I couldn't take it anymore; when I went home for Chinese New Year, the family genealogy book ha

The Jiang family's electric tricycle looked so small and ridiculous in front of that mountain of express deliveries.

Let alone once, even if you made ten round trips, you probably still wouldn't be able to finish.

"Old Jiang, Xiuying, don't worry!"

Just when Jiang Jianjun and Wang Xiuying were at their wits' end, a neighbor, with whom they had a good relationship, came back from the fields carrying a hoe. Seeing the scene, he walked over with a smile.

"It's no big deal! If everyone lends a hand, we can get back!"

"Yes, yes, yes! Stop watching! Jiang Chen is such a promising kid, he's brought honor to our village, it's nothing for us to help out!"

In no time, the villagers who had initially just been watching the spectacle began to respond.

Some people went home and brought their own handcarts, while others simply carried a box and left.

In no time, a large "transportation army" formed on the path from the village entrance to the Jiang family's old house.

Everyone was holding or carrying a box printed with various brand logos, their faces beaming with excitement, as if they were watching a spectacle with a vengeance.

This scene is even more lively than a traditional opera performance during the Chinese New Year!

After nearly an hour of fussing, the mountain of packages was finally all moved into the Jiang family's courtyard.

The once spacious courtyard was instantly filled to the brim, leaving almost no room to put one's feet down.

Looking at the magnificent scene in the courtyard, Wang Xiuying felt both heartache and joy, her heart filled with mixed emotions.

"Everyone's worked so hard! Don't go, come in and have some water!"

Wang Xiuying warmly greeted the neighbors who were helping her, and then turned to go inside to pour tea.

"Xiuying, what kind of water do you want to drink?" The neighbor who had been leading the group earlier joked, pointing to a half-open cardboard box.

"Your son bought so much delicious food, aren't you going to open a box and share some with everyone?"

The box had a corner chipped during transport, and a rich, sweet fruity aroma was wafting out, making one's mouth water.

"Yeah, yeah! Let's broaden our horizons and see what big city bosses eat!"

The crowd joined in the commotion.

"Look at all you people!"

Wang Xiuying burst into laughter, and her earlier feeling of being a little distressed about the money was instantly replaced by a huge sense of pride.

Since everyone has seen it, let's just be generous this once!

She walked up to the box with the broken corner, and without the slightest hesitation, with a "rip," she tore the entire box open with her bare hands!

next second!

All the noise in the courtyard came to an abrupt halt!

All eyes were fixed on the opened box, and everyone's face showed a shocked expression as if they had seen a ghost!

Inside the box, neatly arranged, were rows of plump, glossy, dark red fruits.

The fruit, though called a cherry, was much larger than anyone could have imagined!

Each one is about the size of a free-range egg from the countryside!

"Oh my god..."

An older woman who was standing nearby couldn't help but gasp in surprise, her voice trembling.

"What...what is this thing? How did these cherries grow so big? Did they eat some kind of magic pill? They're bigger than eggs!"

"This color is so bright! It's like a black gemstone!"

A collective gasp of astonishment rippled through the courtyard.

Just then, a young man who had come with the adults to watch the excitement suddenly took out his phone, took a picture of the box of cherries, and then let out a scream that was more exaggerated than anyone else's!

"Holy crap! I know what this is now!"

He was so excited his face turned red, and pointing at the box of cherries, he loudly explained to everyone:

"These are Chilean cherries! Top grade! Look at the diameter, they're definitely 4J grade!"

"I saw this at a high-end fruit store in the city last time! They sell them by the piece! Just one of these costs over ten yuan!"

"This box...this box alone would cost at least two or three thousand yuan!"

"What?!"

"Several thousand yuan for a box?!"

"Over ten yuan a piece?!"

The young man's words were like a bombshell, exploding loudly in the crowd!

The villagers who were just marveling at the size of the cherries now look at the box of fruit with completely different eyes!

That wasn't fruit; it was a box full of bright red banknotes!

Wang Dama, who was the first to start the commotion, had two of the pills stuffed into her hand by Wang Xiuying, and was about to put them in her mouth.

Upon hearing this, her hand froze in mid-air, and she was completely petrified.

She looked down at the two "golden nuggets" in her palm, each bigger than an egg, and felt like she was about to have a heart attack.

Just these two pieces cost the price of a bowl of braised pork?

She almost choked on the cherry on the spot!

Wang Xiuying's heart was bleeding when she heard this, but since things had come to this point, she had to save face!

She forced a hearty smile, waved her hand, and addressed the still-stunned crowd:

"Hey! What are you all standing there for?"

"It's just some fruit! My son bought it randomly outside, just so everyone could try something new!"

"Take some, everyone! Don't be shy! Grab a handful each! If that's not enough, I'll open another box!"

Wang Xiuying's words brought everyone back to their senses from the shock.

Since the host has said so, there's no need to be polite!

In an instant, everyone rushed forward, carefully picking up one or two pieces from the box, as if they were handling fragile treasures rather than fruit.

"Sweet! So sweet!"

"I've never eaten such delicious cherries in my life!"

"Jiang Chen is really something! He's living like a god!"

Praises and envious remarks rose and fell.

This completely confirms the news that the Jiang family has "made a fortune"! They even eat fruit costing thousands of yuan a box—how much money must they have in their pockets? It's unbelievable!

Just as the courtyard was bustling with activity, an untimely, sour voice came from the doorway.

"Oh, you've gotten your hands on some gold beans now? You all act like you've never seen anything like it before."

When everyone turned around, they saw Aunt Liu Cuifen leaning against the door frame with her arms crossed, her face full of jealousy and disdain.

She was also drawn over by the commotion, and seeing this scene, she felt a surge of bitterness that almost overwhelmed her.

She wanted to go up and take a couple to try, but she just couldn't bring herself to do it.

All I could do was say sarcastically from the sidelines:

"Eating such expensive fruit, aren't you afraid of getting stomach aches and intestinal rot at night?"

"In my opinion, this is just putting on a show! These days, young people will do anything, even max out their credit cards online, just to save face!"

However, this time, her sarcastic remarks were like a pebble thrown into the ocean, not even causing a ripple.

Nobody paid any attention to her!

Everyone was busy tasting the ridiculously expensive cherries, praising Jiang Chen for being filial and capable.

Standing there, watching Wang Xiuying surrounded by a crowd, her face beaming with joy, Liu Cuifen felt like a neglected clown, completely isolated from this festive atmosphere.
