Chapter 310 Unique and Irreplaceable

Knowing that Jiang Moli loves oranges, Ma Hongmei specially cut a plate of them, peeled them, and served them to Jiang Moli.

"Jasmine, have some oranges."

"Okay, Auntie's oranges are the sweetest!"

Seeing her enjoying the food, Ma Hongmei smiled with particular satisfaction and contentment.

Although Lu Tingting admired Jiang Moli's methods, she couldn't stand the whole family spoiling Jiang Moli. She reached for a piece of orange and ate it while arguing with Jiang Moli:
"Your grandparents aren't even dead yet, and you're already eyeing their inheritance? Have you no shame?"

Jiang Moli, eating an orange, replied, "You don't understand. What you're thinking about now is called family property; once they're gone, it's called inheritance. I can't just wish for their early demise for money, can I?"

Lu Tingting was stunned.

It makes sense, but I can't refute it.

Lu Dezhao and An Hui both glanced at Jiang Moli silently: You're quite filial, aren't you?

……

After washing up, I returned to my room.

Jiang Moli took a dollar out of her wallet and gave it to Lu Tingting.

Lu Tingting not only refused to take the money, but also cautiously put her hands behind her back, as if the money was a hot potato.

Why are you giving me money?

“From now on, I will give you one yuan every day. In the morning, you can take your great-grandmother out to the park. If she likes to play with those old men and women who do morning exercises, you can let her play by herself. You can find a place to have breakfast, and then bring her back.”

"What if it rains?"

"It hasn't rained these past few days."

Lu Tingting calculated that breakfast would cost three mao, leaving her with seven mao.

Not a loss!

Seeing that she had taken the money, Jiang Moli pinched her soft cheeks and said, "Good girl, go to sleep early and get up early tomorrow. I've already set your alarm."

Lu Tingting rubbed her face, put the money in her wallet, and happily took off her clothes and lay down in bed.

Just as I closed my eyes, I heard Jiang Moli beside me say, "Go turn off the light."

She opened her eyes. "Why should I be the one to shut it off? Why aren't you shutting it off?"

Jiang Moli smiled at her, "You turned off the darkest light."

Under the warm orange light, the woman's skin was like jade, her eyebrows and eyes like paintings, and her smiling face was exceptionally charming and captivating.

Lu Tingting got out of bed in a daze and turned off the light. She only realized what was happening after she crawled back into bed.

That damned woman, all she knows how to do is order her around!

The room was dark, the bed was warm, and the blankets were soft, but Lu Tingting couldn't fall asleep.

"Hey, are you asleep?"

"If you can't sleep, go count sheep."

"Why count sheep? Can't I just count rabbits?"

"If you say another word, I'll gag you with your stinky socks."

"My feet don't smell, and my socks don't smell either!"

After Lu Tingting finished speaking, she waited a while and, seeing that Jiang Moli ignored her, couldn't help but ask the question that had been on her mind:

"Aren't you afraid people will gossip about you behind your back and say you're unfilial to your elders if you treat your great-grandmother like this?"

Jiang Moli murmured sleepily, "I don't mind being disliked. It's the desire to be liked that's a weakness, and I don't have that weakness."

"People around you slander you because they can't benefit from you. And gaining others' approval often comes at the cost of sacrificing their own interests..."

The sound grew softer and softer, clearly indicating that the person had fallen asleep.

Lu Tingting didn't make a sound to bother her anymore, but silently pondered the words she had just heard.

She used to not understand why her third uncle, such an outstanding man, would fall for the lazy and good-for-nothing Jiang Moli.

But now she seems to understand.

Some people are unique and irreplaceable.

……

The next day, Jiang Moli was awakened by a series of banging sounds.

She opened her eyes and saw that it was still dark. She turned on the bedside lamp, picked up the alarm clock from the bedside table, and saw it was only 5 a.m. She nudged Lu Tingting, who was fast asleep.

Lu Tingting mumbled something, turned over, and continued to sleep soundly.

She put on her coat, opened the door, and saw Zhu Huanghua standing at the door of An Hui and Lu Dezhao's room, knocking on the door with a cane in her hand.

"You lazy bum, get up and cook breakfast! Do you want to starve me to death?!"

