In any case, Wang Mu ultimately preserved the Wang family's reputation. Although it seemed somewhat humiliating, few people could discern the details, and it didn't cause much of a stir...
Wang Wei tossed the van keys to Man Niu and said...
"You wait for me here in your car. My family and I will buy some things and be right back..."
"Yes, young master..."
Having received a response from the bull, Wang Wei turned to look at his parents. They had both calmed down by now. Seeing Wang Wei turn around, Wang Qiang said with a serious expression...
"Xiaowei, although our family has been farmers for generations, we've never had any bad people in our family. Where did you get this money? If you've done anything illegal, we'll go with you to turn yourself in right now and try to get leniency..."
Hearing his father's words, Wang Wei's face darkened. He hadn't expected his father to think this way. But it was understandable that the old man would have such thoughts; after all, besides breaking the law, they couldn't think of any other way to acquire such wealth in such a short time...
Left with no other option, Wang Wei could only patiently explain.
"Dad, don't you have any faith in your son? Do you think I'm the kind of person who would break the law? Don't worry, all my money comes from legitimate sources..."
"Xiaowei, your dad and I didn't study much, so don't lie to us. Even if our family worked hard for ten lifetimes, we couldn't earn this much money..."
Zhou Cui also said with a look of disbelief...
Wang Wei was also helpless. After thinking for a moment, he could only say...
"Dad, Mom, haven't I just found a great godfather...?"
Wang Wei then recounted how he carried the soul-summoning banner and protected the ashes, and also mentioned that he had been recognized as a godfather…
Finally, to summarize...
"Mom and Dad, my godfather is really amazing. He was worried I'd be mistreated, so he just gave me a little pocket money..."
Wang Qiang and Zhou Cui still looked suspicious, but they didn't know exactly how much money a national treasure-level scientific researcher had; they simply felt that the allowance might be a bit too much...
If they knew that not only was their son's money not given by their godfather, but that he also funded six of their godfather's research projects, I wonder if the two elderly people would be completely shocked...
"Xiaowei, your godfather is a good man. You can't just waste his money like that. Our family may be poor, but that doesn't mean we can justifiably squander other people's money..."
Your godfather doesn't earn all that money easily. He gives you pocket money because he's willing to take care of you. But if you keep wasting it like this, this bond will eventually run out. Then you'll not only have no money, but you'll also lose such a good family member...
"You must take us to meet your godfather these next couple of days so we can properly thank him. And you're not allowed to be so extravagant in the future; it's simply a waste of money..."
Listening to Zhou Cui's heartfelt advice, Wang Wei deeply agreed and felt happy to have parents with such sound values...
“Your mother is right, all these things you bought are too expensive. See if you can return the useless ones. How can you spend money so recklessly? It's simply ridiculous…”
Wang Qiang wholeheartedly agreed with his wife, and his words carried a touch of authority, befitting the head of the household…
"Mom and Dad, you're right, but since you're going to see my godfather, you can't keep wearing these patched clothes, or his siblings will laugh at you. Anyway, that jerk just gave us a membership card, so I'll use the money in it to buy you some clothes..."
Seeing his parents hesitate, he quickly reassured them.
"Don't worry, not all clothes in the mall are that expensive. There are clothes that cost around a hundred yuan. We won't buy anything expensive, just a few new clothes..."
Hearing Wang Wei say this, the elderly couple were still somewhat reluctant, not wanting to spend any more money. They had lived frugally their whole lives, and suddenly spending so much money was something they couldn't accept...
"Mom and Dad, although Godfather won't look down on us for being from the countryside, I'm going to take you to meet Yinchen's mother later. You don't want to be dressed like this in front of your future mother-in-law, do you? We should make a good first impression, don't you think?"
After Wang Wei's repeated persuasion, the two finally stopped hesitating and went shopping with him...
However, when buying clothes, the two of them always kept an eye on the prices, and if it was even slightly expensive, they would pull Wang Wei away, which left Wang Wei feeling somewhat helpless...
In the end, the two of them managed to buy two outfits. The younger sister, on the other hand, bought a lot of clothes. But this was only temporary. After all, Wang Wei's taste wasn't great. Thinking about how many sisters-in-law she had, she figured she could let her sisters-in-law worry about these things in the future...
Wang Wei took his family to the Shanhe Villa area. Hu Li's men had already begun protecting Ding Zhong and Ding Yao. Those cars were meant for their use, so he entrusted the task of retrieving the cars to Hu Li...
To Wang Wei's surprise, his parents and Tang Ting were incredibly warm to each other on their first meeting, like old friends who hadn't seen each other in a long time. This scene put Wang Wei at ease...
He was initially worried that things might go wrong after they met, but now it seems there was no need to worry at all…
After settling his family in, Wang Wei arrived at the Japanese-style street in Beijing and found an antique shop in an inconspicuous corner...
Without any hesitation, Wang Wei went inside. He was there to find someone…
Ring ring ring…
The bell above the door rang when it was opened, producing a pleasant ringing sound...
"Welcome, benefactor..."
Before he could utter the last word, it caught in his throat. Sakata Ichiro stared at Wang Wei in shock, wondering why he was in his shop...
“Benefactor Wang, we have no further dealings with each other, so why do you still bother my cultivation?”
Wang Wei curled his lip, thinking to himself, "If you had just obediently become a monk, I wouldn't be here. Who told you to get involved in espionage for no reason?"
"Master Sakata is wrong. The arising and ceasing of conditions are all part of the Dharma. The fact that we can meet again proves that the connection between us has not ended..."
After Wang Wei finished speaking, he looked calmly at Sakata Ichiro, but at that moment, Sakata Ichiro's heart was far from calm. He truly did not want to have anything to do with Wang Wei anymore...
"Mr. Wang, why don't you tell me what you want to see me about?"
Sakata Ichiro didn't want to play games with Wang Wei, so he wanted to ask him directly about the purpose of his visit...
"It's nothing major, I just want to do some business with Master Sakata..."
Business?
Sakata Ichiro looked at Wang Wei and thought to himself, "What business can a monk like me possibly have to do with?"
“Benefactor Wang, I have no more valuables left…”
Sakata Ichiro mistakenly thought Wang Wei was there to swindle him out of his assets, so before Wang Wei could speak, he immediately shut him up…
