Chapter 409: Chapter 383: You’re Floating (Thanks to Xuanyuan Yu and Master Er Shi Bi+ More)
Yu Minglang is indeed a calm and determined super Xiao Qiang who has been through many battles. Even when his true colors were exposed, he didn’t show any embarrassment, pretending to be indifferent, and patting Da Long’s shoulder with a smile.
“Have you finished your winter break homework? I heard you still have 30 days of journals to write. I wonder if one day is enough for you to finish them?”
“…” The slacker is defeated again.
It’s over, Brother Lang has also been led astray by his sister. Why does everyone use this trick?
“Xiufang, ah, you’ve become so arrogant. Just because you’ve made some money, look at how it’s gotten to your head, even throwing money at your own daughter. You’re really arrogant~”
Xiao Qian, not wanting Jia Xiufang’s anger to diminish, hides behind Yu Minglang and provokes her mother.
Jia Xiufang wants to hit her, but Yu Minglang protects her tightly. She can’t even touch a corner of Xiao Qian’s clothes.
“Aunt, don’t be like her. She’s just being naughty. Xiao Mei, hurry up and apologize to Aunt!” While stopping Xiao Qian from being beaten, Yu Minglang says to her without much deterrent force.
“Ming Lang, don’t block her. Look at what she’s become, she dares to call her mother by her name!” Jia Xiufang points at Xiao Qian, unable to hit her.
Xiao Qian scoffs with a grin, knowing she has the all-powerful Xiao Qiang on her side, she fears nothing~
“What I said wasn’t wrong. Look at you, you’ve made so much money, but why is your IQ still stuck at the level of watching cliche dramas? Why do those cliche dramas always end with the bad guys kneeling on the ground, sobbing and repenting? That’s just to force a happy ending, fooling people like you, middle-aged housewives, into shedding tears.”
“Ming Lang, get out of the way! I want to hit her!”
“You see, you can’t do anything to me. I speak bluntly, but the truth is not. A person’s values are formed from the very beginning. Do you think it’s easy to change them? Don’t hit me, if you hit my head and I go crazy, you will never know why Chu Xue is like this. Don’t you really want to know? For example, this is the cliche drama you’re watching, and it has developed to the point of unraveling the mystery before the grand finale. Don’t you want to watch?”
Yu Minglang smiles at Xiao Qian, his Qian Bao, who can deceive bad people outside and even deceive her own mother at home. She doesn’t study professional courses, but focuses on understanding other people’s psychology.
“You little brat…” Jia Xiufang doesn’t really want to hit her daughter, she just wants to make a show of it. After what Xiao Qian said, she follows the script and stops her hand, bending down to pick up the money.
This money is stacked in bundles.
“Let me tell you, when bad people wake up, that’s just written in TV dramas. Real bad people don’t repent unless they have no way out. Even those who feel remorse, it will be many years later; when they’re about to die, or encounter something, and start to believe in the retribution between good and evil, they’ll repent. Truly bad people firmly believe that they will never do anything wrong in their lifetime. Even if you’re cheated, they believe it’s because you’re stupid, not because they’re wrong.”
In her past life, she also visited the prison to provide psychological counseling for some prisoners. Admittedly, some of them did repent, but those who were sentenced to serial killings and other extremely vicious crimes wouldn’t repent. Chu Xue was obviously such a person who enjoyed deceiving others with her intelligence without any remorse.
“Good and evil will be repaid in the end. Those who do bad things will eventually face retribution.” Jia Xiufang firmly believes in this.
Xiao Qian shakes her head with a smile.
“That’s why I said, stop watching the cliche dramas. That kind of logic brainwashes ordinary people. Heaven’s will can only restrain good people, not bad people. It’s just that those who follow the rules like to think about others selflessly with the fear of being condemned by heaven, but will the world go according to your wishful thinking?”
Jia Xiufang seems to understand something, but not quite.
“To put it simply, let’s take Chu Xue as an example. If she hadn’t been unlucky and met me and Xiao Qiang, what do you think would have happened to her?”
“She would have been condemned by everyone, she’s a despised mistress, she’ll face retribution in the end, she—”
As Jia Xiufang gets more and more excited, Xiao Qian rolls her eyes.
“You see, you’ve started again. Mom, in the future, you’ll probably be a half-businesswoman, but I don’t think you’ll be able to do much in your life. Your inherent thinking is too strong. You always use your own morals to restrain others. I’ve told you before, how you think is your business, but you’re not Heaven, you can’t decide other people’s fate. If Chu Xue hadn’t met me, her life would have been great.”
“Hmph, you said I’m arrogant, and now you’re arrogant too, speaking as if you’re the Heavenly Lord.” Jia Xiufang refuses to accept it.
Xiao Qian doesn’t argue with her, just smiles faintly. In her past life, Chu Xue did have a good time, and as for whether or not there is really divine retribution, she doesn’t know. But before her rise, Chu Xue’s days were simply heavenly.
She married Chen Lin, became a wealthy wife, and lived a carefree life. In her previous life, her naive mother still clung to the TV drama mindset of believing that bad people would eventually get their just rewards and lived a miserable life.
TV dramas are created to provide people with spiritual chicken soup, to give poor people a sense of psychological balance. A bad person is evil from beginning to end, and then suddenly repents in the last episode. From a psychological perspective, that’s unscientific. There’s no sudden change from good to bad, nor from bad to good.
Some people who have been bullied always hope that the person who bullied them will have bad luck. They wait for 20 years and then the person gets a terminal illness. They feel that it’s Heaven’s retribution, saying that good and evil will be repaid, it’s just that the time hasn’t come yet—but can good people avoid getting sick?
Deceiving oneself is not a good thing, but countless people with Jia Xiufang’s character like to live their lives in such a muddled way, brewing their own spiritual chicken soup.
“Mom, just remember, there may be immortals in this world, but they’re too busy to deal with our affairs. It’s better to rely on celestial retribution than to make yourself stronger. If you’re strong, those who bully you will be scared. Look at my Second Maternal Uncle, now when he sees you, doesn’t he want to kneel down and call you his ancestor?”
At this thought, Jia Xiufang feels incredibly relieved.
“He deserves it! Let him plot against our family behind our backs and try to meddle in our affairs!”
Second Uncle’s family tried to take Jia Xiufang’s business from her but ended up with nothing. They couldn’t demolish their house and get the money, so they had to beg Jia Xiufang, almost in tears. If the relocation doesn’t happen, they will lose a huge sum of money.
“So, from now on, don’t be so naive when you look at things. As a businessperson, you’ll come into contact with more people. Be more cautious, don’t reveal everything when you talk to people, and leave some room for negotiation. Don’t measure others by your standards, because you never know what’s really going on inside people’s hearts.”
