Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 363
Chapter 363: Family Savings
Teacher Lin noticed Dong Huang and Feng Lin’s little interaction and breathed a sigh of relief. When Dong Huang joined the class midway through the semester, she worried that it would be difficult for her to integrate with her classmates. Fortunately, she has become friends with her deskmate. This way, it will be easier for her to make friends with other classmates.
Unlike Dong Huang’s smooth introduction, Dong Li was laughed at as soon as he entered the class. The reason is that most of the sixth grade students are children from Xie Village. There are only nine students in this class, including Dong Li, and he is the youngest one.
When they saw him carrying the new bag, they were jealous. Although they didn’t know him well, his classmates didn’t like him due to the gossip the villagers often said to their children.
He stood in front of the class, looked at his classmates calmly, and said, “Hello, everyone. My name is Dong Li. I’m here to study, and I don’t want to be disturbed unless necessary. Thank you.”
The teacher was stunned after hearing what he said. He looked at Dong Li and said, “Classmate Dong, it’s great to have a passion for learning. But you also need to make friends with your classmates.”
Dong Li turned to look at the teacher and asked, “Why?”
Looking into his clear eyes, the teacher was speechless. He didn’t know how to explain to him the importance of connection and making friends because it was common sense and no one had ever asked him about it before.
Seeing that the teacher could not answer him, Dong Li calmly added, “Teacher, although it is important to establish connections and make friends, I don’t think any of my classmates can benefit me. Judging from their attitudes of learning and their mindsets, they won’t be able to leave this village. I have my own goals and ambitions. So, rather than waste time interacting with them, I prefer to read more and improve myself.”
The teacher listened to what he said and thought he was right. He glanced at his other students who had ugly expressions and sighed. In the end, he did not persuade Dong Li anymore and said, “Classmate Dong, you can sit at the table by the window.”
It was exactly what Dong Li said. Most of his students stopped coming to school after the last semester. Their parents have made it clear that they will only send their sons until they can read or write simple words.
Since they don’t have a connection that allows them to go to university, they don’t want to waste money and time. They might as well let their children do farm work and earn more work points.
The students wanted to embarrass Dong Li and ostracized him. But after seeing his cold attitude and his ugly words, they didn’t think their plan would have any impact on him. In this case, they didn’t bother to waste time with him. They just treated him like air, much to Dong Li’s preference.
In this atmosphere, Dong Li concentrated on absorbing all the knowledge taught by the teacher like a sponge. He didn’t even bother to talk to his deskmate.
At this time, Li Chenmo had returned home and saw his wife getting ready to go out. He walked up to her and asked, “Wife, do you want to go out?”
Lu Jueyu tied up her hair, showing her fair neck and nodded, “Husband, you are back. I’m going to send the money to my sister-in-law and Meijia.”
After hearing his wife’s words, Li Chenmo walked up to her, bent down and kissed her on the cheek, “Ride slower and be careful on the road, I won’t go with you today. My brothers and I now need to separate the pigs.”
Lu Jueyu counted the time and found that more than a month had passed since they brought back the four piglets from the brigade. Under normal circumstances, pigs are ready for breeding when they are five to seven months old. But with good feed, they may be ready to breed as early as three months old. Since their pigs are raised for slaughter, they need to separate them.
Lu Jueyu nodded to him and said, “Okay.”
Not long after, Li Chenze and Li Lingyun came over and went to the pig pen with Li Chenmo.
After locking the door, Lu Jueyu rode her bicycle to Li Chenze’s house. When she arrived, Zhang Dongmei was drying clothes in the front yard.
Seeing her coming, Zhang Dongmei said with a smile, “Third sister-in-law, you are here.”
Lu Jueyu parked her bicycle and said, “Sister-in-law, I hope I didn’t disturb you.”
“You came just in time. I’ve just finished my work. Come in and have a cup of tea.”
After she hung all the clothes on the bamboo poles, neither of them stayed in the living room, but went to the bedroom. She closed the door, poured a cup of tea for Lu Jueyu, placed it on the small table on the Kang bed and asked, “Third Sister-in-law, are you here to deliver money today?”
Lu Jueyu took a sip of tea and nodded. She put the teacup on the small table, took out her purse and said, “Sister-in-law, after deducting the cost, we made 3,550 yuan from selling snacks yesterday. Including the previous two days, we made a total of 9.895 yuan.”
After counting the money, she handed it to Zhang Dongmei and said, “Sister-in-law, this is your share. A total of 1,485 yuan.”
Although she knew their business was profitable, it was the first time she had made so much money in three days. Even for factory workers, the monthly salary is only 30 yuan. This amount is equivalent to 64 months’ salary of a factory worker!
Thinking about all the money she had earned since helping her third sister-in-law and how her family’s life was getting better day by day, Zhang Dongmei was extremely grateful to her. At this moment, in just 27 days, their family already has savings of more than 15,000 yuan!
