Make a Fortune and Become Well-off [90] - Chapter 13

Father Jiang was not willing to be a hard laborer, so he wanted to form a team himself and be the foreman.

When one was a foreman, they would provide a lot of materials and work first, and then they could get the wages at the end. If the boss ran away, the person wouldn’t get a penny, and they would still owe a lot of money. Mother Jiang was afraid that she would bear the debt. So she didn’t agree.

She heard that the foreman was responsible for more than ten or twenty people, which was similar to the foreman at their construction site. If a man became a foreman at the construction site, he could indeed earn so much money in a month.

When Jiang Yueqin saw that Mother Jiang was convinced, she immediately smiled and said, “Look at me, as a waitress, I had done a good job. I have been promoted to foreman and am in charge of more than a dozen people.”

Mother Jiang thought the girl had become a foreman and was going back to the village to recruit her own people.

Just like when Father Jiang wanted to be a foreman, his first reaction was to find a group with his own people from the same village.

She also knew that Jiang Yueqin brought back five thousand yuan after being away for half a year. The girl from the family was really promising. She brought back so much money for her mother in half a year.

She sighed enviously and said, “I don’t expect my Ning Ning  to be as capable as you. If she can bring me one or two thousand yuan a year, Amitabha. I have not given birth to her in vain.”

In Mother Jiang’s mind, Jiang Ning, who was not good at farm work and could not earn money for her family, was the most useless girl in the village.

Jiang Yueqin smiled sweetly and took Mother Jiang’s arm, saying, “Second Aunt, don’t worry, she will definitely be able to build a large building for your family by then.”

Thinking of the high-rise building, Mother Jiang was suddenly excited. She wished she could pack Jiang Ning’s stuff and take her there immediately so that she could bring a thousand yuan back to her at the end of the year.

She took Jiang Yueqin’s hand and said as enthusiastically as she did to her own daughter, “Yueqin, come to my house more often when you have time. You and Ning Ning  were classmates, from the same village, so you are no different from biological sisters. From now on, when Ning Ning comes to your place, you have to take good care of her.”

“You also know that Ning Ning is very honest. If you have any work, just ask her to do it. I will ensure that she will do a good job for you,” Mother Jiang said with a smile on her face. “You can come to my house to play with Ning Ning later.”

Jiang Ning and Jiang Yueqin were four years apart, and had never played together.

The four rooms of the Jiang family were clearly divided, and each room was occupied by people.

If Jiang Yueqin hadn’t earned so much, the aunts from other houses wouldn’t have come to the big house at all.

The purpose of Jiang Yueqin’s return trip was Jiang Ning, so she responded, “Okay, I’ll go play with Ning Ning tomorrow.”

By introducing a little sister, she would get five hundred yuan.

So the next day, Jiang Yueqin came to find Jiang Ning.

Jiang Ning had actually not seen Jiang Yueqin for many years. In her memory, she still built a big house for her family. After that, she went home in great glory every year and became a guest at home. The whole village envied her parents.

Later, the news that she was working as a young lady spread out for some reason and was known to the villagers. After that, no news about her was heard again.

Seeing Jiang Yueqin so young again, mature yet a little naive, it really felt like she was in another world.

“Ning Ning,” Jiang Yueqin was very enthusiastic and rushed towards Jiang Ning when she saw her.

Jiang Ning thought she was going to hug her, so her body that was sitting in front of the desk suddenly leaned back strategically. As a result, Jiang Yueqin rushed to her, opened her arms and turned around in front of Jiang Ning, “My clothes look good, right?”

After she finished spinning, she came up to hug Jiang Ning’s shoulders with great enthusiasm, but Jiang Ning dodged and avoided her.

Jiang Yueqin, who didn’t expect her to avoid her, tilted her head and said, “Oh, Ning Ning, what are you doing?”

She was dressed very fashionably, with heavy makeup on her face, curly hair, a hip-hugging leather skirt, tight short sleeves, and black leggings and high-heeled sandals. When she got close to her, Jiang Ning smelled the strong smell of low-quality perfume she sprayed on her body.

The scent of osmanthus was a bit choking.

She stood next to Jiang Ning, one standing and the other sitting, one plump and tall, one short and thin, one looked like a ripe peach with a strong fragrance, and the other was as dry as a sour green persimmon that had not yet developed.

Jiang Yueqin didn’t care about Jiang Ning’s dodge. After standing firm, she crossed her arms and looked down at Jiang Ning with critical eyes. “Oh, Ning Ning, why are you so tanned?” She stretched out her hand, flicking Jiang Ning’s hair, then continued to say, “Why did your mother cut your hair like it was chewed by a dog?”

Her tone was full of teasing and laughter when she said the last sentence.

In Jiang Yueqin’s memory, Jiang Ning and her brothers had always been very good-looking, especially Jiang Bai and Jiang Ning, who were as fair and tender as dolls, otherwise she wouldn’t have come to find her.

She looked at Jiang Ning’s obviously short and ill-fitting clothes and said, “Ning Ning, what are you wearing? Isn’t it your brother’s? Eldest doesn’t want it so they give it to the middle kid who passes the rags to the third one. You are too shabby.” She had a funny expression on her face and showed off her new clothes with a sense of superiority. “Look at me.”

She spun around in a circle, stretched out her wrist in front of Jiang Ning and shook it, showing off the gold bracelet on her wrist, proudly showing off, “This is gold. It costs a lot of money. My partner gave it to me, doesn’t it look good?”

“Such a low quality,” Jiang Ning said. She casually picked up the shiny chain on her wrist and looked at her. “Is this really gold? Why does it look fake to me?”

“How is that possible?” Jiang Yueqin immediately screamed like a chicken with its feathers exploded. “Of course this is not fake, you don’t understand anything, don’t talk nonsense.”

Jiang Ning put down the chain on her wrist and raised her head slowly, “Who says I don’t understand.”

She clicked on the physical chemistry book on the desk. “It’s written in the book. Gold is a non-magnetic metal and will not attract magnets. I have a magnet at home. Do you want to try it? If it can attract it, it’s fake.” She said while opening her drawer enthusiastically, as if she wanted to help her find a magnet. “By the way, there is another way to detect whether it is real gold.”

She turned her head and looked at Jiang Yueqin sincerely. “There will be no chemical reaction between gold and concentrated nitric acid solution, but if it is fake or gold-plated, it will turn green or black. Do you want to try it?”
