Landlady who likes to hoard land

Chapter 62 The Sense of Security Money Brings

What kind of life did she lead before? How could she have given her child the idea that they couldn't survive if they ate a few good meals?

She regretted that she had reflected on her actions too late, as it had already had a negative impact on her child.

Fortunately, she met Yaoyao and still had a chance to make amends.

Xu Wen is too sensitive and lacks a sense of security.

She was no different; she also suffered from a severe lack of security.

She doesn't know what kind of environment children grow up in that leads to a lack of security, but she and Xu Wen were clearly influenced by their families of origin.

Eating a delicious meal makes me uneasy, wearing a beautiful dress makes me feel unworthy, and I feel anxious and uneasy about anything expensive. Subconsciously, I think, "How can I use such good things? How can I eat such a sumptuous meal?"

Even though she's earning her own money now, she still doesn't feel secure. She needs to buy land and check her bank account balance to feel more at ease.

It's just a little more comfortable.

The reason for this is that they feel they are not good enough and therefore do not deserve good things. It is a form of self-denial.

All of this is caused by their bad past experiences, which give them a false sense of their own worth.

Wang Chengyu specifically searched for information on this topic.

This is a psychological issue. When bad things happen, we realize that how others treat us is completely beyond our control, which makes us uneasy.

To combat this intense insecurity, we attribute the cause to ourselves in an attempt to regain a sense of control, even if it's not our fault.

This effort to gain a sense of control can burden us with responsibilities that are not our own.

Unconsciously, this put a lot of pressure on myself.

Clearly, her daily arguments with Xu Jianren made Xu Wen uneasy and gradually created pressure, which he ultimately attributed to himself, making him bear responsibilities that were not his own, feeling that he was responsible for the family's lack of wealth.

Therefore, he felt he didn't deserve to eat lavish meals every day, nor did he deserve to own valuable things. He worried that it would cause his parents to quarrel again and make his already impoverished family even poorer.

Wang Chengyu felt sorry for Xu Wen's sensitive nature, and also for herself. She felt that her parents' misfortune was because she was incompetent, her brother's bad life was because she could not provide help, and her younger sister's unhappy marriage was also because she could not be her support.

She desperately wanted to cry, but she couldn't. She had to force herself to hold back her tears.

She had to make a change, change herself, and change Xu Wen, so that he would understand that her quarrels with Xu Jianren and the family's lack of wealth had nothing to do with him.

She must make them feel safe.

This is not something that can be changed overnight, but she must do her best to change it.

"Xu Wen, your midterm exam results are out. Mom is giving you and your brother a special reward for your hard work in studying."

While cooking, Wang Chengyu checked the messages in Xu Wen's class group and found that the teacher had reminded parents to check Xu Wen's grades on the Aixue website.

She then remembered that Xu Wen and his classmates had finished their midterm exams several days ago.

As she expected, Xu Wen's grades in all subjects were quite good. His only weakness was math, but now that his math score had improved, his grades in all subjects looked much better. However, there was still room for improvement.

"When did you get out? How did I do on the exam?"

Upon hearing that his results were out, Xu Wen couldn't wait to ask. All other thoughts immediately vanished from his mind.

All he wants to know right now is how his grades went. He thinks he did pretty well on the exam, but he's still a little nervous before the results are released.

"look by youself."

Wang Chengyu smiled and handed over the phone.

"Mom, how did I do on the test?" Xu Yao chimed in.

"You got all A's this time, which is great. Keep up the good work."

Elementary school grades don't have specific scores; they're graded using A, B, C, and D. A score of 85 or higher in a single subject is considered an A.

"I'm so awesome!"

Xu Yao was clearly pleased to hear about his achievement, and showed no humility whatsoever.

Xu Wen's face flushed slightly, and his eyes shone as if they held stars. He said excitedly:

"Mom, I did very well in my major subjects this time. I got 110 in Chinese, 120 in Math, and 100 in English. I got full marks in Math and English. My total score for the seven subjects was 720, which is only 40 points away from the full score of 760."

"Great! I'm in the top three now. My scores in the main subjects were high this time, so my ranking should go even higher after the grading."

Xu Wen was so excited that he danced around, his joy and pride evident on his face.

Wang Chengyu wasn't worried that he would become arrogant. Xu Wen's personality was such that even if he got full marks on all his tests, he would still worry about what would happen if he did poorly on the next test.

To put it bluntly, it means thinking too far ahead, lacking self-confidence, and always worrying that you are not doing well enough.

Xu Wen and Xu Yao have completely opposite personalities; one is pessimistic, and the other is optimistic.

Wang Chengyu often wondered why children born to the same parents could have such different personalities; it was truly perplexing.

"Brother, brother, I did well on the test too, all A's!"

Xu Yao was unwilling to be left out of this joy, so he quickly told his brother that he had also done very well on the exam.

"You are all great. Mom hopes you will keep up the good work and get even better results in the final exams."

Your task now is to finish the food on the table and eat!

Wang Chengyu put a piece of fish on each of the two brothers' plates and urged them to eat quickly.

"Alright... Meatball, here I come, I'm going to devour you!"

The two children cheered and laughed, picking up their chopsticks and attacking their favorite dishes.

"Little brother, this is delicious. Mom, do you know that you made so many delicious dishes as a reward for us because we did well on our midterm exams?"

Xu Wen asked again. He first picked up a piece of braised pork for Xu Yao, and then stuffed a piece into his own mouth. It was fragrant, sticky, and delicious.

"Xu Wen, Xu Yao, your good exam results are only one of the reasons."

Another reason is that Mom is earning money now; she can earn 500 yuan a day.

Wang Chengyu grinned and waved one hand in front of his two sons.

"You can earn 500 yuan a day! Do you think Mom can earn that much in a month?"

"Five hundred a day, that's fifteen thousand a month if we calculate it as thirty days a month, wow, that's so much!"

Xu Wen's mind always reacted faster than Xu Yao's, and he figured it out in an instant.

"(⊙o⊙) Wow, so much! That's enough for us to eat lots of delicious food."

Xu Yao's mouth dropped open in astonishment. In his eyes, over ten thousand yuan was a huge sum of money. He could buy so many delicious things with that much money!

"Yes, this money is enough for you to eat and drink well. In the future, if you want to eat or buy anything, just tell Mom. As long as it's within a reasonable range, Mom will buy it for you."

Wang Chengyu reassured his two sons.

She is now increasingly adept at controlling spiritual energy. No matter how difficult the blockage, she can clear it in a few minutes. In order not to arouse suspicion, she always uses the persistence technique to perform the procedure for a full hour.

Even the most difficult physiological swelling, like that caused by stones, she handled quickly.

Most importantly, it doesn't hurt when she does the massage, and many mothers are eager to recommend her.

She currently offers in-home services to many postpartum women, serving five or six during the day and sometimes going out to serve one or two more after dinner.

A few of these customers are introduced by the store, but most are referred by other customers. On average, she can earn 300 yuan per order, and can earn 1,500 to 2,000 yuan a day.

Wang Chengqing has now been introduced to their store as an apprentice and has become Zhao Jing's apprentice.

Because of Wang Chengyu, Zhao Jing taught him very diligently.

Worried that saying too much would scare her two sons, since she had never earned a penny before, she figured that around 500 would be an acceptable amount for them, so she said she earned 500 a day.
