Chapter 450: Show My Hand! I Have Lots Of Savings
Many people meant more housework. Jiang Yingqiu was in poor health. When Gu Qingyao married, she would be the daughter-in-law. If she didn’t do the work, who would?
In their family, they themselves couldn’t bear to let her do much housework…
Gu Jinhang looked at Mo Beihan. “This matter is completely unexpected. I understand if you cannot bear to abandon the children. I also understand if you want to take care of them. But Mo Beihan, you are the mainstay of this family. Tell us, how are you planning to support them?”
Mo Beihan said earnestly, “Firstly, I can guarantee that Yao Yao will not suffer when she is with me.
“As for the children, I know that many will think of them as burdens. But the truth is that the standard of living that I can provide for Yao Yao will not be greatly affected by these children. Jiang Xun will be grown in two years. He can work and support himself and his younger brother. Chengrui will be older in two years’ time. At most, I will need to support the two younger ones.
“I…”
Mo Beihan thought about it. He knew what he was capable of, but the Gu family did not.
From an ordinary person’s perspective, it was difficult to accept this.
Mo Beihan decided to be blunt.
“I currently have more than two thousand six hundred yuan in cash and plenty of every kind of coupon. You know what kind of job I have. I am amply provided for, so there is no need to worry that we will be short of coupons. Also, with our connections, as long as I have the money, there are always ways to obtain things.
“Besides that, I have given ten thousand yuan of my savings to Yao Yao, plus a chest of antiques. Also… a small box of gold. The money is enough to support these children until they are grown up, with plenty left over to provide for Yao Yao and my expenses. And then there is still my future salary.”
The entire room of people was stunned by his revelation!
Ten thousand yuan!!
In these times, it was an incredible sum.
Even those people who were doing very well in the city might not have that much money.
Only those old families, who were keeping a low profile and working in their various professions, might be able to raise such a large sum of money.
Gu Yunshen immediately narrowed his eyes. “You gave the money to Yao Yao? Aren’t you afraid that a young girl like her might not hide it well?”
Mo Beihan looked at the dangerous gleam in his future father-in-law’s eye and an idea struck him!
Yao Yao had certainly told his father-in-law about the inters.p.a.ce. If his father-in-law knew that Yao Yao had also told him about the inters.p.a.ce, surely his father-in-law would be angry?
He felt that Yao Yao was just too trusting. Yao Yao would certainly be scolded if he let it slip that she had told someone outside the family about this!
Mo Beihan immediately said, “Yao Yao is my fiancée. We’ll be married in another year or two. Of course, I handed my things to her for safe-keeping.
“Also, Yao Yao has remained at home for so many years and has always been good at running the household. She’s not the kind of girl to spend carelessly. Sometimes, she even thinks the things I buy for her are too expensive! I am not worried about putting the money with her.
“Also, in my line of work, we can be mobilized. It’s not convenient for me to carry it with me, so I just gave it to Yao Yao. She can hide it for us to use when we are married.”
Although he phrased his answer so that Gu Yunshen could not tell whether he knew about Gu Qingyao’s inters.p.a.ce, his words pleased the Gu family.
Everyone hoped that their daughter’s fiancé would think highly of her.
Mo Beihan felt that his answer was pretty good.
Look, even that crafty Second Brother-in-law, who was the most difficult to deal with, was looking at him more warmly.
