Rebirth and making money first

Chapter 178 Mrs. Xu's Letter

After a tiring journey, Zhang Jing and her group finally arrived home. As soon as they entered, Zhang Jing couldn't wait to cast her eyes on the two adorable children. The children's faces were filled with innocent smiles, their brilliant smiles, like the brightest sunshine on a spring day, instantly dazzling Zhang Jing's eyes.

She rushed forward in two steps, hugging the children tightly, as if afraid they would suddenly disappear. She kissed one child's rosy cheek, then carefully examined another. Her eyes were filled with love and joy, and she couldn't look at them enough, and couldn't kiss them enough. The children screamed and resisted, and Zhang Jing looked hurt.

Seeing this, the mother-in-law at the side could not help but urge with a smile: "Okay, okay, don't just focus on being affectionate with the children, go and clean yourself up! Look how dirty you are after running around all the way." After hearing what her mother-in-law said, although Zhang Jing was a little reluctant, she still let go of her hand and turned to walk towards the bedroom.

During the meal, Zhang Xiaobing stayed behind without hesitation and joined everyone in feasting. After the meal, he began distributing the gifts he had brought back to his family. After he finished distributing the gifts, he hurried back to the dormitory, saying that he had taken too many days off and needed to go back to work to earn money.

At this time, the little girl followed Zhang Jing closely like a little tail, not leaving her side. Zhang Zhi also came over and said with a smile: "Sister, you are finally back. Now I need to have a good rest. I'll ask you to take care of my precious daughter for a few days!"

Zhang Jing shook her head with a wry smile, then hurriedly unloaded the various gifts from her luggage and began distributing them methodically. Even the smallest child, Little Dumpling, was not left out; he received a small surprise of his own. Seeing her family's delighted faces as they received their gifts, Zhang Jing felt a surge of pride in her heart, congratulating herself for having restocked her supplies at the airport in time to purchase these gifts.

The gifts I brought back this time were truly dazzling! All sorts of exquisite items filled the floor, like a small mountain of treasures. It was truly a dazzling array, with everything you could want.

The first thing that caught my eye was the exquisite silk pajamas from Shanghai held in the hands of my mother-in-law, father-in-law, and grandfather. The fabric was as soft and smooth as baby skin, embroidered with exquisite patterns. The meticulous stitching and every detail revealed the craftsman's meticulous care and exquisite craftsmanship. The moment I got my hands on them, I couldn't help but touch them again and again, unable to let them go.

Wearing that delicate cheongsam, Naituanzi looked like a fairy from a painting. The cheongsam was perfectly tailored to her petite frame, showcasing her playfulness and cuteness to the fullest. The pearls meticulously inlaid at the neckline and the delicate embroidery on the cuffs added a touch of elegance.

The little girl looked at herself in the mirror excitedly, her little face rosy and her eyes sparkling with joy. She kept asking everyone, "Do I look good?" When she heard Zhang Jing's praise, "You look good, so good that it's unbelievable!", she nodded contentedly, a bright smile on her face.

Zhang Zhi, contentedly, received a bottle of fragrant perfume and an antique round fan. The perfume exuded an enchanting fragrance that could intoxicate anyone with just a sniff. The fan itself was painted with exquisite landscapes, and its ribs were made of high-quality wood, giving it a rich, textured feel.

Each female family member also received a beautiful silk scarf. These scarves are colorful, some are simple and fresh, some are bright and eye-catching. Whether tied around the neck or used as a hair accessory, they can instantly enhance the overall temperament of the person.

Finally, Zhang Jing specially prepared three strips of Jinhua ham. These were truly rare delicacies! One was respectfully given to her mother-in-law as a token of filial piety; another was given to Zhang Zhi, hoping to strengthen their sisterly bond; and the remaining strip, of course, she kept for herself to savor. Imagine the delicious dishes that could be made with this Jinhua ham—it would surely be mouth-watering.

Everyone was content, except for the younger brother-in-law, who was dragged back home by the collar, looking miserable. It turned out that the mother-in-law felt that the younger brother-in-law wasn't diligent enough when accompanying her daughter-in-law on her errands. He just played around all day, completely lacking the sense of responsibility expected of an adult.

She believed that her brother-in-law was a child who didn't want to grow up and didn't know the importance of things. She had to teach him a lesson to make him understand what responsibility and obligation were.

Here, the adorable little kid hugged Zhang Jing tightly before going to sleep, blinked his big eyes, and said in a soft voice: "Aunt, I miss you so much! Next time you go to Shanghai, can you take me with you? Okay? I promise to listen to you and I can also help take care of my younger brothers and sisters." After that, he looked at Zhang Jing eagerly.

Zhang Jing couldn't help but laugh when she heard this. She gently stroked the little boy's head and replied softly, "Okay, as long as I have the chance to go out again, I will take you with me wherever I go. But you have to do what you say and take good care of your brothers and sisters. How about this, I will give you 5 yuan every month as a reward, what do you say?"

