When they recovered, they immediately shouted, “Oh my God, this chocolate costs 81 bucks.”
“Cough—” The mother of the child patted the child’s back, making them spit out the chocolate. The mother carefully wrapped the chocolate with the wrapper again.
The child smacked their lips, still savoring the sweetness from earlier.
Kang Weizhen and Sheng You did not know what to say. If they had known earlier, they would have picked some random gifts instead.
Back then, they had asked their assistants to casually buy some chocolates. Who knew that this would happen?
The house that Kang Weizhen and Sheng You bought for Grandma Liu was clean and spacious. It was the newly renovated house of the village chief, but no matter what, it couldn’t compare to the mansion in the city. However, after Sheng Yuxi and Sheng Hanjing entered, they weren’t at all unused to it. The two sons of the Sheng family hurriedly helped Sheng Yang move her things. After helping her move her things, they brought in their parents’ as well as their own things, as well as the gift for Grandma Liu.
Grandma Liu was grinning from ear to ear. She repeatedly praised Sheng You and Kang Weizhen for having such good sons. However, her eyes were still filled with worry. The eldest son had not come.
Could it be that the eldest son of the Sheng family still couldn’t accept Yangyang? Sigh, Yangyang was so smart and cute, but her cuteness was hard to notice by ordinary people. One had to slowly and carefully observe to see it.
Kang Weizhen guessed Grandma Liu’s concern and smiled. “Don’t worry, everyone in the family loves Yangyang.”
Grandma Liu nodded. With Kang Weizhen’s words, she felt much better.

There was another three-story house in the village. Although this house could not be compared to Grandma Liu’s new house, it was still considered rare in Bai Luan Village. It was not the simple brick hut that was common in the village. Looking from the outside, it looked like a suburban villa and was rather stylish.
In the room, a girl in her early 20s was dressed fashionably. She was doing her makeup in front of the mirror. She was talking to a middle-aged woman next to her, and there was no lack of jealousy in her tone. “This time, Sheng Yang is really in the limelight. It’s like she’s a completely different person.”
“That’s right. She’s really lucky. Back then, when I wanted her to get together with your brother, I didn’t even know about it when I went to look for Grandma Liu. It’s such a pity. If we had persisted back then, our family would be a royal family now,” the middle-aged woman echoed.
The person who said this was Zhao Lan of Bai Luan Village, and this young girl was her daughter, Huang Xiangyu.
Zhao Lan had a son and a daughter. Her son had taken a liking to Sheng Yang back then and thought that she was pretty. Zhao Lan originally didn’t agree to this marriage because Sheng Yang was an orphan. Her family had abandoned her and Grandma Liu didn’t have any money. However, she couldn’t persuade her son, so she found a matchmaker.
She thought that giving an orphan girl a betrothal gift of 5,000 yuan was already considered generous enough. Who knew that she would be chased out by Grandma Liu. She felt that Grandma Liu must have thought that the money was too little, so this matter was left unsettled.
Later on, when the Sheng family found Sheng Yang, they watched as the luxurious car drove Sheng Yang away. They watched as Grandma Liu moved into the mansion. Zhao Lan sulked for a long time. She got angry and fell sick.
How regretful!
As such, her son often provoked her.
Zhao Lan didn’t feel good about it, and Huang Xiangyu felt even worse.. When they were younger, Sheng Yang had always been prettier than her. She couldn’t stand her, so she kept suppressing her, but who knew that one day, Sheng Yang would actually soar to an unreachable height?
