Renting a young, attractive woman to take home for the Chinese New Year infuriates the entire villag

By the time I got home, it was completely dark.

On the way back, Jiang Chen bought some food. As soon as the family finished eating, his father grabbed his arm and eagerly pulled him into Jiang Chen's bedroom, locking the door behind him.

"sit down!"

My dad, his face dark, lit a cigarette. Through the swirling smoke, his eyes were frighteningly sharp.

"Chenchen, there are no outsiders in this house, tell Dad the truth."

"Where did this sum of over ten million come from?"

"If you got this from northern Myanmar or through fraud, you'd better run away now. Don't go to Southeast Asia, go to the Ugly Country."

Jiang Chen looked at his father's trembling hands, feeling both amused and exasperated.

She quickly pulled up a chair and sat down, launching into her prepared lines: "Dad, what are you thinking! Do you think I'm that kind of person?"

Actually, I won this money by gambling.

"Gambling?" Dad's brows furrowed instantly.

"You were gambling outside?"

Seeing his father's expression, Jiang Chen quickly explained, "It's not the kind of gambling you're thinking of, it's financial investment."

Jiang Chen was talking nonsense with a straight face:

"A couple of years ago, it was popular to speculate on virtual currencies online, so I spent several thousand yuan to buy a fake coin."

"The result was several hundred times higher."

"Then I took out that money and bought gold. As a result, the international situation became turbulent, and gold prices skyrocketed, doubling in value."

"Later, there was a general election in the United States, right? I thought that old man named Lao Pu would win, so I used all the money I had to buy coins related to his family."

Jiang Chen spoke with great enthusiasm and vivid description:

"Back then, that coin had just come out and was practically worthless, so I just held onto it and held on!"

"As it turned out, he was elected, and the price of the coin skyrocketed, increasing several thousand times over."

"When I saw that it was almost done, I really didn't dare to be greedy, so I sold it all the day before he took office."

"After I sold it, the price dropped, but I already had the money. So I immediately bought silver futures..."

"Just like that, the money multiplied several times, hundreds of times, thousands of times. I've almost lost count of the money in my hands. Anyway, if we spend 100 million a year, we can still live on it for decades."

hiss--

My dad was stunned. Although he didn't understand most of the terms, he could still understand "double" and "thousands of times".

Even if it's just a few thousand dollars, if it multiplies by hundreds or thousands of times, it would still amount to hundreds of millions.

In other words, his son is a billionaire?

My dad's lips were trembling.

He had also heard that some people in the village were playing with some kind of cryptocurrency, and at first they were quite smug, saying they could earn several thousand yuan a day.

But in the end, he lost everything and was heavily in debt, and he didn't even dare to go home.

My wife has been threatening to divorce me.

Unexpectedly, his son actually won the bet, and won a huge amount of money!

Seeing that his father remained silent, Jiang Chen explained again, "Dad, although cryptocurrency trading isn't entirely legal, we can't just confiscate it directly."

"Cryptocurrency trading is risky, but it can also be highly rewarding."

"I admit there was an element of gambling involved, but clearly, I won the bet."

"Of course, we've already earned enough, so there's no need to go through all that trouble. That's why I've invested all my money in stablecoins, which are essentially equivalent to US dollars. If I want to spend money, I can easily liquidate some."

"From now on, let's just enjoy life in a down-to-earth manner."

Hearing that he wouldn't play anymore, Dad let out a long sigh of relief, as if a huge burden had been lifted off his shoulders.

"It's good that you stopped, it's good that you stopped!"

"Now that we're not short of money, you absolutely must never touch this stuff again. You only get this kind of luck once in a lifetime; playing it again is just asking for trouble."

At the same time, he was also wondering if Sun Mengjia was right.

My second aunt is a jinx; she brings bad luck to everyone around her.

Otherwise, how would they stay in the village? There's always this or that problem, and none of them can save any money.

On the contrary, most of those who left the county and went to other places to make a living ended up doing better and better.

Seeing his father's expression relax, Jiang Chen smiled and said, "Dad, don't always ask me, I'll ask you too."

"What's wrong with me?" Dad snapped out of his reverie about persuading his brother to get a divorce.

"Why do I feel like your attitude towards Jiajia is different today?"

"Didn't you tell me to break up with her and send her to school? Why do you seem different after we looked at the house?"

"You even said that the house was for me to live with her. You're going to take her in as your goddaughter, how could it be appropriate for me to live with her?"

Dad's lips twitched: "Isn't it a case of times changing?"

