Lin Shiwei sighed helplessly and said to her daughter earnestly, "Our family is not short of money, but there is no reason to give money to others foolishly. The same is true for doing business. Don't you think about the extra 20 cents? If every villager sells dozens of kilograms, and each kilogram is 20 cents more, how much money will our family lose? How much is your father and I's monthly salary?"
"Without your grandmother's subsidy, how long do you think our family can survive at this rate? Moreover, there is now another rich girl who is competing with mom for your grandmother's property. Who knows, your grandmother may not subsidize us in the future. Our lives will be very difficult, and you won't be able to buy new leather shoes in the future."
"Mom, let me ask you something. Do you want to become a poor family like the Gu family siblings?"
To be honest, the Ye couple regretted fighting for this and doing the stupid thing of stealing the business. At that time, they just wanted to cut off the financial resources of the Gu siblings and the second branch of the Qin family, ruin their popularity, make the Gu siblings jealous and angry, and then instigate the Liu family to go against them, so that they would completely lose the support of the villagers.
However, Bai Ban's plan failed to take into account that his adoptive mother would appear in Yun Province.
The most hateful thing is that they took over the business, but the Gu brothers and sisters did not suffer much from the loss of money, while the Ye family suffered heavy losses due to the operational mistakes made by their stupid daughter.
Her parents' words were like a fist that hit her heart hard, making her depressed and embarrassed. "Mom and Dad, it's my fault. I won't act on my own in the future."
She couldn't imagine the ordinary poor life of the Gu family, running around and showing up in public to make money. She could accept that Gu Peichuan and the Gu family had no money, but she couldn't accept that the Ye family went bankrupt.
Until now, she still didn't believe that the 5,000 yuan in Gu Xiaomei's passbook belonged to the Gu family. She and her parents had always believed that it was just the capital given by the government to the Gu brothers and sisters to buy mountain products.
Although Gu Xiaomei received a few hundred yuan in reward from the police, there are many families who have a few hundred yuan these days. If a family has only a few hundred yuan, they are considered wealthy.
Lin Shiwei had a worried look on her face. Compared with the Gu brothers and sisters, Qin Wanqing's battalion commander fiancé was the one to be feared. She wondered if her adoptive mother had the connections to transfer Jiang Zhengyi to a remote island?
Recently, the Liu family has been celebrating a great event and they are in high spirits. The Ye couple told them not to collect mountain products anymore, so the Liu family members all gave up their business, only because the youngest sister Liu Xiaoxi successfully recognized Mrs. Wei as her relative, which brought enormous wealth to the Liu family.
With the capital to lie down, who would have the time to work for the Ye family and earn a few dollars?
The Liu family's brothers and sisters-in-law originally despised Liu Xiaoxi and her son for being freeloaders. But now that Liu Xiaoxi has joined the upper class, her children's status in the Liu family has also risen. The brothers and sisters-in-law wish to worship the mother and son as their idol and try their best to curry favor with them.
As soon as Liu Xiaoxi got the money, he took his whole family out shopping, buying everything from laundry to new shoes to vanishing cream and so on. Overnight, the Liu family changed their appearance and became nouveau riche.
Everyone put on expensive new clothes and shoes, had a big meal at a state-owned restaurant, and then showed off in the streets. After showing off for a few blocks, they went back to the village to show off. After showing off in one village, they showed off in the next village, for fear that others would not know that they were rich.
The richer they are, the more arrogant they become, except that they cannot wear gold and silver. The Liu family even deliberately showed off in front of the second branch of the Qin family.
"Have you heard that Liu Xiaoxi is the daughter of a wealthy family, and was picked up and raised by the old lady Liu and her husband?"
"Is this true? How come I don't know about this? Liu Xiaoxi and Old Lady Liu look so similar, could they be mistaken?"
"That's right, they have already recognized each other. The Liu family is prosperous. I heard that children who are raised from childhood become more and more like themselves. The Liu family is an example. It's a pity for Lin Xueyao. If she were still here, she would have benefited from it."
"Liu Xiaoxi is a grateful person, unlike the second branch of the Qin family. They arranged jobs for Liu's brother and sister-in-law, and even said they would take the whole family to live in the city. Alas, other people's lives are our dreams."
"Bullshit, Granny Qin is the enemy who killed the second wife's husband and mother. You should be worrying about you. Will they still accept mountain products in the future? If not, you fence-sitters will be in trouble."
"You deserve it. You've been swayed and offended by the Gu family. If you want to make money, just sell it to the commune's purchasing station."
“…”
Old Lady Liu was enjoying the show and walked to the Qin family's door proudly. "Lin Xueyao is such a useless bitch. My daughter is really capable. She coaxed Madam Wei into giving her money and a job. You, the second branch of the Qin family, don't deserve to be rich and noble. You are only fit to live in a corner."
Qin Wanqing gritted her teeth angrily, "Liu Xiaoxi pretended to be my mother, aren't you afraid that you will be exposed one day?"
Old Lady Liu felt that the recognition of her relationship was a done deal, and she didn't even take Qin Wanqing's siblings seriously. "I'm pretending to be your mother, so why don't you go to Madam Wei and tell me? I advise you to give up. Madam Wei has been fooled by my daughter and she only knows that you are the trouble that bullied my daughter. She hates you so much!"
"My grandchildren have replaced you as Madam Wei's darlings. They eat and drink delicious food every day, and Madam Wei has to take them with her wherever she goes. You are doomed unless Lin Xueyao can survive."
"Otherwise, you can only watch my Liu family climb higher and higher. In a few days, we will move to Shanghai and become the upper class."
"My Liu family will replace the Wei family, take charge, and become a wealthy family in Shanghai, hahahaha..."
After saying this, Old Lady Liu held her head high and left the Qin family with a swagger, attracting the attention of the villagers along the way.
Seeing this, Granny Qin asked flatteringly, "Big sister, when are you free to continue collecting mountain products? My family has collected a lot, dozens of kilograms waiting to be sold!"
"Sell your ass, I'm rich now, my Liu family is destined to enjoy a good life, who wants to do this kind of dirty work that lowers your status? No, I won't hire you. What you earn in a day is not as much as what my daughter's biological mother gives you." Old Lady Liu looked down on Granny Qin with a contemptuous attitude of a noble lady, "If you want to find someone, go find the Ye family, it's them who don't want to hire you, not me. They are going back to the city, who cares if you live or die, just go and settle the score with them, it was Ye Zhiqing who promised you."
The fence-sitter villagers and the gossipy old women were so angry that they gritted their teeth and went in groups to seek revenge on Ye Youmeng. If she didn't give them a satisfactory explanation, they would make trouble every day.
Most of the fence-sitters truly regretted losing their long-term job with Sister Wan for that little bit of money. Now it is too late to go back to their former lover.
Ye Youmeng was so annoyed that she simply hid in the commune with her parents.
Lin Shiwei pushed the blame for all this onto the Gu brothers and sisters, and said all kinds of bad things about the Gu family in front of Mrs. Wei.
Ke Qi called home to find out what was going on. His family just urged them to get married as soon as possible. The reason was simple: the Wei family had connections with a special department and were more powerful than the mayor.
The Wei brothers were fed up with Liu Xiaoxi and her two sons. They were too talkative, asking for this and that, and were extremely greedy. But their biological mother indulged them and tried desperately to make amends with them. The two brothers couldn't stand it anymore and had to go out to relax.
Gu Wanwan knew that Qin Wanqing and her brother were very angry, so she took them to the commune to relax, and seemed to pass by the brothers not far away intentionally or unintentionally.
