Chapter 64: Exchanging with the House Deed

Many things happened when Jian Ai was very young. Jian Ai should not have had an impression of them. However, after her rebirth, Jian Ai remembered clearly everything that had happened after she was born.

Everyone fell silent because what Jian Ai said was the truth. No one could deny it.

To protect that pitiful kinship, Wang Yunmei had made sacrifices and concessions all these years. However, it was just wishful thinking on her part. These so-called family members were like vampires wanting nothing more than to gnaw at her bones.

Jian Ai glanced at the old lady and Wang Yunfa. Seeing that they didn’t say a word, she said softly, “Grandma, Uncle, my mother has done a lot for you all these years. She didn’t ask for anything in return, but at least she knows when to stop. Everyone, put yourself in her shoes. After all, we have the same blood flowing in our bodies. No matter how thin our relationship is, I still have to address you as Grandma and Uncle even if my bones are broken, right?”

As soon as she finished speaking, Jian Ai straightened her body and took a sip of the cold tea on the table. Then, she continued, “Uncle is Grandma’s son. Grandma loves him and is afraid that he won’t be able to find a wife and get married. We understand this. After all, he is my mother’s brother. My mother is also anxious for him. But you can’t take my mother for granted and ask her for money just because she is easy to manipulate.”

“We have no choice…” The old lady sighed. She knew that she was in the wrong after hearing Jian Ai’s words, so her tone softened.

Seeing that her mother’s attitude had changed, Wang Yunmei’s heart softened. Just as she was about to say something, she felt her daughter tighten her grip on her hand. Before she could think about it, Jian Ai said, “I also said just now that my family does have money, but we won’t lend it to you. Grandma, don’t think that your granddaughter has a heart of stone. I don’t believe that Uncle can return the money to my family. After all, my mother worked hard to earn this money. If you don’t feel heartache for her, then I would.”

Wang Yunfa was unhappy when he heard this. However, before he could flare up, Jian Ai spoke again, “But you can exchange something for it.”

“Exchange?” Wang Yunfa frowned, not understanding what Jian Ai meant. “What do I exchange for it?”

The old lady also muttered. Wang Yunmei didn’t know what her daughter meant as well.

From the beginning to the end, Jian Ai was indifferent. From the moment she sat on the sofa, she had imperceptibly grasped the rhythm of this conversation and seized the initiative. The corners of her lips curled up as she looked at Wang Yunfa and said, “Didn’t Uncle have a house that Grandma left for you in South City? Use that house deed to exchange for money.”

Wang Yunfa initially had a puzzled expression on his face, but when he heard Jian Ai’s words, he immediately snorted. “How much can that lousy house be exchanged for?”

South City was the poorest district in Baiyun City, and the property prices were very low. The old lady left the bigger house to her elder son. The yard that Wang Yunfa received was very small, and it was worth only about thirty to forty thousand yuan.

What he needed for his wedding was a new house. Even if he bought one in Zhonglou District, a sixty square meter house would cost at least one hundred thousand yuan.

That was why he reacted like this when Jian Ai asked him to exchange the broken house deed for money. The actual value of the house didn’t match his current needs.

“Uncle’s house alone is not worth much, but doesn’t Elder Uncle have another one?” Jian Ai crossed her arms and leaned against the corner of the sofa.
