Chapter 143 Can You Offer 300 Yuan?
Lei Juan loves Xia Xian, but she tries hard to be fair and loves all her children, so sometimes she ends up being unfair.
Xia Xian, Lei Juan and Xia Yuan went back to the room to chat. Lei Juan and Xia Yuan were very curious about how much red envelope Xia Xian had just received.
"Sister, open it and see how much money is there. My brother-in-law's family is so rich. I wish I could be as rich as them someday. Then I can buy you lots of things!"
Xia Yuan was both envious and excited, and began to paint a rosy picture for the two of them.
"Come on, if you don't even want to study, how are you going to make a lot of money in the future?"
Xia Xian was so disappointed that she flicked his head.
"Have you gotten into trouble at home recently?"
While opening the red envelope and counting the money, Xia Xian casually asked him about his recent situation.
"I haven't gotten into any trouble. Sister, you've asked me so many times, am I the kind of person who would lie? If I had gotten into trouble, I would definitely tell you. I'm an honest man and I never lie!"
Xia Yuan patted his chest and assured, then said.
"I'm not as smart as my sister and brother-in-law to be admitted to such a good university. I'm lucky to have graduated from high school. It's not like you can only make money by studying, right? I couldn't even get into university before. Look at my brother-in-law, he didn't go to university, but he's so rich."
"Sister, let me tell you, people can make a lot of money by selling things on the black market. My classmate's father does this. My classmate secretly told me that he also sells things on the black market and said it's very exciting. He will take me to do it with him in the future and we can make money together! You just wait and enjoy yourself!"
Xia Yuan has actually planned his future life. He is really a smart little kid.
But Xia Xian and Lei Juan frowned fiercely, and Lei Juan even slapped him on the mouth a few times.
"Don't talk nonsense. Going to the black market, be careful that you may earn money but not live to spend it! Just study hard. If you can't get into college, find a job in a factory. As long as you have a job and are not starving to death, you'll be fine."
Everyone knows that you can make money by selling things on the black market. The key is that you have to have the ability to get the goods, and you have to hold your life fast and be prepared to be caught and shot at any time.
It might even bring trouble to family members. Among those with families, how many people would dare to take the risk to do such a thing? Otherwise, why are things on the black market so expensive? Scarcity makes things valuable!
"Which classmate of yours told you this? If his father really went to the black market to do business, would he tell you this? Don't brag, right? If he is telling the truth, it might kill his father, so you can't say this anymore. Don't tell anyone. Do you hear me?"
Xia Xian put the money down, grabbed his shoulders and educated him seriously.
After all, Xia Yuan was still young and didn't quite understand the seriousness of these things. After Lei Juan and Xia Xian said so, he seemed to realize something and scratched his head and agreed.
"Oh, is it so dangerous? Then I won't go. Don't worry, sister. I won't say it anymore. I will definitely not cause any trouble for you!"
He patted his chest and promised again, blinking his eyes, looking very smart. In fact, he had never done anything out of the ordinary since he was a child. Why did his sister always worry that he would get into trouble? He was much more sensible than his two brothers, okay!
"Just be obedient."
"Your sister is promising. You should listen to her in the future."
Seeing that he understood, Lei Juan stopped talking and asked about Xia Xian again.
"How's it going? Have you finished counting the money? How much is it in total?"
Lei Juan kept looking at the money on the bed with shining eyes.
If Xia Xian hadn't married her, she would never have had the chance to come to Beijing, let alone live in such a beautiful courtyard.
Moreover, the Quan family attached great importance to Xia Xian and gave her a lot of money, so she felt relieved and naturally started to worry about her sons at home.
"There are five hundred and four in total. Each is one hundred and sixty-eight, which is also a lucky number."
I guess he thought one out of a hundred was too little, so he gave a few dozen more.
But giving more than one hundred yuan as a red envelope for changing the name is already very, very much. You should know that when the eldest and second brothers Xia got married, Lei Juan gave one yuan each to her two daughters-in-law as red envelopes for changing their names. This is a difference of more than a hundred times!
No wonder her eyes suddenly lit up, as she once again witnessed the strength of the Quan family.
"Wow! That's a lot!"
Five hundred dollars is enough to buy a job! It's really generous!
Even though Xia Yuan was a child, he knew that this was a lot of money, he hurriedly said.
"Sister, you should save this money and don't spend it. In the future, let your brother-in-law spend the money. Hehe. Anyway, you have money to rely on, so you can do anything. If your brother-in-law treats you badly in the future, you can just take the money and run away!"
He is quite clever.
"You are still so young, don't just grow smart without growing taller."
Xia Xian laughed so hard that she couldn't help but pull his hair again. Although he was young, he had a lot of things on his mind.
"If you only grow taller but not smarter, you are called a fool. If you grow smarter but not taller, you are called smart!"
He spoke in a very coherent way, which made both mother and daughter laugh. After they finished laughing, Lei Juan hesitated for a moment and then got to the point.
"You have quite a bit of money now, right? The money for changing your name plus the betrothal gift, plus the money you sold your job to your second sister-in-law before you came here, plus the money we gave you, you should have about 1,000 or 2,000 yuan. It's a lot of money. I see Ruifeng and the others treat you very well, so you shouldn't need to spend any money normally."
"Mom wants to tell you something. Please don't be angry. What does mom mean? Didn't your second sister-in-law give birth to a little nephew for you? She didn't have any credit but she worked hard. The child is still young and can't leave his biological mother. I know she is blackmailing you for money. It's her and your second brother who are wrong, but Chu Sheng and his mother did scare her. She is throwing a tantrum at home now, and her milk has dried up. Your nephew has no milk to drink and can only drink porridge soup. This is not a big deal."
"When your dad heard about this, he started shouting and calling for violence again, making the whole family in turmoil. Mom doesn't want to live a good life like this. Mom just wants our family to be well."
"Before I came, your second sister-in-law came to me and said that she wanted 10,000 yuan from you. That was just a joke, and you only needed to give her 1,000 yuan. But 1,000 yuan is a lot of money. I persuaded her earnestly, and finally she gave in and said 500 yuan would be fine."
"So, in order to stop the quarrels at home, Xiaoxian, can you give your second sister-in-law 300 yuan? Mom will give her the remaining 200 yuan privately, and don't let your dad know about this."
Although Lei Juan felt a little embarrassed, it was okay. After all, she didn't intend to let Xia Xian pay for it all. She only paid half of it. In addition, three hundred yuan was just a drop in the bucket for Xia Xian, so she felt that this request was not excessive.
But she didn't notice that after she finished speaking, Xia Xian's face suddenly darkened. She pursed her lips tightly and didn't know what to say.
She knew it! Her mother is soft-hearted! Whenever she sees someone rich, she wants the rich to subsidize the poor!
But when the children grow up and have their own families, it is impossible for them to share the money with their brothers and sisters. Why doesn’t she understand this truth?
Xia Xian's good mood disappeared in an instant. When she was still thinking about what to say so as not to make her mother sad, Xia Yuan, who was just a child, spoke without restraint and directly attacked his own mother!
"Mom! What nonsense are you talking about! When the second sister-in-law wants money, you ask the elder sister to give it to her. What about the elder sister-in-law? She also asks the elder sister to give it to me. If I roll on the ground again, the elder sister will give me money. Where does she get so much money?"
"She has the money, why should she give it to her? You were just worried that her parents-in-law would dislike her for getting up late, but why don't you think about whether her parents-in-law would dislike her for giving so much money?"
"Did your second sister-in-law eat your brain?"
Xia Yuan glared at her angrily, and for a moment, Lei Juan felt a little guilty.
"But····"
