Chapter 49 049 The First Time Seeing Money Return

Qin Xiaoxiao was filled with regret. If she had known it would turn out like this, she would never have bought so many things for the family.

Qin Xiaoxiao slapped the back of her hand twice with force behind her back.

Let's see if you dare to owe me that again next time!

They dare to take anything, they take whatever looks good, and they can't move when they see something nice. When will they be able to change the bad habits they developed in the apocalypse?

Now look what's happened! Not only have you made the old lady cry, but you've also angered the old man. Let's see what you do now.

Qin Xiaoxiao stepped forward hesitantly, her little hand tugging at Qin Aiguo's clothes. "Grandpa, I made Grandma angry. Hit me if you want, I'll accept the punishment."

Upon hearing that his most beloved granddaughter had offended his wife, Qin Aiguo's anger instantly subsided by half, but he still frowned as he looked at Qin Xiaoxiao.

"What did you do to upset your grandma? What did you do?"

Qin Xiaoxiao pointed to the things on the kang (a heated brick bed), "I bought a bunch of things, and Grandma got angry when she saw them. Grandpa, I won't do it again. I'll never dare to spend money recklessly again."

Qin Aiguo glanced at it and his eyes widened immediately.

What's wrong with you? Why are you buying so much stuff?

Grandma Qin was afraid that Qin Aiguo and Qin Xiaoxiao would get angry, so she quickly said, "Don't scare the child. I'm not crying because of these things. No, it's because of these things. Oh, I mean, I'm crying because I'm moved."

Qin Xiaoxiao looked at Old Mrs. Qin with a puzzled expression.

Touched? What's so touching? What did she do to move the old lady?

Grandma Qin smiled, took Qin Xiaoxiao's hand, and hugged her.

“Our little one is so sensible. Don’t you know what kind of person she is from childhood to adulthood? I would kneel down and worship anyone who can get a single penny from her.”

Everyone agrees that Qin Xiaoxiao is notoriously stingy; she has never spent a penny of her own parents' money, let alone anyone else's.

Qin Aiguo nodded unconsciously in agreement.

Mrs. Qin continued, "But look at how much money she spent today, and how much of it was for herself; it was all for us."

It's really not easy. This is the first time in eighteen years that she has seen money come back. How could she not be moved?

Now everyone understood; that's what moved Grandma Qin!

Indeed, it's such an honor to be able to spend Qin Xiaoxiao's money!

It was really tough!

Qin Aiguo understood immediately. He did nothing else but turn around and glare fiercely at Qin Ye.

"What are you good for? You're not even as sensible as your sister. You're such a big guy, but you're useless."

Qin Ye, feeling rejected, was completely bewildered.

"..."

He didn't understand. What did it have to do with him? Why was his grandpa's attention focused on him?

Seeing that Qin Ye didn't understand, Qin Aiguo became even more disgusted.

"What have I seen of you all these years? Nothing at all."

Qin Ye understood, but felt even more heartbroken.

The money he sends home every month doesn't count, right? And who does he give the things he buys for home each time he comes back?

So he got nothing at all, huh?

Grandma was so touched when my sister bought something that she cried, but the things he bought didn't count. Isn't that unfair?

Could you be any more biased? Does it have to be this obvious?

The favoritism was so extreme that it blinded him, and Qin Ye experienced firsthand what it meant to feel utterly hopeless.

"I'm talking to you, can't you even say something?"

Seeing Qin Ye looking dejected and speechless, with a helpless expression, Qin Aiguo lost his temper and kicked him.

Qin Ye was suddenly kicked and almost fell flat on his face.

Once he had regained his footing, he immediately went to the front line to make a statement.

“I am not as good as my sister. I should learn from her in the future. Next time I go to the county, I will also buy more things for my family to take care of my grandparents.”

Can't I just buy it too? If I don't know how to make it, can't I just learn?

If I follow my sister's approach, that should shut you all up, right?

Who knows...

Qin Aiguo kicked him again, but this time Qin Ye didn't flinch and stood firm.

"Learn my ass! Next time? You have money to burn? Give it to me, I'll spend it for you."

Don't you even consider how long your sister can use all this stuff? If she keeps buying more, our family could open a supply and marketing cooperative.

Qin Aiguo gave his grandson a look that said "You're so useless," letting him figure it out for himself. Then he turned around and smiled kindly at Qin Xiaoxiao, saying, "My granddaughter is so filial, much better than your useless brothers."

The useless older brother "..."

Qin Xiaoxiao looked at Qin Ye with pity, revealing a helpless smile.

This isn't my fault. I told you everything honestly, but I never expected you to be the one who got scolded in the end.

Qin Ye gave Qin Xiaoxiao a reassuring look that said, "I'm used to it," and Qin Xiaoxiao stopped worrying. She happily went around Qin Aiguo and went over the items again, explaining how to distribute them. This made Qin Aiguo beam with joy, his face full of wrinkles.

Seeing her son being kicked twice by his father-in-law, Ma Dahua, instead of getting angry, rolled her eyes at Qin Ye.

Dad is right. Sons are no match for daughters. They're useless. I wish Xiaoxiao were his daughter.

Ma Dahua was so envious. She thought to herself, if it weren't for the fact that her brother-in-law and his wife had both passed away and that they only had this one precious daughter, she would have taken Xiaoxiao away to be her daughter no matter what.

The more Ma Dahua looked at Qin Xiaoxiao, the more she liked her. She felt that Qin Xiaoxiao was perfect in every way, especially her appearance, which was exactly what she wanted.

Ma Dahua's smile grew increasingly eerie as she watched Qin Xiaoxiao, startling Qin Ye.

His mother had a stroke? Why is his smile so creepy?

The family showered Qin Xiaoxiao with praise, and when Qin Feng returned after a long day of work, they praised her again.

After hearing about Qin Xiaoxiao's great achievements, unsurprisingly, Qin Feng unleashed a flurry of Foshan Shadowless Kicks at Qin Ye.

"You're useless. What use are you? You're not even half a finger more valuable than your sister. You're a soldier, but you're nothing. Get lost and stay away from me. Just looking at you makes me angry."

Qin Ye, who had been kicked again without any reason, didn't want to talk anymore. In the eyes of his grandparents and parents, explaining was just covering up, and covering up was equivalent to being guilty. It was better not to say anything than to listen to the scolding and get kicked less often.

Qin Xiaoxiao looked at Qin Ye with even more sympathy.

Oh! Her irresistible charm!

Even after all this, they can still find excuses to favor her. How much more adorable must she be!

Qin Xiaoxiao happily distributed the things she bought, and the Qin family liked her even more from top to bottom. Even Qin Ye looked at Qin Xiaoxiao with more doting eyes.

Although my younger sister is a bit of a troublemaker, she is cute, kind, and filial, and these qualities alone can make up for all her shortcomings.

Besides, the younger sister is just a little stingy, but who is generous? So being a little stingy is nothing, and it actually makes her even more adorable.

The Qin family's scrutiny of Qin Xiaoxiao has intensified. In their eyes, Qin Xiaoxiao is not only physically weak and frail, but also kind, lovely, and filial. She is the kind of person who is generous to her own family and can even abandon her stingy nature.
