Chapter 158 The stipends we haven't received over the years must be returned.

The soft sunlight shone on Li Qingqing, who held a rattle drum in her hand, which made a crisp sound. She hadn't been in the capital for long, but Tuantuan had already gained more than two pounds, and her face was chubby, like a little meatball that had just come out of the pot.

Shu Ying couldn't help but laugh out loud. Looking at the mother and son who seemed so content, she pushed open the door and walked in from outside.

"I thought you went to the hospital again. I didn't expect you to be hiding here and living a comfortable life. By the way, have you received any money from Duan Huaichuan that he sent home during the year you haven't been in contact with him?"

This was something Shu Ying had just thought of. It's said that a man's heart is where his money is. While that's not entirely true, having money in your hands always makes you feel more secure.

Li Qingqing picked Tuantuan up upright and then belatedly shivered: "If you hadn't reminded me, I would have forgotten. I didn't even notice something so important. I haven't received a single penny from him all these years. He has a fixed allowance every month in the army. He can't possibly spend it all by himself, can he?"

Although Li Dacheng and his wife favored sons over daughters, they were equally greedy. Whenever Duan Huaichuan sent money back home over the years, the avaricious couple would treat her like a human being.

"You should really sort things out. You need to keep control of the finances. Things are different now. You have a child now, and there's Zhong Yun'er eyeing you covetously in the hospital. Don't end up losing both your wife and your money, which would be a net loss."

Li Qingqing is now completely letting Duan Huaichuan run wild. Even though she has no feelings for that man anymore, she can't be foolish enough to refuse his money.
