Tiger looked at the will and money in Zhao Shunqiang's hand with immense pride.
Zhao Xiufen gave a thumbs up: "Tiger, you're really amazing! If it weren't for you, none of us would have thought of this method."
Zhao Xiujuan asked with some doubt: "How could you be so sure he would pay to take the person away?"
"No need to calculate!"
Tiger chuckled and said, "If he pays us, we'll make a big profit. If he doesn't pay us, we can rely on my grandpa to get money from my aunt. A steady stream of income is not bad either."
"We'll profit no matter what!"
He was certain that Li Weidong wouldn't stand idly by and do nothing for the old man, so here he is, delivering money to him!
He then took the money, saying, "This idea came from me. My family doesn't have a house either, and you're all married out, so houses and land are useless to you. These will belong to my family."
"As for the money, you each get three thousand, and I'll keep four thousand. No objections, right?"
Zhao Xiujuan was about to object instinctively, but Zhao Xiufen quickly nodded: "No objection, no objection, Tiger, you decide!"
Anyway, the idea was definitely Tiger's. That kid is a troublemaker. If you anger him, you probably won't even get three thousand yuan.
Most importantly, three thousand yuan is already a lot, plus the money that the old man squeezed out of Zhao Xiulian during this period, it is not a small amount.
That's already a great deal.
Zhao Xiujuan realized what was happening and nodded in agreement.
Tiger proudly distributed the money to them, snorting, "Li Weidong, Li Weidong, I finally beat you once."
Just you wait and see!
This is just the first step.
Now that he has successfully caught the eye of Master Hei, he is determined to make Li Weidong suffer to death!
Zhao Xiufen and Zhao Xiujuan were overjoyed when they received the money.
Just then, Zhao Xiufen suddenly frowned: "Wait, I remember Dad still had a few silver dollars. I forgot to check just now. Could it be that he took them and passed them on to Li Weidong?!"
"Yuan Datou?"
Tiger was taken aback, then sneered, "That thing isn't worth much. Even if it's an antique, it's only worth a few hundred yuan at most. We'll just give it away. Who cares!"
Zhao Xiujuan laughed too: "Sister, are you confused? What use are a few silver dollars? We received three thousand yuan! Adding the money we squeezed from Dad a while ago, it's almost five thousand. Let the few silver dollars go!"
Items worth several hundred yuan have already been taken away. If we go back to ask for them back, we might end up arguing.
When word gets out, people will talk behind our backs.
Zhao Xiufen realized what she meant and nodded, saying, "I was overthinking it. Anyway, it's not worth much, so forget it."
Then she became smug again: "Big brother, second sister, we're rich now, how about we go to town and eat out, let's splurge for once?"
Zhao Shunqiang immediately nodded in agreement, and the group of people went into the city triumphantly.
...
Let's talk about Li Weidong.
He and Zhao Xiulian picked up the old man and went straight to the city, where they gave him a full physical examination.
While waiting for the results, the old man looked worried and said, "Why would I need to spend this money?"
"Grandpa, your health is so poor, you should get a checkup to see if there's anything wrong, so Mom and I can feel at ease."
Li Weidong advised, "As for money, I've already told you not to worry about it. Your grandson can earn money!"
Zhao Xiulian comforted him, "Dad, you know Kongfu Family Wine, right? It's distributed by Weidong."
"He's very rich now, so don't worry, just stay with us and relax."
The old man was taken aback: "Kongfu Family Wine...that wine that was on TV?"
Li Weidong nodded: "Yes, that's it. Right now, all the Kongfujia liquor in the entire Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai region is produced by me, so I have plenty of money."
The old man was both surprised and delighted, and he held Li Weidong's hand repeatedly, saying, "Good, good, good boy, you've got potential!"
As she spoke, she wiped away her tears again: "Xiulian, you raised a good son! Your older brother and his gang are a bunch of ingrates, they eat people without spitting out the bones."
"I'm still worried about my worthless life; who knows when it might end..."
"Pah! Pah! Pah! Don't say such unlucky things!"
Li Weidong quickly replied, "Grandpa, you must live to be a hundred years old and watch me get married and have children!"
The old man was amused and, wiping away his tears, said, "Alright, I'll take care of the child for you then!"
Amidst the laughter and conversation, the test results came out.
"The old man's health is very poor!"
The doctor frowned: "He already has diabetes, and it looks like he's stopped taking his medication. He also has severe malnutrition..."
At this point, he looked at Li Weidong suspiciously: "Young man, having an elder in the family is like having a treasure. Abusing the elderly is a crime punishable by lightning."
Before Li Weidong could speak, the old man preemptively offered an explanation.
The doctor's expression softened a bit, and he prescribed a whole bunch of supplements and medicines, while also giving a lot of instructions.
It was already late afternoon when I left the hospital.
Li Weidong drove his tricycle back to the village, but instead of going home, he went to the new house first.
"Grandpa, look, this is our new house."
He explained, "Once the renovations are finished, we'll move in. We'll give you the biggest room then! And we'll have a carpenter make you a recliner."
"From now on, you can lie in the yard and sunbathe."
The old man looked at the new house with great satisfaction: "This house is well-built, very impressive!"
Zhao Xiulian said, "That's right, and this land is even a blessed land!"
Then he told me about how he found a jar of silver dollars when he was digging the foundation.
He sighed again, "If it weren't for that damned Tiger reporting us, we'd have a few silver dollars at home by now."
Although I'm not after that much money, it's still an antique, so it's good to keep it as a family heirloom!
"Silver dollars..."
The old man paused for a moment, then suddenly said mysteriously, "Weidong, let's go home first. I have something to give you."
Li Weidong was completely bewildered and took the old man home.
Once inside the house, the old man picked up a worn-out cotton-padded coat, carefully unpacked the inner lining, and took out a floral cloth bag.
Zhao Xiulian asked curiously, "What is it that's so precious?"
As the old man unpacked the cloth bag, he said, "This is your mother's dowry. When she passed away, I was thinking of giving it to you, but she told me to keep it for myself."
"Now I see them for who they really are. We definitely can't give these things to those ungrateful wretches."
"Xiulian, your mother's dowry is left to you."
As they were talking, the bag was opened, and the old man took out several pieces of copper jewelry and two silver bracelets.
Finally, he took out a few silver dollars and placed them on the table: "These are all for you."
Li Weidong was stunned: "Isn't that Yuan Shikai silver dollar?!"
"Grandpa, how did you get this thing?"
At this point, he suddenly remembered his mother coin, and his eyes lit up: "Grandpa, these Yuan Shikai silver dollars of yours have been a great help to me!"
