Reborn, I am doing involution on Jinshan
Chapter 2: Being Killed on the First Day in Another World
The plant that Yin Xiaoyao least wants to be is called dandelion. She just wants to be a small tree, forever rooted in one place. Only by becoming a big tree can she not be separated from her family.
————Yin Xiaoyao
She wanted to live with her grandmother until they were old and gray, until the end of time. But the wheel of fate was like a gust of wind, forcing her to become a dandelion...
Despite this setback, Yin Xiaoyao remained undeterred. She knew that life is full of ups and downs, and even if you hit rock bottom, you'll always rise again. Now, she's determined to face reality bravely, strive to start a new chapter in her life, and finally find a happy ending.
When her grandmother was alive, she would often tell her many little stories and many life lessons: "Xiao Yaoyao, no flower lasts forever, and no person is good forever. Some things can only be encountered by chance. As a woman, you must know how to be flexible, and don't dig for yourself. You have to make money by yourself, and others are unreliable." Her grandmother would frequently tell her golden sentences every two days, but she couldn't remember them all. The only thing she remembered was to make money make money.
My grandmother was a daughter of a businessman and a renowned talent. Her husband died young, and of her three children, two sons all moved abroad to pursue careers, while her youngest daughter married and relocated to Hong Kong. As expected, talented children soar to great heights. It's true that there's no hope for success in matters of the heart or the soul.
Fortunately, the support for the three children was in place. Grandma was indeed good at making money. She had three shops in the town that collected rent, and also had shares in a nearby garment factory. Grandma had made a will before she died. Yin Xiaoyao could only inherit everything after she turned 28, so she had to work hard to live to be over 28 to become the heir.
Yin Xiaoyao was just an adopted daughter under the name of the eldest son of the Yin family. She had never even met her nominal parents until her grandmother passed away. The youngest daughter hurried back from Hong Kong to attend the funeral, gave her a small sum of 16 yuan, which was directly transferred to her bank account, and hurried back to Hong Kong to do business. She also promised to take her to settle in Hong Kong after graduation. Yin Xiaoyao was years old that year.
After her grandmother passed away, Yin Xiaoyao lived alone in her luxurious villa in the town with her old dog Wangcai for two years. Occasionally, her grandmother's old friends, Uncle Huang and his wife, would come over on weekends to cook for her. She also had her adorable grandson, Xiao Tianning, and her sister Yaoyao, who called her "Nu" in a baby voice. These warmed Yin Xiaoyao's lonely soul.
She really enjoyed attending classes, being able to board, and hearing the voices of her classmates made her feel very satisfied. Living alone was too lonely, and she was powerless to change it.
Since she was 15, Yin Xiaoyao has been receiving 2000 yuan from a mysterious person every month. She initially thought it was arranged by her grandmother, but even after her grandmother passed away, the money kept coming in. Although she was curious about the person's identity, she was too incompetent to investigate.
The sun sets, like a glorious death.
From a distance, it looks like a plump and round red grave, which buried my ridiculous first love.
She never thought that one day she would witness her boyfriend cheating on her!
She also knew why Zhou Chuanglin had changed. It was because she refused to get engaged or to marry privately to strengthen the relationship between the two families. His goal was to get her grandmother's inheritance. So, he turned his marriage target to Liang Xiaotang, who came from a more modest family. At least her parents were there, and Liang Xiaotang was more obedient and easier to control. This was what Su Mianmian later analyzed for her: the temptations of adults were always ugly.
Yin Xiaoyao couldn't help but recall the night Zhou Chuanglin asked her out, telling her he didn't want to wait any longer and wanted to establish a relationship with her. She felt confused and lost, unsure how to respond. Zhou Chuanglin told her that if they didn't get engaged or marry privately, his family would no longer support her education.
