In her previous life, Xia Fenz had been verv obedient. Whv would he be so interested in what Xu ye was doing?
“Don’t you want to study? Do you want to go to work?” Xia Wan asked.
Seeing this, Xia Feng didn’t hide anything from her and said directly, “Even if I study now, I’m spending my family’s money. I’m afraid the salary after I
graduate won’t be high. But now, we can make thousands of Yuan a day by selling clothes. Big brother Xu’s business is bigger. If I follow him, I should be able to make more money.
“Don’t we study to earn money? Now that I have the opportunity to earn money directly, why not do it?”
Xia Wan didn’t expect Xia Feng to think of this.
After some thought, she said to Xia Feng seriously, “There’s one thing you’re right about. Maybe we don’t earn much money after we find a job, but the process of studying is not only about learning knowledge; it’s also a process for us to make connections.
“Our country is vast, and there are talents from all walks of life. In the future, we will also encounter all kinds of difficulties. If we want to achieve higher achievements, one person can’t do it. We need many people to help us.
“Then, where did these people who helped us come from? We met them in our studies and our daily lives. It’s mutually beneficial. Now you think that you can make money by doing business with brother Xu, but how can he expand his?
“That’s because of the connections between brother Xu’s parents and grandfather’s generation. Our family doesn’t have such connections, so we have to work hard to learn and improve our social status. Only then can we meet more outstanding people
“If we were just ordinary street vendors, why would those famous people be willing to be friends with us?”
Xia Feng fell silent after hearing Xia Wan’s words. He wasn’t stupid, so he understood the meaning of her words after a little thought.
Xia Feng nodded. “I understand, sister. I’ll study hard, but I want to help you guys during the holidays. I also want to help brother Xu.
Xia Wan smiled and nodded. “Of course, you can. We won’t stop you.”
The three of them returned home happily, and each of them looked forward to the future. However, as soon as they entered the house, they saw Li Jin and Xia Ye sitting in the courtyard. They had an impatient expression on their faces, as if they had been waiting for them for a long time.
When Xia Ye saw Xia Wan return, she immediately said, “Why are you home so late? You made us wait so long for you.”
Xia Wan immediately felt that something was wrong.
She stared at Xia Ye coldly. “The three of us are going out to work. It’s our business when we come back. What does it have to do with you?”
Xia Ye snorted and said to Li Jin, “Grandma, look at her attitude. She thinks she’s so great just because she’s helping someone sell clothes.”
Li Jin also stood up and walked straight to Xia Wan. “You earn so much every day; why didn’t you hand it over?”
“When Xia Ru was working, she handed in her monthly salary. Why didn’t you?”
When Li Jin said these words, Xia Ye, who was beside her, stared at Xia Wan with a smug look. Xia Wan’s expression did not change, but her mind spun quickly.
Previously, she had told her family that her daily income was 10 yuan. With such a low income, there was no reason for her to hand it over. Furthermore, there were three of them. However, looking at Xia Ye and Li Jin’s attitude, they were clearly betting that she would earn a lot.
Xia Wan decided to test the waters.
She said, “I only earn this little for a meal, and I’ve almost spent it all. How can I give it to you, grandma? Besides, the three of us can’t wear too shabby clothes, so we’re going to buy clothes in two days. This money isn’t even enough.”
Li Jin snorted coldly. “Who are you trying to fool? I already know that people like you who help others sell clothes will get a commission. With that, you can probably earn one yuan from selling 100 yuan, right?”
As she said this, Li Jin was also observing Xia Wan’s expression. If Xia Wan showed any signs of panic after being exposed, she would be sure that Xia Ye was telling the truth..