Jiang Moli suppressed her morning grumpiness and walked over, taking the cane from Zhu Huanghua's hand and throwing it aside.

"Grandma, are you rushing to be reincarnated so early?"

Zhu Huanghua glared at her, panting heavily with anger.

Zhu Huanghua's commotion woke up Ma Hongmei, An Hui, and Lu Dezhao.

Ma Hongmei originally planned to cook noodles for Zhu Huanghua, but Zhu Huanghua insisted on eating steamed buns, so Lu Dezhao had to go out and buy some.

I served Zhu Huanghua breakfast, and it was exactly six o'clock.

Jiang Moli pulled Lu Tingting up and made her push Zhu Huanghua to the park for a stroll.

Lu Tingting was clearly unhappy, but for the sake of the money, she still pushed Zhu Huanghua out the door.

The whole family then understood Jiang Moli's purpose in having her granddaughter stay with them, and they couldn't help but secretly praise Jiang Moli for her thoughtfulness.

With my granddaughter helping out with some of the care, everyone can have an easier time.

However, it's quite surprising that the granddaughter, who is also lazy, would actually listen to Jiang Moli.

Jiang Moli yawned deeply. "Mom and Dad, Aunt, it's still early, go back to sleep."

"Hey, okay."

After watching Jiang Moli return to her room, An Hui, Lu Dezhao, and Ma Hongmei also went back to their rooms to rest.

……

As Jiang Moli instructed, Lu Tingting pushed Zhu Huanghua to the park, letting Zhu Huanghua join a group of elderly people doing morning exercises. She herself found a breakfast stall, ordered soy milk, fried dough sticks, and fried glutinous rice cakes, and sat down to eat them happily.

Hot soy milk, with its rich soy aroma and sweetness, is a truly exquisite treat on a cold morning.

Soy milk costs five cents, fried dough sticks and fried glutinous rice cakes each cost ten cents, totaling twenty-five cents, from which she can save seventy-five cents.

75 cents a day, 7.5 yuan in ten days, and 22.5 yuan a month!
Isn't this much better than going to work?

in the park.

Zhu Huanghua talked animatedly with the newly acquainted old men and women: "My life is so hard. I raised my youngest son with great difficulty, but that son of a bitch forgot his mother after he got married. He lets his wife and daughter-in-law bully an old woman like me."

"They wouldn't give me food, they scalded me with boiling water, and they even tried to beat me. I've suffered so much..."

As Zhu Huanghua recounted her story, the old men and women all showed indignation on their faces.

This younger generation is too vicious! To mistreat an old person like this is utterly heartless!
"Disdain value +8, 80000 yuan credited."

After the old men and women went home, they told their families and neighbors about Zhu Huanghua's "pitiful plight".

In one morning, Jiang Moli earned more than thirty dislike points.

Jiang Moli exclaimed: "This isn't a wicked grandmother, this is her chosen beast of burden!"
……

For lunch, Ma Hongmei stewed a pot of old hen soup, and also chopped up a piece of chicken breast with skin on and cooked porridge for Zhu Huanghua.

Having learned her lesson from yesterday, Zhu Huanghua didn't nitpick anymore and finished the whole bowl of chicken soup porridge.

Zhu Huanghua has a habit of taking a nap in the afternoon, and she went back to her room after lunch.

After Jiang Moli finished eating, she went out for a while and returned with four or five workers.

As soon as the workers arrived, they started clearing the vegetable garden. After clearing it, they compacted the ground and laid stone slabs on it.

The neighbors all came to see what was going on.

"Sister Hui, this vegetable garden is so nice. The vegetables you grow every year are so fresh and juicy. Why did you turn it upside down?"

Anhui is a master at growing vegetables. Every year, she grows so many vegetables that she can't eat them all, so she shares a lot with her neighbors.

Everyone felt very sorry to see the vegetable garden being cleared away.

We won't be able to eat free food anymore.

An Hui explained one by one: "The third son's wife wants to build a garden, put up a ping-pong table, install a basketball hoop, and plant some flowers and plants so that the children can come and play."

An Hui has always cherished her vegetable garden; she would definitely not allow it to be anyone else.

But she agreed to Jiang Moli's suggestion without hesitation.
