Huayu 1999: Starting with nothing but getting something for nothing

Fan Bingbing followed her boyfriend to his bedroom. There were many paintings on the walls, including oil paintings, meticulous paintings, and traditional Chinese paintings. She didn't understand them, but she thought they were beautiful. It seemed that there were some in the living room as well, but she hadn't paid attention to them before.

"You sit down, I'll go and lay my cards on the table first."

Fan Bingbing grabbed him: "What do you mean?"

"To be honest, you two are acting like you're dying, and we can't get rid of you no matter what we do..."

"Hmm~ If that's what you're saying, I'll jump out the window right now, face down."

"Just kidding, don't worry, my parents are great."

Fan Bingbing nodded; she could sense that.

Yang Che left the room and headed towards his place of judgment.

As soon as they approached, the mother impatiently asked in a low voice, "What's going on? Wasn't it supposed to be a girl named Gao Yuanyuan?"

Yang Che looked at his parents and sighed, "It's all the same."

"you!"

"Yang Che!"

Yang Yuanchao and Wang Weiqing's hands were trembling. They never hit their son, but at this moment they really wanted to hold him down and beat him, but they didn't know how or where to hit him. They could only pant and glare fiercely at their proud son.

"Don't worry, they know each other. I know this is illogical, but it's come to this."

Wang Weiqing grabbed her husband's hand immediately, and her heart started pounding.

"What did you say? They know?"

Yang Che nodded and said very seriously, "Don't think that they're after my money. They were much richer than me when they met me. We just got to know each other and ended up together. Nobody wronged anyone."

Don't make me choose between them. If I could, I would have chosen them already. They're both good girls, devoted to me, and I like them too. The three of us have gone through a lot of pain and struggle, but now we've finally accepted each other and can help each other in our careers. It's great, so you don't need to worry.

The parents remained silent for a long time, unable to understand and deeply shocked.

"That..."

Yang Yuanchao opened his mouth, but ultimately didn't know what to say.

Wang Weiqing's face turned deathly pale: "You...you all live together?"

Yang Che quickly shook his head: "No, we each live in our own places."

The parents both breathed a sigh of relief.

After a few seconds of silence, Yang Yuanchao asked, "Yang Che, what do you want your mother and I to do?"

"Just treat them normally, don't feel the need to compensate them, and definitely don't look down on them..."

"What are you saying? What right do we have to look down on others? If I looked down on you, and you weren't my son, I... I would beat you to death, I would call the police and have you arrested and charged with indecent assault. Waaah, what sins have I committed to have such a son?"

Wang Weiqing became more and more emotional as he spoke, and then he burst into tears.

"Oh my god."

"stand up."

Yang Yuanchao got angry and slapped his son's hand away, not letting him touch his wife.

Just then, the bedroom door opened, and Little Fatty, with tears welling up in his eyes, ran over and squatted down at Wang Weiqing's feet, his face stubborn: "Auntie, I stubbornly insisted on following him. I can't live without him. Gao Yuanyuan and I get along very well. We care about each other. The gifts I brought for you two this time were things we discussed and bought in Hong Kong."

Wang Weiqing immediately stopped crying; the victim himself had come out and said so.

"This...I'm sorry to have troubled you."

"Bingbing, your aunt and I want to apologize to you. We didn't raise you well..."

"No, no, it's me who's causing you trouble."

Yang Che nodded: "Yes, it's all Fan Zeping's fault."

The parents glared at each other instantly.

Yang Che chuckled twice.

Afterwards, the parents made a series of strong demands, requiring Yang Che to take good care of Xiao Pang, not to let Xiao Pang down, to consider Xiao Pang's reputation, etc., but they didn't say anything about breaking up, or even that they couldn't get along and should part amicably, probably because they felt that saying such things was unlucky.

After his parents muttered something to each other for a while, Old Yang went out.

Yang Che took the initiative to ask about Wang Weiqing's electronics store.

"That's great. I've also taken over the shop next door and plan to connect them. I'm also going to open a branch near Shengli Bridge, and I'll have your Aunt Liu manage it."

"Doesn't she work in the clothing industry?"

"I quit a long time ago, I got divorced... This guy, once he makes a little money, his mind wanders off somewhere else. Qian Bin got into gambling and won. You tell me, such a good person, now he's not even human anymore."

Yang Che laughed and said, "You earn more than those two, don't you?"

Wang Weiqing rolled her eyes at her son: "Your mother is someone who has seen it all. Do you think your old Yang family is like that? Going back eight generations, we were all poor peasants."

"Yes, yes, you're the young lady of a red capitalist family. Mom, it's fine to be kind, but don't knowingly cause trouble and still try to be kind, then..."

"Bingbing, look at Yang Che, even his mother is starting to lecture him."

Fan Bingbing smiled and said, "Auntie, I'm used to it. He's so good at teaching me. Brother, Auntie has run this shop from scratch. She's seen everything."

Wang Weiqing smiled happily, and then talked about the 20 yuan worth of BBK goods that his son had obtained. Some were sold retail and a lot were sold in bulk. Now there are less than 50 units left, and the money received is 27.5 yuan.

"I'll transfer 20 to you next week."

"Okay. Mom, you're amazing. I thought you'd just stick to retail."

Fan Bingbing was both surprised and moved as he listened to the mother and son talk about transferring money so naturally.

Wang Weiqing said smugly, "Do you think your mother is stupid? More than two thousand units, it would take me forever to sell them at retail. Technology is developing rapidly, there are new products almost every day. Let them compete by selling repeaters, I'll stock up on new products, electronic dictionaries, VCDs, anything new. Son, you're always out and about, so tell your mother about any new things you find."

Yang Che gave his mother a thumbs up, feeling both shocked and moved. In another timeline, his mother did odd jobs and eventually opened a convenience store. She never wanted to be idle. Even after Yang Che became quite wealthy, his mother still had to work, though she didn't achieve anything significant.

"Okay, but you and Dad can also go out for a trip from time to time, traveling and doing research at the same time. Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Hong Kong, and even going abroad when necessary. Anyway, you don't need to save money for me to get married, and you have the government to support you in your old age."

Fan Bingbing looked at Aunt Wang with even greater admiration, thinking that she wished Aunt Wang were her own mother.

As they were talking, Mom's braised pork noodles were served, and Dad Yang Yuanchao also came home with several bags and boxes containing raw dumplings and stir-fries, including Yellow River carp, crispy chicken, and twice-cooked pork.

It would be inappropriate not to serve dumplings when my son's girlfriend is visiting for the first time.
