BXBX NOVEL Chapter 222
She went home with a full wallet while covering the grin on her face.
She found out that children really were so easy to trick.
In comparison, she was such a bad kid. She often intimidated the other children, very deserving to be a villainess!
She looked at her points in the panel, feeling both happy and sad.
The happy thing was that there was no longer any need to worry about not having any points to use. The sad thing was that although children were easy to trick, it wasn’t easy to use the same trick twice.
Sigh, they’re so fragile.
But if she used them frugally, these points could still last for a while.
Originally, she wanted to use them for studying, but she felt that they should be used where they were most useful. Although learning how to be evil was important, there were bad guys in front of her right now. If she used all her points to exchange for Mama Rong’s Acupuncture Technique card, when bad guys came to trouble her uncle, she would not have the item cards necessary to deal with them.
After hesitating a bit, she decided to save them for later.
When she got home, she also purposely asked Jiang Xing to verify her guess.
“Uncle, is the bad uncle from last time still here? Did he leave?”
Jiang Xing said, “He’s still here. Why are you mentioning him?”
“I’m afraid that he will cause trouble.”
Jiang Xing rubbed her head and smiled, “You don’t need to worry about the affairs of adults. They said he contracted some strange illness and hasn’t been discharged from the hospital. The doctor said that he was fine, but he kept insisting that there was something wrong with his body. Even after multiple checks they didn’t find anything, but he insisted on being hospitalized. Isn’t this just asking to be sick when you’re not?”
Jiang Xiaoman chuckled.
She knew what had happened, but didn’t say anything.
Not only children were easy to trick, but adults too!
They were so frightened with just this much?
How weak.
Maybe this was what Grandma meant when she said that if you did not do bad things, you wouldn’t be afraid of ghosts knocking on your door in the middle of night.
But now that she knew Liang Yuanqing was not going to be discharged from the hospital or trouble her uncle, Xiaoman was relieved.

After Jiang Xing inexplicably appeared in the newspaper last time, his company’s business improved a lot. He felt that good things really had to be loudly broadcasted so people would know. After all, nowadays even the ones with fragrant wine were still afraid of being located in a deep alley; perhaps, no one would know how good your stuff was1.
He always had a flexible mind, but he didn’t use it in the right situations before. Now that he was dedicated to making his family prosperous, his mind also became much clearer.
He had an idea.
Jiang Xing found Xiaoman and said, “Xiaoman, Uncle wants to invite your classmates to the farm. Let’s come and play together and have an autumn picnic. Take some pictures, look at the scenery and gather some materials to write a small essay when you go back.”
This way, not only could he fulfill his previous good intentions to donate a playground, but the children would also promote the farm for him when they went back. Of course, the children couldn’t spend money, but their parents could.
When the parents gossiped, one would tell ten and ten would tell a hundred. Soon, a lot of people would know about it. Who knew, perhaps after he donated to the children’s autumn trip, the principal would be very happy and let him give a lecture, giving him the chance to experience the honor of educating people.
Jiang Xing was happy even if it was just a superficial effort.
It could be said to serve multiple purposes.
Jiang Xiaoman thought for a while and thought that it was very good. The teacher said that the school would organize an autumn trip, but the location had not been decided yet, so the children were told to come up with suggestions. If Uncle could invite the children over to play, then it would be great. But there was just a little something that she didn’t understand.
“Uncle, since when do we have a farm?”
The farm had just been built recently. After all, he could not resist the temptation of raising pigs, so he opened a pig farm.
Since he was opening a pig farm, then he might as well make an ecological farm.
There were plants to be planted and pigs to be raised.
It had fruits, vegetables and cereal. It was all natural and free of pollution, but it was expensive.
To attract guests, he built a small farmhouse resort nearby.
Of course, there were not many guests coming right now. Jiang Xiumei was worried about her pigs, so he had to come and take a look everyday to relieve her worries. She basically lived there alone right now, only coming back home at night.
Their family was fated to work hard, and never forgot to raise pigs wherever they went.
Jiang Xing said, “Our family has opened a new pig farm.”
After thinking about it, Jiang Xing said, “The sow is about to give birth to her first child.”
No wonder Jiang Xiumei ran there every day recently.
When Jiang Xiaoman heard it, she immediately said ‘wow’, clapped her hands, and said excitedly, “Uncle, I’ve wanted to raise pigs since a long time ago!”
Now, she had finally realized her dream!
Uncle was really amazing!
She loved Uncle the most!
Jiang Xiaoman hugged his arm and said, “Is the sow’s baby cute?”
“Cute and delicious.”
“Huh—” Jiang Xiaoman fell into deep thought for a while. She originally wanted to name them Big Flower, Flower Two, Flower Three, Flower Four etc., but decided not to in the end.
If you gave them names, then you would grow attached. If they grew up and finally became plump enough to be on the dining table, she would have to cry everyday.
Jiang Xiaoman said, “Alright. Then we’ll go to the farm.”

Footnote:
1. The original idiom is that if you’re selling a fragrant wine, it doesn’t matter if your shop is inside a deep alley because the smell would bring the customers to your place anyway. If you have quality, customers would come on their own.
