There might be trouble.
But Yu Bai couldn't possibly refuse this money.
This is what her father paid for with his life!
Yu Bai's fingertips clenched the old passbook, his face calm, but in his heart he was on high alert against Yu Dongshun's actions.
After all, a dog will always eat shit.
She didn't trust the Yu family, a group of greedy and mean jackals.
Yu Bai's mind raced as he glanced at the cell phones held high outside the courtyard wall.
no!
The money must be taken in a legitimate way.
Public opinion must be won beautifully!
That's how the Internet is. When you are weak, everyone will pity you.
But once you climb out of the quagmire, the sympathy of the past may turn into poisonous arrows of jealousy.
Today's sympathy is based on the "misery" of her and her brothers and sisters.
Once the full amount of compensation, which symbolizes a "huge sum of money", is received, her family will no longer be a weak group that deserves sympathy, but a wealthy family that has "become rich overnight".
People don’t care that the money originally belonged to her father, nor do they care about her family’s past sufferings. They just think that she has “made enough.”
What’s even worse is that Zhou Fengxia made an appointment with the agent to sign a house purchase contract today!
At this critical moment, if someone saw...
It's very likely to be noticed and dug up by someone with ulterior motives, and it's inevitable that it will involve antique transactions...
This is absolutely not possible!
My thoughts turn around in a flash.
Yu Bai's expression had changed, his eyes were red, and the corners of his mouth were pursed.
"Second Uncle, I can't take all this money."
When these words were spoken, not only Yu Dongshun was stunned, but even the villagers who were craning their necks to watch the excitement, as well as the cameras, seemed to have pressed the pause button.
Yu Bai raised his hand to gather a handful of hair, his voice low and hoarse:
"I won't go into the details of the exact amount of compensation. I only want one million, as a token of my father's legacy to us."
She paused, her eyes swept across Yu Dongshun's astonished face, and finally fell on the passbook.
"You can take the rest and take care of grandpa and grandma until they die. After all, they are old and need someone to take care of them."
This is an extremely "filial" and "generous" statement.
Without waiting for Yu Dongshun to respond, Yu Bai sniffed and continued, his voice filled with worry about the future and helplessness about reality:
"Second uncle, you also know that my eldest brother, second brother, third brother, fourth brother..."
"They are not young anymore. Because their family is poor, they don't even have a decent place to live, let alone a marriage..."
"I'll use this one million to help my brothers with a down payment so they can have their own place to live and get married in the future."
"If there's any money left, I want to open a small shop in town for my mother. She's worked hard for most of her life, and she'll have someone to rely on for the rest of her life, so she doesn't have to rely on others for her livelihood."
Yu Bai's voice was not loud, but every word was clear.
Moreover, these words are sincere and flawless, and very wise:
First, she was not a greedy person. She only asked for half of the compensation and was "filial" enough to leave some pension money for her grandparents, thus shutting up others from accusing her of being unfilial.
Second, she took the money to help her brothers, who were in great difficulty, get married and to provide for her mother's retirement. This was reasonable and touching.
Third, one million may sound like a lot, but if you need to buy a few houses for down payment and then open a store, with more people to share the cost, it’s actually just like “water passing through the ground, leaving only a sound.”
The effect of this combination of punches was immediate.
There was silence inside and outside the courtyard.
The hatred towards the rich that had quietly grown because of a "huge sum of money" was instantly dissipated.
This scene was eagerly sent to major platforms by neighbors holding their mobile phones.
Sure enough, not long after—
"#Yu's niece repays evil with kindness#"
"#I only took half of the million-dollar compensation to buy a house for my brother and provide for my mother's retirement#"
“#This is a real family#”
Related entries soared to the top of the trending search lists on major social media platforms as if they had wings.
The comments section was almost unanimous in praising Yu Bai for being sensible, sensible, kind-hearted, and responsible.
Public opinion completely turned to her side.
