Chapter 411

At this moment, Tomson First Grade villa.

Ma Lan was lying on a lounge chair on the large, all-glass balcony on the second floor, unable to stop smiling as she looked at her phone.

The number of people who had liked her post had already exceeded three hundred, breaking the record since she started using WeChat.

As for the comments, they were coming in one after another, and she couldn't count them anymore, let alone reply to them.

Only today did Ma Lan finally experience what it meant to be the center of attention.

Everyone in her circle of friends was staring at her feed, not sparing any words of praise in the comment section, which made her feel relaxed and happy.

At this time, a few of Ma Lan's close sisters sent a message in the group tagging everyone: "Oh my, Sister Lan is moving into a big Tomson First Grade mansion today, you have to treat us to a meal no matter what!"

"Exactly, exactly!" Many people echoed, "Sister Lan, you've moved into a big mansion worth over a hundred million. Such a big happy event, it wouldn't be right not to treat us to a meal!"

In a while, everyone in the group came out, lining up to ask Ma Lan to treat them to a meal.

Ma Lan looked at their flattery while feeling extremely depressed inside.

Treat them to a meal? Where would she get the money?

Don't look at the fact that she lived in a mansion worth over a hundred million; she really couldn't even take out a thousand yuan.

At this time, someone else said, "With Sister Lan's status, at least treat us to Buckingham Palace to be appropriate!"

An older sister in the group said, "If Sister Lan treats us to a meal today, I'll take everyone to get a high-end spa in the evening, it feels really great!"

"Then I'll treat everyone to go singing at Golden Emperor KTV in the evening!"

"Then after singing, how about I treat everyone to get their feet rubbed and enjoy a foot massage?"

"Since you've all arranged things so densely, then I'll treat everyone to a late-night bar!"

Everyone had already finished arranging the evening's activities, so the leading older sister tagged Ma Lan and said, "Sister Lan, say something, everyone is waiting for you!"

Ma Lan saw that everyone had arranged things so well, and she really wanted to go out and play with her sisters.

After all, she had been too suppressed during this period and really wanted to take the opportunity to relax properly.

However, everyone wanted her to treat them to a meal, but she couldn't come up with the money!

Thinking of this, she could only make an excuse and say, "Oh my, sisters, I'm really sorry. Just moved in, there are still many places in the house to tidy up, I might not be able to find the time!"

"Oh my!" someone said, "Sister Lan, you've already moved into the villa, just tidy up slowly! Today is a big day for moving in, if you miss it, there won't be such a good omen!"

Ma Lan was also incredibly tempted.

It's just that money was a big problem!

Xiao Changkun had already returned the remaining money to Ye Chen, so she could only go find Ye Chen and get those tens of thousands of yuan back!

So she said to her friends, "Wait for me a moment, I'll confirm the time with my family and reply to you in a while."

The older sister said, "It's 1: 0 in the afternoon now, give us a definite answer before 3 o'clock so we can arrange our time!"

"Okay." Ma Lan hurriedly agreed, then got up quickly, wanting to find Ye Chen.

At this time, Ye Chen was cooking in the kitchen downstairs.

Because they had just moved into a new house, tidying up took quite a long time, so eating today was a bit later than usual.

However, Ye Chen was treated well; two beauties, Xiao Churan and Dong Ruolin, were both in the kitchen surrounding him and helping him, so cooking had become a kind of enjoyment.

After finishing the meal and bringing it out, Ma Lan also walked down from the elevator at this time.

She had originally planned to ask Ye Chen for money, but seeing everyone in the dining room preparing to eat, she hesitated for a moment.

It wasn't that she was embarrassed to speak to Ye Chen, but the key was that her husband and daughter were both here, so she felt it wasn't appropriate to speak immediately.

Just then, she heard the doorbell ring outside, so she said in surprise, "How come someone is visiting just after we moved in?"

After speaking, she turned and walked out the front door, crossing the courtyard to open the gate.

As soon as the gate opened, she was shocked to find Old Mrs. Xiao, with Xiao Changqian, Xiao Hailong, and Xiao Weiwei, standing at the door.

Ma Lan didn't know that the Xiao family had already been sealed off. Seeing Old Mrs. Xiao and her group, carrying big and small bags like refugees standing at the door, she frowned and asked, "Why are you here again?"

Seeing Ma Lan open the gate, Old Mrs. Xiao ignored her and stepped straight inside.

Ma Lan hurriedly blocked her path and said, "What are you doing? Breaking into a private residence, right? Do you believe I'll call the police to arrest you!"

Old Mrs. Xiao pushed Ma Lan aside and, while walking in, said with dissatisfaction, "Can't I come to see my son? Now I can't even enter your house?"

Ma Lan was anxious, grabbed her, and said, "You old woman, why can't you understand good or bad words? You are not welcome here, did you hear me? Don't run to our house for no reason in the future, leave quickly!"

Old Mrs. Xiao broke free from her and walked inside. As soon as she entered the living room, she smelled the aroma of food and couldn't help but sniff her nose.

It smells so good...

Much better than the duck rack and cabbage soup eaten at noon!

The key was that the meal at noon hadn't been finished when the court people came to the door, and after crying and howling for a while, the old lady was already starving.

At this moment, smelling this aroma, her stomach immediately rumbled.

Ma Lan heard this sound and immediately sneered, saying, "So you came to our house to beg for food... How arrogant you were back then, wanting four cold and eight hot dishes for every meal. How come you're starved to this ghost-like state now?"

Hearing Ma Lan's words, Old Mrs. Xiao's face turned red with anger. She wanted to curse back directly, but thinking that she still planned to live in Tomson First Grade and wanted to live a good life, she could only endure her for a while and soften her tone, "Good daughter-in-law, Mom is indeed hungry, can you at least let Mom have a bite to eat?"

Ma Lan sneered and said, "Don't dream about it. I'll give you ten seconds to get lost yourself, otherwise, I'll have the police come and take you away!"

Seeing that she couldn't reason with her, Old Mrs. Xiao shouted loudly inside, "Changkun! Can you bear to watch your mother starve to death?"

Xiao Changkun walked out with a worried face and said, "Mom, 1. 1 million was just given to you yesterday, what are you here for?"

Old Mrs. Xiao immediately sat on the ground and wailed, "My son, you don't know, the bank has already sealed our family's villa, and your brother and I have nowhere to stay now!"

After speaking, she looked at Xiao Changkun and begged with teary eyes, "Good son, you can't just watch your mother starve or freeze to death, right?"

Xiao Changkun was a bit surprised and blurted out, "What's going on? How could the villa be sealed?"

"Isn't it because of the debts owed by the Xiao Group!" Old Mrs. Xiao wiped away her tears and said, "Good son, you can't just stand by and watch us die. Your villa is so big, prepare two rooms for Mom. I'll sleep in one room with Weiwei, and let your brother sleep in one room with Hailong."

Ma Lan was immediately anxious and blurted out, "Old woman, why are you so shameless? I already said our house doesn't welcome you, and you still have the nerve to come over and want to stay. Aren't you ashamed?"

Old Mrs. Xiao ignored her, looked at Xiao Changkun, and begged, "Changkun, you are the head of the family, can you say a word for Mom?"

After speaking, she cried and said, "Mom begs you, Mom kneels to you!"
