Chapter 303
Yunmian held her mother's clothes and led her to help hang up the dripping wet stuffed bear to dry.
"When the sun comes out, will the big bear become soft?" She looked up at the plush bear placed on the shelf by her mother, her eyes full of anticipation.
"When the snow stops, the sun will come out." Yun Mujin was led by her daughter to sit back in her original seat. Then she heard the little girl mumbling about how to make money not far away.
Yun Mujin: "..."
One dollar and fifty cents, she also wanted to know how to make money from money.
"Uncle System, do you know how I can make more money?" Yun Mian looked up and asked for help from the ball of light squatting above her head.
The system was silent for a moment, then replied, "The simplest way is for me to scan all the garbage in this area, pick up the high-priced garbage and sell it. You should save up ten dollars first and then think of a way to make money from it."
Yunmian puffed up her face in distress: "But I can't leave my mother alone at home, it's very dangerous."
Both her grandparents are out, and she is the only one at home who can take care of her mother's safety and cannot leave her side for even a moment.
"...Then ask your grandparents to give you ten dollars." The system had no other choice. It couldn't just pick them up and sell them before giving them to Mianmian, right? Cheating to this extent, even if the system turned a blind eye, it would be unacceptable.
Things seemed to have come to a stalemate.
At noon, grandpa and grandma came back covered in snow. When they sat at the small table to eat, Yunmian held her small bowl and asked eagerly, "Grandma, can I go to the street to sell vegetables?"
The whole family eats together for one meal.
Seeing that everyone was listening to her, Yunmian took out her own 1.5 yuan and said to her grandmother, "I'll buy a few vegetables and sell them at our door. Is that okay?"
She didn't have to make a lot of money all at once, but she wanted to have more money little by little so that she could buy candy for her mother, food for her grandparents, and pencils for herself...
But grandma rejected her proposal.
Yunmian was a little frustrated, but still nodded obediently, put the money back into her pocket, and seriously promised her grandmother that she would never open the door and run out when no one was at home.
And never open the door to strangers!
Yunmian, the system, and even everyone in the live broadcast room thought that it was impossible for the kid to have money for the time being.
As a result, after the meal, she was first pulled into another room by her grandmother, who secretly stuffed ten yuan into her pocket and told her to buy whatever snacks she wanted.
After she and her grandmother came out of the house, she was taken aside by her grandfather, who also secretly stuffed a few crumpled dollars into her hands and gently told her not to lose it.
After grandpa and grandma left, Yunmian was holding the sixteen yuan and fifty cents in a daze, when her mother's soft voice rang in her ears again.
"Mianmian, take me to our room." Yun Mujin stretched out his hand in the direction of his daughter.
"Okay!" Yunmian jumped up, stuffed the money given by her grandparents into her pocket, ran over, held her mother's hand and walked to the bed in the room.
Yunmian thought her mother wanted to come in to sleep and rest, but after she came in, she sat on the edge of the bed, her fingers silently groping on the pillow on the edge of the bed, and after a while she actually took out a small wallet.
Yunmian looked at her mother in astonishment.
The wallet was stuffed into her hands, just like how her grandparents had secretly stuffed money into her hands before, only more gently.
"This contains the little money left from my mother's previous savings. There are probably only some small change. Your grandparents refused to take my money, so I have kept it by the bed all these years."
"Mom doesn't know why Mianmian wants to make money so much, but I know that Mianmian has always been a smart kid who is sensible and independent, so you can take this money and buy snacks if you want, or buy anything else if you want. But Mianmian promised mom that you can't waste this money lavishly, okay?"
Yun Mujin would not tell her daughter that it is not easy for the family to make money and ask her to be sensible and restrained. Her daughter is already five years old. When she was five years old, she lived a wealthy life and had whatever she wanted. Her parents never stopped her from getting what she wanted. Both materially and spiritually, she had enough.
But her daughter has been suffering with her family since she was born. Yun Mujin feels sorry for her daughter, but the current situation is difficult to change. She may even become the biggest burden in her daughter's future life.
So she hoped that her daughter's childhood, at least... would not be trapped forever in this freezing winter because of ten dollars.
Yunmian clenched the thick wallet in her hand, staring blankly at her mother who was sitting beside the bed and giving her gentle instructions. She sniffed, her eyes became a little red, and a layer of mist unconsciously covered her eyes.
"Mom..." The child finally pouted and lay in his mother's arms, hugged his mother and promised softly: "I won't waste money."
What she has more than money is much more love.
The love from her grandparents and her mother were all passed to her heart through these small amounts of money, without a single cent lost.
How could she bear to waste every bit of love from her family?
Yunmian hugged her mother tightly, rubbing her head in her arms, and refused to let go even though her hair was messed up.
"Mom, I love you so much..."
"Mom, I love you so much, more than a hundred bucks!"
"Mom... Grandpa and grandma love me so much too. I must be the happiest child in the world. No one can compare to me, right?"