When Milk Ball heard this, he was so excited that he danced with joy. His little face was smiling like a blooming flower, and he cheered repeatedly: "Wow! That's great! That's great! Auntie, you are the best auntie in the world! I love you the most!" He even got up and kissed Zhang Jing, then lay down obediently, closed his eyes, and waited for Zhang Jing to pat him to sleep as usual.

After seeing the three little ones gradually fall asleep and their breathing become steady and even, Zhang Jing carefully stood up and turned to look at Achen beside her. She saw Achen staring at her with a burning gaze, his eyes full of grievance and concern.

Zhang Jing felt warm in her heart. She grabbed Achen's hand and asked softly, "Husband, you have worked so hard these days! Have you eaten well on time? Let me see if you have lost weight." As she spoke, she reached out to touch Achen's cheek.

Ah Chen quickly took Zhang Jing's outstretched hand, placed it on his chest and gently pressed it, smiling and saying, "I'm not thin, I eat well. I miss you too, Ah Jing. From now on, you must take me with you wherever you go! Otherwise, I'll be unhappy!"

"I promise you, I'll take you wherever I go from now on!"

Zhang Jing readily agreed. She found herself feeling like a scumbag, constantly being sued. Why did everyone feel so insecure? She'd only been away for a few days, yet she felt forced into a situation.

Life returned to normal, and the children adjusted to their mother's loving care. Zhang Jing, remembering Mrs. Xu and the room she hadn't cleaned, called a Shenzhen lawyer. After confirming that Zhang Jing had handled the funeral arrangements in Shanghai, the lawyer told her that Mrs. Xu had left a letter for her.

Zhang Jing said she didn't have time to go over, and the nursing home needed to clean the elderly man's room. Should he notify the elderly man's family in Shanghai and have them come over to handle the matter? The lawyer said Zhang Jing would be in charge of all this. He would send the letter by courier, asked for Zhang Jing's address, and then they hung up.

Zhang Jing received a letter from someone in the same city that day, but she didn't want to read it. Li Manyue called and told her that Zhang Jing had returned. They discussed what to do with the belongings in Mrs. Xu's room, saying that if she didn't want them, they could just throw them away. Zhang Jing thought about it and agreed to go over the next day to take a look.

After thinking about it, Zhang Jing opened the letter from Mrs. Xu:

"Xiao Jing, when you read this letter, I've already been to heaven! I've never told you that I'm a Christian! But those around me who share the same faith as me don't associate with me. On the contrary, you Buddhists are all so optimistic.

Forgive me for lying to you. I will confess my sins to the Lord. I was finally selfish for once and left all my assets in Shanghai to my only blood relative!

You can scold me, but I can't help it! Especially since I feel like time is running out. Even though we're godparents, and you often take care of me, I know you have your own life. I still feel lonely and isolated.

In this life, you're doing the right thing. Hurry and have a child. This is the only way to prove you've been in this world and left behind descendants! I regret not having your courage when I was young. If I could do it again, I would be just like you.

Don't resent me! Money is just material possessions; you can't bring it with you when you're born, and you can't take it with you when you die! I'm leaving my property to my niece, and as her heir, the cemetery will be managed by her and her descendants. This is the best way!

I asked you to handle my affairs after my death because I knew you would definitely send me to my parents. My niece's family can't do this!

Have you seen the gains in my securities account? This is my record, and I'm leaving it to you. One reason is to end our relationship, and the other is because I know you're not a very smart person. I really want to know how long it will take you to turn the money in your account into negative equity.

You're kindhearted and easily moved. Even when hurt, you never learn your lesson. My final lesson for you is this: always be wary of others!

They say leaving money to your descendants doesn't guarantee it will be kept. You have two choices: one is to hold on to it no matter what—I bet you can't resist; the other is to sell it and buy the stocks you like, thus destroying your money and shrinking it!

Don’t say I underestimate you. No matter what the result is, you will be exhausted in the end!

This is a test and also a hot potato!

I am curious whether your Buddha nature is stronger than that of my Lord?

As fate would have it, please help me deal with everything in the room! If you want some books, keep them. If you don't want them, donate them!

Don't miss me, I'm in heaven with my parents and I'm doing fine."

Zhang Jing finished reading the letter and let out a long sigh. This old lady Xu was smarter than she was. It seemed that she wasn't sad either. No matter what, she wouldn't end up like her, living a lonely life.

Zhang Jing burned the letter, not knowing how long in advance the old lady had prepared it. It turns out that unless they have Alzheimer's, the elderly can change their will at any time!

Zhang Jing asked Zhang Zhi to come over tomorrow to help look after the children while she went to clean up Old Lady Xu's things. Zhang Zhi became interested when she heard this:

"Sister, you have to look carefully. Open the clothes one by one and check if there is any money hidden in them. Do you have anything to put it in? Do you want me to get you a big bag?"
