Chapter 752: Chapter 726: The Charm of a City Broker
“Look at you, so opportunistic. You pile praise on Qian’er when it benefits you, and then accuse her of being arrogant when it doesn’t. You happily buy things for your sister, even asking for my help to choose…”
“Don’t wrong . I just grumbled a bit out of worry. I couldn’t really do anything to her. Shouldn’t I buy what needs to be bought? Even though I don’t understand why won need so many bags…”
Eldest Sister-in-law glanced at him, “What do you know! It’s an instinct for won to buy bags! In primitive tis, won would carry baskets for gathering. So our love for bags is instinctive, and suppressing instincts is a source of family suffering!”
“…Why does this sound like sothing Younger Sibling would say?”
“Of course! Xiao Qian is so brilliant. After she ca along, my mood has lightened up. Whenever I’m down, I look to her! Look at how natural I am now when I go bag shopping!” Eldest Sister-in-law likes Xiao Qian.
“Wife… I’ll say it as it is, didn’t you buy quite a lot of bags before too? Why only praise Younger Sibling, but not , who earns the money?”
...
“Even though I used to buy bags, I bought them whilst feeling miserable. Every ti I bought one, I would regret it, thinking why I was spending like this? If I already have bags, why do I desire new models when they co out? But then Xiao Qian gave a lesson, I now know that this is a woman’s instinct; suppressing it is bad! n all have dreams of being a hero, won all want handbags, that’s just instinct! So now every ti I buy a bag, I do so happily!”
…Eldest Brother was lost for words. So, no matter what happened, he had to spend money? Was the only difference whether it was spent with bitterness or comfort? Younger Sibling’s ability to brainwash was truly … regardless, he really should thank Younger Sibling this ti, for bags and the like, just go with these won’s instincts.
Boss Qian dealt with this case in an unprecedented way – by revealing her client’s secrets. But still, she felt peace within her heart.
For dealing with these marriage scams, this was the way to go. Moreover, this case involved the interests of the Yu Family. Boss Qian was determined not to yield.
After the incident, Eldest Brother kept thanking Xiao Qian over the phone. Xiao Qian graciously accepted the compensation he offered. She was always straight to the point, whether it was sothing she had to do or sothing she desired.
Not only did Eldest Brother call, but two days later, Father Yu, who beca aware of the event, also made a special call to highly praise Xiao Qian’s performance.
Of course, Father Yu’s standpoint is different from businessman Eldest Brother. Father Yu simply believes that marriage fraud is bad and supports Xiao Qian’s righteous revelation. Xiao Qian even feigned reluctance, stating, as a psychologist, revealing a patient’s secret was a bit against her conscience…
Father Yu imdiately took a stand for justice, giving Xiao Qian a serious moral lesson, to not construe so rules and regulations and to compromise for justice.
Xiao Qian was temporarily living with Liu i until her new house was ready. When Yu Minglang ca to see Xiao Qian, he saw his wife holding a very familiar Purple Clay Teapot and carefully examining sothing on the table.
“Where did this painting co from? Oh! It’s Zheng Banqiao’s bamboo! Is it authentic?” Yu Minglang was able to tell at first glance; he reached out to touch it, but was slapped away by Xiao Qian.
“Don’t dirty our daughter’s dowry.”
“Where’s our daughter?” Seeing his little gold digger so fond of it, Yu Minglang guessed that this painting, which didn’t look too big, was probably an original, and he also paid close attention to it.
His wife had an affinity for these ancient artifacts, but she was also stingy and unwilling to buy them. Usually, it was when treating people that she conveniently extorted them. Even his uncle was blackmailed a few tis, but anyone who gifted Xiao Qian sothing did it willingly, because Xiao Qian helped them resolve issues that money couldn’t buy.
“This is from the family of the girl we helped out. They sent it to our father, and he had soone bring it over to . They said they greatly appreciate my dical ethics. They praised my father highly, saying our family had high standards in educating family mbers. The old man was pleased with the complint, not only did he give the painting so I could learn from these upright bamboos, to not stick to one pattern, and to be a moral doctor, he also rewarded with a teapot, to cultivate my sentint and console my wounded heart.”
Yu Minglang understood that this was from the family of the homosexual woman they had jointly addressed marriage fraud with and who highly appreciated his father. The elders on the woman’s side praised his old man to the skies and incidentally A>, before closing with praise for Xiao Qian.
The old man liked people who praised him and his family for being righteous, so he definitely felt good about it. The problem was—
“What injury did you suffer?”
Yu Minglang really couldn’t see where his wife had been injured.
After the incident surfaced, Eldest Brother thanked her, bought her bags and things, the old man praised her, the other party’s family also thanked her, she had made so much money that it seed to be overflowing. Where was the injury?
Xiao Qian dramatically clutched her chest, “As a doctor, how could I disclose a patient’s information? That is against dical ethics! But my conscience… It won’t let watch an innocent girl be scamd into a fraudulent marriage. My conscience is under imnse tornt, am I still a qualified doctor? I… When I do this, does my little heart not hurt?”
Yu Minglang rolled his eyes. “Wife, these dramatics might fool the old man, but please don’t try them with . You think this poor performance will convince him, but do you think it will work on ? Should I really praise your acting?”
Xiao Qian scoffed, “Yu Xiaoqiang, stop being sarcastic. Let ask you, in your heart, am I a woman who only recognizes money? You think I do all this just for profit?”
“Not at all. My wife is a compassionate woman. Even without money or benefits, she can’t ignore the situation.”
Yu Minglang wasn’t just buttering her up, he truly ant it.
“As far as I’m concerned, my Qian Bao is like the bamboo in a master’s painting, standing tall and defiant, possessing a small hint of greed for worldly success but also maintains the righteousness of a healer. Pretty good.”
His words pleased Xiao Qian, and she spent more ti appreciating the teapot and painting, loving them more with each look. An original really was different from a copy. Just look at the brushwork, the composition by Master Zheng. Even soone like her, not particularly into art, was increasingly attracted.
“Wife, what have you learned from this painting?” Yu Minglang cuddled Xiao Qian from behind, resting on her shoulder as they admired the painting together.
“For thirty years I have drawn bamboo, brushed and thought of it in day and night. Master’s paintings indeed give people a lot of insights.”
“Speak plainly.”
“The size is a bit small, so the auction price may be a bit cheaper, but it can still increase to tens of millions in the future. Let’s keep it as a dowry for our daughter.”
“Pff!” Sure enough, his wife was still this adorable, charming in her shrewdness.
