One villager said, "They shouldn't have been given a single penny. One caused my uncle's leg to be broken, and the other just watched helplessly as my uncle starved and froze without even getting a meal. They're like two animals."
The village chief was also taken aback by Li Mo'er's extravagant gesture. He asked, his lips trembling, "Girl, how much do you think you want to give your uncle as a thank-you fee?"
Li Mo'er said loudly again, "I want to give Grandpa Zhang a thank-you fee of 10,000 yuan. At the same time, I want to hire Grandpa Zhang as the president of my Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital."
Just then, an older woman outside, who looked like a "deputy head of an intelligence station," asked while eating sunflower seeds, "Hey girl, besides that ten thousand yuan, how much would you pay my uncle a month to be the director of that hospital for you?"
A number of "intelligence station members" around them chimed in, asking, "Yeah, yeah, how much do you pay us a month? We can't work for you for free!"
Li Mo'er held up one finger and said, "One thousand a month, plus a year-end bonus."
"Hiss!" There were gasps of cold air both inside and outside the house, and then we all started talking about it.
The "deputy head of the intelligence station" who was eating sunflower seeds said, "My goodness, a thousand a month! These days, factory workers only make fifty or sixty yuan a month, and six or seven hundred a year. My uncle can earn a thousand a month? Is he lying?"
Just then, the villagers on the outskirts gasped in surprise, and those near the windows and doors turned to look outside.
The tall, handsome man took a transparent plastic bag off the helicopter; the bag was bulging with money.
The villagers had never seen so much money before, and they all stared at the bag, swallowing hard.
Zhao Yunting walked into the house through the path that the villagers had spontaneously made way for him. His expression was calm, and he was not afraid at all that any villager might be tempted by the money and try to snatch the bag from his hand!
Once inside, Zhao Yunting handed the bag to Li Mo'er, who took it, placed it on the kang (a heated brick bed), held the bottom two corners of the bag with both hands, turned it upside down, and pulled out stacks of brand-new cash that were spread out on the kang.
Li Mo'er's money is all in ten-yuan notes. It is said that the country has already issued fifty-yuan notes, but she doesn't have any yet.
Bundles of banknotes were spread out on the kang (a heated brick bed), creating a huge visual impact. The villagers' eyes almost popped out of their sockets, and many were wiping away their drool.
Li Mo'er counted out ten stacks and said, "Grandpa Zhang, this is ten thousand. Thank you for helping me when I was in trouble."
Old Zhang was about to refuse when Li Mo'er stopped him with a look. Completely bewildered, Old Zhang had no choice but to shut up. He thought to himself, "This girl is definitely up to something. Oh well, let's see what tricks she's up to."
Li Mo'er then counted out twelve stacks of banknotes and said, "This is your salary for this year. Your bonus will be settled at the end of the year."
With two stacks of money left, Li Mo'er gave Li Jun a wink, and Li Jun immediately understood. He said to Old Man Zhang, "Master, I've been studying these past few years and haven't had time to visit you. This money is a token of my respect, and you must accept it!"
The villagers buzzed with discussion again, saying that Old Zhang had done a good job taking on this apprentice, giving him two thousand yuan as a tribute right away.
Some people counted on their fingers, gasped, and said to the people next to them, "My goodness, Uncle Zhang really made a killing today. Including the thank-you gift, the advance salary, and the filial piety gift from his apprentice, it adds up to 24,000 yuan. He's now a 10,000-yuan household."
A woman nearby said with a hint of schadenfreude, "Hey. Do you think Uncle's eldest son and daughter-in-law will regret it? After all, they haven't come to take care of him for a single day since his leg was broken. Now that Uncle has suddenly become rich, won't they come to claim their share?"
The person next to him who was being asked scoffed, "Is there even a question? She'll definitely come. Just wait and see, it won't be long before his eldest daughter-in-law shows up."
Sure enough, less than five minutes later, a villager said, "They're here, they're here. His eldest son and daughter-in-law have brought their child."
The crowd automatically parted to form a path, all looking at the eldest son and his family with mocking expressions.
