"Are we just going to accept this defeat? Just let it go like this?" He Wenjun was very unhappy.
"Otherwise what? Life isn't a wish-fulfillment novel. We're just ordinary people. Right now, we can't even accurately determine who framed us, so how can we fight back? If we become powerful enough, we could spend 100,000 or 200,000 to bribe those two people and find out who harmed us. But where are we going to get that much money? So let's work hard and make money now. A gentleman takes revenge even after ten years. When we become rich in the future, with capital to pave the way, dealing with those villains behind our backs will be a piece of cake."
After He Wenlin finished speaking, Old Mrs. He said, "You should all listen to Linlin. If we make our lives prosperous and run this shop even better, that will be the cruelest revenge against the villains who plotted against us behind our backs!"
"Alright, everyone get to work. We can't delay the lunch service."
After He Wenlin finished speaking, everyone returned to their original work positions.
Grandma He quietly asked He Wenlin, "Did you just go out to deposit money?"
He Wenlin didn't deny it and smiled, "Grandma, you have such sharp eyes."
Grandma He said proudly, "I've been taking care of you since you were one year old. I can tell what kind of poop you've made just by the way you stick your butt out. Did you sell those discount coupons?"
“We did sell some, and that’s the amount of money we’ve brought back.” He Wenlin held out her hand to Old Lady He.
Old Mrs. He's cloudy eyes widened, and she stammered, "Five...five thousand?"
"Yes, if there's a suitable house, I'm planning to buy it. Then I'll transfer my household registration here, and my younger brother and I can stay here to study and take the college entrance exam."
Grandma He's heart pounded. Five thousand!
With what she had saved before, her granddaughter now had more than 10,000 yuan.
A millionaire!
Her granddaughter is amazing!
The old lady couldn't suppress the excitement in her eyes.
She whispered reproachfully, "With so much money, you went to the bank all by yourself. Aren't you afraid of running into bad people?"
"It's because there are many people in my family. Besides, in broad daylight, who would expect a child like me to have so much money on me?"
"Next time, secretly call me, and I'll go with you."
"Okay, I'll invite you next time."
"Mom, what's making you so happy?" Mr. He asked when he returned home and saw his mother and stern-faced daughter smiling from ear to ear.
Upon seeing Mr. He, Mrs. He snorted coldly: "Hmph, you've been buying a plastic bucket for so long, I thought you went to manufacture plastic buckets!"
"I went and bought two watermelons. Isn't that what that incorruptible person likes to eat?"
Grandma He almost laughed when she heard this, but she held it in. She knew that her good-for-nothing son needed to be taught a lesson.
He Wenlin pretended not to hear; the "enemy" shouldn't try to corrupt her with sweet talk!
He Wenlin buried herself in her work.
It's already 10 o'clock.
We have a lot of orders this noon, so we can't afford to delay any longer.
She also asked her second brother and Lin Fei to learn from her.
Mr. He felt very uncomfortable.
In the afternoon, after delivering dinner and distributing the meals, when everyone sat down to eat together, Grandma He brought up the matter of the Industry and Commerce Bureau coming to her door that day.
Upon hearing this, Mr. He stood up excitedly, "Mom, why are you only telling me now about something this big?"
"What good would it have done to tell you sooner?" Old Mrs. He said. "You only came back after the matter was resolved. Today, thanks to Aizhen's boss, things definitely wouldn't have gone so smoothly if she hadn't spoken up for us."
"This must have been done by He Xing's side! Their business is bad and their skills are poor, so they come up with this kind of dirty trick to harm us. They are really despicable!" He's mother was so angry that she couldn't eat her meal.
Mr. He threw down his bowl and chopsticks: "I'm going to find him!"
Grandma He quickly stopped him: "It's not necessarily their family that did it. That workshop director, Li Bing, is also a big suspect. Besides, fighting won't do any good. I'm telling you this so you won't go and fight with them. I want you to go and thank Aizhen's boss properly."
"Then I'll go buy a fruit basket later," said Aunt He.
“I’ll go buy it. I’m the owner of this shop. I’ll prepare the thank-you gift,” He Wenlin said.
Aunt He: "What do you, a little kid, know about buying things?"
"What's wrong with kids? Kids are no less capable than you adults!" Grandma He said seriously. "Don't think you're better just because you're adults. Linlin is the most capable! She said that if others felt unfairly treated, they would report her, and someone actually did. Although the shop owner spoke up for her today, Linlin also showed them her business license. Otherwise, things wouldn't have been resolved so quickly and easily. If others want to help us, we can't be too incompetent ourselves. Otherwise, how can they help us? She's been saying she's going to get the license for a while now, but none of you wanted to go. From now on, you should all listen to Linlin. She's smarter than any of us!"
Mr. He remained silent this time, for his stern-faced daughter had hit the nail on the head.
The younger children in the family all listen to He Wenlin and trust her completely. However, He's parents think they are adults and that they have more experience than she has, so they often don't listen to her.
As the eldest member of the family, Old Mrs. He naturally had to give the couple a nudge from time to time.
After dinner, Grandma and the others finished up at the shop, while He Wenlin went to buy a gift for the shop owner.
"What are you planning to buy?" Mr. and Mrs. He asked in unison.
"Cigarettes and alcohol."
This is the standard way to give gifts.
“I’ll go with you,” Mr. He said.
"I can go by myself."
