Chapter 24 Persuading Family Members 1



"Girl... I haven't read as many books as you, and I feel like I have a wife and kids. Then I work hard for a few more years, build a big tiled house, that's my dream... Does that mean I'm unambitious?"

"Brother, I'm not saying your idea is unambitious. I want to tell you that you can't just look at what's in front of you; you should take a longer-term view."

For example, if you go to town to sell things today, what are your thoughts? Is the money earned quickly?

Qiao Xiaoshan thought about his income in town today. He sold vegetable pancakes and baskets. If he had taken more goods today... he couldn't even imagine how much he would have earned.

"Xiao Ni, I've decided that from now on I'll do whatever you ask me to do. I'll listen to you from now on. If you tell me to go east, I'll definitely not go west."

"Brother, just hearing that is enough. When we get back, please help me convince everyone. I already have a long-term goal in mind. Once we achieve it, our family's hardships will definitely come to an end, and we'll soon be out of poverty and rich."

Qiao Xiaoshan was filled with anticipation at the prospect of making a lot of money in the future. His eyes shone brightly. Everything his sister had done today had opened a new door for him; as long as he worked hard and had ideas, he could make a fortune.

Qiao Xiaoni touched the purse in her arms; whether she could convince her family depended entirely on this money...

Li Meihua had been sitting in the yard waiting for her daughter to come back. She hadn't even had a proper lunch. When she heard the sound of a bicycle bell in the distance, she rushed to the gate and saw her son carrying her daughter back. She quickly went to greet them.

Why are you back so late?

Qiao Xiaoni got off her bicycle first: "Mom, don't worry about all that for now. Let my brother and me come inside first. I have something to discuss with everyone."

This was the first time Li Meihua had seen her daughter with such a serious expression. She turned to her son and asked, "What's wrong with your sister?"

"Mom, don't worry about all that. Just get everyone together. Listening to my sister is definitely the right thing to do."

Li Meihua felt bewildered; the brother and sister seemed like completely different people. She followed them into the house.

Except for Qiao Dashan who went out to work, everyone else was at home, so Li Meihua called out and everyone gathered.

Qiao Xiaoni arranged for everyone to sit down and handed the candy she bought to Tao Chunfang. As soon as Qiao Manli received the candy, she became obedient and stared at the paper bag without blinking.

To appease her daughter, Tao Chunfang took out a piece of milk candy. She hadn't seen candy in a long time and was also craving it. She thought to herself, "My sister-in-law kept her promise and bought candy for the child. She's definitely different now."

Qiao Xiaoni opened her purse in front of everyone, revealing a thick wad of loose change.

After his initial shock, Qiao Haisheng asked, "Did you make all this money this morning? That's a lot! How did you make so much money?"

After realizing what had happened, Li Meihua started counting the money: "It's been so long since I've seen so much change."

"Money!...I want it..." Qiao Manli shouted, but Tao Chunfang covered her mouth, "Don't make a scene, didn't we already give you candy?"

Qiao Manli obediently nodded and agreed not to make a fuss anymore. She moved her hand away and continued eating candy, no longer demanding money.

In the child's mind, money can buy delicious food... No one paid much attention to what she said.
