If it was Jian Ai, they would still have doubts, but now that Wang Yunmei nodded in agreement, it could be said that Wang Yunfa’s worries were completely dispelled.
“Mom…” Wang Yunfa turned to look at the old lady, and his eyes couldn’t help but reveal a pleading expression.
The old lady naturally understood what her youngest son meant. Although the eldest son’s house had always been empty and no one lived in it, it was still his yard. At present, Wang Yunmei’s conditions were very clear. They needed two house deeds to exchange for two hundred thousand yuan.
After thinking about it, the old lady could not help but plan. The old house was empty, and the price her daughter offered was far above the current housing price in South City. If this succeeded, her youngest son would benefit.
Nodding her head gently, the old lady looked at Wang Yunmei and said, “Alright, I’ll go tell your elder brother that it’s a pity that the old house is empty. If you need it, I’ll sell it to you.”
“It’s a deal then!” When Wang Yunfa heard the old lady’s words, he knew that she would talk to his brother about this. He immediately looked at Wang Yunmei with a delighted expression and said, “Sister, you can’t go back on your word.”
Wang Yunmei couldn’t help but feel a little guilty. Perhaps when the news of the demolition spread, they would be the ones to regret it.
Jian Ai looked at Wang Yunfa and answered seriously, “Of course I won’t regret it. Uncle, don’t regret it either.”
Wang Yunfa didn’t think about anything else. When he thought about how his lousy house could be exchanged for two hundred thousand yuan, it was like a pie falling from the sky. He narrowed his small eyes and smiled. “No, no. I won’t regret it.”
Now that the matter had been settled, the two of them didn’t stay any longer. Wang Yunfa urged the old lady to ask his elder brother for the deed tonight. They will receive the two hundred thousand yuan tomorrow.
After the two of them left, Wang Yunmei took a deep breath, and her tensed nerves relaxed.
Suddenly, Jian Ai grabbed her hand. Wang Yunmei turned her head and saw her daughter gently patting her hand. Her tone was calm and comforting. “Mom, don’t blame me. If they didn’t take advantage of us time and time again, I wouldn’t be willing to plot against them. I thought that since we’re estranged, we would just lead our own lives. However, it’s obvious that some people aren’t willing to let us lead a peaceful life.”
Wang Yunmei pursed her lips. She naturally knew that her daughter was also forced into a corner. If she didn’t handle this matter today, the old lady and her brother wouldn’t stop until they received the money.
However, when she thought of the trouble in the future, Wang Yunmei couldn’t help but feel worried. “We’ve tricked your two uncles. Now, we’ve bought their two houses for two hundred thousand yuan. If they waited until the demolition began, the value of the houses would have multiplied by a few times and they would even get two relocation houses. If they find out about this, they’ll cause a scene.”
Jian Ai smiled indifferently when she heard that. “Then, they can’t blame us. Even biological brothers have to settle the accounts between them. There’s no reason to give money for nothing. The only valuable thing my uncle has is that yard. We also gave him tens of thousands of yuan more, which saved him from his urgency. Through this matter, we have to let these people understand that no one is a fool. Don’t think that our family is easy to bully.”
Wang Yunmei nodded slightly. “This is the only thing we can do for now. If they cause a scene in the future, we’ll talk about it later.”
Wang Yunmei looked at her watch and quickly stood up. She said to Jian Ai, “Mom needs to go to work. Be good at home and sleep early tonight.”
Jian Ai nodded and watched as Wang Yunmei hurriedly pushed the door open and left.
