Facing Ding Wei's confession, the aunt was obviously stunned for a moment.
Write a book?
make money?
Buy a house?
These three words have nothing to do with my poor and miserable eldest niece.
So even though Ding Wei had said it simply and clearly, it still took her a while to react.
At this moment, he slowly turned his head and stared at Ding Wei in disbelief.
Ding Wei felt a little guilty.
——My aunt has been fighting for a long time, and she has only now made up her mind to confess.
However, she doesn't regret it.
After all, I couldn't be sure whether my aunt's position was sound before. If I tell her parents about the money-making thing, I won't be able to get into college if she doesn't tell her about it in the future.
After all, she was so busy with work in her previous life, and she never had the chance to find an excuse to get away from the influence of her family.
…
The aunt didn't say anything for a while, but instead glanced at Xie Yan, who was standing at the side, and Zhou Haitao, who was obviously relieved.
The two men tensed up instantly.
The next moment, the aunt took Ding Wei's hand:
"Have you bought a house? Are housing prices in the Imperial City expensive?"
Ding Wei was stunned for a moment.
Because my aunt's reaction was obviously not what she expected.
But soon, she relaxed again.
"Fortunately, it depends on the location. Some places have not been developed yet and are quite cheap now. Some new buildings in the city center are more expensive."
"My house is next to Xie Yan's, and the price is about the same."
As for the specific amount, there is no need to explain it clearly to stimulate my aunt.
After all, the average housing price in Jiangzhou is only eight or nine hundred yuan now.
After she finished speaking, she looked at her aunt with anxious eyes and smiled humbly.
There is no way, people who lie just keep their heads down.
If her aunt scolds her, she will admit it.
…
The aunt smiled and nodded, her expression as peaceful as a Bodhisattva's.
But while he nodded, one hand was groping around the edge of the sofa, and his movements became more and more urgent.
Ding Wei’s scalp feels a little numb:
——I'm not afraid that my aunt will get angry and make noises to her, but I'm afraid that my aunt will hold her anger inside.
If you think about it from his perspective, you must be very angry too.
but.
But she couldn't help it... After all, her aunt had been good to her younger siblings for so many years, and Ding Wei really couldn't guarantee that she wouldn't tell her parents.
"Auntie, what are you looking for? I'll find it for you."
The aunt pushed her hand away with a smile, her face was kind, and her tone was kind.
"It's okay. I remember your uncle threw his belt on the sofa yesterday. I'll look for it."
…
Zhou Haitao, who was still watching blankly, suddenly felt his scalp numb, remembering the fear of being dominated by his aunt with a belt when he was rebellious in junior high school.
He jumped up: "Mom! Mom, calm down! This is none of my business!"
See his reaction? Xie Yan understood immediately? He was also trembling all over.
Ding Wei was also stunned, but she still had sense? Did she know that her aunt would not whip herself with a belt anyway? She quickly said:
"Auntie, don't blame brother Haitao? He also knew that it wasn't long before I asked him to hide it...Auntie? If you want to hit me, just hit me? It's all my fault, I'm too worried!"
"
She stopped in front of her aunt and lowered her head seriously.
The aunt had already dug out the half-old belt from the seam of the sofa, and now pushed Ding Wei away:
"Be good? We are a girl's family? You can't have any injuries on your body. I feel sorry for you."
My aunt still knows how to feel sorry for herself.
Ding Wei felt moved and relieved at the same time. She thought to herself:
If this continues, as long as I stop him seriously, my brother Haitao will definitely not suffer any physical abuse——
The thought hasn’t changed yet? Then I heard the aunt say softly:
"There is a feather duster in the big vase on the TV cabinet. Can you go get it? That's yours."
"Today, neither of you siblings can escape."
Ding Wei:……
…
Didn’t you expect? You can’t even escape.
How many years have you not been beaten since you became a member of society?
Ding Wei cried a lot in her heart? At this moment, she couldn't help but cast her weak eyes aside and said thank you.
Xie Xiuer quickly stepped forward and stood in front of Haitao's brother:
"Auntie? Weiwei said she knew it even without telling me. This is what I proposed - it has nothing to do with brother Haitao."
"We are a family. If you want to fight, I should fight too!"
