"As long as grandpa likes it, it doesn’t matter how much money is spent." Wen Wan smiled as she placed the ancient painting box on the table, then sat down, "When I divorced your uncle, I received half of the family fortune. I donated a portion of that money to so impoverished children and invested in several small projects. Although I didn’t earn much, there is still a monthly inco. My personal expenses are not large, and I don’t need to support my son, so I obviously can’t take the money with into the coffin, right?"
Shi Keke stopped what she was doing, put down the mirror and eyebrow pencil, walked over to Wen Wan, and crouched down, gently holding her hand: "Auntie, you’re always like this, always putting people around you first and never considering your own feelings. The past is over, and it’s ti for you to let it go. Try to ignore others more and be kinder to yourself."
"Silly girl." Wen Wan’s eyes were slightly moist, "In this lifeti, if you don’t live for your parents and elders, you live for your sons and daughters. If you truly ignore the people around you for your own sake, maybe one day you will regret it."
"Auntie..."
Shi Keke wanted to say sothing else, but Wen Wan interrupted her, "Alright, hurry up and get ready, Chengzi just called and said she and Xiao Yu have already arrived."
Shi Keke was a sensible person and knew that saying more now would only bring more worry, so she followed Wen Wan’s lead and changed the subject, complaining: "My brother and sister-in-law really, on an occasion like this, couldn’t even wait for us to go together."
Wen Wan laughed: "Perhaps they wanted so couple’s ti."
"I don’t care." Shi Keke said: "Later, I’m going to make them drink alcohol as a penalty."
"Alright, alright, penalty drinks it is, let’s get them drunk," Wen Wan agreed amiably.
"Auntie, how can you be even less serious than ..."
"You girl." Wen Wan was at a loss with her, so she brought up Shi i, "You better hurry and get ready, Little i ca over this morning saying she’ll co to pick you up at ten o’clock."
"Pick up?" Shi Keke raised her eyebrows, "What about you?"
"You all don’t need to worry about . I will go to the mall first and then take a taxi there on my own."
"No way, we can’t let you go by yourself. Tell you what, auntie, when my brother cos over at ten, let him take you to grandpa’s place first. Tell what you need to buy and I can drive there to get it. After I’ve bought it, I can bring it over to you."
Shi Keke’s thoughtfulness brought a satisfied smile to Wen Wan’s face, "The things I need to buy are all for the kitchen. You’re usually so busy with work and don’t have ti to cook, I’m afraid you won’t even find the basic cooking condints if you went shopping for them."
"But..."
"No buts, just listen to ."
From a very young age, Shi Keke always listened to Wen Wan, and she respected her just as much even when she grew up. So, when she could not win an argunt, she would simply let Wen Wan have her way.
After Wen Wan left, Shi Keke quickly finished applying her makeup, then went to her room and pulled out the gown she brought over last night, put it on, and found it was a bit tight, unable to pull the zipper up at the lower back.
Since she had to reach behind and there was no mirror in the room, she had to go to the living room to adjust it.
Next to the Mysterious Gate was a wall-sized mirror about three to four ters long. She stood sideways in front of the mirror and tried to pull up the zipper on the lower back.
But because it was too tight, even in front of the mirror, she couldn’t pull it up...