Dad's eyes deepened: "I didn't know you were so rich before. I always thought we were just an ordinary working-class family, and that you would just be an office worker in the future."

"For a family like this, you definitely need to find a stable, reliable, hardworking girl who can live with you through thick and thin."

"Jiajia has a wild personality, is young and unsettled, and doesn't work. This kind of person is not someone that an ordinary family can handle."

Dad changed the subject:

"But things are different now."

"Now that you're rich, you can buy five million worth of fireworks outright, and you can buy a multi-million dollar mansion without batting an eye."

"Given our family's current financial situation, do we really need to find a wife to help us earn money?"

"Do you really need to find someone to share the role of wife and mother with you?"

"Since you're not short of money, you'd be perfect for someone like Jiajia!"

Jiang Chen was bewildered: "Why?"

"Because she doesn't take offense! Because she's straightforward and doesn't hide anything! Because she's fiercely protective of her own!"

My father said earnestly:

"Now that you're rich, there will be more people eyeing our family's wealth. Shameless relatives like your second aunt and your eldest uncle will only increase in number."

"If you had married a girl like Xiaoxue, all she does is talk and reason, our family would have been torn to pieces!"

"Although Jiajia has a quick temper, she is straightforward and dares to fight."

"She would fight for you, she would risk her life for our family."

"She can't stand the slightest thing, she's so easily angered. For an ordinary family, that's like a ticking time bomb; she might cause a huge disaster at any moment. In ordinary life, people just turn a blind eye, and what's done is done."

"But we're a family now, why should we put up with their fancy ways?"

"Our family needs a girl like this right now—rich but not wasteful, and also a feisty one—to take charge and teach those envious fools a lesson!"

"If you can't afford to marry someone like that, it's a misfortune for your family. She'll cause trouble and offend people everywhere, and you'll have to clean up her messes for the rest of your life."

"But if you have the money to marry someone like that, she'll be a treasure to bring good fortune to your household."

Jiang Chen was stunned, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

"Dad, where did you learn all this so well...?"

Is this the legendary case of the economic base determining the superstructure?

After hearing what he said, it seems like this energetic young lady is not bad?

But the thought of having tattoos all over his arm made Jiang Chen feel a little uncomfortable.

Perhaps, it would be nice to just be her girlfriend and not get married?

Since I already have a system and I'm so rich, why do I need to be monogamous?

check!

You must get a medical checkup!

Just as the father and son were having a very pleasant conversation...

"Bang!"

Suddenly, a loud bang came from the large iron gate of the courtyard, as if it had been kicked hard.

Immediately afterwards, a loud shout rang out.

"Jiang Chen! Come out here!"

Jiang Chen frowned and looked out the window.

Qiangzi entered the courtyard with his uncle and aunt.

Behind him followed a middle-aged man with his hands behind his back; he was the village chief of his uncle's village.

A group of people stormed into the courtyard.

As soon as my aunt entered the yard, she sat down on the ground and started throwing a tantrum: "Hand over my parents! You're kidnapping elderly people! This is illegal and a crime!"

Qiangzi pointed at the door and shouted, "Jiang Chen, you bastard, hand over my grandparents!"

Dad's face darkened: "I knew they'd cause trouble."

"It's Chinese New Year. Not to mention that Qiangzi is bringing his girlfriend back, everyone who wants to pay New Year's visits has to go to your maternal grandmother's house."

"They definitely have to come and pick up your grandparents before the New Year to make a good impression, otherwise your daughter-in-law will look down on them, and the villagers will gossip about them."

"They don't maintain it normally, but only remember to take it in when they need it?"

"I'll make sure he doesn't get to pick it up today!"

As he spoke, Dad was about to rush outside.

Jiang Chen also stood up, his eyes cold.

These people are really persistent.

However, before the father and son could even push open the bedroom door...

A loud crash followed!

The main gate of the main room, which faced the courtyard, was suddenly pushed open from the inside.

A petite figure, like a fierce tiger descending the mountain, rushed out with a menacing aura.

It was Sun Mengjia.

At this moment, she was wearing a pink cinnamon dog pajama set, but the sleeves were rolled up high, revealing her fierce and domineering tattooed arm.

She carried a gleaming kitchen knife in her left hand and a rolling pin in her right.

Standing on the steps, looking down at his uncle and the others with a rolling pin:

"What are you yelling about!"

"Where did this bastard come from, daring to yell and shout in my house? They're all asking for trouble!"

"Xiaoxue, call the police!"

"Sue them for trespassing!"

"I'm telling you this: if any of you dare take a single step forward today, I'll teach them a lesson they won't forget!"
