Shang Tao couldn't contain himself any longer about Cao Xinchun and Maodouhua's unexpected wrestling match. Before Grandma Yang had even gone far, he immediately started talking excitedly.

"Big sister, why did my aunt and second aunt fall down? Was it really our parents appearing in spirit? Can you see our parents? Why can't I see them?"

Yang Wanwan made up her mind that she would never tell anyone her secret in her life, not even Er Ye and Shang Tao.

Because that would put them in danger.

"Shang Tao, that was just a coincidence, because they have something to hide. My aunt and second aunt never liked Mom. After Mom and Dad passed away, they mistreated us. They have something to hide. Plus, I exposed their tricks and threatened to report them to the police station. I said that on purpose, and they got too nervous. You see, I don't dare to say anything to my uncle and second uncle, because they are both cunning and shrewd. What I said wouldn't have any effect on them."

Shang Tao and Er Ye thought Yang Wanwan's words made a lot of sense. In addition, Cao Xinchun had been successfully fooled by Yang Wanwan several times, so they believed Yang Wanwan's words without a doubt.

"When you grow up and go to college, there's a course called psychology. If you study psychology, you'll find that you can react accordingly by exploring other people's psychology and then achieve your own goals. For example, the reason I forced them to admit today that we didn't use Grandpa's money at all is based on this principle."

At this point, Er Ye and Shang Tao were even happier.

Er Ye said, "Big sister, today was so much fun! I want to learn from you and take control of things myself!"

"Yes, yes, big sister! I want to learn from you too!"

Yang Wanwan patted her younger siblings' heads, her heart filled with joy.

My younger siblings are not only brave, but also smart and not reckless.

"I believe you will both be more successful than me in the future, provided you study hard and acquire more knowledge. I've said before that you both must go to university, so we need to work hard!"

"Strive hard!"

"Strive hard!"

The three siblings chatted for a while. Yang Wanwan asked her younger siblings to help her carry her things to the market. The two of them went to school, while she went to the market to sell pig's head meat.

Yang Wanwan has already asked her teacher for leave.

Rural schools are relatively lax in their management, and since Yang Wanwan did well on this exam, the teachers turned a blind eye and didn't bother with her.

When the woman at the next stall saw her selling pig's head meat, she was extremely surprised. "Little Yang, you're selling pig's head meat today?"

Yang Wanwan frequently comes to the market, and many people have taken her in. Especially because she is an orphan who lives with her younger siblings, people pay more attention to her and her siblings, praising them for being capable.

As Yang Wanwan set up her stall, she replied, "Yes."

How much is this?

"Five yuan per pound."

After braising, I selected some more to send to my grandparents' house; there were still over twenty kilograms left.

The older woman exclaimed in admiration, "You siblings are really something! You even have soup here? How much is the soup?"

Yang Wanwan carried most of the remaining broth in an aluminum pot, weighing about ten pounds. It was hot, and the three siblings couldn't finish it, so they brought it out as an extra portion.

"This is not for sale. Whoever buys pig's head meat will get a free bowl of soup."

The aunt praised it again.

The pig's head meat sold out quickly; it was almost all gone by 8:30. I made over 100 yuan, and after deducting the cost, I made a profit of 70 or 80 yuan. That's pretty good.

Teachers in this town only earn three to five hundred yuan a month!

They are a brother and sister; they can earn a teacher's monthly salary by selling these items four or five times.

Of course, this was because Yang Wanwan moved an exceptionally large pig's head from her spatial storage to make up the difference; otherwise, it wouldn't have sold for so much money.

She asked someone nearby to watch over the stall, and went to the clothing section to buy a set of clothes for Er Ye and Shang Tao respectively.

I bought jeans; they're durable. I also bought two bras for myself and Er Ye each.

You won't have much left from a hundred dollars.

Yang Wanwan put the aluminum pot, knife, and basin into a snakeskin bag, carried the stool, bag, and bag home.

Pedestrians strolled along the street in twos and threes, chatting animatedly about various new developments. Whose child dropped out of school to work? Whose child got into university? Whose child advanced to a higher level of education? Whose family earned so much money working that they built a house back home…

Yang Wanwan listened to their loud conversation, her eyes remaining cold and indifferent.

These things, so full of childhood memories, these simple and honest villagers—she felt no sense of familiarity whatsoever. Perhaps, people have traveled too far and become too weary, losing all sense of nostalgia for their hometown.

It's like when she writes essays now; they're always cold and impersonal, never filled with emotion or reminiscence.

What she's thinking about now is how to get revenge and how to get rid of the negative influence brought by Yang Dali and his group.

She knew that she and her two siblings would not be able to leave Fuxing Reservoir Village for the next few years.

The reason lies with Shang Tao.

Shang Tao has a strange illness that prevents him from leaving Fuxing Reservoir Village before the age of fifteen.

In his previous life, Shang Tao had left, but soon fell ill.

When he returned to the village, his illness miraculously disappeared.

Later, this happened two or three more times.

It wasn't until Shang Tao was admitted to high school and went to the county town that things changed.

Therefore, Yang Wanwan had to handle the village affairs well and deal with the potential dangers posed by Yang Dali and his group. Because she and her siblings would be living in Fuxing Reservoir Village for at least several more years.

Back home, after putting her things away, Yang Wanwan quickly fed the two pigs and then went straight to the neighboring village to contact Butcher Zhang and have one of the larger pigs slaughtered.

She had to get up early every day to cook pig feed, prepare fresh ingredients in the evening, and feed the pigs three meals a day on time, which she found extremely tedious.

Instead of wasting this time, you might as well do something else to make money.

Because she was busy, she was not very punctual for school and was often late.

As for reporting the incident to the police, she can only do so when she has time.

That morning, as soon as she entered the classroom, a male classmate named Wang Jin said, "Yang Wanwan, Kuang Jie's Parker pen is missing. We just found it in your desk."

There was a boarding student in their class named Kuang Jie. Her family was from the county town. Her parents were so busy for some reason that they had no time to take care of her, so they entrusted her to a relative's house and she temporarily stayed in the class.

Kuang Jie comes from a well-off family, and everything she eats, wears, and uses is the best in the class; she's a pampered young lady.

Kuang Jie recently acquired a Parker fountain pen, which reportedly costs several hundred dollars. She cherishes the pen and carefully wipes it clean after each use before capping it and storing it in her pink cat-themed pencil case.
