Chapter 444: When he wanted to ask for money, he would call her mom
The unfilial son acted as if nothing had happened and did not feel the slightest bit of guilt towards his own mother.
“Ms. Du, why are you here?” Lu Beixiao asked with a very disdainful tone.
“What’s wrong? As a mother, can’t I come to my son’s and daughter-in-law’s house to have a look?!” Ms. Du said in a bad mood. He acted as though she had no right whatsoever to be there.
“Auntie! Brother Xiao didn’t mean that! Please don’t be angry!” Ye Qiao quickly tried to mediate between them and kicked Lu Beixiao under the table.
That was exactly what he wanted to mean though.
However, for the sake of his wife, he would give Mrs. Du some face.
“I’m here to visit Qiao Qiao,” Mrs. Du rolled her eyes at Lu Beixiao and said. Then, she turned around and looked at Ye Qiao with an amiable smile.
“Qiao Qiao, you had such a big incident that night. Everyone was quite concerned about you. You weren’t hurt that night, right?” she asked concerningly.
“Oh Auntie, no I did not. With brother Xiao around, how could anyone possibly hurt me? I was just too tired from fighting with those bad guys. I’ve been resting for the past two days and didn’t go out…” the more Ye Qiao spoke, the more guilty she felt.
“That’s good. If you encounter such things in the future, don’t rush forward and call for help first,” Mrs. Du hurriedly said.
Ye Qiao obediently agreed.
“When do you plan to hold your wedding?” Mrs. Du asked next.
“October 1st. Oh right, mom, you have to prepare the betrothal gifts! Qiao Qiao didn’t even ask our family for a house,” Lu Beixiao suddenly voiced out.
! ! !
Bastard!
When he wanted to ask for money, he would call her mom out of the blue.
Didn’t ask for a house? Whose ancestral property was this courtyard house anyways? However, she also knew that this courtyard house had already been transferred to Ye Qiao’s name by him.
Ye Qiao simply didn’t have the face to raise her head. Lu Beixiao, you’re really too much.
“Auntie! There’s no need for any betrothal gifts. Brother Xiao and I have a good relationship and are free to fall in love. We don’t care about those things,” Ye Qiao said trying to soften the atmosphere.
“Look, my wife is so sensible. Mom, do you have the nerve not to give her a betrothal gift?”Lu Beixiao lovingly touched the back of Ye Qiao’s head, looked at Mrs. Du and raised his voice.
! ! !
Since he had said so, how could a mother-in-law like her have the face not to do so?
“Qiao Qiao, how can this betrothal gift be little? Auntie only has one precious son, right?” Mrs. Du said with a kind smile, “But in the future, you can keep all your assets by yourself. Don’t give him a single cent.”
Mrs. Du was so angry at this bastard son that her heart was biased toward her daughter-in-law.
At that moment, Lu Beixiao smiled proudly and said, “Mom, to tell you the truth, Qiao Qiao only gives me 20 yuan a month as pocket money. Otherwise, I would have asked you for money to buy a diamond ring and wedding dress.”
Ye Qiao lowered her head and couldn’t help but laugh.
Mrs. Du had a confused look on her face. It took her quite a while to react.
! ! !
She always wondered why this bastard son of hers was so poor. He even asked her for 100,000 yuan and 200,000 yuan before.
So he gave all of them to his wife.
“Qiao Qiao, in my opinion, you’d better have a daughter in the future. It would be great to have a granddaughter for Auntie. Men in the Lu family are not picky husbands. As sons… forget it, I’d rather not have one,” Mrs. Du really couldn’t continue the conversation. She got up and was about to leave. Ye Qiao quickly went to see her off. Mrs. Du spoke to her earnestly like someone who had been through this before.
“Brother Xiao, the wedding dress? Where is it?” Ye Qiao asked frantically as she immediately went back in and checked the closets and cupboards after seeing Mrs. Du off.
