The mother and daughter looked at each other and decided not to tell Mr. Tao about this gift. They would give him a surprise when the time came.
Although Tan Rou planned to buy a gift later, she felt that it was necessary to tell her parents about the painting first.
“Dad, Mom, 1 have to tell you something. Don’t be surprised, especially Dad since you’re the one driving.” Tan Rou said.
“Dear, did something happen?” Father Tao asked nervously.
Tan Rou pretended to be relaxed. “It’s not a big deal. It’s just that I accidentally earned 50 million today.”
“Earning money is a good thing…” Mother Tao felt that something was wrong halfway through her sentence. “But, Rourou, how did you earn 50 million?”
“I spent three thousand to buy a painting in Antique City today. I didn’t expect that the painting contained the painting of ‘The hundred miles of the Spirit River’ by the ancient court painter, Wu Dao. As soon as we found the painting, a rich man bought it from me.”
“The ‘Hundred Miles of the Spirit River Scenery Painting’!” Father Tao has heard of this painting. “This painting has been missing for more than 20 years. 1 didn’t expect you to actually buy it.”
Tan Rou looked at her father’s reaction and regretted selling the painting. She should have brought it back for her father’s birthday present.
“But…. someone else already bought it from me.” Tan Rou said dejectedly.
“It’s fine, it’s fine.” Mr. Tao consoled her, “The painting is dead, but we are those who are alive. It’s a very good deal that you got 50 million from 3 thousand. My daughter is really good at doing business.”
Mrs. Tao was cautious. “Xiao Rou, do you know who bought the painting?”
Tan Rou pretended not to know Song Cheng. “Brother Zhuang knows him. 1 think his last name is Song.”
Mrs. Tao could only think of one old man with the surname Song who could take out 50 million yuan. If he had taken the painting, he would definitely treat it well.
“Oh. ” Mrs. Tao nodded.
“Do you know him?” Tan Rou asked.
“How would 1 even know that?!” Mother Tao quickly replied.
How did her mother know such a rich person? Her mother just felt that the person who could fork out 50 million to buy such a painting would definitely treat it well.
Indeed, Song Cheng was a person who liked painting. Tan Rou felt at ease if she sold the painting to him.
As for the money from selling the painting, Tan Rou had her own plans.
“Dad, Mom, 1 want to discuss something with you.” Tan Rou said, “1 want to use this money as an investment. Is that okay?”
Mrs. Tao smiled and patted her daughter’s head. “Of course you can. You’re the one who earned this money. You can spend it however you want but you shouldn’t be reckless with how you spend it.”
Tan Rou thought that her parents wouldn’t agree. She didn’t expect them to agree so readily.
“I want to invest with my Third Brother. 1 used the money from before to do business with him and he has given me a lot of dividends. So, I want to invest the money with him again.” Tan Rou continued explaining herself.
“I believe in your taste.” This time, it was Father Tao who answered, “As someone who has been through this before, 1 have to remind you.”
Tan Rou knew that her father didn’t have a simple identity so she wanted to hear his opinion.
“First of all, 1 know that Xiao Zhuang is someone you trust. He has also brought you to earn a lot of money, but you have to be wary of others. Secondly, when investing, you must be bold but careful. Choose the industries that you think you can invest in. Don’t invest in something just because you like it. Finally, whether your investment fails or succeeds, we will always be your best support.”
Their family did not lack this bit of money. Even if their daughter’s investment failed, they could find a way to make it up. Besides, it wasn’t necessary that the investment would fail. Didn’t his daughter succeed several times?
Tan Rou was very touched and hugged Mrs. Tao. “Thank you, Dad and Mom, for believing in me.”
“You’re our dear daughter, we will obviously support you no matter what.”
These words made Tan Rou’s heart ache. In her previous life, her parents trusted and loved her too much which was why they ended up getting killed.
After living another life, she finally saw the love and trust her parents had for her. In this life, she would definitely not let her parents down..
