Rebirth: I Became Mr.President's Beloved-Chapter 1171
Tang Li pulled, but it didn’t move.
Xiao Minglan already spoke, trying to take back the Century-old Wild Ginseng: "This thing is a great tonic, suitable for patients. Young people have too much energy, over-supplementing isn’t good. If you like drinking ginseng tea, I’ll buy some Red Ginseng for you later."
Was Tang Li envious of this Wild Ginseng?
Of course not.
She simply didn’t want to give the ginseng to Li Hao.
Even though they’re blood relatives, Tang Li hasn’t forgotten Li Hao’s scheming against Song Baiyan.
Seeing Xiao Minglan about to fall into a stalemate with her over the ginseng, Tang Li casually mentioned: "When Bao grows up, I must tell him/her that grandma was afraid he/she couldn’t handle the tonic, so she gave the family’s tens-of-thousands-worth Wild Ginseng to outsiders."
Xiao Minglan: "..."
Was she the one who wanted to give away the Wild Ginseng?
It was clearly her son—Tang Li’s husband—who added it to the gift list.
Besides, was that person really an outsider?
Realizing Tang Li was prepared to disregard family ties for the Wild Ginseng, Xiao Minglan had to reason: "It’s just a Century-old Ginseng, if you truly want it, I can ask someone to help keep an eye out another day. We’ll just buy another one."
"Even if we buy another, it won’t be this ginseng."
Tang Li said: "Moreover, is it merely a ginseng?"
Xiao Minglan glanced at the ginseng in the box and saw no special features, yet Tang Li continued: "Some ginseng appears to be a tonic on the surface, but in reality, it’s your compassion for me and your love for your grandson."
Placed on a moral pedestal, Xiao Minglan was about to explain when her hand suddenly loosened.
—It was Tang Li who let go of the box.
"If you won’t give it, then you won’t give it." Tang Li said, "It’s clear grandma only has room for other families’ patients, no space for her own big chubby grandson."
Xiao Minglan: "..."
This is entirely unwarranted blame.
If she really had grandchildren, she would cherish them deeply.
How could she not love them or be attentive?
Seeing Tang Li get up to leave, Xiao Minglan had no choice but to compromise and push the box over: "If you want it, take it."
Tang Li halted but didn’t immediately reach to take it.
She glanced at Xiao Minglan: "This Wild Ginseng is so valuable, I’m afraid it wouldn’t be appropriate for me to accept."
"..." Xiao Minglan pursed her lips, pulling Tang Li’s left hand over, placing the box in her arms: "I told you to take it, why are you being polite with family."
"I think this is not very good." Tang Li licked her lips, feigning reluctance.
Saying this, her hands already hugged the box tightly.
"There’s nothing bad about it." Xiao Minglan concluded decisively: "Just treat it as my meeting gift for the golden grandson."
A few minutes later, Tang Li left with the Century-old Ginseng.
Xiao Minglan watched her hopping away, couldn’t help but sigh to Aunt Min: "I used to worry whether she would be unable to return to China for a long time after going back to the Li Family, due to Li Hao’s attempts to keep her. Now it seems I was overthinking."
Aunt Min: "You’re saying?"
"Knowing the ginseng was for her grand uncle, she still wants to grab it. Do you think she has much affection for the Li Family?"
Tang Li’s lack of feelings for the Li Family stems from Li Hao’s manipulations.
The Li Family is immensely wealthy; Li Hao certainly lacks for a ginseng.
Tang Li was about to put the ginseng back in the master bedroom, planning to find a drawer in the closet to store it, when her cellphone vibrated, receiving a WeChat message from Song Jingtian.
The little guy sent a voice message saying there’s good news and bad news, and asked which she’d like to hear first.
Tang Li replied: "I don’t want to hear either."
Song Jingtian: "..."
Thirty seconds later, the little guy sent the bad news.
"I accidentally blurted out to Cindy and the others that you’re my elder sister-in-law."
Tang Li paused while holding the cellphone and pulling the drawer, does this count as an oversight in her perfect plan?
She never expected that one day her relationship with Song Baiyan would be revealed through the little guy’s mouth.
However, before she could respond, Song Jingtian’s good news followed.
"But don’t worry, they don’t believe it."
"They say you’re not worthy."
Tang Li: "......"
What do they mean she’s not worthy?
Is she really that bad?
A bunch of kids who know nothing.
Tang Li had to get some clarity for herself and replied: "Explain, where do I not match up?"
Two minutes later, Song Jingtian sent a panting voice message—
"I asked, they said you’re not worthy in any aspect."
