Chapter 524: Chapter 507: Ten Thousand Per Person_2
Seeing his actions, everyone felt puzzled.
Wang Lin didn’t keep them in suspense and told them, “Dad, Mom, I’ve also just told Big Brother and Second Brother that I didn’t actually go to work in a factory but went to Hong Kong to be a bodyguard for a wealthy person. The pay is good, but it’s very dangerous.”
“Five months ago, my boss was targeted by kidnappers, and to protect him, all four of us bodyguards were injured. My injuries were minor, and after resting for a bit over a month, I got better.”
Worried that Mother Wang would be concerned, he rolled up his sleeve, pointed to a scar on his arm, and said, “I hurt my arm, but it’s nothing, it’s already healed…”
Before he could finish speaking, Mother Wang, with tears streaming down her face, grabbed his hand and said, “Linzi, let’s not do this anymore, let’s not.”
Wang Lin shook his head and said, “Mom, this is all I know how to do; otherwise, I can only go back to farming. But my household registration was moved too late, and I don’t have any land; how could I make a living if I return? Not to ntion getting married?”
Father Wang didn’t say a word and just kept smoking his cigarette with a popping sound.
Wang Lin picked up the duffel bag from the ground, placed it on the table, unzipped it, then took out a bundle tightly wrapped in newspaper.
He used scissors to cut the string tying the bundle and then tore off the newspaper, revealing a thick stack of money inside. It was all brand-new One Hundred Yuan Bills, providing an overwhelming visual impact.
The whole family was stunned.
With great concern, Father Wang asked, “Lin, Linzi, where did you get all this money?”
Wang Lin smiled and said, “Our boss is generous. Seeing how we got hurt protecting him, he gave us a reward. Brother Feng, who was the most severely injured, got a reward of two hundred thousand, and I received fifty thousand because my injury was lighter.”
He sighed and said, “Big Brother, Second Brother, Sister Wang, I know each of you has your own difficulties. I’ll give ten thousand yuan to each of you, whether you use it for building houses or doing so small business, it’s up to you.”
The mont Second Brother Wang heard this, he hurriedly said, “How can that be okay? That’s the money you’ve put your life on the line for, keep it for yourself.”
Big Brother Wang also said, “Linzi, now that you have money, let’s have Mom look into getting you married sooner so you can have a couple of kids. There’s sothing to look forward to in life then.”
Big Brother Wang’s Wife and Second Brother Wang’s Wife wished they could block their mouths.
Wang Lin said with a smile, “Big Brother, Second Brother, Sister Wang, Little Sister Wang, in our line of work, we might encounter danger any day. This money isn’t just to improve your lives, but also in case sothing happens to , then Dad and Mom will depend on you.”
Upon hearing this, Mother Wang started crying again, “My boy, let’s not do this anymore, can we not?”
Father Wang knew that his son was stubborn and wouldn’t change his decision, “A few days ago, you said you’d marry and have kids after five years. Do you an to keep doing this for another five years?”
Wang Lin nodded and said, “Yes, another five years. By then, I’ll have saved up a considerable sum, enough to live without worries even if I don’t do anything at all.”
“Dad, Mom, Big Brother, Second Brother, Sister Wang, if I’m safe and sound, I definitely want to marry a girl from the city, so there’s no need to arrange anything for .”
Seeing that both sister-in-laws’ eyes were glued to the money, he took a stack and handed it to Big Brother Wang’s Wife, “Sister-in-law, ten thousand yuan for each person, take good care of this money.”
Big Brother Wang’s Wife shakily accepted the money, followed by Second Brother Wang’s Wife, Sister Wang, and Little Sister Wang. All four of them had trembling hands as they took the money.
Wang Lin had brought fifty thousand yuan this ti, intending to give each of his five siblings ten thousand. But since Xiao Wu was acting shalessly, naturally, he wouldn’t get a share.
The remaining ten thousand yuan Wang Lin did not give to his parents, but to Big Brother Wang’s Wife instead, saying, “Big Sister-in-law, keep this money with you, so that if father and mother get sick in the future, we can use it to cover their dical expenses.”
Upon hearing the money was for their parents’ future dical needs, Second Brother Wang’s Wife had nothing to say.
“Alright.”
Wang Lin reminded them, “Deposit this money in the savings office tomorrow! Not only can you earn high interest, but it’s also safer. Keeping it at ho might attract thieves if the word gets out.”
Second Brother Wang’s Wife said, “Our ho is too small, we can’t fit everyone in, so I’m planning to build a house with your second brother. We applied for the foundation land last year and are going to reserve bricks and tiles tomorrow.”
Wang Lin gave his suggestions, whether they listened or not was up to them.
That night, all three brothers drank until they were completely inebriated. Only Father Wang found the wine in his cup bitter and tossed and turned in his bed, unable to sleep. Mother Wang felt the sa, distressed that her son was working such a dangerous job and unable to stop him, her heart ached as if it were being cut by a knife.
The next day, after breakfast, Wang Lin left, dressed in the sa semi-old clothes and carrying the sa semi-old suitcase. However, the villagers found it strange that the entire Wang family saw him off.
After Wang Lin left, the curious villagers asked what was going on, why Wang Lin received such high treatnt this ti when he left. The Wang family mbers only said they couldn’t bear to say goodbye to their brother, without divulging any more details.
That very day, Second Brother Wang’s Wife’s family finalized the order for bricks, tiles, and wood, and other materials for building their house, and soon after, news spread that Big Brother Wang and Little Sister Wang had bought a shop in the county town. And not just that, Sister Wang and Wang’s Eldest Sister’s Husband also bought a plot of land to build a house.
With such major moves from the four siblings, it was clear to everyone that it must have been Wang Lin who gave them the money, otherwise how could they afford to build houses and purchase shops? Especially Sister Wang, whose honest and simple husband wasn’t able to make much money and was even looked down upon by their parents, had always lived a hard life.
Upon hearing the news, Wang Wu returned ho to ask his parents. When he got there, neither Father Wang nor Mother Wang was at ho, only Little Sister Wang and the two children were there.
When he asked about the money, Little Sister Wang said, “Yes, Third Brother gave each of us ten thousand yuan, Big Brother and I bought a shop-front house in town, planning to start a business together next year.”
She excelled at making snacks and was planning to sell pastries then. As for what Big Sister-in-law intended to sell, she was not sure. Big Sister-in-law hadn’t said, so she didn’t ask.
Wang Xiaowu asked anxiously, “My money, where’s my money? Could it be that father and mother are holding onto it?”
Little Sister Wang scoffed and said, “Third Brother said, since you don’t acknowledge father and mother, then it is as if you do not exist in this family. So not only do you not have a share of this money, but you also won’t have any part in the family property in the future.”
Wang Xiaowu was both anxious and angry, “Why? I am also a son of this family.”
Little Sister Wang scoffed and replied, “Because you let your nephew change his surna to Wen, because you are heartless and cold-blooded, not showing your face even when father was hospitalized and recuperating for three months.”
Not being satisfied with just that, she added, “Third Brother has already promised to find work for Shunzi and the others in Peng City once they turn eighteen. You better stay with the Wen Family and be a filial son-in-law, and stop thinking about the family’s money and property. Coveting it won’t do you any good.”
Wang Xiaowu went to Mother Wang in search of the money, but was chased out by Father Wang who got wind of the situation and returned ho. Father Wang declared he did not recognize this son and said if he ever ca back, he would directly break his dog legs.
