Chapter 53 Relatives Come to Chengdu



After throwing away the bedding, Wang Yitong decided to start her life anew and work hard to earn money to return the money Zhang Benyuan used to buy the car, open the shop, and invest. Only in this way could she have a clear conscience.

I drove to the mall and bought a new mattress pad, a four-piece set, and a summer quilt. I also bought pajamas for my mom and aunt. Then, remembering we needed a computer, I went to Gome and bought two Dell laptops and a new phone. After shopping, I quickly returned home and cooked kelp, corn, and pork rib soup in the electric pressure cooker. Then I washed the tomatoes and lettuce, and when the wait staff arrived, I made scrambled eggs with tomatoes and lettuce with garlic sauce.

She went back to her room and put on her new mattress pad and quilt. The odor in the bedroom had dissipated, leaving only the scent of perfume. Wang Yitong took out her phone and texted her cousin Tiantian: Tiantian, he and I have broken up. Please don't mention it again.

My cousin replied: I understand. I will support you no matter what decision you make.

Wang Yitong then deleted the message, turned on her new computer, and placed it on the table. She opened a USB drive and copied the script and notes she had compiled onto both computers. She also opened three new customer service numbers. She then went to the bathroom to put away the toiletries for her two relatives. She also planned to bring her father to Chengdu after her mother and aunt had spent a week there to help, as coal mining work was still too dangerous.

After finishing all that, Wang Yitong took some time to check the Sichuan Run shares she'd bought yesterday. They had already turned positive this morning, rising to 4.51. After some thought, she decided to sell all her shares at 4.50. She quickly sold them, paying 3.66 for the stock, making a profit and instantly increasing her available funds. (Unrelated text follows: "Wan Yitong predicted a drop in the afternoon. The morning's trend was steady and orderly. There might be another drop in the afternoon.")

By the time she pulled out her phone, it was almost 11:30. Their bus was at 9:30, arriving at Chengdu's Shiyangchang Bus Station around 12:00. Wang Yitong hurried out and drove to the station, parking the car. After waiting for about 10 minutes, they emerged from the exit at 12:10. Wang Yitong hurried over to meet them, taking their mother and aunt's luggage and leading them to the parking lot.

When the two relatives saw Wang Yitong's car, they were surprised. No one had ever told them that she had a car before. Of course, Wang Yitong's mother Chen Yin didn't know much about cars, but her second aunt Chen Jie knew the BMW brand. After the three of them put their luggage in the trunk and got in the back seat, Wang Yitong handed them two bottles of mineral water and drove them to their residence.

Wang Yitong's mother asked, "Your business is so good, how come you bought a car just a few months after graduating and starting work? Is it expensive?"

"Mom, it's not expensive. I bought it with a loan. It's more convenient to go out and buy goods."

Second Aunt asked: "How can it be cheap? It still costs hundreds of thousands. It seems that Tongtong has made some money from her online shop now, so she can afford to buy such a nice car."

Wang Yitong's mother said: "Why is it so expensive? It's a waste of money. Why should a woman buy a car? Save the money and your husband will buy it after you get married."

Wang Yitong became a little angry after hearing this. No matter what she did, she would not get support. In her mother Chen Yin's eyes, she was always opposed and had to rely on others.

"Mom, don't worry about my affairs. I didn't ask you to pay."

Second Auntie heard that the atmosphere between the two had deteriorated, and hurried to intervene, saying, "Tongtong is doing business now. A good car is safe, and people will look up to her more. Big sister, you should stop talking. It's a happy thing in itself. Just enjoy your life happily from now on."

After that, the car became quiet, and Wang Yitong played some music to ease the atmosphere. About half an hour later, they arrived at their residence. Wang Yitong asked her aunt and mother to wash up and rest first, and she went to the kitchen to fry the rest and brought it to the table. Her mother Chen Yin also came to the kitchen to help serve the rice and ribs. The three of them went to the restaurant to eat. While eating, the two relatives asked Wang Yitong about his work and online store. Wang Yitong answered them carefully. When asked where the money came from to open the online store, Wang Yitong said that he bought it with the money from his previous job.

Meanwhile, Wang Yitong was checking stocks on her phone. Chuanrun shares had already begun to fall that afternoon, currently trading at 3.55. After a moment's pause, Wang Yitong placed a full buy order at 3.50, using all her available funds. The three of them continued chatting while they waited for dinner. Wang Yitong asked her two relatives to return to their rooms to rest while she continued to check the stock market on her computer. The stock had dipped to 3.45 in the afternoon before rebounding to close around 3.51. Now, to repay Zhang Benyuan as quickly as possible, Wang Yitong, despite the pressure, bought all her shares. Fortunately, she had escaped unscathed; all that remained was to see how things would unfold tomorrow.

In the afternoon, when her mother had already woken up, Wang Yitong put 3,000 yuan in an envelope and handed it to her. "2,000 yuan of this is your salary. It's been a while since November, and the remaining 1,000 yuan is for family living expenses. There is a bus stop outside the community. There are two bus cards in the drawer, one new and one I used before. Also, the computer you use is for the elderly, so I replaced it with a smartphone. I also gave you a card for broadband. You can talk to each other for 300 minutes for free. You can use this card and phone in the future. I'll teach you later. When you have nothing to do, go out for a walk. We'll pack the express delivery in the evening. You can see how to do it then. Starting tomorrow, you and your second aunt will be in charge."

After receiving the money, my mother said, "Don't give me 2,000 yuan. Why should I pay more for helping my family?"

"That won't do. We're on our own. You earn money working at home, and I have to pay outsiders too. I'm comfortable giving it to my family, so you can take it with confidence. I give my second aunt and Tiantian a commission of 2 yuan per order. I'll tell you in secret that I make tens of thousands of yuan in net profit every day. Don't tell Dad or anyone else, just rest assured."
