The Little Ancestor Teaches You How To Live-Chapter 1031: Just Afraid They Have Ulterior Motives

"Cough cough, Mom, although it’s true that big brother’s EQ isn’t high, can we change the subject?"

"Fine, since you insist on asking, there’s no harm in telling you. Your third uncle and third aunt have always been troublemakers; they met through an early love affair in high school. Back then, your third uncle used to get into fights, and for some reason, your third aunt got involved too. The worst time, they even ended up in the police station."

Qin Yuze’s eyes widened—why did this story sound so familiar?

It seemed like his past self was like this, except he hadn’t had an early romance or a girlfriend.

Wang Qing continued, "So now that they’ve come back causing such a commotion, I don’t really trust them. I even suspect they have an ulterior motive, perhaps eyeing Grandma and Grandpa’s wealth."

To this day, Wang Qing still didn’t believe that Qin Yunzhi and Yan Minmin had made their fortune and returned.

"But, Mom, aren’t those things from the past? Look, I’ve changed for the better too. Uncle and aunt might have also turned over a new leaf."

"If they were really doing well, why didn’t they show up for twenty years? No matter how busy work is, they should have come back for a visit during the holidays, right? The more they act filial since they’ve been back, the more I doubt their true intentions. Truly filial people would never ignore their parents for twenty years."

"That... " Qin Yuze didn’t know how to argue, because his mother had a point.

It was indeed strange that his uncle and aunt had vanished for twenty years.

"First they provoke me, then they try to cozy up to your little aunt, and they play the filial card in front of your grandparents. I have plenty of reason to suspect their intentions aren’t good. Your little aunt is young and naive; they’ve managed to win her over to their side already. How could I not worry?"

"Mom, even if what you’re saying is true, you shouldn’t worry too much. You’re pregnant with our little brother, and all this stress is bad for you and the baby," Qin Yuze said.

Although a brother wasn’t as adorable as a sister, he was still his sibling, and as the older brother, he had a duty to watch over his well-being.

"You kids don’t understand these things. If I don’t worry, who will?" Wang Qing didn’t believe the men in the family were as perceptive as she was.

If she didn’t pay attention, the house could be swindled from under them, and the rest would still help count the money.

"But Mom..."

Qin Yuze wanted to say more, but Wang Qing cut him off, "Don’t worry about it, I have my own plans."

Qin Yuze pondered for a while, realizing he couldn’t persuade his mother at the moment, so he let it go.

Qin Yunzhi and Yan Minmin kept their word and came to find Susu the next day, bringing along a property deed and a chest of gold.

When the elder Mr. and Mrs. Qin came downstairs, they saw two large wooden chests filled with gold set out in the living room.

Mrs. Qin quipped, "Are you here to test the strength of my floorboards?"

It seemed that with the way they were buying things, little darling’s room might have to be moved downstairs in the future; if all the gold was piled up in the room, it would be an enormous test for the quality of the second floor’s floorboards to withstand without becoming overloaded.

Yan Minmin said with a smile, "It’s not often we find something our little sister likes, so we bought her a bit extra."

"Humph, haven’t even learned how to be a good daughter-in-law yet, but starting to play the role of a good sister-in-law?" Mrs. Qin teased.
