Chapter 482: If You're Not Satisfied, You Can Move Out!

"Right!" A buddy in the group named Zhao Hao said: "Aunt Li had such a serious illness and finally recovered and returned. If we children raised by her don't go to see her immediately, she might feel disappointed."

Jiang Ming said: "How about this, let's find a five-star hotel and give Aunt Li a proper welcome reception."

Li Xiaofen said: "Jiang Ming, let's not be so extravagant. Aunt Li has been frugal all her life. If we go to such a good place to eat, she will definitely feel distressed. How about we just go to that home-style restaurant at the entrance of the welfare institute that has been open for many years!"

When Ye Chen thought of that home-style restaurant that had been open for more than ten years, he couldn't help but feel a wave of emotion.

On his 18th birthday, Aunt Li had taken the money she had saved by scrimping and saving, and taken him and a few buddies to eat a meal at that restaurant.

She also bought him a cake. After celebrating his birthday, he no longer met the adoption requirements of the welfare institute, so he stepped into society alone.

Thinking about it now, that meal he ate there was the warmest meal he had ever eaten in his life.

So he immediately said: "I really didn't expect that restaurant to still be open! The place Xiaofen chose is great! Let's meet there then!"

Jiang Ming replied: "I say Ye Chen, everyone has been working for so many years, we all have some savings, right? Facing Aunt Li, don't be so stingy, okay?"

Ye Chen said: "I'm not being stingy, I'm respecting Aunt Li's habits. If we treat Aunt Li to a five-star hotel, Aunt Li might not really be happy, but instead might feel it's too extravagant and wasteful, and will feel distressed for a long time."

Jiang Ming said: "Tch, don't I know you? Aren't you just trying to save a few bucks?"

As he spoke, Jiang Ming sent another voice message: "Ye Chen, I know you're not doing well. Being a live-in son-in-law, it's normal to have no money in your pocket. But Aunt Li raised you after all. With such great kindness, even if you bleed a little and pool money to treat her to a good meal, what can it be?"

Ye Chen couldn't help but frown.

This Jiang Ming had been at odds with him back when they were at the welfare institute. At that time, Jiang Ming relied on being stronger than his peers, formed cliques in the welfare institute, and often bullied other children together with others.

Ye Chen had also been targeted by the other party, but because he had practiced some martial arts when he was at the Ye family in Jingcheng, ordinary people were no match for him at all. So when Jiang Ming brought people to trouble him, the whole group was beaten by him until they cried for their parents and were looking for their teeth on the floor.

From then on, the extremely narrow-minded Jiang Ming held a grudge against Ye Chen, opposed him in everything, and targeted him everywhere.

Moreover, this guy had always had a crooked mind and often caused trouble for the welfare institute when he was a child.

He had been caught stealing outside several times, and in the end, it was always Aunt Li who came forward to pay money and apologize to save him.

Not having seen him for so many years, Ye Chen estimated that this person was probably no better now.

However, Ye Chen was too lazy to be on the same level as him, and said indifferently: "Say whatever you want, I still think the restaurant Xiaofen mentioned is the most appropriate."

Li Xiaofen also hurriedly said: "I think Brother Ye Chen makes sense. Aunt Li has been frugal all her life. If we treat her to a five-star hotel, she definitely won't be used to it."

Childhood buddy Zhao Hao also echoed: "I support it too!"

Others also expressed their agreement, so Li Xiaofen said: "Okay, there are ten of us who can come tonight, and nine of them support going to the old restaurant, so let's follow the minority to the majority! I'll go book a private room at that restaurant now! You guys hurry over too!"

"Good, good, good!" Everyone echoed and happily agreed.

Thinking that he could meet Aunt Li soon, Ye Chen couldn't help but feel a little excited.

Ever since Old Mrs. Xiao had her birthday and he was scolded for borrowing money at the birthday banquet, he hadn't seen Aunt Li again, because Aunt Li was sent directly to Jingcheng by Tang Sihai.

Ye Chen had a very deep affection for Aunt Li, almost treating her as his own mother.

When Aunt Li first got sick, Ye Chen tried his best, looking for ways to get money everywhere, even secretly looking for blood sellers to sell blood, and also took a lot of Xiao Churan's private money, all to keep Aunt Li alive.

If it weren't for him trying his best to raise money for Aunt Li, Aunt Li probably wouldn't have waited for Tang Sihai to appear, and might have already passed away.

However, Ye Chen felt that these were all things he should do. Even so, it was only one ten-thousandth of the kindness Aunt Li had shown him.

His father had taught him countless times before he died that a man in the world must know how to repay kindness. The ancients said, a drop of water in need should be repaid with a gushing spring, and Ye Chen had always demanded this of himself.

So, he couldn't care less that the noodles for Ma Lan were still cooking in the pot. He took off his apron, walked out of the kitchen, and said to Xiao Churan, who was accompanying Ma Lan: "Wife, I have something urgent, I need to go to the welfare institute!"

Ma Lan immediately asked: "Did you cook my noodles? I haven't eaten a single bite of food yet, and you want to go out?"

Ye Chen looked at her with disgust and said impatiently: "The noodles are cooking in the pot, you can scoop them out and eat them yourself later! Aunt Li has recovered and returned, I'm going to give her a welcome reception."

Upon hearing this, Ma Lan immediately cursed angrily: "Ye, what kind of attitude is this, you bastard? For the sake of an old woman from the welfare institute, you dare to talk to me like this?! Do you have any awareness of being a live-in son-in-law? Don't you look at whose food you eat, whose drink you drink, whose clothes you wear, and whose house you live in?"

As she spoke, Ma Lan mocked again: "What does it have to do with you even if that old woman dies?"

Ye Chen had endured Ma Lan for a long time. He had thought that this mother-in-law would change a little after staying inside for two days and suffering a bit, but he didn't expect that she hadn't changed at all.

What he didn't expect even more was that she dared to insult his benefactor, Aunt Li!

So he stared at Ma Lan and said angrily: "I eat my own food, drink my own drink, wear my own clothes, and live in my own house! Don't forget, this house was given to me by someone else, and the furniture inside was bought with money I earned from reading Feng Shui for others. So this is my attitude. If you are not satisfied, you can move out and go back to live in the old house!"

Upon hearing this, Ma Lan was so angry she couldn't speak!

She wanted to scold Ye Chen, but after thinking about it carefully, she found that he wasn't wrong at all.

It wasn't the past anymore. Before, he lived in her small house, not only living under someone else's roof but also unable to earn money, so she could scold him however she wanted.

Now he was successful. Someone gave him such an expensive villa and even decorated it for him, and he could earn millions by reading Feng Shui for others once.

Looking at herself, she was penniless. If Ye Chen really turned against her and didn't let her live here, what would she do?

Thinking of this, Ma Lan felt guilty. Looking at Ye Chen's angry face, she was also a little nervous and scared.

However, she still tried to save the situation, so she immediately looked at Xiao Churan aggrievedly and choked up: "Churan, your husband is too much. Is there any son-in-law in the world who talks to his mother-in-law like this? You don't manage him either. If this continues, won't he turn the world upside down?"

Unexpectedly, Xiao Churan said very seriously: "Mom, I think Ye Chen is right. Now we are living in a villa given to him by others. If it weren't for him, we wouldn't have the chance to live in such a good place, so you can't treat him like you used to. This is unfair!"