She realized that all this was an exchange of interests, and she was just a pawn. Although the so-called funding was just empty promises, she had never seen Zhou Chuanglin invest more than 100 yuan in her. Yin Xiaoyao felt a chill down her spine. The feeling of being calculated was so frustrating.
He did not fight to the death with that pair of dogs or openly break up with them, but chose to leave peacefully. This was a result of the cultivation accumulated by his ancestors for nineteen generations.
Yin Xiaoyao felt a surge of sadness and helplessness. She understood that the world wasn't as beautiful as she'd imagined, and that people often acted out of self-interest. However, she refused to be bound by this reality. She decided to stick to her principles and pursue true happiness, even if it meant facing more difficulties and challenges.
After graduating from high school, she gave up the pursuit of her dream of going to college because of her poor grades and serious subject imbalance. Her current biggest difficulty is that her wallet can no longer support her for more than 7 days.
Because she had to control her spending to less than 200 yuan, Yin Xiaoyao couldn't touch her aunt's 5 yuan life-saving money. It was just that the fare to Kyoto was too expensive. Even more tragically, today was only the 5th, and the monthly living expenses would not come until the end of the month.
Yin Xiaoyao and her good friend Su Mianmian were passing by a shopping mall. As usual, she checked for job postings and saw a worker who had just left. There was a job posting for a silver jewelry salesperson. When the interviewer heard her last name was Yin, that she was pretty, of the right age, and that she was at the required height of 164cm, he asked her to come in the next day.
Su Mianmian, a local rich second-generation, thoughtfully treated her to a free KFC meal and provided her with food and accommodation for 38 days, which finally allowed her to survive before she had no income.
Work is her last bit of stubbornness.
Yin Xiaoyao has been working as a salesperson at Yunxuan Silver Shop for a year and four months. Her salary is only 3500 yuan, but she can earn 4000 yuan on a good day. She works only eight hours a day, with four days off a month. She also gets a 8 yuan gift bonus every holiday, which the boss gives directly in cash. Her fifth day of work happened to be Mid-Autumn Festival, and she successfully received the 4 yuan. Having people give RMB when she's short on cash makes life worthwhile. She absolutely loves these hours... and even thinks she could work until retirement.
Oh, and her name is Yin Xiaoyao, not Yin Xiaoyao. However, those in the village who envied her family's wealth called her Yin Xiaoyao behind her back, "Yin Xiaoyao on the Gold Mountain." She didn't care, because she desperately wanted to be famous. Good or bad, it didn't matter. As long as she stayed outside the law, she was still a soaring eagle. Fame brings benefits, and what Grandma said must be true.
She would fight her way out of this bloody situation, build her own castle, and then look down upon all living things. She would save whoever she wanted to save, and if she didn't want to save anyone, she would choose to suffer from intermittent amnesia. Yin Xiaoyao watched the middle-aged male customer walk away, her mind wandering.
As she pondered, she suddenly recalled past experiences she had encountered, moments that had left her feeling helpless and frustrated. She realized that if she truly wanted to control her own destiny, she must possess sufficient strength and wisdom. Only then could she remain calm and resolute in the face of difficulties and challenges, undeterred by external distractions.
Thinking of this, Yin Xiaoyao's eyes grew more resolute and confident. She knew it would be a long and arduous journey, but as long as she persevered, she would achieve her goal. So, she took a deep breath, adjusted her mindset, and continued to work. She believed that as long as she continued to improve her abilities and qualities, she would achieve greater success in her future.
After a moment of hesitation, she shook her head and decided to tell her boss the unfortunate news of the 500 yuan refund in the afternoon. She went to the bathroom again, touched up her makeup, and then calmly waited for the next God of Wealth to come.
Sister Xiaofang smiled sweetly at her: "Xiaoyao, there is no afternoon shift today, and I didn't have breakfast. I'm so hungry. Can you eat the second batch?"
"Okay, then go and eat quickly." She gave a polite professional smile.
"Thank you. Next time I'll let you eat first."
