Xiao Hailong waited until his sister and grandma had walked further away before whispering, "Dad, Grandma is too much!"

"Watch your mouth!" Xiao Changgan roared in a low voice, reprimanding, "We are relying on your grandma now. If you say that about her, what if she hears it?"

Xiao Hailong said angrily, "Dad! Do you know what Grandma just said to Second Uncle? She said she would give that set of furniture to Second Uncle for free, as long as Second Uncle left her a room in this villa and let her live here! Fortunately, Second Uncle didn't pay attention to her, and Ma Lan even cursed her out!"

"What?!" Xiao Changgan's face changed instantly upon hearing this!

Good!

His own mother was really a fence-sitter!

Before anything happened, she looked down on his brother's family in every way, and it was she herself who drove them away.

Now that she saw the Xiao family was failing and his brother's family was living in a big villa, she wanted to defect instead?

You only think about living in a big villa and don't consider our family of three at all!

His bitch of a wife ran away with the money, and their family of three had no source of income, relying entirely on you selling old items to save the day. And now you actually want to cast us aside and go enjoy yourself!

Thinking of this, Xiao Changgan was also furious!

However, he dared to be angry but didn't dare to speak, so he could only whisper to Xiao Hailong, "We must find a way to get the antiques Grandpa left behind from your grandma and keep a backup for ourselves."

Xiao Hailong hurriedly said, "Grandma has never been willing to say! I've asked her, and she never answers me directly. The old woman is very cunning!"

Xiao Changgan said coldly, "Take it slow. Keep a close eye on your grandma these two days. Except for going to the bathroom, follow her closely!"

"Okay!"

The Xiao family left, and Ma Lan laughed heartily in the new villa.

Although she still held a grudge about Xiao Changkun changing his phone password to Han Meiqing's birthday, and also held a grudge about Xiao Changkun spending all the money without giving her any, today she had fiercely confronted Old Mrs. Xiao, which swept away more than twenty years of resentment, making her incredibly happy.

What made her even happier was that she was finally moving into this villa!

She never dared to dream of such a luxurious house before, but now it was right in front of her!

Now only the sofa and furniture had arrived, but by the afternoon, the people from the furniture city would successively deliver the other furniture and appliances, and then they could officially move in!

Ma Lan was incredibly excited and said to Xiao Churan, "Your dad and I are going to live in the biggest bedroom on the third floor!"

Xiao Churan nodded and said, "You two can live on the third floor. Ye Chen and I will live on the second floor."

As she spoke, she added, "By the way, I promised Ruolin before that I would leave a room for her when we moved into the villa. Ruolin has been in Jin Ling for quite a long time and has been living in a hotel; it's quite pitiful."

Ma Lan hurriedly asked, "Is it Dong Ruolin from the Dong family in Yanjing?"

"Yes," Xiao Churan said, "It's her."

Ma Lan smiled, "That's good! The Dong family is very powerful, and their strength is on par with the Song family. If you maintain a good relationship with her, she might be of great use in the future!"

As she spoke, Ma Lan hurriedly ran toward the elevator and said, "I'll go to the third floor first to see how to arrange the bedroom!"

Ye Chen said to Xiao Churan, "Shall we go to the second floor and take a look too?"

Xiao Churan nodded and walked up the stairs to the second floor with him.

The layout of the second floor was the same as the third floor, both having three rooms, including one large bedroom and two slightly smaller bedrooms.

The large bedroom was a suite, with a living area outside and an independent bathroom.

Ye Chen and Xiao Churan of course chose this room, then left the bedroom next door for Dong Ruolin.

There was another room on the second floor, which Xiao Churan planned as her study. Her company often needed to work on design drawings and construction plans, so she needed a room where she could work.

Ye Chen and Xiao Churan looked around the room, and he deliberately said to Xiao Churan, "Wife, the bed we bought seems to be 2.3 meters wide, right?"

"Hmm." Xiao Churan nodded and said, "This bedroom is too big; choosing a 1.8-meter bed wouldn't look good."

Ye Chen chuckled and said, "With a 2.3-meter bed, isn't it a bit too wide for you to sleep alone?"

Xiao Churan immediately understood what he meant, her face turned red, and she asked in a low voice, "What do you mean?"

Ye Chen said with a grin, "Wife, don't you understand what I mean? I've been sleeping on the floor for three years; it's time to upgrade a level, right?"

Xiao Churan said shyly, "Upgrade what level? I don't understand what you're saying."

Ye Chen hurriedly said, "It means upgrading from the floor to the bed."

Xiao Churan said with a blushing face, "No one said you couldn't upgrade. Once I asked you if the floor was cold, and you said it wasn't. You didn't want to upgrade yourself, so who are you blaming?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Chen was overjoyed and smiled, "Wife, then after we move into the new house, I'll officially upgrade, okay?"

Xiao Churan said very shyly, "Whatever you want!"

After finishing, she hurriedly left the room.

Ye Chen felt wonderful inside. He had been sleeping on the floor for more than three years; it seemed it was time for the serf to stand up and sing!

In the afternoon, the people from the furniture company drove several trucks over to deliver and install the furniture.

Two bedrooms were arranged on the second and third floors each, and an extra study was arranged on the second floor.

In the afternoon, the furniture and appliances were all delivered. Only some daily necessities like pots, pans, quilts, and pillows were missing, and they could live here directly.

Ma Lan lay on her big bed worth over a hundred thousand, rolling around excitedly, and said to Xiao Changkun, "I plan not to leave today; I'm sleeping here tonight!"

Xiao Changkun frowned and said, "How can we live here tonight? There are no quilts, and no toiletries!"

Ma Lan said, "Anyway, I don't want to go back to live in that broken house!"

Xiao Changkun said with a bit of disgust, "Whether you live here or not is up to you. Anyway, I'm going back to live tonight. We'll pack things up and get them sorted out before moving over together. If you don't want to go, you can live here by yourself."

Ma Lan thought about how there wasn't even a quilt here, so she said sullenly, "Alright then, let's go back tonight and pack up together, and find a truck tomorrow to move everything over at once!"

As she spoke, Ma Lan deliberately asked, "How much money does our family have left?"

Xiao Changkun asked vigilantly, "Why are you asking that?"

Ma Lan said, "Can't I just ask?"

Xiao Changkun said, "There's only a few tens of thousands left in the family. I warn you not to have any ideas about this money. If you want to spend money in the future, go out and earn it yourself. Otherwise, in this family, you have food to eat, a place to live, and things to use, but there's nothing for you to spend!"

Upon hearing this, Ma Lan couldn't suppress the fire in her heart anymore. She blurted out, "Xiao Changkun, did I give you face, damn it? You've been getting more and more arrogant with me these past two days!"

Xiao Changkun asked coldly, "Don't forget, you lost over two million of the family's money. I'm already being very polite to you by treating you like this!"

Ma Lan cursed angrily, "Stop giving me that bullshit! You changed your phone password to Han Meiqing's birthday; I haven't settled that score with you yet! I really didn't expect it! I've given birth to a daughter for you for over twenty years, and you're still thinking about that thousand-cut fox spirit in your mind! What, do you still want to rekindle the old flame with that fox spirit?!"
