My minimum living allowance is credited to my account every day with 1000 million yuan

Han Xue's family is better off now; she bought a house for her parents when she came back last time.

It's a new apartment building in the city center, and the keys won't be handed over until next month, so they're still living in a rented place. Her mother works in property management; she used to do it to make a living, but now it's just to pass the time. Han Xue tried to persuade her to quit several times, but her mother said she was worried about things at home, and she couldn't help much at the fruit drink shop. She preferred to find something to do near home. Besides, once they move to the city center, the property management company there definitely wouldn't want her working there; she'd be "unemployed" and wouldn't be able to find work even if she wanted to. Therefore, Han Xue stopped trying to persuade her.

Chen Xiao could understand. The elderly had worked hard all their lives, and asking them to retire would be difficult for them to adjust to. Just like his own parents, they should have retired long ago and come to Jiangzhou to enjoy their retirement. But they were always reluctant to leave their jobs and their students, saying that retiring now would be irresponsible to the students, and they should at least stay with this class until the middle school entrance exam was over.

However, while she goes to work, her mindset has definitely changed. Han Xue's mother used to eagerly sign up for any overtime work that offered overtime pay. Now, she doesn't. Recently, there have been several opportunities to earn overtime pay, and some colleagues were even worried she'd snatch them away, but she remained unmoved, which puzzled everyone.

Everyone knows that Han's mother's family is struggling financially, so the property management sometimes helps her out, giving her opportunities to earn money whenever possible. Now that she's stopped competing, others have more opportunities.

hum-

Han's mother's phone rang. She picked it up and glanced at it; it was Old Han calling.

He picked up the phone and answered, "What? Xiaoxue and the others are coming over? Oh, okay, okay, I'll ask for leave right away and go home to cook."

After hanging up the phone, I prepared to ask my supervisor for leave.
"Sister Li, is your Xiaoxue back? It's been so long since I've seen her," a colleague asked from the side.

Han Xue has actually visited Tianning a few times recently. However, because she has work to handle, she is working in the presidential suite of the Junxiao Hotel. Her parents will be there to keep her company.

If Chen Xiao hadn't come, Han Xue's parents would probably have gone to the hotel again. Zhao Xiangjun, considering that it was Chen Xiao's first time meeting Han Xue's parents, let Chen Xiao come back with Han Xue.

"Yes, she's quite busy with work. She's come to Tianning a few times, and it's always been me and her dad who visit her."

My colleague said with envy, "Your Xiaoxue is really something. She worked part-time to help support the family when she was in school. Now that she's graduating soon, she's going to be a workaholic. If you ask me, you and Lao Han will be enjoying her good fortune from now on."

Han's mother smiled. Indeed, she was already enjoying the blessings of her daughter. If it weren't for her daughter, relying on Old Han and herself, they wouldn't know when they would ever be able to pay off so much debt in this lifetime.

"Hey, Sister Li, I mentioned this to you before. My husband's nephew is a graduate of Tsinghua or Peking University, and he's very handsome. Do you want to play matchmaker for him?"

Han's mother was startled. "No, no. My Xiaoxue has a boyfriend—"

"Oh my, so fast! Xiaoxue is so beautiful, you can't rush things when it comes to such an important life event."

Han's mother smiled and said, "Go ask your boss for leave. Can't you hurry? How can you not be anxious with such a good boyfriend?"

When the leader heard that it was her daughter's boyfriend coming to visit, he readily agreed, knowing that the Han family was poor, so he took extra care of them.

After Han's mother left, the property management staff started discussing again:

"Sister Zhao, it seems your husband's nephew has no chance. That girl Xiaoxue is too beautiful; many people are eyeing her. If you're too late, you'll be in trouble."

The woman called Sister Zhao, who had just been chatting with Han's mother and was about to introduce her husband's nephew to Han Xue, sighed: "My nephew saw Han Xue once when he came back last time, and he's been completely smitten ever since. He heard that Han Xue is in Jiangzhou, and he's even considering giving up his good job in the capital to go work in Jiangzhou."

"Your nephew is really a romantic. The capital is much better; it has much more room for development than Jiangzhou."

"He said that Jiangzhou is developing very well now, with several super-large enterprises. If you can get in, the development space is even greater than in the capital, and it's also close to home."

"What a pity, Xiaoxue already has a boyfriend."

"You can't say that, since they're not married yet, so it's possible. Besides, my nephew is very handsome and earns over 40 a year."

"Wow—that's impressive, 40! I'd work for 10 years!"