Xie Yan knew that his aunt would never hit him under any circumstances.
Unexpectedly, the aunt could not even maintain a peaceful expression at this moment, and now she smiled ferociously:
"I can't spare you! Turn around and get beaten!"
Thanks:!!!
Why is everything that happened today not what I expected?
For Xie Xiuer, who has always been good at grasping and controlling details, this is simply unimaginable.
But if his girlfriend's biological aunt wants to beat him, he can only stand by. Who told them to act unethically?
He turned around obediently and decided to use his broad back to bear the pain of the belt for his brother, as a way of thanking the boy for protecting his girlfriend before.
…
Facing the belt that was pressing closer and closer, he was upright and unafraid:
"Auntie, what we did was wrong, you can beat us and scold us, this is what we should bear!"
He has such a manly character and his tough guy spirit is fully displayed.
Unexpectedly, the next moment, before the belt came, my butt was suddenly slapped three times.
Thanks:!!!
〣(oΔo)〣
…
Xie Yan turned around in horror and saw that the big, fluffy feather duster had been in the hands of his aunt.
Auntie held it as if she were holding her own magical weapon.
Now he smiled and asked him:
"Do you admit your mistake? Are you still hiding it?"
Xie Xiuer cried "Wow" in her heart.
As old as he is, he has never been spanked by anyone since he can remember.
Or use a feather duster.
It's so embarrassing, eh eh eh.
He said aggrievedly:
"Auntie, I admitted my mistake from the beginning...I will never hide it again..."
"Then why don't you just go away and just go on fooling around? Why is this young man so immature?"
The aunt scolded sharply.
Xie Yan, who had no spirit at all, felt aggrieved. He could only look sadly at his brother Haitao who was in disbelief, and then at his girlfriend who was also shocked. Now he stood aside with a wilted head.
…
Facing his biological mother who was pressing closer and closer, Haitao's brother instantly squatted down and held his head.
"Sister, please save me!"
Ding Wei subconsciously covered her butt.
——She can bear the pain of flesh and blood, but the feather duster...
The old aunt thought shyly: How old are you? It’s so embarrassing to be spanked by my aunt.
The helpless brother Haitao could only wait in silence.
Unexpectedly, after a while, a belt was thrown in front of him with a "snap" sound.
Brother Haitao breathed a sigh of relief, stood up quickly, and turned around in surprise: "Mom, I knew-"
Unexpectedly, the aunt let out a long sigh, stretched out her arm, and slapped his buttocks with a feather duster.
"Why are you so coy? Sit down and explain things clearly to me!"
Brother Haitao:......〒_〒
In the end, he didn't escape.
Ying.
…
My uncle just smoked a cigarette in the stairway, and when he came back, he found that the atmosphere in the room was not right.
He stared at the ground with wide eyes:
"My belt is fine, why did you just throw it away?"
But even though he said that, he refused to pick it up: "That's right, it's time to get a new one during the Chinese New Year."
After saying that, I looked at my aunt happily, her eyes full of expectation.
However, the aunt didn't care about the belt at all. Instead, she brought him into the topic with a loud voice:
"Come here quickly, Weiwei said she bought a house in the imperial capital!"
My uncle didn't react at all and walked over cheerfully: "Where is the Imperial Capital? Is it expensive? How about we buy a set for Haitao too."
He thought about it. The young man Xie Yan was right when he said it before. Haitao learned this, and there are more development opportunities in big cities.
There is no shortage of houses in Jiangzhou, because the company may have welfare housing in two years, and their family's savings are more than enough to buy one.
The aunt stared at him, so angry that she didn't want to speak.
…
Seeing that her uncle might also suffer the tragedy of being spanked in middle age, Ding Wei quickly stopped the incident and said quickly:
"Uncle, I'm sorry. I hid it from you before. In fact, I am not short of money in the emperor and I even bought a house."
It was done in one go, with very short sentences, for fear that the information in the middle would not be conveyed in time, and my aunt's anger would soar again.
My uncle was stunned:
"Ah this..."
He looked at his aunt and was speechless.
…
Seeing that the atmosphere in the room finally calmed down again, Ding Wei took a deep breath and then told her aunt:
"Auntie, I'm sorry. Actually, I have no money to buy some daily necessities as soon as school starts, so I can only find ways to make money by myself."
