Chapter 310: I Do Not Need These Money
“This is a small sum of money. It is a gift for the baby. Please take it.”
Zuo Weiyi was a little surprised when she saw the gold card in Shen Lanzhi’s hand.
She glanced at Shen Lanzhi in shock. Zuo Weiyi naturally did not want this money and she did not need it at all.
“No, thank you.”
“Take it. This money is not for you. It is for the baby,” Shen Lanzhi said as she insisted on handing the gold card over to Zuo Weiyi.
However, Zuo Weiyi refused to accept the gold card no matter what it was.
Zuo Weiyi said, calmly, “I do not need the money. If you really want to give this money to the baby, then you should wait until the baby is born before you give it to the baby.”
Zuo Weiyi felt even more confused as she looked at the gold card in her hand.
She had a vague feeling that something was about to happen.
As she faced Zuo Weiyi’s rejection, Shen Lanzhi could only lower her eyes guiltily.
Wait until the baby was born?
If it was possible, she would also like that.
“I live in Country C throughout the year. I may not even be here when the baby is born. You should just accept this gold card. It is just a small token from his grandmother.”
Zuo Weiyi instantly raised her eyes as soon as she heard her last words.
Grandmother?
Did this mean that she was acknowledging her child?
Zuo Weiyi continued to refuse accepting the gold card in Shen Lanzhi’s hand.
Her relationship with Shi Yuting was already very complicated. She had a very different status compared to him, and she did not want to use money to measure their own relationship. Even if this was really Shen Lanzhi’s gesture for her own grandson, she did not want to accept the money at all.
This was because, even if she could not see how much money there was in the gold card, since it was in the form of a gold card and not cash, this could only mean that there was definitely a lot of money in the gold card. Therefore, Zuo Weiyi could not accept this gold card from her.
Especially not when Shi Yuting’s family had not even acknowledged her as a part of their family.
Even though she had already officially registered her marriage to Shi Yuting, she was still nothing but a lowly illegitimate daughter in the Shi family’s eyes.
Moreover, Zuo Weiyi felt that Shen Lanzhi’s actions were a little too abnormal.
Even if she lived in Country C throughout the year, couldn’t she visit Country Z once in a while? Since she already acknowledged that the baby in her belly as her grandson, then it would definitely be possible for her to come back occasionally, right? Why did she have to prepare clothes for the baby until the baby was three years old?
This made Zuo Weiyi feel very puzzled.
She had a strong feeling that something was about to happen.
Therefore, she knew that she must not accept this money.
“Auntie, please keep the money,” Zuo Weiyi insisted firmly.
Shen Lanzhi glanced at her and there was a flash of unbearable pain in her eyes.
“Weiyi, you are a good girl and I really do not hate you at all. If it is possible, I would also like for you to call me ‘Mom’.”
Zuo Weiyi looked at Shen Lanzhi because she was really a little shocked at what she had just said.
She was really acting very weird today.
“Just take the money. Perhaps… perhaps it will come to good use in future.” Shen Lanzhi forced the gold card into Zuo Weiyi’s hand before she stood up and said, “We were walking and shopping the whole afternoon. You must be tired. Have a good rest, and I will ask Nuannuan to call you when it is time for dinner.”
After that, Shen Lanzhi got up and walked out of the door immediately.
Zuo Weiyi was taken aback, and she could only stare blankly at the gold card in her hand. Before she could even say anything, Shen Lanzhi had already walked out of her bedroom as she gently closed the door behind her.
As Zuo Weiyi looked at the closed bedroom door, she had mixed feelings in her heart as she held the gold card tightly in her hand.
What was Shen Lanzhi trying to say? What did she mean by her actions?
Even though she was initially planning to take a nap, after looking at the gold card, Zuo Weiyi could not fall asleep at all.
At six o’clock in the evening, Shi Nuannuan came to Zuo Weiyi’s bedroom to ask her to come down for dinner.
During dinner, Shen Lanzhi did not speak a single word at all and simply ate her dinner quietly before she returned to her bedroom immediately.