Sister Zhao said with some pride, "Otherwise, they would be talented people, while we can only be slaves."

Slaves? This metaphor is not quite right, but it is roughly accurate. Isn't what they do every day to serve others?
Sister Zhao added, "My nephew is only 28 years old, and he's already driving a BMW 5 Series. He's young and promising."

"I'm so envious. Speaking of which, I wish your son was like that."

Sister Zhao's face immediately fell. Wasn't this just bringing up a sore spot? Her son worked in a factory tightening screws, earning only 6 or 7 yuan a month. Otherwise, why would she always brag about her nephew and not her son?

As Zhao Jie and her colleagues were leaving get off work, they suddenly saw a tall, imposing black car pull into the gate. They didn't recognize the car, but it looked incredibly powerful and definitely wasn't cheap. Just then, they heard someone nearby exclaim, "Wow, a Rolls-Royce Phantom! That car must be worth almost 1000 million yuan. Why is it in our run-down neighborhood?"

Rolls-Royce Phantom? The legendary pinnacle of ultra-luxury cars? Sister Zhao and her colleagues exchanged bewildered glances.

"Sister Zhao, why is that car heading towards Sister Li's house? Xiaoxue's boyfriend is here, could it be his car?"

Sister Zhao chuckled, "You're joking! A car worth 1000 million! Not just any ordinary person can drive that. If Sister Li had a son-in-law like that, wouldn't she be able to handle everything at home? Why would she be working at the property management office?"

"Let's wait and see who gets out of the car. Why would such an important person come to our neighborhood?"

The Rolls-Royce Phantom stopped, and the person in the driver's seat jogged to the back seat and opened the door.
"The arrival of such an important person is truly ceremonial—"

"Hey, isn't that Sister Li and her husband Lao Han? They're coming out together?"

Sister Zhao's eyes narrowed, and she thought to herself, "No way?"

The rear door of the Rolls-Royce Phantom opened, and first a refined and handsome young man stepped out, followed by a beautiful woman with an aura as elegant as a plum blossom braving the snow. Who else could it be but Han Xue?

"My God, is he really Xiaoxue's boyfriend? Sister Li's family is going to be rich!"

Zhao's colleague whispered as she watched the young man greet Li and her husband before going upstairs together. Meanwhile, the female driver and a short-haired girl who got out of the passenger seat were busy unloading the items from the trunk and carrying them upstairs.

"Sister Zhao, your nephew probably doesn't have a chance."

Han Xue's family's current residence is indeed very dilapidated. It's a resettlement house, barely renovated, with only linoleum flooring and no plumbing or electrical work done. They probably rented it because it was cheap. "The house is so run-down," Old Han said, rubbing his hands, sounding somewhat awkward. Han's mother was even more at a loss for words.

Chen Xiao smiled and said, "Uncle, Auntie, my family used to be like this too."

In just one sentence, they were able to get closer to each other. It turned out that the big boss of Junxiao Group also came from a poor family when he was young.

"When he was a child?" Mr. and Mrs. Han exchanged a strange look. This Mr. Chen doesn't look that old now. How did he build such a large business at such a young age? Han Xue told him that his parents were teachers and didn't provide him with any financial support.

The house didn't even have a dining room; there was just a dining table in the living room. However, Han's mother was an excellent cook, and Chen Xiao ate with great relish.

The Han family used to live in a shabby place, but now that they're wealthy, their standard of living has improved significantly. In the past few months, they've paid off all their debts and even bought a house in the city center, with some financial support from Han Xue, of course. Otherwise, no matter how profitable Han's father's fruit drink shop was, it would have taken several months to raise 5 or 600 million yuan.

Han's father has a good alcohol tolerance. That night, he drank Moutai 50 years, which he usually doesn't drink, so he drank a few more cups. Han Xue had to stop him several times. Chen Xiao's alcohol tolerance is not good. She had driven for him a few times before when he drank, so she knew how much he could drink.
"It's alright, Han Xue, I'll have a couple more drinks with Uncle." Anyway, I'll rest when we get back to the hotel. It's just that I'm smelling of alcohol tonight, so I can't hug Xiang Jun because I'm afraid it will bother her.

Alcohol is the best way to bridge the gap between men. Han's parents were initially a little awkward, but after a few drinks, they immediately became like family. They even dared to call him "Little Chen"—which Chen Xiao had repeatedly insisted they do. Otherwise, calling him "President Chen" would have sounded strange to Chen Xiao.

