After joking around, Chen Hong turned to Uncle Wang and said, "Uncle, to be honest, I don't plan to do any more work in Jinan, and I still have a fishing boat worth several hundred thousand yuan in Rongcheng."

During my free time during summer and winter vacations, I can earn five or six hundred thousand yuan by going out to sea on a single trip.

We go out to sea four or five times a year, spending thirty to fifty days there, and we can earn two to three million yuan, which is enough for my daughter and me to live on.

I also own stocks and several properties that I rent out, so I have income every month.

Don't worry, I'm not short of money! I earn more than you guys do working a regular job now, I'm quite well-off myself.

Chen Hong's words were like a thunderbolt, shocking all four members of Uncle Wang's family.

Wang Hongwei laughed exaggeratedly twice: "Chen Hong, this is no way to brag! Aren't you afraid we'll ask you for money?"

You can't fool me. I have two classmates whose families are also fishermen along the coast.

Let alone Jiaodong, even my classmates who live in Xiamen, where the fishing industry is the most developed in the country, have never heard of making so much money fishing.

If fishing could make him rich, he wouldn't have kept changing jobs so frequently, and he's almost forty and still hasn't settled down.

If you want us to feel at ease, you don't need to exaggerate like that! Haha, don't worry, you can use my dad's money as you like, I won't mind.

We've been siblings for so many years, you should understand I'm not lying. Even if I don't have any money, if I did, I'd lend it to you.

Chen Hong pinched him angrily, "What do you mean? You don't believe your sister has this ability, do you?!"

You may have forgotten, but my swimming skills are unmatched for miles around.

Going out to sea to fish and catching seafood are all easy tasks.

When I went fishing, it was like a dragon entering the sea, a perfect match for my profession. Back in the day, I wasn't called "White Stripe in the Waves" for nothing.

I have no interest in working or running a business now. If you are really worried about my income, please take some time to look after my children.

When I come back from a fishing trip, I have everything I need for food and drink. For me, fishing requires no investment other than fuel costs; it's a highly profitable business.

Working a regular job or running a business doesn't earn you much money. You also have to be mindful of other people's attitudes and work from dawn till dusk. With so much work and so little pay, how can you have time to spend with your children?

My main goal now is to help my child study hard. Whatever he wants to learn, I will find a way to make him learn it.

Money can be earned slowly, but the child's education cannot be neglected at all. Besides, I really don't need the money right now!

Although Uncle Wang was skeptical of Chen Hong's words, he suddenly thought of the Mercedes downstairs and felt relieved.

If someone can afford a luxury car worth millions, they must have some savings. Since she knows what she's doing and can manage her life well, her parents are at ease.

Wang Hongwei and his wife fell into deep thought. Judging from Chen Hong's confident demeanor, she must have also accumulated some wealth.

They don't really believe that Chen Hong is a rich woman now. She has a car, a house, and savings. It would be quite good if she had a few million in assets.

As for her mention of making money from stocks, Wang Hongwei and his wife simply forgot about it after hearing it.

He lost 50,000 to 60,000 yuan on the stocks he bought, and he's still stuck with them and can't cash them out. Talking about making money in today's stock market is pure nonsense.

They're probably just as embarrassed to admit they're losing money, like him. Sigh! They really are in the same boat!

"Chen Hong, if you like fishing, then go fishing in your spare time! Stocks are not something ordinary people like us can play. That stuff is almost like gambling, it all depends on luck. Don't play it anymore."

You work hard to earn money, so don't waste it.

We are like tiny shrimp in the sea, always in danger of being eaten by big fish.

"It's better to buy a house and put your money in the bank than to invest in stocks."

Upon hearing this, Chen Hong could feel the dejection in his words. It seemed that Brother Hongwei might have also lost money in the stock market. No wonder he said he had no money earlier!

She knew absolutely nothing about stocks; she made money because of her memories from her previous life, buying only a few sure-fire winning stocks.

This is her secret, and she can't share it with anyone, not even her brother Hongwei, who is as close as a brother.

She could only obediently nod, indicating that she had already sold all her shares and would not buy any more in the future.

They agreed to rest next weekend, and Uncle Wang's family went to Chen Hong's house to get acquainted with the family. Chen Hong and her child got up to say goodbye.

The next day, Yu Yang began his formal classes. Chen Hong also accompanied her child every day, staying at the training center and listening to the lessons.

After two days, Chen Hong returned home disappointed. Yu Yang, on the other hand, absorbed new knowledge quickly and had already become very enthusiastic about the new courses offered by the training center.

Chen Hong, who had hoped to learn from others, was quite discouraged. It seems that even after living two lives and gaining a spatial ability, she still has no artistic talent whatsoever.

That day, Chen Hong picked up her son from school and, in the car, helplessly expressed her thoughts to Yang:

"Xiao Bao, it seems you'll have to work hard on your own from now on! Mom originally planned to audit the classes for a few days, thinking of learning calligraphy and guitar with you."

My daughter and I can learn from and encourage each other, but it's a real shame that your maternal grandmother didn't pass on any artistic talent to me.

From now on, Mom will have to rely on you to hear her play the guitar, and you'll also be in charge of making our family's New Year couplets.

Mom, let's stick to what you're good at: cooking and fishing! But we won't force you; interest is the best teacher.

Learn what you like, and if you don't like it, give it up decisively. Never force yourself to waste time.

Look at Mom, she likes listening to music, but I'm not cut out for it, so I'll never force myself to.

I'm thinking of changing direction and learning some English, Japanese, Korean, or something similar, so I won't be unable to understand what foreign ships are saying when I encounter them at sea."

Yu Yang nodded repeatedly as he listened to his mother's words; he understood what she meant.

Mom wanted him to enjoy learning, not to force him to learn things he didn't like.

That would be very difficult, just like his classmate Xiaocheng. He didn't like the guitar, but his mother insisted that he learn it. If he didn't learn it well, she would punish him by making him stand or not eat.

Xiao Cheng is so pitiful. Xiao Cheng's mother clearly likes the guitar, so why does she demand that her child learn it well when she herself can't learn it well?

Yu Yang didn't dare tell Xiao Cheng her mother's opinion. If she didn't like something, she should just give up decisively. It was painful and a waste of time. She didn't know what Xiao Cheng's mother was thinking.

Fortunately, Yu Yang believes that her mother is different from other mothers, and that her mother is the one who loves her child the most.

Unlike Xiaocheng's mother, who says she's doing it all for the child's good but then makes him do things he doesn't like, and doesn't even see how much pain and suffering he's going through.

"Mom, you are the best mom in the world, I love you the most!"

Chen Hong smiled broadly, "Mom loves you the most too! You're the best son in the world!"

Tell me! What do you want to eat tonight? Mom will definitely make it for you!

Yu Yang smiled brightly, her eyes crinkling, and said sweet words without hesitation, "Mom, you decide! I'll eat whatever you make!"
