Rebirth: The Comeback of the Girl-Chapter 684 - 683: From Frugality to Extravagance

Aunt Li’s attitude was too firm, so Mrs. Zhen had to give in and continue dealing with Zhen Yu on the phone.

"What the heck! Mom is just used to Aunt Li helping me out. All of a sudden, she wants to leave, I’m afraid I might not get used to it quickly, and I won’t be able to handle it alone!"

This time, Zhen Yu didn’t even bother to laugh and directly lifted the veil between mother and daughter: "Didn’t Zhen Yan give you money?"

"Ah... Well, wasn’t Aunt Li’s salary always paid by you guys?"

"..." Zhen Yu frowned, then didn’t think twice about rebutting!

"Aunt Li is Aunt Li! Others are others! My brother and I have no obligation to support her for you! That’s that!"

After saying the last sentence, Zhen Yu suddenly hung up the phone!

Mrs. Zhen sat on the sofa, stunned for a few seconds, before she realized what had happened! Instantly, she almost blew her top!

Seeing her heaving chest, Aunt Li immediately realized Zhen Yu must have given Mrs. Zhen a piece of her mind! Although she secretly chuckled at the girl’s character, having spent so much time with Mrs. Zhen, she felt some affection, so she tried to advise before leaving.

"Give me a break! Did you really think Zhen Yan paying my salary was approved by your daughter?! I told you from the start when we analyzed it, it was definitely your eldest son paying out of his pocket without telling Zhen Yu! You just wouldn’t believe it! Do you believe it now?"

Mrs. Zhen: "..."

"Moreover, I heard what Zhen Yan told you before coming here! He said one third of the profits from the First High School internet cafe go to you every month! Isn’t that enough money for you to spend? How can you still ask your daughter for money? You do nothing all day and want so much money for what? Before you could say it was for treating your younger son, and now?"

"What about now! Can’t I save a bit more money now!?"

Mrs. Zhen seemed to be triggered by one of Aunt Li’s sentences! Suddenly she retorted loudly: "How much money is it really? You’ve lived in the Capital for half a year, don’t you know how expensive things are here? What is that little money good for? Not to mention food and drink, Xiao Ci will need to go kindergarten in two years! The kindergarten outside this community, you went with me to ask about it, didn’t you hear how expensive it is? If I don’t save more money, what will I use to support his schooling?!"

This really angered Aunt Li!

"Your own son! How to support him is your own business! Always expecting your ex-husband’s children to pay, what kind of logic is that! He’s going to kindergarten and you can’t earn some money yourself? If you’re truly that lazy, then take him back to Mr. Gu! After all, he’s the child’s real dad, and moreover, a son! Wouldn’t he care at all?"

"You! It’s none of your business, our family matters! Just leave quickly!" Mrs. Zhen was furious.

"Hah!" Aunt Li let out a scornful laugh, her attitude towards Mrs. Zhen, which was already disdainful, changed suddenly and completely disregarded her!

"I’ve never seen any woman around as lazy as you! I’m leaving, take care of yourself!"

—

Not to mention Mrs. Zhen was infuriated by the words Aunt Li left her with!

Just focusing on Zhen Yu’s side! Since she hung up the phone, her mood had drastically changed.

Han Mingyue tightened the hand she was holding while looking at Zhen Yu, feeling somewhat worried for her.

Mrs. Zhen’s behavior was always somewhat unbearable! There’s no telling what she did this time to upset Xiao Yu...

Should I console her or comfort her? That’s a tough choice.

Fortunately, Zhen Yu might have already gotten used to not expecting anything good when dealing with Mrs. Zhen, so feeling the strength of Han Mingyue’s grip, she immediately raised her head. Looking into Han Mingyue’s clear eyes, Zhen Yu suddenly asked a question!

"You think the financial freedom I gave Zhen Yan is too much?"

Han Mingyue was stunned, just about to ask her why she would say such a thing!

Zhen Yu then asked again, "Also, did I give her too much money?"

Han Mingyue reacted for a moment! Then she realized that the latter ’her’ referred to Mrs. Zhen, not the ’him’ she had in mind.

"Aunt Cheng, she,"

"Pfft! It’s easy to go from frugality to luxury, but hard to return to frugality from luxury. Once Zhen Yan finishes her exams, I’m going to make her struggle along with him!"

Han Mingyue was silent for a while, glancing at her brother, only to find that Han Jiayang, sitting beside her, was pretending to be clueless!

So, he straightforwardly said, "I think your idea is good!"

"Then it’s settled!" Zhen Yu suddenly clapped her hands in joy. "Let’s not talk about her anymore! It’s frustrating just to bring it up!"

"Alright! Let’s talk about the plans for the summer vacation then!" Han Mingyue immediately switched topics smoothly.

—

"Plans for the summer vacation..." Without Han Mingyue bringing it up, Zhen Yu almost forgot about some things! The moment it came to her, she hurriedly said, "Let’s go! No waiting for that blockhead Zhen Yan! You and your brother help me tidy the house! We might have guests over the summer."

Han Mingyue was extremely surprised! "Who? Who’s coming?"

"Liu Ting and Qian Duoduo!" Zhen Yu revealed a hint of a smile on her face, "It’s just a possibility, nothing confirmed yet!"

"Oh! They want to come to Qi City to play after their middle school exams?"

Han Mingyue finally felt relieved, as long as it wasn’t those messy relatives of Zhen Yu from Laha Town!

"Yes! Liu Ting called me saying she did well! Qian Duoduo did well too, wants to come out to unwind."

Han Mingyue noticed the change in Zhen Yu’s tone when mentioning Qian Duoduo, but didn’t inquire further since it was a matter between the girls and didn’t directly involve him.

Thus led by Zhen Yu, the Han Family brothers followed her home to clean.

After tidying up almost everything, just as Zhen Yu was about to start cleaning the windows, Han Mingyue immediately stopped her!

"From now on, I’ll clean the windows. You stay away from the window!"

Zhen Yu looked down at the light purple floral half-sleeve shirt she was wearing.

Just about to speak, Han Jiayang suddenly chimed in foolishly: "Exactly! It’s not safe! Besides, you’re not tall enough!"

"...Alright then! You guys clean, I’ll wash the rags for you down here!"

The Han Family brothers, with their long arms and legs, were really quick at cleaning windows! In no time, all four windows in both the north and south directions were cleaned.

Then the three of them took turns to wash their hands and faces in the bathroom, wiped off their sweat, and then sat side by side on the sofa and turned on the television.
