Call Me The Mother of Quick Transmigration

Chapter 30 – My Son is a Phoenix Man (part 10)

Jiang Shan frowned. Only Wei Ding Shan had the right to fire Mei Li directly. He thought that Wei Ding Shan had gone too far. He and Mei Li had broken up, so there was no need to go to such lengths!

Mei Li noticed Jiang Shan shaking slightly, so she cried more pitifully. “Jiang Shan, I really didn’t lie to you. My parents are looking for me everywhere. I can’t go back. I can’t let them find me, otherwise they will really sell me off for betrothal money for my brother. I don’t want to be like my sisters, so I can only avoid them. Jiang Shan, please help me. In order to get this job, I gave up everything. My rent is almost up. I have nothing now. Help me! Help me!” Mei Li stopped crying and was just extremely pitiful.

Jiang Shan’s heart softened. Although Mei Li lied to him, it was excusable. Besides, they used to be in love. He was perfectly happy with his family now. If Mei Li was also happy, then maybe they can live well. But, Mei Li wasn’t doing well now. 

Jiang Shan felt that he should help Mei Li.

“Stand up first, then I can help you,” said Jiang Shan.

Mei Li immediately looked at Jiang Shan with hope in her eyes.

Jiang Shan thought about it silently. He had about 70000 to 80000 in the bank and a monthly salary of 15000. But, he didn’t have a lot of free cash. Firstly, he was responsible for his household. Even if the house belonged to the Wei family, he still had to do his part. If the Wei family had to pay for household expenses, then he would be too useless. Secondly, he promised his mother that he would help her buy a house with his own money. He couldn’t break this promise or let her down. Third, Yue Er was pregnant and there were now 2 more aunties. Although mother-in-law said she would pay for the aunties’ salary, he couldn’t let her. There were also the upcoming costs of nutrition for Yue Er and the baby, milk powder, diapers, and more. It was very expensive.

Jiang Shan thought about it for a while. “I’ll give you five thousand yuan first to pay rent. Then, you can find a job. If that isn’t enough money, let me know.”

Mei Li was a little disappointed. Is this what he meant by help? But, Mei Li knew she could not be impatient. She could only catch the big fish by putting out a long line. She deliberately lowered her head and wiped away her tears. “No need. It was just a moment of anxiety. Don’t take it to heart. I know it isn’t easy for you. Your wife is pregnant now, so let’s not meet again, lest your wife finds out and treats you badly.”

Jiang Shan’s frown deepened.

“Tch, if you are so sensible and know that meeting my son isn’t good, then you shouldn’t have come to the Wei family!” Li Su walked out from behind the corner.

“Mum! Why are you here?” Jiang Shan asked, surprised.

“Go. I’ll deal with you later!” Li Su gave Jiang Shan a fierce look. She then walked over to Mei Li and looked her up and down. She sneered, then slapped Mei Li.

Mei Li was caught off guard. She was shocked and angry, and covered her face. Her eyes widened. “Are you crazy?!” Why was this old witch so strong?

Jiang Shan was also shocked by Li Su’s sudden action. However, after he heard Mei Li’s words, he felt disgusted. “Mei Li, watch your words!”

Mei Li was secretly annoyed. How could she fail again? Damn, why was it that every time she saw this old witch, she couldn’t help it? She knew how much Jiang Shan valued his mother! She didn’t know if she had somehow offended this old witch. Every time they met, it was never good! It was really strange!

Li Su grabbed Jiang Shan’s hand. “Mei Li, let me tell you, no matter what kind of relationship you had with my son before, you chose to leave my son for money. This is the uncomfortable truth! My son is now married and Yue Er is my daughter-in-law and the mother of my grandchild! They are now happy with a full life. I hope you can have some self-respect. Don’t come back and cause problems with my son, otherwise I will make you pay the price!”

Mei Li was pale. This old monster said some worrisome things. “Is it because I have no money so you won’t look at me and you go for Wei Yue Er instead?”

“Look at this filthy person. Even inside she is filthy. The Wei family has money, but what is their relationship with me? I can now spend money, but it has all been earned by my son. Do you think that you are any good? You tossed him aside for the sake of money! Let me tell you that my son’s money is for his family and for buying me a house. You won’t get a penny from my son!” said Li Su. “Mei Li, don’t you dare bother my son. If you dare to cause him problems, don’t believe that I won’t go and tell your parents that you have a lot of money. What do you think they will do?”