"Mom, can you kiss me again?"
The system has become accustomed to the host's soft and coquettish behavior. After experiencing one world after another, even if it is a ball, it can remain calm under the surging and sincere emotional expressions of children.
But have the audience who have just been following Yunmian, the young player, ever seen such straightforward expression of emotions?
What they see every day are either intrigues or fights for life. This kind of sticky scene of kissing and hugging with mother... Sorry, I have never seen it!!
For a moment, the audience in the live broadcast room seemed to be shocked and stared at this scene in astonishment, unable to recover for a long time.
[…Did I enter the wrong channel? Isn’t this a live broadcast room for money game players? But a channel for some heartwarming TV series? ? ]
[No, you are not mistaken, but I think my eyes are probably broken, otherwise how could I see such an unreal scene?]
[This is more shocking than seeing a small world destroyed, isn’t it? Is this kid so straightforward? He loves directly without any euphemism? ? ]
[…If my parents saw this, they would probably rush in to snatch the child away, and then throw me into the garbage star region to fend for myself.]
[As a parent, to be honest, I really want to rush in and grab the child. Or has our technology not yet developed to the point where we can customize and replicate an identical child across the screen?]
[If my child could hug me and act like a spoiled child like this kid, I would never kick him out of the house and leave him to fend for himself when he is fifteen.]
[But similarly, you as parents have not done what the child's mother and grandparents have done, so don't expect the same emotional return, right? That's ridiculous, it's so absurd that even in dreams you would find it ridiculous!]
There was a quarrel in the live broadcast room.
The heat grew and the topic became more and more widespread. Later, the scene of Yun Mian hugging her mother and saying she loved her, which was incompatible with their world, spread rapidly on the Star Internet. More and more people participated in the dispute, and more and more people paid attention to this child who was completely different from other players in the money game.
But these Yunmian were all unaware of this.
She was lying in her mother's arms, counting the coins one by one in a low voice, just like a little miser.
"50 cents, one dollar, two dollars..."
"Thirteen dollars, eleven dollars, twelve dollars, thirteen dollars, eleven dollars, twelve dollars..."
When they heard that he was stuck in a weird cycle between eleven and thirteen dollars, both the system and Yun Mujin, and even the audience in the live broadcast room who were participating in the argument, fell silent.
Little Yunmian was still holding the green money and counting it out one by one: "Thirteen yuan, seventeen yuan, eleven yuan, twelve yuan..."
It seemed as if the money in her hands would never increase.
system:"……"
Audience: “…”
After listening for a while, Yun Mujin's eyebrows were covered with a hint of smile, and he reluctantly reminded: "Mianmian, you counted wrong."
The little boy who was obsessed with counting money looked up blankly, holding the money and looking at his mother blankly.
What's wrong? Nothing is wrong...
It’s no wonder that Yunmian doesn’t know what money looks like. In her previous life, she was trapped in the hospital and had no chance to read and write. She had never even seen what money looked like.
I have no memory of ever going to school in my life. I am a complete illiterate.
Maybe if you ask her to count in odd numbers, she can count from one to one hundred, but asking her to count money... is still a bit too difficult for the child.
The live broadcast room was already full of laughter, and the system also forced itself to hold back its laughter, listening to the host, under the guidance of his mother, finally counting the stack of money from thirteen yuan to fourteen yuan.
But my son, what you just passed over was a twenty-dollar bill!!!
The system deeply felt that it was impossible to sort out this money in a short period of time.
As expected, after counting all the money, Yun Mianmian held a neatly stacked pile of money and reported to her mother earnestly: "Mom, I have so much money, a full seventeen dollars!!"
Everyone: “…”
puff!
This is how illiterate people count money. Please understand.
While they understood, they laughed even louder, not giving the five-year-old player Yun Mianmian any face at all.
Yunmian didn't know that she had made a fool of herself, and that this joke had spread to another big world. She was obediently folding the money together and putting it back into the small wallet as her mother instructed.
From now on, this little wallet will be her little treasury to store her money!
The children who received a lot of money and new equipment hummed songs happily and shook their heads as they told their mothers about their long-term plans for the future.
"I want to make lots and lots of money, as much as a hundred yuan! Then I'll take my mom to get new glasses, buy new clothes for my grandparents, buy myself a lollipop as big as a pot, and share it with my mom, grandparents and I~"
"Mom, isn't one hundred dollars a lot of money?"
"Mom, when I have several hundred dollars, I will be the richest kid in the world. We can live in a big house and grandpa and grandma won't have to pick up garbage anymore."
"Mother……"
Cotton Boy: (mumbling) Eleven dollars, twelve dollars, thirteen dollars, eleven dollars...
Mom: Go to school and study hard. Study until you die!
System: Hey kid, you are not allowed to enter this cycle!
Audience: So cool, I like it, I want to watch more.
