An An thought the child was completely hopeless. After a conversation between the two, An An leaned in front of Xu Chengcheng and whispered a few words. Xu Chengcheng was surprised, "Really agreed to let that cheap sister follow along?"

  An nodded and muttered, "It's better to have her under your nose than to have her stab you in the back." This was the truth. Xu Yingying was indeed that kind of person who would stab you in the back. If Xu Chengcheng wasn't at home, who knows what she would do to frame Xu Chengcheng and his mom outside.

  It's hard for stepmothers these days, and this is where Xu Chengcheng's mother feels most helpless.

  Xu Chengcheng responded with a "yes", "Alright, if she really does as you say, I'll agree! Who doesn't want to be a good person?"

  "Hmm! Don't be taken in by her."

  As expected! No sooner had Xu Chengcheng arrived home than he was summoned by Xu Weibing to the study. Inside, Xu Yingying was also present. Xu Weibing got straight to the point: "Chengcheng, Yingying is your sister. You two will be going to Shanghai together and can take care of each other. Why did you refuse your sister?" This was a rehashing of old business; previously, Xu Yingying had directly used Xu Weibing's consent as leverage to get Xu Chengcheng to agree to bring her along.

  Xu Chengcheng's brain was slow for a second, then she deliberately imitated An An's tone of voice, with a strange and mysterious tone, "Dad, who told you that I refused to let Xu Yingying go to Shanghai?"

  Xu Weibing was not here in the morning, but Xu Yingying had told him beforehand that he thought going to Shanghai was a small matter and agreed directly. When he heard Xu Chengcheng ask this way, his body stiffened and looked at Xu Yingying.

  Xu Yingying's small face turned pale, and she explained timidly, "Cheng Cheng, didn't you say so this afternoon?"

  Xu Chengcheng sneered, "What did I say? Xu Yingying, you'd better think about it, was I saying don't go or that there are no tickets?"

  Xu Yingying didn't know when her silly sister at home actually knew to dig a hole for her, she defended herself, "But you have two tickets!", the implication here also directly acknowledged that Xu Chengcheng was saying there were no tickets.

  Xu Cheng continued, "I'm sure I made it clear to you this morning that my uncle sent me two tickets, one of which is for my classmate. My classmate even paid me the money." After finishing speaking, she took out a big ticket from her pocket and waved it, "My classmate said he would go with me to Shanghai half a month ago, sorry, you're too late." Xu Cheng said this just to let Xu Wei Bing hear.

  Xu Weibing said slowly, "Not enough votes, just buy one directly."

  Xu Yingying's heart skipped a beat as she eagerly looked at Xu Chengcheng.

  Xu Chengcheng's face was expressionless, "All the expenses for me to go to Shanghai were reimbursed by my uncle. My classmate Anan's father had already given him the money in advance. As for Xu Yingying going, Dad! You have to take responsibility for all of Xu Yingying's expenses. I declare first, I'm also a poor student, after arriving in Shanghai, I won't be responsible for any of Xu Yingying's expenses."

  Xu Yingying's face became increasingly ugly as she listened, No money! Get out of here! Xu Chengcheng's uncle had bought a house in Shanghai several years ago and even opened a storefront specializing in clothing. The main reason she was so clingy this time was because of Xu Chengcheng's uncle.

  Xu Yingying is about to get married, and of course she needs to buy some new clothes for her wedding.

  Because of the last time Xu Yingying was caught in adultery and was driven back, Xu Weibing had to pay all the family property as compensation to the man's family, so now the Xu family is extremely poor, of course, this extreme poverty refers to Xu Weibing.

  Li Jingying had some money in her hands, but she and Xu Weibing's expenses had already been separated. Xu Weibing had thought of finding a way to get some money from Li Jingying, but Li Jingying was not willing to give in. Xu Yingying also tried various ways to persuade her, but Li Jingying remained unmoved.

  Xu Yingying had no choice but to turn to Xu Chengcheng's uncle, Li Jingyue. As it happened, Li Jingyue was in charge of a wholesale market in Shanghai, where the latest and most popular clothing styles from all over the country were available. If Xu Yingying could just make one trip to Shanghai, she would be able to find the perfect new clothes.

  An An didn't know why Xu Yingying insisted on following Xu Chengcheng to Shanghai, but she knew that Xu Yingying had a purpose and wouldn't give up until she achieved it.

  Xu Weibing is now himself with little money, Xu Chengcheng mentioned here, isn't it also a way to give Xu Yingying eye medicine? Xu Weibing's money was all lost because of Xu Yingying, and he compensated the family of Xu Yingying's previous husband. Now Xu Weibing is very obedient, but his own family is in the wrong, and he doesn't want to offend that family, so he can only pinch his nose and compensate them with money.

  As expected, thinking of this, Xu Weibing's face turned a few shades colder. "Yingying, you know our family's situation, we originally had some savings, but your ex-husband was extravagant and took it all away. To be honest, the reason why our family is in such a state is because of your own doing. This time, going to Shanghai will cost money, your father really can't afford it, you think of a way yourself!" After saying this, he paused for a moment, "You two go out, remember to close the study door."

  This is driving people away.

  Xu Yingying doesn't have any money. If she had money, she wouldn't be thinking of ways to go to Shanghai with Xu Chengcheng to take advantage of the situation.

  The two of them left the study room, and Xu Yinyin immediately dropped her act. Her face pale, she said "Cheng Cheng, you're really something!", directly cutting off her thoughts of going to Shanghai from the root. Did he think that would be enough to make her laugh? Ha ha!

  "You can't catch up with me." Xu Chengcheng didn't hide her disgust for Xu Yingying at all, she rolled her eyes and said, "Who would have thought that our family's eldest miss would be caught in the act and sent back home? This is a first." Looking at Xu Yingying's face which was pale and blotchy, it had to be said that Xu Yingying wasn't having a good time. Xu Chengcheng felt even more comfortable with herself. She hummed a little tune, feeling even more convinced that Ahn-ah's method was good.

  Finally don't have to hear this buzzing mosquito sound anymore.

  Take care of your family!

  The whole family sat at the table to eat, because every member of the family was busy with their summer vacation, only Anan was idle, so she took charge of cooking at home.

  They have a big family, so An'an made a stewed taro with chicken, stir-fried small bok choy, and a cold mixed small cucumber. She took the cucumber to the well in Langye's house to chill for an hour, then brought it back and tapped it with a knife, adding garlic sprouts and chili peppers as seasonings. The moment she took a bite, it was both cool and crispy. All three dishes were generous in portion, but the cold mixed small cucumber was the most popular.

  It's really too hot today, everyone is sweating when they get home, and it's hard to eat hot dishes and meat dishes. That cold salad with small cucumbers has become an appetizer.

  An'an ate for a while before speaking up, "Dad, Mom, this afternoon Xu Chengcheng came to our house and gave me a ticket to Shanghai. Taking advantage of the summer vacation, I want to go play in Shanghai with Chengcheng for a few days."
