Ever since he embarrassed himself at his last birthday party, Jiang Yu no longer likes Yun Yao, his own daughter.

Hearing Yun Yao making up bad things about her adopted daughter, she angrily scolded, "If you have time to worry about others, you might as well do two more papers!

Your family has spent so much effort to send you to No. 3 Middle School. If you still can't learn well, you might as well go home early to avoid embarrassing your father."

Yun Huan on the side gloated, "Sister, I heard that your No. 3 Middle School will take the unified exam with Nanming. Don't let it happen that you can't even pass Yun Mo. That would be funny."

Jiang Yu frowned, "Is this true? When will the unified examination be held?"

Yun Yao replied: "At the end of the month."

Jiang Yu immediately became serious, "Xiaoyao, I'm telling you, you must pass Yunmo in this unified exam. From today on, you will study for an extra hour every night. Do you hear me?"

Yun Yao's face darkened.

She basically has to study until 11:30 every night and get up at 6:00 in the morning. She is already sleep-deprived. If she adds another hour to that, wouldn’t that be the end of her?

"Xiaoyao, did you hear what I said to you?"

Yun Yao suppressed her annoyance and answered obediently, "I heard you, Mom. I will work hard and will not be inferior to Xiao Mo."

Jiang Yu felt a little relieved after hearing this, but when he turned around and saw his second daughter trying to hold back her laughter, he immediately lost his temper again.

"How dare you laugh like that? Your homeroom teacher called me a few days ago and said that your grades have dropped drastically. You'll be like your sister, and you'll have to do an extra hour of homework every night from now on."

"Ah, no! I'm only in the second year of junior high school, it's still a long way to go before the college entrance examination."

"If you don't have a solid foundation, do you think it will be easy when you enter high school? You can't say no. I will personally supervise you from now on. You are not allowed to go to bed until you finish your work."

Yun Huan wailed in dissatisfaction, "Ah, what about Xiao Cong? Why didn't he join?"

"Xiao Cong ranked fifth in the class in the final exam last semester. How can you compare with him?"

After that, Jiang Yu said to her son in a gentle tone: "Xiao Cong, you are growing up now. Go to bed early after finishing your homework at night. Remember to drink milk before going to bed so that you can grow taller."

Yun Cong nodded happily, "Got it, Mom."

Yun Huan, who was standing aside, felt both depressed and envious.

Although Yun Yao lowered her head and ate quietly, her eyes were full of gloom.

These days, Yun Mo has been thinking about the fact that Yun Yao bought a fake jade bracelet.

Young girls cannot afford to wear top-quality jadeite like emerald, and it is usually worn by middle-aged women or elders.

Yun Yao wouldn't be stupid enough to give fake goods to her elders. Considering the fact that Yun Yao was short of money, Yun Mo had some vague guesses in her mind.

After school that day, she bought a pack of good cigarettes and went to find Liu Laowu, asking him to help her find out about emerald bracelets in the jade market.

A few days later, Liu Laowu sent her a message.

A gangster in the underground black market bought an emerald jade bracelet for 12,000 yuan the day before yesterday, and then sold it to a rich lady for 30,000 yuan.

After hearing the news, Yun Mo asked Liu Laowu to continue helping to find out the identity of the person who bought the bracelet.

People like Liu Laowu know all kinds of people and are very well-informed. It didn't take him much effort to find out the identity of the rich lady.

The buyer is Mrs. Yuan.

The Yuan family is in the coal mining business and has a lot of wealth. They are one of the richest people in Jiang City.

After learning the news, Yun Mo vaguely guessed that Yun Yao must be short of money, so she did this to replace the original with the fake.

Thinking of this, Yun Mo suddenly began to look forward to what Jiang Yu's reaction would be when he found out that his own daughter had cheated on him.

People feel refreshed when happy things happen.

Li Li has been in a very good mood recently. Even her walking seems to be very brisk, causing the neighbors to tease her.

"Hey, Li Li, have you been picking up money recently? You seem to be smiling so much every day."

"It's OK, I just made a small profit."

The old street is not a big deal, and any news will spread quickly. Everyone has heard that the Lingchuan brothers quit their jobs at the construction site to do business, but the two brothers are tight-lipped, so no one knows what they are doing specifically.

When the neighbors heard Li Li say that she had made money, they all became interested.

"Li Li, did your husband make a fortune doing business with Chuan Zi?"

"Of course not. I earned that much in just a few days."

Seeing Li Li making a three sign, the neighbor asked in surprise, "30?"

Li Li rolled her eyes in contempt. "What are you thinking? What's so strange about 30 yuan? You make it sound like I've never seen money before."

"How much did you earn? It can't be 300, right?"

Li Li was so proud, "It's true. Chuanzi came back that day just to give me money, a full 300 yuan."

"hiss……"

"Oh my god, I made 300 in just a few days!?"

The neighbors' expressions changed from surprise to astonishment, and they looked at Li Li with envy and passion in their eyes.

Li Li's vanity was greatly satisfied, and even her back straightened a little.

"Li, what kind of business do your Lao Ling and Chuan Zi run? How do they make so much money?"

"I'm not sure about that. I'm a woman and I don't care about what their men do outside."

Li Li was unwilling to tell the truth not because she was cautious, but because she was worried that once everyone knew about this way to make money, they would all try to do it.

Such a good way to make money, she would never let others take it.

Soon, the news that the Ling brothers had made a fortune in business spread in the alley, causing many people to come to Ling Jiang to inquire about what business they were doing.

After sending the inquiring people away, Ling Jiang turned around and got angry at his wife.

"You, why are you showing off outside for no reason? You are afraid that others don't know that we are speculating and profiteering. You don't want to live a good life, right?"

After being scolded by her husband, Li Li still felt guilty, but she refused to admit defeat.

"What's wrong with me? Was I wrong to say that you guys made money? I didn't tell anyone about your reselling of electronic watches, so what's there to be afraid of?!"

Ling Jiang pointed at her, so angry that he didn't know what to say.

"Just show off. When Chuanzi and I get into trouble, you'll be satisfied!"

Li Li pouted impatiently, "Alright, I won't tell anyone about this anymore, okay? I really don't know what you're afraid of. We haven't done anything illegal, so what if others find out? There are so many people doing this outside now, can the government control them?"