Ding-dong-

The doorbell suddenly rang. Han's mother got up and said, "Who would come at this hour?"

He peeked through the peephole, paused in surprise, and opened the door: "Why are you here?"

Chen Xiao turned his head and saw a man in his fifties and a young man in his thirties enter the house, each carrying two boxes of pure milk.

Han's father stood up and called out, "Second Brother—"

Han Xue whispered to Chen Xiao, "My second uncle." She didn't get up or greet him. Chen Xiao knew that she still remembered how her uncle not only didn't help her family when they were down on their luck, but also took advantage of their misfortune to ridicule her parents.

It's better to get rid of relatives like that; Chen Xiao strongly supports her decision.

"Are there guests at home?"

Mr. Han introduced, "Xiaoxue's boyfriend, Mr. Chen—"

Chen Xiao stood up and greeted, "Hello, Second Uncle!" It was fine if Han Xue didn't greet him, but it seemed a bit impolite for him not to.

Uncle Er frowned, then nodded indifferently. "Little Chen, right? It's nothing, you guys eat." His coldness towards Chen Xiao made Old Han even more unhappy. Who do you think you are? This is my house. Besides, what gives you the audacity to be displeased with President Chen? Who do you think you are?
Old Han was already dissatisfied with him, and now he simply plopped down in his chair again, saying, "Come on, let's continue drinking—"

Mother Han wasn't happy either, but since they were already home, there was no reason to turn them away. She asked them to sit on the sofa and inquired, "Second Brother, what brings you here this time?"

"Your business is doing really well now, so why are you still living in this shabby house? The sofa even has a hole in it."

Chen Xiao listened to his condescending tone and glanced at Han Xue, whose face was now frosty.

"Xiaoxue has a boyfriend now, but she doesn't even greet her second uncle when she sees him—"

This was a direct accusation that Han Xue was impolite. Before Han Xue could even speak, her mother became displeased, saying, "Second brother, what brings you here? The house is rather messy, and it's not convenient to entertain you."

The second uncle turned to Han's mother and said, "It's nothing. I heard you opened a few fruit drink shops in Junwu Plaza. I went to take a look, and business is pretty good."

"Oh—", Han's mother responded indifferently.

Chen Xiao dislikes being interrupted while eating, as it kills his appetite. He puts down his chopsticks and cup, but the sofa is too small, and he doesn't want to sit with his second uncle, so he stays at the dining table.

His second uncle glanced at him and asked, "What does Xiao Chen's family do?"

Chen Xiao gave a standard answer, "Both my parents are teachers—"

"Teachers, that's not bad. You'll have a pension after retirement, so you won't have any burdens in the future—"

The Han couple were speechless. What financial burden did Chen Xiao have? If he did have a burden, who could bear it?

Chen Xiao smiled faintly, not responding to his words. However, her second uncle added, "Our Xiaoxue is so beautiful, countless rich young men would be scrambling for her. I didn't expect her to be dating so early—"

Han's father's expression changed upon hearing this. Han Xue stood up angrily, "My affairs are none of your concern—"

Now that she's the chairwoman of Junxiao Supermarket, she exudes an aura of authority when she gets angry, which actually instilled a sense of fear in her second uncle, leaving him speechless and unable to accuse Han Xue of insubordination.

Han's father's face had already turned cold by now. He asked, "Second brother, what business do you have here? If you're here to interfere in our family's affairs, then I'm sorry, the Han family does not welcome you."

The second uncle was probably a little unaccustomed to it, as his usually honest and unassuming brother-in-law and sister were now glaring at him angrily. If it weren't for the fact that the Han family's business was doing well, he would have left long ago, or rather, he wouldn't have come at all.

"I've come to see you about a small matter—" Finally, they got to the point.

Chen Xiao winked at Han Xue, signaling her not to be angry. He said, "You can just ignore your second uncle. It's really not worth getting angry over someone like him."

“I see that your fruit drink shop is doing quite well. Li Chuan happens to be free right now, so I’ll sell half of your shop to him and let him come and help you. In return, you can quickly cash out and solve your family’s financial problems.”

Chen Xiao was dumbfounded. He had thought Han Xue's description of her second uncle on the way there was strange, but now it seemed that he was not just strange, he was an idiot.

Han's father sneered, "Second brother, does my family owe you anything? Now that your business is doing well, you want to get involved? I used to run a leather goods business, and I was almost bankrupt. I asked you to invest, and you didn't contribute a single penny!" (End of Chapter)
