125 Chapter 124, Future Dreams
Li Xu imitated her, “Do you want to see it? Mom will show it to you.”
Ji Yuanyuan shook his head, “I don’t want to see it, I just want to know how much it is!”
Li Xu Thought for a moment, “It’s about 20,000 Yuan!”
“20,000 yuan? That much?” Ji Yuanyuan asked in surprise.
She was really surprised. After all, households with 10,000 Yuan savings were considered wealthy in the 1990s.
And now, they had 20,000 Yuan!
“Speaking of which, you earned all this money. Yuanyuan, you’re really my little lucky star. If it weren’t for you, what would I do?”
If Yuanyuan wasn’t smart enough to save Qin Mucheng, and if she didn’t have Yuanyuan’s s.p.a.ce, she didn’t know how she would survive.
A woman bringing up three children…
“How can that be? This money belongs to Mom. At most, one-fifth of this is mine!” Ji Yuanyuan calculated beside Li Xu’s ear, “I only provided a place, but you were the one who planted vegetables and watered them every day, went to the vegetable market every morning and every night, and interacted with all kinds of customers every day!”
Li Xu smiled, “No matter who it belongs to, it belongs to our family!”
Ji Yuanyuan was about to speak when she suddenly heard a sound from outside.
It was the sound of very light footsteps, one in front and one behind.
Ji Yuanyuan laughed and said in a low voice, “Big Brother and Second Brother are here as well.”
Just as she said this, the door opened.
Under the moonlight, Ji Zixuan and Ji Zi’ang could be seen, one in front and one behind.
One of them was hugging the blanket while the other was hugging the pillow.
“Mom…” Seeing that Li Xu was still awake, Ji Zi’ang immediately pounced onto the bed and threw the pillow on it.
Ji Zixuan unhurriedly stepped forward and placed the blanket on the bed before he unhurriedly climbed up.
Li Xu got up and helped the two of them place the pillows properly before she covered them with the blanket.
“Quickly cover yourself with the quilt. Don’t catch a cold.” It was the beginning of September, and it was already a little cold at night.
The two brothers crawled into the quilt and stayed close to Li Xu.
Only then did Li Xu lay down and carefully tucked the quilt for the two of them.
“Mom, you earned our family’s money with great difficulty. Don’t give it to him, okay?” Ji Zi’ang said impatiently as soon as he laid down.
Although he had no idea what 100,000 Yuan was. He vaguely knew that 100,000 Yuan was a lot of money. It was money that his family could not earn even if they sold their house!
Ji Zixuan tugged at Ji Zi’ang’s arm, signaling for him to stop talking.
It was not easy for everyone to forget about this matter and become happy!
However, Ji Zixuan still ignored him and said, “He’s not good to us at all. He’s even worse than Uncle Zhang. Why should we give him money?!”
Ji Zixuan stopped moving and thought about the past.
In fact, he did not feel he was wronged in the past, he wasn’t only acting like that towards him.
He simply did not care about Zi’ang or Yuanyuan!
He treated himself a little better. Although he felt a little sorry for his siblings, he would occasionally feel secretly happy.
His father treated him differently.
Of course, most of the time, he still felt wronged.
He felt wronged for himself, his mother, and for his younger siblings.
How could someone else’s father be so good? On rainy days, he would come to the school to pick them up. When he was free, he would personally make some small toys, and when he had some money in his hands, he would buy delicious food for the children…
At that time, he was so envious of his cla.s.smates!
However, after meeting Uncle Zhang, he seemed to gradually stop being envious of others.
Uncle Zhang would often find excuses to buy toys and clothes for them. Whenever there was something from the office, he would rush over to give it to them. He was very patient with him and his younger siblings, and he had never been impatient, he had never lost his temper.
With Uncle Zhang around, he would think about what his father had done in the past…
Ji Zixuan raised his hand and rubbed his eyes.
“Mom, if he goes to jail, we won’t be soldiers and won’t have to take the civil service exam.” Ji Yuanyuan took this opportunity to persuade her, “I don’t like it anyway.”
Li Xu smiled and patted her back, “What do you want to be when you grow up?”
“I want to be a leader, the kind who starts her own company!” Ji Yuanyuan said casually.
It was even better for a self-employed person. No matter what heinous crime Ji Jianguo committed, it would not affect her.
“What about Zixuan? What is your dream for the future?”
After Li Xu asked, Ji Zixuan did not say anything for a long time.
He really did not seem to have thought about the future.
“I don’t know!” A moment later, Ji Zixuan shook his head honestly, “But I don’t want to be a civil servant, nor do I want to be a soldier!”
Li Xu looked at Ji Zi’ang again, “What about you?”
“Hehe, when I grow up, I want to drive a car and become a driver!” Ji Zi’ang said foolishly.
“Silly boy, what’s so good about being a driver?” Li Xu could not help but patted Ji Zi’ang’s forehead.
However, Ji Zi’ang became serious, “What’s so bad about being a driver? Drivers can earn money. Look at how much the bus driver charges per day!”
They had to pay one or two Yuan per person for half an hour’s ride. There were so many people on the bus. They had to earn at least one or two hundred dollars a day!
“There’s also Uncle Gong. He drives Grandpa Qin. He has nothing to do every day, and his salary is quite high!”
Uncle Gong was Qin Junshan’s chauffeur and bodyguard.
He was indeed quite free. Qin Junshan rarely went out, so he only had to wait for orders in the villa most of the time.
His salary should be quite high. After all, he had to be on call 24 hours a day, and he had multiple jobs.
Li Xu shook her head helplessly.
“Alright, go to sleep now. You still have to go to school tomorrow!” Li Xu said in a low voice, “Don’t worry about adult matters.”
Ji Zi’ang was indeed a little sleepy. He closed his eyes, yawned, and said vaguely, “Then you have to promise me that you can’t give him the family money…”
“Okay, I won’t!” Li Xu reached out and patted his back.
The children quickly fell asleep. Li Xu opened her eyes, she didn’t fall asleep for a long time.
The next day, when Ji Yuanyuan woke up, Li Xu had already gone to the shop.
Ji Yuanyuan was a little worried. After urging her two brothers to wash up quickly, the three of them went to the shop first and took a look from afar.
Seeing that Li Xu was fine and busy in the shop, Ji Yuanyuan was finally relieved.
Just as he was about to pull his two brothers away, he saw two figures not far away.
They were Yang Jingyi and her mother, Hu Chunli.
“Yang Jingyi!” Ji Yuanyuan shouted.
The two of them were not in the same grade anymore. They were always apart from each other during school hours. In addition, she had been busy at home recently and had not seen Yang Jingyi for a few days.
When Yang Jingyi and Hu Chunli heard the voices, they turned around and saw Ji Yuanyuan and the others. They stood where they were and waited for Ji Yuanyuan and the others to come forward.
Ji Yuanyuan pulled her two brothers and ran all the way to Yang Jingyi’s side.
She asked while panting, “Yang Jingyi, why haven’t you been to my house recently?”
