Gong Ruini and Zhao Xuran took a stroll along the beach, and just as they returned to their doorstep, they were startled by the luggage at the entrance.

"Uncle, what’s this?"

Gong Zhuang’s eyes lit up upon seeing Zhao Xuran and he waved him over, signaling him to help with the luggage.

"New Year goods, specially prepared a lot of preserved meats. You know, we paid quite a bit for overweight fees for these," Gong Zhuang said, unwillingly.

The two elders of the Miao Family were standing nearby, also unwilling, "We had no idea there was a weight limit for luggage on the plane."

"If we had known it would cost so much, we’d rather let the eldest take them back."

"Exactly, exactly."

The two elders of the Miao Family had traveled to many places by train over the years, thanks to their daughter and son-in-law.

For them, traveling meant not having meals that suit their taste, so they often carried convenient and easy-to-store items.

This time, even though Gong Zhuang explained to them repeatedly before coming to Hainan, they still brought a lot of stuff, thinking train travel was the same as flying.

"Dad, it’s okay. We all love eating them, my brother does too." Gong Zhuang didn’t want his in-laws to feel unhappy over such a small expense.

It’s not like we can’t afford it; since it’s paid already, there’s no need for regret.

Miao Cuihua initially felt reluctant, but thinking about how Gong Tao’s entire family loves it, she didn’t mind, "Exactly, Dad, Mom, it’s okay, we all like your preserved meats."

The two elders of the Miao Family truly didn’t want their son-in-law to feel uncomfortable and upset, so hearing them say it’s okay repeatedly, they let it go.

Zhuge Zhi and the others heard voices and came out to greet them, "Old Miao, come, Mahjong."

"Sure." Due to Gong Jiaming and his sibling studying in Beijing, Miao Dashan and his wife would visit them each year.

Over time, they became familiar with Zhuge Zhi and the others. Despite Miao Dashan’s lack of education, growing up helping his family in street markets with pig slaughter gave him a quick tongue.

And knowing Zhuge Zhi and the others’ status, of course, he paid attention. Besides, his straightforwardness kept good relations with Zhuge Zhi and the others.

Especially given Miao Dashan plays a good game of chess, which further endeared him to Zhuge Zhi and the others, though they favored Mahjong the most.

Shen Xiang watched her husband eagerly follow Zhuge Zhi, and was annoyed, "Look at your Dad, as soon as there’s Mahjong to play, he runs off so quickly."

"Dad only has this hobby." Miao Cuihua didn’t mind her father going out to play Mahjong, especially with Zhuge Zhi and the others.

After all, her father was helping her family get closer to Zhuge Zhi and the others.

Shen Xiang understood her husband’s intentions, but she couldn’t bear that he didn’t rest after sitting on the plane for so long before heading off to Mahjong, wondering if his body could handle it.

"Hello, Aunt Shen." Cai Ming heard the commotion and came out of the house to greet Shen Xiang before helping with the luggage.

Seeing Cai Ming, Shen Xiang remembered something, "Cai Ming, we heard while leaving that your parents took your brother and sister-in-law and went to Beijing."

Ah, no way, Gong Ruini was startled, recalling how before the Wei Family had troubles, there were talks of the Wei Family intending to bring Cai Guoqing to Beijing to cause chaos.

Luckily, the Wei Family had internal conflicts, and later had many issues, so they couldn’t focus on this matter. But why now, going to Beijing seems odd.

Do they even know where Cai Ming lives?

Actually, Gong Ruini wanted to say, "Do they even have money?" Gong Ruzhi asked unceremoniously.

Gong Ruzhi didn’t have much memory of the Cai Family, but he remembered they were truly poor, even unable to afford meat during New Year’s.

Having grown up, Gong Ruzhi had never seen such a poor family, especially realizing they were his mother’s relatives.

Oh no, could it be someone stirring up trouble within? Gong Ruini suddenly thought of Gong Zheng; it seemed after returning, he gained no benefits.

Moreover, it appeared Mo Litong, Gong Zheng’s second wife, was advised to go home after shortly starting work, and it seemed the couple had a big quarrel.

Could it be that Gong Zheng, trying to gain more advantages, thought of seeking out the Cai Family?

Gong Zheng is Gong Tao’s brother, and after their parents passed away, this brother had no standing to dictate Gong Tao’s actions.

But the Cai Family elders are different; accusing Cai Ming and Sister Mei Na of being unfilial could still stir trouble and cause distress.

Cai Ming was happily helping with the luggage when he suddenly heard that Cai Guoqing took his parents and children to Beijing.

His first reaction was, "What now, how do they have money?"

What business do they have in Beijing without money? Even if they can afford train tickets, how will they manage food and drink on arrival?

Cai Ming truly didn’t understand their thinking, how they couldn’t consider how they’d live after arriving in Beijing.

Considering life in Beijing, Gong Ruini realized her uncle stubbornly refused to face reality, "With sons and daughters, how could they not have a place to stay."

"Maybe they’ll even live comfortably." Gong Ruini thought worriedly.

No matter how it was planned initially, once the Cai Family elders arrived at their home, three generations of them are unquestioningly unreasonable.

What a headache, Gong Ruini suddenly realized not only would Cai Ming be distressed, but her family would also feel uncomfortable.

What to do, would it escalate into a world war?

Gong Tao was discussing with Gong Zhuang about their New Year plans and talking of going out to sea the next day.

In short, upon receiving news of his brother’s impending arrival, Gong Tao got busy, determined to ensure Gong Zhuang’s family had a comfortable and fulfilling time.

But now Gong Tao couldn’t focus on these things, and he was genuinely stressed, recalling past grievances from his in-laws.

"Who is it, who brought them to Beijing?" If no one was stirring the pot behind the scenes, would such a poor family head to Beijing?

No, a plan must be devised. Gong Tao genuinely didn’t want to face these living vampires.

"Don’t let them in." Humph, even knowing where they live, it doesn’t matter, disallow entry and see what they do.

Gong Tao didn’t believe that a family burdened with children would have money, and even if they did, would they willingly stay in a hotel or dine out?

Additionally, if possible, he wanted to see who the Cai Family was meeting with.

"This time, we won’t let her off." Although unsure if it’s related to Cao Li, he suspected her the most.

Gong Ruini also believed that Cao Li played a substantial role; even if she wasn’t the instigator, who else would orchestrate such chaos?

Cai Ming was furious, planning to speed up previous actions once back, ensuring Cao Li wouldn’t keep appearing before them; it genuinely made him sick.
