The luxurious Willson family villa is brightly lit. Tonight is the birthday banquet of the seventy-year-old Mrs. Willson, the head of the Willson family. Many grandchildren, granddaughters, and grandsons-in-law gave gifts. “Grandma, I heard that you love tea. This century-old Pu’er tea brick is worth 500,000 and is a birthday gift for you.” “Grandma, I heard that you believe in Buddha. This jade Buddha is carved from Hetian jade and is worth 700,000.” Old Mrs. Willson looked at the various gifts and laughed, making the whole family happy. At this moment, Mrs. Willson’s eldest grandson-in-law, Charlie, suddenly said: “Grandma, can you lend me a million? Aunt Lena from the orphanage has uremia and needs money for treatment. The entire Willson family was shocked. Everyone looked at Charlie with incredible eyes. This live-in son-in-law is too courageous, right? The Lady Willson was over her birthday. Not only did he not prepare any gifts, he even dared to open his mouth and ask the Lady Willson to borrow one million? Three years ago, the surviving Mr. Willson, don’t know from where found Charlie, and insisted on marrying his eldest granddaughter Claire Willson to him. At that time, Charlie was penniless, just like a beggar, same as now. After the two got married, the Old Master passed away. Since then, the Willson family has been deliberately trying to drive him away. It’s just that Charlie is indifferent, and is not moved by other people’s insults, so he has always been a live-in son-in-law in the Willson family. It is also helpless to ask the Lady Willson to borrow money today. Aunt Lena from the orphanage where he was taken in and saved, had uremia. Dialysis and kidney transplantation required at least one million. He really had no choice but to speak to the Lady Willson. He felt that today is the Lady Willson’s birthday, and then she may be kind and willing to help when she is happy. Unexpectedly, the Old Mrs. Willson was still laughing for a second, and she immediately pulled her face down this second. She threw the teacup in her hand to the ground and shouted angrily: “b*start thing, you are here to celebrate my birthday or to borrow money?” Charlie’s wife, Claire, hurried forward and explained to the Lady Willson: “Grandma, Charlie is ignorant, don’t be surprised.” With that said, she was about to pull Charlie aside. At this time, Claire’s cousin, Wendy, sneered and said, “Sister, look at what kind of rubbish your marriage is! Gerald and I were just engaged and not yet married, so Gerald gave grandma a Hetian Jade Buddha, it’s good for your husband, he didn’t bring any gifts, and he still have the face to ask grandma to borrow money!”
