“This waffle biscuit is really delicious. Moreover, the cream inside seems to be chocolate.”
The voices of the people around her also reached her ears.
“That’s right, that’s right. I really admire this Boss Jing. Where did all these goods come from? I’ve never seen these strange things before.”
Yun Lian extracted a very crucial piece of information from the words on the table in front of her. This snack shop was also run by Boss Jing. Perhaps some people in the school did not know that Boss Jing was Jing Yu from the elite class, but Yun Lian knew.
Yun Lian looked at the little money in her wallet and felt that it was too shabby.
The little money that Zhou Mo gave her to pay for some tuition and miscellaneous fees was almost gone. After that, the Old Madam gave her a little more money, which was enough for her to live on.
Ever since she went to school, the Yung Gang couple had not given her a single cent. She had earned every single cent for her expenses and meals.
Later on, she could only try working part-time during the holidays. However, working part-time was really too tiring. It was not as easy as reaching out to the family to ask for money.
Every Time Yun Lian was so tired that her back ached, she would envy Yun Xi’s current life.
Yun Lian had also tried to write letters to Zhou Mo, who lived in the city, but she had never received a reply.
Those beautifully packaged letters had never reached Zhou Mo’s hands. Every ambiguous letter, every letter seeking help and financial support, was thrown into the trash bin by Qian Yun like trash.
Without Zhou Mo’s help, it would be too difficult for Yun Lian to continue on this path by herself.
Now, she had her eyes on Jing Yu.
She was the one who had discovered this business genius first. Why did the person who had the best relationship with their family become the third son of the Yun family? The third son and his family had all found jobs because of this business genius. Now that they had a house and a proper job in the county, their lives were flourishing.
However, her reputation in school was getting worse and worse, and Yung Gang’s family completely ignored her daily expenses.
She was not willing to go back to the village to get married and live the rest of her life like Liu Fang. Studying was the only way to change her fate, but she needed money and people to help her on this road.
She had missed the beginning of accompanying Jing Yu to become a business tycoon, but if she was his girlfriend, she might still be able to make it in time.
If she was Jing Yu’s girlfriend, Yun Lian could also spend the money from the Jing family’s shop generously. Jing Yu also opened so many shops in the city, so she didn’t believe that he couldn’t afford to support her.
Chen Li also finished her morning work and found that working was really tiring. However, relying on her own ability to earn money could indeed make her back stronger. Moreover, Chen Li, who had always been weak, gradually found a kind of self-confidence, a kind of self-confidence from financially independent. The self-confidence that she could survive as long as she relied on herself.
Yun Shan, on the other hand, had been absent-minded while working in the pharmacy.
After Wang Long and his wife left, Yun Xi found him and talked to him a lot. With his daughter’s novel words, Yun Shan gradually began to doubt what he had previously believed.
Yun Shan had always felt that there was nothing wrong with him being filial to his parents, but he had never thought that the word filial can have many meanings. Moreover, there were many different practices regarding filial piety, and it was definitely not as simple as simply listening to his parent’s wishes.
Yun Xi gave him an example.
If one day the Old Madam fell seriously ill, it would cost a lot of money to treat her. The Old Madam was afraid of affecting her family’s future life, so she did not go to treat her illness anymore.
However, as a relative, could he allow the Old Madam to face death alone and not care? Even if there was a glimmer of hope, he would still want to save someone’s life even if he had to go bankrupt.
So, did he still need to listen to the elders at this time? He could completely go against the elder’s wishes and make his own decisions.
Could it be that filial piety had to be placed on life and death? Was it applicable now? He did not have to listen to every word of the elders. He only needed to ensure that the elders’ living conditions were good enough.
