Chapter 123: Chapter 123 Might Be Targeted Chapter 123: Chapter 123 Might Be Targeted Third Brother was leading them in making money, and they had earned an amount they could never have imagined before. They were so grateful they barely had time to express it, how could they blame Third Brother? Zhao Tianlei looked at them and said very seriously, “We might all be targeted now. Recently, you all need to be cautious. Whether they can milk us of our money depends on if we let them.” “Third Brother, I will be careful,” one said. Zhao Tianhe also hastened to add, “I will be careful too. Moreover, after I returned, I only told my parents that I had earned fifty and had given them twenty. Even though I did this in front of my sister-in-laws and brothers, they might still suspect that I have more money. But I continued as before, not buying much of anything.” The family situation of Fang Chaoyang was even simpler, a grandmother and a younger sister. Living in an adobe house, even after earning money, he didn’t buy any fabrics for his family, only a can of malted milk from the provincial city, so his grandmother and sister could have a bowl each day. When he didn’t earn money, he spent freely. Cao Dali scratched his head, “When I saw Third Brother buy a lipstick for sister-in-law, I also bought one for Cuihua.” In an instant, Cao Dali was stared at by three pairs of eyes. “Do you know, a lipstick costs five yuan. No wonder there was trouble. Your situation is different from mine. The whole brigade knows, your sister-in-law’s family has been helping us out, sending parcels and money over the years with some rare items. These wouldn’t cause much of a stir. But, Dali, when you suddenly produce such an expensive lipstick, it arouses others’ suspicions, demanding a bigger dowry, which is not right.” Cao Dali hadn’t expected that because of a lipstick, his relationship would end. Fang Chaoyang added to what Zhao Tianlei meant, “If you’re willing to buy a lipstick, then you must have made quite a bit of money. If not from you, then who else would we profit from?” The atmosphere turned somewhat oppressive instantly. “Daddy, daddy...” Xiaoxiao knew they had important matters to discuss and didn’t intend to disturb them. But after washing the dishes and tidying up the kitchen, Xiao Bao and Da Bao, not knowing what was being discussed, ran to find their daddy, Zhao Tianlei. Zhao Tianlei stretched out his arms to pick up Xiao Bao and looked at the three men, then said, “Keep a low profile for now.” All three of them were ready to step out. “Chaoyang, your sister knows how to knit, right?” Fang Chaoyang nodded lightly, “Hmm, she learned from the aunties in the village.” “Then have your sister come over tomorrow. Your sister-in-law wants to learn knitting. Let her teach your sister-in-law a bit.” Knitwear? “Alright, I’ll have her come over.” As they left, they greeted Xiaoxiao before departing. Previously, some harbored slight resentment that Xiaoxiao didn’t do farm work. But now Xiaoxiao’s family sent her parcels and money, completely supporting her. Especially when there is no comparison, there is no disparity. Once they compared, the disparity became immediately apparent. After sending them off, Zhao Tianlei got up to boil water for a bath, meanwhile washing up for the family. “Mom, why does dad sleep next to us now? Didn’t you always sleep together before?” Xiaoxiao was startled, why did Da Bao suddenly ask this question? “Mom, do you not like dad anymore?” Why would you say that? Why are children’s questions so strange? Suddenly Xiaoxiao thought of something, she had become the female supporting character, but this body was still that of the female supporting character. “Why do you ask?” Da Bao looked at Xiaoxiao, then added, “You don’t sleep together.”
