Chapter 79: A droopy face



It has only been more than half a year, less than a year, since Jiang Mei quit her job and became a self-employed individual.

Jiang Mei has already earned more than 10,000 yuan.

In other words, she made a fortune quietly and Jiang Mei had no intention of showing off. She just bought a new TV at home during the Chinese New Year.

I bought a Panda color TV. Color TVs are more expensive than black and white TVs.

Jiang Mei chose to spend a high price to buy a color TV, mainly to watch clothing-related styles and so on.

If it is black and white, then she can only see the basic style. If it is a color TV, she can also clearly see the color combination chosen by the designer.

Of course, neither of them told anyone else about the color TV they bought for their home.

They themselves didn't show off outside, nor did they specifically tell their daughter not to fool around outside, but Qi Yunyi really didn't fool around.

After all, what's so rare about a color TV?

Well, it was very rare, but she had seen more advanced ones, so she didn't find it too surprising. Of course, she didn't have the show-off mentality of a child, wishing that the whole world would know that she had a color TV at home that could play colorful cartoons.

The outside world's impression of Qi Aiguo is still that Jiang Mei and Qi Aiguo borrow money everywhere, and Qi Aiguo indulges his wife in squandering the family's money. Sooner or later, this family will be ruined by Jiang Mei, the spendthrift woman.

Jiang Mei had already repaid all the money she had borrowed, but she just didn't spread the word.

People who can help others in times of difficulty are obviously good people and will not talk nonsense.

So, Jiang Mei made a fortune secretly without anyone knowing.

After hearing Qi Aiguo's words, Jiang Mei reflected on herself and felt that her vision had not kept up with the development. It was also true that it was necessary to cultivate children's awareness of money from an early age.

Especially when Jiang Mei thought that she only had this one daughter and she could make money, she would definitely gain the same status and position as the wealthy businessmen she had seen in the investment promotion.

By then, how many people would target his daughter for this inheritance?

No, this child's awareness of money must be cultivated from an early age.

The next day, Qi Yunyi, with a gloomy face, called Jiang Mei to the room to talk alone.

Qi Yunyi folded her hands: "What?"

"Qi Yunyi, do you think your attitude is right?"

"wrong!"

"No, you're so loud. Do you want to be beaten?"

"In no mood."

“…”

Even Jiang Mei couldn't do this. You don't want to do it, but you yell so loudly. You know you are wrong, but you still do this. What do you want to do?

Qi Yunyi also felt that this was not a good idea.

In this simple era, a few cents was enough to get a meal together, and the salary of an ordinary worker was only fifty or sixty.

But she tried to ask for several hundred more, which is equivalent to an adult's salary for several months without food or drink. Is she thinking that her family owns a mine?

Qi Yunyi realized that she was wrong and corrected her mistake. She went up to Jiang Mei and shook her arm:

"Mom, Yi Yi was wrong. She shouldn't have looked so downcast just because you didn't give her money. It's not nice. And you're right. Children shouldn't carry so much money. If bad people see it, they'll steal it."

Jiang Mei hadn't come here to accuse Qi Yunyi. Qi Yunyi admitted her mistake so quickly that Jiang Mei's expression brightened up. She then hugged her on her lap and said to her:

"Mom used to think that since you're a child, this amount of money is too much for you to spend as you please.

But mom thought about it carefully and realized that our family’s conditions are better now than before.

Although this money is still a large sum, if you accidentally lose it, it won't be so heartbroken that your whole family won't be able to sleep.

So, my mother thought it would be better to give the money to Yi Yi to use on her own.

Yi Yi, do you think you can manage not to spend money recklessly, not to lose money, and not to be extravagant? Instead, you can use every penny in the most appropriate place.

For example, you have a very good study attitude today and you have learned everything the teacher taught. You feel great about yourself, so you reward yourself with something delicious today.

Or, treat your classmates to some snacks.

Otherwise, use the money to buy the stationery you need.

And I can keep a record of every expense and give the account book to my mother every week, so that she can feel at ease?"

Qi Yunyi listened carefully, then nodded heavily: "I can."

Jiang Mei's smile grew wider.

She handed the 750 yuan that Zhang Jianye gave her and a handful of banknotes to Qi Yunyi.

Qi Yunyi took the banknotes. She was obviously a childish person, but at this moment, she was smiling like a big flower.

Qi Yunyi, smiling like a big flower, threw herself into Jiang Mei's arms, hugged Jiang Mei's neck and put her face close to hers: "Yi Yi's mother is the best mother in the world, no doubt about it."

Now, Jiang Mei's face was also smiling as big as a flower.

Who doesn’t love this kind of little cotton jacket?

Jiang Mei felt so sweet in her heart and was flattered by her little friend's flattery that she completely forgot that she made the decision based on Qi Aiguo's words.

So, in the evening, Qi Aiguo watched Xiao Mian'ao being affectionate with her mother again, and it was so cheesy between the mother and daughter.

Qi Aiguo: ...

“Ahem…”

He coughed.

As soon as he coughed, Jiang Mei immediately remembered that she had forgotten to tell her daughter that she could use the money herself, and her father had contributed to this.

Jiang Mei felt a little guilty and looked away.

Qi Aiguo: ...

Doesn't this mention his contribution?

Mei Zi, you are actually this kind of person. You have changed. I am so heartbroken that I can hardly breathe.

Jiang Mei: ...

His eyes were evasive, looking at the sofa, the door, the floor, and the ceiling. Anyway, he just didn't follow the patriotic trend.

It was Qi Yunyi who heard the cough and hurried to Qi Aiguo, then held his face and observed it carefully.

It doesn't look like he's sick.

She remembered that when she was an adult, her father seemed to have lung cancer.

After being laid off, the female supporting character's father smoked all day to relieve his boredom. Later, he became addicted and smoked more and more every day. In the end, he damaged his lungs.

For some reason, when Qi Yunyi thought of this, her heart suddenly ached. She was so sad that tears welled up in her eyes as she looked at the younger version of Comrade Qi.

Comrade Lao Qi at this moment had thick hair, a rosy complexion, and lips that were a normal color instead of purple. His eyes were bright and he looked full of energy and vigor.

With his thick eyebrows and big eyes, he is simply a super handsome guy of this era.

But later he will become a skinny old man who is crushed by the burden of life.

The more Qi Yunyi thought about it, the sadder she felt, and tears suddenly fell from her eyes.

Qi Aiguo was just childishly trying to compete with his lover for his daughter's attention and favor, but he never thought of making his daughter cry.
