Chapter 52: Are you going to rob?

  "Mom, I'm back! Hmm? Where's Dad? Gone to play chess again? And little brother hasn't come back yet?" As soon as he returned home, He Dong suddenly became like a child, his voice carrying a hint of spoiledness.

  "You little stinker, you......!" Meng Jing saw her son return and a smile immediately appeared on her face, but soon her gaze was attracted to Zhao Xinxin who followed behind He Dong.

  "Auntie!" Seeing Meng Jing look at her, Zhao Xinxin immediately called out sweetly.

  "Great! Great!" Meng Jing looked at the girl in front of her, with a joyful expression on her face.

  Meng Jing had always had a regret, that was not having a daughter. So very early on, she looked forward to the day when her son would marry his wife. However, her eldest son had yet to graduate from university and her youngest son was only about to enter high school year three, which made her suppress this wish in her heart.

  Today, she suddenly saw her son bring back such a beautiful girl, and the thread of obsession that had been hidden in her heart was instantly tempted out. At this time, she directly held Zhao Xinxin's hand, and even He Dong was no longer noticed.

  Of course, she didn't know that her son had a girlfriend before, because He Dong hadn't told her at the time. Actually, He Dong had also thought of bringing his ex-girlfriend home, but back then his ex-girlfriend always made excuses not to come. It wasn't until they broke up that He Dong realized his ex-girlfriend had other ideas at the time.

  "This girl is really pretty!" Zhao Xinxin was originally very sweet and lovely, Meng Jing liked her more and more as she looked at her. As she looked, she suddenly said "Son, I heard that it's also possible to get married during school now! When are you two getting married?"

  "Ah!" Meng Jing's sudden exclamation made He Dong and Zhao Xinxin both stunned at the same time, and Zhao Xinxin's face was instantly filled with blushes.

  "Mom, what are you talking about! Xinxin is my good friend, she came over today to help me." He Dong felt like his head was going to explode at this moment.

  "Is your name Xinxin? What a nice name!" Meng Jing didn't pay attention to He Dong's implication and directly looked at Zhao Xinxin.

  "Auntie! I'm Zhao Xinxin!" Zhao Xinxin's voice was much softer, and also became more gentle. If you only listened to the sound without looking at her, you would absolutely think that Zhao Xinxin is a kind of gentle lady type person. Actually, He Dong knew that this Zhao Xinxin was absolutely a versatile witch.

  "Xin Xin, from now on if this kid dares to bully you, just tell me and I'll deal with him!" Meng Jing spoke to Zhao Xin Xin with a tone and attitude that was exactly like a mother-in-law talking to her daughter-in-law.

  "Mother!" He Dong shouted again with a deep sense of resentment.

  "What are you yelling about? Can't you see I'm helping you find a wife here?" Meng Jing directly and fiercely shouted back at He Dong.

  "Auntie! Master and I really have nothing to do with each other! He has a girlfriend." Zhao Xinxin saw that things had developed to this extent, and if she didn't explain the misunderstanding now, it would only deepen. So she hastily said, but after speaking, Zhao Xinxin didn't know why, but her heart suddenly felt a sour feeling.

  "Master... Master?" Zhao Xinxin's address made Meng Jing extremely surprised.

  "This...! Xinxin is one of my junior sisters, she followed me to intern at the pet hospital, I taught her a thing or two, and she's been calling me Master ever since!" He Dong started bragging directly.

  "It turned out to be like this!" Meng Jing looked at Zhao Xinxin with some regret, but suddenly she seemed to remember something. After talking, her eyes suddenly lit up in front of He Dong and asked, "Earlier, Xinxin said you have a girlfriend now, is that true?"

  "Yes! Her name is Lin Xuan, her family lives in the capital. Now that we're on vacation, she's already gone back home. After school starts again, I'll definitely bring her to pay respects to you!" He Dong said very generously.

  "What a morning greeting! You're so rude!" Knowing that He Dong really had a girlfriend, Meng Jing's face suddenly bloomed with joy.

  "You are our family's old Buddha, how can she not come to worship you!" He Dong said with a smile.

  "Fart, you stinky little brat, am I so overbearing?" However, He Dong's flattery directly hit the horse's leg, provoking Meng Jing.

  "Hehe!" The bickering between He Dong and Meng Jing couldn't help but make Zhao Xinxin laugh, at the same time also making the orphaned her feel a kind of warmth she hadn't experienced in a long time.

  "Mom, this is a gift for you!" He Dong didn't dare to let Meng Jing continue, who knows what kind of shocking words the fierce mom would burst out.

  "How come you're buying gifts again? Although you've earned some money now, you can't spend it recklessly. You still need to save up for a house and getting married!" Meng Jing didn't even look at the gift He Dong gave her, and directly started lecturing him.

  "Mom, don't you want to see what gift I've prepared for you?" He Dong's face was full of tears and laughter, but in order to stop Meng Jing from continuing, he hastily coaxed.

  "What gift?" Meng Jing's attention was indeed diverted by He Dong, especially when Meng Jing opened the box handed to him by He Dong and was instantly stunned.

  Because it was for his own mother, He Dong was very generous and directly prepared a complete set of jade jewelry, including bangles, necklaces, earrings, rings, brooches, and so on.

  Although Meng Jing's educational background is not high, and he comes from a rural area, nowadays the information is so developed, on TV, in movies, in newspapers, in magazines, especially on the internet, all kinds of information are available. Meng Jing, who usually loves watching TV, certainly knows how valuable these jade stones are.

  "Mom, do you like it?" He Dong couldn't help but laugh at Meng Jing's stunned expression.

  "Son... son! Have you gone to rob?" Meng Jing did not have the joy that He Dong imagined, but instead her voice trembled, and she looked at He Dong with a terrified expression.

  "What's wrong! Where did I go rob?" He Dong said discontentedly.

  "Where did these things come from? Don't try to deceive your old mother by saying they're fake. Although your old mother isn't very educated, I did watch that 'Crazy Stone' movie a while back, and I can still tell what's real or not!" Meng Jing said very seriously.

  "Hehe, mom, sit down. I have something to tell you!" He Dong pulled Meng Jing onto the sofa and began telling her about his trip to gamble on jade stones, how he had good luck and made a big profit, and finally pointed at the jade accessories saying "These are the jade pieces that I gambled for and had crafted into these accessories!"

  "This......this......this......!" He Dong said something that shocked Meng Jing so much, her mouth was open for half a day, and she couldn't say another word.

  "Mom, there's one more thing I want to tell you. With the money I earned from gambling on stones, I bought a villa in Ping'an Huayuan community on Huayuan Street, and I'd like to move you all over to live together!" He Dong said everything he wanted to say while Meng Jing was still in shock.
