Did you really think getting rich was that easy?
Huaishi Village was remote, and the mountain’s resources weren’t abundant. The only thing worth selling in the entire village was the sugarcane on the mountain. Without that route, it was practically a dead end for the villagers to get rich.
You have to understand, the male and female leads had spent over half a month just barely coming up with this one way out.
Sneaking a glance at her host’s expression, the system trembled slightly.
Sure enough, no matter who you offend, you can’t afford to offend a woman.
The key was that her host really rembered grudges.
Cutting off soone’s money source was no different from killing their parents.
And yet, it was so naive back then to think that if the host didn’t go to the countryside, she was just letting those people off.
With Teacher Ye leading the way, the job transfer went especially smoothly. The fact proved that jobs were indeed in high demand these days. Seeing the middle-aged woman in a worn gray-blue work uniform, her face weathered but full of gratitude, An Ning calmly accepted the scattered 900 yuan in the cloth bag—obviously money gathered at the last minute.
This auntie really should be thankful to her.
After all, she had skillfully helped her son avoid becoming a huge burden and a tragic love fool!
“All right, auntie, whenever Jiang’s classmate is free, I can go handle the transfer anyti.”
“Ah, okay, okay.” Jiang Xiuhua was excited, occasionally glancing at An Ning on the way:
“This young girl is really amazing. I heard she was specially recruited by the nearby Anhua Factory. We’re all in the sa class, so why doesn’t our Ah Huai have this ability!”
An Ning just smiled: “I’m only sowhat talented in math.”
Of course, she couldn’t be modest now—she didn’t want others thinking her job ca from shady channels.
Jealousy was everywhere.
“By the way, host, Jiang Huai was just sneaking a look at you! His face was almost red!”
“I think actually, host, you might want to consider it. This male supporting character will be quite powerful in the future—one of the first big shots to succeed in going into business in that era!”
Also, male supporting characters usually ca with intense loyalty as standard.
An Ning: “……”
“What are you joking about? Seriously, stop watching so many fairy tales, system.” An Ning sincerely advised.
Does she really think everyone is Bai Suzhen?
An Ning was not opposed to marriage, but the fundantal prerequisite was that her quality of life wouldn’t be affected because of it.
Jiang Huai, the original body’s benefactor, though born into a dual-inco family, had four or five children. Otherwise, as the eldest son, he wouldn’t have only one path in the original storyline—to go to the countryside.
Clearly, the parents only cared that one job was enough, but compared to a senior technician, a newcor taking over would definitely earn much less. For the sake of the other children in the family, they painfully asked the eldest to go down to the countryside.
From the original body’s mories, Jiang Huai had no complaints after going to the countryside, showing that he still cared deeply for his younger brothers and sisters.
In such a family, what was she marrying into? Targeted poverty alleviation?
Or becoming the eldest sister-in-law who had to patch up and care for all the younger siblings with her own resources?
“System, do I look like a big sucker?”
Her sister was wealthy, pretty, and employed—what kind of despair made her want to jump into this huge ss?
“But… he looks pretty good, and he’s exactly your favorite refined and handso type.” Most importantly, he’d be a big shot in the future.
An Ning could only reply helplessly:
“Then eat sothing good! So much for all those rich young masters in the Forbidden City in the past life.” Besides, in terms of looks, who could be more beautiful than her own child from the last life?
Last life, Mingyu relied on that face to not only rampage everywhere but also basically lie down and win all his life. Nearly thirty years old, yet a bunch of young girls scrambled to get into the Wang Mansion.
During Kangxi’s reign, he was the most cherished cousin, receiving treatnt no worse than many princes.
Before Yinreng’s death, Kangxi even specifically decreed that the folding fan often used by his cousin be buried with him.
That was the true way to wield a prosperous beauty.
This male supporting character looked good, but only just good.
An Ning always believed that a person’s looks had to be seen comprehensively; except for those stunningly beautiful, most needed the support of temperant.
Like her cheap husband in the last life, who was elegant and cultured with ink and books, and carried the aura of a born leader. Including those noble young masters in the Forbidden City.
If you talk about good looks, they weren’t all that good, but in a crowd, the first people you noticed were them.
Power and deanor were a man’s best fashion accessories.
But what did this guy in front of her have?
So An Ning really didn’t understand how her system could be so infatuated over just a face, as if it had never seen the world.
System: “……”
As if I couldn’t tell that host, you’re mocking .
“Host, haven’t you heard the saying, ‘Don’t underestimate a young man in poverty; when he becos successful, it’ll be hard to get close!’”
“Oh…”
“Then let’s wait until he’s successful!”
“Host, you’re too pragmatic!”
“What else? Before doing anything, you have to gain sothing, right? Marriage is the sa.”
She couldn’t just give up her beautiful single life to serve a whole family and deal with all sorts of ssy relatives.
What was she thinking?
An Ning’s tone remained cold, and she didn’t look aside once the entire way.
Jiang’s mother, who had so hopes, could only feel awkward, while Jiang Huai’s expression turned gloomy.
But none of that concerned An Ning. After quickly finishing the transfer, she turned and left without looking back.
Only Jiang Huai was left staring at the girl’s back, unable to regain his senses for a long ti. Seeing her like this, Jiang’s mother couldn’t help but scold: “You’ve been classmates for two years. An Ning is so pretty and capable—why don’t you take the initiative?”
Anhua Factory, and a technical staff mber.
Even in the city, girls with such money and respectable jobs were hard to find.
Jiang Huai could only smile bitterly. Could he say he had never noticed this overly silent classmate before? His only impression was that she studied hard.
“Forget it, mom. She probably doesn’t even like now!”
Graduated at the sa ti, had Teacher Ye’s connections, yet An Ning could find a decent job on her own ability while he still had to make his family worry so much.
Jiang Huai was unusually discouraged.
Nine hundred yuan—afterward, his younger brothers and sisters would have to scrimp and save for a long ti.
At a ti like this, how could he think about anything else?
“Well, being that pretty, her standards must be high!”
Ignoring the gaze behind her, holding the warm 900 yuan, An Ning humd happily all the way back to the tube-style apartnt.
Unfortunately, she hadn’t even made it upstairs when Aunt Guihua grabbed her arm:
“Oh, Ning girl, why are you coming back so late? Did sothing happen at your ho?”
“Sothing happened? Really?”
An Ning couldn’t help but brighten at the question.
