CHAPTER 22: CHAPTER 19: GETTING RICH WITH THE POCKET DIMENSION 1
Jiang Mingyue added fuel to the fire: "Mom, the old lady’s sore spot has been hit by you."
Mrs. Jiang: "Dare to do it, but not admit it. Isn’t it all for the money your uncle and cousin send home every month? Without the money from the main family, the old lady’s beloved second family would be begging."
Wu Cuilan, who hadn’t been speaking, immediately retorted, "Shen Fanghua, who are you saying would beg? Just look at the way your third family lives, and you have the nerve to say we’d beg?"
"Second sister-in-law really doesn’t listen. Is that what I meant? I meant that without the main family’s support, you second family would starve to death, and you shamelessly mistreat the main family’s children. Where’s your conscience?"
Jiang Mingyue: "Mom, the second family doesn’t understand what conscience is, do they?"
They simply weren’t born with one.
The back-and-forth between mother and daughter infuriated the old lady and the second family.
"Yueyue, come over here." Suddenly, the voice of the eldest cousin interrupted the intense atmosphere.
Jiang Mingyue’s attention was instantly diverted there, along with Mrs. Jiang’s group.
"Ming’an, your body is injured, how can you get up? Quickly lie down. You, just like your dad, don’t care about your own body."
"Third aunt, I’m fine, I just need to bother you to call the village chief and others. I, Jiang Ming’an, want to split the family property."
As soon as the words "split the family" were spoken, Wu Cuilan’s thunderous voice echoed throughout the yard.
"No way! Ming’an, you’re being so inconsiderate, how can you upset your grandma at such an age? Not to mention, you don’t care for her and just want to enjoy yourself by splitting the property. It seems these years you’ve grown arrogant, tomorrow I’ll have your second uncle go to the city to bring your dad back. If you won’t listen to us, then let your big brother educate you."
Such twisted words! Jiang Mingyue originally thought this silent woman would be inarticulate, but unexpectedly she was quick-tongued and black-hearted. Otherwise, how could she comfortably enjoy everything the main family brought without caring for their child?
Jiang Ming’an laughed bitterly, thinking the original father and son were just two fools, look at the family they risk their lives to protect.
Jiang Ming’an: "It’s strange what second aunt said. How is splitting up the family being unfilial to grandma? Are all those who have split up from the family in the village unfilial? Why, I heard that Wang Ergou was even made an example by the village?"
Wang Ergou, the first to split from the family, is now the filial son of the village.
Old lady: "No, it just can’t happen. Even if you call your father back, dare him to split the family with me."
Jiang Mingyue frowned, unable to figure out what the key was here.
But it certainly won’t happen tonight, it has to wait until tomorrow.
When everyone left, Jiang Ming’an closed the room door.
"Third aunt, don’t just stand, have a seat." After all, she was Little Yueyue’s mother now, she has to be respected.
"Don’t mind me. Ming’an, do you really want to split the family?"
Jiang Ming’an: "Absolutely. Third aunt has seen it. My only brother doesn’t have enough to eat or wear. If it weren’t for you and fourth aunt helping now and then, he’d have starved to death long ago. But life is not easy for you and fourth aunt either, so you can’t help too much. My father and I send all our salaries to grandma.
It’s just in hopes that grandma, for the sake of the money, would take good care of this youngest brother, but unexpectedly, she drains all the funds into the second family’s pocket.
Over these years, third aunt should be clear about this.
Second uncle is idle, second aunt is lazy, yet the couple lives well, just look around Qingshan Village, who’s not skin and bones? Only this couple eats like fat pigs, with greasy faces every day, along with their three children.
Jiang Beihua, Jiang Beishan, and Jiang Beiyang were all raised by the main family, beyond just education and living expenses, the clothes they wear and use over the years aren’t a small sum, but like their parents, they’re all ungrateful. In front of my brother, they show no awareness of who’s the benefactor, in fact, they bully my brother. If I continue supporting them, it’d be aiding and abetting. It would be unjust to my brother, and even more unfair to my deceased mother."
For so many years, it was also the first time Shen Fanghua heard Jiang Ming’an speak so much.
Shen Fanghua: "Then tomorrow, when your father returns, I’ll have Jian Guo call the village chief and the others for you."
Jiang Ming’an: "Thank you, third aunt."
Shen Fanghua: "Your body is like this, have a good night’s sleep first, if anything happens tomorrow, ask Xiao Ran to call us, and we’ll take you to the clinic."
Jiang Ming’an: "Okay, I’ll listen to third aunt."
After everyone left, they went home, washed up, and went to bed. Jiang Mingyue took this time to sneak back in.
"Alright, come in."
Jiang Mingyue: "Bro, how did you know it was me?"
Jiang Ming’an: "In a past life, I was the one who raised you, I know what you’re like just by the way you turn your head."
Jiang Mingyue: "..."
"Is there something you want to ask? Go ahead."
"Bro, how did you come here too? Did you come yesterday?"
In truth, Jiang Ming’an wouldn’t tell Jiang Mingyue the real situation, because it was too tragic.
"Yes, it was yesterday. When I woke up, I became your brother. As for why I came over, I don’t know, but before I came over, my head was attacked. This might be the reason for coming over. As for why and how I became your cousin, I really don’t know."
"Hmm, that’s good!"
The siblings looked at each other and smiled.
"Right, bro, you have a blood clot in your head, is it from when you came over?"
Speaking of which, Jiang Ming’an’s expression darkened: "No, the original host was ambushed before returning to the village. He also didn’t know who, but when he looked back, no one was there. Worried about his brother at home, he ignored the abnormality in his head. But when he was cycling up Baihua Forest’s hill, his head started to hurt, and the road was bumpy, he lost balance and fell down the hill."
"Pretty much what I expected. So, bro, what happened to your bicycle?"
Jiang Ming’an looked at Jiang Mingyue: "You don’t know how I knew?"
"That’s right, you were unconscious. It should still be in Baihua Forest. I’ll help you bring it back tomorrow morning. I’ll also help call uncle back for the family split."
"Hmm, remember to have the village chief issue a letter of introduction."
That night, Jiang Mingyue couldn’t sleep, but she didn’t dare move, making her whole body stiff, so she simply went into her space.
Only after entering did she discover that her rabbit herd had grown much larger, about five times the previous size, the breeding speed was absurdly fast.
Because of this, Jiang Mingyue had to expand the fence again, thinking she needs to find a way to sell some quickly.
She then looked at her chicken flock, which also grew several times larger, though not as terrifying as the rabbit herd. Thinking about it, she picked out a basket full of eggs. Although leaving them might hatch chicks, she also needed eggs to nourish herself, it’s different.
Jiang Mingyue mused, if she could get some fish fry, they’d probably breed even faster, then she’d have fish to eat freely.
Once she gets out, she’ll have to come up with a plan.
There’s also pigs, ducks, geese, if she could get those, she wouldn’t worry about meat in the future.