"My classmate became a tutor, but my teaching skills are not good..."
In fact, I don’t remember anything I learned from high school.
If the time of rebirth is before the college entrance examination, then it’s over, it’s better to do it again.
"After much thought, I wouldn't do anything else..."
Although he is engaged in accounting, but without a certificate, who would want to find a young person?
In this industry, experience is the most valuable.
It can be seen from this that if you want to be reborn and have a good life, studying science, engineering or literature will always be useful.
Things like finance, accounting and management... are not popular when traveling through time.
…
What Ding Wei said was as close to the facts as possible, but now that she heard it in her aunt's ears, she couldn't help but vent her anger a little and turned her focus back to Ding Haiyang and Bai Xiujuan:
"I knew your parents were unreliable. They didn't give you enough living expenses just after school started!"
Ah this.
Ding Wei was a little embarrassed.
"If you brought enough, I was given 600 at the beginning of school, but I may have spent a bit too much..."
To be honest, in 2005, 600 yuan a month for living expenses was quite normal, but there were a lot of things to buy in the first month of school, so it might be a little tight.
But that's not it.
On this point, Ding Wei is pragmatic.
"Ah."
The aunt has thoroughly implemented the various consequences of "disliking someone", and now looks down on Ding Wei's parents:
"Don't put money on their faces. Do they have no money to give you, or are they planning to pay for living expenses? The month you started school, I went to your house, and a new silk skirt your mother bought cost 400.
There are so many!”
…
Ding Wei was already numb.
Her hostility towards her family stems from two lifetimes of complicated entanglements and the foreseeable future.
But according to her values, when it comes to children, parents do not have to scrimp on food and clothing, but rather support their children well.
Bai Xiujuan and Ding Haiyang are people who really enjoy and cherish themselves. Unfortunately, the only thing they lack is love and responsibility for their children.
And for many things in the world, once you lose your sense of responsibility, no matter how good things are, they will eventually turn bad.
After all, responsibilities and obligations, as well as the corresponding rights, are complementary to each other and are indispensable.
The same applies to family relationships.
This can no longer be explained solely by the fate of mother and daughter.
…
But these are not important.
Ding Wei could only avoid this topic and continue talking.
"I'm very lucky. Although I had a few rejections at the beginning, I paid the royalties directly for the next book I wrote. Plus the living expenses you helped me get, I have enough money to buy a mobile phone."
"I have a good friend in my dormitory. He had a lot of unwanted cell phones at home, so he sold them to me at a cheap price."
"Later I wrote the second book, and my classmate sold me the second-hand notebooks she didn't use."
"I wrote quickly. When I wrote the third book, I made some money. I borrowed it from my classmates and was able to collect enough money for the down payment of the house."
Thinking about it, in just one and a half years, she had accomplished something that she had not accomplished for many years in her previous life. In summary, Ding Wei felt a little proud.
She thought this, and looked at Xie Yan with a smile, and found that the other party was also listening to her story carefully.
Even though he was already familiar with Ding Wei's life trajectory.
…
Unexpectedly, my aunt's focus is always different from others.
"I'm just saying that it's too bad that my parents are irresponsible. Our Weiwei is so good, went to such a good school, and is so capable. He still picks and chooses Soso every day, because your second aunt, me, and your uncle didn't give it away.
"Young Master, I specified that I would give you a college education, and she would rather lose in a game of cards than give it to you."
He said that his eyes were slightly red, and he looked at his eldest niece with distress.
"The poor young girl can only use other people's second-hand products in order to save money..."
My aunt has quite a lot of experience in raising sons, but she knows how strong the self-esteem of young people is. When Zhou Haitao was in elementary school, he would simply make noodles. He was not as good as others in a hurry, and he would also get sulky.
Not to mention that such a big girl uses things that others don’t want.
Don’t big girls have any shame?
He thought about his own youth, which was so oppressed and dull.
I couldn't help but feel even more distressed.
…
It’s not necessary, aunt.
Ding Wei said it truthfully, and she couldn't laugh or cry when she saw this misunderstanding.
