Back to the 1980s: Becoming the Villain's Lucky Wife

Chapter 346: Chapter 346: Car Key

Beidou had a few drinks, and a blush crept across his handsome face.

He smiled and said, "How about I work hard and make it so your daughter is the same age as your grandson?"

Du Liya had also drunk quite a bit today, and after talking at length about the clothing factory, her head was still buzzing and in a total fog. As a result, she was a bit slow on the uptake.

She asked, "What daughter? I don’t have a daughter. I only have one son, Xiao Yi."

"Mhm, that’s what I need to work hard on."

Du Liya couldn’t figure it out for the life of her, but since it wasn’t dark yet and they hadn’t had dinner, she decided not to think about it for now.

She had to go lie down and rest for a bit. Getting married was so exhausting, and she’d even done it twice.

Before falling asleep, Du Liya muttered, "I’m never getting married again. It’s just too exhausting."

Beidou didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

Meanwhile, Qin Jiao and Shen Yi had just about finished counting the gift money. A huge pile of red envelopes sat beside them. Qin Jiao remarked with a sigh, "Your relatives are so rich, and that’s even with some of them being abroad. I mean, Shen Yi, if you get married again, won’t they just lose their minds?"

’The mother gets married twice, the son gets married twice... If these weren’t true relatives, they probably would have cut off all contact by now.’

Shen Yi sighed. "Jiao Jiao, I already said today is our big day. Even if it’s fake, don’t hurt me like this. Can’t you just let me be happy for a little while longer?" ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com

If she mentioned getting married again, Shen Yi figured he wouldn’t be able to stop himself from pinning her to the bed, regardless of whether any of this was real or fake.

Of course, for now, this was just a thought for Shen Yi. Thankfully, Qin Jiao didn’t continue teasing him. She handed a whole bag of money to Shen Yi.

"The total is thirteen thousand, five hundred and eighty. You take it. Deposit it in the passbook later."

"I already told you, you’re in charge of the money in our family." Shen Yi pushed the money back and added, "But we can’t keep this much cash at home. Tomorrow, we’ll go to the bank together and deposit it."

’At first glance, there seemed to be no difference, but there actually was. Qin Jiao hadn’t expected Shen Yi to trust her so completely, letting all the money pass through her hands like this.’

After all, ten thousand yuan in this day and age was no small sum of money.

Then, Shen Yi produced a small box from somewhere and handed it to Qin Jiao. "Jiao Jiao, take a look."

"Is this a car key?" Qin Jiao opened the box and saw a key inside. She froze.

Shen Yi smiled and said, "It’s a wedding gift from my uncle. An imported Jeep. It’s not here yet, though. It should arrive around the time school starts."

Qin Jiao’s original plan was that if her parents opened a small restaurant near the university, she could rent a place nearby instead of living in the dorms. That way, she could live with her parents and Xiao Shi and help them out with the work. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com

But now her parents were going to work at the clothing factory, and Du Liya had already helped find a school for Xiao Shi not far from the compound. Du Liya’s intention was for Qin Jiao’s entire family to continue living in the compound.

Qin Jiao put down the car key and said to Shen Yi, "Shen Yi, my family may not have money, but we can still afford to rent a house. I’ll just have my parents rent a place near the clothing factory. You guys found jobs for my parents, helped Xiao Shi transfer schools, and even arranged work for my aunt and uncle. You’ve done so much... I don’t know how I can ever repay you."

’She remembered how at the wedding banquet, some of the Du family relatives had been whispering. They’d said that while Xiao Yi’s partner was a good person—an outstanding university student, even—her family was just too poor and had nothing to their name.’

Although those words weren’t pleasant to hear, Qin Jiao knew they were the truth.

She had only done Shen Yi one favor by fake-marrying him, but in return, he and his family had helped hers in far too many ways.
