After returning from my cultivation journey, I built a farm through fortune telling.

Chapter 6: Can we really take advantage of my cousin's family?
Bai Lu is twenty-six years old this year.

She's not one to move around easily. Since starting her internship during her senior year of college, she's been working hard to support the Sanshui boss's wonderful life. Just last month, the Sanshui boss finally moved to a villa in the city center and even bought a new car.

To be fair, the boss in Sanshui is a very conscientious boss. He knows that rent is expensive for employees, so the company provides accommodation!
However, meals are not included.

Bai Lu stayed in the dormitory, which saved her a lot of money. Even so, after deducting her own expenses and the money she gave to her parents every month after her salary increased in the past two years, Bai Lu only saved 110,000 yuan in more than four years of work.

So after she made up the 100,000 yuan shortfall for the house purchase, she was left with 10,000 yuan. Adding her salary for the past two months—without this compensation, Bailu's entire net worth would only be a little over 30,000 yuan.

Although Qin Xiu had a slight bias towards boys, she didn't take too much advantage of her daughter. She added her daughter's name to the property certificate—Bai Wei didn't pay, so naturally her name wasn't on the property certificate.

All I heard Qin Xiu say was, "We have thirty pigs at home that are ready for market. I'm thinking of selling them and then buying Chenchen a new car. You know Chenchen's old car, it cost five thousand yuan. It's a twenty-year-old car, and it's always breaking down. The repair costs are more than the purchase price."

How much are pork prices now?

Bai Lu doesn't know much about live pig prices right now, but she can't help wondering—can thirty pigs buy a car now? Are cars too cheap or pigs too expensive?

"The price of pork is plummeting like crazy!"

Qin Xiu got angry when she talked about this: "Yesterday it was 8.5 yuan, but today it's only 8.3 yuan! Luckily, our pig Boss Zhu ordered it a long time ago and can give us 8.6 yuan. We should sell it as soon as possible. If we wait any longer, there won't be any left at 8 yuan."

"What kind of car did you buy? Is the money from selling the pigs enough?!"

—What brand is the new car? It costs seventy or eighty thousand yuan?
"Let me show you the picture. Look, it's white, quite big, tall, and a gas car. Chenchen said that after deducting the old car trade-in subsidy and other discounts, it's a total of 120,000!"

Qin Xiu immediately pulled out her phone with great excitement, showed the picture to Bai Lu, and her face was beaming with joy!

His face was glowing!

Bai Lu kept looking at Qin Xiu, and suddenly noticed that Qin Xiu's face changed drastically after she showed her the picture of the new car—her wealth palace was glowing red!

This foreshadows financial loss in the near future!

120,000!

That means you'll lose money!

wrong--

Aside from the 70,000 to 80,000 yuan from selling the pigs, the family definitely didn't have any savings of 50,000 to 60,000 yuan!
Bai Lu opened her phone camera and looked at her "wealth palace," which is the tip of her nose. She found that a hard pimple had grown there at some point, and it was painful to touch!

She just induced qi into her body, how could she possibly have pimples!

Her financial losses were far more severe than her mother's!
But that’s not right!
Even if she were willing to help, the maximum she could afford would be fifty or sixty thousand yuan. How could she possibly lose more money than her mother?
unless……

Bai Lu stared at her mother with dead fish eyes: "You want me to pay the full amount for Bai Chen's car?!"

—She still has some money left from working herself to the bone, enough to buy a car outright, but why should she? She hasn't even driven her new car yet! Why should Bai Chen get to do this?!

Be a decent human being, Mom!

If Qin Xiu dares to speak, Bai Lu will be angry!

She, Bailu, was never the type to be a brother-supporting demon—she would only pay for a house if her name was added to it. Now that she has experienced the world of cultivation, she is even less likely to be a brother-supporting demon!
You must understand that in the world of cultivation, even the slightest connection between our righteous sects and demons will not end well!
"Mom isn't asking you for money! Besides, do you think I don't know how much money you have? At most, it's around 30,000 yuan. Even if you empty your pockets, you'll still be short half!" Qin Xiu knew exactly what Bai Lu was thinking. Although she favored her younger son, she wasn't the type to exploit her daughter. She angrily slapped Bai Lu.

Egret: "..."

You still say you weren't after my money?! How do you know so much money I have left?!
wrong!

—If you didn't ask me for money, why would I lose so much money?!
The egret begins its calculations—

However, it doesn't reveal anything.

The fates of relatives are difficult to predict, and her cultivation level is currently very low.

Qin Xiu watched Bai Lu playing with her fingers in a daze, but didn't pay any attention. She said, "Don't worry, I won't ask you for money. Your aunt has some money. She transferred 60,000 to me. Your brother saved 30,000 after working for more than a year. Add the money from selling the pigs, and it's enough."

Bai Lu pursed her lips: "Mom, isn't it a bit unfair of us to only take advantage of my cousin's family?"

Qin Xiu herself was a little embarrassed: "I didn't ask your cousin for it. Your aunt gave it to me on her own initiative. She said that Chenchen is growing up and will need to buy a car sooner or later when he gets married. She said that the sooner he buys it, the sooner he can drive it. She said she is not in a hurry to use the money."

What's the difference between my maternal aunt and my cousin?
What an unusual family!
Egret: "Does your cousin-in-law have any objections?"

Cousin Qin Xu was always willing to help Bai Lu with her affairs and provide financial assistance. Bai Lu didn't know what her cousin's wife, An Lin, was like in private, but on the surface, she was always very friendly to her mother and addressed her as "aunt" very affectionately.

“Your cousin’s wife has no objection. She said that the money was given to your aunt and how she spends it is her business. She said that if she is willing to give it, I will take it.”

The egret smiled helplessly.

Of course, what could my cousin-in-law say?
Are you suggesting I tell you directly, "We've already lent your family 200,000 yuan for the house, and you still want to borrow another 60,000 yuan? Have some shame!"

My aunt had no objections, my cousin had no objections, so even if she had objections, they were now considered to be neutral.

“But your cousin-in-law told me that when Chenchen gets married, we originally prepared 200,000 yuan for his wedding, but we lent it to us to buy a house. We won’t be able to come up with that much money when Chenchen gets married, since three children are studying in Shanghai and the expenses are high. But she told me not to worry, and that your aunt and third aunt have already prepared it.”

The egret must be devastated.

Every time she heard her mother talk about her maternal uncles, aunts, and other relatives, she couldn't help but sigh with gratitude.

What an amazing relative!

Poverty alleviation isn't just something the government is doing; they're doing it too! And it's targeted poverty alleviation!

"So the current situation is—my cousin's family lent our family another 60,000 yuan, so we owe my cousin a total of 260,000 yuan. Are you trying to tell me that I should help Bai Chen pay all of this money back in the future?"

Bai Lu glared at Qin Xiu, ready to get angry if she dared to say yes!

Two hundred and sixty thousand, sixty thousand more valuable than her life!!
This is exactly what you call losing a fortune!
"Give you back my head!" Qin Xiu scolded her, "I haven't finished speaking, what's the rush!"

She sighed, "What Mom meant was that we have a lot of debt right now. Mom isn't asking you and Weiwei to pay off much of the debt, but as parents, it's our responsibility to buy Chenchen a house and help him get married."
