Chapter 90 - 42: Zitan Villa, a 10 Million Red Envelope
Jing Shiyun wasn’t intentionally blaming Jiang Li; she mainly wanted to see what Jiang Manshu’s attitude would be.
If Jiang Manshu gave her a hard time, then no matter how much Jiang Li loved Shen Yanzhi, she would advise the two of them to divorce.
She never would have expected Jiang Manshu to have this kind of attitude.
"Manman, look at you... why spoil her like this? What will you do if she gets spoiled rotten?"
Jiang Manshu said nonchalantly, "If she gets spoiled, she gets spoiled. For the first twenty-some years, Xiao Li was the apple of your eye. In the future, she’ll be the apple of our Shen Family’s eye. Who else would we spoil but her?"
Afraid that Zhou Jiawen might take it the wrong way, she quickly added, "Of course, Xiao Wen is the apple of our Shen Family’s eye too."
Zhou Jiawen grinned at Jing Shiyun and said, "Auntie, don’t you worry. My mom is a woman of her word!"
She hooked her arm through Jiang Li’s. "Ever since Shen Yuchu and I got married, Mom has always treated me like her own daughter. I always get the best of everything."
"Forget sleeping in till noon, Mom wouldn’t even say anything if I stayed out all night."
And a lot of the time, Jiang Manshu even asked her to take her out to have fun, just like they were friends.
"Now that my sister-in-law has married into the family, she’ll get the same treatment."
Jing Shiyun nodded in satisfaction. Before, she had been worried about problems between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, or between the sisters-in-law.
Now it seemed she had been overthinking things.
She teased, "The way you all are talking, it makes me sound like I’m not her real mother."
Jiang Li pouted. "What are you talking about?"
Just then, her stomach let out a loud RUMBLE. Jiang Li couldn’t help but look down and pat her belly, asking, "Have you guys eaten breakfast yet?"
Jing Shiyun snorted. "Weren’t we waiting for you to get up so we could eat together?"
Jiang Li chuckled. "Then what are we waiting for? Let’s hurry to the dining room for breakfast!"
Everyone had been drinking last night, so they’d had Liu Bo reschedule for this morning.
And sure enough, right after they finished breakfast, they heard Xie Wan report, "There’s a man at the door, who says his surname is Liu, asking to see you."
Jiang Li nodded. "Let him in."
A few minutes after Xie Wan relayed the order, Liu Bo appeared in the main hall, carrying a briefcase.
He called out sweetly to Jiang Li, "Miss Jiang."
Jiang Li held out her hand. "The contracts, please."
Liu Bo immediately took all the contracts out of his briefcase. "These are the contracts for the Zitan Villa properties. There are five sets in total."
Jiang Li gave them a casual glance, and after confirming the amounts and personal information were correct, she had Shen Yanzhi, Jiang Bowen, Shen Yugang, and Shen Yuchu sign their names respectively.

’After that whole operation, not only did I get back the money for the houses, but my bank balance is skyrocketing.’
’But I think I’ve noticed a pattern. It seems the closer I am to the person, the higher the cash-back multiplier.’
’Looks like I should buy more things for Shen Yanzhi and Jiang Bowen in the future. Of course, I can pick up a little something for Shen Yugang and Shen Yuchu along the way.’
Once the contracts were signed, the bills paid, and Liu Bo had left, Jiang Li asked, "So, are we moving today?"
’Now that we’ve bought all these villas, we can’t just let them sit empty, can we?’
Jing Shiyun frowned almost imperceptibly. "Then what about this place?"
"A villa this big can’t just be abandoned."
Jiang Li shrugged, stating the obvious, "That’s easy. We’ll live there for half a month, and here for half a month."
’After all, I put so much effort into decorating this place. I can’t bear to just give it up.’
Jiang Bowen said cheerfully, "I think Xiao Li has a point. When we get tired of the villas, we can always come back to our old home for a bit."
Shen Yugang nodded in agreement. "Our in-law has a point!"
Jiang Manshu let out a breath. "Fine. Since you’ve all said so, let’s move today."
However, what Jiang Li meant by "moving" was stocking the new houses with goods from the mall.
’Since we’re going to spend half a month at each place, there’s no need to move things from here. Moving stuff back and forth is exhausting.’
’When there’s an opportunity to spend money for Shen Yanzhi, why would she waste it?’
