Chapter 469 Jiang Lei Wants to Make a Huge Profit
"How is that possible? I clearly saw it was right below!"
How could it be that there is none?
【Did I just remember it wrong? 】
[I must have remembered it wrong. I got it mixed up when he paused. Ugh… forty dollars! Just gone like that…]
[Next time, you must not blink.]
He watched as the dealer counted out 275 yuan to the person who had just bet 55.
A huge profit of 220! All the bettors were envious, and even the onlookers were envious.
"Oh... look at your luck! You've earned so much in just a short time."
"They are smart, but we don't have that kind of brain."
"Who says it's not true? When he first came here, it was only five dollars. Now it has increased so many times, wow..."
Jiang Lei was extremely envious at this moment, and he really hated himself for being distracted just now, otherwise he might be able to make a huge profit like that person just now.
He wanted to make some money back with the one dollar he had, but the dealer didn't want to play anymore.
"I don't want to play anymore. I've lost all my money. I'll play tomorrow!"
Those who lost money all looked disappointed, and some even pulled him to stop them from leaving: "Will you still be here tomorrow?"
"Not here anymore. Bad luck here."
"Where are you going?"
"East Street!"
After saying that, he hurriedly packed up his stall and left.
The man who won all the banker's money counted the money in his hand twice before leaving with the money.
After Jiang Lei returned home, he was always thinking about making a huge profit. If he took more money tomorrow and invested steadily, he would definitely make a lot of money.
He doesn't expect to make much money, but at least he can get back the money he lost, right?
As I was thinking, I heard Zhou Yun coming back from get off work.
He quickly took the book and sat at the table pretending to be serious.
When Zhou Yun opened the door, he saw that his son was actually reading. He was a little surprised and a little relieved.
It seems that the child still listened to what I said yesterday.
As long as you study hard, you are still a good child.
"Leilei, are you hungry?"
Jiang Lei shook his head: "Not bad."
"What do you want to eat tonight?"
"Anything works!"
Zhou Yun was surprised to hear this answer.
Whenever we ask him whether he wants chicken legs, roujiamo, or beef noodles, he always says he wants chicken legs, roujiamo, or beef noodles.
Why are you so easy to talk to today?
Maybe it’s because I stayed at home all day and didn’t go out, so my appetite is not very good.
Zhou Yun thought about this and asked, "I'm going to go out and buy some steamed buns. Shall we have some stir-fried vegetables?"
Jiang Lei nodded obediently: "Okay!"
In fact, he had already eaten his fill. He bought instant noodles, braised beef, and spicy snacks, and he almost ate so much that he overflowed.
I'm not hungry at all now.
Zhou Yun, who was unaware of the situation, thought his son had changed his personality and was secretly delighted.
She went downstairs to buy some steamed buns and vegetables, came back to make egg noodle soup, stir-fried the vegetables, and the mother and son started eating.
Jiang Lei ate a few bites and stopped. He hated stir-fried vegetables the most, no matter what kind of vegetables they were.
Seeing that he hadn't eaten much, Zhou Yun asked with concern, "Why don't you eat anymore?"
Jiang Lei put down his chopsticks and said, "Not too hungry."
"Did you stay in the house all day and haven't digested it yet?"
Jiang Lei nodded quickly: "Yes, I can only eat but not move. I'm really not hungry, and I can't even eat the steamed buns."
Zhou Yun took the remaining steamed bun from his hand and said, "Then finish your soup and go read a book. Tell me if you're hungry tonight."
Jiang Lei nodded, held the bowl, drank it all in one gulp, then went to lie down on the bed with a book.
On the surface, he was reading a book, but in fact he was thinking about where to get more money so that he could make up for what he lost tomorrow.
He caught a glimpse of Zhou Yun's bag and had an idea.
At three o'clock in the morning, Jiang Lei sat up from the bed.
Zhou Yun rented a large single room. After Jiang Lei came, she moved a small bed into the room for Jiang Lei to sleep on.
There was a curtain between the two beds.
Jiang Lei's bed was next to Zhou Yun's dressing table, and Zhou Yun's bag was on the table.
Jiang Lei reached out, secretly took the bag, opened it, and started feeling around inside.
He was very careful, afraid that Zhou Yun would hear it.
After a while, he found the money.
There were more than 30 yuan in the bag, but he didn't dare take all of it for fear of being discovered. So he only took 15 yuan and put the bag back.
In the morning, Zhou Yun got up early as usual, prepared breakfast, lit the fire, said hello to Jiang Lei and went out.
Jiang Lei was asleep and hadn't woken up yet. He responded drowsily and continued to sleep.
Not long after Zhou Yun left, Jiang Lei sat up from the bed.
Without brushing his teeth, washing his face or eating, he put on his clothes, took the money and went straight to East Street.
He walked around East Street but didn't see the stall. Maybe he came too early, so he had to leave disappointed.
Passing by a pan-fried bun stall on the roadside, the aroma of the pan-fried buns overpoweringly penetrated Jiang Lei's nostrils. He held the money in his hand but was reluctant to buy anything.
He has to take his money and place a bet, it would be a waste to spend it on something like this.
Zhou Yun had prepared a meal for him at home, so it didn't matter what he ate.
I looked at the stall several times, and finally went home, resisting my craving.
Seeing the bland meal Zhou Yun made, he regretted that he should have bought two meat buns just now.
But now that I'm home, I'd better forget it.
I can only swallow the pig food made by my own mother and eat it first to fill my stomach.
At noon, Zhou Yun came back to make lunch for Jiang Lei. Passing by the vegetable market, he planned to buy some meat and make something delicious for Jiang Lei.
But when I was checking out, I found that more than ten yuan was missing.
"Huh? Where's the money? I clearly remember having more than thirty dollars in my pocket, how come there's only a dozen left?"
"Hiss... I didn't buy anything... Did I drop it?"
She would rather suspect that she lost the money than think that Jiang Lei would take her money.
After paying the bill and returning home, Jiang Lei was still reading.
She felt that her son had really changed and was moving in a positive direction.
Facts have proven that children should stay with their biological mothers; they will only become bad if they stay with their grandparents!
"Leilei, can mommy cook meat for you today?"
Jiang Lei replied obediently: "Okay... I'll eat whatever you make!"
Zhou Yun smiled with relief and asked him, "Do you prefer eating the food cooked by your mom or your grandma?"
The person who asks this question is overestimating his own abilities and has no idea of his own capabilities.
Xue Shuzhen has been cooking with this skill for decades. Her cooking is one of the best in the entire Shangyao Village.
Whenever she goes to any wedding or funeral in the village, she is usually the one who cooks, it just depends on whether she is willing to take on the job.
Compared with Xue Shuzhen's, the food Zhou Yun cooked was simply pig food!
The color is not good, and the taste is salty and has a slight bitter taste occasionally.
She just thought it was a problem with the ingredients and never doubted her cooking skills.
But in order to make her happy, Jiang Lei still said something against his will.
"I like the food my mother cooks. Everything she makes tastes good."
Zhou Yun was almost praised to the sky. She felt light all over and more excited about raising the child.
