Her son had failed her expectations, but she could still rely on her daughter.
"Right, you’re right! I can’t count on that ungrateful son of mine anymore! That small Western-style house in front will be yours, but I’m keeping the money for myself!" Grandma Wu was no fool; she wouldn’t hand over the money just like that.
That was her retirement fund.
"So, Mom, you agree?" Wu Jinjin was overjoyed.
It was a two-story Western-style house, and Wu Jinjin almost thought she was hallucinating. After all, in Grandma Wu’s eyes, boys were always the most important.
Grandma Wu nodded, "Take it, and let your brother regret his actions! Every time I think about what he’s done these past few days, it makes me uncomfortable. I’ve struggled so hard to raise him, and in the end, I’ve raised an enemy."
Just then, some significant noise came from the doorway.
Wu Jinjin said, "It’s Wu Qiang and the others."
Grandma Wu immediately stood up, "Then let’s hurry out to meet them."
On the other side, Wu Dalong and Wu Erlong were panting heavily as they ran to the Zheng Family’s home.
Normally, Ni Yan wouldn’t be home at this time, but coincidentally, she was just about to leave the house when she saw the two brothers, "Dalong, Xiaolong, what brings you here? Where’s your elder sister?"
Wu Dalong burst into tears, "Sister Yangyang, only you can save my elder sister now."
Ni Yan was shocked, "What’s going on? Don’t rush, take your time to explain."
Wu Dalong cried so hard he could barely catch his breath; he didn’t intend to cry, but he couldn’t help it when he saw Ni Yang.
Seeing Wu Dalong , Wu Erlong said, "Sister Yangyang, please go save my elder sister. She’s about to get married!"
How could she suddenly be getting married?
Ni Yang frowned slightly; she had seen Wu Yanyun just two days ago and had heard nothing about this.
"Let’s go to your house now, and you can tell me on the way." Ni Yang took Wu Dalong by one hand and Wu Erlong by the other and headed for the door.
After a few steps, Ni Yang realized walking was too slow, so she went back with the two children, "Let’s take a car!"
They called the driver, and all rushed to the Wu Family’s home.
It was Wu Dalong and Wu Erlong’s first time in a sedan; under normal circumstances, they would have been curious, but today, they didn’t have time for that.
In the car, Ni Yang roughly understood the situation.
Wu Yanyun’s parents were good, but her grandmother might not be.
The Zheng Family and Wu Family were three kilometers apart, a fifteen-minute drive but much longer by foot.
"Dalong, Erlong, how did you get here?" Ni Yang asked.
Wu Erlong cried, "Sister Yangyang, we ran here. Can we please hurry up? I’m afraid I won’t see my elder sister again when I get back..."
Only then did Ni Yang notice that the brothers were sweating profusely, and Wu Dalong had even scraped a big gash in his knee. These kids really weren’t having an easy time.
Ni Yang hurriedly urged the driver, "Uncle Liu, please, go faster."
The driver reluctantly said, "Miss, there are too many people on the road today..." It’s usually not this crowded, no idea what’s happening today.
Ni Yang continued, "Uncle Liu, let me do it."
The driver thought he had misheard, "Miss, what did you say?"
"I’ll drive." Ni Yang had quite enjoyed driving in her previous life, so she was skilled at it.
The driver never expected Ni Yang could drive, let alone that she could drive so well.
A woman driving was truly a rare sight back in the day!
Wu Jinjin and Grandma Wu walked outside, and indeed, Wu Qiang had come for the wedding procession.
It wasn’t just Wu Qiang; his mother, Wu Lan, and other relatives from the Wu Family were there, but the young men smoking at the front clearly meant trouble.
These were local ruffians Wu Lan had roped in to intimidate Wu Yanyun and Erju.
"The relatives are here," Grandma Wu said with a sycophantic smile.
Wu Lan somewhat looked down on this old lady. If Jinshu and Erju had willingly married into their family, that would be one thing, but clearly, the two were opposed.
She prided herself on her dignity and disliked making others uncomfortable, but Wu Qiang was too fond of Wu Yanyun!
For her son’s sake, she felt she had no choice.
"Where’s Yanyun?" Wu Lan asked.
Grandma Wu replied, "She’s inside. Jinjin, go bring Yanyun out."
"Okay." Wu Jinjin immediately headed inside.
Just then, Erju and Jinshu walked out from inside, blocking Wu Jinjin’s way.
