Chapter 937
I have to say, placing 25 stacks of large-denomination bills on the coffee table, the visual effect was absolutely shocking.
Fortunately, whether it was Wang Dazhu and his wife or Mu Xueqing, they were all people who had seen scenes much bigger than this.
Because the money the spy left in Mount Shitou, Wang An brought home a full 120,000, and the money Wang An found in Jia Renlu's cellar, he also brought home a full 300,000.
So the reason they were so shocked was mainly because of the source of the money and the speed at which Wang An brought back so much money.
Of course, the amount of money was definitely also very shocking; after all, a person would never dislike having more than 20,000 yuan just because they already had more than 400,000 in their hands.
Just when Wang An scratched open the second porcelain jar and placed the large-denomination bills inside on the coffee table, Wang Dazhu finally reacted and asked with a surprised but excited face:
"Xiao An, where did you get so much money?"
After Wang Dazhu finished speaking, Liu Guilan also came to her senses and followed up by asking:
"Yeah, Xiao An, didn't you go to get dogs? How could you bring back a pile of money?"
Wang An looked at the puzzled but very excited eyes of Wang Dazhu and his wife, and then looked at Mu Xueqing and Wang Yi looking at the money, their expressions wanting to speak but stopping.
Wang An felt that sharing this joy with the whole family was quite interesting, and of course, quite meaningful.
At this very moment, the only ones who didn't have much concept of money, or rather, weren't interested in money at all, were probably the two young ladies Wang Xiaomei and Wang Xiaoli.
Because these two little girls were sitting at the dining table, occasionally peeking at Liu Guilan, and then secretly pinching a small piece of steamed bun to put in their mouths.
It could be seen that because it had been a long time since mealtime, these two little girls were truly hungry.
Wang An, while scratching open the third jar, said with a smile:
"Let me tell you, this matter is also quite interesting."
Saying this, Wang An suddenly stopped, looked at his two younger sisters, and then turned to Wang Yi and said very seriously:
"Xiao Yi, don't let the cat out of the bag about the money in our family. You're not young anymore, and I don't want to keep these family matters from you anymore. You need to have a sense of what should be said and what shouldn't."
Wang Yi was already 14 years old, and in the countryside, a 14-year-old boy who didn't go to school had already started working in the fields with the adults.
If it were before the land was divided among households, a 12-year-old child would actually have to count as half a labor force.
Wang Yi, upon hearing this, hurriedly nodded:
"Yes, Big Brother, I know the principle of not showing off wealth, and I also know what 'an innocent man is guilty of his own treasure' means."
Wang An, upon hearing Wang Yi's words, felt very surprised; mainly because Wang Yi had just graduated from elementary school, where did he hear these idioms or allusions?
Just these two sentences Wang Yi said, it could be said that ordinary adults might not be able to say them.
Wang An's mouth twitched, and while giving a thumbs up, he praised Wang Yi:
"Not bad, Xiao Yi, it seems you really didn't waste your time in school; you're much better than your big brother, hehehehe..."
To be honest, all along, Wang Yi had been very sensible and never made Wang Dazhu and his wife worry about anything.
Even in Wang An's past life, Wang Yi never let the family down.
I have to say, this still has to be credited to Wang Dazhu and his wife; perhaps in terms of educating children, except for Wang An, who could be considered a relatively failed product, Wang Yi and the sisters Wang Xiaomei and Wang Xiaoli could be considered quite successful.
Liu Guilan, hearing Wang An praising Wang Yi, rolled her eyes at Wang An and said:
"Xiao Yi is much more worry-free than you; you are the one who makes your father and me worry the most."
Wang Dazhu also slanted his eyes at Wang An, and then said with a look of disdain:
"Yeah, it's only after Xueqing married into our family that you've settled down; otherwise, you... you're nothing."
After Liu Guilan and Wang Dazhu finished speaking, Wang Dazhu and his wife and Mu Xueqing couldn't help but burst into laughter.
And Wang Yi, although he wanted to laugh, was still a bit afraid of his big brother Wang An, so he simply lowered his head and pursed his lips, his shoulders shaking.
I don't know why, but many times Wang An would become the family's joke in a daze; that's strange!
Wang An looked at his parents and wife with a confused face while scratching his head, but he couldn't say a word of rebuttal.
Mainly because the things Liu Guilan and Wang Dazhu said were indeed completely correct, because the Wang An before rebirth was indeed a heartache for Wang Dazhu and his wife.
Hanging out in the county town every day, the number of times he helped the family with farm work was very limited; people in the nearby villages would shake their heads whenever Wang An was mentioned, and even finding a matchmaker to introduce a partner was difficult...
All in all, it could be said that anyone with such a despicable son would be worried to death.
Perhaps at that time, Wang An's only merit was that he never blew his beard and stared at Wang Dazhu and his wife, and never caused trouble at home.
Fortunately, Wang An's skin was thick enough, and for this kind of family atmosphere at this time, Wang An also felt quite happy.
After the three of them laughed enough, Wang An then continued:
"Today, didn't I take Fifth Brother to the county to find my eldest sister? Then my eldest sister sent Sister Nian with us to Xiuyu's house..."
Immediately after, Wang An picked out the important parts and simply talked about the "bandit suppression" that day and his job as a defense member.
Until Wang An finished speaking, Wang Dazhu took a puff of his cigarette and said:
"So you being able to become this defense member was arranged by your eldest sister?"
Wang An laughed and said:
"That's for sure; do you really think the Public Security Bureau is somewhere anyone can enter?"
Seeing Wang An's voice fall, Wang Dazhu rolled his eyes at Wang An and said unpleasantly:
"Is that what I meant? I'm saying such a big favor, how are you going to repay them?"
Wang An waved his hand, and while scratching open the fourth jar, said with a smile:
"You don't need to worry about this; I can mingle with these second-generation kids, and it's not something these small things can affect. They can take me seriously because I'm useful to them, hehehehe..."
I have to admit, the relationship between friends actually involves interests; accurately speaking, it means that both sides can bring actual benefits or advantages to each other.
Whether it was Wang An from saving to getting to know to becoming close friends with Wu Dong, He Liang, and Ma Guoqiang, or Wang An from saving to becoming sworn siblings to becoming as close as brother and sister with Zhang Shuya.
Actually, Wang An had always been very actively providing them with all kinds of things they needed.
Thanks to "Large Empire Emperor" for the tip, thank you, thank you.
Wishing the big brother a smooth career and a happy life!
