Chapter 31
Closest to Getting Rich Overnight (3)
Well anyway, his status in this family was lower than the pig they kept. Was it his turn to decide?
Jiang Xiaoman bit her hand and thought hard for a long time. She finally said in a low voice, “My teacher said that rather than give someone something, it’s better to teach someone how to get it. Why don’t you teach my uncle how to make money? He would be grateful.”
Jiang Xiumei followed up. “Right right right. That’s reasonable.”
Yu Wencheng was truly stunned for a long time.
He looked at Jiang Xiaoman and didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “Does your teacher still teach this kind of knowledge?”
This… isn’t this way outside of the curriculum?
Teaching people how to make money? Interesting.
Jiang Xiaoman blinked and asked, “Have you never heard of the saying, ‘give a man a fish and you feed him for a day, teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime’?”
“…” Meeting her sincere little face, Yu Wencheng went silent for a moment, but he finally smiled. He gave her a thumbs up and praised her without hesitation. “Little girl, you’re amazing.”
Yu Wencheng touched his cheek, his old face a little red. He thought that he had shown the utmost sincerity, but he didn’t expect that he hadn’t given it enough thought.
After taking the bank card back, Yu Wencheng said in shame. “I put a million on this card. I thought that it should be enough for you to live well, but now that I think about it, I didn’t consider it thoroughly enough. I will continue to ponder this matter.”
One million!
Jiang Xiumei was startled, and Jiang Xing was quivering.
Only Jiang Xiaoman alone, who had no idea about money, was still indifferent.
Okay, that was a lot of money… But they just refused it with so much conviction, they couldn’t stop him from going back now, right?
Jiang Xiumei and Jiang Xing couldn’t do such a shameful thing, so they could only watch Yu Wencheng leave in tears.
After he left, the big man Jiang Xing squatted on the ground, muttering. “One million, one million… This is the closest I’ve ever gotten to getting rich overnight!”
Tears flowed down as he said that.
He looked at Jiang Xiaoman with tears streaming down his eyes, crying in an aggrieved voice. “Xiaoman, oh, Xiaoman. Whenever I got some food, I never forgot to pack some to bring home for you. What did I ever do wrong for you to treat me like this…”
Jiang Xiaoman knew that he wanted money, so she ran back to the house and found the tin box she used to save money.
There were 10 cent and 50 cent coins inside, and they made a clinking noise when you shake it.
They were all of Jiang Xiaoman’s wealth, even the candies were inside.
“Uncle, here you go. I have the money.”
Jiang Xing saw a bunch of colorful coins and got even angrier. He almost had a heart attack and couldn’t hold back anymore, and pulled her to spank her butt.
Jiang Xiaoman only got to scream once and hadn’t gotten spanked much when Jiang Xiumei rushed in and beat him with a stick.
Jiang Xiumei said, “You still dare to hit Xiaoman! Xiaoman sees farther than you. Do you think I don’t understand your temperament? We can’t accept this money! Don’t think about it anymore in the future. Get a job and go to work, or follow me to the farm. Want to get rich overnight? Ha!”
Jiang Xing cried bitterly.
Several days later, he could finally accept the facts calmly. Yu Wencheng had been gone for several days, and it was as if he had never been there.
This time, the only one who came out happy was the system.
Because it managed to eliminate the factors that could interfere with the main quest!
If they accepted the gift from Yu Wencheng, then the host’s family would have a lot of money. She would not grow up destitute, having anything to eat, and end up being blackened!
Who knew that such a change could happen if Jiang Xing didn’t die? Luckily it could rely on its ingenuity to get them back on track for the main quest.
The system felt that it had worried too much, and was very generous when handing out the points. It especially gave Jiang Xiaoman some bonus and gave her 60 points in total.
But it had only been happy for a few days before that bastard Yu Wencheng came again!