"It's really not that uncomfortable, auntie, my classmate's family is rich, and the ones she doesn't use are new ones, and they are all very expensive brands."
As he spoke, he took out his mobile phone:
"Look at my cell phone..."
The words stopped abruptly.
When the slider is pushed open, you can see the pits and scratches on it with just one glance, as well as a somewhat chipped screen.
——This is also called good?
At this moment, even Brother Haitao looked at her suspiciously.
Ding Wei:……
She didn't know what to say.
These days, mobile phones are still a valuable item. Although film stickers are not popular, they are still very valuable to everyone on a daily basis.
It's not like Ding Wei, who throws it away and carries it wherever she goes, and doesn't feel any pain at all when it jingles and rubs against her keys every day.
After all, after using a smartphone, it’s really hard to feel cherished if you replace it with the popular slider.
After making money from reading Lu Li’s online articles, the first thing I did was to change to a more expensive mobile phone.
But in Ding Wei's eyes, wouldn't it just be like that again?
Not necessary.
…
Facing everyone's suspicious looks, she took back her phone and decided to quickly bring the topic back to the main point.
"Then the copyright of my book has also been sold. I will bring you a published set next time."
There’s no need to mention Xiaobailian, and there’s no need to talk about the TV series either.
"Later I started writing more and earning more money. I happened to be allocated a welfare house in my editorial office, so I bought one."
"It is now renovated and rented out. The monthly rent is 4,300 yuan."
"My classmate's brother is a decorator, and he introduced me to a relatively shabby big yard, and I bought it too."
Ding Wei spoke lightly and concisely, but brother Haitao had already touched his chest and was a little out of breath.
——Are all writers so rich now?
He, he is also related by blood, can he have this talent?
Brother Haitao is not interested in the house. He just wants to get a new computer and buy a cool motorcycle...
It's a pity that I didn't take the driver's license test, otherwise I would have owned a Fujiwara Takumi AE86, how handsome it would be!
Ryosuke Takahashi’s is also pretty good!
…
Not only brother Haitao, but also his eldest uncle was silent at this moment.
He mentally calculated the three houses in the imperial capital. Even though he didn't know the specific price and area, he was really shocked.
But apart from being shocked, I was even more happy.
"Okay, okay! I just said that this girl Weiwei has a lot of potential, she's so awesome!"
After thinking about it this way, Weiwei will definitely stay in the imperial capital from now on. With such a capable sister, what else can I say about Haitao's house?
You must prepare a set in the imperial capital.
Otherwise, if you come back to your hometown, wouldn't such a good school be wasted?
My uncle secretly made up his mind and quickly calculated the family savings.
Not only his uncle and brother Haitao, Xie Yan also felt a sense of crisis in his heart.
——My girlfriend is so capable. In one year, she worked alone and bought three houses and a car.
In comparison, is he too useless?
Although the stocks with millions of dollars in hand are rising well, the market is not always so good. How can fixed assets maintain their value?
You must work harder!
…
Ding Wei looked at her aunt and said sincerely:
"Auntie, so don't worry about me. I own a house now, and I have more than one house. You will have a place to live when you go to the imperial capital."
"I am not short of money, nor am I wronged."
"only……"
She said hesitantly:
"I hid this from my parents, aunt, do you think I'm bad..."
"What did you say!"
The aunt reacted immediately: "Is that what people say if it's good or not? It depends on how to do it!"
"If a brat like Haitao dares to be unfilial to me when I grow old, I will give him a slap in the face."
"Because he has been growing up, I ask myself that I have not treated him badly, and I have done everything I can."
"But your parents..."
The aunt sneered.
…
However, she did analyze rationally.
"Weiwei, you and Xiao Xie are going to start a family together in the future. You can't hide the wedding like this. Whether you are rich or Xiao Xie is rich, you can't hide it for the rest of your life."
"Auntie, I'm covering it up for you. Don't say bad things about your parents outside. Okay, okay, I'll say it for you. You can't let others hold you accountable for this."
"How can you be a writer without a good reputation? In the future, you will have to be advised by others when publishing books."
The aunt suggested hesitantly: "How about you buy something for your brother every month. Don't give a penny of cash. Just buy diapers, milk powder and other useful things. I will dismantle them and send them to him every week."
