Chapter 78: 78 Must spend real money

Lin Qingshan looked at Ning Xinrou with tender eyes, “Please take it.”

There’s no need for formality among family; at worst he could just do more work around the house in the future.

Li Xiuli stuffed the banknotes into her hands, saying with emotion, “This is what you deserve.”

“…It should have been my duty as her mother to worry about making new clothes for Tangtang, yet here you are, the elder sister-in-law, taking the trouble instead.”

Thankfully, the eldest daughter-in-law is considerate; otherwise, if the girl went to her exam in tattered clothes, she’d surely be looked down upon!

“Mom, please don’t say that,” Ning Xinrou said.

“Just like Tangtang said, we’re one family, not two.”

She, her husband, Goudan, and Choudan had taken advantage of their younger sister-in-law so much.

Being able to give something back made her feel a bit more at ease.

She didn’t expect her mother-in-law and sister-in-law would actually give her money; it was truly a surprise.

Zhou Mei watched from the side, feeling sour in her heart.

But—

she knew she was being petty, never having given her sister-in-law anything.

She could only sulk like a child, not daring to say half a word.

If she dared to say no, her mother-in-law’s broom would come flying.

Lin Qingshui felt his wife was acting a bit strange, surprisingly not causing a fuss.

Looking at Zhou Mei with amazement, he noticed her expression carried a touch of annoyance.

Eh, this was really strange!

His petty wife showing such an expression?

Too odd indeed.

However, he was busy listening to the third brother talking about the Textile Factory Broadcasting Station and that singing machine, so he didn’t bother to attend to the matter.

Because of a piece of great news today, the Lin Family went to sleep much later than usual.

Only after the stars had been out for quite awhile did everyone contentedly head off to their respective rooms.

The second house.

Once back in his room, Lin Qingshui saw his wife still looking dejected and asked, puzzled, “…What’s wrong?”

What responded to him was Zhou Mei’s resentful gaze.

“You don’t care about me at all!”

She had been silent for so long, yet this man, as if blind, showed not the slightest response.

Now that he asked, it was all too late.

Lin Qingshui was silent for a moment and then the corners of his mouth twitched.

Taking off his outer clothing, he flipped the covers open and lay on the bed.

“Hurry up and sleep, we have to work tomorrow.”

Zhou Mei’s face cracked.

She pounced onto the bed, pinned the man down, and started fiercely pinching his neck.

“Lin Qingshui, can’t you say a few nice words to comfort me?”

She looked ferocious.

But she only gently circled Lin Qingshui’s neck with her hands.

Clearly, she was just seeking attention and acting up.

Lin Qingshui smiled, then lifted the covers and pulled her into his arms.

“Really, we should sleep now or you won’t be able to get up tomorrow.”

Since Zhou Mei had made him angry, the couple hadn’t had any physical intimacy for several days.

All of a sudden, their bodies came close to each other…

Zhou Mei paused, immediately stopped making a fuss.

She took off her clothes, crawled under the comforter, and fell asleep not long after.

Lin Qingshui waited for Zhou Mei to fall asleep, then suddenly opened his eyes.

He tucked the blanket around the woman by his side and his lips curved slightly.

A happy home leads to prosperity.

He didn’t have many demands of his wife.

Being lazy, glutinous, or a bit petty was all fine.

As long as it didn’t cause the family to look bad, it was okay.

He cherished all of his family members.

The early morning hours passed quickly.

Lin Tang completed the daily check-in and received ten milliliters of magic liquid.

“Tongzi, this magic liquid couldn’t be that kind that cleanses the marrow and rejuvenates people, making them look ten years younger, could it?”

Even though ten milliliters seemed way too little, if it were really that powerful, then it would be enough.

The System remained silent.

Lin Tang thought it was malfunctioning and asked, “Tongzi? Have you broken down?”

!

Moments later.

The system spoke.

Lin Tang actually detected a hint of discontent from that calm and unflappable voice.

She raised an eyebrow, “So when I ask you something and you don’t answer, am I not to think you’ve crashed?”

The system wanted to go silent again.

But the moment it considered the Host might say something even more infuriating, it promptly responded.

“Oh!”

“I see now.”

“So the things I get from signing in always have reduced effects.”

The rewards from signing in aren’t as effective as the items bought with points, yeah, that’s it.

Still gotta pay to win.

Lin Tang complained.

While she grumbled with her lips, her heart was quite delighted.

She had been planning to nourish her parents’ health anyway.

It’s just that the potion she made was too sinister-looking, an eerie green, and she really couldn’t bring herself to bring it out.

Now with the elixir, isn’t this just like getting a pillow when one is sleepy?

At the same time, in the county.

Deqing Middle School, the staff residential compound, inside a certain house.

The room’s lights were bright, a man and a woman sat opposite each other.

“Are you confident? There won’t be any mistakes, right?” the woman asked with a slight worry.

She had heard that the Principal had a powerful backer.

It wouldn’t be easy for her husband to bring that person down.

Jian Zhongting looked as if everything was under control.

He scorned with a sneer.

“I’ve already sent the letters, what do you think? Just wait to become the Principal’s wife.”

That grandson Zhu Sihan relied on his connections to snatch the Principal position from him and threw him a bone by giving him the Vice Principal spot.

Who the hell wants to be a deputy?

He had been eyeing that son of a gun for years, and finally, he found some dirt on him.

If it gets out that he’s been trading notification letters for favors, that grandson’s skin might just get peeled off layer by layer, right?

Song Yuzhu looked at her husband’s confident face and breathed a sigh of relief.

She smiled faintly, and her ordinary face seemed to shine like a dusted pearl, revealing some charm.

“What Principal’s wife? I am already the Principal’s wife!” she said with a seductive laugh in her voice.

Just listening to her voice, one might believe the speaker was a peerless beauty.

Jian Zhongting laughed heartily and wrapped his arm around his wife’s slender waist, “Right, right, right, my wife sure knows how to speak.”

Song Yuzhu’s eyes flickered with amusement, and she smiled without saying a word.

The next day.

Lin Tang was preoccupied with matters and got up early.

She had just poured half a bottle of elixir into the family water tank.

Li Xiuli suddenly appeared behind her, silently.

“Tangtang, what are you spacing out for? There’s hot water in the thermos, hurry and wash up.”

Lin Tang jumped in fright.

She glanced at Mother Li, saw nothing unusual on her face, and relaxed.

“Yeah, I’ll go wash up now.”

Li Xiuli sat on a small wooden stool by the stove, starting to kindle the fire for heating water.

Just after she started the fire, the other members of the Lin Family had also awakened.

The men washed their faces haphazardly with cold water and got busy.

Chopping wood, feeding the pigs, watering the vegetable garden, not one was idle.

Seeing her mother had no intention of making breakfast, Lin Tang went back to her room and took out those two pounds of Peach Crisp from the System Space.

“Mother, you divide these two pounds of Peach Crisp among everyone, so they can fill their stomachs before starting work in the morning.”