“You are not a person, you are a demon!” Mei Li was angry. She didn’t understand why this old woman didn’t like her. They had the same background and same life experiences. She had a warm personality and she would take care of Jiang Shan and be very filial. Compared to that spoiled and arrogant Wei Yue Er, was she not better?! Why did that old witch defend that damn Wei Yue Er and why did Li Su not like her?!

Mei Li removed her hands from her face and instead waved them around.

“Mei Li! Apologise to my mother!” Jiang Shan said angrily. He did not allow anyone to blame his mother. Mei Li was a gentle person before, so how was she so different now? He was so disappointed!

“You’ll bring harm to my son! I’ll tell you what I got from your words! You say you don’t want to bother my son, but you seek him out and continue to harass him! My son is married! He has a wife and child. Don’t you have any shame? What did you learn from your four years at university? How to seduce men? How to find a man? Bah, so shameless!”

Mei Li was inconsolable. “You! You!”

“Me? What about me? To tell you the truth, it was I who went to find my in-laws to get you fired. You are trying to seduce my son. I will never tolerate a woman with hidden intentions be in the company near my son and daughter-in-law! If I see you near my son again in the future, I’ll hit you again! I’ll make you pay with your life! Why are you still here? Do you want me to deal with you?” Li Su had her hands on her hips, angry.

Mei Li looked at their faces and saw dislike on Jiang Shan’s face. She could not help but get angry and turned to leave the stairs.

“Mum, don’t be angry!” Jiang Shan watched Mei Li leave, but he was busy holding Li Su’s hand.

“You’re telling me not to be angry? How can I not be angry?! You should be kneeling! How can I raise a son like this?! No matter what happened between you and her, you have already broken up with her. You are married now and your wife is pregnant with your child, but you want to hook up with other women. What are you doing? Does your child mean nothing? How did I raise you?!” Li Su said while hitting Jiang Shan a few times.

Jiang Shan saw that Li Su was really angry, but he was in pain. How strong was his mother? But, he didn’t dare to run away. “Mum, I am sorry. I am wrong. I shouldn’t anger you and I shouldn’t meet Mei Li. I am wrong! You don’t have to be angry.”

Li Su listened to him. “You shouldn’t be apologising to me. You should be apologising to Yue Er! Son, you are a man. Yue Er is your wife. You are the child’s father. You have responsibilities that you can’t walk away from!”

Jiang Shan nodded. “Mum, I know. I will promise you that I will never meet Mei Li in the future.”

Li Su sighed. “Not just Mei Li. There is also Zhang Li, Li Li, and Wang Li. There are a lot of women like Mei Li!”

“Mum!”

“Son, you know why mum is saying this again. I have already warned you. After you get married, you can’t have affairs. Did you know? Not long after your grandmother and grandfather married, your grandfather had a mistress who dropped by and hounded your grandmother to death. You don’t know how much your uncle and I endured. Fortunately, your grandfather and that wild woman died early. Later, I went to university. Your aunt thought I was a burden and let me get married, letting me choose who. I selected your dad. Why? Your dad was honest and wasn’t likely to run wild. Son, I don’t want you to learn from your grandfather who ruined a good home.” Li Su used her lifelong acting skills to have tears stream down.

“Mum!” Jiang Shan panicked. This was the first time he saw Li Su cry. His mother had always been a strong person. Even when his father died, his mother didn’t cry. She only didn’t sleep for a few nights. Mother spent so many years raising him by herself. He had never seen her so vulnerable! It wasn’t good to make his mother sad.

“Mum, I am wrong. I will promise you that I will not be with other women. I won’t cheat and I won’t do anything to harm Yue Er and the child! I promise you! Mum, don’t cry!” Jiang Shan said, panicked.

“Good child, mum believes you. Get up! You have been mother’s pride. Mum believes you! Don’t cry or I’ll worry!” Li Su wiped his tears with her sleeve while Jiang Shan took out a tissue for Li Su.

Mother and son wiped away each other’s tears and smiled.

For the first time, Li Su thought, damn it!

This small event passed and neither of them took it to heart. Jiang Shan was now more considerate to Wei Yue Er.

Li Su and Mother Wei became obsessed with shopping at various stores for mothers and children. They wanted to decorate the baby room and shop for baby products. When they saw items they liked, they would call Wei Yue Er and ask her for her opinion. Wei Yue Er had no intention of going to work and often took time off to go shopping with her 2 mothers.
