Chapter: 4820
He thought that someone like Mei Yu Zhen, who has an iron heart and can place life and death outside herself, would be fearless for this lifetime.
Unbeknownst to him, she's not afraid of death at all, but most afraid of being poor.
However, in Manqian Mountain's heart, a fleeting excitement suddenly arises unawares.
He had already had some bad words for Mei Yu Zhen.
On one hand, this woman has absolute control over their small group, and they've never seen her with a good face every day, always scolding and yelling at them, even occasionally slapping or hitting them.
On the other hand, it's because she earns much more than he does.
Sometimes, seeing others earn money is harder to bear than losing oneself.
I'd rather lose 100 myself than see someone else make 10,000.
Manqian Mountain is just like that.
Although he too is a person earning money in America, his wife, children, and grandchildren all rely on him for living expenses back home, but his family is not considered wealthy by national standards.
He has given away so much cash to his family over the years, estimated to be around 1.5 million RMB or so.
In his view, this amount of wealth is enough for his family's livelihood, but it won't show off like Mei Yu Zhen does, so even though Mei Yu Zhen's family has been caught, his own family will definitely be very safe.
Thinking about this, he felt even more pleased and couldn't help but chuckle to himself: "Ah, Mei Yu Zhen! Ah, Mei Yu Zhen! You're such a motherf**ker today! In the past, you always scolded us like dogs, making us feel so humiliated. Now, how come you've lost that arrogant air? I'm not ashamed of your age; I want to hook up with you temporarily and settle our physical needs. But you look down on me? How come you're not gloating now?"
It's said that a dead friend doesn't leave poverty behind.
Manqian Mountain has this kind of mentality.
And he felt, originally he was still very jealous of Mei Yu Zhen earning so much.
But now, Mei Yu Zhen's assets are cleared out in an instant, and I've surpassed her instantly, in a crushing manner.
With a pleased heart, Manqian Mountain pretended to comfort Mei Yu Zhen: "Mei Sister, as the saying goes, wealth is external, just as long as you can leave a green hill behind, even if there's no firewood to burn. Since you're now in America and can't be caught by domestic police, why not wait for another opportunity? You'll definitely have another chance!"
Mei Yu Zhen's eyes were vacant and lifeless, her whole person was listless and pitiful as she choked back tears: "You make it sound easy, but my 20 years of hard work is gone in an instant! This means all I've done before has been for nothing! If I want to earn back the losses, I'll need at least another 20 years. I'm already over 50, and I should be retired by now!"
She slapped herself twice on the face as her emotions got the better of her: "I spent 20-odd years working hard, only to find out that it was all for nothing... 20-odd years! What did I want? What did I want?"
On the side, Manqian Mountain quickly cautioned: "Mei Sister, don't be impulsive! We still have business to attend to. Your top priority is to earn as much money as possible right now, or you'll be in trouble when your husband and son come out. You won't be able to regroup then!"
Manqian Mountain also nodded: "Yes, Mei Sister, for washing money crimes, the most they can sentence you to 10 years. If you behave well, they might reduce the sentence, and you'll be out in your 40s or 50s at most, which isn't too bad. And you still have eight grandkids, oh no, nine grandkids... You need to get your act together for them..."
Mei Yu Zhen listened to this, suddenly snapping back to reality, mumbling to herself: "Yes... I need to earn money... and even more money... If I can earn enough, I'll migrate to Southeast Asia and then gradually bring all my grandchildren over..."
As she spoke, she quickly got up and urged, "Get on, hurry up! We need to get to Mexico as soon as possible!"
Manqian Mountain nodded hastily, just about to help Mei Yu Zhen back onto the car, but his own phone suddenly rang. JrNovels.com
