189 God of Fortune Comes
After Duan Mei closed the door, she pulled her husband to the bed and told him about her trip to the countryside. Then, she took out 60 yuan.
Mr. Yu was shocked. “There was really such a coincidence?!”
Duan Mei smiled happily. “This is called the God of Fortune coming to our door herself!”
Mr. Yu lowered his head and looked at the 60 yuan. The negative emotions from Yu Bing’s refusal to subsidize the family dissipated by more than half. He smiled and said, “Our second daughter is quite nice. She knows who her real family is!”
Duan Mei took out a locked metal box from the gap behind the bed and carefully placed the money in. “Yes, we only raised her for two years, but I didn’t expect her to care so much about us, unlike that little b*tch Yu Bing. She’s so ungrateful despite how many years we raised her! Fortunately, she wasn’t chosen by that couple back then because of her poor health. Otherwise, with her ungrateful personality, we wouldn’t get this 60 yuan!”
Mr. Yu nodded in agreement and gave his wife an idea. “Then take the initiative to write a letter to her. You must win her heart. You can’t let her side with her adoptive parents.”
Duan Mei smiled smugly when she heard this. “Don’t worry, she took the initiative to mention writing a letter to her adoptive family, so I agreed.”
When Mr. Yu heard this, he nodded in satisfaction. “We have to save money and find a job for Yu Wu first. It won’t be good for him to waste time at home all day long. Coincidentally, since our second daughter has appeared now, keep it up. I won’t appear for the time being. If the Yao couple finds out that we went to acknowledge our second daughter, this matter will be difficult to resolve!”
“I understand. When I was in the countryside, I was very careful when I met our second daughter. Shi Lian didn’t notice anything!”
As Mr. Yu looked at the money in the small metal box, he thought happily about getting more money from his second daughter this year. This way, Yu Wu’s job would be settled. Next, he would start saving up the betrothal money for Yu Wu’s wife!
Mr. Yu wanted to consider Yu Bing’s situation thoroughly. First, he would try to get Yu Bing’s salary. This way, he could let her earn money to subsidize the family. When she became older, he would marry her off and get another sum of betrothal money.
Yu Bing was only 18 years old now, but she was already a cadre in the village. What if she achieved greater fortune in another two years? She might even be able to marry a cadre in the commune or county. Yao Nian wasn’thing! Mr. Yu Bing didn’t want a son-in-law who had to be raised by his daughter.
At the thought of this, Mr. Yu planned to write a letter to remind Yu Bing. Things were different now. Yu Bing had to have higher standards. She couldn’t fall for the farmers in the village or useless intellectuals like Yao Nian! “I’ll write a letter to Yu Bing these few days.”
Duan Mei was different from Mr. Yu. Getting quick money as soon as possible was the most important thing to Duan Mei. Mr. Yu wanted to maximize the long-term benefits Yu Bing brought. No matter what, in their eyes, Yu Bing wasn’t family, but a tool for making money.
He Mountain Brigade.
As soon as Yu Bing entered, she greeted Auntie Zhao loudly, “Auntie Zhao, I want to exchange eggs with you again!”
There were not enough eggs in the factory. Yu Bing had recently arranged for Feng Cai to go to the two neighboring villages to buy the eggs for the factory. For personal consumption, Yu Bing still had to exchange eggs with Auntie Zhao.
“No problem.” Auntie Zhao limped out of the living room with a smile.
“How many do you want this time?”
Yu Bing handed the bamboo basket forward and replied with a smile, “10!”
Auntie Zhao walked towards the room again. Yu Bing saw a bamboo basket under the loquat tree in the courtyard and a bamboo pole with a net beside it.
Yu Bing approached the loquat tree and asked loudly, “Auntie, are you going to pick loquats?”
Auntie Zhao’s voice came from the house. “Yes, many loquats are ripe already, so I want to pluck them and make loquat syrup.”
“Then I’ll help you.” With that, Yu Bing rolled up her sleeves, picked up the bamboo pole, and began to climb the tree. She chose a thicker tree trunk as a fulcrum to climb higher.
Just now, she realized that the short spots had already been removed. Comparatively, because Auntie Zhao’s legs were handicapped and she couldn’t reach the bamboo pole, some of them were almost ripe and on the verge of falling down.
At this moment, Auntie Zhao had already packed the eggs. When she walked out of the house and saw Yu Bing, who had already climbed up the tree, she hurriedly said, “Be careful. Don’t climb too high.”
Yu Bing was thin and was from the city. Auntie Zhao was worried that she wasn’t as healthy as children from the countryside. Moreover, she was a girl as well.
