Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Xia Chen and Xia Feng were looking forward to it, and they followed Xia Wan.
Seeing Xia Wan’s mysterious look, Yan Han laughed. “What’s the matter? Do you have something nice to say?”
Xia Wan smiled. “Of course, it’s a good thing!
She gave Xia Chen a look and immediately locked the door in case someone tried to break in.
After doing all this, Xia Wan took out the dried meat, dried fruits, and other food that she had hidden on the beam of the house.
When the beef jerky and pork jerky were presented to him, Xia Hai’s jaw dropped.
“Where did you get so much meat?!”
He didn’t suspect that the children obtained the meat through improper means, but he was very shocked. After all, he knew how much money they had. The money they spent on the meat was worth a few days’ wages.
Xia Wan didn’t let Xia Hai think too much about it and told him and Yan Han about her selling wild ginseng.
The two of them were dumbfounded.
Yan Han even exclaimed in a low voice, “5000 yuan? Oh my God, how is the price that high!”
Even though she and Xia Hai had been working for many years, they had never had more than 1000 yuan in their hands.
Their monthly salary was given to Li Jin. When the family needed money, they would ask Li Jin dollar by dollar.
Ten yuan was considered a lot.
Yan Han was shocked at first, then ecstatic, but he quickly calmed down. The expression on his face became serious as he warned Xia Wan seriously, “Don’t tell anyone else about this. And don’t even think about showing off. Otherwise, this money will hurt you.”
Xia Wan nodded solemnly. “Mom, don’t worry. I know what I’m doing.”
Xia Chen had seen how mature and steady Xia Wan was today, so he spoke up for her. “Mom, Wanwan is very capable now. The owner was only willing to pay 3000 yuan at first, but Xia Feng and I were stunned. We were still wondering how ginseng could sell for so much.
“It was only when Wanwan haggled with the boss that we realized that the boss’s offer was still too low.”
Hearing Xia Chen’s words, Yan Han looked at Xia Wan in confusion. “Wanwan, how did you know the price of wild ginseng?”
Even she and Xia Hai didn’t know how much it was worth, let alone the children. contemporary romance
Xia Wan had already thought of an excuse and said, “Grandpa told me before that ginseng is a very effective herb, so I know a bit. When I went to the pharmacy to buy medicine, I specifically asked about the price of ginseng.”
Yan Han believed her immediately and complimented her with a smile. “Our Wanwan is so smart.”
Xia Hai laughed along, revealing his white teeth.
“Wanwan, that’s a lot of money. I’ll make a passbook for you tomorrow. You can save the money and get interest.”
Even though he knew that it was 5000 yuan, Xia Hai did not think of asking for it. To him, this was the child’s own money, so it was natural for them to keep it for themselves.
Xia Wan did not plan to give the money to Xia Hai. It was not that she did not trust her father, but if she left the money in his hands, Li Jin would easily find out.
She didn’t want all her hard-earned money to go to the grandmother that didn’t love her.
Xia Wan thought of something and said tentatively, “Dad, with this money, we won’t have to worry about having nowhere to live when we move out. We can rent a house.”
Hearing Xia Wan’s words, Xia Hai’s expression turned ugly. “Child, why do you want to move out of the family? Your grandmother was indeed a little biased through your illness, but we’re still a family. If something really happens, we only have each other to rely upon.”
Yan Han had been very happy at first, but when he heard Xia Hai’s words, she became unhappy and glared at him.
“You’ve been working every day, so you don’t know what’s going on at home. Your mother isn’t just biased; she doesn’t even treat us as her family!”
Thinking of the grievances that Xia Wan had suffered, Yan Han’s voice also sounded a little aggrieved, causing Xia Hai to be dumbfounded.
He subconsciously asked, “What’s going on?” Did something happen while I was at work?”
