On the 20th day of the twelfth lunar month, Jiang Duoduo got up early in the morning to clean the house at the call of her mother Chen Shuyue.

Jiang Duoduo originally wanted to be lazy and just hire two cleaning ladies to come and clean up. But Ms. Chen Shuyue disagreed, saying that she had nothing to do and why should she spend the money.

Jiang Duoduo had no choice but to be drafted into the army. At this moment, he was mopping the floor in the living room.

Jiang Niandi originally wanted to help wipe the table or something, but Chen Shuyue forcefully called her back to the room and made her lie on the bed.

They said the floor had just been mopped and it would be terrible if she slipped.

Jiang Duoduo also agreed and asked her sister to go back to her room and lie down.

Originally, Chen Shuyue planned to go back to her hometown with Jiang Duoduo to celebrate the New Year, because all their relatives were there.

On the second day of the first lunar month, the families of the eldest daughter, the second daughter, and the third daughter would all come to Chen Shuyue to pay New Year's greetings.

There are other relatives as well. Although we don’t contact them much on a normal basis, we still have to visit them and have dinner with them during the Chinese New Year.

But now that the fourth sister Jiang Niandi is back, she can’t go back to Daxi Village in this condition.

Not to mention that Jiang Niandi herself doesn't want to go back, Chen Shuyue won't let her go back either.

A girl in her twenties got pregnant before marriage, and the father of the child did not show up. In a big city like J City, people would point fingers and gossip about such a thing, let alone in the countryside.

By then, there would really be a crowd of people everywhere in the village, and even in front of Chen Shuyue's house, eating melon seeds and gossiping.

Since the fourth child cannot go back to his hometown for the New Year, Chen Shuyue and Jiang Duoduo naturally will not go back either.

The fourth child is due at the end of next year, and Chen Shuyue doesn't dare let the fourth child live in J City alone as a pregnant woman.

If anything were to happen, it would be too late for her to regret.

Jiang Duoduo fully agrees with not going back to her hometown for the New Year.

When I go back to my hometown for the New Year, apart from the second day of the first lunar month when my three married sisters come to pay New Year's greetings and we have a happy meal together, there is really nothing else to look forward to.

It is always her mother Chen Shuyue who does all the work for the big dinner at the Jiang family. She spends money and works hard but gets no thanks. Whoever wants to eat this New Year's Eve dinner can eat it, but Jiang Duoduo doesn't want to eat it anyway.

Ring, ring, ring… Ring, ring, ring…

Just when Jiang Duoduo had finished mopping the floor and wanted to lie down on the sofa in the living room to rest for a while, the cell phone on the coffee table rang.

I took the phone and saw that it was a WeChat call from Shen Chunfen.

Jiang Duoduo rarely talks to her on WeChat since the last time she was shown off her wealth while riding in her car.

What could be going on when she called me on WeChat?

Jiang Duoduo pressed the answer button, said hello, and lay down on the soft sofa.

"Duoduo, is it holiday? Oh, sorry, I almost forgot, don't hotel waiters have holidays during the Chinese New Year? But even if they don't have holidays, they should have a day off, right?"

"I recently moved to a new house, and I'd like to invite you, Zhang Qin, Sun Xiaoyan, and Wang Fang to come over the day after tomorrow for a get-together. They all said they're free, but you're the only one missing. If you're not free the day after tomorrow, you'll have to ask for leave! The five of us haven't been together for a long time."

Jiang Duoduo thought, we don't seem to know each other very well! Why did you invite me to your new home?

Although I was thinking about it, I still had to perfunctorily say, "I really have something to do the day after tomorrow. How about you guys get together first? I'll invite everyone out for dinner next time when I have time."

"No! Just ask for a leave! Duoduo, you won't even give me this little face! At worst, I can give you the salary for your leave! This little money is not even enough for my son to have breakfast."

Jiang Duoduo was so angry when Shen Chunfen said this that she wanted to laugh.

Just when I was trying to find an excuse to refuse directly, a WeChat message suddenly popped up on my phone.

"Duoduo, are you free the day after tomorrow? Chunfen invited us to have dinner at her new home. I just returned to Daxi Village yesterday, and my mom told me that Chunfen is very rich now and has bought a big villa in town. I agreed, and you should be free too! In fact, the person I want to see the most is you."

When Jiang Duoduo saw the WeChat message Zhang Qin sent her, she was a little amused.

Ugh……

Jiang Duoduo sighed inwardly, thinking that even if it was for Zhang Qin, she would just agree reluctantly!

"Duoduo, are you listening to me? Why don't you tell me whether you are coming or not?"

Seeing that Jiang Duoduo didn't respond, Shen Chunfen was a little unhappy and asked in a bad mood.

"Come! I'll definitely come the day after tomorrow. Oh, my mom asked me to do some spring cleaning, so I won't tell you for now. When you have time, send me the address of your new home."

Jiang Duoduo didn't want to listen to Shen Chunfen continue to show off her sense of superiority as a rich person, so she found an excuse to hang up the phone.

"That's right! You can never make enough money, so you still need to rest. Come to my house for lunch the day after tomorrow. My aunt's cooking skills are really not to be trifled with. They're even better than those hotel chefs."

"Okay, I'll definitely go there early to try your aunt's cooking!"

Jiang Duoduo quickly finished her words and hung up the phone, otherwise Shen Chunfen would start talking about the nanny, the child, and finally her husband.

After hanging up Shen Chunfen's voice call, Jiang Duoduo immediately sent a WeChat message to Zhang Qin, telling her that she had time the day after tomorrow and had agreed to have dinner at Shen Chunfen's house.

After receiving Jiang Duoduo's WeChat message, Zhang Qin immediately created a small group.

There are only four people in the group, Zhang Qin, Jiang Duoduo, Sun Xiaoyan and Wang Fang.

Zhang Qin: Ladies, we're going to Chunfen's house for dinner the day after tomorrow. What should we buy to bring back? Everyone, come out and give us some ideas!

Wang Fang: How about we buy her a money tree?

Sun Xiaoyan: Money trees are quite expensive, one seems to cost more than a thousand. If we want to give one away, we must give two. The total amount is a bit high, so let’s just go and have a simple meal.

Jiang Duoduo saw that they were discussing what to give as a gift, so she came out and said something.

"I think it's okay to give away money trees. If we split the cost between the four of us, each person would only be around 600 or 700 yuan. I have no objection."

"Jiang Duoduo, I didn't expect you to be so generous. I heard from Chunfen that you work as a waitress in a hotel. Six or seven hundred is a few days' salary for you, right?"

After Sun Xiaoyan finished speaking, she also made an expression of covering her mouth and laughing, as if she was mocking Jiang Duoduo for pretending to be rich.

She knew Jiang Duoduo's family situation. Five sisters were raised by one mother. When she was in elementary school, she had to pick up her sister's old clothes to wear.

Although Jiang Duoduo has graduated from university, so what? She is still working as a waiter in a hotel.

Although she works in an electronics factory, she earns a lot! She earned 12,000 yuan this month during the Chinese New Year holiday!

"I just mentioned it casually. If you think it's inappropriate, then change to something else. I don't care!"

Among these people, Jiang Duoduo only has a good relationship with Zhang Qin. Wang Fang and Sun Xiaoyan liked to tease her behind her back when they were in school.

Now Jiang Duoduo is too lazy to talk to them anymore, since they are all just useless classmates anyway.

"It doesn't matter, Jiang Duoduo, you're so arrogant! You're talking as if everyone knows what your family's financial situation is like!"
